SAKADINIA - Episode 7

*
‘Kiss you? I don’t understand’ Nelson was stunned by her
words.
‘You heard me darling, just come on, I know you’ve been
admiring me for a long time, just come and get it,are you
shy’? Rose flashed him a seductive smile and began to
pull at her buttons.
‘What are you doing’? he asked weakly, as her full b-----s
came into view, they were really supple and he knew he
wasn’t going to resist.
‘Something you’d like very much, come closer’ she
beckoned to him and he obeyed like a little child.
She kissed him deeply and led his hands to her bra, she
loved the taste of his mouth, she hadn’t had any other
man apart from her father, this was the first time she was
kissing another man, and to be honest, it felt better.
‘Stop, are you sure about this’? Nelson released her from
his grasp.
‘Yes, I like you already’ she stared into his brown eyes.
‘Alright’ Nelson nodded, praying Helen never got to know
about his affair with Rose.
Minutes later, when they both lay on the bed, panting like
antelopes that had gone racing, his phone rang and he
picked it up.
It was Helen, his heart froze, why was she calling? He
didn’t want Rose to suspect him and her mum, so he
decided to ignore it.
‘Who’s that? You have a girlfriend’? Rose winked and
turned to face him.
‘No’ Nelson smiled. She was really beautiful he noticed,
she was a younger version of her mother.
‘Let me see your phone’ she dragged the phone from him
before he could protest.
‘I can explain…’Nelson licked his lips .
‘Oh, mum? Actually she must be waiting for you in the
garden’ Rose stood up and got into her dress.
‘Waiting for me’? Nelson raised his brows.
‘Sure, she needs you to take her somewhere, last I
checked you’re still the driver’ she stormed out of his
room.
Nelson stared after her pondering on her last words, he
suddenly felt humiliated, they just had s-x, yet she still
saw him as her mother’s servant.
He paused and picked his phone, he’d received a
message from the blogger who’d published the news
concerning the alleged affair of Pastor Ita and his
supposed girlfriend, how this blogger got his number, he
didn’t know.
HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT MY PROPOSAL? WHAT’S
YOUR FEEDBACK?
***
He was glued to his chair for some minutes, the strange
call he’d received had unsettled him,he needed to do
something about it.
‘I know what you’re doing, it makes me sick and I’m
going to tell’ the words echoed in his brain.
‘I hope not’ the pastor sighed, he hoped no one was
trying to blackmail him.
‘Goodmorning man of God’ Helen sauntered into the
room, wondering why it had taken Nelson ages to get
himself ready.
‘Morning Helen’ the preacher replied, he had to act
normal, he couldn’t let his wife know about the caller,
that line of thought scared him.
What if the caller knew about his secret affair with Rose?
He couldn’t tell his wife, he couldn’t risk her finding out
about his affair with his own biological daughter.
‘You don’t look well’ Helen observed him from her mirror.
Her husband was usually very cheerful in the mornings,
but from the grim expression on his face, everything
wasn’t alright.
‘I am fine, I just had a revelation from the lord, it’s
troubling me’ he lied.
‘What revelation? Please share it with me’ she was
concerned about his wellbieng, though she had not given
up on finding his secret lover, she was sure he had one.
‘Impending doom, I must go to church today and organize
a fast within the week’ he rose to his feet.
‘That would be nice’ Helen replied and quickly fetched her
buzzing phone.
‘What’s all these’? Helen smirked as she clicked on the
image of her husband pecking a girl whose facial features
were blurred.
‘What’s that’? Pastor It asked curiously.
‘Mark said I shouldn’t believe it, he said I could trust you’
Helen sighed. Someone that had access to her number
must have sent her the photo of her husband’s alleged
affair with an unknown woman.
‘This isn’t true,it’s photoshopped, a bit to tarnish my
image, please don’t believe this’ the Pastor was afraid,
someone must have seen them from the hotel. He had
been in the car, kissing his own daughter, but he couldn’t
tell Helen that, as he’d told her he’d been heading for a
meeting.
‘Please be honest with me, I really want to trust you’
Helen stared deeply into his eyes. She’d already made
her decision to dump Nelson and stick with her husband.
‘I am honest dear’ He replied and pecked her forehead.
***
The house was quiet, Rose was in her room, Helen and
the Pastor had gone out and I was left alone in the
kitchen. The house was a huge one, I noticed that while
cleaning, but I enjoyed every bit of it, I had been in the
village for years doing nothing, I loved working.
‘Don’t you ever rest’? Mark strolled into the kitchen, this
was the second time I’d seen him since he had that
argument with his mother.
‘I…I uhmmm, I just want to make sure everything is in
place’ I replied.
‘No, you have to rest, you’ve been working all day, just
take a break, let us go to the garden’ he walked towards
me and took the kitchen gloves off my fingers.
‘Oh no Mark, this isn’t a good idea’ I objected.
‘I am not asking for your permission’ he smiled and
forced me outside.
‘It’s really beautiful here, so many flowers, your mum
plants well’ I smiled as we took a seat close to the yellow
bells.
‘She didn’t plant them, Grace did’ he quickly corrected.
‘Oh, nice, tell me about this your Grace’ I was curious and
confused, I wondered if it was right for me to show him
the note I’d found in her room.
‘I’ll tell you everything once I’m done with this call’ Mark
rose to his feet.
‘What? Mum where are you guys’? he asked.
From the look on his face, something bad must have
happened, I prayed silently and hoped no one had died.
‘They just had an accident, dad is seriously injured’ Mark
rushed into the house, leaving me in a garden of flowers.
I don’t know why, roses weren’t my favorite flowers, but I
was drawn to the pink roses in Madam Helen’s garden, I
walked towards them and decided to pluck one for
myself.
‘Hello beauties’ I inhaled the deep rosy scent, as I
opened my eyes, I found a pearly necklace on the floor
close to me, no one was looking so I carried it,it was too
beautiful to be left there.
‘Where did you get that’? Mark asked. I could feel anger
in his voice and I froze, what if he thought me a thief?
Did it belong to him?
‘I just found it here, beneath the roses’ I replied.
‘It belonged to Grace’ he replied.
