WHEN LOVE JUST HAPPENS 2 : EPISODE 41 – 50
EPISODE 45
“And what do you have to say?”
“Pius has been coming to lay complaints, of how you have been constantly throwing yourself at him, but I never believed him, until he came with this proof”
“Pius did what? He was the one who even forced himself on me in the first place, how can you just believe his words, when you haven’t even heard my own side of the story?”
“Because we have this” Vivian took her phone, and opened to a video, and played it for Amaka to watch.
In the Video, Amaka was the one who forced Pius to kss her, it was as if they both traded places.
Amaka replayed the video to make sure she was seeing correctly, and she kept gasping in surprise, as she watched the video. She couldn’t believe what she was watching.
“No this can’t be, it doesn’t even make sense, how can I be the one throwing myself at Pius, when he was practically the one who forced himself on me?”
“But that’s not what it looks like in the video Amaka”
“But you have to believe me, you can’t just take his words over mine, Pius has been the one flirting with me, and even forced himself on me”
“And if what you are saying is true, then why didn’t you come and report to me? Why didn’t you say something all these while?”
Amaka was silent, she knew Vivian was right, all these while, that Pius has been flirting with her, not for once did she report him to Vivian, but Instead she encouraged him by flirting back. The only person she ever told was Jane, and that wouldn’t even count.
Amaka knew she needed to think of something really fast, something that can prove she was actually telling the truth. She then, immediately remembered that Pius had gotten her a flower, and box of chocolates as a means of apology.
“Just to prove to you that, he was the one who forced himself on me, he bought a box of chocolates, and a rose flower this morning, to apologize for forcing himself on me on Friday” Amaka was glad Pius had refused to collect the items back, when she had asked him to.
“And where are these items?” Vivian asked.
“They are on my desk”
“Come show them to me then” Vivian stood up and motioned for Amaka to lead the way.
When they got to Amaka’s office, her desk was empty, save for her laptop, and notepad. The box of chocolates, and rose flower which were on her desk, before she left for Vivian’s office, were missing.
“Where are the items Amaka?”
“I don’t understand what is going on, I left them on my desk before coming to your office” Amaka was confused, she bent down to check if they had fallen on the floor, but they weren’t there either.
“Amaka, hope you didn’t bring me here to play pranks? I’m sure you are aware of the level of trouble you have gotten yourself into?”
“I swear, I’m not lying ma, I left them here”
As Amaka was still trying to look for the items, Pius walked out of his office holding the same box of chocolates.
“Hello Vivian, good morning” he greeted Vivian, before he turned to Amaka.
“Amaka there you are, I have been looking for you, to return these, I’m sorry but I’m not a chocolate person” he presented the box of chocolates to Amaka, this time, it had a sticky note attached to it.
“What are you talking about? Weren’t you the one who gave it to me?”
“Why would I give you a box of chocolates? What for?” Pius looked at her like she was loosing it.
“You dropped them on my desk, even before I arrived this morning, because you wanted to apologize for kssing me without my consent on Friday” Amaka was trying her best to not $lap Pius.
“Then I also wrote this note as well?”
Vivian collected the box of chocolates from Pius, and read out the contents of the note.
“I’m sorry for kssing you Pius, please forgive me.
“Jesus Christ! I never wrote that! Pius what are you playing at? Why are you doing this?”
“Now you are accusing me of lying as well? Vivian you see what I told you about?”
“What did you tell her about me? You punk! Weren’t you the one who forced yourself on me?”
“Amaka meet me in my office now!” Vivian turned and left Amaka’s office, and Amaka followed behind.
“Amaka what is wrong with you? Why would you be throwing yourself at your boss? When you already know the company’s take on issues like this?” Vivian was furious, as she got to her office.
“Don’t tell me you fell for that? That guy is clearly lying against me, and it’s obvious”
“Really?” Vivian threw the box of chocolates at Amaka who caught it.
“Is that note not from you? Or are you going to deny that?”
“Whoever wrote this note, really tried to copy my handwriting, but this is not my writing, Vivian you have to believe me”
“How am I supposed to do that? If he truly did all what you are accusing him of, then why didn’t you report him to the HR, or myself? Instead he was the one who came to lay complaint about you”
At that moment, Amaka knew she really didn’t have a case against Pius, he was a step ahead of her, in every area. How could she have not seen this coming? How could she have been this stupid, not to have noticed that guy was up to something all these while?
“I’m sure you know what this means Amaka”
“I wouldn’t if you don’t tell me Vivian” she looked Vivian in the eye, awaiting her to say her fate to her face.
“You are suspended”
“For how long?”
“Until a thorough investigation has been conducted on this case”
“And after that?”
“If you are found guilty, then you would be sacked, and if not you get your job back”
“All right, thanks” Amaka left Vivian’s office, and went straight to Pius’s office.
“Are you happy now? This is what you wanted isn’t it? To get me fired”
“How may I help you Amaka?” Pius had a smug look on his face
“You won’t get the last laugh, I promise you that”
“Are you threatening me?”
Amaka smiled at him, then turned and left the office, making sure to bang the door. She went to her office, took her stuff, and left.
When she got outside of the office premises, she decided to call Jane. She didn’t want to go back to her apartment, and be by herself at this point.
“Hello Amaka, what’s up?” Jane answered cheerfully.
“I’m fine, are you home?”
“Yes”
“All right, I’m on my way”
“Okay, aren’t you supposed to be at work?”
“When I come, I will explain”
Amaka ordered for an Uber, which took her to Jane’s place.
“Amaka are you okay? Why are you not at work?” Jane questioned as she opened the door for Amaka.
“Please tell me you have food in your kitchen?” Amaka took off her wig as she entered the living room, and dumped it, alongside with her handbag on the floor.
“I have rice, and there is semo which one…”
“Please give me semo abeg, I need all the energy I can get”
“Okay…. Are you sure you are fine?”
“Jane please give me food before I faint, I have problems, but I need to eat first, I nor kill person”
Her behavior made Jane to laugh, as she went into the kitchen to serve Amaka her food.
When she brought the food to the dinning, Amaka ate silently. After she was done eating, she told Jane everything that had happened.
“You mean that guy framed you simply because you refused his advances?”
“I’m as shocked as you are”
“But why was he asking you out to dinner, when he already planned on setting you up?”
“I’m still trying to figure out what that guy is up to”
“I can’t even begin to imagine how difficult this must be for you”
“You have no idea Jane, it’s really hard” Amaka had tears in her eyes as she spoke, making Jane pull her into a hug.
“Don’t you worry, things will turn out for the best eventually, you will surely be vindicated”
“Because of that ba$tard, I lost Dele, now he wants to make me lose my job too” Amaka cried on Jane’s shoulders.
“Dele broke up with you?”
“Yes he did” Amaka pulled out of the hug, and cleaned her tears. “He asked me to quit my job if I wanted to get back with him, but I refused, so we broke up”
“Oh Amaka, I’m sorry, I never knew about this”
“I’m definitely going to get my job back, Pius doesn’t know it, but he has messed with the wrong babe, and he is going to pay for this”
“So what are you going to do now?” Jane asked, as she cleared the plates Amaka used in eating to the kitchen.
“I don’t know yet, but I need to find a way to prove my innocence, I can’t allow that idiot to tarnish my image in that company”
“Don’t worry, I’m very sure you will be vindicated” Jane placed the dishes in the dishwasher, and set it to wash.
“Even though Vivian said, they were going to carry out an investigation on the matter, I still can’t totally depend on her, especially with the irrational ways she has been acting these days. I need to find a way to expose Pius myself”
“I still don’t understand why he would choose to set you up, it’s not as if you did anything wrong to him, or probably he was scared you were going to report him, so he decided to report you first?”
“I don’t care whatever his motive was, all I know is that, he has messed with me, and I’m definitely going to make him pay” Amaka gritted her teeth as she spoke.
“Amaka whatever you do, please be careful”
“Now you are beginning to sound like my mother, yes mummy I will be careful” Amaka smiled at Jane.
“Speaking of mothers, there is something I have been planning to tell you”
“Are you pregnant?” Amaka asked in excitement. “Oh I’m going to be a god mother…” Amaka screamed. “If it’s a girl, you have to..” Amaka gesticulated with her hands as she spoke with excitement.
“Amaka stop it, I am not pre.gnant”
“Oh….” Amaka started to itch her ears as she realized she had thought wrongly.
“Have you forgotten told you, I wanted to wait at least a year before getting preg.nant?”
“Abeg no vex, you know you said speaking of mothers, so I just assumed”
“Then you should stop assuming”
“It’s okay o, abeg what was it you wanted to tell me about?”
“Let’s go to the sitting room, you will need to sit down to hear this” Jane left the kitchen to the sitting room, and Amaka followed behind.
“Jane out with the gist already, this suspense is killing me already” Amaka said to Jane, as she sat down.
“I have found my biological mother, or should I say, she found me”
“Really? When? Where is she? Who is she?” Amaka asked all the questions at once, Jane started laughing.
“One question at a time Amaka”
“Oya start by answering when you found her”
“Last week, after we had dinner together, I came back to find her here in the house waiting for me”
“Who is she, and where has she been all these while?”
“It turns out that, my mother is Vivian”
“Which Vivian?”
“The same Vivian you know”
“Vivian, as in High Waters Vivian?”
“Yes the same Vivian”
“It’s a lie!”
“Same thing I said, when I found out”
Jane went ahead, and told her all that has been happening, and how a DNA was conducted to prove Vivian was her mother.
“Did you see this DNA result yourself, to confirm she is truly your mother?”
“Yes, Jeff showed me a copy”
“This is really a small world o, and all these while you were her personal assistant, and you never knew she was your mother”
“Small world indeed”
“So have you met with her family yet?”
“What for?”
“So you could meet your siblings of course. Jane you need to forgive her, considering the circumstances, and what you said she went through, you can’t blame her much”
“Amaka please I have other things to think about, Vivian being my mother is the least of them, besides I hold nothing against her”
“I know, but this is something you have always silently prayed, and wished for. Now it’s here, don’t throw it away because of unforgivingness, don’t say because you want to punish someone for what they did to you in the past, and then you end up punishing yourself in the process too”
Amaka knew that was what happened in the case of her relationship with Dele, and she didn’t want Jane to make the same mistake.
“I have heard you ma”
WHEN LOVE JUST HAPPENS 2 : EPISODE 41 – 50
That night, as Jane and Jeffery were done laid on the bed, to sleep, Jeffery came closer, and placed his hands on her waist.
“You look sxy tonight” he whispered in her ears.
“Thanks” she turned her back to him, and turned off her bedside lamp.
“Babe is everything all right?” Jeffery asked.
“Yes Jeff” she still has her back to him.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes” she drew the duvet closer, and covered herself up to her chin.
Jeffery placed his hands under the duvet, and gently squeezed her bum.
“Stop Jeff, not tonight” she pushed his hands off.
“Why not?” He kssed her earlobes, sending sweet sensations to Jane’s body. She knew she needed to stop him now, that she still can, before he makes her cave in, with his touch.
She turned her bedside lamp back on, and sat up.
“Jeff, I’m not in the mood”
“That’s a first time, are you not feeling well or something?” Jeffery looked at her with a worried look on his face.
“I’m feeling well, I don’t want to have sx tonight because I’m ovulating”
“And?” Jeffery asked in confusion, not quite understanding what she meant.
“And having sex with you when I’m ovulating, can increase my chances of getting pre.gnant”
“I don’t get this, so we would have to put sex on pause, whenever you are ovulating?”
“Yes Jeff, since you have refused to use a cd”
The last time, Jane had brought up the issue of Jeffery using a cd during sx, he had refused, saying he can’t be making love to his wife with a cd.
“I’m sorry, but weren’t you supposed to be on the pill or something?”
“I told you that pill has been making me have hormonal imbalance for a while now, I can’t continue taking it”
“Babe then you change it, if that one is not good for your system, then you try another one” Jeffery was clearly frustrated, he couldn’t believe she was refusing him sex because of something as simple as a choice of contraceptive.
“So you want me to be doing trial and error with my body abi?”
“I don’t understand, aren’t you supposed to try another one?”
“No I’m not going to try another one, haven’t you read that taking too much contraceptive pills aren’t good for women?” Jane said adamantly.
“So wait, are we supposed to not have sx whenever you are ovulating?”
“Yes”
“What if I’m h®rny? Just like I am right now?”
“You could use a cd”
“But babe you don’t expect me to use cd in having sx with my wife now, besides it’s not as sweet as when we do it….” Jeffery started caressing her laps, and she hit his hands off.
“I’m serious Jeff, no cd no sx. At least until after my ovulation”
“All these, because you don’t want to get preg.nant?”
“Yes”
“Why don’t you form a timetable then? So I can know when to touch you, and when not to?” Jeffery asked in annoyance.
“Don’t make this seem like my fault, after all you are the one who has refused to use a cd”
“Okay”
Jeffery laid down on the bed and turned off his bedside lamp to sleep.
“Is that all you are going to say?”
“What else do you want me to say?”
“Oh so I’m only useful to you when I agree to have spx with you?”
“Okay, now you are turning it around” Jeffery turned to face her.
“How am I turning it around? Tell me? Simply because I said I wasn’t going to have sex with you this night, you got angry and turned your back on me”
Jane laid down, and turned her back on him too.
Jeffery was confused, for a second he didn’t know what to say to her, because what she said was entirely different from what just happened.
“Babe?”
“Good night Jeff”
Sometimes he thinks he has her completely figured out, and then she brings up a new character. Now he knows why his father used to say to him that; ‘you can’t completely figure out a woman’.
