PREDICTION (EPISODE 14)

AUSTIN: I'm sorry i didnt confront you before concluding easily. If i had erased that thought within that day, i could have saved you.

OLUCHI: Nah, its OK. You are not at fault. The decision was mine to make, i should have ran away instead of letting him have his way.

AUSTIN: You were just a kid, what did you know? All your focus was excelling academically, you are just very lucky he didnt get you pregnant.

OLUCHI: Yea. I guess so. But Austin, you being here, in my house, does it mean that... that...

AUSTIN: That i've decided to marry you? Yes. If thats what you wanted to say, Yes i've decided to go along with the wedding plans. I've decided to give in to the pressure and make you my life partner even though i no longer love you as i once did when we were in HIGH-SCHOOL.

OLUCHI: Thank you so much. *Blushing and Smiling Uncontrollably* I promise you wont regret it, i promise to make you the happiest man on earth, to be the best wife any woman can possibly be and deny you nothing you need that i can afford. *Tries to HUG HIM but he avoided it*

AUSTIN: We have to start from scratch. Even after getting married, there are some steps we have to gradually observe and follow before attaining a certain level of intimacy between us.

OLUCHI: Alright. I'm fine with that. As long as you dont hate me anymore as you once did.

-----------------------------------

MIKE: *Barged into her room without knocking the door. Her parents and Victory went to an occasion so she was all alone in the apartment.* MMA, why? Of all people? *Yelling at the top of his voice* Of all the people you can sleep with, it had to be Austin? Of all the guys you can get pregnant for, it had to be Austin?

MMA: Austin? Who told you that? Who told you Austin is responsible for my pregnancy? What makes you think so?

MIKE: Dont play dumb with me MMA, stop making me feel like a FOOL because i know exactly what i am saying. So stop pretending and cut the crap. Why didnt you tell me?

MMA: I felt you'd be ashamed of me.

MIKE: What makes you think so?

MMA: I still recall the time i told you i cant be friends with such a guy, not to talk of dating him, and now i'm pregnant for him. To make matters worse, i'm asking you to take his place and suffer for what you didnt do.

MIKE: Its OK. I'm just Furious you hid it from me. I'm just furious you didnt tell me he is the one right from the start. So what do you plan to do now?

MMA: If i tell my dad you are the one responsible, once my dad knows Pascal is Innocent, the marriage would automatically be cancelled.

MIKE: And i believe thats exactly what you want, right? You never loved him, it makes me wonder why you accepted to marry him in the first place.

MMA: He was caring, he was loving, he respected my wishes, put my happiness before his, cherished and treated me like a queen, pampered and pet me like i'm his baby. Even though i never loved him, i have this strong feeling that one day, ill certainly grow feelings for him.

MIKE: Thats what you think? You think feelings can just appear like some Ghost? Havent you seen women fall in love with men that maltreats them and even knowing that, they still refuse to leave? Its not about his actions towards you, its about your body's chemistry.

MMA: Yea, i just learnt that.

MIKE: I treated you the same way, i respected your wishes, i showed you care, and you told me you loved me, that you were scared to leave me, then why did you BREAK my heart?

MMA: Micheal, i've always loved you, and i still do. If i dont love you, i wont be pleading with you to stand as the father of my child. Austin is there, willing to accept that responsibility in the blink of an eye, but still, i choose to plead with you to take that position. Havent you noticed that you're the one i always run to, even when i say i dont want you anymore, i'm always clingy and close to you.

MIKE: Then why cant you date me? Why cant we be together? I accept you the way you are, i accept that child in your womb, it changes nothing, not even the way i look at you. So whats stopping us from being together if we are so much in love with each other? Just give me another chance to make things right, i promise it wont be a decision you'll live to regret.

MMA: Hmmm.

----------------------------------

VICTORY: I have disturbing news, very disturbing news.

FUNMI: Speak to me. Whats the matter?

VICTORY: Some weeks back, my sister was kidnapped by some thugs, paid and sent to eradicate her husband's baby. Now i know not who sent them or who hired them rather, but i do know it wont and cant be her husband.

FUNMI: So... What are you trying to get at?

VICTORY: No living soul knows about what i just told you except you and the Victim, my sister. David confronted me yesterday threatening me with my sister's pregnancy. He said he's going to expose her to the world if i dont willingly let him have his way with me, but one thing he never knew was that, its not something i really care about. She's getting married soon so its no big deal.

FUNMI: Hmmm. Go on...

VICTORY: David knew my sister was kidnapped, how did he get that information? How did he know she was pregnant if he didnt aid in the act?

FUNMI: You believe David kidnapped her?

VICTORY: I'm just 30% positive, but i would like you to keep a tab on my elder sister. I have this strong feeling he is going to try something stupid just to lure me to bed.

FUNMI: I think ill get the POLICE involved.

VICTORY: The Police?

FUNMI: Yes. I'm in a fraternity, True. I'm their Leader, True. But there are some things beyond our capabilities, we all have our limitations, but when it gets to kidnapping, i think ill refer to a more higher form of power.

VICTORY: I thought being in a cult is all about killing, respect, power and being superior to others.

FUNMI: Respect, Yes. Power, Yes. Superior, Yes. But killing, kidnapping? Thats outside my boundary. I can only threaten to do some of these things just to instill fear into anyone and manipulate them to do my bid.

VICTORY: Alright. Just do whatever you have to do to keep my sister safe and free from harm. If anything should happen to her because of me, ill never forgive myself.

-----------------------------------

PASCAL: Trust me, i'm even scared of going for that pregnancy test, what if it turns out that i am the father of the baby even though i'n not? What if biologically, the medical equipment checks the most recent person she had sex with to determine the one that impregnate her?

TONY: Haba! Pascal, Relax na. Chill Out. You are not responsible for that pregnancy and there is nothing anyone can do to make you accept that baby if you wish not to.

PASCAL: Alright. Let me believe that. Ill be going for a fertility test this afternoon to see how possible is it that i'm likely to be the father of a child, not just her child, any child.

TONY: How do you mean?

PASCAL: I've only used protection once in my life and i've slept with more than a dozen girls, and in all these time, none of them has ever walked up to me and accuse me of getting her pregnant. MMA is the first lady to do that.

TONY: What are you then trying to imply? Many girls out there use birth control pills so stop thinking that far. You are medically perfectly humanly alright.

PASCAL: Yea i know. But just to be on a safe side. I have no siblings, i'm an only child, my dad was infertile so i was termed a miracle child. There is a 80% chance that i have his traits. I have a lot of doubts, just to clear them, i have to go for the test.

*****3 Hours Later*****

PASCAL: So Doctor, Am I Alright?

DOCTOR: Well, you'll have to return 3 days later. The test result would be out by then. You can leave your phone number and Email so it'll be forwarded to you if you dont have the time to come over to the hospital.

PASCAL: Alright sir. Thanks a lot.

TONY: Doctor, is there no other way faster than this to ascertain and verify his fertility? This my friend here is very curious and i doubt he'll sleep for 3 nights until he gets the result.

DOCTOR: There are faster ways, but this process is usually used to give a result that is 99% correct. Your friend here said he wanted to be very sure, thats why i recommended this method.

PASCAL: Hey, its OK. I can wait. Isnt it just 3 days? So whats the big deal. I'M SORRY for the interference Doctor. Once again, Thanks A Lot for everything.
