His mouth itched to ask her what the problem was.
Seember went upstairs to her room to meet Shiana , she knocked on Her door , she knew her grandchild too well , when she was pissed she would run up to her room and lock herself in.
Seember knocked on the brown Turkey imported door , Shiana didn’t say anything, she repeated the knock the second time .
“Go away grandma I don’t want to talk to anyone .” Shiana said , her grandmother begged for a long while before she agreed to come down from the king size bed to open the door.
Seember saw her grand daughter, she was cleaning the tears that was sipping from her eyes with the back of her hand .
“What is it Shiana ?why are you crying ? Did you and your mummy have a fight ?” Seember asked , Shiana nodded .

“I’ve been seeing other children with their mothers and fathers, but I had only my mummy , whenever I asked mummy of my dad , she said he was dead , but today I saw my daddy .” Shiana said with a sad puppy eyes .
“He told mummy he didn’t just abandon us , that his daddy is a bad man , that he put a charm on him . Grandma is it fair that mummy told me my dad is dead ?”Shiana asked , Seember caressed the hairs of her beautiful and intelligent grand child,kissed her forehead.
“Baby am sorry that we didn’t tell you about your dad , we didn’t want you to be hurt.”Seember said ..
“But grandma you’ve been telling me to never lie, to always say the truth, but everyone lied to me.” She said with a disheartening voice.

“So please forgive her .” Seember said and got up from the bed , the door creaked and shut itself up ,after Seember left .

Terfa was standing beside his car , a Luxus Salon car , it had tinted glasses and big exhaust. “Dooshima are you sure his Coming back wouldn’t affect our relationship?” Terfa asked his fiancee .
“No it wouldn’t, Ogwuche is in my past , I cannot keep dancing in one circle , in three weeks time this will all he over.”Dooshima said with all sincerity , she wanted to get married,she would never deny Ogwuche the opportunity to see his daughter, but she just didn’t want the intertribal marriage anymore, she blamed herself for taking that path in the first place .
“Thank you babe for choosing me , I won’t let you down .” Terfa affirmed , while holding Dooshima’s hand in his palms .”I’ll love you with the last blood in my vein .”He promised before getting into his car .
He put the car in reverse and joined his father’s convoy of eight Lexus S570 and Toyota Landcruiser Prado bullet proof SUVs. Dooshima’s feet were planted in one place , as she watched the Cars go , she was so weak , she just wanted to get into her room and sleep.
“I need to sleep , I need to clear my throbbing head , this headache is too much .”Dooshima mumbled , she went into her room and slept from three P.M to six P.M when her dad walked into her room.

“No I’m fine daddy , please come in .” Dooshima said , she yawned stretched ,and shifted for her dad to sit next to her . the professor was wearing a sky blue pajamas.
“Your mother told me what transpired downstairs, I’ve asked that Adejio is moved back to Abuja , it was really unprofessional of him to harass the innocent man.” The prof Gamadi said, Dooshima nodded but didn’t say a word , she moved her locked hair that had fallen over her eyes .
The professor placed both elbows on his thighs close to his knee cap , his fingers intertwined. “I was just confused about what to say to you, I know the bond you shared with that young man , and you have a child for him, but then the friend or my son has proposed to you , and we’re about doing the traditional marriage.
What is your plans ?” Professor Gamadi asked . Dooshima was quiet for over a minute .
“Daddy I don’t know what to do .” She said forcing the tears forming in her eyes to cease . “I am thirty one years old now , I want to be married , my life was on hold for seven years, because of him … Now I found a man worthy he showed out of the blues .”Dooshima said ,the professor nodded .
