Must Read: Love and Revenge - Season 2 - Episode 81

☆☆

Jovita jolted out of her thoughts as Anabel and Emmy walked in. She quickly wiped away the tears gathered in her eyes, she didnt want her daughter to see her that way.
‘mum….’ Ann called ‘you are hiding something frm me…this isnt the first time i’m seeing u cry…whats eating u up?’
‘no…nothing…Emmy, how are u?’ Jovita spread her arms and Emmy ran into it.

‘is there something wrong aunty?’ Emmy asked innocently.

Jovita smiled ‘no baby…how was ur first day at school today?’
‘i wont tell u unless you tell aunty Annabel and i whats making u cry’ She folded her arms and pouted.

Jovita smiled even broader ‘there’s nothing wrong my darling princess, really…i was slicing onions and all of a sudden i started crying…cant you see i’m all smiley?’

‘if Emmy’s going to believe that story of urs then i wont….’ Ann cut in ‘because u were sobbing loudly, isnt that so Emmy?’
‘right aunty’ Emmy nodded.
‘now the both of u are ganging up against me…too bad! I have no one to support me’ Jovita pouted ‘so not fair!’

Emmy looked at Ann and giggled throwing herself on Jovita’s body, she pecked her cheeks and whispered ‘when aunty Anabel leaves the house, i’m going to tell you everything that happened in school today but its going to be a secret between u and i okay?’

Jovita laughed. Emmy could make anyone no matter the amount of grief….laugh.
Emmy hugged Ann and bolted out of the sitting room. She knew it was adults talk and had to leave them alone.

Ann sighed, her arms akimbo ‘i think its time u start stating the reason for ur unlimited tears nowadays because yesterday i saw u crying on the kitchen counter and i purposedly left you alone because i felt you needed time alone but this time, i will not leave u alone because something is eating deep into you. Whats it mother?’

‘its nothing really…just a moment of weakness’

‘just a moment of weakness indeed! Mummy, who do you think you are fooling? Something is wrong, something is terrible wrong and i hope its not what i’m thinking because i notice everytime i mention anything about Lex, u become still and i also cant help but notice how Lex has been asking of you everytime he calls since the day he “took” u out. You are a pastor’s wife so i believe u act in a pastor’swifely way’
‘what?! Ann, are u implying i…i…’
‘i’m not implying anything! I’m just airing out my thought because its really suspicious and i believe you are too matured and godly to do that kind of thing…i want to believe so’

‘Ann i’m disappointed in u!’ Jovita sprung on her feet angrily ‘i’m disappointed that you could actually think so lowly of me? How dare u?’
‘this doesnt call for raising of voices because i just dont understand whats going on between u and Lex…while he always has this mischievious look whenever he asks about you, you stiffen when i talk about him. There’s something going on and i’m going to find out, it will be better u tell me now because if i find out, i will never forgive u and the whole world will hear of it’
‘Annabel!’
‘i am just airing out my mind like i’ve said before…i wont share Lex with anybody, not even u mum’

‘how can u say i’m sleeping with Lex? How could u? Someone old enough to be my son? My daughter’s fiance? With my reputation and religious beliefs?’ She couldnt believe it as a tear ran down her cheek.

‘i didnt say so. I didnt say you were sleeping with Lex’
‘but thats what u meant!’
‘i’m just saying i’m not going to take it mum! I dont know whatever u and Lex share but i beg you to cut it off immediately’
‘dont let me lay a curse on u Annabel because it will follow you for the rest of ur life!’

‘ur words dont scare me mother!’
‘may your children treat you the same way u treat me and may they say the exact words u are saying to me right now to u’
‘only if i go around frolicking with their fiances!’

‘SHUT UP!’ Jovita screamed so loudly little Emmy practically ran downstairs ‘i hate u! I hate u!’ More and more tears ran down her cheeks and she was already sobbing.
‘i dont care if you hate me. Hate me as much as you want mother, i dont care…this is my last warning, stay away from Lex because i certainly wont share him with anyone, not even u!’ She hissed and walked out.
