90 Meeting Mrs Hembadoom II (2/2)

The woman listened as Sky talked, what a smart young lady, she said to herself,She has a lot of ideas. she herselfhas thought of a few like the stand and expanding but because of lack of funds, she hasn't been able to do anything. And she smiled as the little girl said 'we' in all her sentence.

No it's not rude dear, no need to apologise. I like your ideas but I don't have the funds. And I'm not going to accept your money.

Think of it this way ma'am, it's not my money but an investors money, I like to invest and why not do it here, please ma'am, don't say no...if you do I'll come everyday...even when I'm very big, and I live very far away..I'll bring my assistant too and trust me, he won't let you be until you say yes.

Mrs Hembadoom bust into laughter, ok dear I'll think about it.

There's something else I want to talk to you about ma'am, Sky said as she looked down. I know it's shameful to have a child out of wedlock but I carry mine proudly, it's what I want ma'am, and your son isn't the father but he accepted me and my child. I don't want it to come as a surprise if you find out later that it's Dwayne's child. I can't lie to you about that, the baby is not his. please forgive me.

Mrs Hembadoom took Sky hand in hers and said to her, look at me dear, it's not shameful and I'm not one to judge. At least you want it and you planned it and you can take care of the child. Then it's fine and thank you for telling the truth, and thanks for taking care of my boy, I can see some changes in him.

Awwww thank you ma'am. Sky said as she hugged the woman.

Dwayne has been standing outside the door and heard everything, he's chest tightened as Sky talked about business to his mom, she really is an angel. He went in with the remaining bags from the car.

Sorry I took so long, I had an urgent call.

Mrs Hembadoom watched as Dwayne put the bags on the ground and looked at all the stuff the lady brought.

Sky washed her hand as she stood up and took Mrs Hembadoom's hand and led her to the other table. Now ma'am, please accept these, I couldn't come empty handed, this is my first time here. My mom taught me better.

It's not as if we are having a party, this is too much dear, I can't accept this.

Mom please you have to or she'll cry. She's been tearing up lately, I think it's cause of the pregnancy.

I don't cry Dwayne, liar....I told you I had something in my eyes that day.

How about the other day, when we went to the technician and you saw a man who looked so fine but was walking aimlessly and we found out, he just lost his mind two months ago and he's been like that and can't go to the hospital cause his wife can't afford treatment?

I had something in my eyes too. Sky replied him.

Ok how about when that little girl refused to take money from you and you cried till I took you home..

Dwayne...Mrs Hembadoom said..

signalling her son to stop as she saw Sky's mood changing.

It's not me, it's the baby, that's why I think it's a girl...Sky said...looking away.

Mrs Hembadoom opened the bag and was surprised, the basket was filled with fruits while one bag contained wrappers, Ankara. The other bag contained lace material with matching gele for blouse and the other contained box of jewelries.

My mom helped me pick all these ma'am please don't say no.
