.....I held the box,I didn't know what to do,mother had said it isn't stealing,but then my conscience didn't allow me., somehow I knew she was wrong....

I had taken some clothes and was about walking out,mother would kill you ,a voice whispered to me..am sure you don't want to be homeless, because if you drop that gold box and not do as mother had said,you are as good as dead,the voice said once again,I was trying so much to fight myself,but it wasn't easy....

I have never taken what isn't mine,so I wouldn't start now,I said and walked out of the room....

I got the living room and met mother and Mrs Johnson having a moment,they were chatting and laughing,baby Mimi was sleeping peacefully on the couch close to Mrs Johnson....

We had stayed for about four hours, and mother wasn't ready for us to go,I had to speak,, it's so nice knowing your place ma,I shall come visit you again ma,we would like to be on our way,father would need to take his medication now,i said...

Okay my dear, I'd like to see you around soonest,so I can spend some time with you and baby Bernice,she said..

Okay ma,no probably,I said and thanked her, carrying Mimi on my back preparing to leave.....

Esohe,why the hurry,we just got here naa(after four hours,we just got here?,I thought within),daddy would be fine by himself,let us keep Mrs Johnson company for a while,mother said....

Ohh Mrs Edosa,I really appreciate your kindness,but she's right,Mr Edosa would be missing you three by now,It isn't nice for him to be alone in his State, especially since he has medication to take,he may not be able to freely help himself, some other time you can come be with me, Mrs Johnson said..,

Okay my sister,you have are right, let's start going,take care ohh,but wait oh my sister,are you the only one in this big mansion,mother asked her....

Yes,I was living here with my children, but they recently went to UK for their education,she said....

Oh they are in UK with their father,mother asked further.... 

Oh no,my husband passed two years ago,she said....

Oh sorry madam,I understand your pain,I understand what it feels like to loss a husband,but don't worry, I would come sometimes to keep you company and even sleep over mother said...

Mrs Edosa,you have no idea what it's like to loss a husband,your husband is still Very much alive and I pray you don't experience it anytime soon,but all the same thanks for your concerned,, Mrs Johnson said...

She gave mother 8,000 for our transport,and we were very grateful...

Please my sister,can I take this,mother asked pointing to the pack of juice she had been drinking on the table.....

Of course, you can, Mrs Johnson said,I was quite embarrassed...

Immediately we came out of Mrs Johnson's compound,mother started....

Young woman what was the meaning of that,she asked me angrily....

I don't understand ma,I replied politely...

Why did you make me look stupid, asking us to leave like I am your daughter,i should say when we leave and not you,mother said angrily....

Am sorry mother,I was only concerned about father, he's home alone,I don't think Osato would be back from school yet and he will need help for his medicine,I said politely....

And you don't think as his wife I know that,the next time you pull that kind of stunt, you'd be sorry,she angrily walked away, while I walked behind....

She didn't help me with anything,I was hoping she'd carry her grand daughter, Mimi was on my back,the bag of clothes was heavily on one hand,and my handbag containing Mimi's things was on the other hand,,of course I dare not complain......

We boarded a public vehicle,and everyone was nice, iyeomomo dhor, careful,bend down because of baby oh, beautiful baby,,fine pikin,see as the baby hair long,and all other caring and complimentry words,but mother wouldn't even say anything nor assist,you wouldn't even know we were together.....

A woman alighted soon,and paid for me,me and that iyeomomo,she said as she alighted...
.
thank you ma,I appreciated her...

We soon got to our junction,and we alighted and went home....

Father was so happy to see us,he had greatly missed baby Eloghosa,I handed her to him,and quickly ran to the kitchen to heat up the food so that father could eat and take his drugs....

Osato came back from school later,mother brought the bag of clothes I had brought from Mrs Johnson and kept in my room out...

Osato, select anyone from those clothes you like, mother said...
 

I was shocked,and to think without asking me.

Osato opened the bag and she was very happy,I mean those were classy and designer clothes so different from what we usually wear,to my greatest surprise,she said she loves all of them...

Mummy these clothes are too fine ohhh,I love everything, anyone that is bigger I would give aunty tailor to help me out,these clothes are wonderful,she said....

I was waiting to hear what mother would say...

Okay,no problem my dear,,,just look for a top for madam. she said, raising her nose to my direction to indicate she was referring to me,so that it doesn't appear I am wicked,she said...

Mother must I give her,these clothes are for big girls,she complained....

I was looking at mother and daughter, especially Osato who thinks she's a big girl and I who is two years older than her isn't.....

Osato finally brought out one top reluctantly and was stretching it towards me, don't bother I said walking inside...

Will you come back here,mother shouted....

What's all these shouting for itohan,father asked her,but she didn't even mind him

I went to her angrily...

Osato walked pass me going Inside hissing

Where's the gold you took,I hope you took out least three,go and bring them quickly,so that I can look for buyer immediately...she said..

I didn't take any, because Mrs Johnson didn't ask me to,I don't know how you came about the idea that taking from the rich when one isn't given isn't called stealing but taking,what my late mother and uncle thought me is never to collect anything that isn't mine and wasn't given to meeeeeeeee

Tarrrrrr,I heard a sound slap on my check...

How dare you,how dare you teach me what is right or wrong,you head is not completely dried of Virginia fluid and you dare think you know better, didn't your mother and uncle thought you never to run after a man,and not to open your legs until you are married?,that one didn't enter your head, it's the one I asked you to do you remembered you mother and uncle's advice mother shouted at me,,,,,she was angry..

I was already in tears....

What's the meaning of this itohan,father asked confused as he doesn't seems to comprehend what was happening...

Mother asked me to steal from Mrs Johnson,and I refused,I told father crying....

What!!!, itohan,you raised your hand on a nursing mothers because she refused to steal, while father was talking she walked out hissing.... itohan, itohan, itohan,father called but she didn't answer,,,oh,this is what wheelchair has reduced me to,I have become a voiceless man in my home, Itohan now disrespects me,ohhhhh,,, father was getting emotional...

Father it's fine, please do not worry I am okay,I said to him..

My child,do not throw your dignity to the mud, stealing no matter how big or small is wrong,no matter how tempting,you must never take anything when you aren't given father said.. ..

Thank you father,I said hugging him...
...

Mimi who was with father cried out...

I think the baby needs you,she must be hungry,he said handing her to me while I went inside to breastfeed her....

As I was breastfeeding Mimi inside,a text message came to my phone,,,it was Mrs Johnson,,

I couldn't believe what the message says..,
