Oh sorry for that, don't forget to leave before he comes back baby.. Tonia said, she laughed Sophie was about calling her mum when she entered Mum..(She breathed) mum I'm finished, Dominica has finished me, Barnabas has finished me.. Sophie cried Who gave you such information eh.. Choice shouted as she held her daughter Mum Barnabas asked me to leave his house,mum I'm finished.. She wailed Choice carried her up,took her to the car and drove off Elvis called Sophie several times but she didn't pick up He went to their house to find out why she wasn't taking his calls Hey! He called out to Sophie who was in the swimming pool Elvis! She responded sipping her wine 🍷 Here you are,why ain't you taking my calls Sophie Get a seat for yourself.. Elvis got a chair and sat close to her You left with my baby... Elvis said pouring wine for himself Your baby? Your wife already have a baby for you.. Forget about Geraldine first, she gave me a girl child which I don't even want,I need a male child Sophie... Wow, don't blame her for it, she's not God... Sophie replied I know Sophie but... I'll advice you to get a wife for yourself and let me be, your housemaid is available.. Sophie interrupted Elvis sighed heavily and left the compound with his face bowed The sacrifice is fast approaching, now I remember.. Sophie said aloud You have been sleeping with Elvis right from the moment you packed into this house, even on our wedding night you left the bed which we slept on to go meet Elvis You think I won't find out right? Barnabas blasted as he held Dominica You knew about all these and kept it to yourself? Barnabas you're a monster... Sophie screamed You're even lucky he didn't poison you.. Tonia said clapping her hands Please leave my house you have overstayed your welcome... Said Barnabas pushing her out of the way Dominica you did this to me.. Sophie cried Please don't come back here again.. Dominica replied Sophie stared at Dominica with tears and sweat on her face, she picked up her bag and moved out She was about entering her car when Elvis drove in with Geraldine and their baby Sophie! Geraldine called Sophie stood perplexed, she stared at her for minutes before finding her words Congratulations.. said Sophie tossing her car key You don't look happy, seems you have been crying.. Geraldine said I'm fine.. Sophie replied and waited patiently for Elvis I've cleaned your room, everything is in order now.. Elvis told his wife Geraldine smiled and went in Barnabas knows about us... Said Sophie Barn... He knows everything, right from the day I got married to him.. Sophie interrupted Can you please stop interrupting me? He knows so what do you want me to do? Elvis barked I'm no longer married to him and look at you,look at you Elvis happily married with a child,my husband married my own friend, what's all these Elvis? Sophie screamed as she punched Elvis on the chin Don't touch me again Sophie.. Elvis warned I'll have to tell your wife about us... Sophie said Elvis gasped "You won't dare it Sophie" he replied and held her arm Bet me on this Elvis... I'll use you for the sacrifice if you try me..He voiced out You will use me for the sacrifice? I'll be waiting but I promise to tell Geraldine about us.. Sophie entered her car and left What about my sister, what is Dominica doing here? Geraldine asked Barnabas who was busy with his phone Ask your husband..he responded Honey what happened? Why is Dominica married to Barnabas, when did it happen? She asked as soon as her husband came in Elvis heart skipped,he didn't answer her questions but left Follow him.. Said Dominica You went to that house to carry your clothes and forgot the pot, you obviously want to kill yourself.. choice ranted Bring down your voice, daddy might be eavesdropping.. Sophie said Shut up, you must get that pot before Barnabas or Dominica finds out They should find out mum,I'm just tired of everything,my whole life is a mess,mess you brought upon me.. Sophie shouted You requested for it... choice told her I requested for nothing mum, you pushed me into doing it and I think I'm tired Elvis said he will use me for the sacrifice if I don't keep my mouth shut He won't even dare it,he should leave you and face me,he thinks I don't know that he is a ghost.. Choice said A ghost? Mum Elvis is a ghost? Sophie screamed Why does he want to sacrifice you if he isn't a ghost,he does that every year and I keep wondering how he got humans.. Choice exposed This is very interesting,mum Elvis is a ghost... I'll tell you more when that pot gets here, for now we need that pot back.. Does Barnabas know about it? Sophie asked Yes,he knows I have a lot to tell you but... Mum talk to me, I've been sleeping with Elvis all these while... Sophie cried rubbing her palms together You have been sleeping with who? I didn't hear you clearly... Choice shouted Mum Elvis and I...has.. always...l..o..v.. Why the sudden stammer Sophie? You have finished me, Elvis was only meant for Geraldine I wanted to kill Geraldine through Elvis, I'm finished...Her mum cried Elvis what is happening? What is Dominica doing here? What am I even hearing,talk to me Elvis.. Geraldine screamed at Elvis whose mind was somewhere else Am talking to you Elvis.. she shouted Elvis jerked,he held Geraldine's fingers and caressed them Please take care of our daughter when I'm gone..He said slowly What do you mean? Geraldine asked raising her brows I'm sorry.. Elvis said You have been acting weird this days, what's the problem.. Elvis looked up and tears fell freely from his eyes Geraldine became scared, she ran outside to call Barnabas but couldn't find him She ran inside to meet her husband but couldn't find him, she searched everywhere but couldn't find him I was with him seconds ago, Elvis please answer me, your wife is calling you.. She cried Tonia came in, she looked at Geraldine and hissed Your husband has accomplished his mission and I think he is gone.. Tonia said Accomplished what mission? What are you talking about Tonia? Erm,I think I saw him leaving but he will soon be back.. Said Tonia But you just said he has accomplished his mission, what mission are you talking about? Geraldine asked Tonia turned and left the room to avoid further questions from Geraldine Sophie, it's remaining five days for the sacrifice.. Choice screamed as she imagined Elvis stabbing her daughter Mum,why does he want to use me for the sacrifice, his wife and daughter are available... You caused all these.. Choice said How? You... Don't exchange words with me,why will you allow Elvis to sleep with you? Calm down nah! Dad is in the parlour... Sophie said pinching her mum Shut up, you're always behaving like a fool sometimes I do ask myself if I am your mum.. Choice screamed I don't like this mum, you're shouting and I won't be happy if dad comes here.. Choice hissed and sat back on the chair, she gasped and turned to Sophie We must get that pot today,get ready... Mum! Must it be today? Yes Sophie.. Choice replied Sophie's phone rang,it was Geraldine She hesitated to pick the call,her mum collected the phone from her and picked it Sophie I can't find Elvis, Elvis,yes Elvis I can't find my husband... Geraldine cried over the phone What do you mean? Her mum asked Mum as I'm talking to you now Elvis is nowhere to be found,mum please come over Come with daddy,tell daddy that his daughter is loosing it.. Geraldine cried When last did you see him? Geraldine asked Mum I was with him not less than an hour here, suddenly he started acting strange as usual I ran out to call his brother when I came in I couldn't find him again.. Geraldine said Choice looked at her daughter, her daughter looked at her Okay,we will be there shortly.. Sophie said This is an opportunity to get away with that pot.. Mum I think we should leave without daddy,we can call him once I get away with the pot.. Sophie suggested I think that's a good idea, please dress up... Where are you heading to? Sophie's dad asked looking at both women To the chapel.. Choice chipped Chapel? On trouser? He asked pointing at Sophie's trouser She's not going with me, she will stop at the market to get some stuffs.. Choice lied Oh! Sophie when are you going back to your husband's house? He asked further Sophie has been avoiding that question for weeks now, she dropped her phone on the couch and sat down to face her dad Dad we ain't together again.. She said What happened? Dad can you imagine, Barnabas cheated on me with my friend Dominica I had to leave the marriage.. She replied Okay, that's good,you have a very great sense up there..he said pointing at her head Yes dad,I just have the type of yours, like father like daughter... Her dad smirked,he unlocked his phone and played a voice record where Choice was yelling at Sophie for sleeping with Elvis Sophie and her mum opened their mouth widely, Choice covered her mouth with her palm,an evil thought came into her mind immediately Mum please don't do this, don't touch my father, mummy please... Sophie screamed as she held her mum's right hand You want to stab me? Go ahead,go ahead and stab me... Her dad said Get your hands off me Sophie, this man has our secret in his palm... Choice shouted I can't let you do this,mum time is no longer on our side.. Sophie replied crying Sophie's dad laughed loudly,he collected the knife from choice and threw it on her face I have always known Elvis to be a ghost,I know everything...He said laughing How come? Choice asked settling on the couch Don't worry,you can't eat your cake and have it.. Geraldine needs to leave that house..He thundered as he picked his car key that was lying on the table Mum,dad will get there before us.. Sophie cried Calm down Sophie.. her mum said Mum let's go, that pot is my life.. Sophie replied Choice stood up and left the parlour, Sophie ran after her Geraldine was seen crying and scattering whatever she lays her hands on Tonia took the baby away from her because she was already going nuts Geraldine! Her dad called Daddy I want to see my husband,I want to see Elvis immediately.. She cried Calm down, your husband is fine,he will soon be here okay.. Her dad assured Dad I've been waiting for him,I don't want to believe what I heard Barnabas saying the other day,I don't want to believe that my husband is gone.. She cried What did you hear Barnabas say? Sophie asked Please I want my husband back that's all.. She replied pushing down the plasma Where is Barnabas Tonia? Sophie asked Tonia didn't respond, she was closing her eyes slowly Barnabas came in with his wife by his side This is the idiot you left my daughter for right? Choice barked Your daughter has been sleeping with Elvis right from the day we got married.. Barnabas replied So you have always known that your brother is a ghost and refused to tell me.. Sophie yelled Don't tell at me,you chose a ghost over me.. I chose a ghost over you? Barnabas you're talking trash,where is Elvis? She asked Elvis is gone for good..He replied Elvis,my husband? Gone for good? Please I don't want to believe what Barnabas and Sophie are saying, provide my husband.. Geraldine screamed immediately she remembered she will be living the rest of her life as a widow Elvis is coming!! Her father said patting her back Dominica went inside Sophie's room, she had left some cash inside the wardrobe She opened the wardrobe to collect the money when her eyes went straight to the pot She looked closely at it and sighed She rushed to where she dropped her anointing oil and sprinkled it on the pot "I cover myself with the blood of Jesus Christ"She said as she held the pot At first she dropped the pot on the bed,got a serviette which she used to carry the pot She went outside with the pot, Sophie saw her and pleaded with her not to drop it on the floor Why? Barnabas asked Just give the pot to me and I'll explain better.. Sophie said I want to drop it on the floor and I'm going to do that now!! Dominica shouted She squat to drop the pot and........... Please Dominica Please don't do this to me, okay I'll confess.. don't drop it,I'll confess.. Sophie screamed as she held her mother Confess what? Choice shouted, she covered Sophie's mouth with her palm Mum please confess, let's confess mum, I don't want to die.. Dominica sat down, she still held the pot with her palm Confess we are listening.. Barnabas said Don't mind her, she doesn't have anything to say.. her mum chipped Please I want to see my husband, please I want my husband.. Geraldine cried Your husband is coming Geraldine,calm down..Her dad assured Dad where did he go to? Where did my husband go to?. Dominica got tired of sitting on the chair, she stood up She lifted the pot up and was ready to damage it when Elvis came in It's time. Elvis said Time for what? Time for what Elvis? Geraldine shouted as she jumped on him Time for the sacrifice..... What sacrifice? Barnabas asked What sacrifice? Sophie's dad asked I thought Barnabas said you're a ghost... Geraldine asked her husband It's a long story..he replied The sacrifice should be in four days time Elvis, what are you talking about.. Choice said looking around Barnabas tell them how you and choice poisoned me.. Elvis said Barnabas? Dominica called Choice did not me.. Barnabas denied He did not me.. Choice denied as she trembled What sacrifice were you talking about Elvis? Sophie's dad asked It's complicated, Your wife and Barnabas tried to kill me.. Said Elvis How? Geraldine asked I've been sleeping with Sophie for reasons best known to me,I hope my wife forgives me Reasons best known to you? Elvis what are you even talking about? Geraldine asked Calm down.. Elvis said You have been sleeping with my sister for how long now Elvis? Geraldine shouted Elvis what are you talking about? Sleeping with me for reasons best known to you? Are you really a ghost if I may ask? Sophie asked Not really! He replied I never had any sacrifice in mind tho.. Elvis added Not really? Does it mean you didn't die? Does it mean we buried a moulded Elvis? But you lied to us that you're a ghost, that's why I asked you to marry Geraldine instead of Sophie.. Choice said You poisoned me, let's assumed I died,do I look like someone who is willing to help you destroy your daughter? But why would a mother want to destroy her own daughter,you just want to see the end of Geraldine.. Said Elvis Keep quiet! Choice shunned as her face turned red Please I just want to drop this pot and get the f**k out of here.. Dominica barked Please Dominica don't do this, please don't I beg you.. Sophie pleaded Confess! Geraldine said I will,I will but please hand over the pot to me.. she cried I can't unless you confess... Sophie confessed how she killed Geraldine's triplets Dominica threw the pot on the floor with anger, Barnabas fell down followed by Choice who screamed loudly Sophie stood looking at them helplessly, she glanced at them for awhile and fell down She stood up and started laughing, removed her clothes and started dancing Elvis you have been sleeping with my sister, how come Barnabas knows about the pot? He saw the pot the first it was brought in here,let me say he knows about it.. Choice said as spit gushed out of her mouth She was gradually turning to an imbecile Barnabas stood up,removed his clothes and joined Sophie Dominica couldn't fight back her tears "They used themselves for sacrifice" She murmured I'll have no other alternative but to live as a single mother... Dominica said, she went in and packed all her belongings and left Elvis apologized to Geraldine till no avail Her dad begged her on Elvis behalf till she accepted Sophie gave birth on the street, she died alongside with her daughter Barnabas was picked up by an elderly man who used him as a sacrifice THE END
