Chief Nnamdi sat opposite Mrs. Chioma in the sitting room, the children were fast asleep, and Nnena was in the kitchen preparing the breakfast, Chief Nnamdi was holding a sport newspaper just then he called Nnena from the sitting room.

“Nne! Nnena!!” He screamed her name with some kind of manly

vocals.

“Sir!” Nnena responded from the kitchen as she was trying to

make her way to the sitting room.

“Nnena, please help to prepare a very hot coffee.” Chief Nnamdi

demands

“Okay sir, Nnena replied as she reluctantly vanished from the

sitting room.

Nnena came out from the kitchen with a tray on her hands, there she placed the kettle of coffee and a glass cup. She served Chief Nnamdi the coffee as Chief Nnamdi drank the coffee within a twinkle of an eye. Some minutes later; Chief Nnamdi feels that his stomach is ruminating, he feel some stomach pains but within a twinkle of an eye, he fall on the gold colored tile, he held his stomach tight, he was groaning in pains, some seconds later he started vomiting blood from his mouth, Mrs. Chioma and Nnena quickly help him up as they quickly rush him into the car, Mrs. Chioma drove the car, Nnena held the chief tight as she was pleading to the unconscious Chief not to gave up as a ghost, Mrs. Chioma drove slowly for some minutes, later she was struck into a traffic, the hold-up stay as long for like thirty minutes.

********

{FEW MINUTES LATER}

The doctor came out from the ward; he told Mrs. Chioma and I the shocking but true news; “We are sorry ma, we lost the chief and he dies of poison.” The doctor said pitifully as he tried to makes his way to his ward.

Yes it was nothing but damm truth! I could witness the Chief death, I could see the Chief been dressed by the nurses like that of ghosts. Is he really dead? Yes he is no more breathing and he has given up to ghost; I could witness those professional nurses inserting cotton wool into Chief Nnamdi noses and ears. They place his lifeless body on the stretcher as they were ready to transport his breathless body to the mortuary.  

Now that means my only hope of surviving has gone, the only person that care and cherish me is gone, my father, mother, my best friend and counselor has gone, I could vividly remember that I served him the coffee he drank last and the doctor confirmed and announced that the chief dies from poison. My innocent heart struck like lightening when I recall this, I could feel my heart beating faster

than a ringing bell. “Hope this would result to my doom? How am

I going to defense this lies that looks very alluring to my personality?  Hope I would end up rotting in jail?” Those are the

rhetorical questions that are barging into my mind.

 Mrs. Chioma and Chiamaka were crying and vociferating incessantly, they were rolling on ground, they look innocent about the chief death, Chinendu and Obinna are manly as usual, they lean at a wall, they were both wearing averting and sad faces, but they were not crying. Mrs. Chioma couldn’t believes her beloved husband was been transported into the mortuary, she follows the stretcher with tears flowing freely from her eyes, the nurses were trying to console her but all their effort were to no avail, they try to console the new widow but that make her weeps more. Mrs. Chioma sight me crying and sobbing, she was so angry and irritated, she later opts for the hospital rest room, to do what? Who knows…

**********

{FEW MINUTES LATER}

A team of policemen drove into the hospital premises, they all jumped down from their Toyota Hilux car, they were all carrying gun as some of the policemen walked into the hospital.

“Good day ma, we are very sorry for the loss, may God forgive all

his sin.” An inspector who heads the team of police uttered

sympathizing.

“Thank you officer, you are welcome.” Mrs. Chioma replied

sobbing.

“Please ma, we are here to do our job, where is the criminal who

murdered the chief?” The inspector asked as he readjusts his

pistol gun.

“She is leaning at the wall over there.” Mrs. Chioma announced

as she was stretch her finger pointing directly to me.

“Thank you very much ma.” The inspector appreciates as he and

his colleagues opt for where I was leaning.

I looks up to confirmed that Mrs. Chioma is directly pointing to me, I wasn’t surprise because I know that the crime was very alluring to my personality, even if the issue was broadcasted, 99% of the people will acknowledge that I killed the chief, I knew I am guilty for serving the chief the coffee, but I knew inside the innermost part of me that the crime may be very alluring to me but it was not genuine.

{PRESENT}

“Arrest her!..” Mrs. Chioma yelled as she restrained her statement.

“She murdered my darling husband, she makes me a widow.”

Mrs. Chioma submits her words as she broke down in more tears.

.

Obinna who could trust me now fear me like death, “yes, she serves the coffee, no one else.” That was the thought that keeps on circulating his heads. He has lost the trust and confidence he has in me, he looks me from head to toes but it seems he did not see me but he saw a poisonous snake ready to slay, he seems to acknowledge that I am more dangerous than devil itself, he fear me more than death.

.

True to be talk, I was the only one in the kitchen on that very day, I didn’t leave the hot coffee in the kitchen, I stay glued to the kitchen, Mrs. Chioma on the other hand did not stand up from where she sit before I left for the kitchen, she was watching a program. The chief drank the tea and he started groaning in pains, I serves the coffee and no one is with me in the kitchen, how come is the coffee poisoned? I am as confused as you were.

.

{PRESENT}

The policemen handcuffed me as they commands me to follow them, I looks into the eyes of Mrs. Chioma but all I could see was my hatred, I looks into that of Chinendu and Chiamaka but I saw the same hatred as that of their mother, lastly, I looks into the eyes of Obinna but all I could see there was a ranging disappointment, I burst out in tears as I gently follows the policemen into their Toyota Hilux Car.
