My usual comment INTERESTING!INTERESTING!!INTERESTING!!! The inclusion of Bukky in unraveling the puzzle of this hit and run case will be fatal ooooooo. Moreover Bukky's character can not last with this her attitude of allowing her emotion to override her actions.

‘’Guy you sure?’’

‘’E nor go pass Thursday’’

''Correct guy''

''Gotta go now. I'll call you soon''

Then Jesuorobo lit a fresh cigarette and continued to smoke. In actual fact, he had not found anyone willing to give him the money but he was operating on faith. He prayed he would find the balance in good time and make the payment by the following week. If the house was his, surely the agent would not give it out. At this stage, Jesuorobo was beyond desperate and frustrated at the same time.

About thirty minutes later, he noticed as Imonitie opened the gate and drove out. Pearl was locking the gate when he quickly got up and walked to her house. In the meantime, Bukky had since left the curtain but the moment she heard the sound of her gate, she rushed back to the curtain and watched as Jesuorobo walked across to Dr Ebosele’s house.

She came out of her house and stood on the porch with her arms akimbo. She could see them talking in front of Pearl’s gate. For once, Bukky wished she was a fly! She wished she could fly and perch on a tree and listen to all they were saying. It was so strange; the new found liaison between Jesuorobo and Dr Ebosele.

Meanwhile at the other end of the street, Pearl gave Jesuorobo a watered down version of what transpired the previous day. Once she was done, Jesuorobo shook his head in disbelief ‘’sorry to hear that’’ he whispered.

Then Pearl sighed deeply and continued ‘’my husband will give you the money tomorrow…’’

‘’No, no, no I don’t want no drama Mrs doc’’

‘’I’m sorry but he will handle it himself and that is not negotiable. Besides I can’t come to your compound because of what happened yesterday. If you feel your gate man is trustworthy, my husband can leave the money there…’’

‘’No, no, no I want it straight in my hand’’

‘’Give me your number then so I can call you and he can meet you outside’’

‘’No, no, no I don’t want no call. I don’t want anyone tracing anything to me. The police are getting smarter and I don’t want any call traced to me. I just want to collect my cash and you heard me CASH. I don’t want to cash any cheque’’

‘’Barrister Okungbowa, you are demanding like a diva. I’m just going to allow this thing proceed as we planned initially. 6.30pm tomorrow and my husband will meet you in your house. You have nothing to fear because he can’t beat you inside your own compound. I have to go’’

Then Pearl walked into her house and locked her gate.

That evening was epic! For starters once Osazuwa got back from work, there was nothing to eat. He was so hungry and as he buttered a piece of bread, Bukky continued to scream and narrate the day’s event. He cut some more slices and slathered it with butter while she continued to judge matter. By the time he was done, the loaf of bread was finished. Then he drank a glass of water and stared at her red eyes ‘’is that why you couldn’t prepare something else?’’ he asked.

‘’Your son ruined what I was cooking and he insulted me. Is that all you can say? Food?’’

‘’At least if I ate well, I would appreciate half of what you’ve been saying. Half of what you’ve said has flown off the top of my head’’

‘’Oh my God, this is beyond belief!’’

‘’Bukky please calm down’’

‘’I can’t be calm; that boy must leave this house today. Wherever he has gone to let him continue to hang there! I have seen Jesuorobo on his worst day but none compares to what I saw this afternoon. That boy threatened me with my cooking spoon! He stuck it right in my face and I was scared for my life. Osazuwa, your son has crossed the line and he must be punished!’’

‘’Bukola, are you without sin?’’ Osazuwa asked in a calm voice.

‘’What sort of question is that?’’

‘’I’m just asking because you’ve been talking in the past thirty minutes. What you don’t know is while I was still at the store, Jesuorobo came there and relayed everything to me’’

‘’Jesus Christ! What treachery!’’ Bukky screamed.

Then Osazuwa got up and pointed a finger at her ‘’Bukola, you have no one but yourself to blame. If you demand respect, then you MUST give respect yourself. Jesuorobo is 26 years old. He is not a child and you must respect his right to privacy. You should not wander in and out of a room he has locked. You cannot riffle through my wardrobe, pick his spare key and have a ball in his room’’

‘’Excuse me?’’ Bukky asked in a shocked tone.

‘’I know what you do and just because I ignore you does not mean you are right. I don’t even know why I ignore you – that is not my style on a good day. Jesuorobo has been complaining about someone going through his stuff and I know it’s not me. We all know its not Rabiu but there is one more person left in the same house and it is you. I set a trap this last time. I kept the keys in a different location and when you returned it, you kept it in the usual spot. It was then I believed my son. Bukola, what are you looking for in his room? What did you keep in Jesuorobo’s room that you keep going back to find?’’

Then Bukky lowered her voice and moved closer ‘’he is doing hard drugs in this house!’’ she whispered.

‘’Please don’t go there again. I won’t accept it this time. Your obsession with this drug thing nearly drove me to a point of madness. It was so bad I got someone to sweep this house clean. There was not a single drug as you imagined. Jesuorobo does not do hard drugs and you will do well to stop spreading that awful rumor’’

‘’Okay but I hope you know you are part of that young man’s problem. He is spoilt rotten because you give him free hand. That is how you let him off the hook that time he was stealing medicine from the pharmacy and selling to make quick cash. Very expensive medicine and what did you do when I found the stash in his room? You let him off with a warning’’

‘’How long ago was that? What someone did in 100 level or so? Has he ever been caught selling my drugs since then? Have I ever complained to you that medicine is getting lost again? Why are you trying to act like you have never done anything wrong in your entire life? Is that how I parade your sins before you?’’

‘’Just give me credit when due. At that point you were firing staff up and down meanwhile the thief was your son! I found that out for you through the same method you are using to abuse me today. That child is so entitled, it riles me up! Jesuorobo is a grown a.ss man who has refused to leave home. You allow him remain in this house yet he disrespects me - same goes for the old man by the gate. I ask him to do something and he talks back at me and forms clueless. You allow these people get away with impunity. I take action then you nullify it. You reward their insolence time and time again and you make a mockery of me. YOU ALLOW THEM DEFY ME!’’

Then Osazuwa began to laugh ‘’are you okay?'' he asked. ''Defy you? Who do you think you are? Are you God? Are you a god?

if Bukky was a god, she would have sent Jesuorobo from that house or who knows, turn him mad. She would brainwash her mum spiritually so she stops disturbing her. This story seems to be heading for the rocks, I sense double tragedy.
