Previously on Why?
IMADE
I got us into this mess, it is the little I can do
WEMIMO
Of course, whatever I make, you get the larger share
IMADE
There is no need for that
WEMIMO
Yes, there is…. I want to build something, Imade, I want to build something on your back, I don’t know where it is going to lead too but I just need you to keep designing and I will do the rest of the work
EPISODE 16
Bebii as in a doll
INT. IMADE’S HOUSE- MORNING
Imade
stretches herself on the bed as she sits on the bed. She looks down and finds
the mat Wemimo slept on gone.
She gets
out of bed and goes out of the room to the corridor where Bankole is busy
washing beans for Akara
IMADE
Hey, have
you seen Wemimo?
BANKOLE
He has gone
IMADE
Gone where?
BANKOLE
To the shop
IMADE
This early?
BANKOLE
He has been
gone for over an hour
IMADE
Really?
BANKOLE
Yeah
Imade sighs and she enters
her room back
INT. IMADE’HOUSE-NIGHT
Imade dozes
off as she tries to read and when her head touches the table, she wakes up
again. She stands up and starts to pace. Few minutes later, she sits down back
on the chair
The door to
her room opens and she see Wemimo come in with a surprise look on his face
WEMIMO
You are
still awake?
IMADE
Yes
WEMIMO
Why?
IMADE
I was
waiting for you
WEMIMO
Why?
IMADE
I haven’t
seen my roommate in four days, if I am not worried, I am not a good person
Wemimo looks perplexed not
expecting the title
IMADE
I am sorry
if…
WEMIMO
We are
roommates, there is nothing to be sorry about
Wemimo sits in the bed and faces
her
WEMIMO
Roommate, I
am fine, it is just that there is a lot of work to do
IMADE
You are not
the one sewing, why is there so many work for you?
WEMIMO
Because I
am the one doing the ironing the clothes, fixing the buttons, attaching the
stones, making sure the stay glues well to the clothes, you know for a simple
style, your designs takes time to sew
Imade laughs
IMADE
I am sorry
WEMIMO
Don’t be,
Aunty Bebii said children’s readymade takes time anyway
IMADE
Who is
Aunty Bebii?
WEMIMO
The woman
we are renting her shop
IMADE
Ohh…. But
Aunty Bebii… Bebii as in a doll
Wemimo laughs
WEMIMO
Yes
IMADE
That is one
peculiar name… I hope Ann is not disturbing you
WEMIMO
I haven’t
see Ann in three days
IMADE
She haven’t
been here too, so I thought she would be with you
WEMIMO
She is
working with her dad on a case
IMADE
Yeah, she said
something about that…. So you stayed to this time working?
WEMIMO
Yes
IMADE
And Aunty
Bebii allowed you two to stay?
WEMIMO
Yes and she
stayed with us
IMADE
To this
time? Does she not have a home?
WEMIMO
Of course
she will have, maybe there is no one to go home to
IMADE
She has no
husband?
WEMIMO
She talks
about her family in the village but nothing about her husband
IMADE
Maybe she
does not have one, it makes sense why she will stay with you guys to this time
of the night… So how many clothes are remaining?
WEMIMO
About
three?
IMADE
That is
still a lot
WEMIMO
Yes, I
might not come home tomorrow
He stands up from the bed
WEMIMO
You should
go to bed
IMADE
Maybe I
should come with you tomorrow
WEMIMO
And do
what?
IMADE
Work, of
course
WEMIMO
And who
will help Maami in the evening?
IMADE
Bankole
will
WEMIMO
Bankole is
writing his NECO, you should let him study in evening by helping your mom
IMADE
You are
building a future for us, I don’t just want you to do it alone
WEMIMO
I am not
alone, designing alone is a big help which you are fantastic at, so stick with
that for now. Let me take care of the hard work and you help Maami when she
needs your help
IMADE
Alright
Imade stands up and goes to
the bed
WEMIMO
Goodnight
IMADE
Goodnight
Next on Why?
WEMIMO
Are you
kidding me, Ann?
ANN
What? You
asked me to find him a place and I did
WEMIMO
Leave me
aside, what about his grandma? How can you expect him to go to Lagos and leave
his sick grandma here in IB?
ANN
What can I
do? It is not like it is my fault that no fashion house in IB needs a tailor
