Uche
I was in a very good mood despite the noise my Siblings were making. They were fighting over a piece of meat. Twenty_ year old Chidubem was obviously trying to cheat the twin girls, Chinasa and Chinonye. They were arguing hotly over the size of the meat he had given them. I started whistling to block out their annoying voices. I closed my eyes, visualizing Dupe’s beautiful face. She was the first person i saw on entering the church premises. She wore a black and white strip gown that was well fitted and it brought out her slim figure well. On her head was a black beret. She was an usher, she had given me a warm smile and directed me to a seat. After the service, i lingered outside until she came out and i swiftly secured a date for the next day. Chinonye started crying as Dubem gave her a knock on the head for daring to challenge his authority.
” Ejima, kedu ife na_eme e be a ” Mama asked, walking into the sitting room. She was a light skinned woman in her fifties, she was tall and fat. She wiped her hands on her wrapper, glancing briefly in my direction. She walked to the section we had made our dinning. ” What is going on here?”
” Mama, bro Dubem knocked Nonye on her head” Chinasa replied, eyeing him.
” Dubem! Since when did you become Bach Ali? Why are you terrorizing your younger sisters?”
” Mama they don’t want to accept the pieces of meat i gave them. They want me to share it equally”
” So you are fighting over meat ehn? where are the pieces of meat? put it on the plate let me see.” They all dropped their piece back into the plate. Mama lifted up the plate, gathered the three pieces of meat and threw them into her mouth. ” ungrateful children! how many of your father’s family has meat to eat? how many times have they brought even a cup of garri to give to their late brother’s children? If i hear peem again ehn,” She went into her room and shouted my name.
I stood up to answer her call. My family and i lived in a three bedroom flat. My mom had one room to herself, i also had one to myself as the eldest child, Chidubem and the twins shared a room with bunk beds.
” Mama, you called me” I said.
” Biko sit down, Uchenna, ”
I sat down on the stool in the room.
” Why were you not in church today?”
” I went to see a friend”
” So that your friend is bigger than God? what was so urgent that couldn’t wait after mass.”
” Who said i didn’t go to church today? I went to see a friend in another church ”
” Hia! Uchenna! which church?”
” Mama what is this nah? why are you questioning me like this?” I asked with anger.
” Nna calm down nah, i was worried when i didn’t see you during or after service.” She said softly, ” Which one of your friends did you visit?”
” You don’t know her mama. She’s a girl i just met and i am interested in her”
” What is her name? is she also a catholic? ” She asked, frowning.
” No. Her name is Dupe ”
” Chineke! Uche kukuma kill me nah, ehn, how could you be interested in a girl that is not catholic? she’s not even an ibo girl. There are several beautiful and decent girls in St. Paul’ s but Mba, it is agbero you want! Yoruba! Tufiakwa! Will your father hear this and not turn in his grave?”
” Mama, i am no longer a child. I am old enough to differentiate between good and bad. Dupe is a decent girl and she’s also from a christian home. As a matter of fact, her father is a pastor.” I stood up.” You will change your view of the yorubas once you get to meet her ”
” I don’t want to meet her! Uche! Uche! Uche! How many times did i call you? I don’t want you to have anything to do with her!” She shouted,” I will not sit and watch you throw your life away ”
I laughed and hugged her, she tried to push my hands away. ” Mama! You haven’t even met this girl o. You don’t know anything about her but you have already written her off. Trust your son nah, you know i can’t go for what is not good. I assure you that you will like her, but you won’t meet her now. It is too early for that.”
” I don’t trust you o and i don’t want to meet her! ” Mama said, ” ask Nasa and Nonye to come put my room in order when they finish eating”
” OK.” I said, ” Mama, can i get five hundred box from you?”
” Mba. It is five hundred packs i will give you. You want to use my money to buy recharge card so that you can Facebook that Yoruba girl, Mba!”
I went out of the room, my mind was already over our conversation. I wondered if i could last till the next day to see her again. I had already made plans to take her to Barcelos at GRA for the date.
Mabel
I heard Serwa screaming for me, i wondered what she wanted as i flipped through a fashion catalog on the kitchen counter. I saw a gown i liked, i folded that part as a reminder. I was heading towards the door to see what my daughter wanted when i heard the buzz of my phone, i went back into the kitchen to answer the call.
” Hey baby girl, what time is that shindig? ” i asked, stirring the boiling tomato stew on the cooker. Serwa came into the kitchen wearing a long face, i removed the phone from my ear.” Mami Serwa go call daddy. Tell him to come take the trash out and tell him the stew is ready. ” Sorry Sweetie,” i said into the mouth piece.” I was talking to my little angel. So the party is at seven pm tomorrow. Cool, see y’all tomorrow! ”
Tade walked into the kitchen with Serwa in his arms. He placed her on the kitchen stool and raised up her gown. Her knee was bruised, he went out of the kitchen and returned with a first_ aid kit. I stared at the purple bruises in surprise.
” How did that happen Serwa?” I asked.
” I fell off my bike,” She moaned.” I was calling for help but you didn’t come Mama”
” Oh dear. Mummy was on a call”
” Sorry baby boo, daddy will make it better.”
Tade dressed it while she cried and wrapped her arms around his chest. I went to them and lifted her into my arms. I rocked her until she fell asleep and i took her to her room. I served the food while Tade took out the trash. He washed his hand and came to dinner. We ate in silence until i felt uncomfortable with the quietness.
” What’s on your mind?”
” Serwa” he replied tersely.
” What’s wrong with her?” I asked, browsing through an e.rotic site on my phone, the story i was reading the previous day was about a young couple who were trying out kinky stuffs.I wondered if Tade would be game for it.
” Mabel this is the third time she’s bruising her knee ” he said worriedly.
” Tade, she’s a kid. Didn’t you get your knees skinned as a child?” I asked.
” I will caution her to be more careful when playing. The food is good baby” he said.
” Thank you baby” i replied with a smile, ” I have to be at Rose’s bar opening night tomorrow. It’s 7 pm till dawn”
” Tomorrow is Serwa’ s play at school. Have you forgotten? ”
” No i didn’t. Rose will never forgive me if i am not at the opening of her new bar.”
” Serwa will be hurt if you are not there to see her perform.”
” What time is the play?”
” It is 5 pm_ 7 pm.”
” Wow. Silly me! I agreed to shop with Arianna for her wedding tomorrow noon and i also want to attend Rose’s opening. I will just be too stressed out to attend the play, i will have a talk with Serwa and i have to get her a new toy or something to appease her.
” Alright” he said. He was a very calm, peaceful and quiet man. He was so loving and understanding. He was a gentleman and i felt so lucky to have him.
After our dinner i woke up Serwa and fed her. Tade read her a bed time story while i brushed my teeth, showered and got into bed. Tade came in and switched off the light, he pulled back the duvet and got into the bed. He drew me closer to his strong muscled body, his nose was buried in my hair while his hand caressed my ass lightly.
” Bell, since we couldn’t travel for Christmas because of your famous party we have to travel for easter.” He said.
” Hmmmn” i murmured, mentally planning what to wear to the shindig.
He squeezed my ass, kissing my neck.
” Tade ” i said.
” Hmmn baby,”
” Not tonight please. I need my energy for tomorrow’s activities. You know how i get after sex, i would want more and more until i have sapped out my energy” i said, but the truth of the matter was i had given myself several orgasm earlier in the day.
” It’s been a while” he said.
” This weekend is all yours baby. I promise to ride you sore”.
He sighed and shifted back.” Night Bell,”
” Night, my handsome Nigerian Man,”
