Ann, answer my fucking question, did you see her?
ANN
No
WEMIMO
She won’t even come out of our bedroom, how can someone like that design anything?
ANN
Maybe if you ask her, maybe she will want to do it
WEMIMO
No one is asking her anything, Sister, you are going to call the First Lady back and tell her, we are not interested if she can’t make do with the designers we have

INT.
KINGS- EVENING
Inside Wemimo’s office, Wemimo raises from the couch the moment he sees his wife enter. He meets her halfway worried
WEMIMO
Imade!
IMADE
Hi
WEMIMO
What are you doing here?
IMADE
You too, why am I sensing that no one wants me here
anymore
WEMIMO
You have misunderstood my intention, I am glad that
you are here, it is just that you didn’t say you were coming over. Is
everything okay?
IMADE
Recently, it has been suffocating inside and
today, it was unbearable. I also wanted to show you something
As she dips her hands into her cross bag, the First
Lady stands up
FIRST LADY
Imade King!
Imade
looks up at the First lady
IMADE
I am so sorry ma’am for not greeting you, I didn’t see
you when I entered
FIRST LADY
It is fine, my husband blocked your view anyway
IMADE
I am so sorry if I interrupted your meeting but they
just kept telling me to come in
WEMIMO
(Groan) Fuck! Sister Tolani
FIRST LADY
It is fine, we were talking about you anyway. Please
sit
WEMIMO
First lady, she can’t…
The woman ignores Wemimo and focus all of her
attention on Imade
FIRST LADY
Do you remember me? I was one of the guests from last
year’s fashion show held at Abuja
Imade rack her brain for a few seconds before a bright
smile finds its place to her face
IMADE
Mrs. Nwachukwu
FIRST LADY
Wow, you even remember my name
IMADE
Of course, ma’am but I didn’t know your husband was a
presidential aspirant back then, congratulations on his victory
FIRST LADY
Thank you… Imade, I want you to design a collection
for my wardrobe
IMADE
Like every dress in your wardrobe?
The
First lady nods
FIRST LADY
Your husband here told me you are indisposed but
you look healthy to me
Imade looks at Wemimo before returning her gaze back
to the First Lady
IMADE
We lost a child few months ago
The
First Lady looks so surprised
FIRST LADY
What? You have a child?
IMADE
Had but yes, a son
FIRST LADY
Oh my God! I didn’t know. What happened?
WEMIMO
He was sick
She
held both their hands
FIRST LADY
I am so sorry for your loss
IMADE
Thank you ma
FIRST LADY
How are you two now?
WEMIMO
We have had better days
IMADE
Ma’am, I will design it for you
WEMIMO
Imade, no
FIRST LADY
You should listen to him, you need to take care of
yourself, losing a child is never easy
IMADE
I am fine
Imade dips her hand into her bag and brings out a
sheet of paper, she hands it to Wemimo
IMADE
I wanted to show you this
Wemimo opens the sheet of paper and sees a design
of a gown
IMADE
(With a bright smile) I am back, Wemimo, I am back
WEMIMO
Are you sure about this?
IMADE
Absolutely
Wemimo
turns to the First Lady
WEMIMO
She will do it
The
First Lady smiles and then brings out a file from her handbag
FIRST LADY
Look through the contract and let me know if you
accept the conditions
IMADE
Alright ma
The First
Lady stands up, Wemimo and Imade follows her out
Next on Why?
IMADE
Hey! I didn’t know you were back
ANN
You didn’t actually think I will miss convocation
