Chapter 232: I need her back.

"Yes my friend, first I will want to apologize for disturbing you, please know that it is not in my character to do this, but I am just so desperate. Yes, I am so desperate, I just couldn't sleep, throughout the night I have been waiting for daybreak which literally almost took forever before it finally came, I even left my house around four Am. I literally waited for the brightening of the day. Yes, I couldn't help but think of her, Juliet, I spent the whole of yesterday hating myself, regretting why I actually sat there and watch her go, all because one mistake of mine materialized and came and ask her to leave my home. I shouldn't have let her go, yes, he is my mistake, I call that creature my mistake because that is what he is, if I hadn't made that senseless mistake if mine her wouldn't have been in the picture. Please I need your help, I want you to tell me where I can find her. I need her back in my life, I have lost her before, and I am so not losing her again."

So Mr. Matt said, he spoke with red eyes which appeared like a heavy sky about to rain.

"Hmm... But Matthew, do you not think you are looking for her in the wrong place? I believe you know her place."

Aunty Paula asked him looking very sympathetic. Normal aunty Paula would attack him with words, but she rather chose to be polite that day, probably because the man himself already look like someone who had been through a lot, his eyes kept exposing the fact that they never had a sip of sleep the night past. 

"Yeah my dear Paula, I have already gone there, I was there very early this morning but it seemed to go me that someone else already lived there, and ut wasn't like I just drove down to this place, I called her but she never picked up, look at my call register, I called her more than fifteen times before she finally switched off my phone. And to be sincere, I had the conviction that this could be where they are. Please u am begging, do not tell me that the man took them with him..."

Fake dad explained, he even stretched his phone over to aunty Paula to see his call register, as he explained his hand quakes like that of a drug addict who had no more access to his drugs. 

"Really? Did you give her fifteen missed calls this early? Don't you think it is too much? And could be sleeping, did it not occur to you that her phone might be on silent? And probably you have run down her battery."

Mr. Bright asked looking rather disappointing at desperate fake dad.

"My friend, I know that I am wrong in all my doings, but you can't blame me, I am so confused, I am desperate, I need her attention, I need to talk to her, she had suffered enough for my stupid mistakes, Throughout last night I was only thinking of all the misery that she must have been through. No, I have to fight for her, she indeed has nobody, but I will want to let her see that she have me."

Fake dad said.

"But for a fact, she had been through a lot, and it is all thanks to you, the birth of her troubles all started the night she got the news of your marriage, you killed her, that day you killed her, that was the day she met her trouble, she had been traveling and running around the county like a nomadic farmer. You know how she is, you know how fragile she is, you know how she can't withstand turbulence, yet you wholeheartedly sent the turbulence her way. Well, I can't judge you, it is nice that you have regained your senses, she is presently in a dilemma, and she needs someone who can stand by her side, else, she could lose it."

Aunty Paula said.

"I am here, I promise that I will be there for her till the end, please, all I need is for you to point to me where she is, even if it is in the depth of the sea, point to the sea, and I will swim it to her. She is my better half, I survived the last time I lost her, this time, I am not sure if I can survive again."

Fake dad said looking so serious. Aunty Paula gave him this probing look as he said this. But all the while, Mr. Bright seem to be lost in the conversation, everything was so going to the left part of his understanding.

"Wait please, can someone please speak English? Why do I feel like I am not understanding anything that is going on? Why is no one telling me anything in this house? Hmm? Talk to me honey, the first time I asked about the paternity of this son of Juliet Damian, you told me that his father was late. Later Mr. Matthew Ohakwe came here claiming to be his father, and you made me believe that he is the father for real, just the other day, this other man who truly looked like him came here and you also confirmed to me again that he is the real father, now you all say these things that actually makes no sense to me, are you guys making use of code words so that I won't understand you? Tell me Paula, or is my presence not needed here? Tell me, so I may leave you to your jargon."

So Mr. Bright said in annoyance, he was there, yet it was almost like she wasn't. All the discussions were all out of his understanding. For a fact the nice man had been in the dark for quite a while about me and min, well, I guess it was none of his business, but his family should have at least told him, he seemed like an understanding person, at least that is what I think of him
