*EPISODE 16*
Mercy was happy yet pretending as if she wasn’t happy and she said “Okay sir. Thank you sir”.
Her daddy looked up and saw her facial reaction and asked “Aren’t you happy or you have decided to stay here with us?
“No… inu e dun gan ni o(she is so happy o). She just don’t know how to appreciate you abi Mercy? Her mother asked, looking at her
“Yes ma… hmmm, I mean sir. I am so happy” Mercy said as she managed to smile.
Yet, the last statement was ringing in her mind. She thought her dad will stop pestering her life but No, he only granted her permission. She might not understand what her dad is going to do next but she is gently played the game. Her mother watched her as she was eating. She seems confused because she couldn’t see the joy on her daughter’s face at least, this is what she has always wanted.
“What could be wrong…”She thought as they were eating.
After eating, she gathered all the plates and packed them to the kitchen. Her mother followed her without being suspicious as she turned back after dropping the plates, she saw her mother at the door entrance
“Mummy…. what is wrong? She asked as she was shocked
“Everything is wrong Mercy. You have changed. You are not who you used to be. I am scared, you are still struggling with somethings. What is it you are hiding from me dear” Her mother said as she moved closer to her
“Mummy nothing is wrong” she lied as she looked at her
“Common mercy, I am your mother. I can feel it within me. You know what, we will have this discussion another day. I don’t want your dad to be suspicious but whatever it is, we are going to overcome it
