CHAPTER 42

A.N This is my first time writing in third person narrative so please point out errors kindly.

Third person P.O.V

Bimbo kept her eyes on the road as she drove to Alex's house. When Aaron told her everything this morning, she wanted to kill Alex with her bare hands but Ayo and Aaron had other plans.

"How dare he? how can any man be so heartless? He must be locked up" she thought to herself.

She turned her attention away from the road to look at Naomi who was staring out the window as if there was something fascinating about the road.

"Praise God you left, I don't know what Aaron would have done to himself"

"Do you think they've gotten there?" Naomi asks turning to face Bimbo.

"The boys are there already" Bimbo says.

"I hope we get there soon" Naomi thinks to herself.  The way Aaron was talking this morning really scared her 

"Are you still coming to my place tonight?" Bimbo asks her.

Naomi nods affirmative, of course she was, she wouldn't miss it for the world. 

"Temi will get to Lagos soon" Bimbo says.

"That's cool, we should visit her in Abuja one of these days" Naomi says tapping her fingers on her knee.

"Yeah, one of these days" Bimbo says taking a left turn. "It would be fun oo, going to Abuja. We'll discuss with Temi" 

They get to the front of Alex's compound and Bimbo's car comes to a halt.

"Let's go" Naomi says getting down from the car.

"You go, I'll wait for the police to arrive" Bimbo says.

Naomi hesitates a little before heading inside. She opens the gate and walks into the compound she's not surprised to meet the front door open.

She enters into the house to meet and empty living room so she rushes to the dining room.

"Wait here" Ayo says holding her hand.

"You are a real bastard"

The sound of Aaron's voice caused Naomi's head to turn in that direction she shocked to see him holding Alex's collar so tightly.

"Get your hands off me" Alex says pushing Aaron.

Aaron's feet skidded on the floor causing hip to loose balance for a second, but he immediately bounced back and knocked Alex on the jaw.

He didn't stop there his fist sliced through the air and struck Alex across the face exerting force on his nose and he fell to the floor.

"Aaron that's okay" Naomi screamed trying to break free but Ayo's grip was strong.

From what she could be see, this fight has been going on for a while and she was terrified she had never seen Aaron so violent.

"That's what he deserves" Ayo says. "He deserves much more Naomi"

Aaron clenches and unclenches his fists as he walks closer to Alex. "Shameless bastard that needs to be in Yaba left" Aaron thought as he stared at Alex who was lying on the floor in pain.

Alex let out a bitter laugh as he managed to get up from the floor. Aaron takes some step backs.

"You think you're strong abi?" Alex says. He was slowly trying to gather strength. He knew he was very weak but he couldn't let them no.

He was an all mouth type of person. He can only talk nothing more.

"What can you do, I'll kill you today" Aaron says in a bitter and cold voice.

The world kill sent shivers down Naomi's spine.

"There will be no need for that, the police will take over" Bimbo says coming into view.

"Take him away" Ayo says letting go of Naomi's hand.

Naomi immediately runs to Aaron's side and holds his hand lacing her fingers with his.

"So you set me up" Alex says with a shaky voice as he struggles with the police.

He attempts to touch Naomi but Aaron pulls her away.

"Oga move, you wan make I break your head" The police man says giving Alex a hard slap on the back.

Naomi's grip on Aaron's hand tightens and he gives her a heart-warming smile which she returns.

She was happy to have her normal Aaron back.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Naomi's P.O.V

"We are there" Bimbo says excitedly as her car comes to a halt.

They just stopped at Bimbo's mother's house. Bimbo said she needed to see her then Aaron and Ayo said they wanted to go with her so I had no choice but to follow them.

Bimbo knocks on the gate repeatedly, after some minutes the gateman comes to open it.

"Good afternoon" he says.

We all respond to his greeting as we walk in.

Bimbo and Aaron are walking ahead of us, they are arguing about something as usual while Ayo and I are walking in step with each other.

"Be prepared oo. Bimbo's mum is a bit intimidating" Ayo says.

"After experiences with my own mother, there's no intimidation I can't stand" I say with assurance in my voice.

Bimbo knocks on the door and it is opened by who I presume is a housekeeper.

"Yinka"!! Bimbo shouts as she enters the house.

He comes almost immediately he obviously ran because he's breathing like crazy.

Bimbo carries him and tickles him.

"Where is Grandma?" Aaron asks.

"She upstairs with nini" Yinka says as Bimbo puts him down.

"In her room?" Aaron asks already heading upstairs.

"Yes" Yinka says then he runs off.

Ayo walks up the stairs with Bimbo and I following close behind.

"My mum is quite intimidating, so just be at your best behaviour" Bimbo says then we step into a large bedroom.

The woman who I presume to be Bimbo's mum is sitting on her bed and playing with Bimbo's daughter, nini.

"Welcome my children sit down" she says facing us.

"Good afternoon mummy, this one you are speaking english and not Yoruba. I hope all is well" Bimbo says sitting beside her.

"All is well, It is because we have a foreigner among us" she says staring at me as if I killed her child.

They were right oo. She was very intimidating, with her blank and expressionless face, sharp eyes and confident aura.

"Naomi is not a foreinger oo" Ayo says with an amused smile.

"Ta ni obìnrin náà?" she asks him.

(who is she)

He leans in and whispers something into her ears and her lips form into a smile.

"Iyawo wa" she says to me with a wide smile.

(our wife)

I'm not fluent in Yoruba but I know what that means.

I turn to Aaron for explanation but he just stares at his phone like it's the most important thing in the world.

"Just go with it" Bimbo whispers to me.

"Everybody leave except Naomi" she says with an authoritative voice.

They immediately get up and leave.

She turns to face me and smiles sweetly, I return her smile as there's nothing more I can do.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Naomi's P.O.V

"Are we there yet?" I ask feeling impatient.

"No" Aaron says flatly.

We've been driving for what seems like forever. I'm getting irritated as the trip is too long and I can't see anything because I have this blindfold over my eyes.

Apparently Aaron feels bad about not giving me a birthday present so he wants to surprise me with something.

I insisted that I didn't mind not having a birthday present but his mind was set.

The car comes to a halt and I'm filled with happiness. Finally, I can get up my butt hurts.

I hear Aaron get down from the car then he comes over and pulls me out.

"Careful" he says steadying me.

He holds my hand and we walk in together.

"Can I take the blindfold off?" I ask.

"Nope, not until I say so" he says curtly and I huff in annoyance.

We walk some more before coming to a halt.

"You can take it off" he says.

I reach back and untie the blindfold. We're in a restaurant.

I blink my eyes repeatedly to make sure this isn't a dream. I even pinch myself and it's extremely painful so I'm sure this is real.

I'm in utter shock as I stare at my siblings. Yes, Nathan, Moses and Ruth and it's easy to tell they are equally shocked.

"I thought it was scam" Ruth says breaking the silence then she gets up and wraps me in a bone crushing embrace.

I hug her back unable to utter a word, she pulls away first.

"It's really you" she says then she turns to face my brothers "I told you that my prayers weren't in vain didn't I tell you that we'll see her again" she says then she hugs me again.

My baby sister, I'm so happy to see her. I can't even believe I'm seeing her.

Moses stands up and gives me a hug which I return we stay like that for some minutes.

"It's so good to see you again" he says with a grin after pulling away.

"We have to take her home" Ruth says to Nathan who is still staring at me.

"Ode, you won't come and greet me abi?" I ask.

"You haven't changed, who is older between the two of us. Who should be greeting who" he says getting up.

"Last time I checked we're twins" I say then I give him a bear hug.

"I missed you so much Naomi, I nearly died" he says in a low voice only for my hearing.

"Same here" I say after pulling away.

The four of us stand there not saying anything but a deep conversation os going on, the message we're sending across doesn't need words.

"I'll be leaving now" Aaron says to me.

"Okay, let me see you off" I say taking his hand.

I don't talk till we get outside. As soon as we get to his car I pull him in for a hug and he hugs me back. We pull away after some second.

"Thank you so much, I love you so much" I say smiling.

"Don't mention, it was hard to trace them but I didn't give up, I knew that you wouldn't be complete till you reunited with them" he says.

"Lower your head a little" I say.

He gives me an odd look but he does it anyway then I press my lips against his.

My lips moved against his soft ones slowly with a hint of urgency and he let out a groan. We soon resulted to open mouth kisses, our tongues stroking and twirling. He nibbled against my lips, sucking against them causing me to moan.

His lips moved against mine and I moaned at how good it felt. I was feeling hot all over. He let out a low growl as my hands travelled up his chest. He wove his fingers into my hair, massaging my scalp and it felt so good.

"You people have not changed abi?"

We immediately pull away to face my siblings standing in front of us.

Ruth is trying to supress a laugh, same as Nathan.

Moses just has an amused look in his eyes.

"Outside again, outside" Ruth says with a giggle.

"This is so embarrassing. What is wrong with us sef outside again"

"Can you give us a minute" I say feeling embarrassed.

"To devour each other, sure we'll give you five minutes sef" Nathan says with a smirk.

Then they leave.

"Nathan will bring me home" I say facing Aron.

"No problem, don't stay away too long" he says then he places a kiss n my cheek.

"Bye" I say then I walk off to meet my siblings.

"She's back" Ruth says as soon as she sets eyes on me.

"How was it?" Nathan asks as he unlocks his car.

"Nobody will speak of it" I say as we enter the car.

"And who is stopping us?" Ruth asks.

Nathan turns on the car and the engine roars to life then he drives off.

We get to my parents house in no time at all. Nathan parks outside and we all get down.

We walk in and Ruth rings the doorbell.

"Who is there?"

"It's Ruth" she says.

The door opens to reveal a middle aged woman.

"That's Moses's wife" Ruth whispers to me.

"Do they live here?" I ask with creased eyebrows.

"Nope, we were all here when we got the call from Aaron, we didn't tell them where we going in case it was a scam" Ruth explains.

I just nod.

"Mummy, Daddy we're back" Nathan shouts as we climb the stairs.

Ruth opens a door and we walk into a spacious living room.

"Welcome, did you see what...." My mum trails off when her eyes land on me.

I'm just as speechless. Time has matured her over the years but if I saw her on the streets I would still know her.

"Is that who I think it is?" she asks with a shaky voice.

"It is her, your daughter has returned" Moses says collapsing on the couch.

"Mummy it's me" I say moving closer.

She looks at me as if she's unsure but after some seconds she pulls me into a hug.

She shouts for my Dad to come out of the room in our native language.

"Good afternoon father" I say about to go down on my knees but he pulls me up.

"I told you, Adesua can't just die like that" he says with a shaky voice.

"Sit down" My mum says.

I sit on the couch beside Nathan.

"How have you been?" My mum asks.

I let out a sigh before telling them everything from how it all started to meeting Aaron to how Alex was handed over to the police three weeks ago.

When I'm done, we all sit in silence not saying anything.

"Why are we quiet? She has been through struggles but she's fine now. We are meant to be celebrating" Ruth says breaking the silence.

Her energy was still the same.

"Oya, all of you go the kitchen and make something" My mum says.

My siblings head downstairs but I remain glued to the couch.

She has not changed either.

"Mummy, I just came na" I say in an attempt to get out of cooking.

"You just what, you better get up" she says.

I stare at her and my lips form a frown which she totally ignores before getting up.

"The most annoying goat of all time is back" Nathan says as I enter the kitchen.

"Don't start oo, I just arrived" I say getting an apron.

"Two of you save this madness for another day" Moses says with a warning voice.

"We will try" Nathan and I say in unison smiling at each other.

We still got it!
