C13 CHAPTER 13

It was around eight clock in the morning, all the workers in Somia's uncle's house had cleaned everywhere and they had been well tied up. His wife got down to the living room, wearing a outfit and carrying a designer bag also wearing designer shoes. She was going straight to the kitchen.

The workers in the kitchen were doing different activities, some were cleaning the cabinet and the floor when some were cooking another food for themselves, the other workers and the boys at the back.

Somia's uncle's wife entered the kitchen, standing at the entrance of the kitchen and faced the head of the chef.

"I hope you have pack the food that order you to pack for my husband and you have put it inside his car?"

"Yes Ma! We have done that!" The lady replied with lower voice.

"Am going out now and will be back very soon, so make sure that everywhere is clean as it is now and you should have prepare lunch ready before I come back including my husband own too!"

"Yes ma!!! I heard what you said and we will do that!"

"Good!! Take care of youselves!!!" She turned back and leaving the kitchen. Somia's uncle too was just coming down to the living room when his wife got there, he was carrying office case and wear official outfit.

"You are done, I will be on my way no!" She just took a step when her husband called her back and looking at her outfit.

"Which kind of outfit is this that you are wearing like all those market women. Am not sure am the one that brought this for you!, see at it be. The style is poor and the material is just somehow!" Complaining with anger and his wife was just looking at him with kind of eye. She let him land finished before she talked.

******

His wife got down to the living room with the same cloth in her hand and came down to the living room to meet her husband and showed him the cloth. He just bought the cloth for her and some other clothes too.

"I see that they had did same thing to you too my love!, that what you ordered is not the same thing that they will brought for you. I know that you didn't check them because all of them were sealed and packed very well. If not you will have know that this cloth is not good and you will have return it, this cloth-----" He stopped her.

"Are you telling me that I bought a bad cloth, mean that I don't know what I bought right!. You don't ever use to appreciate something that someone tried to do for you, you will see complain on it, if it's not the style there will be a complain on the texture. You are just a complaining woman!!"

"Look at the cloth, touch it. You too will see what am saying not that I don't appreciate it. It's others that I love and for me to bring only this one here for you to see that mean it's not good and for you to return it on time. Also it's the only one that you order, and that is how they use to do its not want you order that they use to bring so that is why I brought it here to show you!" raising the cloth up.

"Don't show me anything! Just always make someone to be regretting of buying something for you and with hundred thousand of naira that spent to order this cloth. Saying that may be it's not what I ordered that they bought, do you know what I ordered!" His wife breath in and folding the cloth back.

"Answer me now!, do you know or see what I ordered?"

"Am sorry! I should have keep it with myself, don't be angry!" Said with lower voice, looked at him and going back upstairs.

"Let me continue enjoying my movie! Just came and wanted to spoil my day!"

As his wife finished remembering him, she looked at him from head to toes with annoying mood and angry eye. She turned back and going out of the house, she intentionally wore the cloth for him to see it. So for like three months ago that he had bought it for her, she didn't wore it because it was not good but she decided to wear it today when her husband too was at home and to see it.

"I should have listen to her that time, this cloth is annoying and really belittle her as my wife. When she come back she has to throw away that cloth. What a shit!" Said with loud voice and going out. As the door opened and closed, his own personal driver ran to him collected the bag and going to the car.

His boys were under a hut standing alone at the front, they were just there enjoying themselves and eating. They greeted Somia's uncle as they saw him entering his and he replied by doing sign to them with his hand, entered into the car and driving out by the driver.
