Water Just Won’t Do – Episode 2

WATER JUST WON’T DO. episode two

 

 

Mr David: Good morning, Stacy. Can I have a quick word with you in my office, please. Thanks.

 

Stacy: Can that wait for ten minutes, please. I’m in the middle of something very important.

 

Mr David: Unfortunately, it can’t wait. Come with me, please.

 

Stacy: Alright….Kindly share out more interesting stories from generalloaded.com using the floating social media icon button at the bottom of the screen.

 

Mr David: How have you been, Stacy?

 

Stacy: Still alive….

 

Mr David: I understand. Must be a very difficult time for you and honestly, I did everything within my reach not to be the carrier of this bad news too; but the responsibility fell on me, sadly

 

Stacy: What bad news?

 

Mr David: Phewww! Stacy, I’m afraid you have been relieved of your duty with us.

 

And it is with immediate effect.

 

I’m so sorry, Stacy. I did all I could but the management would have none of it.

 

They were particularly concerned that you had our t-shirt on, in that clip…

 

Stacy: Okay…

 

Mr David: Stacy, listen to me, this is only a phase. It will pass only if you remain strong.

 

I believe in you even if nobody else does.

 

You are not whatever is seen in that video. You are an amazing, intelligent and hard-working young woman. Never ever believe otherwise.

 

 

If you think there is any way I can be of help, please do not hesitate to let me know.

 

Stacy: Thank you, Mr David. I’ll take my leave now. I’ll leave all the company’s property in my possession with Kemi. Thank you.

 

Mr David: Come here! (Hugs her)

 

Stacy: Thank you. Bye bye

 

 

Mr David: All the best, Stacy

 

 

(Life hasn’t really been gentle on Stacy. She lost her parents when she was only fifteen and she played the role of parents to her younger brother and sister. Her experiences in life may have bagged her the title “a strong woman”

 

Her tears do not flow easily. She takes things in her strides and always has a positive attitude to life

 

She left the office for home. When she got home, she found Stephen at home catching up with the football matches he had recorded…)

 

Stacy: Sweeetheart! You were meant to be at work…

 

Stephen: So are you. Why are you home?

 

Stacy: I.. I wasn’t feeling too great.

 

Stephen: It’s a pity. Well, it’s my off day.

 

Stacy: My bad! I forgot it’s Thursday today! Where is Steph?

 

Stephen: Where is she normally at by eleven o clock on a week day?

 

Stacy: Nursery?

 

Stephen: well, what do you think?

 

 

Stacy: Oh great! Mary took her?

 

Stephen: I did…

 

Stacy: What breakfast did she have before leaving and what was in her lunch box?

 

Stephen: She had omelette and cheese. I didn’t remember to give her anything for lunch. But not to worry, I’ll make her something at lunch time and take it to her.

 

Stacy: Oh that’ll be great! I’ll quickly change and come talk to you.

 

Stephen: By the way, the bedroom is all yours now. I’ve just put the visitors room together and I’ll be spending my nights there, henceforth. Just in case you were wondering where my stuff are.

 

Stacy: Why? You are not a visitor, are you?

 

Stephen: You don’t expect me to answer that, do you?

 

Stacy: Alright! I don’t want us to start arguing again. Can we talk?

 

Stephen: I’m busy.

 

Stacy: Is football more important than us?

 

Stephen: When you say us, who and who are you referring to?

 

Stacy: You and I and Steph! Us! Our family! Our home, Stephen!!!

 

Stephen: Do you know how ridiculous you actually sound right now?

 

Stacy, there is no us! It Will only be a matter of time before you realise it.

 

 

Stacy: Stephen, I just lost my job!

 

 

Stephen: Awwww! Such a shame. You see, these things happen in life okay. I suppose you can always get yourself a job.

 

You have your qualifications and experience, and if you are lucky, the company may not be aware of how famous you are on the internet.

 

Stacy: Stephen, can you stop please! What joy is there in kicking a man who is already on the floor!

 

Stephen: A man who has no reason whatsoever to be on the floor! Stacy, I gave you everything! Every damn thing!

 

You told me you were born again. You acted it, I believed you…

 

Now I know why the bible says that even the devil transforms himself into an angel of light.

 

Stacy: Stephen, I am born again and you are in no position to judge me. Thanks!

 

Stephen: Indeed! By the way, I sent you a link. Have a look at it.

 

Stacy: I didn’t get any link.

 

Stephen: Well, just Google www.rossynyou.com and see more of you there. I’m

 

not sure you have seen this one….
