Episode 28
Mr Anderson was seen sitting down in his pri-vate room with eyeglas-s on his eyes and a record in his hand as he went throu-gh it,
Charles knocked on the door and entered “good evening Dad”
“evening my boy, how are you?”
“I’m okay” he frowned
“but I don’t think so. I guessed you c@m£ to share whatever that’s wrong with me”
“yes Dad, I want to request something from you but I’m not sure if you will grant it to me”
“what is it dear?”
“can you promise me first?” Charles asked
“you alre-ady know I can’t, especially in the case that I don’t know what you want to request for” Mr Anderson answered
His expression bec@m£ gloomy as he stared down “I want to go back to Nigeria”
“for what?” his father asked surprised as he re-moved his eyeglas-s
“I hope you know what you’re saying Charles? My company will soon be handed over to you and the next thing for you to do is to run away?”
“it’s not like that Dad….”
“I don’t want to hear anything from you and my final decision is that you’re going nowhere”
“but Dad……” he raised his voice a little
“Don’t but me Charles, you’re going nowhere and that is final!” Mr Anderson shouted and Charles furiously stormed out and ban-ged the door
AT THE AIRPORT
Mr Anderson, Mrs Anderson, Angelina, Austin and Cindy could be seen in the airport, Cindy is about to leave and her recent family and friend are there to see her off again just like the other time she’s leaving Nigeria to meet them.
Tears welled up in Cindy’s face as she embr@ced them one by one
“I’ll miss you all” she finally said and made to leave but Austin embr@ced her again and said “Thank you for everything and I’ll miss you too Didi”
“I’ll miss you too Austin” Cindy replied as he broke the hvg “and make sure you take care of mum” she tea-sed and Austin nodded
Charles was nowhere to be found among them, he’d left the house earlier before them. Cindy bid them farewell and left, she was surprised to see Charles outside the airport lounge and Charles seems to have see her also, so he walked up to her.
“Why are you here?” Cindy asked when Charles got to her
“what do you mean by that question?, I c@m£ to see you off of course” Charles replied and Cindy sighed “but I don’t know if it will be the last time we’ll be seeing ourselves ” he paused and she looked up at him “you know, my father is not allowing me to leave here at all”
Cindy’s heart thumped, does that mean she wouldn’t be seeing him again? One p@rt of her want to stay with him while the other p@rt want to leave and go and see the family and friends she’d missed and left for years.
“that’s not bad” she f0rç£d a smile “I’ll have to go now” with this she left……
