buried under the rocks of lies (episode 10)


i was taken to the hospital and checked and the doctor told the police officers that i was fine, but was still in shock, it was then that i noticed that i did not say anything at all ever since i got rescued, bidemi came in to see me after the officers left my room and immediately she saw me she hugged me tightly
bidemi: i am so glad that you are okay, we were all scared
me: but i am fine
bidemi: why did you leave without informing me, you know Daniel could have gotten away with what he wanted to do
me: i am so sorry bidemi but i had too, David’s life was in danger, he wanted to kill him and i could not let that happen
bidemi: i understand at least we should be grateful to God (she said as she sat beside my bed) we wouldn’t have if not for Sharon, she was in the bathroom and she overheard all your conversation (wow i didn’t even know that i wasn’t alone but i am still glad anyway that someone heard me) she immediately called me and told me everything and i texted David that his life was in danger explain to him that there was a man aiming to shot him in the bar that he was, i also told him that Daniel is bent on continuing the blackmail but that this time around it was with his life
me: how is David? (i asked as i remember the video and everything)
bidemi: David is fine, he was the one that informed the police. (when she was speaking two men came in, one a police officer and the other was not in uniform)
man: miss tumininu my name is detective ogunshade and this is inspector Ezekiel, we are here to ask you a few questions concerning the incident.
me: OK i am ready
detective: can your friend please excuse us
bidemi: of course i i will step outside (she then left)
detective: we have Daniel in our custody but we need to find his other accomplice the one who gave him information about your past, do you have anyone who you think might have the motive to want to reveal your past to David.
me: (i thought for a while) i don’t think that anyone will do that to me in Lagos, no one knew my past here.
detective: it doesn’t matter as the person might have moved from where you were before, so think very well
me: the only people i knew where mama d, her girls and her son john (i said and the detective whispered something to the inspector who nodded and mentioned john)
detective: we will get mama d and the girls and her son for interrogation. thank you for your cooperation
inspector: but miss tumi did you know that what you did back there was very risky
me: yes i knew
inspector: what if your friend wasn’t in the bathroom, we would not have known where you were going too and why
me: wait (i said as i looked at them, they were speaking as if they had already been watching me) that means you have all been watching me
inspector: yes we were watching you under the orders of Mr David, who told us that you were being blackmailed
me: i don’t get it but how did he do that he was very angry with me
inspector: being angry did not mean that he has stopped protecting you, he abides by the law in this country and he know how much danger that a person in blackmail can face, so he informed us immediately you told him, and we moved in position
me: so David brought you all
inspector: yes! but we have to also thank you for delaying Mr Daniel’s man from shooting David, because he was not protected at that time but do not do so next time because it is very risky anyway we managed to arrest the man but we need to get the person who gave Daniel all your information
me: please do so
inspector: please excuse us miss tumininu
me: you are excused (they both left and i did not know but i felt in me that David still cared for me because despite all that i kept from him, he never played with my security and always had my back, but i am still not sure off is if he will still want to love me and forgive me after finding out the kind of b---h that i am)

The police interrogated Daniel and after so much torture he told them that John was behind the truth of my past, I stayed in the hospital for one more day before I got discharged, I returned back to my hostel, I did not hear anything from him and I decided not to call him or see him in other to give him time, if we were really in love with each other and we were destined to be together then definitely he will forgive me and we will get back together, few days after I was discharged from the hospital I got a call from the police station telling me that John wanted to have a word with me, because their court day was the following week,I left for the station with Biden and Sharon but I was led alone to the visitors room, John was brought out and even on seeing him was I disgusted, and I will never forget what he did to me, I wouldn’t have come here if not because my friends persuaded me to hear him out anyway make I hear what he want to say, he sat down opposite me and I saw that he was handcuffed but I did not feel any pity for him.
John: mini I wanted to tell you something that you have been wanting to know
Me: go ahead I don’t have the whole Day
John: I know that you have always hated me and I know the reason why you do and even if I plea for forgiveness, I know you wouldn’t forgive
Me: say whatever you wanna say
John: it’s about your parents (he said as I looked at him, how many years have I wanted to hear about my parents but never knew anything about them, I have even learn to accept my fate)
Me: I don't have any parent
John: you do
Me: then where are they and why did they abandon me
John: they did not abandon you as you were stolen from your parents when you were still a toddler
Me: what (I exclaimed with my mouth wide open in shock) I was stolen
John: more like you were taken
Me: by who
John: my father and his friend took you from your parents when you were just eight months old, I don’t know about the whole story, all I know is that my dad brought you when I was six and gave you to my mother
Me: (I was shocked and stumped on my seat)
Then who knows about it
John: my mother mama d know everything
Me: (I stood up) where is she
John: the brothel was raided by the police and everyone were arrested including her, she Is in the female prison
Me: (I turned to go)
John: please mini forgive me (he said but I just hissed and walked out, intended to find mama d and make her tell me all about my parents, I have to find them at all cost)
