Read Story: SEASON 2 EPISODE 13
**
The news of the current happening in the
Kingdom of Umudike spread faster than
lightening. Even the little children tells their
own part of the story. Many people mocked
Ada while others pitied her and always detest
anybody that says evil of her…
Ada shamefully walked home that sorrowful
day, immediately she opened the gate Olamma
and Ugomma were already waiting for her to
come.
As she entered they laughed out the life
out of Ada
”Sister Virgin Mary” Olamma called Ada
”Witch!! See what you have done to yourself”
Ugomma added
”When you were jumping from one place to
the other you were enjoying it” Olamma siad
further and they laughed and mocked her. Ada
stood at a point and tears rolled down her
eyes. She couldn’t bear it anymore and she
walked to the backyard. As she was walking to
the backyard, Olamma poured her a bucket of
peppered water.
”Aarrh!! My eyes” Ada cried
”Pepper!!!” She exclaimed and they continued
to laugh at her
”That is what you deserve, witch!!” Ugomma
said and they walked inside the house. Ada
struggled with the pepper in her eyes and all
over her body. She cried as she couldn’t see
any water to wash it off
”Olamma! Ugomma. This is unfair ooh.. This is
not good ooh” She cried. Her leg jammed a
stone on the ground and she fell down rolling
on the sand. Luckily for her, Chioma, one of the
village dancers came to visit Olamma and
Ugomma. She came in and saw Ada rolling in
tears, she ran to her
”Ada, what is it?” She asked
”Pepper ooh” Ada shouted
”Ola!! Ugomma” Chioma shouted their name
and they came out
”Didn’t you see Ada here?” She asked them and
they snubbed her and went back inside the
house.
”This is wickedness ooh” Chioma said and began
to look for water. She found water and washed
off the peper in the eyes of Ada. As at then,
Ada’s eyes were already bloody red. Ada
breathed heavily, trying to regain stability in
her lungs. She sat on the sat and Chioma held
her head
”Thank you” Ada said
”But Ada if I may ask, who did this to you. As
in, the pepper all over you?” Chioma asked and
Ada looked at her
”Never mind my Sister. That is what the world
wants for me” Ada said
”Errhm, don’t be annoyed ooh. Is it true that
Ken raped you?” Chioma asked further
”All I said in the palace is nothing but the truth”
Ada said
”Since it is true, then take the oath, it is
nothing at all to take an oath and prove your
innocence” Chioma adviced Ada and she
exhaled
”I won’t my dear. God will prove my
innocence” Ada said and Chioma felt for her.
Later on, Ada stood up by the help of Chioma,
they hugged each other
”I will take my leave now” Chioma said
”Take Care” She added and left not seeing
Olamma and Ugomma again as she grew hate
for them on what they did to Ada. Ada
managed and went into her room as her body
was still pepper hot…

AT NIGHT – SAME DAY
Emetamma and his family were seen in his
compound sitting in two benches and Ada stood
in their midst.
”You can see what you have brought upon
yourself” Emetamma began
”Shameless She-goat. I don’t have anything to
say to you yet” Emetamma continued
”As the Igwe has already said, you have five
days to leave this village and nothing more. But
before that, let me warn you” Emetamma’s
mood changed
”Don’t you in this your banishment go to my
village or my wife’s village or any of our
relative’s village. Afterall, your father never
had a village. He was always in the city. If I hear
that you are in any of these places, I will make
sure I deal with you” Emetamma said and Ada
fell on her kneels
”Papa, please, where will I go from here. I beg
you” Ada pleaded
”That is your concern, when you were opening
your filthy legs around, you didn’t think of the
consequences. Nonsense!” Emetamma said
”I have said my own” He concluded and stood
up to leave and Ada still was pleading
”Papa, where do you want her to go kwanu?”
Obinna asked
”That is her business not mine” Emetamma
said
”And again, you are not staying in this house by
tomorrow evening so start packing your things”
Emetamma concluded and walked inside. Ada
burst out in frustrating tears
”Stupid girl” Nwanneka insulted Ada and spat in
front of her and left.
”Mother of a bastard” Olamma and Ugomma
called Ada and laughed at her. Obinna looked at
Ada, although he felt for her but he couldn’t do
anything as he thought all his father and his
sisters told them were right. He stood up
quietly and left. Ada was left alone frustrated.
Her tears finished in her eyes. So many
thoughts flowed through her mind.. Later on,
she tried going inside the house but
Emetamma locked the door, so she slept
outside….
