Unexpectedly Mine

CHAPTER XVIII

No one would ever wish to fall on Rahama's  bad side. The only person that seems not to be affected by her is Sadiq . So far, he has been the only person that always put her in her place.

He is like her tormentor and she hates the fact that he always gets to her.

The event of yesterday is still deep eating her up. Her dad had been avoiding the topic since yesterday when she confronted him at home. He was able to get pass the topic by lying that he wasn't feeling too well so they should leave the matter till today.

Here she is, right at his office, tapping her foot, waiting for him to finish going through the file he was busy with. And the funny fact was that Alhaji Dabo was only using the file as an excuse to delay the matter. Rahama is a very big headache for him. He was dissapointed when one of his employee had to explain what happened at the office after his absence. Its high time he tells her what she need and what she needed right now is Therapy... She needs therapy, If not ,she will grow old alone coz no man will want a angry woman for a wife.

" Dad you know I'm waiting for you right? " she said annoyingly

He close the file with a loud sigh " you're so impatient "

She scowl " how can I be patient when you took a decision without me. You made me a laughing stock in the office, dad. "

He glared at her " don't forget I'm  still your father. So watch how you speak to me "

" sorry " she pout

" Good, now you listen. What is it  I heard about you slapping and manhandling an employee? Don't you know that you have no right to touch an employee?!. What made you think that you can do as you wish!"

" but dad, she called me wicked"

" so what if she called you wicked? " he snapped " the act you portrayed yesterday wasn't it wickedness? "

" but dad"

" Stop but dad me. I'm tired of all your troubles. I am sick and tired of it all. The best I could think of was to take away your job, and that was what I did"

Her eyes were now filled with unshed tears" you can't do this to me dad, please. You know how much I love that job"

Alhaji Dabo tries not to allow her tears affect him like how it always does " you should have thought of that before you manhandle that poor lady who is 10 years older than you"

" I'm sorry"  her tears flow freely ,down her cheeks.

" the only person you need to apologize to is that lady. I wish she slapped you back, it would have been more better. " he glared at her

" am sorry papa. Please forgive me. "

Papa was what she usually use whenever she wants her dad to forgive her when she does something wrong.

" I'm now papa ?" he said with a brow raise

" I'm sorry. Tell me what you want me to do. I promise, I will. "

This was the particular question he had wanted her to ask

" You need Therapy "

Her eyes almost bulged out " what?! "

" yes you heard me right. You need to see a Doctor . You need help. I shouldn't have allowed you to stop going back then." he shakes his head, regretful

Her lips quivered " are you saying that I'm running mad ,dad? " she couldn't believe that her dad would suggest something like that.

He sigh. He took her hands which were on the table in his " Dear, no one said you're running mad or some sort. " he said, concerned.
