The truth is that Funke was as confused as Kola was. She had known no man, except her husband, so what could have gone wrong.
Both Kola and Funke appeared shocked! “ What do you mean, Doctor? “ Funke yelled, as she attempted to grab him. “Whose child is he then? “
Who's the father?
Imagine! Which kain qweshun be dat?
Whose child is he???
How can a woman not know the father of her own son?
Kola’s initial shock appeared to be evolving. Beeni! . Into rage, the kind of rage that can turn an otherwise gentle man into a murderer.
The doctor quietly pressed the security alert.
Kola reached out to grab Funke “whose child is he?” “ If you don’t talk now I will beat the life out of you “. Ah ! Funke was “saved by the bell” or should we say “by the alert”.
The truth is that Funke was as confused as Kola was. She had known no man, except her husband, so what could have gone wrong.
Kola was livid, he ordered more tests with the other three, and his fears were confirmed, none of them were his.
The kids were deeply troubled. “ If dad is not our Father then who is?” does that mean their mum has been having extramarital affairs?
Kola left immediately for Nigeria. It was all too much for him. He didn’t even wait to get home he poured it all out on Razaki.. And for the first time in 30 years, Razaki didn’t have anything to say.
Counselling.
I looked across my table at Kola and Funke. They had not been talking to each other. Kola lodged himself into a hotel and Razaki was culled up like a ball in one corner, he had been ill, or at least that was what they said.
‘Okay” I said. “Lets start from the beginning. Kola, how did you meet Razaki?”
The Truth comes out
It turns out that Razaki loved funke but knew that he was not on the same social level with her, so he introduced her to his boss. They got married but Razaki still loved her. When Razaki took funke to baba isale l”ori oke , he confessed his feelings towards her and Baba hatched a plan.
He told Funke that Kola had confessed to him; a while back that he is impotent .He also told her that if she is not smart about it, some other woman will come and take her place in his home and have children for him. The deal was that every night, a masked man will come and have sex with her and before the week runs out she will get pregnant. And it happened every time, but she didn’t know the person and could not even say if it was the same person.
Betrayer Betrayed.
A can of worms was opened in my office that day.
Kola betrayed Funke, he didn’t tell her that he was impotent.
Baba Isale L’ori oke betrayed kola by telling Funke what he had told him in confidence.
Razak betrayed Kola by cutting a deal with baba.
Razak betrayed Funke by masking his face so that she didn’t she was having sex with her husband’s driver.
Funke betrayed Kola because she knew the children were not his, although he knew that as well.
So , Razaki appears to be the father of these children ? Abi?I wish I could say the sessions ended well . They didn’t , because we later found out that Baba Isale l’ori oke , was wearing Razaki’s mask to meet with Funke as well…. Hmmmmm .. It turns out that even Razaki the traitor, was betrayed. This life sef !
