Wrong Womb - Episode 11


 

I supervised the people that decorated the large hall we were going to use for the launching party that evening.
Rosa James held Raymond's hand possessively as they walked around the compound.
One of my builders was calling me.
I connected the line. "What's the update?".
"The roofing will start next week Monday".
"How far with the rooms?"
"We still have four more rooms to complete in few days".
"The thirty rooms will be totally complete in few days time?"
"Yes".
"I will check you up this evening then". I disconnected the line and faced the decorators.
I checked my time.
It was already three o'clock and the party was to start at exactly five o'clock. "Hurry up guys!". I walked to take a seat. I was very tired.
My phone rang. It was Nelson.
I blocked his line immediately and when I looked up, Rosa James had already entered the hall.
She gave me that devilish grin and walked to me. "Hi Victory! I heard your first love bought you a brand new hatchback ride and you turned down the beautiful offer".
I forced a smile. "When it is time, I will get the brand new car of my choice".
"You are not done with Nelson. You guys still love each other".
"If love was the only criteria for getting married, how will marriages last? You need a man that will value you. If he does this, he will respect you and give you a happy home".
She cleared her throat. "I will have a perfect home with my fiance, right?".
"There is nothing like a perfect home. Misunderstandings will definitely happen and trying days will definitely happen, but only the man that values you will definitely stay".
She fumed at me. "Raymond values me. You know that, right?".
"Do you value him? Or you just possess him like one of your toys? If you value someone, you will respect them and will stop fooling yourself, messing around".
She glared at me. "I have no idea of what you are talking about".
I shrugged.
"I will get married to Raymond Donald no matter your manipulations!". She walked out of the hall.
I followed her.
She met with Regina Donald who was already close to the hall.
"Make Victory Charles resign, mother!!!". She fired at the woman.
"Why? What did she say again?".
"She said that she will make sure she gets Raymond at all cost". She lied.
I walked into their midst. "I didn't say that! Don't pay attention to the liar".
Rosa fumed at me. "Why are you still in Bower bound then?".
"How many people will leave a six hundred thousand naira job? I need the money, that is the reason I am still here". I only needed three months before I will resign from Bower bound after I have gained full ground in my business.
Regina chuckled. "Victory is not up to stealing a man from you, you know that right?"
"I know that! But you know women with their ways".
"Do you know how much Raymond regrets that he deluded himself so much to touch someone this low?".
I was already tired of standing. I had to sit down. I really had to sit down.
Regina held my hand. "I have a long list I want you to go through and there is a flash drive. The list will contain the benefits of our new product".
Raymond appeared out of the blue and held my other hand. "Can I talk to Victory? I need to talk to her urgently".
Regina released me.
We walked down to Raymond's car.
He helped me into the backseat and sat at the driver's seat.
How on earth did he know that I was completely stressed out?
"You are pregnant, Victory. I just wanted to remind you that".
I nodded thoughtfully. "Do you have water?".
He gave me a pack of food and water.
"Thanks". I whispered and sat up to eat.
"I knew you were almost fainting right there". He said worriedly.
"You are my saving grace". I ate the food.
He sighed. "About the stress I put you through at the beginning. I am sorry for trying to sack you and making you almost abort our baby".
"Why did you change your mind all of a sudden?".
"That is the same question I wanted to ask you. Why did your ambition drop all of a sudden?".
I shrugged as I chewed one of the turkeys in the plate. "I just realized reality, that's all. I realized that I didn't want to loose everything and I had to keep the people I love".
He sighed bitterly. "What you told Nelson yesterday, did you really mean it?".
"What's that?".
"The fact that you still love him".
"Can we talk about something else?".
"How do you know that you love someone?"
"You know you love someone because your heart feels so happy when you are around that person and you don't need a reason to be with that person, you accept the person for whom the person is,you don't expect anything in return from that person, you value the person".
"Is that how you feel towards Nelson?".
"Why are you so concerned about me and Nelson?".
"I am just very worried about you, that is all".
I nodded and smiled to myself. "Don't tell me you like me".
He turned on the stereo. "I think you need a song to calm your spirit so that you will stop spouting nonsense".
After relaxing in the car for ten minutes, I walked back into the hall.
The stage had already been set.
The projector too.
My phone rang. It was Grace Craig.
I connected. "Hello, madame".
"I just parked at the parking lot right now".
"You came for the party?".
"I have to cover the event as the journalist that I am".
"Hope you bought shortbread for me?".
"Yes. I bought strawberry hollandia. I didn't buy the milk flavor because of the way you vomited the last one I bought".

"I love you so much honey! Come in, I am inside!".
Immediately I ended the call, and people started coming in.
Rosa James walked to me. "What did you and Raymond discuss with each other for twenty minutes?".
"Sixteen minutes you mean?".
"What the hell is the difference huh? Tell me!!!".

"Stop shouting at me and respect yourself! People are already trooping in as you can see".
"You have gained morale because you feel you have my fiance wrapped around your fingers".
"Stop being threatened by another woman and protect your relationship yourself". I walked to welcome the people.
After everyone had settled down, I walked to the stage and addressed the people about the benefits of Bower-bound types of furniture.
A lot of people requested wardrobes and I recorded the sales.
Regina Donald joined me at the stage and gave the audience a mock bow. "We will like to give you guys a short video of what Bower bound furniture is like". She urged the engineers as they connected the flashdrive to the projector".

Instead of the types of furniture to be displayed on the screen, what was displaying on the screen was Rosa James sex tape with her director, Paul Kings.
