Nneka faced Maria curiously
‘your father has…..’
‘dont worry grandma, i wont let it
happen.’ Maria said bravely.
Nneka jumped up excitedly
‘what do you mean you wont let that
happen? Thats the best news i’ve heard
since this year!’ Nneja said happily.
Maria was suprised ‘grandma, are you
happy about such a thing?’ she asked
‘of course dear! Arent you happy? You
are finally going to have another
mother!’ she said
Maria was kindha angry now. She had a

‘Grandma, thats an insult to mother. Her
soul wont rest in peace if she finds out
