Story of a Survivor - Season 1 - Episode 23

I smiled with bitterness; I was not expecting
that line of speech from her. That was pure
jealousy. And to be coming from Caroline, I
felt so hurt. For how long had she been feeling
this way towards me? I wondered. Then I
understood what my Dad had meant in my
dream when he said “Caroline is a woman”
Aunty! I said: I want my own share of the
money! That’s all!

Silvia interjected: Aunty, please give her her
own share if that is what she wants!

Shut up your mouth Mumu! (Fool) Caroline
scolded Silvia. You stand there and support
this arrogant Girl! Instead of you to slap her
mouth! Look Derby! This is different from the
fifty thousand naira each that Mr. Chinedu
gave us o! This is not the story of ten talents
o! This one is one talent! And it is in my Bank
account. I am going to invest it for the family!

I have five of you under me and I am going to
take care of you! You all will go back to
School and get education! She was wrong , we
are six under her.

Me, I do not want to go back to School o!
Silvia interrupted.

Shut up! Shut up your mouth Mumu! Caroline
scolded Silvia again. What do you want to do
with your life? You know nothing but to sit at
home all day reading stupid Novels and eating!

But I manage the Shop nah! I over look the
house and run the Shop when you people are
not around! Silvia said.

So that is what you want to do with your entire
life? You think I will continue to feed you your
whole life? You are twenty years old now, all
the Guys that have come chasing you, you
turned them down! I don’t know if you are a
l£sb!an! Virgin Mary!

Pauline Interjected: Stupid Girl! She doesn’t
want to go to school! So what do you want to
do?

I want to go into modeling! Silver blurted
nervously.

Caroline and Pauline started to laugh out loud:
Pauline continued: See who wants to go into
modeling? She mocked: At twenty two years
na now you dey discover your talent? Do you
think modeling is for illiterates? I am sure
these your books are getting into your head,
maybe one of the lead characters in your
books is a model!
