Married in Disguise - Episode2



Omowoma was ten years old when she lost her dad. He was a dedicated father until his death. They were not very rich but he could provide the little he could for his family. Her dad never bothered her mum for anything. He would enter the kitchen and prepare dinner whenever her mum was tired. With the little education he acquired in the 50's, her dad was able to make good use of himself. He built a house in his village and sent Omowoma and her sibling to school but never failed in giving them meaningful scolding whenever they were wrong.

It wasn't long when Omo's father returned from the council of elder's meeting that he started complaining about his head aching him. Usually when Omo's dad is having this, the mum would give him a lovely head massage. Her Mum tried it but it didn't stopped the head from aching harder. He complained about his entire body .He was in excruciating pains as he whined on the floor. His eyes turned red. Omo's mother called out to her neighbours for help. Before they could lift him up, Omo's father was already gone. He is gone, Omo's mother screamed with a wailing voice throwing herself on the ground. He is gone? Who is gone? What does that mean? Omo whispered to herself.
She didn't understood the word 'gone'. She and her little sister were asked to go inside. In less than 30 minutes 'He is gone? Where has he gone to? But he didn't tell us he was traveling. She thought to herself. Where's Daddy? Asked Elo, Omo's five year old sister. Daddy has traveled she muttered. But to where?

Married in Disguise (Episode 1)

It was a cold and short evening as the moon gave no light. Kome and her siblings were up waiting for the moonlight -a tradition that calls all the children to gather round their lovely father, the chief orator of Umudo kingdom who always tells them folktales. But today was a different one as the rains came intruding. So grandpa won't tell us a story today asked Ufuoma. No, I don't think grandpa would, replied Kome. Just when they were thinking their dad called on them to come over to their small Hut. They rushed down, spread their mats and sat for the day's tale. Unfortunately for them, their grand-father didn't tell them about his normal folktales. Today I will be telling you a story about a young promising girl. But before I start, where is your mother? In the kitchen, they all echoed. It's okay. But Grandpa, you didn't complete that of the tortoise and the frog last night. Ufuoma, yes I didn't but today, I will be telling you a very interesting sto...

Mr and Mrs Austin Odinga arrived at the city some minutes past 5pm. Omo was so tired. She was taken to her room up stairs by one of the female domestic staff. She freshened up and came out to be with her husband who was already entertaining his friends as she has been told the A.O's mansion rules already by the senior staff.
