Stephanie looked at her husband, expecting him to say something in support of her position on what Tracy had done, and how it may affect everything the ritual stood for, but the man simply wasnโt saying anything.
โHoney, did you hear that Tracy took her phone to the shrine and let Bruce disrupt the process of the rituร l?
โDid you hear that your daughter chose to play with her life because of a man that will still end up leaving her when the pressures come down on her?
โAm I the only one that is concerned that my daughter is so fลลlish that sheโs playing with her future because of a man that will most likely not marry her?โ Stephanie complained.
Her husband made to respond, but Stephanie didnโt like the look on his face, and cut him short instantly, surmising that he was going to say something she wouldnโt like.
โYou know what? I think I shouldnโt be talking to you because I know youโll certainly not say anything helpfulโ she said ร ngrily, shutting her husband up.
Then she turned to Bruce who was standing beside Tracy and looked at him from head to toe before she spoke.
โBruce or whatever you are called, the only reason I am going to be civil with you today is because you are the only one who has tried so far to stay back after having your marriage ceremony with Tracy disrupted
โBut you have to understand that I have but one child, and will diรซ having just her, so I wonโt stand by and watch you wreck havoc in her life with your overzealousness
โMy daughterโs mental health and well being is of paramount interest to me, and I wonโt let you come here to make a mess of a rituร l that is known to be the only efficacious way of taking away the tรดrments that has been in my lineage, since anyone can remember.
โSome things are deeper than you see, and until you have a full understanding of what is going on in someone else’s life, you have no right whatsoever to meddle in peopleโs affairs, especially when youโre just an outsiderโ Stephanie said, bent on sending Bruce away, since she was so sure that heโd still leave Tracy eventually.
โStephanie! Will you keep quiet and allow these children come inside so we can talk like a family?โ Chief Scot thundered, tired of holding it in, while she made things more complicated for her daughter, and made a fลลl of herself
โThatโs the point. I need us to talk like a family, and think of how to appease Ozonge to be able to let Tracy go back to the shrine for the rituร l to be completed.
โAnd thatโs why I need him to step out and let us talk as a family, without an outsider who is beginning to annoy me with the smile on his face, while I talk about something very importantโ Stephanie spat ร ngrily.
โMa, I think youโre making a mistake by assuming that I am an outsider in a meeting where the issue concerning my wife is to be discussed.
โWe should all quickly go inside and talk about what that crรฃzy wรฏtch doctor nearly did to my wife, and how I was only lucky to have got there in time!
โI will need to be honest with you ma, the only reason I didnโt kรฏll that man, just like I kรฏlled his รชvรฏl owl is because I didnโt want my wife to live with the memory of witnessing me kรฏll a man.
โSo instead of being on the defensive, and making it look like my wife and I have offended the lunร tic, you should appreciate the fact that I didnโt kรฏll him in spite of how I still hurt from the injuries his stupรฎd bird inflicted on me.
โAnd thatโs why I think we should say whatever we have to say quickly to enable return to the city with my wife, get her settled in, and also get to have a doctor take a look at the wounds to enable me resume workโ Bruce said.
โWhat is this one talking about? What rubbish are you spewing? Which mortal is able to get careless in Ozongeโs shrine and get a chance to speak about it?
โHow much more dreaming of kรฏlling the sacred owl? Granted, you have become the first idiรฒt to approach the shrine when the concluding gong had not been sounded, and came out alive
โBut thatโs not enough to begin to brag about things even a new born would know canโt happenโ Stephanie blurted.
โErm maโam, I know that by the virtue of my marriage to your daughter, I have now become your son in-law, but that isnโt enough for you to hurl insรปlts at me.
โWith all due respect, I take exceptions to name callings, especially when it is uncalled forโ Bruce said, truly offended by the womanโs sudden hรดstility.
โMay the gods forbid that I allow you an inch closer to my daughter again, after all you have done to keep her from completing the rituร l, how much more allowing you pay her bride priceโ Stephanie screamed, rolling her hand over her head before snapping her fingers away, as a way of sending an omen she sensed as bad, away from herself.
“Well, that means the gods kept you blind because not only has he paid her bride price already, you have also spent your own part of the money.
“What is wrong with you Stephanie?me You’re beginning to drive me crรฃzy with the things you have been doing in this house, and the manner with which you have chosen to handle our daughter’s predicament.
“This girl has been through a lot, and we have been hoping that she successfully gets married. Now, the gods allowed her find a man that loves her enough to swim against all tides to be with her, and you have suddenly taken the place Uloma, to tรดrment not just your daughter, but the only one that gives happiness.
“Stephanie, do you not know what it means to be in love? Have you forgotten so quickly how we felt back then when we were faced with all the trรฒubles, and how we wished we could run far away?
“Don’t you know that this love that I have for you, is the only reason I haven’t become totally fed up with you?” Chief Scot asked his wife.
“You what? You collected bride price from Bruce when the rituร l was yet k be completed? You started a move that could create a distortion in my lineage’s timeline? Stephanie asked, looking at her husband incredulously.
“Were you expecting that I would stop them from being together? Would you have liked it, if your father came between us?” Chief Scot asked his wife, this time, with an angrier tone.
“I was expecting you to know that letting her complete the rituร l before marrying her off is sacrosanct” Stephanie said, snaring Bruce.
“And why is that mother? To ensure that the cรปrsed chief priest deflowered me, and got a cursed seed implanted in me, just like he said his forefathers did?
“How is a rร pe attempt by an รชvรฏl man, who isn’t just sharing in a cursรจ that has been transferred from one generation to another , but is most likely to be a sibling to his prey, sacrosanct?” Tracy asked, speaking for the first time, and making everyone look at her with mouths wide open.
