What??? Ben side of the family

all chorus.

     "Why will it be our own quarters?"

Ben ask

     "And why will I live with you?"

Miriam ask Gina.

     "Well, you know the answer to that,"

Gina told Miriam.

    "I don’t want to share the same

 house with anyone."

     "But on a second thought I think

is a good idea", Ben said.

    "I know you will agree to this",

Miriam said and walk out on

the family gathering.

     "What did I say wrong"? Gina ask.

     Ken didn’t want to say anything

because he knows why Miriam

 is acting that way, is because of

 him, seeing ken everyday will

only bring back the memories

 she has be trying so hard

 to forget.

    The meeting ended without

getting to a good conclusion.

    "What was that for", Ben ask Miriam,

why did you walk away from

 everyone?"

    "I don’t want to share a house

 with them."

    "Why?"

     "Because I don’t want".

    "I know why, is it because of Ken"?

    "And what do you mean by that?"

    "I know is because of ken,

you too..

   "You are mad…,  Miriam call Ben

 out of anger.  "are you trying to

 insult me?"

    Ben gave Miriam a slap and they

 start fighting over Ken’s issue.

    "You are a married woman and

 you are supposed to forget anything

to has to do with my brother."

   "Who told you I have something

 to do with your brother?", they

quarrel,

    Princess rush to call granny to

 come and rescue her mother.

    "Granny, they are fighting again.

My mom and dad."

    "What will I do with those two,"

she get up to go to Ben, room.

    "Open this door, both of you open

this door. Where is boy, guards,

    The guard was afraid to break

down his boss’s door, rather he

start knocking, please sir open

the door, granny ma was to

 come in.

    "Is that what I ask you to do? I

 say break that door."

    They were there auguring about

    "Am fine, at least am a little bit

 away from all the troubles".

    "So how did you see the

 suggestion my wife gave, is it

ok with you guys?"

   Ben didn’t know how to explain

to ken that it was that suggestion

 that made in lay down on this bed. 

    "I see nothing wrong with it, but

 my wife is not in support of it, so I

guess is a No."

    "Is ok, am cool with that, let’s

just keep finding a way to go

 around the matter."

    "What if we borrow from  another

bank to buy off the debt then when

 we got hold of our inheritance,

we pay back."

    "That is going to be a long story"

Ken said. I will see you later, he

 left the hospital.

     "Heyy.. Miriam long time no see,

what brings you to this area? One

of the boys said when she was

seen going to her beauty shop.

    "I only got married, I didn’t die

there."

    "Aha, why are you angry at me?,

I only ask you a question."

    "Must you ask question all the

time?"

    "Sorry ooo, I see you are not in

 good mode today, am going to

 see the boss."

    "Say me hi to him."

    "Ok,"

      "Boss, I saw Miriam today at

 her shop, but she didn’t seem

like a happy woman."

    "And how would you describe

a happy woman? Get out of my

way, Miriam is a big girl now,

she can take care of herself."

    "Ok boss, I told her not to marry

 that guy, now look what he has

turn her into, a saddest, I wanted

 to marry her, but she needed a

rich guy now see yourself."

    "Why are you talking to yourself?"

 the boss ask.

    "Nothing boss."

    "If is about Miriam, is she

 looking horrible?"

    "Looking horrible how?"

    "Yea, because of the way you

are so worried about her one will

 be force to think she is a walking

dead. Hahahaha"

    "Boss that is not funny."

    "Yea, that is why I always tell you

 to forget about her, she is not

into you, let me go and see her."

     "Heyy.. boss, Miriam greeted

and offer him a sit."

      "Hmmm, seeing you in your

shop this days, I hope all is well."

     "Yes.. No…"

     "Ok, yes, no, which one is it?"

    "Is no, all is not well boss, am

 really tired of this whole thing

call marriage."

    "Ok, why don’t you tell me, because

 I have not been married before,

I only have three kids with three

 different women, I don’t know

what it looks like to be married."

     "You have three kids, so where

 are they? Miriam ask, she has

never known the boss to have

 any kids, and that is why she

always thought he is treating her

 like his own daughter even

though she didn’t have parents.

    Where are your three children?

I will like to meet them."

    "The boss took out one stick

 of cigarette and light it, puff the

smoke it into the air.

    This is one secret he has

 always wish to take to his grave,

because he didn’t want Miriam

to know that he is her real father.

He wanted Miriam to be a good

person, that is why he was so

happy when she decide to go

and work as a maid at the

Jackson and to crown his joy,

she even got married to the

son of the wealthiest man in town,

but that is not what happiness

is all about I guess.

    "Boss, you are not saying

 anything, I said I will like to

meet them."

    "And then what? He suddenly

turn to Miriam with a straight face.

What do you want to do with

 them? Do you want to leave

 me too?"

    "Leave you?, am not going

anywhere", Miriam suddenly find

 herself saying this words.

    "Then forget them, they  made

a choice to go with their mother,

so that is no longer my business,

he said even though he knew

 that he was the reason why

they left him.

Enough with my problems,

what are you? What is going on?

     "I don’t know, I hit my husband

 on the head, he is now in the

hospital."

    "Hospital!! and you are here?

, get up quick go to him."

    "Why will I do that?, he almost

 kill me."

    "Kill you? And you didn’t call me?

 let me go there and teach him a

lesson. Wait a minute, when

you say kill you did you mean he

 use a gun or a knife?

     "No… why will he use a gun

on me.?"

    "So how was he trying to kill you?"

    "We were just fighting."

     "Then is not killing, is just

 fighting, you need to go back to

 him, staying here makes you

 look single, and this bad boys

around here will start looking

your way."

    "Why will they do that? And

beside you are always here to

protect me."

    "Yea,… but you see, I might not

 always be available to protect

you the way you think, so is wise

that you go back to your

husband’s house."

    "And that is the problem, my

husband don’t have any house."

    "What do you your husband

don’t have any house? Mr.

Jackson is one of the top

business men in town."

     "Yea, that is what we always

hear, look that is all in paper, in

real life, he has nothing."

     "No, I don’t believe you, I was

doing a research  on him, that

man has a lot of money."

    "Fine, that is what the papers

 will tell you but, he use the

 banks money to run those

businesses, and now that he

 is dead, the bank wants their

money back. And they are about

 to take over the mansion.

My own inheritance in 50million,

but I cannot take it until the

bank’s money is fully paid."

    "What? 50 million, and you

 can’t withdraw because of bank.?"

    "Yes, that is what am saying

and now my husband and I are

having problems"

     "No, that is what I cannot

 accept."

    "What?" Miriam ask.

      "You cannot have problems

with your husband at this time,

50 million!! Do you think is child’s

play to have 50 million even

 though you can’t withdraw

 it now?"

     "So is the money for you?

That is all you care about".
