The end point of every conspiracy is action. After discussing and concluding on that which is to be done with out an action, it amounts to nothing.

Chief Gavin sat comfortably in his parlour with Frank as Harry and his family members emerged the room behind Mirabell who led the way.. He just nodded in a reluctant affirmation to their pleasantries. Mirabell stood aside at an angle of the sitting room hoping and praying that the outcome of their visit will be successful.

At length, Mr . Wilson Bakari , being the oldest man that have participated in the journey decided to break the coconut by letting the cat out of the bag respectively.

He adjusted himself on the sofa as he simultaneously cleared his throat. With this , sheer attention was channeled to him and the impulsive glare he got propelled him to go forward with what he had in mind to say.

''our people says that the toad does not run in the afternoon sun for nothing. It is either it is being chased or that it is chasing after something. ''

the men with him nodded in concurrence.

. Wilson paused to take cognance of Chief Gavin's face. Whose countenance was as reluctant as ever.

''why dont you go ahead and stop waiting our precious time''

Frank asseverated . Many hostile glare was shot at him that instant but none mustered the courage to reprimand him.

''ehm ehm ehm.' Mr. Wilson cleared his throat again and continued 'Our son Here has identified a ripe apple in your compound and we have accompanied him to plug the apple in your consent.''

That moment , Chief Gavin spontaneously burst into an irritating laughter leaving his visitors in bewilderment.

'' ehm ehm ehm, "

Frank mimicked jestfully.

"must you guys spread coronavirus before giving a speech?''

Chief Gavin went ahead laughing loudly. His wife who had been inside the room came out to the staircase by reason of his laughter to know that which is amusing him. She knew her husband quite so well. She knows that the issue at hand must be giganticly amusing for the stone faced man to laugh aloud.

''Don't bother yourself about what so ever virus and disease they came with. I believe our immunity is so strong to shield us from Poverty Virus''.

Chief Gavin said when he had mellowed down his laughter. Frank concurred with him with a stylish smile at the end of his left cheek. ''what did you say you came for?' chief Gavin directed to his visitor ' You people look hungry. You said you came to beg for an Apple?'' .

''no, that was an idiomatic expression. What I was trying to emphasize is that we came to seek for your daughter's hand in marriage.''

Mr. Wilson enumerated. He was gradually becoming offended at their nasty comments but tried his best to remain calm for the purpose of Peace.

"so my full fledged daughter has now been reduced to an Apple right? Mirabell can you hear them?''

Chief Gavin asked. 

"Dad!'' Mirabell called. He was practically embarrassing her and she don't like it. ''no, that's not what we mean''

Harry defended with the motive of puncturing the fallacious conception he was making.

"you came to marry my daughter right?''

Harry responded with a nod. chief Gavin went ahead to ask him how he thought it could be possible for a nodowell like him to marry his only daughter who he had trained and financed her education from kindergarten to tertiary level. He touted them with insult piled upon insult and introduced Frank to them as his own chosen Husband for his daughter.

''Harrison, this marriage is never going to work. I am out of this God forsaken place!''

Mr. Wilson squalled exasperatedly when he was totally fed up with the abuses and insults he was receiving. He stood immediately and marched towards the door.

''i know I made a very big and remarkable mistake by coming along with you to this journey.''

he murmured.

''you better start moving if you don't fancy trekking home!''

He screamed at every one he came with before storming out of the building towards his car. There was Another range of laughter from Chief Gavin and Frank Morgan. The duo was definitely enjoying the outcome of their plans so much so that they failed to consider how others felt.

''son , wilson is right. I can't muster the courage to call this beast an in-law ''

Mr. Thomson Bakari fumed.

''hey , watch your tongue if you don't what it chopped off''

Chief Gavin cautioned but he was already out of the building.others followed suitely leaving Harry behind. He sat deeply unto the sofa with his heart as heavy as a bag of cement. The feeling right inside of him was the blend of anger, despondency, regret and revenge. His face was locked to the highest extreme as he glared at Frank and next to Chief Gavin. If eyes were Gun , the both would have gotten an hundred and one bullet each in the heart. Finally , he broke down into tears which he had been fighting so hard to hold when his eyes chimed with that of Mirabell who has long been in tears since the moment her father started his insult. It was so unfortunate that she couldn't do any thing to savage the situation other than to cry. She ran up to him the moment he stood to leave and hugged his so tightly. He reciprocated the Hug as he wept bitterly.

"This is not the end Mirabell . I would never let go of you''

he managed to whisper into her ears. And then , distarched himself from her and then went off to join his family outside the house. Every one was looking plaintive and stranded as he observed. He thought they would be inside the car waiting for him impatiently but the case was different. the look he saw on each of their faces shows an immense catastrophe.

''i knew it right from time that this won't yield a good result! Just take a look at my car.''

Mr. Wilson shouted the moment he sighted him. He then turned his view to the car they came with only to discover that the four tyres has gone flat.

Mr. Wilson tried starting the car, it refused. Some one must have tampered with his car and he swore to bring the culprit to paper if he dares recognize him. However , the five of them made effort to push the car . As they did that, Frank came out and started teasing them.

''oh look at how you guys are sweating. I guess I should lend a help of my quota.''

with that, he gave command to his goons who brought out the bags of sarchet water they had purchased earlier and began to throw it at them so as to get them cool. That was such an embarrassing day for Harry and his family.
