The copious consequences

FOUR MONTHS LATER.
"I can't believe that we convocating soon! I am so happy school is finally over!" Nifemi grinned, and Dara smiled, hopefully.

It had been four months since her father died and she could not say everything was going smoothly but she was doing better and taking everything slow. Everyone started breathing down her neck as soon as they found out that she cut Maria off and invited Keasha back into her life.

Maria went to the media and public to destroy her reputation. It almost affected her daughter's school admission, Nifemi helped a lot with her PR before Kevlin found a professional PR team for her. She went public with the story of the abuse she suffered at her mother's hands and how she constantly had to battle even as a child.

Everyone shifted from having the conversation of how she was a villain to how money can not buy happiness. Although there were still people that firmly disagree with her decision, she stood by it saying that strangers on the internet would not determine who she let back into her life.

Eventually, Temi also did an interview revealing how much pressure he was under as the first child of the Oladele empire and how much he sacrificed for his father to be cut off. He admitted and confirmed the rumours of why he was kicked out and thanked Dara for reestating him as a normal employee of Oladele's and co. He was more than qualified for his job and the salary was good. He finally got back on his feet and started taking care of himself again.

"Shade is at it again," Nifemi said scrolling through Shade's newest page, shaking her head, Dara's eyes moved from the laptop to her friend's face that had a scrawl on it, "your sister needs serious help, Dara, what will she gain by everything she is doing?"

Shade would not budge, she despised Dara and had shown up to her interviews to simulate her, she would go on podcasts and blast her younger sister. She stated relevant as long as she sold the narrative that her birthright was stolen from her.

She hated that she went from Grace to grass, nothing satisfied her hunger, she did everything to compete with her younger sister too but time and time again she felt inadequate.

Dara had everything, a good man beside her, a sweet daughter, and all the money, cars, houses, and property, she had the following and influence on her social media and soon became a public figure speaking out on child abuse, child molestation and femicide. She had her elder brother, her friends were also good everything about her life was perfect.

The perfect body, and skin, she looked like their mother Maria, she had elegant beauty and a cool fashion sense. She became a trendsetter on her social media, everyone wondered what she was up to. While she was known as Darasimi Ola dele's estranged sister that stayed relevant because of her younger sister's name.

Her followers started dropping her because of her problematic, behaviour and she felt helpless, suffocated and tired.

"I tried reaching out to her multiple times but after she went on her Instagram to use it again, I gave up. Temi tried reaching out to her but she told him off there is nothing I want to do. I can hope it will stop one day," Dara explained sighing.

She was tired of the way things were going with her sister, they were never close but now, things were spiralling out of her control.

"Some of the things she is saying are so stupid that I am sure people would even buy it," Nifemi said scrolling through the page, "I just hope she would leave Dara out of all of this, my daughter should not be used as a prop for clout."

"She is very stupid! I can not deal with trolls in my life! I mean after everything that has happened, I do not think, it is even advisable at this point to ever reach out to her anymore. She is just a bitch!"
