are good?
Mina: I’m fine, yourself?
Dad: I’m doing well. Sorry for what happened yesterday anyway. Hope you didn’t show any sign of it when you got home?
Mina: I gave you my words. I didn’t. But he was mad at me for taking the boy out without his notice. But I apologized and cautioned the boy not tell him about what happened. From now I’m gonna keep an eye on his movements.
Dad: Alright. I have your husband’s Voter’s ? card with me. How can you trick him to look for it?
Mina: Really? What’s the name on it?
Dad: Louis Adepa. Is that his name?
Mina: of course!!
Wife walks in as Dad makes the call.
Wife : honey, can we have a word?
Dad: Pls let me finish this call.
Wife: Alright
Mina: That’s my rival I guess. Hmmm
Dad: Well, she was the one. So as I was saying, what can you do to make your husband look for his ? card?
Mina: I really don’t know but I’ll be glad if you can send me your wife’s picture on whatsapp. I wanna see if I know the face.
Dad: Well, I’ll do so. I’ll get back to you shortly OK. Bye.
Dad calls wife.
Wife: Who was on the phone?
Dad: A friend I met on my way to the mall.
Wife: A friend, So you ignored me because you were speaking to a friend? When did you start this honey.
Dad: I’m sorry dear, I didn’t know you needed me so urgent. I’m here for uou. Let’s talk.
Wife: OK, I’m cool. I wanna go visit my mum and dad in the village and educate them a little on the pandemic and as well give them some foodstuffs. I think I’ll get some farm produce from my dad’s garden so we preserve as well.
Dad: That’s not a bad idea. When do you intend going?
Wife: My junior brother the soldier said he will bring me a permit to show to the security personnel on my way, so if he brings it today I’ll leave the day after tomorrow.
Dad: Well, you can go if he brings it. Are you going with Tilly?
Wife: Of course granny misses her.
Dad: For that I won’t allow. I think you should go and come since you will return the following day. Just prepare something and keep in the fridge for us, we will stay behind so you go and come.
Just tell your mum I didn’t allow her to come with you because of the of the pandemic.
Wife: OK, if you say so.
Dad goes through his phone and sends a pic of his wife to Mina.
Mina: Thanks Bill. I don’t think I’ve met this face before.
Dad: OK.
