WESLEY : baby, baby what is it
RITA : honey, I am fine
WESLEY : what is the matter
RITA : I am fine, I just remembered my life in the village with my mother and my sister charity
WESLEY : bad right
RITA : somehow bad, but the story turned around, when I finally met you
WESLEY : hmmm
RITA : I love my mother and charity so much, that I always do anything they wanted, just to make them happy
WESLEY : but your sister never appreciated it
RITA : Yes I know she dont appreciate it, I sacrificed everything that c@m£ my way because of her, but when God finally blessed her, she never remembered all that, when I ask her for an accommodation, she accepted to help me, If only I become a maid in is house
WESLEY : real wickedness
RITA : I never took it as anything, not until what she did on my marriage day
WESLEY : and what is that
RITA : no matter how sick a sister will be, she must try her best to celebr@te with her lovely sister, hmmm, charity never stepped out of the room on my wedding day, she was inside that room all day
WESLEY : even when kinsley tried talking to her, so that she can at least come out and dance with you, even if is just 5 minutes , charity refused and told kinsley to stay away from their family issues
RITA : and that’s why I love kinsley, immediately charity ask him to stay clear, he always obey it, how which you can do same, when the nee-ds of it arrives
WESLEY : and your mother is not saying anything about it
RITA : my mother is another story, she might see me laughing with her, but whenever I remember what she and charity did to me, I am not always happy about it
WESLEY : is okey my dear
RITA : I just pray charity should not nee-d my help, because she can never have it
(Two days later, charity returned from the village)
CHARITY : baby, I arrived in this house an hour ago
