Make Me Your Wife [COMPLETED] -
Season 1 Episode 6
It was a beautiful monday morning, i woke up on
impose at exactly 6am and did some cleaning,
then got my beautiful self into the bathroom
where i spent almost an hour bathing and
singing all the songs i knew. I rushed out of the
bathroom soapy when my phone rang.
“Hello, Ronke how far na? Have you taken your
bath?” i asked wiping my soapy face with my
hand.
“We are big girls na, why must you address me
as Ronke? Or do you have mosquito bites calling
me Deborah?” Deborah asked me.
“See me see wahala o, is that not your name
again?” i asked
“This friendship and that name, which is more
important?” she asked.
“This, friendship ofcourse. Ehen Deb, have you
taken your bath?” i asked.
“Since na, am even on my way to the office with
big bro now sef” she replied me.
“What?” i asked instantly. “Never mind, see you
later. Cut the call now” i shouted.
I flung the phone on the bed, and hastily wiped
my body.
“Where are my undies?” i questioned myself.
“Where is my make up kits? Where is
everything?” i screamed. “Now, am beginning to
freak out. Damn it, settle down, calm down
pretty, calm down” i told myself.
Few minutes later i dressed and composed
myself. I couldn’t help but admire myself on my
black p@nt trouser with a yellow silk sleeve shirt,
a black bag with black heels to go with it. I said
to myself “Omo you no bad at all” as i got
myself a cab.
“Naiye’s company limited, here i come” i
whispered as i got into the company’s premises.
“Good day ma, welcome to NCL” the gateman
greeted me with a smile.
“Thank you, have a pleasant day ahead” i
murmured. And started walking towards the
company
“I have to move fast, you are fifteen minutes late
on your first day. The traffic today was just too
bad, not my fault” i thought. Just as i was trying
to enter the office i bumped into Nicholas and a
girl.
“Oh peach. Are you blind? Don’t you watch your
front? You almost broke my wrist” i retorted.
“My, my, heavens! Look who we have here”
Nicholas pulled me close and hugged me tightly.
“It’s almost a decade since we last saw. Look at
you, you’ve grown so beautiful Glory” Nicholas
said happily.
“Excuse me?? Nicholas who is this thing?” The
petite lady beside Nicholas asked.
“I beg your pardon? Lady, do i know you before?
If not that am in a happy mood today i would
have taught you manners. Please Nicholas, warn
your woman, i came here to work and not be
insulted” i said and adjusted my bag.
“Glory, she is not my woman, she is a staff here
and nothing else” Nicholas said.
“A staff, you said am a staff? Is that all i am to
you?” The lady asked Nicholas.
“Please excuse me” i said and walked into the
building but was stopped by the petite lady who
landed a dirty slap on my face.
“What?? How dare you? Are you mad?” i asked
with one hand gently placed on my already
swollen cheek.
“Yes, it is your mother, your sisters, your
grandmothers and decayed grandmothers that is
mad. Look here, what i did is just a welcome
party, the next time you open this pit you call a
mouth and talk to my fiance i would make sure
you spend thirty days in kirikiri prison” The petite
lady said confidently. At this, Nicholas who saw
all that happened ran up to me and tried
apologising but i pushed him aside, wiping the
tears from my face.
“What? Dad did you see that? Who is that girl?”
Deborah asked her dad who was also in the
reception room when it happened.
“That is Believe Ekem, pastor’s Ekem’s daughter.
She is Nicholas’s assistance. But why, i mean
what happened?” mr Omonaiye questioned.
“Pastor’s daughter? That girl is a demon and am
not going to stay here and let her hurt my friend
daddy.” Deborah said and walked towards me.
“Believe, have you lost your senses? What has
come over you? I have told you i would never
have anything to do with you, ever. Get that into
your big head” Nicholas said and turned towards
me. “Gloria, am so sorry. I don’t have anything
to do with her” he pleased.
“Yes, my brother would never have anything to
do with a possessed witch, she needs
deliverance” Deborah said.
“What? How dare you?” Believe asked instantly.
“Quiet!!!. The four of you to my office now!” Mr
Omonaiye snarled.
Six minutes later, the CEO of NAIYE’S COMPANY
LIMITED walked inside a well furnished office,
and sat inside giving us a stern look.
“Yes, what was that you all just displayed
outside? Miss Ekem what brought about your
slapping our new employee?” mr Omonaiye
asked.
“Sir, this lady is so rude and such a lady is
surely going to bring doom on this company.
Can you imagine she bumped into us and
couldn’t even apologised, she then flirted with
the manager, throwing her body at him and
telling me i stinked” Believe said.
“Sir, that’s a lie. Not everything she said is true” long evening dress
i said.
“Dad, miss Believe here is the rude one. I mean,
what she did was uncalled for and it proves
she’s is incompetent for this job” Nicholas
added.
“Miss Ekem Believe, do you think you are
incompetent for your post as an assistant
manager?” mr Omonaiye asked with an eyebrow
raised.
“Am sorry, sir. I lost my calm. I promise it
would never happen again sir” Believe
apologised,
“Okay then, the next time this happens again
someone’s appointment letter would be
terminate. Miss Ekem, tell the others there would
be a board meeting by 11am” Mr Omonaiye
said.
“Dad, haven’t you forgotten something? We are
new here” Deborah said.
“Old age, am so sorry dear. Let me call my
secretary to show you to your office.” Mr
Omonaiye said.
“There’s no need for that dad. I would show it to
them Ladies, this way” Nicholas said.
Nicholas tried to make up for what happened but
i avoided him as much as i could because on
two ocassion, Believe has threatened me in the
bathroom.
