was 11:52am, with the way am feeling if I don't see ope today am going
to lose my mind , it was then I decided to stay in the car till she's
discharged . Later that day at around 3:00pm i was listening to a
program on the car radio when I heard a tap on the side window of my
car and I reduced the volume of the radio simultaneously as I whined
down the window," good afternoon oga a young security man said to me"
good afternoon I replied, then he said " I noticed that you have been
sitting here for a while now are you waiting for someone sir? " yes I
replied "and when is the person coming sir because the hospital don't
allow people to stay too long in the premises " the person am waiting
for will be discharged this evening so I have to wait" in that case am
sorry sir I will have to search your car sir, that is the order from
above" I nodded my head opened the door and came down, the security
man searched the whole of my car but it was clean he apologized again
then left,
It was 4:20pm when I saw a wheel chair coming out of the hospital
building , it was opeyemi that was being pushed by her husband then
followed by Mrs. Badmus, as they approach their car I came out from my
car and walked towards them, Mrs. Badmus saw me first and immediately
she made a sign to me to go back but I refused," good evening sir I
said" I said, my boss looked back at me and said " what the hell are
you doing here, answer me ? What are you doing here?" he ran towards
me ,just like I was ready for it I started running backwards , he
became faster and I ran faster too until I got to were two of the
security men were standing I quickly stood behind one of them, he came
running at both of us with me hiding at the man's back and peeping
occasionally, he threw a punch and surprisingly it landed at the side
of my face as I was trying to peep, I felt really hurt and angry then
came out from hiding and stood in front of him, I guessed he saw the
anger in my face because I noticed that he was less aggressive then he
said, " tunji am going to show you," now standing in one spot " before
you will end my marriage I will end your life you bastard" , I just
stood there with anger in me patiently waiting for him to make a move
for me so that I would beat the hell out of him, when I saw that he
wasn't going to make the move I decided to move towards him, that was
when I heard opeyemi's voice from my back that says " you guys should
stop this nonsense , am really ashamed of you two, look at the way you
guys are behaving like kids.
At that point I notice that he has calmed down so I calmed down too,
he moved towards his wife and Mrs. badmus who was standing behind
her,he tried moving the wheelchair when I said " wait ope I want to
talk to you", he tried pushing the wheelchair again when she said "
please leave the chair alone with a frown on her face" he left her and
I began to talk "ope I want to apologize for all the trouble have
caused you in your life,I wish I never met you that night ,I wish I
never ran away when you threatened me with the police, I wish I was
there to defend you when everyone called you a slut when you were
carrying my baby, i know that in your heart you know that I didn't do
all those things on purpose, I don't know what else to say than just
ask for your forgiveness, have made up my mind ope am leaving your
life completely, as from now on I no longer work at the company and I
don't want to meet our son anymore" I turned to her husband and said
"have always had great respect for you,i never tried to spoil your
marriage all I wanted was my child" then to Mrs.badmus " mummy thank
you for everything, but I want you to know that am not a gold digger "
then back to ope " I only want to ask you for a favor, when ben is old
enough to understand everything that happened please don't tell him
that am dead, if he feels like meeting his father he could come find
me" I didn't even realized that I was crying by the time I finished
talking, I turned my back on them and left.
THE END.
