My mother-in-law 4&5

My Mother Inlaw đŸŁđŸ„

EPISODE 4

I don’t know what happened next but I saw papa being lifted up and moved outside in a haste,mama couldn’t stop shouting and crying
joy and faith kept pointing fingers and spatting at me.

I was in a trance,I keep hoping that somebody will wake me up or better still, nothing should happen to papa

“I said it!!!,I said it ooo but nobody will believe me”mama cried and sat on the floor

“Bia
.if anything happens to my husband,you will regret the day your mother have birth to you!!!”

“Shameless prostitute from the east,Let anything happen happen to my father first”joy added and i didn’t show any emotions,I wasn’t moved at all by their words

“KPAAA!!!!” A plank landed heavily on my back painfully and i gave out a Loud scream

“Youre forming iron Lady ba!!!how dare you poison my father in law,how dare you!!” The girl I recognised as chiamanda hit me and gave me a hard slap

I became weak and cried
.yes I cried not because of the pain from the slap or plank but my

My stupidly to let someone else have accessed to the food I was preparing,my tears increased when emeka saw me sitting down on the ground with and passed me

My mother in law came and threw sand in my eyes cursing me with their language

I stood up staggering with pains in my eyes to look for water by someone held me and I felt myself being lifted up,I cried the more when I realised its emeka

“I know you didn’t do it but I’m really finding it hard to believe
..I mean you were the one who served papa food”

“I didn’t do it believe me,I will never poison papa,I swear”i cried in agony

“My instincts tells me it’s chiamanda but who will believe me,where is the proof
I just hope for my dad’s recovery,the doctor said we brought him on time we were assured that he’ll be fine ” I sniffed and snuggled closer to him. Once papa is okay,I’m leaving this house..this people are capable of killing.

The door burst open!!!and mama barged in and dragged me outside the outside the house, bruises and cuts were all over my skin and despite my shouts and pleadings,this woman kept dragging me on the floor

“You locust from the pit of hell!!after killing my husband,you went over to seduce my son with your witchcraft..how dare you!!!”

Mama screamed at me and I realised I was surrounded by chiefs and clan of that community

“Woman!what type of poison did you use on his food,tell us so that we’ll now the best way to heal him”one of the elders said and I broke down crying

“I
.I
..I

“AHH!!!ÓrĂ© mi,Ki lĂ© lĂšyi(my friend what’s all these)” Bisi exclaimed

Bisi was the only yoruba friend i had there,she was living next compound and we share things together,she came for holiday at her grandma’s place ,do you remember the other day I went out to cool off??
.I actually went to their place

“I’m doomed!!,I’m being accused of poisoning my father in law ooo”

“Ah what rubbish na,I came to return the matches I borrowed emeka this morning I the kitchen,was it not ebuka that I saw preparing efo riro this morning

The aroma was so killing so i came over to ask you for the special ingredient you used only for me to see ebuka in the kitchen

I was very surprised that ebuka could cook and he even dropped this,I saw him putting this red seasoning in the pot and I came here to ask you why you haven’t told me about it” Bisi said and the whole place got silent

“You say what???!!!”

“Yes na
where’s ebuka sef, I even want to use it to prepare food for my grandma and uncle,I just came here to confirm from you first”

Every body was still in surprise until one of the elders collected the seasoning from her and confirmed that it’s a native poison

The whole crown was shaken and even mama fell on her knees crying,ebuka and emeka were not around so the chiefs postponed the meeting till evening

As for me, I’ve never felt better and stronger right now. I cleaned myself up and entered the bush to look for long fresh sticks,I gathered pieces of the sticks and sharpened the edges

I went to the market and purchased fresh pepper and grinded it in the local way

Somebody will feel my wrath

(SEMI FINALE)

“Where’s that useless ayo of a girl!!how dare she accused me” ebuka’s voice could be heard outside as he stomps his buffalo feet inside the kitchen

I was so unmoved by his actions that I really concentrated on my grinding,he kicked my grinding stone and the pepper away while shouting

“Are you mad?!!what did you tell the elders” I wasn’t prepared for this but he really pushed me,I rubbed my hand on the pepper mixed with the sand and gave him a resetting slap on both cheeks

“You are mad for pouring my pepper away
if you aren’t the one that poison the the food,why are you bothered?why are you scared? You didn’t poison the food,fine! Wait till the elders arrive and explain yourself” he raised his hands to hit me but emeka barged in and pushed him away from my sight

“I will tolerate anything but you dare not lay your hands on my fiancee,I don’t care if you’re my elder brother or not
.I will beat you to stupor”

“You ingrate,so you will let a woman come in between your family
what sort of man are you??”

“Im a man of truth and i stand for what’s right and rebuke what’s wrong and whatever you and mama did will soon be brought to light
you both will have to explain why you planned to poison me,oh!

You think I don’t know,you people actually thought she was preparing the food for me and went over to poison the food,kudos to all of you” emeka clapped and i stood there in shock

He dragged my hands and took me inside

“Dress up to something nice,the meeting has already started”he sounded really hurt and wounded

“Is papa okay?”i ask

“Yes ,he’s back and he’s with he elders”he said and i heave a sigh if relief

I want to talk to him so bad,I want to ask him how he got to know about the poison stuff but I shove it at the back of my mind
I will ask him when all this is over

I removed the polo and baggy shorts I was wearing into an armless long gown,I opened the door but was stunned to see Chiamanda. She almost fell down cause the position I caught her was so funny
so she was eaves dropping,I smiled sweetly at her and told her to come inside ,she resisted and wanted to go back but I dragged her inside with force

“Emy
you can go,I want to have a tete a tete discussion with Chi,we won’t take up to 15 minutes” i tell him and just went out without saying a word

” Who sent you!! And why were you eavesdropping?” I asked her and she stammered

I have her a thunder slap that sent her crashing to the ground

She screamed screamed in terror,crying and pleading

“Wó tin gba fó óju ù(look if I break your eyes) you will get madder than the mad people on the streets

“Pepper oo!!my eyes oo,chimoo
hei..don’t be angry NNE pls water Biko oo”

“Biko kó,becombion ní
if you don’t start talking,the way I’ll beat you ehn,you will be the first person to enter hell fire with wheel chair”

“Biko it’s mama oo,she was the master planner of everything to poison emeka but she didn’t know that the food was for papa
.she was trying to set you up ooo”she kept rubbing her eyes crying

“Ah!!! Óri Ă© ti bajĂš,and you even had the mind to hit me with me with a plank
Chi Fanta,you’re dead

Oya oya continue”

“That’s all ok,I just wanted to hear what you people are saying”she said and i kicked her out ofy room to join the meeting,I will deal with her later

The meeting was already hot as I saw ebuka kneeling and pleading for forgiveness,the poison was presented before him and he could no longer deny it

He was given a heavy fine to pay and he was to spend 6months in their community prison for attempted murder

He was given this light punishment because his father is one of the prominent elder of that community,so they couldn’t kill him

Mama was the main culprit here and she didn’t show any atom of remorse

Everything they did was out of pure jealousy,but I just wanted to know why she would want to poison her a son

So I curiously asked and she shouted

” EMEKA’S NOT MY SON!!! HE’S NOT MY SON!!!
