THE NIGHT WIFE CHAPTERS 61-70

BY SOLOMON ADINYA

CHAPTER 64

“Jesus christ me? Never!” he snarled as the officers shoved and bundled him out of the house, pushing his wife and kids away from him.

“Mama I know she has a child already. But mama I’ve never loved anyone this way, when I her I feel electricity current surge through me. I want to help her, I want assist Dooshima she cannot continue wallowing in poverty mama.”

Terdue spoke softly to Mama Amos.” Mama please mama talk to her on my behalf. I know she will listen to you.” Terdue said.

” Wait oh Terdue are you afraid of Dooshima? Does she eat people? How do you know that I’ve not spoken to her?” she asked.”

Please oh don’t put me in a tight corner my time of love has passed. You’re here doing like a woman go and speak with her if she accepts you that’s your luck. ” Mama Amos said.

Terdue buried his face in his palms , he couldn’t understand the way he was feeling, he was so restless since he visited Amos’s house and saw her with her shabby dressing, he knew he needed her in his life.

“God how am I going to win this lady over?” He mumbled in a monologue. “I love her so much, but I don’t seem to be able to muster up courage to speak with her.

Terdue why are you this way?” He whispered to himself, as mama Amos watched the miserable romantic, with an amusing smile on her face. He was lost in his world, he got up on his feet.

” Mama Old soldier, I have to go now.” Terdue mumbled as he walked out of the the shop.

” Okay oh Terdue greet your mother for me oh.” She said to him, he nodded and got into his white Mercedes Benz, he drove straight for the compound. Dooshima’s door was locked. He went to her neighbour who knew him.

“Mama Ator please were is Dooshima?” He asked with a jovial smile on his face.

“I think she followed Prisca and Priscilla to the pump wait for her she’ll be here soon.” She said Terdue nodded and thanked her. He brought his phone and was checking pictures of people you may know on his Facebook app, he came across Dooshima’s profile, he got frozen there.

The crackling laughter of Prisca drew his attention to the road, where he saw Dooshima and the two crazy sisters, each carrying a twenty litre jerrican of water on their heads, Dooshima was tying baby Shania on her back.

He got up from the bench and ran towards the three ladies. Prisca watched with a weary eyes, wondering where he was running to.

He collected the jerrican of water from Dooshima’s head, to her surprise and amazement.”Let me help you carry it.” He said already carrying the water.

“What? Why? What?” Dooshima tried to say, she couldn’t come up with any sensible sentence could come up. “Why did you…” Prisca and Priscilla laughed so hard their jerrican almost fell off.

The young man ignored them and carried the water to Dooshima’s frontage before he dropped it down, Dooshima thanked him and collected the water from him and took it in.

She lay Shania who was dozing on the bed, and returned outside she was stunned to see him standing there in flesh and blood, the same spot she had left him ten minutes earlier.

“Please what do you want?” She asked him impatiently. He was fidgeting, twisting the key rings hanging on his finger wound and round.

“Well Dooshima can we go aside and talk?” He said pleadingly.

“My baby is sleeping inside, I can’t leave her all by herself.” Dooshima said, the neighbour was straining her ears to hear their conversation. Dooshima looked at her, she took away her face, and busied herself sweeping the compound.

“Can we step into my car, I have something very important to me to say.” he begged. Dooshima stood for a while, not to let Mama Ator listen to their conversation, she agreed to follow him into his tinted car.

He sat on the driver’s seat,turned on the ignition and then the chilled Air conditioning unit in the car, the cold feeling on her skin reminded Dooshima, how life was before she fell from grace. Dooshima sat beside him.

He couldn’t stare at her face, he kept exhaling.” So Dooshima the truth is that I am dying for you…”

He saw her mouth was raising up, he guessed she wanted to object, so raised his aims pleadingly to stop her. “Please Dooshima hear me out.

I said to myself the way girls behave now, that I would never have anything to do with a single mother. But then I saw you, everything about me change.

I’ve not been myself, at work I don’t even know what I am doing this days. I know everything that happened to you Dooshima.” He said Dooshima decided to be quiet to hear what had happened to her.

” I know you’re a good girl, I really do. I know you were not wayward, that your baby came from a one night… But the truth is that even if you were a bad girl I would have still wanted you.” He said.

“I just want to be able to show you how a man loves a woman. Dooshima it has been two and a half years, you have not moved on.

I work in Gboko, I actually know you’re the daughter of pastor Paul Gamadi. You don’t deserve this life you’re living here, please allow me to take care of you.” Dooshima was just speechless.

” I’ve been sweet talked before, I fell stupidly, I fell from up here.” Dooshima demonstrated, with her hands above her heed.” to down here. It’s not going to be easy for me. I don’t want any man in my life.

I am okay with my child. I know life isn’t what it’s meant to be for me , but I like my life this way I don’t want a man in it. You guys come with a sugarcoated tongue, when you get the woman’s body, she becomes like trash before you you cannot wait to dump her and jump to the next.

I am not going to be your game.” Dooshima said as Terdue threw his head to the back of his car seat. Shania had woken up from sleep and had stumbled out of the room, crying and looking for her mother, Dooshima used that excuse to escape from his car.
