Onihaxy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was what i heard while I was jerking back to life. I looked around and saw myself on a hospital bed,
“Pele onihaxy, sorry dear!!!” That was what I heard from betty as she held my hands.
Betty and a nurse were the only people with me. The nurse later left and I was alone with betty.
BETTY: ***rubbing my head and chest*** sorry dear.
ME:***looking into her eyes**, what happened to me?,
BETTY: you fainted for about 40 minutes.
ME: really?
BETTY: yes dear. Thank God you are awake now. Aunty Bimpe said you donated blood to daniella. Thanks so much dear.
ME: you are welcome.
BETTY: but wait onihaxy, how did you get here?, how did you know that daniella was admitted here.
ME: I tried calling your line this morning and it was picked by bimpe, she said there was an emergency and that daniella fell off the stairs, so I rushed down here. On getting to the hospital, I heard she needed blood so I volunteered to donate.
BETTY: that’s very kind of you, thanks so much honey **kissed me***
ME: where is bimpe? how is daniella?.
BETTY: well, daniella is recovering. Aunty bimpe and my brother are with her in her ward.
ME: you mean your brother is around?
BETTY: yes, about 10 minutes ago.
ME: ok.
BETTY: how about tomorrow’s test and interview, will you still be able to attend it?
ME: why not?, I’m fit and strong now.
BETTY: that’s my baby.
**still discussing and the door opens**
BETTY: **looked at the person who entered**** hi brother, onihaxy is awake.
HENRY: thank God, **stretched hand forward** I’m Henry.
ME: **strectched hand too for handshake**, I’m onihaxy.
HENRY: betty told me much about you. And I was told you donated blood for daniella. Thanks so much and Nice meeting you young man.
ME: you are welcome sir.
BETTY: where is Aunty Bimpe?
HENRY: she is with daniella.
BETTY: when will daniella be discharged?
HENRY: the doctor said in 2 to 3 days time.
ME: eeyah. May God heal her
HENRY and BETTY: amen oooo.
HENRY: betty, you can go home with bimpe, I will stay here over the night with daniella.
BETTY: I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying too.
ME: ***turned to Henry***, I won’t be able to stay sir, I have an appointment tomorrow morning and I want to go home and prepare for it.
HENRY: no problem bro, thanks so much.
**the door opened and bimpe entered**
BIMPE: onihaxy!!!, I’m happy you are awake now. How are you? ***walked closer***
ME: I’m fine.
BIMPE: thank God. Well doctor said you can go today that you are fine.
ME: sure, I’m going today, I have an…………
BETTY: ** looked into my eyes and blinked***
ME: ****i got the message that the job should be a secret **** I have an appointment tomorrow morning so I want to go home and prepare.
BIMPE: ok, in that case, I will drive you and drop you off, you know you are weak, you shouldn’t stress yourself so much.
HENRY: very nice idea sweetheart, very thoughtful of you.
BeTTY: ****looked uncomfortable****
HENRY: mr onihaxy, when next are wee seeing you?.
ME: can’t say, maybe tomorrow.
HENRY: we need to have a dinner together when we all return home, and we have one or two things to discuss. **looked into bimpe’s eye and smiled***
ME: ok sir..
Henry returned to daniella’s ward, betty, bimpe and I walked out of the hospital to the car park. I could read clearly the mood on betty’s face. She wasn’t just comfortable.
“Is this girl suspicious of something?”
I hugged her and we said we would chat on phone. I opened the side door of bimpe’s car and we drove off.
BIMPE: onihaxy, thanks so much for today, I never believed that you can be nice to me after all the things I put you through.
ME: you are welcome.
BIMPE: **parked after driving for some minutes**
ME: what’s wrong, is the car faulty?
BIMPE: no, I stopped it and parked.
ME: why?, what happened?.
BIMPE: I want us to discuss a very serious issue.
ME: ok, what is it?
BIMPE: you know things could be complicated here if we are not careful.
ME: I don’t understand.
BIMPE: you know I love my husband and he loves me too,
ME: ok,
BIMPE: the same way you love betty so much and she also loves you too.
ME: ok,
BiMPE: if this secret about daniella should leak out, we will all be in trouble, the four of us. And things will never be the same.
ME: and who is going to leak it?. You or I?.
BIMPE: I can never leak such secret. I have my marriage to protect. But I don’t trust you onihaxy. Not now that revenge is written on your face.
ME: I’m not going to leak anything also.
BIMPE: I want to be rest assured. So I want us to do something today.
ME: and what is it?
BIMPE: I want us to take an oath that our mouth will forever be shut on this issue.
ME: what!!!!!!, oooooath?? why will such idea flood your brain?.
BIMPE: onihaxy, can I have your phone please?.
ME: why?
BIMPE: I want to check something on it.
ME: *** handed over the phone to her****
BIMPE: ***scroll through it** I just want to be sure that this conversation is not recorded.
ME: ***laughed*** you are so funny bimpe.
BIMPE: onihaxy, Come to think of it, how do you think betty will feel when she finds out about this secret?.
ME: bad.
BIMPE: do you think she will still go ahead and marry you?
ME: No,
BIMPE: then what is so difficult about what I want us to do?, since its all about securing the person we loved?.
ME: but bimpe, we can still keep the secret without taking oath now.
BIMPE: yes, you are right. We are in good mood as at now. What about tomorrow?, I might offend you or you offend me and any of us might say it out of annoyance. But when we remember we had a oath, we would caution our mouth.
ME: ok, I agreed you are doing this to save yourself. What do I stand to gain out of all these things?, or will I just keep shut for nothing?.
BIMPE: **smiled**, onihaxy, I knew where you are driving at. But I can assure you that you will enjoy a life time benefit from it.
ME: benefits like what and what?,
BIMPE: wealth, money, and so on.
ME: and you expect me to trust you?
BIMPE: trust me this time onihaxy, I have no other option than to be good to you. Your seed is already with me.
ME: so are you trying to tell me that I should forget daniella totally?.
BIMPE: **placed her hands on my cheek** no now onihaxy. You will eventually settle down with betty, raise your own kids and have your own family. So why should daniella be a issue to us?. Just leave her to me and henry. But only you and I know that you are her real dad.
ME: hmmmmm,
BIMPE: onihaxy, common na. This thing isn’t difficult as you portrayed it. What if daniella never had an accident, will you ever find out?, NO!!. So please!!!.
ME: ok, first of all, I want to know. Why did you hide this secret from me all this while?, tell me.
BIMPE: ok, you remembered I told you that I have a boyfriend I was living with in Abuja when we met at the hospital in abuja?.
ME: yes.
BIMPE: it was this same henry, we never lived together though, but he came to visit me that weekend. I had unprotected se*x with both of you on the same day. His own was in the day while yours was during the night.
ME: ok, I’m listening.
BIMPE: so, when I was pregnant, it was difficult to figure out who owned the pregnancy. I told henry about it and he was happy and we got married thereafter.
ME: so how did you know that I own the child?.
BIMPE: when daniella was a year old, henry was sick and he was admitted at the hospital. So I took the chance to run a test on his blood. I did the same test on daniella and I realized that the blood group and genotype was different. That was when I was convinced that you are her dad. Don’t see me as a bad person onihaxy.
ME: hmmmmmmm.
BIMPE: if you could remember vividly, I stopped to be harsh on you at a particular time until you met betty?
ME: yes.
BIMPE: that was when I had the discovery. I felt remorse but I just don’t know how to tell you because I knew you were looking for every means to pull me down.
ME: hmmmmmmmmmm.
BIMPE: onihaxy, please I’m begging of you. Please, let’s make this oath. Please!!!!!,
ME: where are my credentials?, and what of my nudes in your custody?.
BIMPE: I will hand over your credentials to you today, infact, you are getting an automatic job from the family company, a car will be giving to you also, I will make sure I work everything out latest by weekend. Your nudes have been deleted long time ago, you can have my phone and go through it to be sure.
ME: hmmmmmm.
BIMPE: onihaxy please, I’m begging you for heaven’s sake, let’s do this oath please.
ME: ok, give me little time, let me think about it.
BIMPE: onihaxy, why are you prolonging this thing again?, its not worth thinking of, I’m not going to kill you, neither am I going to use you for rituals. Everything won’t take us more than 10minutes please.
ME: and where and how is the oath going to be taken?
BIMPE: at my Aunty’s place. Not too far from here.
ME: ok, I will call you when I get home and I will give you time.
BIMPE: huuuuuuuuh. Please now, let’s do this thing today. Please.
ME: I need to think it over first. I needed time.
***my phone rang and bimpe looked at the screen, it was a call from segun***
BIMPE: did you see my fear now?, your friend must not hear about this please. Ok, should I write a cheque for you?. Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
