MY KING SAW MY STAR - 88 PREGNANT FOR A GHOST 5.

I think you should seat down Mr. and Mrs Odo Nwaiwu, I know how this sounds, but its true, Ayanna tried to calm the now disoriented couple.

No! nooo!!….you sure don’t know what you are talking about princess, why…. why do you reopen old wounds like this? I mean …. can’t you ….have pity on our old hearts? Mrs Odo asked almost screaming.

Mr Odo held his wife and dragged her to a seat then turning to look at the Princess and the Prince, he observes them for a few second and then he said, I think you don’t know what you are saying our son died over four decades ago, its not him that you got a message from maybe some one fake who knows we are about to leave for our home town and wants to scam us …..

Mr Odo please sit down, you will need it Prince Martin said ….. luckily you know am a busy person and I will never be caught in something that could waste my precious time. You must have heard about my daughter’s abilities, after she woke up from a very long coma?, you should have heard about it because the king his majesty declared a holiday for an entire week.

Yes we heard of her recovery and we participated in the festivities but we were among the unlucky ones because we didn’t get to see her and she didn’t visit our community yet, Mr Odo explained.

Then relax for there is more where that @ message is coming from, I will let my daughter continue from here ….then Prince Martin said.

Mama and Papa you should be happy today, not frightened for I bring you good news, Ayanna started. This got Mrs Odo curious and she stretched her neck to check the door Princess don’t tell me we buried someone else … and my son is outside??….. Mrs Odo asked.

Hmmm! no madam, you buried your son, but your son could not move on to the after life, and there is a reason for that ….. Ayanna checked to see that she had their undivided attention.

Do you mean to say?…. our son is still here in this world? I mean his spirit did not move on? ….but… Mr Odo asked

Your son is right here Mr and Mrs Odo Nwaiwu and you know the reason why he can’t leave…. Ayanna had their full attention as they stared at them selves.

We know? ….. but I don’t know…. what are you saying? I mean what are you trying to tell us? Mr Odo inquired.

Think back to the day you received news that your son died, he was here right? he wanted to desperately tell you something? am I correct sir? Ayanna asked.

Mr. Odo still remembered that day like it was yesterday, how can he forget that day? it still hunted him, one minute he was with his son then the next second he received news that he had died and he was about to tell him about something important, he himself is a traditional man, he understood from the incidents of that day that his son had died earlier on but came over to tell him something but he couldn’t finish as people were coming to inform him of his son’s death, so his son quickly left, all this he realised days after going through the incident in his mind, his sons ghost visited him but could not tell him something vital… Princess you are correct you know, he did come to visit me to tell me something but then, he suddenly left not long afterward I had visitors who came to inform me of his fatal accident and death.

Mama and Papa your son is here right now! Ayanna declaration.

What!! he … heeee….. oh my God! Junior is here ? looking everywhere. Mrs Odo asked.

Yes! he is here and he has something to tell you. He is sitting over there Ayanna pointed to a single seat close to the dinning place.

The couple gasped! what??? when he was alive he liked sitting there too, he said it will allow him to hit the food when served faster! Mr Odo explained.

My son! we missed you, you know Mr Odo said to his son’s direction.

I miss you too mum and dad Odo junior replied.

He says he misses you too Ayanna told them.

Speak your message I will relate it to them Ayanna encouraged.

Odo junior then started the story of how he met Izogie and how he tried to introduce her to his parent but when he tried to find out how he can do it, his father told him he can’t marry a Benin woman, that he would inform the uncle to organise a wife from the village for him he even ask that if I was ready I should help him write a letter to my uncle but I never did, but I did something elseI went to the lady whose parents also did not accept, since we loved each other so much we then decide ….. we decided to use …use pregnancy

At this the couples eyes opened wide…what is he saying? They asked.

Let him continue, Ayanna cajoled.

We tried so much but we didn’t succeed the day I was killed in that accident I went to meet with her and I got her pregnant. He waited for Ayanna to finish telling them what he said and watched their reactions.

Bia he impregnated someone? Mrs Odo asked?

Yes he did Ayanna answered.

He impregnated someone… hey! hey!! heyyy!!! I am grandma!

Papa Junior did you hear that you are a grand father.

Where is my wife and baby? she asked jumping up.

Laughing Ayanna answered babies mama.

Inukwa babies? how? did he return to still get her pregnant again?

No mama the lady Izogie had twins, and they are boys, their names are Osaro and Osaze, Ayanna said.

Mr Odo Nwaiwu jumped up, looking at the direction where his late son Junior was seated he started to hail him, Junior, Junior! my son you did not fire one but two at once, agile boy ah! So where are these boys and their mother now? how can we meet them?

They must be grown men now, are you sure we will be accepted? Mrs Odo asked, the uncertainty of the unknown reaction from them was diluting their joy.

We have to come here first to clear the things with you so we can all go and meet the lady after.

We will leave now since its late but we will be here in the morning so we can all go and see them, Odo junior will direct us to their resident, will that be okay with you? Ayanna asked.

Yes! yes!! we will be ready, Mr Odo agreed.

We will be going then, see you in the morning.
