¤Episode 49
A few step away from me stood giganticly two range rover sport.to say that am extremely happy
will be an understatement,in short I am tired of hearing that word happy it has gotten too frequent
in everyones lips,you can use any word synonymous to it if possible use a word far greater than it
but not the word ‘happy’ cos what I felt at that instant is far mightier than happy. I screamed on the
top of my voice in joy and I quickly dived from where I stood to Isabella dad’s place putting him in a very tight hug while they continue there sceptical laughing in the joyful atmosphere.
“thank you so much sir,thank you,thank you,i don’t just know how to thank you for all you have
been doing for me”.i coerced very fast with tears gathering in my eyes gland which he cleaned
with his handkerchief.
“you don’t know how to thank me?,don’t thank me just call Me daddy”.he said still in his nonstop
jovial and lovable smile.
“Isabella has placed an embargo on me not to say that again sir!”.i replied holding him famely.
“Isabella??”.he asked and I nodded in affirmative.
“is it true?”.he ask again directing it this time to Isabella.
“yes daddy”.
“oh oh, I see this is turning into something else but is actually the best though”.
“okenwa and wealth joining together in a matrimony”.
“wisdom marry Isabella”
“mom!!!… “.i and Isabella shouted at the same time referring to both our parents who were making
some funny statement in Reply to what Isabella dad said while Vincent stood abruptly laughing his
a-s out.
“what???”.they both replied.
“did we say anything wrong?”.Isabella mom added.
“no mom”.Isabella replied.
“better”.my mom added.
“who is this boy with you?”Isabella’s dad asked referring to Vincent.
“he is our friend dad”.
“oh,is he the boy you were talking about?”he asked further and Isabella nodded in affirmative and
he smile which actually means they really have talk about Vincent before.isabella dad went to his
car and brought out something rapped in carton heading toward us,it was when he is a bit closer
to us we discover it was a new play station.he handed it to Vincent and also added a bunch of
money on it too as Vincent held them in his hand with his legs shaking on the ground.
“thank you so much sir”.he managed to say after some seconds of silence stare at the things to
Isabella dad.
“I should be the one thanking you,thank you for being my daughter and son in-law friend”.he said
and they busted into a huge laughter again.look at what this people are saying when I and Isabella
are not even dating yet,when am still scared of her without knowing where to state from,when I
dont even know the best way to ask her out cos she deserve The best and she is the best.
_______________________________________
We sat in the seating room in our new house excluding Vincent who we ask one of the driver to
take home cos he complain as expected that his parents were really mad at him the previous
day.actually it was Isabella dad that summon us to the seating room for what he called a
confession which I was really curious to hear about including my mom.
“I hope you both Will not be angry with me when am done revealing this little secret of mine?”.he
asked and my mom gave him the assurance that we won’t then he proceed.
“after wealth death my wife and returned to the country to see everything messed up,you were no where to be find including my lovely boy wisdom and I was unable to find you anywhere near.
Wealth trusted me so much that he handed his two companies document to me,the one here in
this state and the one in Lagos State.after the search which yielded no good,i decided to use the
document to take care of the companies so the government will not take over them”.he explained
and my mom eyes widen out in shock while I stood watching like everyone else as I have no clues
to what they were saying all I know is my dad have two companies,wealth global enterprises.
“what??,I have been seeing some adverts in the market and radio’s and I thought it was one of my
husband Family that claimed it”.
“no one had the document and files except me,i am the one running them and I combine them with
my own company which is the reason am this wealthy”.isabella dad replied again searching our
eyes for any possible negative reaction.
“what about the advert am seeing outside the country,is there another person using my husband
company name?”.my mom asked again.
“no,i succeeded in setting branches of the company in four countries which make the company
branches six in the World at large,there is now wealth global Enterprises Inc in
Italy,spain,u.s.a,california and ofcourse Nigerian”.
“that is good news”.i shouted from where I sat with Isabella’s mom while Isabella sat with my Mom.
“good news?,that is a great news not good news”.my mom replied sharply.
“is it?”.Isabella dad asked searching our reaction.
“ofcourse, you are a great friend indeed”.my mom replied.
“I thought I won’t be forgiven,i thought you will ask me what I would have done to them if I didn’t
find you and your son”.Isabella dad said in a sober voice.
“I know,but what ever need to be done gat to be done.what if the government or any of wealth
family claims them?”.my mom asked.
“Hmmm,you are right though. I have already placed wisdom name as the next of kin in the
company document he will have access to all the branches in the countries when he is through
with his education”.he added and I shouted in joy embracing him once again as we played and
have fun filling The fatherly love Space I was deprived from having at a very tender age.
_________ONE WEEK LATER________________________________
today make it one week after Isabella dad bought I and my mom the range rovers sport and also
told us the great news of how secured my future is and I must say he is really a great friend to my
dad.it is another Monday again and guess what!, today is the first day we are taking the new cars
to school cos the plate numbers were not Ready then and they are not just ordinary plate numbers
but customise gold plate numbers with our names written boldly in it.i and Isabella planned it very
well as we had decided to feed the whole school with food,drinks and anything eatable any
student or staff will need just to celebrate our joyful moment with us.the three cars,yes three
cars,isabella pink Range Rover,my blue Range Rover and my mom black Range Rover too which
we offered to Vincent to ride on for the day unto big boy level.that is what he get for staying with
me truthfully right from when I was a nobody,embarrased at every corner and places in the school
but he choosed to stand with me without shame,fear and anguish.he choose to be the brother I
never had, staying with me on the crunching sun and the heavy rainfall of my life and I have decided to take him as a brother I never had too, he might be Vincent Matthew with another father
entirely but to me he is Vincent wealth the Twin brother of Wisdom wealth.
____________________________________________
We actually played our second leg match with almond secondary school on friday of the former
week and we won with two goals. Funny right?, yes it is funny and I know some people will ask
how?.well the truth is I don’t even know either,i didn’t purposely do that neither did anyone or
maybe there is which I never knew about though but I do know we played perfectly but was unable
to score as all the ball attempt were spoiled by tochukwu and I don’t know why he never made any
attempt to pass to me neither Vincent and he will end up spoiling the opportunity. Well we won the
match which is the most important aspect there now we need to kick royal comprehensive high
school out to qualify for the governor’s cup a match which I know is not gonna be easy but we will
scale through.
_______________________________________________
Everyone class and staffs gather in the hall as we eat and drink in merriment especially my team
mate,principal and couch who sat with I, Isabella,vincent adaeze and Anabel but tochukwu was no
where to be found and I Wonder why cos I actually saw him that morning in School.i took excuse
from my follow teammate and staffs so I could go out and look for him a decision which I later
solemnly regretted.
_________________________________________________
“tochi please wait,i have been searching for you since”.i called out to him as I saw him going to his
class and he stopped stare at me and hissed then he walked into the class.
“what is wrong with this one again? “.i asked myself rhetorically walking toward him and I entered
the class with my inquisitive mind just to find out what I did wrong to him cos I have been noticing
is awful stare at me since last week which I never read any meaning to,if only I knew on time I
would have turn back but how will I know?,am just a random kid with an inquisitive Spirit trying to
solve the mystery of the world with my inquisitive mindset.
_________________________________________________
I enter the class and I saw him looking out of the window and I touched him on his shoulder which
drifted his attention into the class and he knock my hands off his shoulder.
“can’t you just leave me alone?”.he shouted at me which make me Wonder what I have done to
him.
“what have I done to you?,why are you behaving like this?, what is your problem?”.i asked three
questions at once battling with my mind.
“you are My problem,stay away from me wisdom!”.
“but why?, what have I done wrong?”.i asked again.
“you think you have made it right?, you think you are the best,you have won the Heart of the
teachers with your stupidity and blur mind which you call skills whereas you cant even work and
score a ball for yourself and score with it”.
“so this is all about the match?”.i asked staring at him coz I already know where he is going to with
his words and everything started making sense to me slowly.
“you actually refused to let any ball got to me, Matt and Vincent last week as the midfielder just so I will not score? “.i added staring at him with anger building up inside me.
“yes,i did and what can you do about it?, all you do everytime is tapping on our glory,we played
and you took the Glory if they cant see your flows am not stupid I see it clearly you are a gold
digger just like you have dig into Isabella’s dad money just because you are dating his
daughter.you think I don’t know you are following Isabella around like a fly because of her father
money?”.
“tochukwu stop!!!,just stop please!,stop now”.i shouted with rage and my head filled already with
his words.
“and what Will you do if I don’t?”.
“I will be forced to give you a sound slap that will erased your past,change your present and
corrupt your future”.i shouted so loud and I meant everything I said because I know what my Angry
state can do.
“you can’t do anything to me, you are tapping from Isabella Glory doesn’t make you one of us,you
are poor wealth who’s stupid mother is a pepper seller in the street and you will always be poor”.
“what did you just call my mom? “.
“your stupid pepper seller mother”.he replied.
“if them born you well repeat that statement again”i said challenging him cos I could feel my Angry
mind turning into violence mind.
“I repeat,your stupid pepper seller mother”.and that did it as I loose my mind completely breaking
my no fighting rule of my mom as I combine all my anger into strength vested them into one hand
and landed it his cheeks.the force of the slap moved him from his standing Point and hit him so
hard on the front chair which break instantly and I still made more move to injure him as I picked a
part of the damage chair to break his head when I was restricted by a shout at my back.
“wisdom stop!!!!……..”.i heard the voice echoed Into my ear and I saw Isabella walking into the
class with her blue eyes which signify fury.
To be continue………..
