OH LIFE "I MUST SURVIVE" (EPISODE TWENTY- FOUR)

STORY SERIES

...Adia went to the hospital the day after Amoda told her his secret. Amoda was looking very happy and well.

“Tell me, Adia,” Amoda said. “After listening to my story and the wicked things I have done do you still feel like living with me?”

“Why not?” answered Adia. “The past is gone and you have learnt your lesson. You have also paid dearly for all the wrongs. We should let by-gone to be by-gone. We all make mistakes”

Amoda was in the hospital for a long time because of the wound in his chest. The doctor said that he was very lucky because the wound was only one inch away from where his heart was. A rib however had been broken and this was going to take a long time to mend.

Adia and the children kept coming every day to see Amoda. Adia told Tesa that Amoda was her father but Tesa did not really understand it. She was not sure if it was the same father that her mother had told her about. It did not matter to her anyway because she was happy. It even appeared that she was Adia’s favorite.

Tesa soon started to go to school. She was very pleased to be in the company of not only Eta but also of many other children. She learnt to sing new songs. These songs were different from the beggar’s song which she sang with her mother by the roadside.

One day Adia was sitting by Amoda’s bed in the hospital. Tesa and Eta were sitting by her. A nurse came along to Amoda’s bed. She took a card and looked at it for some time. She then told Adia, “Your husband will be going home soon,” Adia was glad. The nurse saw the two girls. They were smart in their dresses.

“Hullo sweet things”, she said to them. She stretched out her hand to Eta. Eta took the hand and smiled. But when the nurse did the same to Tesa, Tesa turned away.

Adia quickly got up and held Tesa to herself. “What’s the matter Tesa? Why don’t you shake the nurse’s hand? Don’t you know that she has been taking care of daddy? Now be a good girl and say hello.”

“No! No! I won’t” Tesa cried. “She drove me away” the nurse was surprised. She had never met the little girl. “You are making a mistake my dear girl. I have never met you.”

“You have, you have,” Tesa said still crying. “You told me to get a taxi and take care of my mother to the hospital. You didn’t help me.”

Adia now knew that Tesa was saying something true but she did not yet understand. She knew that Tesa did not forget a face or incident.

When was this Tesa?” Adia asked.

“The day my mother died,” she answered. “She was putting some things into her car. I begged her,”

“Good gracious!” the nurse said.” I remember it all.. to be continued on Tuesday
