Episode 27
David’s mum:what are you talking about tumi
Me: (I just stood there still shocked at my own
behaviour, how could I have just blabbered about
something as huge and important as this, I looked at
David who starred back at me as if I was performing
some kind of trick. My father then spoke out, though it
looked like he was pushed to say it out, I had agreed
that it was better for the whole family to hear it all from
the horse mouth but I just broke that when I went crazy
for love, I have never in my life imagined that I will do
such a thing for a man)
David’s dad: I can explain kemi (he said to my mother
and everyone turned there attention to him including
me) but before anything I will plead with you all to have
mercy on me, and to know that the reason why I do all
things is for the happiness of this family.(he said as I
noticed that some tears were forming in his eyes under
his glasses but he hid that) twenty five years ago Kemi
when you went into Labour for our first child, I was told
by the doctor that there was some complications with
our baby and then when you gave birth and passed out
without seeing your child, the doctor told me that the
baby born had died even before he was pushed out, I
was so devastated and I cried knowing how much you
dreamt of that baby and how much you have longed for
a child, coincidentally a woman in the same Labour
room died and she gave birth to identical twin boys, the
woman had no relation as she came to the hospital
herself and I thought that the children will have no
family member and so I thought that taking the children
to be ours will make us happy and the children will have
a family, I made a deal with the doctor and we switched
the babies, he took the twin babies to your side Kemi
and our dead son to the dead woman’s side until you
woke up and found the boys beside u, I wanted to tell
you but I couldn’t when I saw how much you loved the
children
David’s mum: so you kept these a secret from me for all
these years ( she said to my dad as those tears that he
was hiding poured out)
David’s dad: I am sorry but I want you to know that all I
did was for you all to be happy
David’s mum: you kept a lie from us all, from I your wife
(I went to her side and tried to calm her down)
David: so my real mother is dead(he said as we all
turned to him, he just looked at us and yet I saw this
spin mixed with anger that was in his face) where the
neck is my father then.
David’s dad: son your dad is very much alive.
David: I want to see my dad (he said, I did not expect
him to react that way to the story, I actually felt glad that
we are not sibling and it’s know to all but I can see that
David is not at all glad about these, in fact everyone is
affected by this news)
Me: (I went to David) David please
David: not now tumi (he shouted at me, being the very
first time that he’ll shout at me that way, I was shocked,
did he want to take out his anger in me)
David’s dad: son it’s not her fault
David: I don’t care whose fault it is (he said angry to my
dad and suddenly a rush of anger came over me)
Me: David mind the way you speak to m father (I said
angry to David and I had said it all before I realized what
I said and David starred at me)
David: this is none of your business
Me: this is all of my business, you have been
overreacting, everyone is affected (I had already begun
this and I had to calm him down and get the old David
back) don’t you even think about mum, she had raised
you for as long as you can ever think off, she loved you
and your twin brother also did dad. If you think you are
the most hurt, what about mum just finding out after
twenty five years that the sons that she raised took care
of and loved aren’t her son’s and that her own child is
dead, how do u think she feels (I noticed the David had
calmed down and was listening to me with adapt
attention, I will definitely settle what I started,I will not
scatter my family and I will not lose the love of my life)
David I know that you are definitely going to want to
know more about your family but don’t forget the family
that you have always know, that have always been your
family (I said then turned to my mum) mum dad was
yes wrong with what he did but at least he came around
to tell the truth and because of what you did, Daniel and
David grew up as your children (I walked to my mother
and held her hands, she was weeping but I used my
hands to wipe her face) forgive dad, think of all the good
things that he has done over this,think of your moments
together,think of us all the children you had and raised
with him. Please mum ( I said as I looked at my mum
hoping that my words will enter into her heart and both
her and dad will be okay, I turned back and saw Daniel
staring at us, his eyes was also teary, dami was also
emotional,I know that I can make this family come
together and at the same time build back my love with
David, I hope my words change their hearts for good, I
look to God for his divine intervention, wish me luck
