Previously on Why?
WEMIMO
You all seem to have forgotten that KINGS was built on Imade’s back, and without her, it won’t have existed
ANN
You don’t know that
WEMIMO
Oh! I do and just because she is not involved in the day to day activities does not mean she is not the most important person in KINGS…
WEMIMO
Now everyone, listen up. This have gone for far too long and it has to stop. Imade is my boss, your boss, our boss and I won’t tolerate any disrespect towards her anymore
EPISODE 144
Like
the boss’s boss
EXT.
KINGS- EVENING
Imade walks to the front yard of KINGS with her cross
bag over her shoulder and opens her mouth in awe when she sees the changes that
have been made. She walks closer to the builders who are building the
foundation to the new factory
IMADE
He was not joking when he said there has been changes
She walks inside looking around, sound of sewing
machine wheeling is loud and people are walking up and down, people she does
not know.
RECEPTIONIST
Ma’am, you cannot be here, there is a waiting room for
clients, I will have someone come see you
IMADE
I am not a client
RECEPTIONIST
Then why are you here?
IMADE
I am here to see Wemimo
RECEPTIONIST
Do you have an appointment?
IMADE
No
RECEPTIONIST
You are not a client and you have no appointment, I am
sorry but you have to leave
IMADE
Wait, I need to…
As the receptionist tries to walk Imade out, Dupe sees
Imade struggling with receptionist
DUPE
Sister Imade
She runs to Imade and forcefully removes the
receptionist’s hand from her body
DUPE
What are you doing?
RECEPTIONIST
She is not a client and she just waltz in here without
an appointment
DUPE
That is probably because she owns the place
The
receptionist looks confused
RECEPTIONIST
What?
DUPE
She is Imade King
The
receptionist widens her eyebrow in shock
RECEPTIONIST
Lik… ahem like the boss’s wife
DUPE
Like the boss’s boss, the Imade King
The receptionist turns to Imade immediately with her
head bowed
RECEPTIONIST
Oh! I am so sorry ma'am
IMADE
It is fine, you don’t know me
DUPE
Is this the way you treat other people?
RECEPTIONIST
I am so sorry
DUPE
The boss will hear about this
IMADE
It is okay, she was just doing her job
Imade
turns to the receptionist
IMADE
It is fine, go back to your post but please be gentle
with strangers
RECEPTIONIST
Yes, ma’am
Imade
leads Dupe as she looks around
IMADE
Everywhere looks different
DUPE
Yes, there has been some major changes around here
IMADE
Yeah!
DUPE
I am so happy to see you Sister Imade, I never thought
you were coming back from what I heard Sister Ann say
IMADE
I never thought that too
DUPE
The last time I saw you was at Wemi’s funeral, I was
unable to meet you then. Sister Imade, I am so sorry for your loss
IMADE
(With a soft smile) Thank you… now, how are you?
DUPE
Have been good
IMADE
I am always seeing Dunsin with you, you two are like
five and six, why is he not with you today?
DUPE
Dunsin has gotten admission into school, we don’t see
each other anymore
IMADE
Wow, which school is that?
DUPE
Your brother’s school, it was like they both planned
it
IMADE
Bankole didn’t tell me anything, I am sure you will
still see him during his school break
DUPE
Yeah but we are not together anymore
IMADE
Oh… I am sure you will find someone else soon
DUPE
Yeah
Someone
called out for Dupe in a loud voice
DUPE
I am sorry, I have to go
IMADE
You can go, I am sure I still know my way around here
DUPE
See you later then
Dupe leaves and Imade finds her way upstairs. On
getting to the corridor that leads to Wemimo’s office. Imade finds Bintu,
Tolani, Onome and Aunty Bebii clustered at the entrance
IMADE
What are you people doing?
They get scared and they fall on each other. They
stand up, adjust themselves and open their mouths in shock when they see Imade
AUNTY BEBII
Imade!
IMADE
(With a bright smile) hello
BINTU
What are you doing here?
IMADE
(Chuckles) Am I not welcomed here anymore, because the
last time I checked I am still the CEO?
Bintu
scoffs
BINTU
In the name only
IMADE
What?
Aunty
Bebii glares at Bintu
AUNTY BEBII
It seems you have forgotten Wemimo’s warning
Bintu
looks away
AUNTY BEBII
Forgive her rudeness
IMADE
I am kind of used to it now, where is Wemimo?
TOLANI
He is in a meeting, the first lady is here to see him
IMADE
First lady?
Tolani
nods
IMADE
Why is she here?
TOLANI
You should go in and find out
BINTU
What? She has no right in there
AUNTY BEBII
Are you kidding me?
BINTU
All I am saying is that she came to see Wemimo
TOLANI
Because of Imade and even if it is not because of her,
she is the CEO, she has every right to be in here… I thought Wemimo was blowing
the issue out of proportion but clearly there is a problem here. The moment the
first lady leaves, we are going to have a long talk, you don’t talk to your
boss this way, it is highly unprofessional
Bintu looks away reluctantly while Imade looks at them
in confusion
IMADE
Can someone tell me what is going on?
AUNTY BEBII
You should go inside
They make way for Imade and
she opens the door to the office.
Next on Why?
IMADE
Hey! I didn’t know you were back
ANN
You didn’t actually think I will miss convocation
IMADE
With law school and all, I thought you won’t be able to make it
ANN
Convocation happens once in a lifetime, I won’t miss mine the way Wemimo missed his
