My Life - S01 E22 (Story Episode)

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 22

STEVE'S POV :

I felt my whole world put on a hold — How could Michelle do this — Allowing envy to rule over her heart — no this is unforgivable, My parents died because of some stupid envy and competition they knew nothing of — they were innocent, why has God decided to let the evil intentions of the wicked ones prevail ? I felt like crying but no tears came out — my whole body was lifeless but how I could still stand on my feet was a mystery.. Michelle — I’ll get back at you, you can’t get away with this one …

MICHELLE’S POV :

I was speechless, hurt, confused and shattered — I felt my heart trying to pull out from my ribs, i was finding it difficult to breathe, How did Stanley get a hold of that ? When did I even make such a statement — I’ve been such a fool — beaten at my own game; Stanley and Mr. |barley had betrayed me – not only did they kill the family of the man I love, they also made look like an enemy before him — pulling every suspicion from them — how do I begin to explain considering the fact that Mr. Barley walks for me — Stanley really did his math and I was blinded by my love for him — He used my feelings for him against me…

**************************************************

STEVE : Michelle, my parents were innocent — they were not a part of this competition ?

MICHELLE : No, Steve — I dint kill your parents, I can’t do that — believe me

NIFE : Oh just shut up, you lying b---h — you still have the guts to lie, huh ?

MICHELLE : (yells at Nife ) Oh just shut up ! I’m not a b---h and I can’t remember you being Steve’s guardian as well as his —

STEVE : (Interrupts her) Michelle, does Mr. barley work for you ?

MICHELLE : (bites her lips) yes, he does — he’s part of my security team in my company but I —

STEVE : (nods his head ) its okay, Michelle — thank you for saying the truth

MICHELLE : (walks to him) Steve, believe me — I dint kill your parents — I can’t do that … not me

STEVE : ( shouts ) then who did ? (cries) who did, Michelle ? who?! (pushes her away) I’m sorry stay away from me, Michelle — the next time I set my eyes on you we are enemies .. (the security men leads him away )

MR. POPOV : Wahala ! Wahala !! WHAT A BOMBSHELL ?! (walks out )

PRINCIPAL : I can’t believe this .. (walks away )

NIFE : (shakes her head) Michelle, I hate you ..( walks out )

MICHELLE walks up to STANLEY : you bastard !!! framing me up huh ? you cant win — not in this battle — Michelle Simpson never loses !!!! she never does (points her hand to her chest)

STANLEY : (chuckles) Let’s play then — in the game of chess, they’re no champions — everyone is bettered everyday (laughs) <<<<<walks out>>>>>

UNCLE JOE : (walks up to where Michelle was lying down on the floor crying ) Michelle — Michelle

MICHELLE :( raises her head to meet him) I dint kill them, Uncle Joe — I dint kill Steve’s parents — You have to believe me

UNCLE JOE : I believe you, Michelle — I really do

MICHELLE : really ? (he nods) thanks I’m glad you do (embraces him) but Steve — he thinks I killed them

UNCLE JOE : shh–hh Michelle, Steve will come around- — i’ll talk to him (drags her to her feet)

MICHELLE : thanks, uncle joe

MISS HILDA : You guys make me jealous, let’s just leave already

they all walk out

*************************************************************

After making his announcement, Mr. Popov stepped down from the podium and walked away amidst murmurs and chatters from some students across the hall — Steve forcing his cousin into sex was impossible –

*************************************************************

UNCLE JOE : Steve, what are your plans now ?

STEVE : I have none, Uncle Joe — let me get home first and see my uncle

UNCLE JOE : okay — be careful and keep me updated with any developments

STEVE : sure (turns to leave)

UNCLE JOE : ehem — Steve —

STEVE : (turning to meet him) (interrupts his words midway) I know what you want to say — I know Michelle couldn’t have been the one to kill my parents, there’s a lot of hidden facts surrounding my parents death but that doesn’t make her free from the fact that — she was who ordered Mr. |Barley to investigate my parents in the first place ….

UNCLE JOE : yeah, i know

*******************************************************

DEAN : what comes up man — I got yo back real time

SAMMY : Same here bro — even it means kicking your uncle’s ass if that is needed

STEVE : (laughs) I’m ever grateful knowing you guys — we’ll remain friends for life and I’ll miss you guys

DEAN : awwn — don’t sound like a babe —

SAMMY : and don’t make me cry

they hugged each other one last time and he left

**************************************************************

Steve got home to meet his bags outside — he was surprised and shocked

NIFE : what is going on here ?

SECURITY MAN : na yoga and chsmall mayam wey sey make I drop am por outside

NIFE : what ?! how could Tola and Dad do this ?

Uncle Dan walks outside that minute

NIFE :( walks up to him) Dad, whats going on — why is Steve’s bags outside ??

UNCLE DAN :( points to Steve ) you’re ungrateful after everything you rape my daughter .. you ?!

TOLA : (walks out and meets Steve — pours a hot saliva on his face ) that’s for sleeping with my sis and taking her virginity — now, get away from this house

NIFE : No dad, |Steve dint—

STEVE : (interrupts her) Its okay Nife — no need to explain — Your dad’s mind is made up —
Thank you, Uncle Dan for everything you have done for me these past months I’ve been here- – I’m grateful
Tola, thank you for your care and support all these while — ill never forget the little chats and smiles we shared..

Nife, I most say : you’re a jewel — and ill miss you but wherever the wind of life throws me to I can never forget your love for me — GOODBYE

Steve dragged his bag out of his uncle’s house — unsure of where he was going, he was crying but he needed to be strong — he needed to be his own comforter now and thrive to be better

***********************************************************
LATER THAT NIGHT —
Nife explains all that happened to her dad and tola

UNCLE DAN : what ?! so Steve dint sleep with you — why dint you tell me earlier

NIFE : dad– I hate you you couldn’t even let the poor boy explain — why ?!

TOLA was already crying — : I spat on him and threw his stuffs out — Oh God

UNCLE DAN : (looking dejected ) I have a confession to make my children– Steve is not my nephew and he’s not your cousin —

NIFE AND TOLA : what ?!!

UNCLE DAN : yes — me and his dad were childhood friends but we are not blood Brothers

NIFE : Oh Dad .. and you still chased him out ? why ?

UNCLE DAN : I dint know what came over me and Mr. Popov promised me a cheque of #50,000,000.00 if I chased him away and I accepted — moreover he raped you so it was like getting justice and a little compensation —- I never knew Mr. Popov lied to me and Steve dint rape you…

TOLA : dad you’re despicable, you sold your friend’s son out for 50 million — dad, I’m disappointed

NIife ran up to her room
