"Heyy… don’t be like this, I was
preparing something for you

"Did I say am hungry? She

"Even though you are not
hungry I want you to eat
something, your condition
demands you eat every seconds”
Ken said.
"So I will get fat and you will
have the free time to ran
around with other girls."
"Why? What happen?, you are

"What the hell are you talking

"I don’t know, but I know that

days a week is way too much ken."
"Look, I don’t know what ever

"Hello Ken," Victoria pick up the
call happily.
"Listen to me you idiot, stop

"And who is that? Gina ask him.
"I don’t know, maybe it will be

"Hmmm."
"Hello ken, have been calling

"Why, why are you calling me?
Don’t you know I will be with my
wife by that time?"
"Why are you acting as if am

myself because of you."
"Then don’t humble yourself

"Are you threating me? Victoria
ask ken.
"You can take it any how you

"Fine, let’s play then"
"What? What do you mean

"You can do whatever you want,

anything."
" Good, you will hear from me.
She hang-up the phone.
"Yes, yes, I have done it, she
won’t disturb us again", ken
rejoice over his victory.
He want home early that day
and was all smiling.
"What is making you happy
today?" Gina ask him.
"Am so happy to be your husband"
he said kissing her all over.
"Hmm, this your joy is
something else oo."
"Yea, is just for me and you
my love, let’s just be happy for
the rest of our life."
Gina was just smiling and
looking at ken.
Mr. Jackson received a letter
from Miss Victoria’s lawyer
filing for a divorce and asking
to be paid a damage fee of
900-million in compensation
for his client.
"What is this? Mr. Jackson
throw the papers at ken’s face."
"What is what dad?" He bends
down to pick the papers, open
them and start reading them.
"Victoria files for a divorce?
Then let’s give it to her, ken said
not knowing the implication of
what he is saying.
"Do you ever have the slightest
idea of what you are saying?"
"No, I don’t so why don’t you
explain to me why you want me
to marry this girl at all cost."
"That boy is your son, you can’t
tell me you have not notice the
resembles."
"Fine, I have notice everything
but still I don’t want to marry her,
I love my wife and that is final,
and for God’s sakes there is
money just give it to her and
let’s move on. He said and
make to go.
"Stop right there ken, you, you
will marry Victoria"
"Or what?" Ken ask his father,
you can’t just force someone
at me just like that, each time
am with that girl, is as if am going
to die the next minute."
"Really?" Mr. Jackson ask ken.
"Yes father."
"You can go let me see what
I can do."
900 million is no child’s play,
Mr. Jackson told victoria, I
promise to make this right."
"No, you have no time to make
things right, you promise that I
will marry ken, but all ken do is
reject me for that Gina girl."
"Just give me more time to
convince him."
"No Mr. Jackson, you have just
one option and that is to give me
the money or everyone will hear
your secrete." Victoria foam with
anger.
"The money you are asking is
not available."
"Hahahaha, and you expect
me to believe that? You are the
most richest man in this part
of the world and you are telling
me you don’t have just 900 million?"
"I may be the most richest man
you know, but that may not totally
be true, sometimes with are
the most poorest people you
can think of."
"I don’t get you, want are you
talking about?. Victoria ask.
"You see my dear, people see
and rate us by the house we
live, by the cloths we wear, by
the car we drive, and by so
many things they see with their
eyes but in real sense we are
suffering too just like every other
people, there are times we
don’t have money in our account
but we don’t show it so people
think that we always have money
every seconds of the day."
"I still don’t understand what
you are talking about and if
you don’t give me that money
by next week, all your family
members will know the kind of
person that you are?. She said
and walk away.
She keep sending threat
messages to ken’s phone, but
ken keep deleting then without
replying.
"This time I will not allow anyone
to threating me into doing things,
if my father don’t like me then is
fine, am not going to sake his
approval anymore, am done
wanting him to love me. No one
is going to force me to marry
two wives, am ok with just Gina,
she makes me happy, she
makes me complete, she
doesn’t judge me like others,
she accepts me just the way
I am."
"Mr. Jackson send for ken,
asking him to see him in his
office."
"Yes, you sent for me ken said
when he got to his father’s
office ready to take any
thing because he will no
longer take anything that
anyone impose on him
anymore.
"Sit down," he said without
looking at his face.
"Ken sat down waiting to hear
the worst about himself
because that is what his father
always do when it comes to
him, to him, he is the black
sheep of the family, he never
do anything right and he knows
it, all he has ever done was
bring shame to his father,
and here he is again facing
his father with another stupid
mistake of his."
"Yes dad am here, but before
you say anything I want to
say am sorry…
"No stop, don’t say another
word, do you have time?"
"What? Time? Yes I do," ken said.
"I will like to take you
somewhere" Mr. Jackson said
and raise his face to look at ken.
"Ok, I have time sir."
"Good get ready to go on
a ride with me."
"Ok sir, let me go and take
my things."
Mr. Jackson only nodes his head.
"My father taking me on a ride?
Wow. That is new, I hope am
not going to regret what is
coming? But anyways, am
prepared for anything, his
face is not looking bright, he
must have be very disappointed
in me, and it’s all victoria’s fault,
must she marry me?"
"Ken, your father ask me you
call you the secretary said
interrupting kens thoughts.
