Episode 25
David’s mum: he was involved in an accident, he drove
off the road,he wanted to kill himself
Me: how long has he been like this
Bidemi: for three days just like you were and we are
hoping that he will wake up soon
David’s mum: child you need to rest
Me: no!(I knew that they wanted me leave David, but I
am not leaving him alone, I will stay with him until he
wakes up, I do not care if we are brother and sister as
this doesn’t change the way I feel towards him)
David’s mum: tumi both of u matter to me, don’t you
know how much pain that I feel when three of my four
children are suffering, you and David and Daniel are
hurting very much
Me: (I looked at her) I don’t want to be your child (I said
as tears gathered in my eyes, I couldn’t just accept her
as my mother, I even wished that I hadn’t knew the
truth, I actually preferred the lies at least I will have less
troubles to worry about)
David’s mum: please my daughter, I have longed so
much for you
Me: I am not your daughter please, I don’t want you to
be my mother
David’s mum: it’s ok my child, I understand how hurt
you are, (she said as she walked out and I moved closer
to David and I held his hands as tears gathered in my
eyes and I remember the first time we met and all out
time together, why is Destiny playing with us, why is life
so unfair to me despite all that I have been through, I
still can’t be happy, I have always wished to know my
parents but now I wished that I never knew them, no
amount of words could describe how I felt and I know
David must have felt the same way and then decided to
kill himself, I squeezed his palm lightly and i hopped in
my mind that he will wake up and be alright, I felt a
gentle hand on my shoulder and I looked back and saw
Bidemi)
Bidemi: let us pray for David
Me:(I never believed in prayers but now I just need to
hold on to something, I need peace in my life so I
nodded and Bidemi held my hands and told me to say
amen to her prayers and I said it until she was through
praying, she left me and I laid beside David on the
hospital bed and stared at his face until I feel asleep, I
woke up later to some one speaking to David’s father, I
did not open my eyes but I listened to what they said)
Doctor: we have the results of the DNA test
David’s dad: what does it read
Doctor: why do you think that David and daniel aren’t
your children
David’s dad: because my wife’s first child was a boy but
that baby was born dead and in the same hospital
another woman gave birth to twin boys but she died
and I knew my wife will not handle losing a child, so I
took the twin boys
Doctor:how could you do that( I couldn’t believe what I
was hearing and I felt as if there were more truths to be
told, then suddenly I felt David move his hand that I was
holding and I thought as well that the doctor and
David’s dad noticed as well as they stopped talking, but
David did not move his hand again until he squeezed my
hands and I opened my eyes)
Me: David(I called to him as he opened his eyes slowly)
David’s dad: he’s awake!(he exclaimed as the doctor
came to him and checked him although he was been
attended to by a doctor he still held my hand, I am so
happy that he is awake)
