too’
‘alright take good care of yourself for me okay?’
‘i will grandma, do come as promised alright?’
‘i will grandma, do come as promised alright?’
‘i will granddaughter, bye’
‘bye grandma, i love you’
‘i love you too my dear’
Maria hung up excitedly. Her father had been
working his butts out recently. She had been
lonely, very lonely. She couldnt wait to tell her dad
about grandma’s visit.


How Tony found himself in a drinking bar, he
couldnt tell. He just knew that instead of driving
home, he drove to a bar clopse to his company.
He ordered for a bottle of black label and settled
down to drink, to drink away his sorrows. To forget
a moment about Naomi and take good care of his
daughter, Maria. He thought working very hard was
going to make him forget about Naomi for awhile.
Oh Naomi! How could she leave him like that. She
was his world, his beloved. He had loved her with
all his heart and with all his soul. They planned a
very bright future for their daughter Maria and for
their unborn child. They already thought of names
they would give the baby if it turns out to be a boy
or a girl. Naomi had been so happy when she
found out she was going to be a mother again. But
what killed Naomi and the baby knew.
According to the doctors, she and the baby were in
good health. It must have been a spiritual issue.
Someone who didnt want him and his daughter to
be happy


Before he knew, he had already finished a bottle of
black label and ordered for a bottle of hennesy.
Naomi had been a good wife and a good mother.
She had loved and taken good care of him and
Maria. Theirs was an arranged marriage. They had
both been forced into the marriage, they had
stayed aloof from one another.
Despite the fact that she wasnt happy with the
marriage, she didnt stop caring for her husbamd,
fifteen months after the marriage, they began to
grow closer and fond of each other until they
realised they had both fallen in love with each
other.


Kenneth sat in front of Tony, he had been watching
him for awhile. Tony had been drinking for hours
now. He had drank a bottle of hennesy, vodka and
now he was taking Jack Daniels, he was dead
drunk. His phone rang but Tony ignored it. Kenneth
took his phone and the caller was Maria. She had
been worried of her dad’s whereabout.
As Tony was about to take another glass of JD,
Kenneth snatched the glass from him.
‘take hold of yourself, whats all these combination
of drinks? Do you want to kill yourself?’ he asked.
Tony looked at him foolishly. Tony was drunk, very
drunk. He smiled.
‘give me my drink Kenneth. Go and bring Naomi to
me’ he said and Kenneth scoffed.
