Mmesoma's Dilemma - Episode 27

 

“Surprise, surprise everyone, who missed me?” Irene asked as she stepped into the parlour. She was beaming with smiles, clearly delighted to see how shocked we were, Afam and his siblings looked like their mother had betrayed them, the Arsenal was confused because grandma clearly did not factor in ex-girlfriend and baby mama drama, Mr.

. Chibueze, my siblings and my parents looked uncomfortable.

I, however, needed to get back to my beauty sleep; the drama was too much.

“Irene, what bullshit have you being feeding my mother?” Afam asked . I looked at my baby brother whose eyes were wide open; I did not want him listening to all this nonsense.

“Bullshit? Nigga shut up; did you seriously think that I would allow you disrespect me like that? You thought I would let you play that kind of game with me?” she asked him and he looked away, angry and shocked.

“Shebi I told you that she is crazy, you did not want to listen; now she has set out to destroy your life. Mummy even believes her more than she believes you”, Ada said as she glared at Afam.

“Mummy, I still do not understand how you can believe anything she says, Irene does not get the award for most sincere person and before you dragged everyone here and began to insult Meso, why did you not first ask Afam whether the things you are hearing are true? Now see”, Tobe added

. Their mother stared on in shock, just opening and closing her mouth like a fish, she clearly did not expect her children to give her this kind of backlash.

Sorry, not sorry.

“Irene, come and be going, as a family we are tired of your severe foolishness, he should have ended things with you years ago, I still don’t know what he ever saw in you sef”, Ada continued, the young lady was on a roll.

It is as if today is the day all the shy people get sassy, first my mom and now Ada.

“See ehn Afam, keep your baby sister on a leash. Mummy, I was not lying, Mmesoma is telling anyone who cares to listen that so many girls have had abortions for Afam, she is even telling people that there is a girl currently pregnant for him. Why would I be making such things up?” she asked God knows who, because everyone was just glaring at her.

“Wait first, what does my sister have to do with this? And, who says they are lies anyway? I just want to know all those girls doing abortions for him considering the fact that for so long, you have been his only known girlfriend and considering how your violent nature is popular, no one would be trying to steal your man from you”, Ezinne pointed out.

“Will you shut up? Can you see your ages mate here?” Irene said as she took a step towards Ezinne.

“No, you should shut up because no one will put up with your stupidity again. The girl is right, and I have some questions of mine, when did you hear Mmesoma telling everyone this? You might have my mother fooled but that is all, none of us believe you and believe me when I say I would do everything possible to ensure that you get out of Afam’s life and stay out of it!”, Ada fired back as she stepped between Irene and Ezinne.

The tension in the room was thick, my grandma was sitting down, she was clearly very confused and did not understand how all these affected her own plans. Her own was that Afam and Mmesoma would get married even if he has a harem of women and a thousand children. My aunts were so hooked; it was like watching a reality TV show.

“Ada you really need to shut up! I am tired of you always ruining my life! This whole thing is your fault, you were the reason they met each other, if you were not such a light drinker and a clumsy fool, Nnenna would never have had to take you home and Afam would never have had to meet her. It is your fault that my life is so messed up right now!” she screamed at Ada.

“Who is Nnenna?” Mr Chibueze asked.

“I was about to ask that”, my grandma added.

“She is the girl who is pregnant for Afam the whore who sabotaged my relationship”, Irene responded.

“She is the girl Afam would rather spend the rest of his life with, she is the girl any of us would rather see him with sef”, Ada retorted.

These ones sha hate each other.

“She is the

“Well, she is all these but most importantly, she is the infamous Nnenna Duru, the only daughter of Cyprian and Sopuru Duru, the king and queen of the power circle”, Ezinne added with a smirk. Grandma was seriously frowning, my parents, Afam’s parents and my aunts were in shock.

“The Duru’s do not have a daughter”, aunty Kainene said in a matter-of-fact tone.

“Yes they do and it is always so annoying when I have to explain my existence to people”, a new voice responded.

We all turned to face the parlor door and in walked a smiling Nnenna Duru, who was actually just as beautiful as they all claimed she was, flanked my all her brothers and her parents.

Suddenly my parlor felt so small and it was as if air was not flowing well again.

“Good evening, my name is Nnenna Duru and it is a pleasure to meet you all”, she said when suddenly grandma fainted.

Is like I will not sleep that sleep again today.
