"Here, I've bought them honey, Samuel, take them and help me to prepare the tea for her. There's bread in one small table next to the shelf, get it and come along with it" he stated as he handed them to me.

"I need to talk to my wife okay" he added while I left for the kitchen to prepare the tea.

I quickly tiptoed towards the kitchen door and peeped them to observe what they were saying..

"Honey, Samuel would be here shortly just exercise some patience okay. And, anyway, honey, it's been weeks since we had sèx, but it's okay, I don't want to bother you right now, so let me leave it until you feel better. And I'd take you to my pastor very soon to have him pray for you likewise me myself" he said while rubbing her laps.

"Samuel why is it taking you long?" he echoed from where he was sitting.

"Ummmm, I'm almost done brother" I replied as I hurriedly ran to make the tea.

I finished making the tea, went to grab the bread, cleared my throat, took some deep breath and went to deliver them to him and left. Although he told me to prepare some for myself but I told him I'm okay.

I checked the time and it's almost 3pm.
"Gosh! I need to leave this house in order to avoid certain things from escalating. The more I stay, the worse it gets. I'm not comfortable seeing my brothers face." I muttered to myself as I stood in the kitchen, angrily slamming my left leg against the wall.

I was just thinking about what his wife told me earlier about getting married.
"But I still want to enjoy myself before I get married, I want to have fun. I don't want to align myself to one woman alone" I kept soliloquizing while loitering round the kitchen.

I quickly went to meet them in the sitting room.

"Brother I have something to attend to I have to leave. And thanks for everything."

"Just like that? but you didn't eat anything before going." He said.

"Don't worry about me, when I get home, I'd get something to eat and besides, I'm a grown up man. I can take good care of myself, worry more about Monica." I replied him, gave him a handshake and quickly left the house to get a taxi to come pick me up.

About two days after, my brother called me again during the afternoon and lucky for me, I was in my house.

"Samuel my wife's situation is getting worse, the only option left is for me to take her to the hospital or to our pastor but she's feeling reluctant. Insisting on taking drugs and tea. Samuel I think something terrible is happening to my wife... I'm fûcking perplexed right now!" he said as he exhaled deeply over the phone.

"Ummmmm, the thing is......, brother..., ummmm...., brother I..., I .....," I kept stuttering as I quickly ended the call because I was literally out of words and my heart rate had risen. I had the impression that the ground should open up and engulf me.

I was shivering, out of frustration I quickly got pressed and went to use the toilet.

What have I gotten myself into...., impregnating my brothers wife.., Oh Jesus! Samuel, what were you thinking?" I kept blabbing soliloquies.

"I'll leave this town next week, I don't want to involve myself in this. Oh crap! what if they undergo the test and he was told that she had been pregnant for weeks?"

"I won't allow that to happen the only option left of me is to eliminate his wife. God please forgive me but I need to clear up this my mess and it's the only way" I knelt down and joined both hands together as I continued to talk to myself.

"I won't be the one to do the kîlling but I'll hire some street thugs. After all, I my father is well to do which automatically implies that getting the money won't be my problem."

Throughout that day, I didn't pick my brother's call neither did I reply his messages.

The following morning I called my dad and requested for the sum of 10million naira that I have a small business that I want to establish.

"Samuel, I don't understand you. Is your elder brother aware of this? and besides, I'm not saying I can't afford such money, you are my youngest son. What business do you want to establish with such amount of money?"
He inquired while I remained speechless.

"My son, I'm asking you a question and you're keeping quiet are you okay at all? you know we haven't seen for months. What is this about? why do you really need the money for?"
