Dapo came back from work, Lovelyn welcomed him and gave him food to eat, Love where is Dupe and my sister, she didn't tell me she was going back today, Dapo said. She left before I came back from shop, Lovelyn said.

Dapo stared at her saying, just like that , did you people fight, it wasn't really a fight, she brought up this yesterday issue insulting me, holding my shirt, she explained everything to Dapo.

Hmm, that's serious, why did you not call to inform me, am sorry sweetheart, I thought it was an empty threat, ok no problem, I think we need to let her be, let her do anything she wants with her daughter, Dapo said, eating his food.

Lovelyn was surprised with her husband's response, she said in her mind, I thought he was going to hit me, my husband is becoming matured , she smiled, Dapo cuts in, what have you been thinking about, I have been asking for more soup, she said sorry as she added more soup for him.

A week later , Dara did not see Dapo, she called her mother to inform about it, I told you to stop threatening them with Dupe, She is in good hands there, Mama Dapo said angrily. I will see what I can do.

The next week she paid Dapo a visit, my son why would you be that mean to your sister, you know she hasn't been herself since she lost her husband, can you please bring back Dupe . Mama Dapo said, mummy I didn't send her away, her mother took her property, I can't keep forcing her to leave Dupe here, am only trying to ease her stress
