Previously on Why?
WEMIMO
But I still need you sign a five year contract
IMADE
I don’t want to
WEMIMO
I know but I need assurance that you will stay with Kings for five years
IMADE
And after five years?
WEMIMO
If you want to leave Kings, I won’t stop you because by then, I am sure I won’t need your services anymore. So until then please keep designing and keep being the boss
EPISODE 94
Cheer up
EXT. IMADE AND WEMIMO’S NEW
HOUSE- NIGHT
Wemimo
enters a compound through a gate and before him stand a building which has four
flats. Wemimo walks to the side of the building and goes up the stairs to the
one of the flats.
As he removes his shoes, he hears Imade's soft voice from inside
IMADE
Open
the door gently, he is right behind the door
Wemimo
smiles when he hears this and he opens the door gently to see his son sitting
behind the door. Wemi opens his scattered white teeth the moment he sees
Wemimo.
Wemimo
bends and carry him, raining his small face with kisses and the young one
rewards him with giggles. He walks into their living room with Wemi in his arms
to meet Imade who is studying at the dining room
WEMIMO
Hey!
IMADE
Hey!
WEMIMO
Maami
and the otherd?
IMADE
Maami
is in her room with Iya Agba while Bankole is probably studying in his room…
How was work today?
WEMIMO
Fine…
school?
Imade sighs
IMADE
School
is not my favourite place right now
WEMIMO
To
think you were whining about going back to school during the three month strike
IMADE
I
know but the lecturers are just bombarding us with so many things and there is no
spacing… do you know the number of tests I have to write next week and our exam
is starting in two weeks’ time
WEMIMO
I
am sorry you are going through this but cheer up, you are almost done
IMADE
I
can’t wait for the day I will graduate
WEMIMO
I
know you are busy right now but can you find time to come to KINGS
IMADE
Why?
WEMIMO
The
dresses for the fashion show is ready, they need you to check it for
corrections
IMADE
I
don’t have time for that right now
WEMIMO
Come
on Imade, just to check some clothes
IMADE
After
everything I just told you, you should understand my situation
WEMIMO
(His voice gets louder) You
are the CEO of KINGS, you have responsibility to that place too, if my memory
serve me correctly, you haven’t been there in a month
IMADE
That
is because I am busy… I have school
WEMIMO
Do
you know they are talking about replacing you?
IMADE
Replacing
me?
WEMIMO
They
are asking me to get more designers
IMADE
Well….
I have no objection to that, my designs can’t always be top notch
Wemimo looks disappointed
hearing this which Imade notice
IMADE
What
is it?
Wemimo put
his son on the floor and the little one immediately starts to crawl around
while his father stand and paces with frustration written on his face
IMADE
Come
on Wemimo… what is wrong?
Then he stand still
WEMIMO
Are
you seriously leaving KINGS after five years?
IMADE
Actually
it is four now, a year is gone
He scoffs
WEMIMO
Seriously?
IMADE
I
am saying the truth
WEMIMO
Whatever
but please clear your Saturday and Sunday next week because you are going to
Abuja next week
IMADE
Two
days? That is not possible, you know how busy I…
WEMIMO
I
don’t want to know, Imade but you are going to clear those two days because the
point of the fashion show is to introduce you to the world
Imade stands up immediately
IMADE
I
understand, believe me I do but you need to understand me too. I am in my final
year and I have a carryover already, I can’t afford to screw up… asking me to
donate two days is a lot for me considering the situation am in right now
WEMIMO
(Getting angrier) Did
you just say donate, Imade?
IMADE
I
just need you to understand my situation
WEMIMO
Your
employees have been working day and night for this fashion show for months and
two days is too much for you to donate
IMADE
Well,
they are getting paid for it
WEMIMO
And
you are getting paid for a job you are not doing?
Imade looks pissed
IMADE
How
dare you say that to me?
WEMIMO
Am
I wrong?
Imade raises her voice
IMADE
I
design everyday Wemimo, every fucking day, inspiration, no inspiration, I have
to design because you need it
Wemimo raises his voice
WEMIMO
Is
that your only job?
At this
point, Wemi burst into tears as his parent stare each other down intensely.
Imade goes to carry him from the floor and tries to pacify him but to no avail.
Wemimo stretches his hands out to her
WEMIMO
Give
him to me
Imade obliges and Wemimo
proceeds to rubbing the little boy’s back with a bright smile on his face. A
minute later, the boy stops wailing.
The smile on his face
disappears when he looks back at Imade
WEMIMO
I
remember asking you to be the face of KINGS, your job is not only to design, so
I am asking you to do your fucking job
Wemimo
takes his leather hand bag from the dining and leaves the dining room with Wemi
in his arms. Few seconds later, Imade hear a loud banging of the door and she
finches
IMADE
Jesus…
is he that mad?
IMADE
About the contract?
WEMIMO
It
was stupid of me to wrong about something that is happening in four years’ time…
you might change your mind about it
IMADE
Or
I might not
