Why? 1 || TBOACE 70 (Chapter Finale)

Previously on Why?

QUEEN

I was starting to see potentials in you, the potential I love to see in my children, the potentials that are needed to lead The Company into the next level of greatness and I was ready to groom those potentials but is this what you amount to, leaving your family because of a girl

ANN

Wemimo, she is not worth it

CHAIRMAN

If you walk out that door with that girl and you marry her, consider yourself disowned, I will remove your name from the family register

EPISODE 70

Yes, I do

INT. MARRIAGE REGISTRY- MORNING

Before the marriage official stands, Imade in a short white gown and Wemimo in an oversized suit and standing behind them are, Madam Babade, Bankole, Ann and two other people

Imade and Wemimo holds hands

MARRIAGE OFFICIAL

Do you IMADE JANET BABADE take WEMIMO BAMIDELE AROTILE to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish. Until death do you part?

IMADE

Yes, I do

The marriage official faces Wemimo

MARRIAGE OFFICIAL

Do you WEMIMO BAMIDELE AROTILE take IMADE JANET BABADE to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish. Until death do you part?

WEMIMO

Yes I do

MARRIAGE OFFICIAL

With the power vested in me, I pronounce you two husband and wife, you may kiss the bride

Imade looks uncomfortable as Wemimo brings her closer and pecks her head

BACK TO PRESENT

INT. PRISON- IN THE DEAD OF THE NIGHT

Inside her prison room, while others are sleeping, Imade cries bitterly as she looks at a picture. In this picture is an older looking Wemimo with one arm round her heavily pregnant self, while the other hand rest on a double baby stroller. Two four year old identical girls, each tightly hug their lower torsos with bright smiles on their faces

The family of six and half looks very happy in the picture. Imade hugs this picture tightly as fresh tears rolls down her eyes

IMADE

I am so sorry, Wemimo, I am so sorry

______________________________________________________________

Wemimo said they will be fine but will they? Will he find a place in Imade's heart? Are these two even ready for marriage? how are they going to survive on their own without Wemimo's parent? In what state is their relationship with Ann? How will Bankole save his sister from been convicted as a murderer? I guess you are going to find out in the next part of Why? which is titled KINGS.

Why? 2 || KINGS will be starting on this blog on the First of August, 2022. Why 2 depicts the early years of Wemimo and Imade's marriage and please do not forget that Imade is on hook for a murder she claims not to commit and everything that happened in Why? 1 contributed to her situation.

Excerpt from Why? 2

ANN

If Imade is going to be the boss, you know you need her right?

WEMIMO

I know

ANN

How long how are you going to keep fighting with her?

WEMIMO

I told you not to meddle in my marriage

ANN

I am just worried

WEMIMO

Stay out of my marriage, it is none of your business

ANN

You are happy your husband did not consummate the wedding

IMADE

I mean, I am with Micheal’s baby, isn’t that a taboo?

ANN

That is true…. but Imade, this baby does not belong to Micheal anymore

IMADE

What?

ANN

The moment you married Wemimo, that baby becomes his

You know, you and your sister are not exactly different, she spent her whole life pleasing her husband, doing what he wanted and you are doing exactly the same thing, pleasing a woman who is not yours

BANKOLE

That is not fair

Maybe but I am right. That woman stole your dream from you, if she had helped your sister two years ago, you would be a named partner now and not fighting an impossible case. If she loved you, she won’t try to make you turn your back against your sister. She has been using you your whole life, stop mistaking that for devotion

TOLANI

Your family?

WEMIMO

Yes, my family. School will be resuming next session in about a month, I need to pay Imade’s school fees and my school fees too. We will need money for books and every other things needed. I need to put food on the table and we are expecting a baby. So, sister please, help me. You are the only person I know will help me

WEMIMO

Please tell me you didn’t sell your designs, Imade

IMADE

You need the money

WEMIMO

So, you sold your design, did I even ask you for it?

IMADE

You don’t have to, I wanted to help

WEMIMO

How many designs did you sell to get this kind of money?

IMADE

Does it matter?

WEMIMO

Imade, answer the fucking question, how many did you sell?

ANN

You and Imade are two people that should never be together but here you are together. Still, you have to make it work, don’t just be a husband who only provides, make her see you as a man too

WEMIMO

You don’t have to worry about us, we are friends, we are going to be okay

ANN

No, you won’t be. Trust me, you will want more from her and it saddens me that you might not get more

IMADE

Okay, so what do you want to talk to me about?

WEMIMO

Our future

IMADE

Our future? What about it?

WEMIMO

We got married in a haste and we didn’t talk about how our lives will be, how we are going to survive

WEMIMO

You what?

IMADE

I know how they must be feeling, have been with my baby for only a short time and it will kill me if anyone takes him or her away from me but I did that to the father who raised you for 15 years, I can’t imagine how sad he must be, his heart must be breaking

WEMIMO

You what? Four months pregnant and you think an encyclopedia of parenthood

IMADE

Why can’t you understand what I am trying to do here?

WEMIMO

Why should I? You are just crossing your boundaries

WEMIMO

The next time you do things with Imade behind my back, things you know I will frown at, we are going to have a problem

ANN

I understand that you are mad that we didn’t keep you in the loop but those designs are hers to sell

WEMIMO

It is not just about the designs

ANN

Then what is it about?

WEMIMO

It is about selling the designs to an Omoloja. Ann, they forgot she existed, they didn’t even know that she is keeping the baby, now you two going to her, puts her back in their radar… Imade told me she offered her money for the baby and to ask for more when she needs it, what do you think will happen when Micheal finds out about the baby which he will?

WEMIMO

If we go to court, what are my chances of getting custody?

ANN

Custody? He is the father, Wemimo and with his family’s influence, Micheal will crush you in court

WEMIMO

Ann, I can’t lose my son, I just can’t

ANN

If this is about Imade, she is not going to leave you even if Micheal gets custody, Maami made sure of that

WEMIMO

It is not… it is not just about Imade. He is my boy… I have been in his life from the very beginning, I changed my life for him, I don’t care if Micheal is his sperm donor, hell will freeze over before I let him take my boy from me
