The night was chilly and held untold events. a weather for two she whispered folding her arms across her chest. She wondered what her family members were? sasha? Kolas voice came in a frigntened whisper. Oh you pukeface! she turned to face him so you guyz were in? Ive been pressing this bell for... keep your cool Cassandra surfaced Kemi is around she added paving way for Sasha to walk in. Aunty Kay? Sasha asked-eyes wide yea, get ready to tell her where youre coming from, by 8pm in school uniform. Cassandra sneered. Sasha swallowed. Kemi was around? Of all days! She should have known, she wouldnt have gone to see whoever. Sasha get over here! Kemis voice rang out from the Dinning section. Throwing her bag down, she walked slowly towards the dinning Good evening mum-dad, Aunty kay welcome, when did you arrive? her voice betrayed her. where on earth are you coming from? Kemi asked in between her teeth. Williams gulped down some water to ease his anger, Barbra grithed her teeth, Kola bent his head- tensed up. Aunty kay, youre welcome, hows Uncle TeeJay? Shasha was trying her best to maintain her composure. Did you hear my question? Yea, sure did. Shasha cleared her throat. I and Kenny stayed back in the school library to read...errrm..you know, our exams is on. but I came personally to your school to pick you but... Kemi sounded cool I said were in the library, at the far end of the library. And Traffic kept us for hours she explained again. okay, fine then, how was your day? kemi resumed eating. how are you Sasha? Williams and his wife chorused Fine thanks. Sasha helped herself into a chair. School was really hectic today. she started scooping food into her plate. Thats school life for you. Kemi said relaxed. Yea auntymi, were just solving mathematical questions, gosh! Different kind of theorems. Sasha explained. or walking around my school with your boyfriend-I rather say. Cassandra said wiping her mouth with a napkin. Sashas heart lurched, everything came to a standstill. Cassie... she said in a painful whisper. Kemi looked at her two sisters, the older having a triumphant look, the younger looking frightened. oh I shouldnt have spilled the beans. Cassandra scoffed. well, they believed your lies, not me. whats going on? Barbra enquired I saw your pretty daughter alongside Kenny, cruising my school in her boyfriends car. Cassandra said without caution. Sasha Williams! Barbra was trembling. are you gonna tell the truth now?! I...We went to see a friend and we werent time conscious... The plates and cups that started flying in the air, made her jump to her feet. Sasha Williams you lied! You have no idea what youve done..Barbra pulled herself up. Honey.. Williams tried to hold his wife. I never caused my mother heart ache, and my own child is trying to kill me.The dam broke But mum... Gbe enu re soun, omo rada rada. Kemis hand flew into the air, but missed Sashas face. Sasha ran to her room banging the door behind her. What was wrong with everybody? She could still hear her mother and Kemi screaming, while her father was trying to calm them down. Her phone beeped hello Kenny? Hello locky how far? Very bad, kenny, Cassie saw us, she spilled it out, Aunty Kemi is in town , the house is on fire....Kenny as I speak to you, Im seeking refuge in my room She was panting. oh my God! Aunty Kemi? Gosh! Cassie is a Jerk! Kenny almost screamed. The door flew open, Sasha dropped her phone, spinning round. Her eyes widened as she saw her dad standing, his eyes dark. ********** *********** Rolling her tongue over her lips, Sasha swallowed hard. The man walking into her room doesnt look like her father. Williams shut the door behind him;resting his back on it, he stared at his daughter- the only odd figure in his even life. Hi? Sasha said, feeling uncomfortable, he looked like some Assasin. youll be going to Lagos with Kemi, get your things ready, youll be leaving tomorrow He said carelessly. Dad? You heard me. I sure did! But Im not going to Lagos, what about my school? My exams? her voice was rising. shed register you over there. But dad, its my life, my destiny-my future were talking about here. Its just not fair. Her voice trembled Not only is it fair, its final! Williams spat. But dad... her voice trailed off. Where was her strength, her venom? Why cant she say those words that hurt? She watched her father leave the room. Snatching a pillow off her bed, she punched into it furiously. I hate The Williams! She yelled. Lagos? I hate it too. she muttured falling into bed, not minding her school uniform and shoes. ******* Take care of yourselves. Barbra said as Kemi was taking her things outside. Sasha emerged pulling her bags. Ill miss you. Kola said taking her bags from her. No reply. Sassy? he tried again. Ill miss you too pukeface she didnt look at him. Kola smiledhmmn, take care Aunty Kemi the driver is waiting. Cassie rushed in looking excited. Okay, lets go. Kemi picked up her bag. Bye Sasha... Barbra said Bye Sasha Williams and Kola echoed. Sasha sat in the car, her lips pursed, theyre happy shes leaving. Finally, they separated her from Kenny, her best friend. She was yet to call him, she wasnt sure he knew about this development, she wondered how he would take it. Biting her lower lip, she watched her family as they waved, they were sending her away. Cassandra held a trimphant look- an ear to ear grin ******** Williams lay on his back, his eyes set on the ceiling. Did he make the right decision? She was his favourite, he loved her, but she would be holding hate for him. honey... Barbra shook her husband. Yea..uhm..howdo... He tried not to act startled. are you alright? Yes, yea Im. He sat up. Thinking about Sasha? She asked yea.. he rubbed his head. I know shell be fine. Yea. Williams nodded. The kids are waiting at he dinning. Barbra pulled him up. hy dad. Cassandra sang how are you all? Williams managed to say. Fine Kola replied Dad? He hesitated. Why did you send Sasha away? Its was so urgent...Dad its very bad, cos of alittle mistake she made? tears filled his eyes. Williams sighed letting his spoon drop Is that why you want to cry? Cassandra eyed him. Cassie you caused it all, as if you dont do worse than that? he retorted Watch you tongue! Cassandra said infuriated. Thats enough. Lets eat. Barbra said firmly. Im not hungry. Kola pushed himself up. Fine, allow us eat in peace. Cassandra picked up her spoon. Sashas gonna hate us all for this. Watchout! Kola snapped his finger in emphasis. kola sit down Williams found his voice. No dad. Kola walked away. Come back here! Barbra yelled Let him be. williams raised his glass to his lips. Episode 6 @7pm
