SECOND CHANCE EPISODE 6

Episode 6

How dare you use your hands on me, you filthy
w---e!’ he said pushing her to the sofa roughly
and removing his belt.
‘i am going to teach you a lesson of your life’ he
said as he fell on Alice
‘let go of me Gilbert, you cannot have your
way
with me’ she said struggling for breath but that
only got her a slap from Gilbert
‘shut up filthy woman! You are mine and mine
alone! No one can take you from me’ he said
attempting to tear Alice’s shirt but luckily for her,
the door flung open. Alice had been wise enough
not to lock the door from the inside. Amy walked in
surprised at the scene she saw. Gilbert quickly
came off Alice, adjusted his clothes, shot Amy a
murderous look and stormed out of the house
angrily.
Alice was gasping for breath by the time Gilbert
left.
‘Alice, what did my eyes just see now?’ Amy asked.
Alice burst into tears weeping uncontrollably.

‘Kofo, where did you go?’ mr. Fred asked
immediately Kofo entered the house.
‘i went to talk sense into that silly daughter of
ours’ Kofo said as she fell on the sofa
‘you went to Alice’s house? What of Felix?’ mr.
Fred asked
‘i didnt get to see him, he must have gone to
school’ Kofo said
‘so what did you tell her? I know you Kofo, i hope
you did not lash out on her?’
‘i only told her the truth. That girl has gone mad
ever since Benjamin died. Sometimes i cant help
but wonder if their souls are tied together’ Kofo
hissed
‘try to understand her Kofo, it was not easy you
know. They were so close to being married before
his untimely demise. Okay, how would you have
felt if you had lost me a week to our wedding and
then you found out you were carrying my baby?’
mr. Fred asked.
Kofo inhaled deeply ‘truth be told, i will be
miserable but i will learn to move on and about
carrying your baby before marriage, that would
have been almost impossible because i would not
have slept with when we were’nt married. Alice
was just a naive girl. If she hadnt surrendered
herself to Benjamin before marriage and gotten
pregnant, she would have been married by now. It
was by grace that i welcomed her after that.
Maybe it was because of what she was passing
through’ Kofo said leaving mr. Fred in awe
‘KOFO! What are you saying?’
‘the truth my dear, Alice disappointed me, she
disappointed us. All the advice i gave her when she
was growing up, she rubbed it all on my face. She
proved to me that i was just wasting my time’ Kofo
said shaking her head in disappointment.
‘she loved Benjamin so much, that was why…..’
‘are you trying to say that i never loved you when
we were courting?’ Kofo asked
‘i never said so Kofo. You know new generation
courtship is different from that of the olden days’
‘thats a lie Fred. It was Alice’s decision to be
useless to herself and her family!’
‘Kofo! Mind your language. I wont tolerate you
calling my daughter names’ mr. Fred said suddenly
becoming angry.
‘oh, she is now your daughter, not mine again. Let
it continue to be so’ she said leaving the sitting
room.
