PREDICTION (EPISODE 15)

MMA: Dad, i'm sorry.

PA MMA: Sorry? What for?

MMA: I lied about Pascal being the father of my child.

PA MMA: Lied? Why? I asked you in his presence and you looked me in the eye and told me he is the one responsible despite the fact he was swearing he wasnt the one responsible, i didnt believe him because i trusted you.

MMA: Dad, pascal isnt who he claims and appears to be, he isnt the perfect man we both believed him to be. I did what i did out of annoyance. And i'm very sorry i lied.

PA MMA: How do you mean he is the man we both thought him to be?

MMA: Pascal tried to threathen Victory, he tried to manipulate my junior sister into sleeping with him, telling her he would cancel this wedding if she refused to let him have his way.

PA MMA: **Phone rings** Where are you now? *** Alright. She is home right now. *** No problem. Just be on time.***

MMA: Dad, who was that?

PA MMA: Oh that? That was PASCAL. He's coming over so you guys would go for the pregnancy test. I called him this morning.

MMA: Why would you do that? You promised i had all the time in the world to think about it and tell you the truth, why would you go behind my back and conact him?

PA MMA: Maybe i was just tired of waiting for your reply. I expected a direct and immediate reply from you when i asked you that question. I trusted you, but i wanted to be sure i'm on the right side, i wanted to be sure you're still the MMA i used to know. But i guess not.

MMA: Dad, i'm sorry, i'm sorry i lied to you before, but trust me when i tell you i have my reasons.

PA MMA: What reasons? Which reasons are strong enough to make you betray the trust i had in you. A guy who loves you with everything in him, a guy that has always been faithful and true to you and this family. You expect me to believe that Pascal would stoop too low to the extent of asking your sister to sleep with him?

MMA: Thats the TRUTH.

PA MMA: You were pregnant before that happened, thats if it truly happened. So how do you explain the pregnancy? You've been cheating on him? Someone you're to get married to?

MMA: I dont LOVE him.

PA MMA: You dont love him? Then why did you accept his proposal in the first place? If you dont love him, why did you accept to marry him? Why did you accept to spend the rest of your life with him?

MMA: Truth is, i just felt PITY on him, he was always dusturbing and pressuring me, sending me texts and calls that made me develop this form of sympathy for him.

PA MMA: Who is the father of that child you're carrying in your WOMB?

MMA: ***The father of my child is... **Pascal knocks on the door and came in***

PA MMA: You're here already.

PASCAL: Yes sir. Good Afternoon. My car is outside.

PA MMA: Lets get going then. MMA, lock the door.

MMA: Dad, why are you doing this?

PA MMA: To verify my suspicions. ***To Pascal*** Which Hospital are we headed to?

PASCAL: My personal hospital. I trust the doctors there.

PA MMA: Alright. I just want this settled once and for all.

PASCAL: ***Phone rings*** Guy, how far?

TONY: I'm fine O. Where are you now? Its very important and Urgent that i see you.

PASCAL: So Fast? Whats the matter?

TONY: Where are you?

PASCAL: I'm on my way to the hospital with MMA and her dad to do the pregnancy test, you can meet us there if its really that urgent.

TONY: Thats where i am right now.

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

AUSTIN: Guy, i'm scared O. I dont know why? I've just been having this strange this feeling for some days now. I have this strong feeling something bad is going to happen soon.

GUY: Soon? Just be straight.

AUSTIN: The guys we sent to eradicate MMA'S pregnancy, have they left town as you said they would?

GUY: Like seriously? How long has it been? And you're still scared of being caught? Trust me when i tell you that those boys would rather die than expose any of us. Besides, i should be the one scared, not you.

AUSTIN: Hmmm...

GUY: How about your dad? How did he take your decision?

AUSTIN: Not Good. I shouldnt have told him about MMA in the first place. It seems all he is after is a child and nothing more. I already told him i'll be getting married to OLUCHI, but it doesnt too good to his ears.

GUY: Hmmm...

AUSTIN: I'm gradually begining to like that girl sha. She is quite different from all the girls i've ever been with. She has this unique quality that i really admire.

GUY: Unique quality, in what aspect?

AUSTIN: Her curves and natural endowed appearance. She seem to be quite good at making good use of it.

GUY: Ha!! Austin!! You don dey sleep with OLUCHI ni?

AUSTIN: Not really. I'm just carrying out a personal test on her special skills in the bedroom. You dont expect me to get married to a lady who would later turn out to be a sexual novice in the future. Do you?

GUY: Of course not. See as you dey yarn English. As your friend, make i advice you, try as much as possible to get her pregnant, because thats the only way to take your father's eyes off MMA and her pregnacy for you.

AUSTIN: How did you know?

GUY: How did i know what?

AUSTIN: That was my plan all along. I guess i've told you before.

GUY: No O. You havent told me before O. I just figured it out by myself O.

AUSTIN: You're indeed a good friend.

GUY: You see? Thats more reason why you should always hang around with me.

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

MIKE: ***While doing a cleanup one saturday morning, he came across the letter OLUCHI gave to him some days back saying its from her friend. He picked it up, opened the letter and sat down to read.

*Dear Mike, I dont want to waste much of your life so ill make this short. Right from high school, i've always loved and admired you, i was just too scared to make a move, i prayed to God everyday that you would notice me, but things didnt go my way. I love you Mike and i wish you can do the same, the fact i being a female had to open to you should tell you how much i love you. Would be waitinf for you reply. -Dami*

MIKE: Awww! Life can be such a bitch. While i've been doing all i can, trying to show MMA how much i care, and she still doesnt appreciate it, someone else is out there wishing i would just notice her.

-------------------------—------

PA AUSTIN sleeping one hot afternoon, then had a dream about his past.

************
PA AUSTIN: I have the money here doctor. Please perform the surgery and give my son back his full life.

DOCTOR: Pastor, things have changed now. There is no match for your son's kidney yet. I've placed an order worldwide but no one has come forth yet. Remember i told you how rare his kidney his, the reason i paid such amount of money for it in the first place.

PA AUSTIN: So what would you have me do? Huh? Doctor, i dont want this boy to die, even if he's gonna survive, you said he's gonna die before the age of thirty, it aint fair, i didnt give the life to him, so who am i to take it?

DOCTOR: Maybe you should have thought of that before bringing him in here, pleading to sell his kidney. You have your church now, you are a popular man of God with many members, so what makes you think you can eat your cake and have it?

PA AUSTIN: This isnt about eating your CAKE and having it, you told me i can replace his kidney whenever i have the money, now i have the money, enough of it, and you're telling me stories of CAKE?

DOCTOR: There is nothing i can do, i can only ask you to wait and pray that your son's match come up soon enough. At least, he is still healthy and is living fine, so i dont see a reason why you should even be panicking.*****
