A Journey Of Love – Episode 5

Mrs. Emily ignored their greetings using her eyes to

survey

the room she found herself in.”what a local and

disgusting

house” she said to herself still looking around the sitting

room.

“Me

and Daniel spoked on the phone. He didn’t tell me that

you

were coming today. Please have a sit” Ella said with a

smile

pointing to a plastic chair beside her. Mrs. Emily didn’t

say

anything. she was just busy staring angrily at the

plastic chair.

“Please sit down” Ella begged again with a smile.

“What

do you want from my son?” Mrs. Emily asked Ella

adjusting

her look to her. It came as a shock to Ella.

“Excuse me

ma”Ella said trying to get her correctly.

“Don’t

play games with me. I know your type. I have you

thoroughly

investigated and I know everything about you.” Mrs. Emily

said.

Ogechi stare at Ella who was also confused and staring

at

Mrs. Emily.

“I don’t get you ma” Ella responded confusedly.

“the

whole thing is, leave my son alone. He does not belong to your

class” Mrs. Emily shouted

at Ella with

a frown face. It came to Ella as a shocked. She thought that

when

Daniel’s mum come back from London, that, she and Daniel will

marry.

that Daniel’s mum will love her,but, she was wrong. Mrs. Emily

never

liked her even from the very first day she set her eyes on Ella.

Ella

felt sad. Her heart began to hot her as if it will explore in any

minutes.

“I know your type. You’re only but a gold digger. How much?

name

your prize” Mrs Emily asked. Ella was just looking at her angrily.

“We

may not be in your class or have the kind of money that you

have.

But,

one thing is sure, we’re definitely not hungry” Ella responded

with a frown face.

“I love your son,yes. But, I could have loved him even if he

wasn’t

your son” Ella added,getting infuriated this time.

“Don’t

waste my time little devil. How much?” Mrs Emily shouted

at

Ella. Ella took a sorrowful breathe calming herself down.

“I

think is time going to your home now” Ella said opening the

door

more wild for her. Mrs. Emily laughed angrily clapping her hands.

“Just

look at you. can’t you just be reasonable, huh, be reasonable

let

me settle you. I don’t want to see your stupid self running

after

my son” Mrs. emily shouted at Ella.

“I

said, leave now mother” Ella shouted at Mrs. Emily fighting hard

to

withhold the tears that formed in her eyes. Mrs. Emily adjusted

her

glance to every edge of the sitting room before stunning out.

Ella

forcefully closed the door. Ogechi went and embraced Ella,

consoling

her. Just then, Mr. Denis walked into the sitting room from the

backyard.

“Ella, I thought that I heard people quarreling?” Mr. Denis asked.

“papa,yes.

it’s Daniel’s mum. papa can you believe this. She actually came

to

offer me money as a pooper to leave her son alone” Ella explained.

“What

did you tell her?” Mr. Denis asked.

“what else! I told her that, her money cannot buy the love

I

have for Daniel” Ella responded and Mr. Denis nodded his head

positively.

“Come

and sit down” Mr. Denis told Ella.

“Issokay” Ogechi consoled Ella walking her to a sit.

“it’s

alright. You will be fine” Mr. Denis said, as one could see both him

and

Ogechi, patting Ella’s shoulders.

“cheer up” Mr. Denis voice echoed again.
