**LARAS FAITH** EPISODE 14 ...Good morning sir!” Lara greeted her father in-law as she wheeled Tony towards the waiting car. “Hope you slept well?” Ifiora said as he helped Tony into the car.“Fine sir.” Lara smiled.“Errm… I’l be going to see my mother, sheasked me to come over.” Lara told Tony. “Okay, then, see ya later.” he waved at her. She waved and watch them drive away. She suddenly wished Tony won’t ever geton his feet, atleast, so that he would continue to be nice. Mum you asked to see me.” Lara said with a frown, she was getting irritated by her mother’s silence. “Yes Lara, my daughter. Hmm.” funke said with a sigh. “So?” Lara’s frown grew deeper. “hmm, Lara omo mi, you know I love you, you are my only child…” Funke began meditatively. Lara laughed quitely, this woman didn’t call her over to tell her that.“Meanwhile, how’s Tony’s health?” Funke didn’t look happy.“They just left for the hospital this morning, he’ll be better soon, he’l be flown to Cairo next three months.” Lara explained.“Shey you know, his spinal cord was affected during the accident?”Funke said in a faint voice.“yes I know, that’s why he’s on a wheel chair, and he’ll be better soon..” Lara said impatience creeping into her voice.“Let me talk Lara and stop trying to defend Tony’s illness!” her mother shot at her.Lara fell silent, was she defending Tony..“ Lara you have to end this marriage.” Funke said carelessly.“Which marriage?” Lara’s eyebrow creased“ Tony is not worth you! You shold file a divorce, you can’t hook yourself with a disabled for life…” Funke explained.Lara rolled her eyes. “Mummy what did you drink this morning?” she laughed.“Are trying to insult me?” Funke’s voice rose. “Noo…just that, Tony used to be your favourite.” Lara explained still laughing. “What I’m saying is that you must divorceTony, you can’t saddle yourself with such a burden, this was a man who was maltreating you…”“ehen! Mum you are so incredible!” Lara interrupted her.“Where were you when he maltreated me? What did you do when he turned me into a punching bag? Aren’t the sameperson who rocked the boat of the marriage cos of money? You made me go through hell!” Lara said anger creeping into her voice.“Hold on! And let me talk!” Lara rose up when her mother tried to speak up. “Do I look like some commodity you can use to trade? Now that Tony is ill, you feel he can no longer fulfill your selfish needs, you want me to divorce him right? Perhaps you want to marry me off to someone else again abi?” “No Lara! I’m only concerned about you and myself! You must divorce Tony. I need a grandchild!” funke shot at her.“What has a grandchild got to do with Tony’s illness?” Lara fired back.“Tony isn’t only crippled, he’s impotent! The accident rendered him impotent!” Funke screamed.Lara stoped momentarily, what’s her mother trying to say. “I beg your pardon…what did you just say?” her voice was low.“oh yes! The affected spinal cord did not only affect his legs, it affected his manhood! Your husband can’t perform anymore!” Funke shrilled.“Perform as in how?” Lara couldn’t help asking. “He can’t make love to you! Can you go on like this? No se-x, no child bearing…no…..no…. Lara, try to understand me!” Funke explained.“Mum…you mean..you mean…” her voice trailed off. She felt sweat trickling down her face.“You see, my daughter, you can’t go on like that. Even if he gets on his feet again, there’s no possibility that he would be able to perform anymore.” Funke said triumphantly. Lara thought for a while, she began pacing up and down the room sweating profusely. She stoped abruptly facing hermother.“Well, Tony had never made love to me, so even this isn’t a new development..” she began to say. “Haaa! Lara please don’t do this o! I needa grandchild! You want your father’s name to be wiped off the earth?” Funke held her daughter.Lara smiled mischievously, she had wanted an opportunity to get back at hermother, this was a chance.“Well, mum, I don’t think you need a grandchild, if you did, you wouldn’t have made me suffer all I suffered. This is what you want, you must live with it. Continue to enjoy more money!” Lara sneered.“I need to leave now!” Lara picked her bag.“Lara please..” funke tried to hold her.“Take you hands off me!” Lara pushed her away.“I hate you!” Lara told her tears streaming down her cheeks.“ You hear me? I said I hate you! I would never forgive you! You ruined my life…” Lara sniffed, before storming out of the house. Story continues #Isppatrick
