To Hate Emmanuel Johnsons - Episode 23
Tessy:
I am silent as i walk home with olivia. My mind just can comprehend
why emmanuel took his anger at me. He managed his grief the wrong way.
Atleast now i know why he hated me from the first day we met. I had
thought he just took fun in teasing me. I thought maybe he liked me
but now, i am sure what he feels is the complete opposite. Olivia
noticed my mood and she is trying to cheer me up.
"do you want some cake T?"
"no, thank you"
"but its from emmanuel" she says
"so?"
"you like emmanuel right?" where is this coming from?.
"who told you that?" i ask
"he did" wow, the Jerk!
"well, its not true"
"so, do you hate him"
"why don't we stop talking about emmanuel now my little olive?"
"alright"
"good girl" i say then notice someone behind me. I turn to see who it
is and i freeze. Its my dad!... What is he doing here? Why after six
years is he persistent about seeing us. I look at him and notice he
hasn't changed much. Except from a scattering of white hair on his
beard, he looks exactly the same way he looked years ago.
"hey, baby girl" he says smiling

. I wonder what he is smiling about.
"i am not your baby girl" i say as soon as i find my voice.
"T, do you know this man?"olivia asks from beside me
"no.
Read " Stolen innocence " by the same author ( Ameh juliet )
. I don't"
"my baby girl" he says then tries to touch my face and my skin crawls.
Could today get any worse? I move backwards, out of his reach and his
hand fall to his side.
"i am so sorry baby girl, you have to let me explain"
"don't. call. me. that!" i say.
"ok, but let me explain"
"you had six years to explain why now?"
"because now i am free" he says and this pique my interest but i don't
want to listen to his lies.
"please go away" i say then grab olivia's hand to walk away but then stop.
"oh, and please don't call us anymore. Mom's getting married so i
don't want you to distract her" after this, i walk away with olivia
and he doesn't stop us. I hope that news would keep him away. We don't
need him in our lives anymore.
When we get home, mom had cooked dinner. After taking our bath, we
head to the dining room and that's when my mom breaks her news. Her
wedding has been pushed forward to this Saturday. That is only about
five days from today.
"why the rush?"i ask her
"oh, its nothing. We are just excited to get married"
i thought i had atleast a month to get my feelings of love and hate
for emmanuel eradicated before we become siblings but now, i don't
have that much time again.
