Chapter 8: Episode 7(The Wedding Party)
|POETIC INTRO|
"White is for weddings
As Black is for grieving.
She glitters in excitement
For it is a day that was once a dream.
We wish he felt the same
Unfortunately, he was all dressed in Black
Waiting to be sentenced to death
By the chains, that was a dream come true for her."
|FESTAC CENTRAL HOSPITAL|
"Dr Mabel walks into the office"
Dr MABEL
I heard Dr Chidi would be in charge of Awelle's surgery.
Dr RAPHAEL
He is the best for the job Awelle is lucky!
"Micheal walks into the office"
MICHAEL
How is that luck? He is a doctor, not a god!
Dr MABEL
We never implied that he was one; we were only emphasizing on how experienced he is, especially because he is young and good-looking.
MICHAEL
Do you have an idea of the schedule for her operation?
Dr HENRY
I guess you guys are still not on talking terms!
(He gaze at Michael )
MICHAEL
And what does that have to do with my daughter's Surgery schedule?
Dr MABEL
We assumed you should know since it's your daughter's surgery, but you don't because you are still not on talking terms with Dr Chidi!
Dr RAPHAEL
Rephrase that, Mabel; he refused to move on from his past because The Dr Chidi I know has longed moved his ass on.
(He teases Michael)
MICHAEL
You know what? It's pointless talking with you all!
(He walks out of the office)
"Temi couldn't keep her curiosity in her pocket any longer"
TEMI
What was that all about?
Dr HENRY
Oh, you don't know? I thought you both were close
TEMI
(She found Henry's reply to her question offensive)
No, I don't; if I do, I wouldn't be inquiring.
Dr RAPHAEL
Relax, Temi, you don't have to be always serious all the time; Dr Chidi was the man Michael's Ex left him for.
TEMI
Do you mean Dr Chidi is dating Michael's Ex?
Dr PASCAL
That was before.
I heard they ended a month ago after Dr Chidi was done with her Lollipop.
TEMI
(Lolipop? What could that mean? )
Lollipop? What do you mean by Lollipop?
Dr HENRY
(He appears Suprise that they could be a slight chance that Temi didn't know what it meant)
Don't play dumb; everyone here knows what that means!
TEMI
(She suspected it was sex-related but she didn't want to say something she wasn't really sure about)
But I don't. Honestly!
Dr PASCAL
Dr Chidi banged her till he got tired, then he moved on to the next!
Dr TEMI
Wow, now I get it, but how is that funny? It isn't fair that you all take turns in teasing Michael; you are his friends. You should help him move on.
(She couldn't comprehend why that would laugh over something that crucial)
Dr HENRY
Michael had moved passed all of that; if only you had met him back then when Kemi left him with Awelle, Hmm!
TEMI
What a minute, is Kemi, the mother of Awelle, the same woman who left Michael for Chidi?
Dr RACHAEL
Yes, she is; we heard she was tired of Michael's financial status, so she started going out with Dr Chidi, the most handsome doctor here.
TEMI
(The most handsome doctor? How? He doesn't even come close to Dr Henry talk more of Michael; Temi said to herself)
But what kind of a mother would leave her child behind? I get that not all ladies will stay with a man that isn't financially stable, but never will I imagine that a mother will leave her child behind.
Dr MABEL
We thought the same, too, my dear; she is so heartless, Michael did everything for that woman to stay, but as they say, nothing can keep a woman who can't find value and contentment with what she has in her possession.
TEMI
(I just hope he has moved on; She said to herself)
But if Michael has moved on, why isn't he on talking terms with Dr Chidi?
Dr PASCAL
Michael might have found peace, but that dude reminds him so much of his biggest mistake, and Dr Chidi was aware that they were both dating back then. He disregarded that and still chased after Kemi.
"Dr Chidi walks into the office"
Dr CHIDI
I believe non of us are paid to talk about each other; if it were so, I would have studied something less complex than Medicine!
"Sorry, sir, they all said in Surprise; it never crossed their mind that Dr Chidi would visit the emergency ward that early"
Who is Dr Temi?
TEMI
I am Dr Temi, sir.
(How can they say this dude is cuter than Michael?; she said to herself)
Dr CHIDI
I learnt from Dr Yemi that you predicted earlier diagnoses on Awelle; please, I will need all information on her present health state, including all initial test results.
TEMI
Sure, sir, this is her medical file.
(She handed them over to him)
Dr CHIDI
You will be joining me for the surgery tomorrow prepare for it.
(He turns to leave)
TEMI
But I am not vast in that area, sir; I doubt if my presence will be of value to the surgery.
(She gets nervous)
Dr CHIDI
There is a first time for everything Dr Temi; you need to seize every moment here if you want to become a better doctor!
TEMI
Sir, I will have to talk to Dr Yemi about this.
Dr CHIDI
I have spoken to him about this already. That little girl is your patient. You do not abandon your responsibilities as a doctor, all these new generation doctors. I do not know where your lecturers went wrong; you will be on my team tomorrow for the surgery. Prepare for it.
(He walks out of the room)
"Dr Yemi walks into the office"
Dr YEMI
Dr Temi in my office now!
(He walks out of the office)
|Dr YEMI's OFFICE|
"Temi walks into his office"
TEMI
Good Morning, sir.
Dr YEMI
Good Morning, Dr Chidi came to me about the little girl's surgery, and he wants you to join his team for the surgery.
TEMI
He just spoke to me about it; thank you, sir, for giving me this opportunity to come in contact with such experience.
Dr YEMI
You are welcome. I trust you will be of help to him and his team.
Before you go; I have been curious about something.
TEMI
What would that be, sir?
(She appears Nervous)
Dr YEMI
A few days ago, Michael couldn't finance that little girl's surgery. I doubt if he sorted things out on his own. Did you get involved?
TEMI
With all due respect, sir, I think answering that question is unnecessary.
The most important thing is that Awelle is getting her surgery tomorrow.
Dr YEMI
Very true, but I would advise you stay away from patients personal problems. You may be born with a silver spoon, but you can't gift everyone a bag of silver opportunities just because you can!
TEMI
It is more blessed to give than to receive; I also believe the one who has it in his possession has the right to decide what to do with that which he or she possesses.
"Dr Yemi figures out that he was enlightening a basket"
Dr YEMI
(He changes the topic of conversation)
An invitation to your father's Election party came in this Morning, so how does it feel to be the governor's daughter?
TEMI
I feel like a Balogun, sir.
Dr YEMI
(He notice she wasn't interested in the topic)
All right, you may take your leave now.
TEMI
Thank you, sir.
(She walks out of the office)

"Eniola grows impatient. It was Mario's first time but still she expected more"
BACKGROUND MUSIC; Many ways Buju ft Wizkid🎶
ENIOLA
Mario, that's my ass!
( She could feel the tip of his pride on the surface of her Anus)
MARIO
Oh, sorry, I can't see!
(He gives it a second time. He could feel her dripping. But where the hell could this stuff be?)
ENIOLA
No, Mario, you are getting it all wrong!
(She Wraps her hands around his pride)
yes, that's it!
(She slowly inserts his pride into her dripping cherry"
MARIO
Eniola, this is so sweet; I have never felt this way before!
(He smashes her from the back
ENIOLA
Eat me up, Mario. I promise you; your first time will be your best sex
"She pushes out her ass and drops her chest on a soft pillow. He drops his right hand on her back as he teases her left nipple with his left fingers"
Oh my G Mario, you are see such a good boy!
(She bits the edges of the pillow to contain the voice in her)
MARIO
Oh my G!
(He grabs her neck with his right hand)
ENIOLA
You are so bad; the way you hold me, Mario, words can't explain!
(She exclaims like she was pitching on the high D!
MARIO
Yes, I'm cumin!
(He ejaculates in her cherry)
ENIOLA
Did you just cum inside of me?
(She pushes him away)
MARIO
I'm sorry I couldn't help it!
ENIOLA
But I told you not to. How dare you cum inside of me? Are you stupid?
MARIO
I'm sorry, I couldn't help it; you know it's my first time.
ENIOLA
I don't care. You are not the first virgin I have screwed, and obviously, you won't be the last; you should be ashamed of yourself.
(She gets p from the bed, holding on to her sagging breast)
MARIO
What do we do now?
ENIOLA
Just get out of here. I can take care of myself. I need to tidy up before dinner. We are expecting some important guests today.
(She rushes to the shower)
MARIO
All right, I will wait for you
ENIOLA
For what? Are you dumb or what? Get out of here!
(She turns on the shower)
MARIO
I'm leaving now; I will call you later tomorrow
ENIOLA
Mario, just get out of here and make sure nobody sees you!

|MR AYO BALOGUN's CHAMBERS|
Mrs B BALOGUN
Ayo, talk to me. How many times do I have to apologize for what happened to Nanny? It was never my intention to hurt her. I know she means a lot to you.
(She kneels before him)
MR A BALOGUN
How many times I'm I going to say this? Let me be Bisola. What if something worse than this had happened? God knows I wouldn't have forgiven you; the reason why Nanny's life was put at risk is even more disappointing. How can you bring yourself to fight with Tina? Tina, of all people that I expect you shouldn't have tamed the moment she walked into this household.
I do not know what to do with you, I haven't even married her, and you are already picking fights with her. Probably when I tie the knot with her, I will come home one day to find out that both of you have killed each other!
Mrs B BALOGUN
I know I messed up, Ayo; I'm sorry; please, let's forget this. I promise it won't happen again; I do not want to be at that table today discussing Taiwo's wedding while I know we are not on good terms.
MR A BALOGUN
I have heard you, Bisola. I know it is not easy to have her around but for my sake and our family, just let her be, Ejor!
Mrs B BALOGUN
Thank you, my love.
(She hugs him)
"Tina knocks on the door"
MR A BALOGUN
Who is there? Come in!
"Tina walks into the Chambers"
TINA
Oh, I can come back later.
(She turns to leave)
MR A BALOGUN
No!
come in, Tina, come here!
TINA
I wanted to check up on you, sir.
MR A BALOGUN
Thank you, Tina, I know I have scolded you about what happened, but I want to say this in the presence of both of you, please this should be the last time that I hear about a fight again; there is nothing to fight about.
Tina you need to know your place, Bisola remains my first wife, you should give her the respect she deserves. As for you, Bisola, Tina is not the devil; she is not here to take anything from you. Please treat her nicely, if not for my sake, for the sake of the baby coming.
TINA
I have heard you, sir; I will be on my best behaviour, T
BISOLA
Same here; I will do my best to tolerate her presence
(She rolls her eyes at Tina)
MR A BALOGUN
All right then, it's settled, now let's go to Nanny's room and apologize to her.
(He wraps his hands around their neck)

|TEMI COMES HOME FROM WORK|
MARIA
Welcome, ma
(She takes off Temi's shoes)
"Onyinye walks into the sitting room"
ONYINYE
Good Evening ma.
(She carries Temi's bag )
TEMI
Ahh, Onyinye, what are you doing here?
(She appears suprise to see her)
ONYINYE
My Mom said I should assist Maria here while Granny is still recovering.
TEMI
That's nice, so are you sleeping over?
ONYINYE
Maybe!
that depends on if I'm needed at home. Bro Michael said he would call you if need be
TEMI
Who is with Awelle since you are here? Because I know Michael took some extra shifts today
(She drops her tired body on one of the dining chairs)
ONYINYE
My Mom is there; she insist I stay with Maria at least for a few days till Granny's health improves
"Temi keeps wondering how a girl with such background sounds so polished and grammatically organized"
TEMI
What secondary school did you attend?
ONYINYE
Festac Community College, though I left there in my last year
TEMI
Where did you finish then?
ONYINYE
Michael was trying to pay off some debts back then, so I decided to study from home till my WAEC exams came up.
"Taiwo overheard their conversation"
TAIWO
(He walks into the room)
You mean you skipped the whole of your certificate classes?
ONYINYE
Good Evening sir, yes, I did, but I didn't miss out much. I still did well in the exams
TEMI
Good evening Taiwo
(She turns back to Onyinye's direction)
so how were your grades?
MARIA
She did very well. She topped her class. She had the best result that year and in the school's history
TAIWO
Wow, that's nice so, did you take JAMB (Joint Admission Matriculation Board) that year?
ONYINYE
Yes, I did, but I couldn't get in. Onyinye
TEMI
But why? didn't you do well?
ONYINYE
I scored Three hundred and forty (340), but I couldn't get in because of finance
TAIWO
Three hundred and forty(340)?
That's very impressive. You must have been sad that you couldn't get in back then
ONYINYE
To be honest, I was but not any longer; I believe that time is of the essence at the right time; I will further my education.
TEMI
I learnt you were given admission this year, but because of Awelle's health, you may have to wait another year.
ONYINYE
Sadly yes!
TAIWO
No, you won't, my dear; you are too intelligent to be left to the dust; your family have helped us a lot this period, so it is only fair that we return the favour.
Inform Temi about everything you will need to resume as soon as possible. I wished I could stay and get to know you more. However, I have to get ready for the dinner
(He gets up to leave)
ONYINYE
Ahh, Thank you, sir. I won't let you down. I promise I will find a way to pay you back for your kindness
(She falls on her Kneels)
TAIWO
Oh no, that's fine, you don't have to pay a dime, go to school like every other child, you deserve it!
please get up.
TEMI
Thank you, Taiwo
TAIWO
Just let me know all the details. I have t go upstairs now
(He walks out of the room)

TONY
What are your plans, mother? We both know you won't sit and watch The Baloguns win again!
Mrs ADESOJI
Of course, son, I can't rest till I destroy that family. I have a plan.
TONY
What do you intend to do this time, mother?
Mrs ADESOJI
The less you know, the better; I do not want to involve any of you in my business with The Balogun's.
I almost lost your brother because of my careless act.
TONY
I understand, mother, but all of this happened because you decided to act on your own I'm certain you are aware that two heads are better than one. All you have to do is let me in on this
Mrs ADESOJI
Just focus on the family business. I can handle The Balogun's .
(She picks up a bottle of red wine)
TONY
But mother, you can't do this on your own you need me. All you have to do is trust that I can take care of myself
Mrs ADESOJI
I will think about it, son.
TONY
Give me a clue, mother, give me a hint!
Mrs ADESOJI
All I can say is that there will be a wedding, not the contract kind but one that is influenced by fear and criticisms from the public.
(She wears a contagious smile)
____________________________________ |DINNER WITH THE ABIOLA's AT MR AYO BALOGUNS MANSION|
CHIEF BALOGUN
I'm delighted that I have found peace. Finally, we all gather here to tender for our future and that of our children to come.
(He raises his glass of wine for a toast)
GEN ABIOLA
Thank you for this privilege to dine with you and your family.
Dr SHADE
I want to raise a toast to my sister and friend Hon, justice Kate Balogun
(She raises her glass in a sign of respect and recognition)
Mrs K BALOGUN
I'm sure we all know I have retired from the practice of law!
HON J BOLA
But that doesn't change the fact that you are the best Chief Justice this nation has ever had. Your reign can't be outmatched. Thank you also for being the best sister I could ask for.
Mrs K BALOGUN
Enough of these flatters before you all fill my stomach with butterflies, then all these wonderful meals will go to waste.
GEN ABIOLA
So with your permission, I believe we can go down to business.
CHIEF BALOGUN
Of course, General, everything on the list is ready. I think we left nothing out!
GEN ABIOLA
Oh no, Chief, we can skip those formalities. We have been friends for a long time we are where we are today as a family because of you. I think the most important thing here today is the legal documents proving a contract between both families.
CHIEF BALOGUN
The essence of our tradition can not be over-emphasized. I am Chief Balogun, a renowned politician, but first, I am a Yoruba man!
Mo bọwọ fun aṣa.
GEN ABIOLA
All right, Chief, if you insist, we will accept all you have brought
CHIEF
All right, I believe we can now move to the next thing on our agenda
(He signals Barista Kasim, The Balogun's family lawyer, to take over)
BARISTA
I believe Barista Abimbola has briefed The Abiola's on the terms of this contract, so let's move straight to the signing.
(He drops the paper work in front of Chief Balogun.
CHIEF BALOGUN
This is a new beginning for all of us!
(He picks up the pen in front of him)
TAIWO
(In his subconscious)
This is it for me; it is a dream come true for my bride, a business contract for both families but a living hell for me; how do I break free from these chains?
