OH LIFE "I MUST SURVIVE" (EPISODE FOURTEEN)

STORY SERIES

…Life in Adia’s home was happy and peaceful. Adia and her four children lived very well. They ate what they pleased. They also dressed well. They did not have to think of what it cost because there was plenty of money to spend.

Adia painted the rooms and bought-fine chairs and new beds. The old wooden beds were given away. The windows had new curtains.

Adia had two servants who helped her to sell in the shops. They also helped her at home. The two servants live in the house with Adia and the children.

The children had almost forgotten that once upon a time they had a father who lived with them in the house. Adia, of course, did not forget. She thought about her husband all the time. She wondered where he was, what he was doing, who was looking after him. She wondered why he did not even look back, why he did not even come one day to see his little children. She was sure that her husband had another reason for leaving me other than the mere coming in of Tesa.

Adia wished her husband can come back home to see them the new surroundings. She wanted him to see them eat well, drew well, and have a lot of money. She wanted her husband to join them and know what it is to be rich.

Eta still went to school. Her dress was new and clean. She wore a new pair of sandals and looked like the daughter of a rich mother.

Adia had taken Tesa to school but she had been told to wait till the beginning of a new school term. Tesa liked very much to go to school because Eta went to school. She and Eta could then play together both at school and at home.

Everyday Tesa walked to the school with Eta. She stopped at the school gate as Eta went in. She saw many children of her age and many older children swinging, riding the wooden horse, skipping, singing and marching. She wanted to be there too.

When she came back from seeing Eta off to school, Tesa went to the shop with Adia. Eta joined them when the school closed for the day.

One morning Tesa went with Eta to school but did not return in time. Adia waited for her, yet she did not come back. She thought that Eta and Tesa were playing on the way. But when she waited and waited and Tesa did not come, she walked to the school. She was hoping to meet Tesa on the way but she saw no one like Tesa. She went into the school to see if she was with Eta still she did not see Tesa. Eta told her that Tesa had turned back at the gate.

Adia was now worried. She ran back home thinking that Tesa might have taken another route home. Again Tesa was not there. Adia was now very alarmed. She raced to the police station and reported. The policeman…to be continued on Saturday.
