WEMIMO
Am no longer in the mood for it

We are suppose to go sightseeing

If you want to stay back, be my guest. I will make arrangement for your stay but as far as I concerned, I am going back home tomorrow after the church service and not a minute after
EPISODE 166
What
about KINGS?
INT.
NIGERIA- EVENING
Imade and Wemimo are in a private jet heading home.
They both sit far apart in their own thought. The pilot’s voice comes from the
speaker telling them that the plane is about to land and they should fasten
their seat belt.
About fifteen minutes later, the couple walks out of
the plane and walks towards car where there is a driver here waiting for them
DRIVER
Good evening sir and ma, how was your trip?
WEMIMO
It was good
They enter the back seat of the car
WEMIMO
Before we go
home, we will make a stop somewhere
DRIVER
Where sir?
WEMIMO
Ring road
DRIVER
Alright sir
IMADE
That is the other side of where we live, where are we
going?
WEMIMO
You will see
The driver drives them away
INT. SOMEWHERE AT RING ROAD, IBADAN- NIGHT
Wemimo and Imade goes into a very big complex. After
few minutes of walking, Wemimo stops in front of sublet, he opens it and they
enter.
The sublet is designed like a boutique. Imade looks
around with curiosity
IMADE
What is this place, Wemimo?
WEMIMO
This will be the first of our many stores
IMADE
Really?
WEMIMO
Yes, everything we produce will be available in this
store
IMADE
I didn’t even know you were working towards that
Wemimo walks to one of the shelf and carries the white
shoe box that is on it. He handles the box to Imade and she opens it
immediately. On seeing the beautiful black heels inside, she smiles brightly
IMADE
This is beautiful
WEMIMO
That is the first shoe KINGS created, you should have
it
IMADE
Thank you
He
watch her wear the shoes and walk with it too
IMADE
It is comfortable too
WEMIMO
Good to know you love it… there is something else I
want to talk to you about
The smile on her face goes away as she focuses on
Wemimo
IMADE
What is it?
WEMIMO
I sent your designs to a fashion school in Paris
IMADE
(Surprised) What?
WEMIMO
It was accepted
IMADE
(Baffled) What are you talking about?
WEMIMO
I need you go to Paris for two years and study fashion
designing properly
IMADE
Please tell me you are joking
WEMIMO
Am not, it is for your own good
IMADE
(Disturbed) Is this about yesterday? Are you doing
this because of what happened yesterday?
WEMIMO
Did you forget the part where I said it is for your
own good?
IMADE
Well, that happened yesterday and all of a sudden I am
been exiled
WEMIMO
If that is the reason, then I am childish and Imade,
how can I send your design to Paris yesterday and get a reply today… it is not
possible
IMADE
How long have you been working on it?
WEMIMO
Two years
IMADE
Before Wemi died?
WEMIMO
Yes, the plan was for you to go when he clocks three.
That way you can go without having to worry about him… but he is not here
anymore, so Imade, you need to go
IMADE
Without having to go to any school, I am still good,
Wemimo
WEMIMO
Exactly my point, without been tutored, you are
racking million. Imagine been tutored, you will be unstoppable
IMADE
What about KINGS?
WEMIMO
What about KINGS?
IMADE
How will you guys cope without me? There will be no
one to design anything
WEMIMO
We have other designers, you said it yourself, their
designs are good
IMADE
What about you?
WEMIMO
I will be fine without you, Imade
IMADE
Can you stay without having sex for two years?
Wemimo
burst into laughter
WEMIMO
Come here
He
pulls her into his arm, Imade moves her hand round him. He pecks her head
affectionately
WEMIMO
I was without sex for three years, what is another two
years?
He
pecks her again
IMADE
If I leave now, when are we starting the family you
talked about?
WEMIMO
I did say that will happen in three to five years
IMADE
I don’t have a choice right?
He pulls her from his arm and looks into her eyes with
warmth
WEMIMO
It is for your own good, Imade
She
removes his hands from her body
IMADE
I don’t want to go
He
sighed deeply
WEMIMO
You are going, Imade
IMADE
No, am not
WEMIMO
You love designing, why won’t you want to learn it
properly?
IMADE
Because it is a hobby, designing is a hobby for me. I
want to be a guidance counselor
WEMIMO
I want you to go, please. It will do you a lot of good
which mean it will be good for KINGS. For me, please go
Imade
contemplates in her mind
IMADE
Fine, I will go
WEMIMO
Thank you
IMADE
But under one condition
WEMIMO
What is it?
IMADE
You and Ann visit me every three months
WEMIMO
Ann is in law school, she won’t have the time
IMADE
She is almost done
WEMIMO
After that is NYSC and then, her career as a
lawyer kicks start. I don’t think she will have the time to visit you
IMADE
Then you come
WEMIMO
I am a bus…
IMADE
It is either that or I am not going
WEMIMO
Let make it every six month then
IMADE
Including Christmas and New Year
WEMIMO
Akara Carn…
IMADE
You don’t need to be here for Akara Carnival, Aunty
Bebii can handle it for you. I am not spending Christmas and New Year alone
WEMIMO
Okay… every six months, including Christmas and New
Year
IMADE
Good
WEMIMO
And about yesterday?
He brings her into his arms and looks into her eyes
WEMIMO
Yesterday, I learnt that you are never going to be in
love me ever
IMADE
Wemimo…
WEMIMO
And I am going to stop wasting time on making you love
me, instead, I am going to be a good husband to you. Imade, I am going to do
everything in my power to make you happy, in return I ask that you stay
faithful to me. I don’t think I have the power in me to forgive you again if
you cheat on me
Imade
pecks him on his lips
IMADE
I promise to stay faithful
He
smiles and kisses her some more
WEMIMO
Let go home and enjoy the remaining days of our
honeymoon
They
both leave the store
