A little peace

Anton and the rest with Stone drove out to celebrate, Bones didn't feel like being in the midst of people so he told them he was exhausted and was heading home. On his way home, he remembered he was suppose to call Chiamanda to tell her how everything went. He dialled her number and put the phone on speaker.

Hey Bones, I saw the news....wow it was awesome....I had my fingers crossed the whole time I was watching the video. Good job you guys, I really missed not being there.... Chiamanda said into the phone.

You really didn't miss much...he said everything himself. You must be on your way home now I guess...Bones replied her.

Ummmmmmm not really I stopped to get some drinks, I was craving alcohol. Chiamanda wanted to ask him over but she was scared that he'd turn her down.

Alone? Bones asked. A woman shouldn't be out alone in a bar plus you know it's not safe to be by yourself now plus Ms Sky asked us to stay on low key till the whole thing is over.

But it's over now Bones Chiamanda said.

We don't know who else is out there. Where are you? I'm coming to you ...Bones said as he listened to Chiamanda.

Chiamanda hugged her phone happily as Bones ended the call. He has no idea but he's gradually falling for her.

I'll be her black Knight, Dwayne said as he gulped down the alcohol in front of Sky.

Hey pretty face...you can hold your liquor that's nice boy....I'm proud of you Stone said patting Dwayne on the shoulder.

Thanks for your hard work everyone. It hasn't been an easy month for us. Order away guys....it's on me, Sky said smiling as she raised her cup of juice up...to Jaydite, she said.

To Jaydite they chorused.

Easy on the alcohol buddy, we still need to keep watch, Anton whispered to Stone.

Yes sire, don't worry I know my limit....Stone replied him laughing.

After spending two hours in the bar... everyone parted ways. So what do you think about what Mr Jide said about you being Mr J's child. Anton asked as he drove home.

That's impossible Anton, the only man in my mom's life was my dad, she didn't even have a boyfriend and they got married the old fashioned way and I look too much like my dad plus I think I would know if he's my dad.

Buy do you ever wonder why he chose you? Anton asked

We connected and he fell in love with my pure heart, nothing more. We were meant to cross path. But Anton, all the years you've been with him, have you ever heard him talk about a child, other than his girls?

No I haven't.

Why did you refuse to be CEO Anton, you are still going to run the company after I deliver. I mean he's like a dad to you.

Yeah I know but I love my freedom Sky...I don't want to be controlled by shareholders or anyone I'm a freelancer. Remember he willed the Jade company in China to me but I told him I wasn't ready.

Ok Sky said, rubbing her tummy.

The rest of the week went smoothly, Anton resumed his training with Dwayne. Femi was able to attend school freely without fear.

No strange news on the internet about Jaydite.

The video sent to the public was edited, only the part of Mr Jide's confession was online. They removed the part where he suspected Sky to be Mr Jayden's daughter.

Although Sky knew she wasn't his child, she just couldn't get the thought of her head. If Mr Jayden really do have a child out of wedlock, then who could this child be and just where is this child? Sky continued her secret investigation on the case without telling anyone.

Its been long since we've hung out sist, stop complaining and enjoy. Jenna said to Sky as she held the steering wheel tight and focused on the road.

How can I enjoy when I don't know where you are taking me, plus Jenna you are driving, we all know how much you hate driving cause you are a bad driver. Please let me drive Jenna, think of your unborn niece.

Sist please have faith in me, I know about your condition that's why I'm slow. It won't be a surprise if you drive plus I need to pass my driving test so I can get my license sist. You know how badly I need the license, the double trafficator is on sist, I won't kill you....now stop distracting me.

Ok Sky said as she leaned back on her chair. It was a Sunday and Sky like to sleep in after service, that is if she don't visit her mom. She was all ready to sleep when Jenna rang the doorbell like a maniac. And now here she is stuck with Jenna. She planned on spending her birthday indoors. She told everyone she didn't want any party and they all have her gifts in church.

It's your birthday sist, this is my birthday gift to you...just hold on, you'll love it.

You already gave me a gift Troy...Sky said smiling.

Yeah sist....well I'm Troy so you should expect more.

Loosen your grip on the wheel Jenna....and relax...you are in control, Sky said to her sister as she gave her some pointers.

Few minutes later, Sky screamed as they arrived their destination. Sky could already perceive the aroma of the ofada stew(local stew made with locust bean) Ofada stew...how did you find this place? I mean....when did they open? Gosh I love you Jenna...she said as she kissed Jenna loudly on the cheek. Sky came down from the car and ran to into the small restaurant.

I told you, you'd love it. Please stop running sist, so you don't go into labour...the restaurant isn't going anywhere...Jenna screamed after her sist.

You are the best Jenna, Sky said as she drove home, do you know how long I have been searching for ofada stew and rice? especially the one made by the indigens, you only get this in City L and even when I was there...I didn't have the time to eat it. I'm going to sleep well today. Thanks Jenna, I love you.

Yeah, yeah sist, Jenna said as she closed her eyes.

Shouldn't you be practicing your driving lazy bones? Sky said as she eyed her sister.

I'm not in the mood anymore....Jenna said as she yawned.

tsk, tsk, tsk, you'll never get that license if you continue like this.

Don't worry sist I'll get the things from the car, you go on in. Jenna said to her sister as they got to Sky's place

Sky belched as she walked to the front door, she was full. Now she can sleep for hours.

SURPRISE!!! was what she heard as she opened the door. No way I told you I didn't want this. No wonder y'all were acting strange...now I know why. Sky said as she held her chest with one hand and placed the other hand on her baby bump.

They all sang happy birthday song for her and asked her to blow out her candle.

I swear if I get any more surprises today, I'll pass out. Sky said as she looked at her family. Her mom and siblings, her grams and her niece and nephew, Anton, her brother in-law, Zino and her family and the newest addition to the family, Dwayne. Even Chiamanda, Stone, Bones and Femi were all around. She smiled as they all wished her well
