EPISODE 73
Something is different
INT. IMADE’S HOUSE- NIGHT
Wemimo watches Imade few steps from her who is on the balcony her as she talks
to a six months old Wemi in her hands. Wemimo adorns a fitted three piece suit while Imade is in
a dinner gown.
He hears footsteps
and looks back to see Ann who is also in a dinner gown walking hastily to him
ANN
Wemimo,
what are you doing?
He puts his finger on his
mouth
WEMIMO
Shsssh!
Ann looks upset
ANN
Don’t
shush me, you are suppose to bring Imade down for her speech, people are
waiting for you
WEMIMO
Be
quiet
Ann looks confused
ANN
What
is the problem?
Wemimo sighs deeply as he
looks back at Imade
WEMIMO
(In a low soft voice) Imade
ANN
What
about her? She looks fine
WEMIMO
No,
she is not, something is different about her
ANN
And
what will that be?
WEMIMO
There
is always this fake smile plastered to her face but in corner, she cries when
she think no one is looking. She also talks less now, she spends more time
outside and comes home at odd hour
ANN
Why
are you surprised, isn’t that the Imade we know
WEMIMO
No,
that is not her
Ann sighs deeply
ANN
I
know, I am just trying to get you out of this mood but it looks you are not
getting out soon. So why do you think she is doing this?
WEMIMO
I
don’t know but I think she is trying to avoid me
ANN
Avoid
you?
WEMIMO
Yeah
ever since our marriage clocked one
ANN
Why
will she do that?
WEMIMO
Maybe
she looked at herself and discovered she is not with the man she loves
ANN
Oh
God! Wemimo, you are just being paranoid and now is not the time for that
WEMIMO
Then
explain the reason why she is going to that Catholic Church in Molete
ANN
Because
she wants to worship God
WEMIMO
All
the way from Moniya to Molete, there are other catholic churches around here
but she goes to the one in Molete, do you know how far it is and with a baby
too
ANN
Maybe
she likes the church
WEMIMO
She
is not even a catholic
ANN
She
might decide to become one, what is your point here, Wemimo?
WEMIMO
That
is the church where she fell in love with Micheal
ANN
What?
WEMIMO
That
is the church Micheal attended when he was in Nigeria. I believe she is going
here because she misses him. She can’t exactly go to his house anymore, the
church is the only place left of their relationship
ANN
All
you have are circumstantial evidences, it proves nothing
WEMIMO
Even
though she takes Wemi with her
ANN
She
wants her son to be religious, it does not prove that she is trying to avoid
you
WEMIMO
How
about the fact that she applied for school hostel?
Ann looks surprised
ANN
She
did?
WEMIMO
Yes
and she got it
ANN
What
about KINGS?
WEMIMO
She
said she is not needed in the day to day activities, so KINGS is not stopping
her
ANN
So
when is she leaving?
WEMIMO
She
needs Maami’s permission to leave
ANN
You
are her husband, all she needs your permission
WEMIMO
We
are under Maami’s roof, so her consent is needed
Ann looks at Wemimo
suspiciously
ANN
No,
her consent is not needed but you counting on her shutting Imade down
WEMIMO
I
can’t exactly tell her no but Wemi needs to grow up with his father and mother
under the same roof
ANN
It
is just a few months and she will be out of school
WEMIMO
Then
we have service, I won’t be surprise if she says she wants to go as far as Yola
to serve
ANN
Okay,
I believe you, Imade is trying to avoid you but you can’t dwell on that now.
You need to go downstairs and woo those investors who came here to invest in
you
WEMIMO
They
are here to donor
ANN
Donor
and also invest in you
Wemimo sighs deeply
WEMIMO
You
are right, now is not the time for this… Imade
Imade looks backs at them and
smiles brightly
WEMIMO
You
see that
ANN
(Scoffs) I
believe you now, that smile is fake as hell
Imade walks
to them with Wemi who makes grabby hands at Wemimo who carries him immediately
WEMIMO
It
is time to give your speech
IMADE
Okay
Imade walks away
with Ann at her side. Wemimo follows them downstairs but enters the shop where
a better looking Aunty Bebii who also is in a dinner gown with a wine cup half
filled with red wine
WEMIMO
Aunty
Bebii, please can you look after him
AUNTY
BEBII
Sure,
come here sweetie
She drops her cup
as she collects Wemi from him. Wemi burst into tears
WEMIMO
Sorry
buddy but I have to go
AUNTY
BEBII
He
is warm… hot actually
WEMIMO
He
is teething, Maami said it is okay for him to be running a temperature when
teething. He has taken medicine, so he will be okay
Wemimo touches his small
body with concern
WEMIMO
It
breaks my heart to leave him when he is not feeling fine
AUNTY
BEBII
Go
do your job, I will take care of him
WEMIMO
Thank
you
Wemimo pecks Wemi’s forehead
and he leaves
Next on Why?
WEMIMO
That
fake ass smile is creepy me out
ANN
I
will have a talk with her
WEMIMO
Don’t
make me regret talking to you, Ann. My marriage, my problem, I will deal with
it myself
