EPISODE 202





THANK YOU... "
MAX SAID AS HE WAS OFFERED A GLASS OF WINE....

Buzo look at him with Shock still etched on his face, waiting for an explanation......
"You didn't tell me you had a son... "Buzo said

Eunice swallowed.. "I realise i was pregnant after i left..... "she said bitterly...

"Why didn't you return... ?

"Return...! She countered ..."You chase me away because you of your wife... "

Buzo bit his lip... ,a bit embarrassed Eunice blared that out in front of the boy she claimed to be her son...

"Is okay father..... "Max interjects when he noticed the unsettled expression on his face........ "Mother already told me everything.... "

Chief Buzo grunts, his mind flashing back to the day Eunice left.., Eunice was a woman he was going out with despite been married to Jacob's mother, he loved Eunice, at least he believes so..., everything changed when his wife found out he was cheating on her.., it was hell broke loose..., his wife almost got Eunice killed, so he had no choice but to let her out of town.., when she didn't listen, he threatened her and scared her into leaving....., that was a part of his life he always wished didn't happen.....

"But despite everything she told me. "Max continue interrupting his thoughts... "I still wanted to see my father and am glad i found you.."

Buzo downcast his face, totally ashamed of the things he did to her, the words he said to her to make her leave .......

"Am really sorry for everything that happened back then Eunice.... "he said crisply

Eunice knit her brows... "There is no need apologizing, that was years ago, i don't like to be reminded of it.., i only brought your son so you could see him and he could meet his father.. "

Buzo purse his lips, his eyes fixated on Max..., he wonder if he was really his son or Eunice was just lying......

"Am really happy seeing you again... he said to Eunice..

Eunice snort and fold her hands across her chest...., not minding his words, she shift her gaze to Max...... "If you're through discussing with your father.., meet me at the hotel.... "

"Hotel....! Chief Buzo cut in..... "Why are you staying in a hotel.., you can stay here.... "

"We can't do that.., you understand why, don't you chief.....? Eunice retorted

Buzo nod his head.... "Can my son atleast stay here, atleast spend sometime with me, let me get to know him...."

"Am not leaving my son behind, i....

"I will stay mum... "Max cut in...

"Not even for a second.... "She snarled..... "You've seen your father, we're going back home tomorrow. "

"I can't mum., i just met my father, let me get to know him.. "

Eunice puff as frown lines encroach on her forehead....

"Look Eunice... "Buzo said gently..... "I know you're angry with me, but please am begging you, stay awhile and let me know my son..., i have missed so many years in his life..., so please consider my plea.., stay.. "

Eunice look away...

"Mum..... "

"Fine...., but am sleeping at the hotel.... "

"But....

"Fine... "Max cut in.... "You can always visit tomorrow....."

"Don't even think of doing anything to my son.... "Eunice said furiously and left them...

Max exhales....

"Your mother is still very angry at me.... "Buzo said

"She'll calm down father..., i know she will. "









*******************
NEXT DAY.




Bianca smile as she dress up Gerald, wearing on him the royal dress that was pick by Carlos for the occasion......
"You look exactly like a king, Gerald...."Bianca said

"Is my mummy coming.....? Gerald ask, voice tender...

Bianca sigh, wondering how she is going to tell him his mother is dead.., gone, never to return again......, she smile at him again, her hands on his both hands...... "No Gerald..., your mummy won't be coming today.., but your mum will be watching us from where she is... "

"Where is she....? Gerald ask shapily

Bianca suck her teeth.... "She's somewhere, getting you a gift for this day..., she wants to surprise you but most importantly she wants you to be king, so you'll be on your best behavior today.., no crying, do you promise me that... ?

Gerald wipe off a drop of tear from his eye, then he nodded.....

"Do you remember what i told you.., do you remember the vows....?

Gerald nodded...

"What should you say when you're crown king....?

"I pledge to serve this land with all might and strength as my predecessors have done..., not to shun the suffering of my people but bring good will to them.., to answer their call when they need me.......i........ "He pause, scratch his head trying to remember the rest........

Bianca puff and hold him...... "To rule with all truth and honesty.., to bring nothing but favour to the land..., to be upright, just and be wise in counsel.. So help me God.... "

Gerald nodded shabbily, just then a tear drop from his eye....

"Hey.., you promised no crying...... "

"I want to see my mummy.... "

Bianca jaw dropped......, she exhales and face him again.... "I told you your mummy went out to get a gift for you.... "She said irritably

Gerald sniff and the tears rolled down, spoiling the makeup Bianca has applied on his face.......








*******************
Claude exhales as she saw her reflection in the mirror, she stare at her stomach and a raw feeling of sadness creep into her.... Forcing tears in her eyes...

She wipe them off, accepting her pregnancy as a good fate but still parched with sorrows.....

The thought of Desmond drove her to sit on the bed.., she wished he was here to hear the good news.., she is pregnant..., she will be having another baby....

She sniff and the tears she is been fighting rolled down her cheek..
For a while she allowed them, then she wipe them off, she dry them with a handkerchief promising herself she will take care of the child no matter what happens.., what is to come...., she knew for a fact the future is going to be rough, unanticipated, rugged, horror and full of blood...

She took up her makeup bag and began to smoothen her face again, covering the spot the tears has ruined......








******************
With a deep drag, Buzo knocked on the door.., at first no answer came, then he knocked again....
"Max... "He called out

"Am in the bathroom..... "Max voice sounded...

Buzo sigh, slowly he turn down the knob...., he went in, the room was neatly cleaned..., he smile to himself..
He look around, just then he saw his comb and some hair stuck on it...,

"Father, are you there.....? Max ask from the bathroom

"Yes son... "He replied taking off the hair and slowly putting it on a small thin zip nilon...., he quickly deep it in his pocket and kept the comb back on the table...., he was inclined to find out if Max is really his son.., if he isn't, the DNA test will prove it.....

"Am going out son..... "He said...

The bathroom door opens and Max walked in with a towek tied to his waist.....

"Today is the coronation day of a new king, and am the prime minister, it's my sole right to crown the next king..., do you want to come with me.... ?

Max smile..... "I will be delighted father but i have to study....."

"Study......!

"Yes father......,reading books has become a part of me....."

"I see..., but if you go with me, you'll be witnessing one of the great coronation ,the type any kingdom will wished for.... "

Max chulkled..... "Thrones, kings, they don't really interest me.... "

"What does interest you then....?

"Books.....! He replied....... "I devote my time on them, i learn a new thing everyday from them...., but if you insist on me going with you to the coronation, i will gladly do it father....., i will be walking with my father... "

Buzo suck his teeth.... "No.., i think you should spend more time on your books...., i wouldn't want to barter your area of interest with mine..... "

"What should i prepare for your return.... ?

"You mean cook.....? Buzo ask perplexed

"Mother taught me well.... "

"But i have a cook.... "

"I have been cooking for people, it will be a great honour to cook for the man who birth me.. "

"You're a man Max.., men don't cook, that's a job for the women..... "

"On the contrary Father...., cooking is not just a job for the women..., men also cook, some men make large sums of money from it... "

"Is that how you make your money....?

Max giggled.... "No father.., cooking is just something i do..., I make money from my hard work...., writing books, working hard.....

"Have you thought of marrying and having children.....? Buzo ask

"Yes father...., i have.., but i wouldn't want my children to suffer, so i work everyday to make the money they will enjoy..... "

"If i tell you, am ready to give you anything you want, will that excuse still be a challenge....?

"Yes father..... "

Buzo jaw dropped....... "I will be giving you money.."

"I don't want your money father......, taking money from you will only make me lazy...,i need to work for myself, create something, a name for myself and most importantly make you proud..... "

A wry smile made way to Jacob's lips.., just then he began to wish the DNA results turn in his favour......, he's beginning to like this new son of his..., just the kind of son he's been looking for.....








*********************
Sad..., Gerald sat down on a chair staring gormlessly at the wall, the thought of where his mother could be keep running in his head....
He pick a stone and threw it against the wall....

"There you are....... "

Fear gripped Gerald when he saw him, he quickly stood up from the chair about to run away but Taka caught up with him......

"Where are you running to.....?

Just then Gerald gave way to tears....

Taka curl his lips wondering why the stupid boy was crying...... "Hey, look at me, i won't hurt you, okay..... "

Gerald replied him with more tears.....

"Hey....., stop crying, do you understand that.....?

Gerald nodded forcing the tears to stop.....

"Don't you know you will be a king soon, kings don't cry..... "

"I want my mummy....... "Gerald whimpered....

"What...!, your mummy..., don't you know.., your mummy is.......

"Hush....... "Bianca retorted from behind him....

She quickly grab Gerald from his hold......
"Gerald dear, why don't you go to the room, am coming okay.... "

Gerald nodded and walk away grudgingly...

Bianca snort annoyed...... "What were you about to tell him.....?

Taka exhales and turn to walk away....

Bianca quickly pulled him back.... "Am talking to you.... "

Taka grunts.... "The boy should know about his mother..... "

"You wanted to tell him his mother is dead.....?

Taka gritted.... "I thought he knew.... "

"How dare you...., how dare you do that..., have you forgotten your place in this palace, you're nothing but a servant....., you have no right to tell the king about his mother.... "

"Sorry....."Taka said abruptly spuning round to walk away...

Anger spiked Bianca she pulled him around again.... "Start counting your days, because the moment Gerald is crown king and i his guardian..., his first command will be to send you out of this palace, and don't even think for a second the queen will come to your rescue...., i will see to it that stupid low paupers like you are put back on the street where they belong..., Bianca promise you that...... "

She glared at him and left......

Taka look askance at her......, then he burst into laughter........

He stopped laughing and hissed...., he sat on the chair, legs crossed, he muttered...... "Stupid crying king..., stupid guardian..., stupid kingdom..., stupid people..."

EPISODE 203





JACOB CHANGE HIS STANDING POSITION AS HE PREEN HIMSELF IN THE MIRROR....
He scoffs, pick up a perfume and sprayed it on his clothes...

"Where are you going.....? Rose ask with folded hands..

Jacob whistle silently, not bothering to reply,he began to wear his shoes..

Rose curl her lips... "I believe am talking to someone... "

"I believe my silence answered your question... "Jacob retorted..

Rose grunts....

"Am going to the coronation.... "Jacob added

"Aren't you going to take me with you....?

Jacob grind his teeth and look askance at her... "When was the last time i took you out...?

Rose shrugged with nibbled lips

"Oh i remember... "Jacob said abruptly.... "It was the funeral...., do you remember how you insulted me... "

"Insult you...!, she scoffs..... "That must be the most expensive lie of the century.... "

Jacob grin at her... "Dear wife, you're not going... "

"Dear husband..., am coming with you.... "

"Fine.... "He countered brusquely..... "If you're want to come....,go on your own.., i wouldn't want your sharp teeth biting my hand off the steering.... "

Rose frown.....

Jacob stood up again after he'd wore the shoe.., he turn to face the mirror...

"If you're going there because of that LovePeddler, you should do well to remind her how the first one died.... "

Infuriated he shift his gaze to her.... "Is that jealousy i hear in your voice... ?

"No..., it's a reminder.... "

"Mmm... "He face the mirror again.... "My father is the prime minister, i should be there as his son... "

"As his son....!, she resounded.......

Jacob didn't reply,he grab his car keys instead...
With one last glance at her..., he left her there..

Rose snorted and sat on the bed....









******************
"I can't believe Carlos is making a little boy king, your place... "Edna boom out as Pious and Giselle entered the big parlour fully dressed for the coronation ceremony....

"I hate that man everyday that passes.. "Edna added

Pious exhales... "Don't worry mum..., we're going to take the throne back..., and it will be soon, so let them enjoy it while it last.... "

"Your father must be very angry in his grave to see the kingdom he worked and laboured For reduced to nothing...., the throne is sacred....,unworthy people shouldn't sit on it.... "Edna said

Pious squeaked... "Carlos will pay for everything mother., and he'll be paying soon... "

"Be careful out there.... "She said holding his shoulder... "Carlos can never be trusted.. "

"Yes mother....."

"And check how Francis is doing.., if you are opportune, tell him to come see me.., i have missed him so much... "

Pious nodded

Edna quickly hugged him..
They stayed like for some seconds until Edna released him from her grasp..

Pious smile, took Giselle in his arms and they walk towards their car









******************
Francis watched from the window as the crowd troop into the great hall., he swallowed and close back the curtains...

The painful memory of his father's death creep into his head driving him into sadness...
His thoughts were disrupted by the opening of the door...
He bug his eyes when he saw Taka carrying a plate of food.....

"Who gave you that food...? He blared out

Taka quickly crunched down to the floor, adjusted himself and began to eat.....

"Isn't this the food prepared for the coronation... ?

"Yes.... "Taka muttered with mouthful......

"I thought it wasn't supposed to be served to anyone until...

"I begged Rachael...."Taka cut in... "I told her i was hungry so she gave me this little one on the promise that i will eat here.., you want to join me...?

Francis exhales and face the window again...

"Are you waiting for your brother....?

Francis bit his lower lip.....

"I heard he's on the guest list... "Taka added

"There is no point, even if i see him, i can't talk to him.... "

"The chiefs are not blind.., you know that right...?

Francis shift his attention back to him..

"They've seen the two of you., you want to explain how two people who look exactly like the lost princes are in town..,one as a servant in the place where his father was killed while the other is enjoying luxury.... "

"Yes.... "Francis said..... "I know they suspect... "

"Suspect...! Taka scoffs..... "There is nothing to suspect.., they know, am very sure they're busy making plans on how to get rid of the two of you again....., so if i were your brother and you, i will start acting now before the wrong hand takes over the superior... "

Francis suck his teeth thinking of the possibility of it.... "It makes me curious.., what could they be planning....?

"What else than giving you two a swift dead.. "Taka said impetuously, teeth grinding the food...

Francis grunts and face the window again.......








******************
The crowd murmur, each asking themselves questions they give different answers and opinions to....
The hall was divided into three places set by stairs....., Claude mounted with her royal attire sat on the high stair, the queen chair and Liza beside her....

Her eyes glancing at the king chair at every minute reminding her who once sat there.., she touch her stomach and a feeling of depression began to sank into her.....

She sigh, look at her daughter and nodded her head at her..
With a snort, head high she look forward waiting patiently for what is to come...

The chiefs and special guest,,the elders, Bianca and Gerald sat on the middle stair floor., each gigling and laughing....

The crowd stood on the down floor, many murmuring and whispering things to themselves...

Iroko the chief priest quickly stood up from where he was sitting and climb to the high floor...

Liza quivered at the sight of him..

The crowd went mute when Iroko stood up tall....

Iroko glance at Carlos who motioned him to continue...
"It's so very unfortunate and painful that we lost our king at such a tender age, never have it be heard of in the history of this land... "Iroko said flattening his brows, he nib his lips and continue..... "Our late king, King Desmond is resting on the kings bossom...., his sudden death left the throne vacant but as tradition demands, one must take his place and continue his legacy..... A son... "

He stopped, muttered some words, then he turn his gaze to Claude.., then to the crowd. "It's also very unfortunate that the queen was not able to bore the late king a son before his untimely demise.., but the gods smiled on him, by giving him a son by another woman. "

Claude swallowed, her hands finding way to her stomach, she intend keeping the news of her pregnancy to herself for now.... "

"Although he's an illegitimate child... "Iroko continued....."But our forefathers and teachers had sharpened the issue of illegitimacy as void.., therefore declaring that as long as he's a prince, legitimate or not, he also has access to the throne if he is the oldest or only son... "

Bianca smile, her hands caressing Gerald's hair who was sitting close to her....

"You're about witness what our fathers have been doing, giving the kingdom a new voice, a voice who can speak for all.., a voice that will bring us out of our turmoil and put us in a place where we shall rejoice and acknowledge him as our king....., one voice that will sound above all others, to bring justice to the innocent ones and punished the guilty...... "

Iroko took a deep breathe and continue.... "It's also our custom that anyone bestowed with the prime minister duties has a duty of crowning the new king....., we therefore seek the presence of the prime minister...... "

Chief Buzo quickly stood up and walk to the front.....

Jacob smile at Bianca and Bianca reciprocated....

Gerald look at Bianca,then he began to look around, there was no sign of his mother...

"Face high Gerald.... "Bianca said disrupting him from his thoughts..... "You're about to be crown king... "

She beem another smile on her gorgeous lips when Carlos stood up to the front.....,she can't wait to be called upon as Gerald's guardian.....

"Great people of Akpatu..... "Carlos said and the crowd hail

Carlos crocked his throat..... "Today is a very remarkable day in this kingdom....., although it hasn't been easy digesting the sudden departure of my son, the late king...... "He sniff and continue...... "You all know that five years ago, you all nominated me to be your king but then i gave the title to my son to rule in my place, today am still going to do that same thing.......... "

Shocked, Bianca knit her brows waiting impatiently for the king to be announced.....

"Meet your new king.... "Carlos said...

The crowd fixed their gaze on where he was pointing each waiting to see the new king....

Carlos swallowed, the crowd hail and screams force a smile on his lips..... "Meet your new king, My youngest son.... DILLAN.... "

Bianca heart sanked, almost bursting out of her chest....., she breathe heavily, her head still trying to registered what just happened...

With a big smile, Dillan walked in on royal wears....

"Let the gods bear witness to this day.. "Iroko said..... "Behold, a new king has come..... "

Buzo pick up the Kings sacred beads and wore them in Dillan hands...., then he carried the crown...... "By the power bestow on me by the gods and the memories of our forefathers as prime minister of this great kingdom.., i crown you, Dillan Adigwe...., Adigwe the 2nd as king of Akpatu..... "

Dillan bow down as he wore the crown in his head and the crowd shouted...

Iroko quickly hand him the staff of authority and Dillan raise it to the crowd.....

"All hail the king.... "Carlos shouted...

"All hail the king!!
"All hail the king!!
"All hail the king!!
"All hail the king!!
"All hail the king!!



********************
The secluded elders shook their head as they glance at one another, the crowd noise echoing in their ears...

"Akpatu, our great kingdom has been brought down to the level of worms, dragged down to the dust..... "Elder Utero said harshly

"The kingdom of the mighty, the biggest of all kingdoms, the envious kingdom has been ruined totally...."Elder Ojoba said........... "What can we do when we've been reduced to sand, little children are given the mantle to rule....., oh Akpatu, the great Akpatu, why have our mother land be brought such shame........ ?

"Akpatu, the land our great men and women fought for,the land that was built on the sweats of our brave fathers, the land of milk and total brightness has been brought to ruin..., our mother's hair have been shaved off, she has seen sorrows, torments...., how long shall we continue to dwell in this darkness, how long shall we ruled by the decisions taken by the evil men who has brought chaos and total destruction to us......, hear our cry old kings, who will come to our rescue........?









******************
Chief Joseph look around...,just then he began to follow the direction of the guards..., he needed to urinate and come back to the festivities......

He entered the corridor, no body was in sight, he quickly find his way to the toilet....

He sigh, when he saw one.., he went in without hesitation..

When he was done...., he opened the door to come out....

Just then a knife pierced into his stomach.....

He groan in pains as blood began to gush out of his stomach....

With pains, he raise his face up....... "You........ "He muttered with pants breathes and fell to his knees....., his hands on his stomach.., groaning and wincing in great pains.....

Taka scoffs....... "What did you think chief?,you thought i forgot what you did to me...."

Chief Joseph cough out blood as he try to hold Taka's shirt, groaning in pains...., blood rushing profusely from his stomach.....

Taka suck his teeth..... "You see chief, i was having second thoughts on killing you despite the fact that i pleaded with you before you flooged me with that belt....., but then i remember you're one of the chiefs that killed my friend's father......, haven't you read the Holy book..., he who kills by the sword dies by it..., though in your case you killed by the knife, so you'll die by the knife....... "Taka said moving behind him...

Chief Joseph groan miserably in pains...., his breathe slowly fading away....

"The belt you hit me with left a scar on my back always reminding me that you're still alive after all the terrible things you've done...... "he grunts and continue..... "You see chief, others may forgive and forget what you did to them....,But Taka never forgives, neither does he forget.... "

With those words, he slit his throat.....

Chief Joseph lifeless body fell to the floor..., blood flowing freely on the ground.......

"If you get to the afterlife, tell everyone there your sins have been rewarded..... "

Taka wipe a sweat from his brows, then he stepped over his body, over the blood....,no remorse, no feelings, no soul......, with rage in his eyes......he muttered...... "Idiot..... "
