Fine am out of here.
"Where are you going?" Ken was
afraid that maybe he has offset
her and that is why she is reacting
that way.
"I hope I’ve not done anything that
will put me in detention," he want
after her just to make sure.
"My love where are you going?"
he ask again.
"Am off to see my father, I will see
you when I come back."
"Can I come with you?"
"No, just stay at home and look
after the children."
"Ok, but I hope everything is ok."
"Yea, why?"
"Ohh.. nothing is fine you can
go", Ken said breathing a sigh
of relieve.
"Dad how are you today?" Gina
greeted her father when she
entered the house.
"Am not fine,"
"What is it?"
"She left me."
"Who left you?"
"Your stepmom left me."
"Why?"
"Can’t you see why, I can’t be of
any help to her that is why, and I
don’t blame her, why will she suffer
with me when there is no money?"
"So is all about money?" Gina ask.
"Well for some women is all
about money."
"What are you going to do now?"
Gina ask.
"I don’t know my dear, I can’t
walk, I can’t do anything for myself."
"Ok, I know what to do, you are
coming with me."
"What! no..no.. I don’t want to
be a burden to your family."
"Dad you are not a burden to
my family, you are my father."
"I know, but what about your
husband, will he accept me
staying at your house?"
"Why not, Ken is not like that,
and if he dares to say anything
about you staying with us, I will
not think twice leaving him."
"No my dear, you see? That is
why I said no, just leave me here, I
will be fine."
"No dad, I can’t leave you here,
we are going to my places", Gina
start parking his bag.
She took her father home and
prepared a room for him.
"You didn’t tell me you are
bringing your father over." Ken ask.
"Do I have to take permission
before my father can come into
my house?" Gina ask almost ready
to query with Ken.
"We are not fighting, am only
asking a question," Ken said.
"Stop asking me such silly
questions, he is my father, and
I have the right to bring him here".
"Fine, is fine, I didn’t ask you to
send him away, I only ask."
Gina walked away while Ken
was still talking.
"What is going on? Ken began
to wonder, "have I done anything
wrong that I don’t know?" He let her
be for the moment, and went to
Mr. George’s room to greet him.
"How are you doing sir?"
"My son, thank you for having
me in your house, I hope I will
not be a burden to you?"
"No..no..no…no.. Ken said, there
is no problem at all, you are free to
stay here for as long as you want."
"Ok, thank you" Mr. George said.
Ken and George talked for a
long time before Ken left him
alone.
"Why didn’t you tell me your
stepmom left your father?"
Ken ask just to make Gina talk
to him.
"Now you know," Gina said without
looking at Ken.
"Ok, I have had it, tell me what
is wrong with you, because I know
that I have not offended you today."
"You have not offended me
today but you have been offending
me ever since". Gina turned to
face Ken.
"What is happening here?, Gina
is me Ken, what is going on? Did
someone offend you? Tell me."
"Just leave me alone, and stay
away from me."
Ken left the room and went
outside to think if he has offend
her without knowing.
"But I don’t think if I have done
anything to offend her apart from
the discussion about Peter and
his baby mama."
"Ok," Ken turn back to go inside.
"Gina am sorry for bringing
Peter’s matter at home, I will not
do it again but please can you
just talk to me? let’s go back to
the way we use to live, I don’t like
it when we are fighting."
"Who is fighting with you? Gina
ask, go and give your baby
mama two million while you lie
about Peter with baby mama, do
I look like a baby? Why can’t you
go straight and bring her home
just the way you did with Victoria.
Look, don’t get me angry or I will
throw that boy Timothy out of my
house, and for your information,
let me not see that woman in this
house, or I will go to jail because
of her."
Ken was dumfounded, is this
what is all about? I thought I was
being a good husband by Telling her,
I don’t know that am making
things worst. How do I handle this
now? And that woman is going
to come tomorrow, what will I do?"
Ken keep thinking how best to
give the money to the woman
so Gina will not find out and at the
same time get his Gina back,
because the one he is looking at
right now is a different Gina.
"Look, Gina if is about that woman,
I must tell you the truth, is peter’s
baby mama, I don’t even know her."
"You liar, you know her, she is
you baby mama, and I must tell
you this today, if you by any
chance bring in another child in
here to tell me stories again, all hell
will break loose."
"That will never happen ok,
don’t even think about it, that will
never happen." Ken keep looking
for how to calm Gina down.
"Hmm, two million for a baby
mama, how much have you given
me since I get married to you?
Tell me, how much,? I have been
the one spending for myself just
because I love you, but all you
ever give to me is throwing insult
at me by bringing in children and
baby mama."
"Ok fine, from today I will always
give you all the money I have so
you can be the one to handle it,
are you ok with that?"
"Gina breath a sign of relieve."
"Is he really going to do that?"
She ask herself.
"I don’t what you getting angry,
it doesn’t make me happy, please
stop it, I will never cheat on you
again I promise it will never
happen again."
"Is ok, I’ve heard you, let’s go to
bed is late, Gina took ken by the
hand, lets walk round the house
a little for fresh air. Ken said.
"Madam, who are you looking
for?" The gateman ask the
stranger.
"Oga ask me to come and
collect money today."
"Which oga is that?" The gateman
ask.
"He gave me this address and
ask me to come here. I don't know
his name".
"Wait here, let me go and tell him."
"Ok, the woman said and start
looking around the house.
"What are you looking for?"
Gina ask the gateman.
"Am looking for oga."
"What for?"
"There is a woman at the gate,
she said she is looking for oga,
and that she want to collect
money."
"What? Money for what?"
"I don’t know madam."
"Let me see that woman."
"OMG, this oga is a very rich
man, and he is behaving like that.
If it was that Stupid Peter, the
world will not hear anything from
his bragging, the women keep
saying.
Gina walk to the gate.
"Yes, what do you want?"
"Good morning ma" the lady
greeted Gina bowing.
Am looking for one oga, he said
I should come today."
"Gina scanned the woman up
and down, is this the woman Ken
was talking about yesterday?
She wondered.
"What do you want with him.?"
"He ask me to come today
and collect money."
"Are you peter’s baby mama."
"No.. and peter’s girlfriend."
"Hmm, I see, come inside."
Gina let her in, relieve that Ken
was telling the truth, because
from the look of this woman her
Ken will never say hi to her. She
know the type of woman that Ken
is likely to date.
"Sit," Gina offer the woman a sit.
"So tell me how did you know
peter and how come my husband
is the one giving you two million
for your up keep and what will
you do with two million, you
know that is a huge money right?."
The woman just looked at Gina
and wonder that Ken already told
his wife about the money, what a
good man to have.
"Are you not hearing me? I just
ask you a question". Gina said.
"I heard you, but I was wondering,
did your husband tell you about the
money he wants to give me?"
"Yes, why not."
"Hmmm, then you have a good
husband my dear, not every
woman is that luckily.
As for me, I am the most
unfortunate woman on earth."
"Why did you say so."
"Can’t you see, is your husband
that is giving me money to feed my
baby and myself while the so call
man that got me pregnant cannot
do anything, he just playing me
up and down. May God bless you
and your husband for helping
me out.
And as for your other question,
I will use the money to start a
business and I will never forget
your kindness towards me."
Gina listen with all the attention
in the world.
