Why? 2 || KINGS 121

Previously on Why?

BANKOLE

Ann, pleas…

ANN

I know you think you saved your little family but you didn’t. You just postponed the inevitable. I want you to remember today because everything I told you outside, it is going to happen and when it does, I want you to know it is your fault

EPISODE 121

Jealousy aside

BACK TO PRESENT

Bankole who suddenly remembered Ann’s word signed deeply with his hands on his face. Jo looks up in concern from the document she is reading when she hears his guilt laden sigh

Hey! Are you okay?

BANKOLE

This is my fault, everything that is happening is my fault. If I had just let them go their separate ways when they wanted, none of th…

Bankole, you can’t let what Shehu said get into your head

BANKOLE

It is not just Shehu… Ann predicted that this was going to happen a long time ago and she told me to remember that it was my fault

She is just a bitch

BANKOLE

But she was right though, it was my fault

Hey, you don’t know that

BANKOLE

But I do, if they had gotten divorced then, they would be with other people and be leaving their best life but I just had to ruin it because I wanted a father

Hey! you can’t put all of that on yourself, from the little I got from what happened years ago, your sister and her ex-husband had multiple chances to go their separate ways but they didn’t. So don’t put their mistakes on yourself

BANKOLE

But at that moment in the hospital, they really wanted it and they would have gone through with it if I didn’t interfere

Jo looks frustrated at her failure to convince him otherwise. So she dropped the document in her hand and faced her husband fully

Okay see it like this, if they had gotten divorced, would you have gone to Harvard law?

BANKOLE

Yes, I would, Ann would have made sure of it

The scowl on Jo’s face deepens

I hate how you talk about her with so much affection, like she could do you no wrong but when in fact she is the devil

She turns back to work

BANKOLE

You are right though

That your sugar mummy is a devil, yes, I know that

BANKOLE

No, I mean… you are right about Wemimo King, I don’t hate him

Jo looks up at her husband in concern

Babe, I know that and I also know that what you hate is the fact that he left and didn’t look back

Bankole sighed deeply

But can you blame him, what you sister did is something no woman should ever do to her husband?

BANKOLE

But he forgave her once

Just because he was magnanimous to forgive her the first time does not mean he will the second time, after all he is human and human have their limits… enough with the chit chat let get back to work

BANKOLE

Jo, we are going to lose this case

O ye of little faith!

BANKOLE

This is not about faith or belief, it is about the evidence and they all point to her as the culprit

She gave him a skeptical look

BANKOLE

What? You think she did it?

Wait, as her lawyers we are meant to set her free which I am totally done for but are you sure she didn’t do it?

Bankole looks at her in surprise

BANKOLE

Are you kidding me?

What? You never asked her if she did it, not once

BANKOLE

Because I know she didn’t do it but… after two years with her and I can’t believe you would think she did it

You just asked me to look at the evidence few minutes ago, this is me looking at both the evidence and the motive. That asshole wanted to destroy her and your sister had everything to lose. I would have done the same if I was in her shoes

BANKOLE

You really believe she did it

I just looked at….

BANKOLE

Enough with the argument, all that matter is that we have the same goal

Exactly

BANKOLE

At the rate we are going, we are definitely losing the case

We just need to get witnesses to ta…

BANKOLE

But we are not getting it, so we need to move on from that

So what do we do next?

BANKOLE

We find a way to knock out the evidence

We visited that once but it didn’t work

BANKOLE

It would have worked with Ann

Jo become angry

I can see you are doing your possible best to piss me off

Bankole becomes annoyed

BANKOLE

Can you put your jealousy aside for a second and work with me?

You think this is just jealousy because I think you just implied that she can do a better job than me

BANKOLE

I didn’t mean that… but maybe, I do mean that

Jo scoffs

BANKOLE

She is among the first three high ranked lawyers in the country, so how can you better than her?

Fuck you and the reason why she is among the first three is because she is dirty

BANKOLE

Yes, she plays dirty but who knows that?

I know

BANKOLE

You knowing, does it leave a dent on her success?

So what? Do you want to bring her in on the case because the last time I checked, she is against your sister and even if you manage to change her mind, I will divorce you if….

Bankole cuts in sharply

BANKOLE

Enough with your threats, I am not asking her help but I am going to call Brother Wemimo and ask for his help

Jo looks at her husband in confusion

What?

BANKOLE

I need his help

No one knows where he is, no one has spoken to him in two years

BANKOLE

That is not true, Aunty Bebii is contact with him or else, she won’t be running KINGS

Say she is, I don’t think she will tell you

BANKOLE

No, she won’t and that is why I am going to call him

This is just a waste of time, he won’t pick your call

Bnakole picks his phone up

BANKOLE

Just because he is not talking to anyone does not mean I shouldn’t try and reach out to him

He stands up from his chair and walked past his wife. He tries to open the striding door that leads to the balcony of his house

Say he picks your call, there is nothing he can do at this point except bribe the judge. Is that what you want?

Bankole scoffs and turns to his wife

BANKOLE

Actually yes, because unlike you, I believe my sister is innocent and if getting Brother Wemimo to bribe a judge or threaten the jury is the only way to set her free, you can be rest assured that I am going to do it

He opened the sliding door and the moment he did that, a gush of fresh cool air blown at him before he stepped into out to the balcony. He snorts hard trying to calm himself down while looking at full moon outside. From his balcony, he can see the different houses in Ibadan with their light on and different cars passing on the street.

He presses some buttons on his phone and bring it to his ear. After a few second, a voice informed him that the phone is switched off. He opens his Whatapp application and decide to leave him a voice note

BANKOLE

Hello brother Wemimo, I know it has….

Next on Why?

IMADE

I needed to talk to you

WEMIMO

About what?

IMADE

Us?

WEMIMO

What is there to talk about, Imade, we are not getting a divorce anymore

"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x"x'x"x"x

Wemimo is alive, are you surprise? So if Wemimo is alive, who is died? Why is Wemimo gone? Why is he not speaking to anyone? What exactly happened between Wemimo and Imade? Do you want the answers? Then keep reading.

Due to some unforseen circumstances, I was unable to publish yesterday. I am sorry for any inconvenience this might have caused you.

If this is your first time on my blog or your first time reading about Why? This episode is not for you. You need to start from Why? 1, The Beginning of a Cloudy end.

Please and please let not forget that if this is a Korean movie, the actress I feel will deliver Imade 's role flawlessly is Seo Yea Ji, for Wemimo is Song Joongi Ki, for Ann, we have Yu In-young and for Bankole, my choice will be Park Bo-gum. I know that it might not be possible but a lady can dream like right

I am not the owner of the pictures I used, so I give credit to their rightful owners
