EPISODE 26

'Good afum, mas,' Mma finally produced.

'How are you, Mma?' Cynthia said.

Mma opened her mouth to respond but Vanessa cut her off. 'Oya, you, carry this box inside.'

Mma rolled the box away.

Vanessa didn't stay for too long. She had a glass of water and picked her handbag. Cynthia walked her to the door.
Vanessa hugged her. 'Babe, hope you remember all I told you?'

Cynthia nodded but there was a tinge of hesitation to her eyes.

'Good.' Vanessa left. She knew it'd be tough for her to do but she trusted the conviction she'd presented. She had but little choice.

Some minutes later, Cynthia joined Mma in the kitchen.

'What are you making?'

'Onugbu, Ma.'

'What's that?'

'Onugbu soup.'

Cynthia made a face. She gestured around the items on the surface. 'And you using all these stuffs?'

Mma began to point. 'That one ede, ma.'

Cynthia nodded. 'Cocoyam, I know it.'

'That one okporoko.'

'Stockfish.'

'Yes.'

'You using so many.'

'Oga saying we buying plenty. Four thousand naira.'

'He followed you to the market, I see.'

'Yes, he driving me but I using keke to come back.'

'Ok. What's that?' Cynthia's long, purple-painted nail was pointing at two wrapped pieces.

'Oh, that one is ogiri, ma.'

'O-gi what?'

'O-g-i-r-i.'

'What is it used for?'

'You adding it to the soup and it giving it wonderful scent.'

Mma picked the green piece and started to unwrap it.

Cynthia watched intently.

'This it, ma.' Mma showed the darkish paste to Cynthia.

She covered her nose and ran out of the kitchen.

EPISODE 27

Mma set the table and called Madam.

Cynthia dropped her iPad and pulled out of the couch. She dragged to the table.

'Water for washing hand, ma.'

Cynthia opened the china containing soup. 'Are you sure I can eat this?'

'I suring you very well, ma. You eating it and licking your fingers.'

'Did you put that dark smelling stuff?'

'No, ma,' Mma lied.

'Thank Heavens.' Cynthia washed her hands, one hand actually. 'Are you not joining me?'

'I eating in the room, ma.'

'Why?'

'I liking to eating there.'

'Mma, the table is meant for dining, that's why it's called a dining table.'

'Ma?'

'You eat here not in the room.'

'Ok, ma.'

A moment later and Mma dropped her soup plate on the table and sat facing madam.

Cynthia glanced up at her. 'Why dish your food in those plates?'

'Ma?'

'Those are old dishes, we don't use them anymore.'

Mma did not understand; dish the verb and dishes the plural noun all seem very confusing. She said ok anyways.

Cynthia picked a lump of stock fish from her soup and threw into her mouth. 'The soup actually tastes nice.'

Mma smiled. 'I telling you before.'

The two pregnant women sat down quietly and enjoyed their meal.

Halfway in, Mma stood up. She beat her belly lightly.

'What is wrong with you?' Cynthia asked.

'My belle turning me. I think I going to toilet.'

Mma had been gone for a while when Cynthia's eyes flitted across the table and a thought came to her mind.

Perfect time -- she was almost sure she heard Vanessa's voice in her mind.

She held up her soup-soiled fingers still in the air for a while, mind busy with cogitation.

She finally rose and walked into the room.

A moment later she was back at the table. She stared at Mma's food, turning the bottle Vanessa had given in her hand.

Then, with one quick sudden motion, she let a drop of the purplish content of the bottle into Mma's soup.

Cynthia is so stupid to follow Vanessa's plan. I wish she knows what Vanessa is really after. I hope Mma doesn't eat the food again or the plate should break when she's about to sit down. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks Dan.

EPISODE 28

'Are you okay?' Cynthia asked as Mma returned to the table.

'I fine now. I just using the toilet.'

'Ok. Finish your food before it gets too cold.'

Mma stared at the soup as though she couldn't recognize what it was. 'I think I full already. I not eating again.'

Cynthia's eyes ran up at her. 'You are filled?'

'Yes.'

'So who will now finish the food?'

Mma wondered if she was upset. She had never known her to concern herself with who finished or did not finish her meal. She was the perfect picky eater herself: two or three spoons of rice and a few bites at the chicken and that's it.

It surprised Mma now that she was still at the table, still on a dish she wasn't familiar with.

Mma shook her head. 'I not eating again. I rushing and eating the food before and now it tighting my belle.'

'Oh ok. You can clear the table then.' Cynthia washed her hand.

Mma left with the dirty plates and she quickly poured a glass of juice and added the killer drop in it.

She swirled the yellow liquid in the glass and dropped it on the table.

Soon Mma was back at the table to carry the wash water.

'Take the juice,' Cynthia said, 'it will help your indigestion.'

'Thanking you, ma.' Mma picked the glass and downed all of it's contents in a single drink.
