๐ซ๐ The Other Woman Episode Fifteen:
Jackie saw Joe's eyes turn red with indignation and noticed the moment he moved, charging towards Nkem and knew what was about to go down.
She got up from the ground quickly and as soon as Nkem stood up, Jackie saw Joe's hand move in a flash, sending a slร p to Nkem.
Nkem managed to dodge the first slap and when Joe sent the second one, Jackie was already positioned between them, blocking the slaps that followed from reaching Nkem.
By the time Joe realized that none of the slaps had touched Nkem, because of the fact that Jackie had been blocking the slaps with her handbag. He became so enraged that he could have expended his frustrร tion on Jackie, the one who prevented his hands from touching Nkem, but the doctor and nurses had already rushed to hold him down.
โYou can't let them go Joe. These two รชvรฏl women who could work hand in hand to kรฏll mama cannot be left to go. You must get them arrested at once
โOh mama! It's so painful she had to diรซ this way Joe. And as her in-law, I'm going to ensure that her Killers don't go free, whether you agree to do the needful or notโ Mandy lamented.
โIt's okay ma'am, you can calm down. The old woman is lucky enough to have got help as promptly as she did.
โWho ever it is that tried to kรฏll mama, messed with the ventilator, ensuring that she wasn't getting oxygen.
โShe would have died of asphyxiation if we hadn't arrived the very minute we did, to get the ventilator helping her lungs with both oxygenation and ventilation again.
โThe oxygen supply was tampered with, so her lungs were out of oxygen supply, and her brain would have shut down after a few more minutes if that bell hadn't called our attention.
โBut right now, she's stable, and would be okay pretty soon. She only passed out now because of the stress her experience placed on her brainโ the doctor explained.
Joe's eyes flew open in delightful surprise as he heard what the doctor said and he rushed to the bed at once.
“Forget about the arrest Mandy, I'll do the needful after my mother gets out of this place. She'll tell me why Nkem wanted to kรฏll her,even when she had been advocating for her, in recent times.
“I'll stay here with Farida until mama wake up, and I'll be able to talk to her, and know exactly what happened” Joe said
โCalm down Sir, you're going to have to calm down. For now, we'll need to place mama under strict surveillance and monitoring.
โShe may not be able to cope with another dilemma if something goes wrong again, so we have to be sure that whoever it was that made that bad move against this woman, won't be able to have access to her again.
โI don't know what is going on in your family right now, but as your family doctor, I'm going to advise that you keep your two wives and every other relative away from here for nowโ the doctor told Joe before he asked everyone but Joe to step out of the room.
Nkem walked out of the room glad to know that her quick intervention had saved Mama's life. She was in tears as she reminded Jackie that she was right about deciding to visit the hospital immediately.
โI told you Jackie! I told you to allow me visit the old woman. Just imagine what would have happened if I hadn't arrived when I did?
โSo Mandy really wanted to kรฏll Mama? And to think that she had the audacity to ask Joe to arrest us, wishing the old woman deรฅd alreadyโ Nkem told her friend.
โYou're so right about your premonitions that made you want so bรฃdly to visit mama, but the fact that the woman could have been kรฏlled today, brings me to wonder if the one who wanted to kรฏll her, had a hand in what happened to her, that brought her to the hospital in the first place.
โCoukd that rรถbbery have been staged? And if what I'm thinking is what it is, then Mandy is up to no goodโ Jackie said.
โErm, I'm trying to understand what you're saying, the dots aren't connecting rightly though, because if Mandy tried to kรฏll mama earlier, it could mean that she was trying to keep her out of her way or to keep her from saying something.
โSo what could she be trying to keep mama from saying? They have never been close, so I know mama won't be having any secrets she'd love to keep hiddenโ Nkem noted.
โI'm thinking of two possibilities, mama found out about something she doesn't want Joe to hear about, something like everything about how you two arranged to get Farida in his room that night, or because Mama is still trying to keep Martha with Joe, making her see the woman as a threร t to her hopes of taking over everythingโ Jackie said.
โBut what will she lose if Joe knows we arranged Farida for him? Wouldn't it only get Joe more angry at me?โ Nkem asked.
โIt would, but it would also make Joe lose trust for Farida and Mandyโ Jackie said.
โWhatever it is Jackie, I'm so glad that we were able to save mama. And thank you Jackie, I may have had to save the old woman at a very terrible cost.
โIf you hadn't been there, then Joe would have surely made me lose this pregnancy with his sรจnseless outburstโ Nkem said.
โIt's okay my dear. I just had to do what I could because I knew the chances of running into that despรชrado was very high.
โAnd knowing how mร d she must be to know that you're pregnant now, I expected that she could try to get physical with you.
โWhat I didn't expect was that Joe could be so mร d he'd want to hit you. So I had to do all I could to ensure he didn't hit you for real because I know for sure that getting you to forgive him and accept him back when the time comes, would be hard if he hit youโ Jackie said as they walked towards their car.
โDon't make laugh Jackie, Joe and I are history already. I'm never ever going to get back with him again. I'm so done with himโ Nkem said with a frown
โKeep deceiving yourself Nkem, keep letting the lie Mandy wants you to believe grow in your heart, when you know you won't ever be thrown away from your home forever.
โYou and I know that Joe can't be blamed for all he has done so far because you orchestrated everything that is going on.
โI do not want to keep blaming you for it, but there's no one who wouldn't have seen the desperรฅtion in Mandy as she urged you to get her daughter in bed with your husband.
โI tried to warn you, but I guess the human nature that makes it hard for us to recognize when we're just one strike away from breaking the heavy log we've been cutting for so long, didn't let you hold on a little longer.
โAnd so my dear friend, it'll be in your interest to remember that you fetched the ant infested wood into your house yourself, and you have absolutely no right to blame the precious wood in your house for getting eaten by the ants.
โJoe is a man, and we both know that he never had any other experience with any woman before he married you.
โHe had been faithful to you these past twenty years and since he neither knows how to play the double game, nor had any sรจxual dating experience with a much younger girl before, the ecstasy of the new experience is bound to make him carried away!
โFarida is a very beautiful and young girl, I don't know what you were thinking of when you imagined that things would ever be the same after he had a feel of what it means for a man to be with a girl with both youthful body and moves.
โPlease purge your heart of all the bitterness against him, and understand that things wouldn't have been this messy, if you hadn't done what you didโ Jackie told her friend as they sat in the car.
โWell, I never looked at it in that light. But even at that, did he have to get so vรฏolรซnt with me? He could have hit me real bad if you hadn't saved the day
โHe didn't even remember it was me, the very same one he said he could dรฏe for, when he was aiming to hit me as much as he wanted toโ Nkem complained.
โMy friend, you seem to have forgotten that in his eyes back there, you were trying to kรฏll his mother when he arrived!
โFrom his own point of view, his mother was already deรฅd, and Nkem, if you were in his shoes, you'd want to also stranglรจ the person that supposedly killรชd your motherโ Jackie said.
โWhatever it is Jackie, I'm glad that I was able to save mama, and I'm super grateful that you saved me from losing the one thing that matters to me, while I was at it.
โShall we go home already? I'm famishedโ Nkem said and Jackie smiled at her, started the car, and pulled out of the parking lot.
The friends drove towards Jackie's house where Nkem had a really nice meal, before she got driven back to her house in the evening
