Sits on her bed and sighs.

"How do you feel, mother?"

"Great"

Her response was so fast that it almost looked like there was a button used to puppet her.

"You don't feel guilty?"

Femi asked his mother

"Concerning what?"

"Disowning Rotimi"

"She deserved what she faced"

Turning to look at Femi, she had no eyes and her heart was ripped out.

Screams.

##

Brushing his teeth. Pauses. Spat and stares at the mirror

"Now what do I call that?"

Taking water and rinses his face and mouth and went to his mother's room. But she wasn't there.

"Mother!"

He screamed, looking for her round the house.

Coming out of the kitchen.

"Femi kilode"

Femi looks at his mother's eyes and heart

"Kilode?"

"Nothing, good morning mummy"

"Good morning"

She said going to the palor to eat what she took out

Femi sat beside her

"Mummy, do you think it's fair?"

"Of what?"

"Rotimi"

She heaves a sigh and drops her food.

"I miss her every single day, every single day, but what can I do, my husband is the head of this new home now"

"New home? What's that?"

"I'm pregnant and I guess it's a twin"

Femi smiled and imagined how fast she replaces people.

Stands up

"That's wonderful mother"

"And I know they are girls"

"Maybe a girl and a boy"

Femi added

"Because I'll soon be leaving"

Femi whispered in anger going back to his room

"Can you imagine my mother!"

##

Angered.

"You got her pregnant why?"

"My love calm down okay, it's all for a reason. Do you want my name, the Oluwaseun to end?"

"But I can give you children"

The fair lady said in anger

"You still don't get it do you, a blood line is necessary, you don't have the bloodline"

"What bloodline, what bloodline"

Angered

Shouts

"shut-up, shut-up, how dare you question me?"

She trembled.

"I-I- I'm sorry!"

"I know you are"

Snaps his fingers as some guys took her away.
