BACK TO PRESENT
EXT.
BANKOLE’S HOUSE- NIGHT
Bankole sits on the couch in the balcony with his
phone in his hands as he looks so deep in thought. He looks to his side when he
hears movement and sees his wife standing at the entrance of the balcony
JO
Has he answered you?
BANKOLE
No one has heard from him in two years, I know you
think it is stupid of me to be hoping he will answer
JO
Can you blame me?
BANKOLE
You don’t know him like I do
JO
Maybe but I know that he is a rich criminal and
forgiveness is not exactly an easy task for him
BANKOLE
Family is very important to him, he always put us
first no matter the circumstance
JO
Well, that is no happening anymore, your sister did
hurt him
BANKOLE
That is thing… no matter how hurt he is, he always
tries to keep the family together, like he did when Wemi died
BACK
TO PRESENT
INT.
HOSPITAL- NIGHT
Imade runs towards Wemi’s room with Wemimo and
Bankole. The trio suddenly stops when they heard the a loud painful wail coming
from the room. Imade looks at Wemimo terrified, they all look at the door but
hesitates to enter. Few seconds later, Ann comes out of the room with red eyes.
She sees the trio and she starts to sob
WEMIMO
No
ANN
I am so sorry, Wemimo
Wemimo moves closer to the door and sees the doctor
trying to removing Maami from Wemi’s still body on the bed. Bankole goes into
the room and tries to comfort his mother while the doctor walks slowly to
Wemimo at the door
DOCTOR EJIRO
Wemimo!
WEMIMO
What is wrong with him? Why is he not talking?
DOCTOR EJIRO
We tried everything but I am sorry, he is died
The doctor tries to touch him but he removes the man’s
hand from his arm
WEMIMO
You said he was fine, you said he was okay, you said
he can go home today. What happened between yesterday and today?
DOCTOR EJIRO
I am so sorry for your loss
Wemimo looks into the room as Bankole tries to comfort
his mother
ANN
I am so sorry
Wemimo looks at Imade who is still in shock and tears
floods down his eyes
WEMIMO
We lost him, I am sorry, Imade
Imade starts to panics and seconds later, she holds her chest as she gasp for breath. Wemimo runs to her and she falls into his arms before she
hits the ground unconscious
BACK TO PRESENT
INT. BANKOLE’S HOUSE- NIGHT
Still at the balcony
BANKOLE
Jo, we never expected his death, it came as a shock. It was a turbulent time for us all and to tell you how bad it was, I left home the first chance I got
JO
You resumed school?
BANKOLE
Everywhere was so sad, even in KINGS, the joy and
happiness that in that place was was sucked out by Wemi's death. Sister also left home
JO
She left her husband?
BANKOLE
Yes, the moment she left home, I thought for sure,
their marriage was over… well, left to my sister, it would have been but Wemimo
keep us together. He was a mess himself but he kept us together
Bankole
becomes so emotional
JO
Hey hey! You are shaking
She runs to him. Bankole tries to calm himself down
but is failing at it
BANKOLE
I know you just see Brother Wemimo as a criminal and
my sister as a dog who does what her master wants but those two have been
through a lot. Wemi’s death shook them deeply and they never got over his death
JO
I thought as much when I heard they were going to name
their last child, Wemi
He
holds unto Jo’s hand and caress
BANKOLE
(With warmth) The Wemimo King I grew up with will not just leave my
sister to rot in jail, no matter how much she hurt him. Yes, he abandoned her
because she hurt him deeply but I believe that if I keep reaching out to him,
he will come to her aid
JO
You believe this?
BANKOLE
Yes, I do
JO
Okay then, we will keep reaching out to him but we
can’t put all of our eggs into one basket, we need to try something else
BANKOLE
(Smiles) of course, thank you
Next on Why?
QUEEN
Wemimo, you don’t look okay
WEMIMO

QUEEN
No, you are not fine

QUEEN
You lost a child, of course you are not okay but you need to take care of yourself.
