"May I have a word Mr. Collins?"
Ifechukwu stopped from shutting the door to the back seat of his car where his six year old daughter was sitting and looked at the prudish lady walking towards him. Lately he had noticed her on several occasions when he had come in late to drop Udomsinachi. He has never exchanged greetings with her because somehow he has always felt as if she was judging him. 
"I feel its wrong the way you abandon this little girl in school till this time"
"Excuse me?" Ifeee said.  Those who knew him would never continue speaking when he spoke with such deadly calm or looked at them in that manner. but the little witch standing before him either pretended not to notice how pissed he was or her excuse might be that she didn't know him that well.
"I am not too far from you that you didn't hear me. I don't care why her mother doesn't live with you anymore. What I care about is the well being of my learner, Udom, and right now, I can emphatically say that she is not well taken care of considering when you pick her up after school"
Ifechukwu was flabbergasted. Who the hell was she to question the way he carried out his fatherly roles? 
"Please see to it that you improve on the caring of her before I call child services on you"
"What the hell?" Ifee exclaimed and before he could say more the witch wished him a good day and walked away.

Ifechukwu Collins was a widow who lost his wife in an auto crash.  The stress of caring for his daughter and handling his job was rubbing off on him. He was doing his very best to get by until the Supervisor at his daughter's school decided to question how he discharged his parental duties.All Rights Reserved
