BELINA (AFTER THE WEDDING) SEASON 2
******EPISODE 38******
Oyinade frowned as she stared at the screen. She jumped up when the realization of what had just happened hit her.
They had murdered the wrong person. It ought to be Ronke and not this Adejoke girl being displayed on TV.
She became slightly dizzy. It had taken a whole lot of will-power to attempt murder and now to
complicate issues, they just murdered the wrong person, meaning Ronke was still free. She hadn’t called for the past three days but that made her even more dangerous, not to mention the fact that they just killed her favorite step-sister.
She remembered Ronke talking about her extensively countless number of times.
Oyinade grabbed her head, roaming the sitting room.
She called Tikes but his number was not going
through. She threw her phone on the chair. Ronke just got more dangerous.
She had known that Ronke was too clever to be
eliminated so easily but she also knew that Ronke would not have expected her do anything so stupid.
What would Ronke do when she find out? She
could not begin to imagine.
********************
Ronke got tired of shedding tears. She could not imagine that she had lost her step-sister, the only family she had left. She still saw her
yesterday looking so alive and happy.
Why had she asked her to go over to the
house? If she hadn’t done that, she would be alive now. She wiped her eyes after hours of wailing and crying. There was no one to
comfort her in the hotel she was lodged in and she had to comfort herself.
She engaged her thoughts now. Who could have wanted Joke dead? She is the liveliest person she knew and could not think of anyone trying to harm her.
‘Wait. What if I was the target?’ the thought
slammed into her, making her dizzy. It could have been her obituary on the screen.
She shook her head vigorously, dismissing such evil thought. Silently, she thanked God for her life.
She poured herself another shot of whiskey and downed it at once. ‘who could have wanted me dead’ she wondered. The old man crossed her mind.
It was a possibility but she felt the man could not be as stupid as to do that; killing her would mean he would not get his money back.
That dismissed, only one person could have done it – Oyinade. She remembered that the deadline she gave would have ended yesterday, meaning, the truth would have been out today. ‘So that useless pig wanted to kill me ehn? She
killed my Joke, my own Adejoke.’ She shook her
head. She couldn’t come out of hiding because she was still wanted for theft, making her quest for revenge harder. She still couldn’t kill her. Even though it hurt so much, she could not imagine herself murdering a human being
and not a fetus.
“Ok. Let me give her exactly what she was preventing.” She said out loud.
********************
Oyinade’s phone rang and she ran to pick it. It was a hidden number and only one person call with a hidden number.
“Hey you…. What rubbish did you do” she yelled.
“Would you shut up?” she heard over the receiver. She froze. She never expected to
hear that voice again.
She should be dead but by sheer luck and braveness, she was still alive. She shivered.
“Hey R…Ronke… I… I heard about your ehmm… your”
“Would you shut your dirty mouth you murderer. You think I am so dumb as to not know who did this?
Just listen; you just stepped the lion’s tail, get ready to go down. After you go to jail for the fraud you committed, you would then hang for murdering my only family. They should be at
your doorstep now. See you in hell”
The phone dropped from Oyinade’s hand and
scattered all over the floor.
Ronke had reported her.
She was almost peeing on her body and her body shook so violently that you would assume she just had an encounter with Titanic’s iceberg.
She picked her purse on the chair, gathered the ruins of her phone, took her car keys and dashed out. She drove out of the house without
closing the gate.
