NONse-nSE MISTAKE
Episode 10
Oluchi was leter ushered in to the visitor’s room.
She then thanked Ofoma for allowing her stay in his house. And he acknowledged.
“If you nee-d anything, don’t hesitate to call me” Ofoma urged
And Oluchi nodded, standing close to him, having the urge to hu-g and kizz him.
“No Oluchi, it’s not yet time. You have to control yourself otherwise, you will loose your every chances of getting him back” she said, controlling her wild feelings.
Then, Ofoma left the room, closing the door behind him.
“Oh my God! Ofoma is now my dream man. He has changed a lot, to a more mature and organized man. If I had known, I wouldn’t have left him.
I thought that changing him would be a dream that will never come to reality. I should have listened to Chidimma’s advice then.
Anyway, all things are still put together for my sake. It’s never late for me, my chances of having him back are porous. Imagine the way he was talking to her, he is not even into her.
I was so happy watching the sad look on her face” she paused, reminiscing the way Ofoma shoved Chidimma off, asking her to enter the room or leave the house.
“I’m so happy, that my place in his heart is still vacant. So Chidimma, you will be wasting your time by staying here, because the Queen of his heart has returned” she said, smiling happily.
Ofoma was in the living room, reminiscing the good old days. How he was so madly in love with Oluchi.
“I can’t stop loving her, I just can’t stop loving her.” He blurted without knowing that Chidimma was standing behind him.
“You can’t stop loving who?” She asked, expecting an immediate answer.
“Come on Baby! Why are you getting insecure unnecessary. Off course I was talking about you. How can I stop loving a woman who brou-ght so much joy and happiness into my life?” he said, holding her on the wa-ist and asked her to sit beside him.
“So where is she, has she gone?” Chidimma asked, expecting a positive answer
“No, she is in the room, the visitor’s room”
And Chidimma flared up immediately: “She is where? Baby, can’t you see that that woman is gradually having her way?
You should have asked her to leave. What relationship does she have with you that would warrant her spend the night here?”
And Ofoma wasn’t happy with her reaction: “Wait a minute, are you telling me that you can’t give a friend shelter in your own house?”
“Yes, a friend you said, but she is no longer a friend, she is an enemy. She made that clear to me today.”
“Enough of this nonse-nse, Chidimma! Do I nee-d to remind you that this is my house.
You don’t have any authority to instruct me on what to do here. She came to your house, you for-ced her out, I don’t have anything against that because it’s your house, so now, allow me treat my guest the way it pleases me. Is there any problem with that?”
“Baby, I love you so much, I don’t want to loose you. I can’t afford to loose you. Oluchi did not come for good, she came to create problems and separate us. Can’t you un-derstand?” She calmly asked, with a teary eyes.
While while they were still exchanging voices, Oluchi who overheard them decided to use the opportunity to her advantage.
“Chidimma, watch how I will use all your effort to throw me out to my own advantage.
I will make Ofoma throw you out instead” She then approached them in the living room and began acting innocent.
“Chidimma my friend, it pained my heart on how you think that I came to ruin your happiness. Was I not the one who kept on calling you, advising you on how to make Ofoma happy so that your relationship will yield positive result?
Have you forgotten how I rejoiced m@$$ively when broke the news of your engagement to me? Why are you treating me like this? I have always meant well for you?”
While she was saying all those things, Chidimma was shocked looking at her, trying to figure out what she was up to.
And Oluchi continued: “See girlfriend, I will never hate you for this. You will still remain my best friend, and since you don’t want me here, I will leave.
Let me go and get my things” She said, releasing fake tears, heading to the visitor’s room, pretending to get her things to leave.
“Yes leave, you are not welcome here.” Chidimma said
“Seriously, you surprise me. I am disappointed looking at you right now. That girl is your best friend, what has come over you? I’m sorry to say this, I am feeling irritated looking at you right now.
I want to make it clear to you, Oluchi is free to stay in my house anytime she wants, if you are not comfortable with that, the door is right over there” he said, pointing to the door and then rushed inside to prevent Oluchi from leaving.
“You don’t have to take her words seriously, she is only been childish.”
“But she doesn’t want me to stay. I don’t know why she is having such imagination that I came to ruin things for her. No Ofoma, I have to go, I don’t want to be the reason for your unnecessary arguments.
I used to think that Chidimma is a sweet kind girl, now it looks like I don’t know her anymore. Thanks for offering me shelter in your home, but I will have to go” she continued packing her things
“But it’s already late, where would go to, since you don’t have anybody in the city?”
“I don’t know, my God will provide”
“That’s why I want you to stay here, don’t refuse me” he said, stopping her from carrying her bag.
“Good job Ofoma, you are doing exactly what I want you to do” she smiled in her heart…: “OK, if you say so, I will stay. Just that I’m scared of what Chidimma will do to me, now she is becoming over possessive”
“Don’t worry about her, I will handle her. Here is my house, I have the full control, so relax, you will be called for dinner soon”
*NONse-nSE MISTAKE*
?Episode 11?
Chidimma felt betrayed watching Ofoma entering the visitor’s room to pacify Oluchi and also plead her down to stay.
“What is going on? Does it mean that Ofoma lied to me? Though he never denied missing her, but he made it clear to me that he will never accept her back into his life again.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have given Ofoma a space in my heart. Anyway, how should I have known, when Oluchi categorically told me that she won’t have anything to do with him again.
It’s obvious that I have wasted my time loving him. Tomorrow morning, I will leave, I will walk away from their lives, because fighting Oluchi won’t guaranty me Ofoma’s love, it will only make me look cheap.
Oluchi is determined to have him back at all cost, and since he still loves her, he will always side with her.” She said, began shedding tears and left herself on the couch, reminiscing how they started, the first day Ofoma asked her out, how she determined to change him and tutor him into a corporate guy.
Then, tears ran down her cheeks, profusely.
“Ofoma why? Why do you want to reward me like this?
After all I did for you, you decided to repay me with the exact betrayal Oluchi did to you, are you so blind that you can’t notice the faithful love I have for you, Ofoma why?” She continued shedding tears and began looking at the engagement ring on her finger.

And then Ofoma came out and asked her about dinner.
“Why are you sitting there crying, instead of being in the kitchen, don’t you know that we have visitor?”
The question shocked Chidimma as she raised her head looking at him.
She searched for the words to reply him but couldn’t find any.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Are you not supposed to be in the kitchen by now?” He looked mean as Chidimma kept shut, continued crying.
“Are you preparing the dinner or should I ask my boy to do it? You know he can cook very well.” He continued
“Ofoma, thank you for paying me back with wickedness. After all the love we shared, after all the promises, this is how you decided to pay me back?” She asked standing up..
“Pay you back, how? What exactly are you talking about?” Ofoma asked expecting an answer.
“Ofoma, your actions have made it clear to me that I’m no longer wanted in your life. Don’t worry, tomorrow morning, I will leave and never come back, if not that it’s already late, I would have left by now.”
“Chidimma, I don’t know what your problem is, but since you have already made up your mind to leave, then so be it, I won’t for-ce you to stay” He said, leaving the sitting room to his boy’s room to ask him to prepare dinner.
And shocked Chidimma stood agape, watching him leave. She felt pained, disappointed, betrayed and heartbroken. She couldn’t un-derstand anything.
“If not that it’s late, I would have left this place………..Ofoma, my God will surely reward you for treating me horribly. You will surely regret this, I promise you. All my effort to make him a better person have all been in vain.
I was tushing him for Oluchi, thinking I was doing him a favour. Oh Lord, why me, why this wickedness? This is so unfair.”
When the dinner was served, Ofoma went to the visitor’s room to call Oluchi.
Chidimma was just there watching all that was happening. Ofoma did not care to ask her to join them on the dining table. He was eating, chating with Oluchi as they laughed together.
Oluchi was enjoying the sad look on Chidimma’s face as her hope kept increasing that Ofoma still loved her. And that he was doing all that to for-ce Chidimma out of his life.
“I know what you are doing my love. Since you have engaged her already, you want to use actions to push her out from your life so that nobody will blame you for doing so.
That is a very smart idea, very nice, it will look like she left on her own accord. I know Chidimma’s nature, she can’t stand the humiliation, she will leave first thing tomorrow morning.
Wow! I can’t believe that things will go this smoothly for me. Lord I thank you for answering my prayers.
It shows that Ofoma and I are match made in heaven. After all I did to him, he still has the heart to shower me with so much love! He must truly love me a lot.
And with this single act, I will never betray him again, all my love will be for him for the rest of my life.” While she was still eating, an idea crept in.
“Oluchi, what are you doing? You pretended that you are still friends with Chidimma and you are not saying anything on why she is not eating with you?
You have to act, to look kind in Ofoma’s eyes. Yes, do it” she then spoke up
“Chidimma dear, why are you not eating? Come and sit beside your man. Come and eat OK.” She acted nicely
But Ofoma asked her to continue eating her food, that Chidimma wasn’t interested, that she had no appetite.
“How can that be? The food is delicious, let her have a taste, she will like it”
“I said she doesn’t want to eat, don’t for-ce her. Just sit down and enjoy your meal, don’t allow her ruin this wonderful dinner for us, please” Ofoma urged, looking serious and said in his heart: “I don’t even want her here, I want to have this moment alone with Oluchi”
Chidimma was watching, dying in pain, her heart was breaking down into pieces.
“No, I can no longer bear this. This is too much, I better leave and face the danger I will meet on the road than sit here getting humiliated” she then rose from where she was sitting, and approached Ofoma on the dining table.
She removed the engagement ring on her middle finger and placed it for him on the table without uttering any word.
She then turned to leave.
“Good job Chidimma, good job. You have successfully handed my man over to me without putting up a fight. It shows that you don’t even love him enough as you claim. Very good, everything is turning out for my good.” Oluchi rejoiced silently.
Ofoma was watching, wondering what Chidimma was doing.
“It’s already late, let it not be she is leaving” he said, going outside to know what she was up to. When he reached there, he saw her opening the door, crying bitterly.
“And where do you think you are going at this ungodly hour?” He asked
“You are asking like you still care?” She replied
“Listen, it’s already late. I don’t want to be held responsible for anything that may happen to you.
It’s better you sleep here, tomorrow morning you leave, since you have already made up your mind”
He was breaking Oluchi’s heart the more with his harsh words.
And she ignored him and left.
He stood watching her leave, without putting in any effort to prevent her from leaving….
