MY WEDDING NIGHT - Episode 5

MY WEDDING NIGHT
(EPISODE 5)
On getting to the police headquarters, i
was taken to the
detective’s office where i stayed and
nervously waited for him while he entered another
office
with the white lawyer.
He came in about fifteen minutes later,
smiling calmly.
“i’m really sorry things got so bad as
to bring you back here. Your husband’s family are
trying
everything possible
to make you pay, but don’t worry,
investigation has
commenced. I’m already working on a
theory. You should also know that i have seized
the
travelling passports of
every one of them that spent the night
in that house. You
shouldn’t worry about anything, the
culprit will be caught. I equally had a good cell
prepared for
you” he said seriously,
while tears dropped from my eyes. I
couldn’t imagine
myself spending the night in a police
cell no matter how comfortable it was made to
look.
“one more thing. I need to hear the
whole truth from you
since you want me by your side. That’s
all i ask” the officer
added curiously, drawing out another shock from
me.
“what do you mean by the whole
truth?” i gasped, while he
smiled.
“you see, that’s one problem with
Nigerian women. You all like keepings secrets
even in a terrible
condition. You have
a cop trying to help you, the least you
can do is to come out
clean with him. I spoke with some of
your colleagues today and their answers were
quite
shocking. Most of them said
that your relationship and marriage to
late Damian wasn’t
ordinary. So you got to tell me things i
need to know since you want me by your side” he
pushed
on while i swallowed
hard and fought with myself.
The officer wanted me to open up
something well buried in
my heart, a secret i told no one. “How do i go
about it?” i wondered.
“i know you didn’t commit the murder
but you have to help
me unravel many things. What made
Damian marry you so
quickly, you guys had just a short Romance and
Mr Damian
i was told messed up a lot of ladies in
the company before
getting to you. Something made him
marry you??, don’t tell
me it was love, i have reason to believe
something else was
involved, even after the threats and
reports you got, never
for a moment did you guys quarrel.
Please don’t use the
love bullshit on me. I need the truth?” he pushed
on
seriously.
There wasn’t any doubt the officer did
a good background
check on me but digging deep into my
relationship with Damian was only going to
deteriorate
matters for me. Some
things are better left buried and
unsaid but looking at his
eyes, i saw curiousity and eagerness
to know all about the hidden truth..
