THE X-FAMILY : EPISODE 41 – 60
Episode 46
They walked into the hall which was almost looking like a judgement throne.
Khalid was there, Becca was right next to him, and some other members of the clan were present as well.
“You bch!!” Becca rasped as she ran towards Octavia and gripped her by the hair, pulling it hard.
“You bch! You animal! How dare you? How dare you!!”
Octavia was being held by the boys beside her and so, she couldn’t fight back even if she wanted to.
Mica was right behind, but couldn’t do anything. She had been expecting the worst.
“You ki.lled my baby! You’re a murderer!!” Becca yelled ruefully.
Khalid, who had been watching quietly from his throne like seat, signaled the boys to restrict her.
And immediately, they rushed to Becca and forcefully pulled her away from Octavia.
“Don’t touch me!! Let me go!!” She rasped and pushed them off by the time they had taken her back to Khalid.
She was panting heavily, her eyes glaring hard at Octavia and wished there was a way she could just eat her up.
With a push of his fingers, Khalid signalled the boys to bring Octavia forward and they did.
And as she went closer, Becca’s anger only increased.
She fisted her hands beside her, trying to stop herself from going right at her again.
“What happened, Octavia?” Khalid finally asked after a long silence.
If not for how silent the room was, Octavia prolly wouldn’t have heard him because of how cold his voice was.
She couldn’t even look him in the face.
“I…” She paused and gulped hard.
“While I was still in your room, Ma’am Becca showed up and woke me up.
“She kept asking why I was in your room but… I didn’t give her a reply. I dressed up and tried leaving, but she stopped me and pulled my hair…”
“Liar!!” Becca snarled and Octavia paused, giving her the moment.
“She pulled my hair” she continued. “And seemed very mad at me. She…She warned me to stop getting on her nerves. And then I…I told her to come to you if she’s having a problem with me. And the next thing… she $Iapped me”.
“She insulted me!!” Becca yelled, almost losing a grip of herself.
“If you hadn’t insulted me, there’s no way I’d have hit you!”
Another silence descended. Well, Octavia didn’t want to drag words with her. So, each time she cut her off, she just allowed her speak until she was done.
“I got angry and…and used my powers on her, making her hit the floor. I had no idea she was pregnant”. She further explained.
“Of course, you didn’t, you witch! How would you ever know?!” She yelled again and rushed towards her to hit her to sIap her.
The sIap stung like a bee on Octavia’s cheek, but she didn’t really feel hurt. Somehow, she felt so bad for Becca. But she didn’t blame herself for what she did.
Becca was taken back to her stand by the boys but she continued glaring hard at the lady who made her lose her child.
She couldn’t wait for her puni$hment; to hear what Khalid would do to her. Oh! The Khalid she knows would ki.ll for something like this.
Khalid was silent for a very long while, thinking about the whole thing. His hand was on his jaw, and finally, he adjusted and spoke out.
“Take Octavia back to the room. I’ll come up with a suitable puni$hment for her soon”.
Becca’s eyes dimmed.
“No!!!!!” She yelled just before the boys would take her away.
They all stopped and looked at her.
“No!!! That isn’t possible!!! Never!! Its not possible!!!” She didn’t mind if she was acting insane.
“Becca…” Khalid tried calling.
“Never, Khalid! Not even in de.ath will I let this lady go unpunished!”
“I never said she was going unpunished. I’m definitely going to…”
“It has to be here and now!!! Pass your judgement now, Khalid!! Now!!”
Oh! She was breaking a lot of rules, but she didn’t care.
First, she went against his command, opposing him. And secondly, she interrupted and yelled at him.
If it had been any other day, Khalid would’ve had her tongue for it. But, well today was different. Today, she wasn’t acting like his girlfriend, but she was acting like a hurt mother.
“If you don’t punish her, Khalid” she whimpered. “I swear, I’ll do nasty things and take the consequences for it”.
Khalid wasn’t moved by her threats – never. But, looking into her eyes, he could clearly see the pains she felt.
His eyes bored into hers for a long time and finally, he stood up from his seat, ready to pass his judgement.
