Hi, guys. How was your week? Thank you for your beautiful comments and motivation. I probably haven't told you this in a while but you guys are amazeballs!! So here's the sitch. I won't be updating Oceans of Secrets till the end of next week. Why? Here's why. Frankly, a certain amount of research goes into any writing. So majority of the following episodes will take place in prison. And I for one am not familiar with the Nigerian prison setting. I don't want to write the work based on foreign prison systems I've seen in movies. That's the reason why the updates will be postponed till next week. Kindly bare with me. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Well, this life you just gave to expect the unexpected... I really want Mayowa and Roselle to get back together...she messed up real good, but he should forgive her. Also, i want Rosanna and Alisdare back together. Rosanna can't be with Ose, their personality don't match. Dele should also stick to Seyifunmi. MJ I know...who is Gabriel please?? Who is using who??

Hola mi amors I'm not quite sure if that's correct but all join. How have you all been? I'm at home trying to write and catch up on my series and telenovelas. Please I recommend listening to "A que no me dejas" for those of us who love Spanish. While listening to it, read the translation of the lyrics. My dears, I am swooning here. If you can, try to watch the telenovela on Eva+. It's really good. Now my purpose of coming here today. No, I'm not postponing updating. Latest by Friday, update will drop or sooner than that. As the spirit leads. So to my purpose. As some of you might have figured out, I have practically finished the Ocean of Secrets trilogy in my head. So, I don't know what spirit entered me yesterday but I decided to try a spin-off, an Ocean of Secrets novella (whoop whoop or not) It's practically about Tóminí's love life. Don't worry I won't begin posting it till I'm done with the trilogy. Now, to hit the nail on the head(don't mind me I just want to make this announcement as long as possible.), I went back to the drawing board and a new idea hit me. So I had to modify an update. I think post no 870 or thereabout. It's the scene where the detective revealed the autopsy showed traces of aconite in Chris's blood. For those who don't want to go back. Basically, i removed aconite and replaced it with toxins and rather than have Tinu order it online, it was reduced to be from the food he last ate which Tinu cooked. Thank you for reading my announcement. I love you guys. If you love the idea of the spin-off, please let me know. 4 Likes |

✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴✴ Tinu sat on the field that was more sand than grass, playing with a stalk of Bahama grass and hoping the pain reliever would start its job soon. She tried to straighten her back but the sharp pain that shot through her spine warned her not to. She wondered why her cellmates hated her. They beat her up and took the fruits and snacks Ajiri had given her. At least, they left her with her supplements. A sigh escaped her lips. If only they could start the goddamn trial. At least she’d know her fate. Would she ever hold her children in her arms and kiss them again? Would she ever listen to Temi and Tóminí argue over which tv station they would watch? Would she ever see Chris smile with his cute one sided dimple? Would they still love her the way they used to? Would she still be their mummy? She felt her baby kick and she gasped in joy. Her Regina was ok. She rubbed her belly and the baby kicked again. “Regina.”, she cooed and the baby kicked again and she laughed in ecstasy. She hadn’t been more happy in a long time. “You look happy.”, Ireti said as she sat beside her. “Well, my baby kicked for the first time”, Tinu said smiling. “Awwwn.”, Ireti beamed. “Ireti, thank you for the other day.”, Tinu said. “Its nothing. I’ve been the new inmate before. It gets better eventually.”, Ireti said. “Really? I doubt it. It’s like my very existence irritates them.”, Tinu said. “Well..” “Well, what?” “Well, you’re rich. You have it easy. I mean you came in two weeks ago and you already have visitors. Some of us haven't seen our loved ones in years because we can’t afford the toll. I haven’t seen my sisters in months. They can’t afford to pay the guards and I can’t waste the money I make here on visiting when I have to think of taking care of myself. Hadiza has three children outside. She hasn’t seen them in six years. I think her last born is twelve now. Aliya steals so she can see her baby. You came in here and you’ve been visited six times. Of course, they are envious and angry.” “And you’re not?”, Tinu said raising an eyebrow. “Look, if you don’t want to hear the bitter truth don’t ask.”, Ireti put in. “What are you here for?”, Tinu asked. “I tried my hand at prostitution for the first time. The brothel I was in was raided. I’ve been here since because my family could not afford bail.”, she said. “That’s… i..” “Don’t feel pity for me. I made the choice. I have to live with the consequences. Anyway, the evangelism team are here. So, if you probably want some sort of spiritual comfort, you might want to come inside.”, Ireti announced as she stood. “I’ll pass. Thank you.” “Ok.”, Ireti said and left. Tinu sat there and returned her attention to her forlorn stalk of weed. She had been so oblivious and crass. She thought her cellmates didn’twant visitors or had no family. Who wouldn’t want to be visited in this hellhole? They must have seen her frequent visits as her flaunting her wealth. She could understand where they were coming from. “Hi.”, a cheery voice greeted. Tinu looked up and saw a lady smiling like some cartoon Character. Her perfect white teeth were on display and the apples of her rounds cheeks were gleaming in the sunlight. She wondered if her cheeks and jaws didn’t hurt from smiling so wide. She read the inscription on the woman’s tee-shirt and rolled her eyes. Did Jesus really love everyone? He might but he definitely loved some more than the others. “May I join you?”, the lady’s sweet voice said. Tinu looked at her form fitting dark blue jeans. “Are you sure you want to get those dirty?”, Tinu asked cynically. “Watch me.”, the lady said and sat on the Sandy grass cross-legged. “I’m Felicia. You are?”, the lady said smiling and extended her hand. Tinu looked at her and wondered if she would still be so cheery if she slapped her. “Tinu”, she said and shook the extended hand rudely. “Its nice to meet you…” “Really? Is it? Or is that what your evangelism guide tells you to say?”, Tinu commented snidely. “Would you believe me if I said yes?”, Felicia asked. “No. I would call you a liar and a hypocrite. I know your type.”, Tinu said. “Ok then. Educate me. What is my type?”, Felicia said in amusement. “You just shook my hand when all you really want to do is wipe your hands and sanitize them. I’m in prison hence a sinner. I’m beneath you but I need saving and that’s why you’re here. You righteous perfect girl with me the dirty sinner.”, Tinu said. “I’m far from perfect.” “What else would you say?” “I really am. I disobeyed my father and married the man he told me expressly not to marry. I didn’t only just marry him, I hired actors to pose as my family.”, Felicia said laughing. “Is that supposed to make me believe your imperfection?”, Tinu asked. “Maybe. My husband used to hit me. He used to rape me. I held a knife to his heart once. I ran away from him and I abandoned my son. But that’s all a thing of the past. We’re happy now.”, Felicia said. “That just buttresses what I thought. Your Jesus loves some more than the rest of us.”, Tinu said and stood. “You have a beautiful smile and I’m glad Jesus chose to fix your problems. He works for you. But He’s stood by and let every calamity that has ever happened to me befall me. He’s never really loved me and I’m not drinking that Kool aid. You should look for someone else in need of spiritual comfort. All I need is a trial date.”, Tinu said and walked away. Chapter 21 Seyifunmi watched Dele pack his clothes out of his wardrobe and into his suitcase mumbling under his breath. Ever since he returned from his trip to Abuja something had been on his mind, something he chose to mumble to himself rather than talk to her. She looked down at her laptop and continued typing. She wouldn’t nag him about it. If he wanted to talk to her, he would. His phone lit up and vibrated beside her. She looked at the caller ID and saw a Mr. Abu(Lawyer). “Mr. Abu is calling.”, she said and handed him the phone. He mumbled a thank you and picked the call. “Good evening sir…How did the application go?.... Look, I’m paying you because I want custody of my children… You told me an ex parte application would work….What do you mean by it expedited the trial?.... She wants to see me? Fine, I’ll be in Abuja first thing tomorrow morning. I am not giving up the rights to my children again…. Thank you. I’ll see you in court.”, Dele said and hung up. He sighed and sat on the bed. Seyifunmi took off her glasses and put her laptop on the bedside table. She crawled to meet him on the other side of the bed and wrapped her arms around him. He smiled and held her arms. “Do you want to talk?”, she asked and kissed his cheek. “Its complicated.”, he answered. “I write programmes and codes for a living. I think I can try to understand it.”, she said. “I want custody of my children by hook or by crook. I think I’m going by crook.”, he summarized. “You aren’t kidnapping them, are you?”, she asked. “Tinu wants them to stay with a friend of hers and I filed for an ex parte application that they be given to me.”, he explained. “You went behind her back.”, Seyifunmi simplified. “I want my children.”, he said. “Dele, so long as you are not kidnapping them then I support you. You’re their father. They should be with you. Not her in-laws or her friend.”, she said. He held her arms and turned to kiss her. 6 Likes |
