Perfect SCARS

101

He didn't show up
Like he didn't even bother
Does he think this is some kind of joke
And his wife can just represent him like it a small matter
And his pathetic wife goes on using the word WE as if she knows anything about it
Is this how love turns you into a blind moron.... With all the allegations against your husband you still choose to be his errand girl... I don't understand
I am just so furious that I can say anything to anyone at this point

The court hearing went well and of course the case is moving to trails, my medical report and case file was enough to push the case forward

Although his lawyer claimed that he was out of the country and would be returning tonight which I found to be a huge slap on the face for everyone in this room including the judge himself so I told my lawyer to raise that fact but the judge only assigned a 50000 fine.......

I walked out of the courtroom in fury and hurried home. This didn't start as I expected but from now I have to be open to surprises because anything can happen

The next court hearing is in five days, I have five days to come up with an excellent full packed presentation that just put things right where they should be

On getting to the house, flashes of camera and group of people standing on the road... Media paparazzi everywhere, immediately they spoted my car at the far end they started running towards it
Why are they running towards me they should be bothered about me they should be worried about the man they are about to elect as senate

I was pulling reverse but they were so fast they were hitting my glass and yelling at me, throwing different questions at me

"Were You really adopted by Mr Jackson "

"Did he actually kidnap you "

"Is it true he raped you throughout the time you were in his custody "

"How long were you with him"

"Did he threaten to kill you if you ever said anything to anybody "

"Why did it take so long for you to open up "

"Are You just trying to pull him down because he is currently running for senate "

I couldn't take it anymore the crazy questions even with the windows rolled up i could still hear them and they won't stop following me and screaming like I was some kind of criminal,
This is insane

"Move away. ... Get off my car, Go ask your senator these foolish questions and stay away from me or else I will get you all arrested.... Move it you insensitive zombies..... Can't you hear me... I said back off"

They kept crawling around my car and I was suddenly feeling suffocated, what is the meaning of this.. My house is right there and I'm heading in the other direction of the road but they still won't let me be

When I stop giving in to their bullshit and pulled in full gear mode turning in different directions very fast. If they have their legs around my tires they are screwed but I can't think of a better way to get rid of them

When my back was cleared I reversed fully and made a sharp turn at the clearest spot and drove out of the estate
Now this crazy lunatics have drove me out of my home, where do they expect me to go
I drove with no direction for hours,
There's alot on my mind but thinking about it would only drive me nuts. I need to relax
Already am so pissed that Philip didn't show up today. although I know am not mentally ready to see his expression when he realize that I am Agnes but I don't want an extra day to keep living in denial not for him but for me

I want to challenge myself with this, whatever crazy thoughts are running through my head right now... I have to get rid of it..... This is suppose to be my escape route from the confusing feeling I developed since the first day I set my eyes on him after so long

I drove past a small buka and pulled over... I haven't had anything to eat all day

I hopped down and walk into the tiny but crowded eatery.. I sat down in a single seat by the window after waiting over twenty minutes and no one had come to take my order. I stood up... What kind of place is this, do they sell their food at really cheap rates or they just lack managerial skills

I was going to walk out of the crappy stuffy place when I heard a familiar voice

I looked in that direction and then I saw her though her head was facing down because she was serving food to the people queued up in front of her
I walked back towards her and joined the queue hoping to get a better view of her face

When it was my turn, she finally looked up and it was indeed her
Mrs Nwosu my class teacher who sent me to a Foster care in hope that I would get a better life

She didn't recognize me right away... I can't blame it been so long, I think I was like 11years old.. The last time we saw eachother

She hasn't aged much... Her face is still radiant and glowing. Her hair was wrapped in a net but I could still tiny grey strands hanging around her ear

"Miss what would you like..... "

"Fresh.... I mean what do you have "

"The menu is up there... Please move lemme make attend to others while you decide "

I moved aside and kept staring at her. I didn't expect to see her here... Her voice was still chirpy and pitchy as ever not to look like some freak I decided to order something

Instead of eating though I continue to glare at her, when I was done I went back to her queue and order something else..... It's not like am in a hurry to go anywhere

My house is filled with media lunatics so why not stay here with one of the few people I shared my best memories with

The buka was gradually getting less crowded and she eventually left the serving point and moved out to talk to the other staff.. When she walked passed my table... I couldn't help myself I held her hand. She stopped and looked at me

"Yes.. Miss "

"Can I please talk to you "

"Please don't tell me.. You lost your wallet or something.. You have ordered two meals already.. You have to pay for it. I dont want to hear excuses"

"No... It's not that,I can pay for my food thank you. I just need to talk to you please... Please sit "

She sighed and pulled out the seat in front of me and sat on it

"Mrs Nwosu "

"Yes.... How"
I held her hand in mine and smile blinking the tears in my eyes away. I dont even understand my emotions anymore... One minute am so angry the next am crying my eyes out

"I can't believe it really you ma'am... I didn't think I'd ever see you again "

"I.... I... Don't understand "

"It's me... Agnes Kofi at St Patricks School "

"Agnes..... Agnes, "
She held out her hand to rub my cheeks and I lean into her warm hands

"Where have you been.... Look at you. You look so beautiful.... God its been so long...... What happened  "

"Where do I even start from "

"Start with a hug my darling... "
She stood up and I jumped to hug her
God I really needed this
If anyone could have been a motherly figure in my life
It's be Mrs Nwosu
