ECHOES OF THE PAST: SEASON 1 EPISODE 15(finale)

SEASON ONE
EPISODE FIFTEEN- FINAL EPISODE
***
MR LEWIS RESIDENCE
(MRS EDNA’S ROOM)
:
Mrs Edna sat on the edge of her bed with her phone placed to her ear. She was making a call.
‘’Yes, her name is Beryl, Beryl Scott,’’ She was saying.
‘’I know her ma, you are on the right track coz I also need her for my revenge mission,’’ Raymond said from the other end.
‘’Good, just make sure you abduct her, then kill her in three days but make her suffer before the final execution, understood?’’
‘’Sure ma, always at your service,’’ Raymond said confidently.
‘’Good, I’ll deposit some money into your account for a start.’’
‘’That will be great.’’
‘’Raymond?’’
‘’Ma!’’
‘’I don’t need excuses, I need a clean and perfect job.’’
‘’I will give you the best, trust me.’’
‘’I trust you,’’ Mrs Edna smiled and ended the call happily. ‘’Let’s see who wins dear Gavin,’’ she said to herself and stared into the space…
:
Beryl decided not to head home straight but rather go to the cemetery. She usually goes there to sit by her father’s grave to cry each time she felt heartbroken. She felt life was being very unfair to her, little did she know that she was in for a bigger and tougher challenge that might either get her killed or deeply wounded…
:
REXS’ OFFICE
:
Gavin walked in, looking ruffled.
‘’Guy, what’s up?’’ Rex asked and looked up from the system he was working on.
‘’Beryl is nowhere to be found. I have searched everywhere,’’ Gavin said tiredly and sat on the chair opposite him.
Rex glanced at his wristwatch, it read 3:15pm. ‘’The last time you left here, you told you going to see her.’’
‘’I did, I saw her but now she’s gone,’’ he sighed and placed his head on the table in front of him.
‘’This is serious o, where could she be?’’ Rex asked rhetorically.
:
TIME CHECKED 5:45PM
:
Beryl walked out sadly through the gate of the cemetery. She felt very tired and weak due to hunger and too much crying. As she walked along the lonely streets, a car honked behind her, thus making her stop and turn.
The car pulled to a stop right beside her and the left door opened, then a young man whose body structure looked familiar came out.
‘’Who are you?’’ Beryl asked as fear began to creep into her. She had always gone to the cemetery often times and no car was always seen around there after five pm.
‘’I am your worst nightmare, Beryl. I knew you would be here after being absent in your office and at home. I have missed your warmth and tonight will be a very happy reunion for us both,’’ the person said and pulled off his specs.
‘’Raymond!’’ Beryl gasped in shocked and was about screaming for her but a huge hand covered her face and everything blacked out.
:
MR SCOTT’S RESIDENCE
:
Mrs Laura Scott kept on glancing at the wall clock and dialling Beryl’s number. It read 7:45pm and Beryl was yet to be back.
‘’She never stays out this late, I have to…’’ She paused and stood up as a scream from Cheryl interrupted her.
‘’Mom! He’s going to kill me,’’ Cheryl shouted.
‘’Oh my goodness, what is going on?’’ Mrs Laura thought and ran upstairs.
On getting upstairs, she could only hear Cheryl’s screams faintly. There were traces of blood on the tiled floor.
‘’Cheryl!’’ She screamed and made to run to her room but a hand held her firmly from behind, then a substance was placed on her nose which left her unconscious.
:
TWO WEEKS LATER
MR LEWIS RESIDENCE
:
It’s been up to two weeks and yet no sign of Beryl anywhere. The time read 6:45am and Gavin was standing in front of his dad in the siting room with his hands glued to his travelling box and suitcase.
‘’Where do you think you’re going to?’’ his father asked while the mother just sat quietly and watched.
‘’To find my missing rib, dad,’’ Gavin replied.
‘’At where?’’ The father pressed further.
‘’Come on dad,’’ Gavin said irritatingly and released his box and suitcase. ‘’That’s a useless question,’’ he said and threw his hands in the air.
‘’Since when did…’’ the father stood up and started to say but a knock on the door interrupted him, so he swallowed hard and turned to face the door. ‘’Come in.’’
The door opened, then Ethel and her mother walked in.
‘’Wow!’’ Mrs Edna smiled and stood up to hug Ethel and the mother. ‘’What a surprise.’’
‘’Yes!’’ Mrs Veronica said sharply and sat down. ‘’Without wasting time, I will hit the nail on the head. When will the marriage preparations begin?’’ she inquired insolently.
‘’Marriage preparations?’’ Gavin and his father asked in unison.
‘’Yes, marriage preparations,’’ Mrs Veronica repeated. ‘’My daughter can never have a bastard child.’’
‘’I laugh a lot madam but that doesn’t mean you should come to my house in the early hours of the morning to say nonsense. My son isn’t what you think,’’ Mr Lewis defended.
‘’I know,’’ Mrs Veronica chuckled. ‘’But first, let my daughter tell us who impregnated her.’’
Mr Lewis heaved a sigh and turned to face Ethel who stood with folded arms. ‘’Young lady, who impregnated you?’’ he asked.
‘’Gavin,’’ Ethel replied and looked down while her mother brought out a white sheet from her handbag, then handed it to Mr Lewis for clarification.
Gavin who had been silent roared into laughter.
‘’Shut up you fool,’’ the father shouted while Gavin obeyed immediately. ‘’You are a disgrace, son, I can’t believe this.’’
‘’I am not responsible dad,’’ Gavin defended.
‘’Stop talking nonsense, this DNA test result confirms everything.’’
‘’The result is fake dad, believe me,’’ he said and moved closer to the father. ‘’I was diagnosed of low sperm count which means I can never father a child.’’
‘’What!’’ the dad exclaimed as everyone’s mouth opened wide in shock…

GOLDEN FOODS EATERY
:
Ethel moved closer to Gavin and placed a hand across his shoulder.
‘’Surprised?’’ she asked, smiling like one who had just won a jack pot.
Gavin ignored her and shrugged her hands off his shoulder. ‘’Don’t you dare embarrass me, got it?’’ he said with eyes filled with fury.
‘’What is going on here?’’ Beryl inquired.
‘’He’s my fiancé and we’re engaged to be married,’’ Ethel boasted like a proud peacock. ‘’Or, didn’t he tell you?’’ she added and smiled as her mother winked at her.
‘’Let’s get out of here, please,’’ Gavin pleaded and stretched out to hold Beryl’s hand but she rebuffed him and picked up her phone that was on the table.
‘’Let her be, after all she isn’t a complete woman,’’ Mrs Veronica said to Gavin.
Beryl swallowed hard as Gavin turned to Ethel’s mom. She thought of what she could have possibly done wrong to Ethel and her mom that made them develop hatred for her in a short time.
‘’A complete woman,’’ Gavin muttered. ‘’What do you mean?’’ he questioned. By this time, all eyes inside the eatery rested on them.
Still with a smile on her face, Ethel moved closer to Beryl and placed a hand across her shoulders. ‘’Leave now or I expose you,’’ she whispered.
That was all Beryl wanted to hear. She dreaded being exposed in public and so within a twinkle of an eye, she had fled out of the eatery teary eyes. Gavin stared at Ethel and her mother in a confusing manner before running out after Beryl…
‘’Yeah, it worked,’’ Ethel said excitedly to the mother.
‘’Yeah, let’s relax and watch the drama unfold,’’ her mother chuckled, then pulled out a chair and sat on it while Ethel did same…
:
Gavin ran around the eatery like a teenager who had missed his way. He looked around and sighted Beryl about entering a cab, so he quickly rushed to meet her.
‘’Beryl, please listen to me,’’ he pleaded as he now stood beside her by the roadside, then waved at the cab man to drive off.
‘’Just let me be, you actually asked your fiancée to come over to the eatery just to humiliate me, right?’’ Beryl accused.
‘’She isn’t my fiancé, you just have to believe me,’’ Gavin pleaded again and held her hands. ‘’I…’’ he began and paused to look into her eyes.
‘’You what? Come on, complete the lie. Come on, I’m useless, lie to me as much as you want,’’ Beryl said annoyingly.
‘’I know this isn’t the right time for me to say this, but believe me, I doubt if it has any specific time to be said,’’ he started to say again but Beryl just kept mute and watched him.
Gavin glanced around him. Different cars could be seen plying the road. The weather was hot but he cared less. ‘’She isn’t my fiancée, it’s you I love Beryl. I fell in love with you right from when I first met you in your office,’’ he said unexpectedly and swallowed hard, but before he knew it, a resounding slap from Beryl landed across his face which left him dumbfounded.
Beryl hissed loudly and waved at a taxi. In less than ten seconds, she and the taxi were out of sight…
:
MR LEWIS RESIDENCE
:
Gavin got home in rage to meet his father in the sitting room, reading his newspaper as usual.
‘’Where is your wife, dad?’’ he barked furiously while the father quickly stood up.
‘’Have you suddenly gone nuts, son. How dare you?’’ the father shouted. He looked more surprised than angry.
‘’Mom has bitten more than she can chew. I will make sure I deal with her here and now.’’
Soon Mrs Edna emerged from the inner room but before she could even reach the sitting room, Gavin rushed to her and landed a slap across her face.
‘’If I should loose Beryl because of the s--t you brought to this house, I will make sure you rot in jail, nonsense,’’ he shouted and pushed his father out of the way, then fled out of the house again.
‘’My son slapped me because of a woman and you just watched on, right?’’ Mrs Edna asked as she rubbed the cheek where she had been slapped.
‘’What else did you expect, a hug, a kiss, an apology or what, tell me?’’ the husband said and threw his hands in despair.
The wife’s eyes bulged out in shock. ‘’You mean you’re in support of what your son did?’’
‘’I’m sorry but I don’t have an answer and I don’t think I will ever have an answer to that question, I know the reason behind your actions but if I were you, I would simply change and do the right thing,’’ he concluded and walked out of the sitting room.
‘’He knows?’’ Mrs Edna asked rhetorically. ‘’No, I must get rid of that girl as soon as possible. I have to call Raymond to get rid of her quickly before she ruins my life,’’ she soliloquized and rushed up the stairs to make a call…

SCOTRYL COMPANY
STILL INSIDE BERYL’S OFFICE
:
Gavin held unto Beryl for about two minutes before letting go.
‘’Thanks,’’ Beryl smiled through her tears. ‘’You came at the right time.’’
Gavin reached out and wiped away the tears that was still dripping down her cheeks, then pulled her into his arms again. ‘’What’s bothering my iron lady and that’s enough to make her cry?’’
‘’Nothing, I’m fine,’’ Beryl smiled painfully again, then pulled out of his arms and made to sit back on her chair but Gavin held her right hand and pulled her back to himself.
‘’I walked in here to meet you, crying. You can’t just tell me nothing, besides you know I won’t believe you,’’ Gavin insisted.
Beryl stared at him. What she saw in his eyes was pure love and affection but could she trust him enough to spill her dirty secret? ‘’Can I trust you?’’ she asked.
‘’Of coz you can. Tell me, what’s the matter?’’
‘’Let’s go somewhere else, please,’’ she requested.
‘’As her majesty pleases,’’ Gavin smiled and released her.
‘’Let me tidy up,’’ Beryl said and walked calmly to the door and out of the office…

MR LEWIS RESIDENCE
SITTING ROOM, TIME CHECKED 1:05PM
:
Mr Lewis walked into his sitting room to meet his wife busy cleaning the furniture’s. ‘’Honey,’’ he called and glance around.
‘’Where are the domestic workers, why are you doing the job I pay them on monthly basis for?’’ he demanded.
‘’I asked all of them to go home for today, then come back tomorrow morning,’’ The wife answered without looking up at him.
The husband was surprised. ‘’When was that?’’
‘’This morning, immediately you left,’’ she replied and sat on the couch she had just finished cleaning.
‘’Why didn’t you inform me first, what’s up with this strange attitude of yours for the past few days?’’ he inquired.
Mrs Edna quickly stood up in anger. ‘’Do I need permission before making decisions in my husband’s house?’’ she fumed.
‘’Why are you behaving this way?’’ the husband asked and shifted backwards.
‘’Just let me be, okay!’’ she hissed, threw the dusting rag on the couch and walked out on him…

THE BEAUTY PALACE
:
Mrs Veronica Edwin was relaxing on the chair inside her boutique with a nylon of popcorn in her hands, on the table in front of her was a pack of yogurt. She kept shouting out orders to her workers at interval as customers trooped in and out of the boutique.
‘’Mom!’’ Ethel screamed excitedly as she walked into the boutique.
‘’My angel,’’ the mom smiled as Ethel moved to sit on a stool beside her.
‘’I nailed it mom, he fell for it,’’ Ethel said and dropped her bag on the table in front of her.
‘’Wow!’’ the mother hugged her happily. ‘’We’re soon gonna be super rich,’’ she said and they both laughed happily.
‘’I’m d--n hungry mom,’’ Ethel complained.
‘’Why won’t you be after that breath taking exercise,’’ the mother chuckled.
‘’Mom!” Ethel hit her arm playfully.
‘’Daughter!’’ the mother laughed and stood up. ‘’Let’s go have something to eat,’’ she said and walked towards the inner room.
Ethel giggled and picked up her bag, then stood up and headed outside to wait for her mom in the car…

MR SCOTT’S RESIDENCE
:
Cheryl walked into the house, looking confused. Her mother was lying on the couch, watching her favourite program on television as usual.
‘’Gooday mom,’’ Cheryl greeted casually and made to walk past her but the
‘’What’s wrong with you?’’ she asked and sat up.
‘’Nothing mom,’’ Cheryl replied and started moving towards the stairs again.
Mrs Laura Scott stood up immediately and faced her. ‘’How can you tell me nothing? You come home from school looking confused and gloomy, yet you tell me it’s nothing,’’ she said and placed her hands akimbo.
‘’It’s nothing mom, I am perfectly fine.’’
The mother removed her hands from her waist and walked towards her. Standing in front of her, she placed both hands on her shoulder. ‘’I am your mother and I know whenever…’’
‘’Mom!’’ Cheryl interrupted as she removed the mother’s hand from her shoulder. ‘’You worry too much please, I said it’s nothing,’’ she said and with that turned and ran up the stairs while the mother just stood and stared…

GOLDEN FOODS EATERY
:
Gavin and Beryl walked into the eatery, holding hands. Beryl had her specs on to shield her eyes which was red and swollen due to too much crying. They both moved to a secluded area to sit. A waiter walked up to them after they had sat down.
The waiter glanced at her wristwatch before speaking up. ‘’Good morning and welcome,’’ she greeted with a smile and handed Gavin the menu book, then folded her hands behind her back. Gavin glanced through the menu book and stretched it out to Beryl but she simply shook her head negatively.
‘’Get us a bottle of wine and two glasses,’’ Gavin said with a smile and returned the menu book.
‘’Okay sir,’’ the waiter said and courtseyed a little before turning to leave.
‘’You asked me to bring you here coz you’re hungry but you refused even touching the menu book?’’ Gavin began after the waiter had left.
‘’Why did you order for wine, what are you celebrating?’’ Beryl asked instead, ignoring his question.
As Gavin was about to give her a reply, the waiter returned with a fancy tray on her left palm that contained the wine and glasses.
‘’Why four glasses? We’re only two on this table,’’ Gavin complained as the waiter dropped the tray on the table.
‘’I asked her to double the glasses,’’ A voice said behind him.
Beryl quickly looked up. ‘’Ethel!’’ she called out happily and stood up.
‘’Ethel?’’ Gavin repeated and stood up as well as Ethel and her mother moved and stood beside the table while the waiter walked away quietly…

:
As Beryl was about texting her address to Kayla, another call came in through her phone. ‘’Who could this be?’’ she muttered impatiently as she accepted the call and placed the phone to her ear.
‘’Hello miss Beryl! Do you remember me?’’ the person asked from the other end.
‘’I don’t think I do coz this number is strange in my phone,’’ Beryl replied.
The caller laughed a bit before speaking up, ‘’This is Raymond.’’
Beryl began to shudder in fright, ‘’Raymond?’’ she repeated. ‘’How did you get my number?’’ she asked.
‘’Wow! Forget about that,’’ Raymond giggled. ‘’Now I have your details, I will make sure I make your life miserable.’’
‘’Remember you hurt and left me heartbroken. What else do you want?’’ She asked in fear.
‘’I hurt you, yes, accepted. But was that enough reason for your father to use my brother and his wife for rituals in order to succeed in life?’’ Raymond asked with anger in his voice.
Beryl was shocked to her marrow at what she heard, her only past she regretted was sleeping with different kinds of men and having two abortions for Raymond which left her without a womb. ‘’What are you insinuating?’’ she asked.
‘’Really!’’ Raymond exclaimed. ‘’Continue pretending but bear it in mind that I’m coming for you,’’ he said and hung up.
‘’Hello, hello… please listen,’’ Beryl pleaded but the line was dead. She was lost on what to do, so she just dropped the phone and began to shed tears…

REX OFFICE
:
Rex was busy documenting some files in his office when Gavin walked in, grinning from ear to ear. Rex worked in small office where he did everything computer for people like online registration, exams registration etc. the office looked like a one room apartment but was divided into two. One part was used as an inner office while the other was for the customers.
‘’Guy, what’s up?’’ Gavin asked as he pulled a plastic chair and sat opposite him.
Rex looked up from the system and motioned at one of his assistants who stood by the door to close the door a bit. ‘’This one you’re smiling like this, any better?’’ he asked.
‘’Why still working here nah after dad had promised to find you a good job?’’ Gavin asked instead.
‘’You know very well I’m not as lazy as you are,’’ Rex giggled.
‘’Idiot, your papa,’’ Gavin laughed and added ‘’Sorry’’ as an afterthought coz he remembered Rex was an orphan.
‘’Tell me what’s making you so happy?’’ Rex asked again.
Gavin adjusted himself on the seat and dropped his phone on top of the table. ‘’I don hammer, your guy don hammer today,’’ he screamed excitedly.
‘’Ah!’’ Rex exclaimed. ‘’Tell me about it but please, your voice is too loud,’’ he cautioned.
‘’Konji nah, I f--k today tire like say I never f--k before, the girl toto sweet die,’’ Gavin licked his lips and romanced his moustache.
‘’Wow!’’ Rex exclaimed and leaned forward. ‘’Who is the girl that’s making you act like a mad man,’’ he said and laughed.
Gavin laughed as well. ‘’You dey craze. Nah Ethel.’’
Rex smiling face quickly turned into a frown. ‘’Which Ethel?’’ he wanted to know.
‘’How many Ethel do you know? She actually threatened me with a knife, though I acted tough at first, I later gave in coz the I couldn’t control myself any longer,’’ Gavin explained.
‘’Guy you don mad, I swear. Did you use any protection?’’
At the mention of protection, Gavin’s eyes widened in terror. ‘’I didn’t o,’’ he replied but Rex only started laughing. ‘’What’s funny nah? It skipped my mind completely.’’
Rex eyed him in anger as he stopped laughing, ‘’Be prepared to be a father very soon,’’ he said and hissed loudly.
Gavin’s eyes widened the more as Rex talked about his being a father very soon. The only name that crossed his mind was ‘’Beryl’’ ‘’I have to go see her ASAP,’’ he said and stood up.
‘’Who?” Rex asked.
‘’The woman my heart beats for,’’ he said and walked to the door.
‘’You want to see the one you love after f-----g a s--t?’’
‘’Whatever,’’ Gavin breath calmly and walked out…

GAVLE SILVER LOUNGE RESORT
:
Mrs Edna Lewis sat on a white plastic chair at behind the hotel at the rear end of the hotel where the bar was located. She couldn’t stop regretting her actions, ranging from the horrible past which led to the complicated and problems filled present she was in. Soon, Ethel arrived dressed in the same short yellow gown she had worn to her house.’
‘’Good day ma,’’ Ethel greeted and pulled out a chair from under the table, the sat opposite her.
‘’Welcome,’’ Mrs Edna replied absentmindedly. She hated everything about the girl that sat opposite her but she just had to play along with the mother in order not to tarnish her image and that of her family. ‘’How did it go?’’ she asked.
‘’Very well ma, he fell into the trap and I must confess, your son is super strong,’’ Ethel smiled seductively.
‘’She’s more than a s--t,’’ Mrs Edna thought wordlessly and disdained her secretly.
‘’So, what next ma?’’ Ethel asked.
‘’Nothing, just be prepared and let’s hope you get pregnant soon,’’ Mrs Edna replied.

SCOTRYL COMPANY
Gavin walked into Beryl’s office, unrestricted. He was surprised to meet her with her head bent on the desk and from the way she sniffed showed she was crying. He moved behind the desk and stood beside her, then tapped her shoulder lightly.
Beryl startled and looked up. Her eyes were red and puffed from too much crying. She didn’t when or how it happened but she quickly stood up and threw her arms across Gavin’s shoulder for a hug. Though Gavin was surprised, he accepted her with open arms and held her tight while she wept on his shoulders…

MR LEWIS RESIDENCE
SITTING ROOM
:
Gavin struggled under her but the pressure was too much. One thing he found difficult to understand was where and how she got such prowess. He was known to be the master of different kinds of women back in the state but was shocked as Ethel over powered him.
Ethel sat up on his tummy and brought out a small table knife from the shorts pocket she wore under the gown. ‘’Are you ready to cooperate or get wounded by this?’’ she asked and smiled wickedly, then licked the blade of the knife, making it glint with her saliva.
Gavin gasped in astonishment and tried pushing her away but couldn’t. even breathing was a difficulty as she sat with all her weight on his stomach. ‘’Please get… up… I… I… can’t breathe,’’ he stammered.
Ethel chuckled, ‘’Are you ready to cooperate or not?’’ she asked swinging the knife in his face.
The pressure became unbearable, so he said ‘’YES’’ without thinking twice.
‘’Good,’’ Ethel said and stood up from his body, then motioned for him to stand up. Gavin stood up obediently in pretence and stretched his arms. As soon as Gavin stood up, she quickly lay flat on the couch with her legs wide open. ‘’Now! Do things to me,’’ she ordered without dropping the knife.
‘’Why are you forcing yourself on me with threats?” Gavin asked. ‘’Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?’’
Ethel quickly stood up again and held him by the throat while pointing the knife at his stomach, ‘’How dare you speak to me in that manner?’’
Gavin pushed her roughly, making her fall back on the couch, it seemed the knife he saw her with had brought back his lost sex senses, ‘’I would be a very big fool to allow you harm me because of sex. Something that I drink like water from sluts like you who throw themselves at men,’’ he boasted and climbed on top of her. Within the speed of light, he had his mouth covered on her left boob and his right fingers in her pants, little did he know that was actually digging a pit he would soon fall into with his own hands. Meanwhile, Ethel dropped the knife on the floor and threw her hands around his head as she began to moan softly…

Beryl walked back to her seat with tears in her eyes. She felt very bad for treating Gavin the way she did. She liked him, yes, but what she couldn’t bear was the pain of another heartbreak.
‘’Coming over in my direction, so thankful for that, it’s such a blessing yeah, turn every situation into heaven yeah…’’ Despasito remix brought her out of her reverie. That was her phone ringing but she ignored the call at first. When it seemed like the caller wasn’t going to give up anytime soon, she decided to pick the call.
‘’Hello!’’ she began as she placed the phone to her ear.
‘’Beryl,’’ the person sounded from the other end.
‘’This voice sounds familiar,’’ Beryl thought wordlessly. ‘’Is this Kayla please?’’ she asked.
‘’Yes honey, it’s Kayla. I’ve missed you a lot,’’ Kayla replied with so much excitement in her voice.
Beryl was overwhelmed with excitement to hear Kayla’s voice again after three years. ‘’Wow, I’ve missed you more my angel. When did you return to Nigeria?”
‘’Last night baby, ’Kayla said in her British accent. ‘’I bought a new sim card this morning and decided to let you know I’m in the country.’’
‘’Wow! I’m so happy, bottle popping tonight,’’ Beryl screamed excitedly. For a moment, she had completely forgotten about her problems.
‘’Sure honey, please text me your address,’’ Kayla requested.
‘’In a jiffy sweetheart.’’
‘’Alright, I’ll be expecting,’’ Kayla smiled and hung up…

Raymond’s Residence
:
Uncle Raymond’s house was a four bedroom, well furnished apartment. It had all the luxury a house could boast of except that it seemed to make the house look a little bit jam-packed. At the age of thirty, he wasn’t a married but he had two children from two different women. He was sitting on the sofa in his sitting room, watching the twelve o’clock news on AKBC (AKWAIBOM BROADCASTING COPORATION). Ever since he bought a TV decoder, he had stopped watching AKBC but something pushed him to watch the channel that very day. After the news ended at about 12:25, business places were advertised and much to his dismay, SCOTRYL COMPANY was advertised and Beryl’s number displayed on the screen for contact info.
‘’Like seriously, so this girl is now a manager of a company,’’ he thought to himself as he quickly picked up a pen and paper that was on the centre table to write down the number. ‘’I think this is the right time for me to pay her back with the same coin the father used to pay me, now is the time for me to be super rich,’’ he smiled mischievously and picked up his phone to dial the number…

Jayden couldn’t take his eyes off Cheryl. Her innocent face made her look more charming and beautiful but there was something about her, something he had to find out as soon as possible to clear the doubt in his mind.
‘’Let me save you the trouble of being so shy even though you actually look more beautiful when you’re shy,’’ he smiled, then jumped down from the desk top and sat beside her on the seat. ‘’So tell me about yourself.’’
‘’uh!’’ Cheryl startled and raised her head.
‘’Tell me about yourself, like your surname, how many siblings you have etc.’’
Beryl cleared her throat and smiled a bit before speaking up. ‘’My dad is late but my mum is still alive,’’ she began.
‘’Oh! My parents are actually late too,’’ Jayden said and placed his hands on the desk top.
‘’Sorry about that,’’ Cheryl said sympathetically.
‘’It’s alright dear. How many siblings do you have?’’ he asked.
‘’I have just one sister and she’s my senior. The managing director of SCOTRYL COMPANY,’’ Cheryl said and smiled proudly.
‘’SCOTRYL COMPANY?’’ Jayden repeated, looking surprised.
‘’Yes, any problem?’’ Cheryl wanted to know.
‘’Not at all,’’ Jayden smiled. He had a faraway look on his face. The manager of SCOTRYL COMPANY is actually the same person that’s behind the death of his parents according to his uncle but he could only hope and pray that it shouldn’t be the same SCOTRYL COMPANY that Cheryl claimed her sister was the MD coz if it was, it could only be explained in one word which is ‘’TROUBLE…’’

Mrs Edna Lewis swallowed hard. ‘’This isn’t going to be an easy task,’’ she thought to herself. ‘’Just give me a little more time and I promise I’ll make it all right,’’ she pleaded again.
Mrs Veronica Edwin stared at her pitifully. All what she saw in the eyes of the woman who sat in front of her was fear of the unknown but she had no other choice coz she was very much determined to use her in achieving her aim. ‘’It’s alright my friend. Just be fast about whatsoever you’re planning to do, if you need my help, you know where to find me.’’
Mrs Edna smiled in relief and said her thanks…

After discussing the important details of the partnership and all the signing of agreement papers, Gavin rose up to leave while Beryl stood up as well.
‘’Thanks, I look forward to having a nice working relationship with you,’’ she said with a smiled and stretched out her hands for a shake.
‘’’Same here,’’ Gavin accepted the stretched hands with a smile as well. ‘’Dinner tonight?’’ he asked without releasing her hand.
Beryl thought silently for a while. ‘’Alright, text me the address later but not your hotel please coz I’ll go there tomorrow with some of my staffs for inspection.’’
‘’No problem angel, as you wish,’’ Gavin said happily. ‘’You’re beautiful, you know? Extraordinarily beautiful and I think I like you.’’
On hearing that, Beryl quickly frowned and removed her hand from his, forcefully. ‘’You need to go now,’’ she said, picked up her phone and walked to the door.
Gavin turned to her surprisingly, ‘’Why, did I say anything wrong?’’
‘’No,’’ Beryl answered sharply. ‘’Please leave,’’ she added and opened the door wide.
Gavin was confused. He couldn’t understand the reason why she suddenly started acting rude again. He quietly walked to the door like a teenager who was scared of being punished for a crime he didn’t commit. ‘’Am I still permitted to text you the address?’’ he asked as he got to the door.
‘’No!’’ she said sharply.
‘’This is serious, are you sure you’re fine?’’ he pressed further with concern written all over his face.
‘’Please leave,’’ she repeated.
‘’Okay, bye.’’ He smiled ruefully and stepped out while she slammed the door behind him and leaned on it as hot tears rolled down her cheeks…

HEARTLAND UNIVERSITY
TIME CHECKED, 10:05AM
:
Students were seen moving out of a lecture hall in groups of twos and threes. Some were walking towards another lecture hall while others just rambled around.
Cheryl had decided to stay back in class since she had no lectures again for the day but truth be told, she was actually waiting to see Jayden, the guy who had helped her the previous day. Ever since she started her 200level in heartland university, she had come to love Tuesdays coz she always had only one course. She sat on the long seat, fiddling her phone.
‘’Babe, what’s up nah,’’ her friend, Prisca, said to her. ‘’Don’t you want to go home today coz you always run home every Tuesday after lectures?’’ she asked.
Cheryl dropped her phone on the desk top and smiled. ‘’I’m actually waiting for someone.’’
‘’Really!’’ Prisca exclaimed and sat down beside her. ‘’Who?’’ she wanted to know.
‘’One cute guy like that o, the one I told you about,’’ Cheryl said, looking so bright eyed.
‘’Okay, I remember,’’ Prisca confirmed and nodded, then lowered her voice. ‘’So have you guys, hmmm?’’
‘’Haba!’’ Cheryl exclaimed. ‘’You sef nawa o.’’
‘’Sorry nah, I’m just curious.’’
Cheryl hit her arm playfully. ‘’Go away jhoor.’’
Just then, Jayden walked into the hall while Prisca stood up again and picked up her bag. ‘’Hope you’re not leaving because of me?’’ he asked as he walked up to Cheryl and caressed her cheek. There were few students inside the class and they seemed to mind their own business.
‘’Not at all,’’ Prisca grinned and fled out of the lecture hall even before Jayden could say another word while Cheryl laughed softly.
‘’Why is she acting that way? ‘’Jayden asked as he carried out Cheryl’s phone and sat on the spot.
‘’I don’t know,’’ Cheryl replied and added shyly, ‘’Please get up and sit on the seat.’’
‘’Why?’’ Jayden smiled.
‘’Why asking why when you know very well that you’re making me feel very uncomfortable.’’
Jayden chuckled and dropped her phone, then reached out and took her hands in his. ‘’Have someone ever told you how beautiful you are?’’
Cheryl looked down shyly and refused to answer.
‘’Come on girl, why acting like a kid?’’ Jayden questioned and released her hands.
‘’I’m sorry,’’ was all Cheryl could say.
Jayden leaned forward and lifted up her chin with his right fingers, then looked into her eyes, romantically, but Cheryl shook her head and looked down again.
‘’Gosh!’’ Jayden exclaimed. ‘’You’re so shy…’’

MR LEWIS RESIDENCE
:
Gavin got home, looking tired, worried and unhappy. He had wanted going back to Rex house but decided against it. He walked sluggishly into the sitting to meet the shocker of his life.
‘’Hey! What are you doing here?’’ he questioned with authority as he removed his specs, then looked around the sitting room and up the stairs, expecting maybe his dad or mom to come downstairs.
Ethel stood up seductively and dropped her phone. She looked sexy and tempting in her short yellow gown that exposed a greater part of her cleavage. The sight of her made Gavin swallowed hard as he felt cold shivers run down his spine and a pricking sensation down his d--k. She moved closer to him and covered the space between them, then began caressing his chest through the shirt he wore. ‘’No one is here, so don’t be scared coz we have the whole house to ourselves,’’ she said with a charming smile.
‘’Get lost, you s--t,’’ Gavin shouted and shoved her away, trying very hard to sound authoritative. It had been two months since he returned to Nigeria and hadn’t had s-x since then coz he had promised himself not to indulge in sexual activities any longer till he found his missing rib but here he was, being tempted.
Ethel wasn’t ready to accept defeat as quickly stood up from the couch she had fallen to as a result of the push and rushed towards him again, panting heavily like a dog. As she stood in front of him again, she pushed him down on the double couch and pinned herself to him…

ECHOES OF PAST (DILEMMA) SEASON 1 EPISODE 9

Brought to you by:- Story Update 





SCOTRYL COMPANY
:
Beryl walked into the reception to meet Gavin who quickly stood up and pull off his specs as soon as he saw her.
‘’Wow! She looks prettier in gown than skirt and blouse,’’ Gavin thought as he stared admiringly at Beryl who now stood in front of him. She was dressed in a red round neck long sleeve cotton gown that had fancy buttons on the hand and in front. She also wore red bracelets with sparkling dangling gold earrings while black stiletto heels adorned her feet. She had equally applied little make up. All this added to her beauty and made her glow.
‘’Good morning,’’ she greeted. ‘’Would you please stop staring and tell me why you’re here again today?’’ she added, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
Gavin smiled and stretched to his full height, ‘’Good morning, miss Beryl. I am here so we can talk business. I’m sorry about yesterday.’’
‘’Alright,’’ Beryl smiled too and turned to Nora, the receptionist who quickly pretended to be busy. ‘’Nora?’’
‘’Ma!’’
‘’Tell Rose to see to the inspection and inform me once the clients’ package is ready to be delivered.’’
‘’Okay ma.’’
‘’Good,’’ Beryl nodded and turned to Gavin. ‘’To my office please,’’ she said a before leading the way out of the reception while Gavin followed quietly behind…

MR LEWIS’ HOUSE
TIME CHECKED, 8:30AM
:
The morning looked bright and calm as Mr Lewis sat on the couch in his sitting room, scanning through the newspaper that had been delivered to him that morning. Everywhere looked sparkling clean as usual coz the domestic workers had done their job. Soon the wife emerged from the dining room where she had placed a tray of sliced bread with fried eggs on the table.
‘’Aren’t you in anyway worried about your son?’’ he looked up from the newspaper and asked her as she came into the sitting room to tell him breakfast was ready. She was already dressed in a velvet green material but still had her hair covered with the hair net.
‘’Why should I be worried about a full grown man?’’ the wife asked as she moved closer to the window to adjust the curtain.
‘’What are you hiding from me, are you doing all this out of fear or due to compulsion, maybe like a blackmail or something?’’ he pressed further.
‘’Do I look like one who is hiding anything from you? Please don’t start, okay! Don’t just start,’’ She hissed and walked towards the stairs.
‘’I just pray my son acts like a man and propose to Beryl as soon as possible,’’ he said and smiled to himself, then adjusted his reading glasses and faced the paper again.
The wife’s eyes bulged out in surprise on hearing him say that but she refused to be intimidated. ‘’You both should be ready for war if he ever goes against my will,’’ she said and then lowered her voice. ‘’I suffered and laboured for him nine good months, if he doesn’t listen to me and do as a I say, I will curse him,’’ she concluded, sniffed and climbed the stairs with grudging steps.
‘’This isn’t normal,’’ Mr Lewis thought to himself as he folded the newspaper and leaned on the couch in worried manner…

SCOTRYL COMPANY
BERYL’S OFFICE
:
Beryl and Gavin sat opposite each other without saying anything to each other. When the silence became unbearable, she decided to speak up.
‘’Hello Mr. would you please say something and stop staring at me, you’re making me feel uncomfortable.’’
Gavin sat erect and smiled apologetically. ‘’I’ve heard a lot about the tasty fruit cake and juice your company produces, and I must commend, you’re really doing a great job,’’ he began.
‘’Wow!’’ Beryl smiled happily. ‘’Thanks, I appreciate you big time.’’
Gavin moistened his lips romantically, ‘’Yeah, my dad and I have decided to partner with you. You will be supplying to our hotel as well and be sure to be getting well paid.’’
‘’Really!’’ Beryl exclaimed.
‘’Yeah.’’
‘’Thanks, I’m grateful.’’
‘’Guess you know the name of my hotel?’’ Gavin inquired.
‘’Yeah, or have you forgotten about the text you sent to me yesterday evening?’’ Beryl asked and waited to see his reaction.
Gavin’s face suddenly changed from smile to a frown. ‘’You really made me feel bad last night, couldn’t even sleep a wink.’’
‘’Oh!’’ Beryl squeezed her face pitifully in an insincere way. ‘’I’m sorry about that. Your mom called me.’’
Gavin googled at her, ‘’Like seriously. What did she say to you?’’ he wanted to know.
Beryl chuckled, ‘’Nothing bad.’’
Gavin sighed, ‘’I doubt that.’’
‘’Let’s discuss the pay so we can sign the papers and enter into an agreement. I’ve got a very busy schedule today,’’ Beryl said, tactically changing the topic of discussion.
Though Gavin felt he should prolong the discussion about his mother, he decided to let go. So he quietly nodded and brought out his pen…

THE BEAUTY PALACE BOUTIQUE
:
Mrs Veronica Edwin, Ethel’s mom, was standing behind the perfume counter inside her boutique, giving out orders to her workers. The workers were all dressed in a black trouser and purple polo top which had ‘’THE BEAUTY PALACE’’ printed at the back.
‘’Hey! Joy, be careful with that glassy stiletto and you Kelly, get me the sales book,’’ Mrs Veronica ordered as she moved to sit on the arm chair at a corner. She was dressed in blue jean trouser and pink cotton top which made her look younger than her age. Beautiful pink stiletto adorned her feet and on her left wrist were bracelets of different colours. The afro she had made looked like a canopy on her head, coupled with her gold channel o earring. A mere looking at her, one didn’t need to be told she was a woman of class and top-notch.
As she sat and began flipping through the sales book, Mrs Edna Lewis entered and walked up to her. She wore a simple velvet green material with low heeled shoes and wore a light make up.
‘’Good morning,’’ Mrs Edna greeted and sat on a chair opposite her, uneasily.
Mrs Veronica replied her greetings with a malicious sneer. ‘’Your son insulted my daughter yesterday and you just watched on, right?’’ she began.
‘’Please hear me out, Veronica,’’ Mrs Edna said in a pleading tone. She hadn’t even dropped her handbag. ‘’It isn’t my fault.’’
‘’So it’s my fault right?’’ Mrs Veronica pointed at herself. ‘’Just wait till I expose you to your husband and the whole world, do you really think your past can be hidden without you sacrificing something for it?’’ She hissed loudly and dropped the sales book on the small stool beside her…

ECHOES OF PAST (DILEMMA) SEASON 1 EPISODE 8

MR EDWIN BARRY’S RESIDENCE

TIME CHECKED 8:05PM

Mrs Veronica Edwin, Ethel’s mom had just finished having her evening bath and was dressed in her grey coloured pyjamas. She felt sleepy after a long day at her boutique but decided to go check up on Ethel before going to bed. She walked tiredly out of the room she shared with her husband to the sitting room.
‘’Honey,’’ she called out to her husband as she entered the sitting room to meet him sitting on the sofa and reading his newspaper as usual. The sitting room looked good, though not very wide and posh coz Mr Edwin was just an average man, not too rich and not too poor. ‘’Ethel never misses her night show on TV except there’s power outage, why isn’t she here tonight?’’ she asked as she scratched her hair through the hair net she used to cover her hair.
‘’I came back from work to find her lying gloomily in her room,’’ the husband replied without looking up from the newspaper he was glancing through.
‘’Did you care to find out what’s bothering her?’’
‘’Why should I?’’ the husband looked up at her. ‘’Isn’t it obvious she might be suffering from another heartbreak from one of the numerous guys you’ve pushed her to follow around.’’
‘’Nonsense,’’ The wife retorted. ‘’Aren’t you tired of squatting in this three-bedroom truck you call a house?’’
The husband decided to ignore her sarcasm in order not to start up an unending argument, and so quietly adjusted his reading glasses and turned to his newspaper.
‘’You can’t talk again, abi?’’ the wife hissed and walked out of the sitting room.
:
ETHEL’S ROOM
:
Ethel lay on her bed face up, probably counting the ceiling. She couldn’t stop thinking of how bright eyed Beryl looked when she was telling her about Gavin earlier in her office.
‘’My angel?’’ the mom called as she walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed.
‘’Mom,’’ Ethel answered and sat up with a sad face.
‘’How did the meeting go, not well I guess?’’ the mother asked and touched her left cheek.
‘’He said I dress like a s--t and to worsen the situation, he met Beryl today. And you know how guys love flirting around Beryl that they barely notice me,’’ Ethel complained in one breath.
The mother smiled and dressed her closer to herself. ‘’Is that why you look downcast or are you a s--t? Come on, don’t you trust your mother again?’’
‘’I do mom, but…’’
‘’It’s alright,’’ the mother interrupted. ‘’The early bird catches the worm remember, besides you’ve got it, so you got to flaunt it. I’ll speak to Edna before I retire to bed tonight.’’
‘’Mom, I…’’
‘’Trust me my angel. He’s all yours, soon we’ll be swimming in money,’’ the mother said and smiled reassuringly while Ethel could only nod her head…
:
***
REX APARTMENT
TIME CHECKED 8:30PM
:
Rex sat on the sofa in a pensive mood, continuously glancing at the wall clock. He was worried about his brother, Jayden, who was yet to return from school and also Gavin who sat on another sofa opposite him, trying to contact Beryl. Suddenly the door opened and Jayden walked in, grinning from ear to ear but stopped as soon as he saw the angry look on Rex face.
Rex stood up immediately Jayden entered. ‘’How many times will I warn you not to stay out late at night all in the name school?’’ he fired angrily.
Jayden swallowed hard and lowered his eyes apologetically. ‘’I’m sorry,’’ he murmured.
‘’You’re sorry?’’ Rex eyed him and sat back on the sofa. ‘’Maybe you think…’’
‘’It’s alright,’’ Gavin interrupted. ‘’Go change,’’ he said to Jayden who smiled gratefully and greeted him before going into the inner room.
‘’I keep on saying the same thing over and over again but he just wouldn’t listen,’’ Rex complained.
‘’It’s alright, he’ll come around,’’ Gavin said and tried to smile as he stood up. ‘’I need to rest my poor head.’’
‘’Some girls are just so heartless,’’ Rex hissed.
‘’I’ll go see her tomorrow,’’ Gavin said as his voice sank low, then walked to the door that led to the corridor.
Rex laughed tauntingly, ‘’Are you sure you’re normal?” he asked while Gavin stopped and turned to face him.
‘’No, I’m not normal coz thoughts of this girl is driving me crazy,’’ Gavin said and disappeared through the door…

THE NEXT DAY
SCOTRYL COMPANY, TIME CHECKED 8:15AM
:
Beryl had arrived the office earlier than usual coz a client had called her the previous night to order for new samples of the fruit juice and cake she had produced. She was out from the room where the juice was being packaged for sell and was about entering into the bakery for inspection when one of her workers walked briskly and excused her.
‘’Any problem, Gloria?’’ she asked.
‘’Not at all ma but someone is actually waiting at the reception to see you,’’ Gloria replied with her hands folded behind her back.
‘’Someone? Couldn’t you inform the person that I was busy or better still direct him or her to Rose?’’
‘’I did ma but he insisted on seeing you. He didn’t look like one who was in a hurry to leave anytime soon,’’ Gloria explained.
‘’Alright,’’ Beryl said and handed her the record book. ‘’You know what to do with this right?’’
‘’Yes ma.’’
‘’Good, no mistakes please. I’ll be right back,’’ she said and walked away while Gloria went into the room…
:
INSIDE THE BAKERY ROOM
:
‘’Guys, gist o,’’ Gloria tapped the back of the record book to get attention as soon as she entered the bakery room.
‘’No noise in here please,’’ Tunde, another worker cautioned. He wore a green apron and was putting milk into the mixture of flour in a bowl.
‘’Tell us jhare. Forget Tunde,’’ Ruth, another female worker whispered and dropped the fruit cake pan she held on the small table beside her.
‘’I think madam now has a boyfriend, finally,’’ Gloria whispered too.
‘’Big mouth,’’ another who stood by the oven refuted. ‘’How you take sabi?’’
‘’Was she talking to you? Amebo,’’ Ruth defended.
‘’Better watch your mouth James,’’ Gloria shot at him.
‘’What will you do? Idiot, better go get married, and stop poking your nose into other people’s affairs,’’ Tunde hissed. ‘’Birds of a feather.’’
‘’Allow her talk. One day I’ll cut that her long mouth and put it into this oven,’’ James said.
‘’Oya try am nah,’’ Gloria boasted. ‘’Idiot, if you marry me I wonder if your manhood will cut off.’’
‘’You and I know very well that you are worse than a bad wife, I just pity the poor man that’ll marry you, fool,’’ Tunde said in a mocking tone.
‘’Forget this people and gist me jhoor,’’ Ruth said in a way that showed she wasn’t concerned a bit about anything that was being said but Gloria just eyed her angrily, then used the record book to hit her mouth before walking towards the door that led to the inner room…

ECHOES OF PAST (DILEMMA) SEASON 1 EPISODE 7


Brought to you by:- Story Update.


***


SCOTRYL COMPANY


BERYL’S OFFICE
The story Beryl was about to tell pricked Ethel’s interest and so she leaned forward to hear 

more of it.
‘’Please tell me more. What led to you guys meeting each other?’’
Beryl smiled toothlessly and soon began to narrate all that transpired between Gavin and 

herself. ‘’But damn it, that guy is cute, I mean over handsome,’’ she concluded.
‘’Wow!’’ Ethel exclaimed. ‘’Why do I have a feeling that he’s probably someone I know?’’
‘’Really! But I doubt you’ll know him even if I describe.’’
‘’I might know him sha, you never can tell.’’
‘’Okay,’’ Beryl said. ‘’He is tall and fair…’’ she paused and tried to think. ‘’Yes, he wore a 

black spec.’’

On hearing that, Ethel became more curious. She had no doubt the guy in question was none 

other than Gavin. ‘’What was he putting on?’’

‘’Black suit, do you know him?’’
‘’Gavin.’’
‘’Yeah Gavin, that’s his name,’’ Beryl confirmed.
Ethel stood up almost immediately and picked up her handbag. ‘’I really have to go now.’’
Beryl stood up as well, ‘’Why, did I say something wrong?’’
‘’No,’’ Ethel smiled ruefully to hide her pain. ‘’I’ll see you tomorrow,’’ she smiled and walked 

to the door, then without another word, left the office with a heavy heart.
Beryl stared after her, wondering what could be wrong. When she couldn’t figure out any 

answer, she sat back to continue her work but the pangs of hunger clutched the walls of her 

stomach and that alone forced her to comply and obey her mother’s voice of ‘’Make sure you 

eat something…’’


REXS’ APARTMENT

Rex couldn’t stop thinking of Gavin and what could be the problem as he sat on the sofa in his 

small sitting room, constantly drinking from a pack of fruit juice which he didn’t even bother 

to put in a glass. He glanced at the wall clock and it read 12:24pm.
Soon the front door opened and Gavin barged in, looking like one who was being pursued.
‘’Mom is trying to act crazy,’’ Gavin said, panting heavily as he slumped on the sofa, beside his 

friend.
‘’Keep calm and talk,’’ Rex said. ‘’What really happened?’’

Gavin, without hesitating, narrated everything to him and concluded by saying, ‘’I am not 

going back home for today. I need a quiet and calm place to think straight.’’
Rex didn’t know what to say, so he simply stood up and said, ‘’Let me bring food,’’ then 

walked quietly to the kitchen...

Mr LEWIS RESIDENCE

Mr Lewis got home at about 6:45pm to meet only the wife in the sitting room, who sat on the 

couch looking gloomy.
‘’What’s the matter?’’ he asked.

‘’Your son has run away from home,’’ the wife fused.
‘’What did you do or say to him while I was away?’’
‘’What else do you think?’’
‘’Don’t tell me you talked to him about that slut called Ethel?’’ The husband asked but she 

refused to answer. ‘’Why are you doing this, what do you wish to gain from…’’
‘’Just let it be, okay,’’ the wife interrupted and stood up. ‘’He will come back whenever he feels 

like,’’ she concluded and with that walked out of the sitting room with her slippers making 

slappy sounds on the tiled floor.
Mr Lewis stared after her in amazement, wondering what had suddenly come over her before 

deciding to call Gavin to find out where he was…

MR SCOTT’S RESIDENCE
:
Meanwhile, Beryl had gotten home at about 6:30pm but she just lay on her bed, ignoring her 

phone that had been ringing continuously. Gavin had messaged her that they should meet at 

his hotel, GAVLE SILVER LOUNGE RESORT, but she wasn’t prepared to go, not after the 

look on Ethel’s face when she told her about him and the call from his mom, besides she wasn’t 

even ready for any guys’ trouble again. She wore a white short and yellow turtle neck polo top.

‘’Senior?’’ Cheryl called as she walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed.
‘’Any problem?’’ Beryl asked.
Cheryl picked up her phone and handed it to her, ‘’Your phone has been ringing.’’
‘’Drop that phone,’’ Beryl said and covered her forehead with her left palm.
‘’Sorry,’’ Cheryl apologised and dropped the phone, then stood up. ‘’Mom said I should i

inform you that dinner is ready,’’ She added but Beryl didn’t answer her, so she just left the 

room.

After Cheryl had left, Beryl lazily dragged herself up from the bed and also left for the sitting 

room with her phone…
Mrs Laura Scott had already changed into her pyjamas by the time Beryl entered the sitting 

room.
‘’You called me, mom,’’ Beryl said and sat on the couch opposite her. Cheryl was having her 

dinner at the dining room which a beautifully designed, transparent linen separated from the 

sitting room.
‘’Dinner is ready,’’ the mother said.
‘’I know mom but I’m not hungry. I’ll eat whenever I’m hungry.’’
The mother sighed deeply and folded her arms. She knew she couldn’t force her against her 

will, ‘’It’s alright. How was work today?’’
‘’Hiaa! Work?’’ Beryl sighed and shook her head negatively. ‘’Today was ter…’’ she paused as 

her phone started ringing again but she just hissed and ended the call. ‘’Today was terrible.’’
The mother became curious, ‘’Why not answer the call?’’
Beryl hissed again, loudly this time. ‘’He’s one of those that made my day terrible.’’
‘’He?’’ the mother smiled amusingly while Cheryl who had been listening to them rushed into 

the sitting room with the spoon she was using to eat.
Beryl looked from her mother to the sister with in surprise. ‘’Yes he. Why do both of you look 

so excited?’’
‘’Ermm… Nothing,’’ Cheryl chuckled in a silly way and returned to the dining room.
‘’Mom?’’ Beryl stared at the mother. ‘’What are you both hiding?’’
‘’You have to talk to him,’’ the mother said.
Beryl became more surprised. ‘’Why mom?’’
‘’Just do as I say.’’
‘’I’ll do no such thing mom,’’ Beryl stood up in anger.
‘’Funny, so you mean to tell me that my asking you to call him is what’s making you pissed 

off?’’ the mom asked, raising her head to look at her.
‘’Yes mom,’’ Beryl frowned. ‘’Goodnight,’’ she added and with that walked out on the mother 

and headed upstairs
‘’This girl is very difficult,’’ Mrs Laura complained after Beryl left. ‘’Sometimes I wonder if at 

all she’s my blood…’’

GAVIN’S ROOM

The silence lingered on, winding its way across the four corners of the room as Gavin and his 


mom gazed stealthily at each other.
‘’Who is Beryl?’’ Mrs Edna, his mom asked again, watching him closely.

‘’A friend,’’ Gavin replied and pulled off his suit, then moved and sat on the edge of the bed.
His mother turned to him with her hands akimbo, ‘’A friend?’’ she repeated.
‘’Yes mom, a friend,’’ Gavin said and stretched out his hands to get his phone. ‘’Can I have my 

phone, please?’’
‘’You haven’t answered my question, Gavin. Who is Beryl?’’
‘’She is a friend I met today, my soon to be business partner. Any problem with that, besides 

who were you speaking with on the phone?’’
‘’I take it to be that she’s just a friend. If there’s any intimate feelings attached with the 

friendship, do away with it as soon as possible,’’ She said in a calm voice, then handed him 

back his phone.

Gavin tossed his head in disbelief, ‘’Mom! Are you for real?’’ he asked, point-blank as he 

collected the phone and dropped it on the bed.
‘’I am for real, Gavin. Just do as I say and we continue to live in peace,’’ She concluded and 

with that walked out of the room.
‘’Unbelievable!’’ Gavin shook his head as he stared at the closed door, then picked up the 

phone and dailed Rex number.


HEARTLAND UNIVERSITY

Heartland university had resumed lectures in full after two weeks break. That day being a 


Monday was the second week of resumption and since it was the second semester, no new 

student was seen. Students were seen in large numbers moving to and fro. while some were half 

running and half walking to meet up with lectures, some were walking in groups of twos and 

threes, chattering and laughing.
Cheryl was in the group of those half running and walking to meet up with lectures. She 

occasionally glanced at her wristwatch as she walked briskly and needed no one to tell her she 

was not just late but very late. But unfortunately for her, it looked like that day was a bad day 

for her coz in her bid to catch up, she incidentally hit her left foot on a stone along the path 

which caused her injury.
‘’Ouch!’’ she winced in pain as she stopped and bent down to have a closer look at the injury.

‘’Hey! Are you okay?’’ a voice asked behind her.
She stood erect and turned to see a tall fair guy beside her. ‘’Yea, I’m fine,’’ she replied.
‘’But you’re bleeding. Guess you hurt yourself, let me help you,’’ the guy offered and stretched 

out to collect her handbag.
‘’I’m fine, don’t worry,’’ she smiled painfully and started limping but the guy caught her by 

the arm and took her handbag from her, then placed a hand across her shoulder and led her 

towards the university’s clinic.
‘’Girls would never tell a guy they have a problem. They prefer dying in silence,’’ the guy said.
Cheryl just smiled and said ‘’Thanks.’’
Soon they reached the school clinic after about fifteen minutes of walking. Cheryl went inside

to be treated while the guy decided to wait outside for her. 

Cheryl came out about ten minutes later with a bandaged toe. ‘’Thank you so much,’’ she 

smiled in appreciation as the guy handed her the bag.
‘’It’s nothing dear. Hope you’re feeling a bit better now?’’ he asked as they climbed down the 

short flight of stairs that led to the clinic entrance and began walking towards the path that led 

to the lecture hall.
‘’Yes, much better.’’
‘’Can I get your number?’’
Cheryl stopped and stared at him. ‘’I don’t give out my numbers to strangers but because you 

helped me, I will.’’
‘’Wow! Thanks,’’ the guy grinned and brought out his phone which he gave to Cheryl who 

collected it with a smile. They exchanged numbers before they resumed walking…

SCOTRYL COMPANY
:
Beryl looked dead worried as she sat on the swivel chair behind her desk. That day seemed to 

be a day for her. First it was Gavin’s wahala and now his mom just called her to ask what sort 

of relationship she was into with her son.
‘’Maybe I shouldn’t have come to work today,’’ she said to herself and glanced at her 

wristwatch, it read 11:45am. She then stood up and decided to go have breakfast. As she stood 

up to leave the office, she looked around and realised there were some important files she had 

left untouched the previous week and that they needed urgent review. In anger and frustration, 

she sat back and powered on her system. In less than a minute, she became very busy with 

work…

:
***
REX’S APARTMENT
:

Rex apartment was no different from a typical bachelor’s house except that it was wide, clean 

and a flat instead of a two room apartment. He stayed there with his younger brother, Jayden. 

His parents were late but he had an uncle who visited often.
He was in the kitchen, behind the counter, trying to fix up something to eat when his phone 

rang.
‘’My guy,’’ he chuckled as accepted the call and placed the phone on his ear.
‘’I’m in deep shit,’’ Gavin said from the other end, sounding worried.
‘’Uh! What happened?’’
‘’I’m coming over.’’
‘’Like seriously, what’s wrong? … hello… hello,’’ Rex shouted into the phone but the line went 

dead. ‘’Yawa don gas be that nah!’’ he sighed deeply, abandoned his food and walked out of 

the kitchen to the sitting room.
:
***

BACK TO SCOTRYL COMPANY
:
Beryl was busy typing on her system when suddenly her office door opened and Ethel walked 

in, looking really pissed off. Ethel was Beryl’s friend and only her friends were permitted to 

walk into her office without knocking or formalities of any sort.
‘’Babe, what’s up?’’ Beryl asked and looked up from her PC after saving what she had been 

typing.
Ethel dropped her bag on the desk top, pulled out a chair from under it and sat on it with her 

chest heaving like one who just returned from a war zone.
‘’What’s wrong nah?’’ Beryl asked again with a worried look.
‘’A guy just insulted me and just to think of it that his mom and my mom are at fault, I’m just 
so annoyed right now,’’ Ethel complained bitterly.
‘’Like seriously,’’ Beryl adjusted herself on the chair. ‘’It seems today’s a bad day for us o.’’
Ethel was curious, ‘’What do you mean by that?’’
‘’I met a guy today and now his mom is like ‘’What relationship do you have with my son?’’

Gavin was lost on what to do or say but Beryl’s voice brought him back to reality.

‘’Hello, Are you there?’’ She asked after seconds of silence.

‘’Hum… Yea,’’ He stuttered.

‘’Any problem, did my calling you disturb anything?’’ she asked.

Gavin laughed a bit, ‘’No, not at all,’’ he replied. Within a spilt of second, it seemed he was lost 


in her world as he completely forgot he was supposed to act official.

‘’I apologise on behalf of my attitude,’’ Beryl apologised. One could tell from the way she 

sounded that she was drooling.


Gavin laughed romantically, ‘’Wow! Your attitude is now human, right?’’

‘’Yea, one hell of a being. The worst part of me,’’ Beryl said and laughed softly.

‘’Wow! Would you mind telling me the reason behind the bad attitude?” Gavin asked, trying 

to start up a conversation as he lay on the bed, facing the ceiling.

‘’Is it really that bad?’’ Beryl replied with a question.

‘’Yea, worse, if there’s anything like worse attitude.’’

Beryl sighed deeply without saying a word.

‘’Would you mind telling me about it?” Gavin asked again.

‘’Come on Mr. that’s my private life you’re trying to pry into.’’

‘’I’m sorry,’’ Gavin apologised and sat up. ‘’You called, why?’’

‘’Are you kidding me?’’ Beryl was surprised. ‘’You dropped your card before leaving. Gosh! 

You’re a real drama king.’’

‘’And you’re more than a drama queen,’’ Gavin gave a chuckle of delight. ‘’Guess I was able 

to tame the shrew?’’ 

‘’I doubt that young man. Don’t be too overjoyed coz I am like a chameleon.’’

‘’Really?’’

‘’Yea.’’

‘’Wow!’’

Beryl smiled to herself. ‘’Let’s talk about the reason why you came to my office.’’

‘’Can we talk it over at dinner?” he asked in a pleading tone as he heard his mom call out his 

name from the sitting room.

“Why?’’ Beryl demanded.

‘’Please,’’ Gavin pleaded, praying hard she says yes but Beryl refused to reply. ‘’I’ll text you 

the address,’’ he smiled winningly and ended the call without waiting for her reply, then threw 

the phone on the bed and rushed out of the room to meet his mom…

***



Meanwhile, in Beryl’s office, she kept on staring at the phone after the call had ended. She 

found it difficult to believe Gavin had the nerves to ask her out for dinner just the same day he 

met her. The one and only thought that crossed her mind as at that moment was ‘’This guy is 

practically insane but I think I’m beginning to like him…’’

BACK TO MR LEWIS RESIDENCE

SITTING ROOM

:

Gavin rushed downstairs just as his mother was about calling him again.

‘’You haven’t changed up,’’ the mother fused as he moved and sat beside her. ‘’What were you 

doing in the room?’’

‘’I got an important business call, mom,’’ Gavin smiled broadly as he remembered Beryl’s 

angelic voice.

‘’An important call?’’ his mother asked with her eyes glued on his face. It was obvious she 

suspected something fishy. ‘’What was the call about?’’

‘’Mom!’’ Gavin called.

‘’Gavin!’’

‘’Why are you so inquisitive?’’

‘’You told me you’re not going to the office today, so what was the call all about?’’ the mother 

asked again, ignoring his question.

‘’Mom please, let go. You called me?’’

The mother looked at him unconvincingly but decided to let go. ‘’Go change and come back.’’

‘’I’m okay mom. I’ll be going out again soon,’’ he said, wondering why his mother was gazing 

at him like one who she suspected is about to do something bad. ‘’Mom, why the long stare?’’

Again the mother ignored him and stood up. ‘’Have a chat with her,’’ she said and turned to 

Ethel, ‘’He will keep you company my dear.’’

‘’Alright ma,’’ Ethel smiled with pleasure. Mrs Laura looked at Gavin again suspiciously 

before she turned and walked towards the stairs.

Gavin waited till his mom was out of sight before turning to face Ethel who was smiling 

seductively. She was dressed in a red and white long sleeve shirt that exposed a greater part of 

her cleavage and a short black skirt with red stiletto heels and black designer handbag to 

match. She also wore a heavy makeup as well which made her look like a black African dog 

coz she was dark. He took his time to study her before cleared his throat and spoke up. ‘’Hi!’’ 

he began.

‘’Hi, you look so cute and charming,’’ Ethel complimented.

‘’Wow!’’ Gavin blushed. ‘’Thanks.’’

‘’My pleasure handsome.’’

‘’So, what’s up with you and my mom?” he asked, hoping to get a positive answer.

‘’She is in a better position to tell you that.’’

‘’Really! Is that why you’re dressed like a slut?’’

Ethel felt embarrassed beyond words. ‘’I might be friendly but I don’t take shits, Mr Gavin. 

How dare you?’’ She fired angrily.

Gavin swallowed hard. ‘’I’m sorry,’’ he apologised.

Ethel hissed loudly and stood up, ‘’Save it.’’

Gavin stood up as well, ‘’Upset?’’ he asked but Ethel ignored him and picked up her handbag 

that was on the glass centre table, then walked to the door.

‘’Come on girl, I said I’m sorry,’’ he apologised again but Ethel opened the door, walked out and slammed the door behind her.

Gavin knew better than to go after her. He had heard of angry girls beating a guy to a pulp and 

he didn’t want to be a victim, so he just turned and headed back upstairs. On getting to his 

room, he was more than shocked to find his mom standing by the window with a phone in her 

hand. He moved closer only to find out that his mom was making call with his phone. He waited 

patiently for her to end the call before speaking up.

‘’Mom, any problem? Why making call with my phone?’’

‘’Who is Beryl?” his mom asked. A questioned that left him dumbfounded and speechless. 

‘’Since when did she start asking him questions about who calls him or who he calls? 

Something isn’t right…

ECHOES OF PAST (DILEMMA) SEASON 1 EPISODE 3


Brought to you by:- Story Update

***

Meanwhile, inside the car, Rex was itching to hear Gavin speak and tell him how the second meeting 


with Beryl went but it seemed Gavin wasn’t ready to talk as his focus was on the car steering wheel, 

so he decided to do something.
‘’Mehn!, that girl is alluring. Her eyes are so full of love and unspeakable desires, I think I like her,’’ 

Rex smiled and paused to see Gavin’s reaction but Gavin only pretended not to hear him.
‘’Guy!, I’ll put you for one corner o, why aren’t you saying anything?’’
Gavin smiled in a way that showed only his upper teeth and glanced at Rex, only to find him staring 

at him with a look to kill but that only made him burst into laughter.
‘’This isn’t funny at all. Tell me what transpired between you both,’’ Rex pleaded.
‘’And why should I tell you?’’
‘’Because we planned it together nah.’’
‘’Really?’’
‘’Of course.’’
Gavin chuckled. ‘’It worked. I’m sure she’ll be more than confused right now.’’
‘’Wow! We really pulled a fast one on her. So tell me, Are you in love with her?’’ Rex wanted to 

know.
Gavin sighed deeply before smiling again.
‘’Gbam! I said it. I just knew it,’’ Rex screamed excitedly. ‘’But I don’t think that girl is capable of 

love,’’ he added sadly.
‘’Don’t worry, I’ll get her,’’ Gavin said hopefully. ‘’Let’s stop by and pop some bottles.’’
‘’Nope, evening will be better, 6pm or so.’’
‘’You’re right,’’ Gavin concurred. ‘’To the house then.’’
‘’Yea sure, lover boy,’’ Rex teased and they laughed…

***
MR SCOTT’S HOUSE

By now, Mrs Laura Scott had cried to the extent that her voice had become hoarse. She turned 

around and noticed Cheryl had left the room, so she lazily dragged herself up from the bed and shuffled downstairs where she met Cheryl already dressed for school.

‘’Mom?’’ Cheryl called and stood up.
‘’The trouser is nice but I think the top is too transparent.’’ The mother complained and sat on the 

couch.
‘’Mom, I need five hundred naira to enable me pay my way to school,’’ Cheryl said instead thus 

ignoring her mother’s comment about the cloth she wore.
‘’Go take it from my blue purse. It’s on the dressing table in my room.’’
‘’Thanks mom,’’ Cheryl smiled and ran upstairs. Seconds later, she returned and picked up her black 

handbag. She wore a blue jean trouser and a loose yellow fitting chiffon top.
‘’I still insist that you change that top and put on something…’’
‘’Mom!’’ Cheryl interrupted. ‘’There’s nothing wrong with this top nah. Anyways, got to go.’’ She 

smiled cheerfully and kissed her mom goodbye…

***
SCOTRYL COMPANY
Beryl suddenly became restless after she had walked back into her office. As she sat behind her desk, 

she was so confused on what to do.
‘’Rose,’’ She called while Rose, her secretary came running into her office.
‘’Rose?’’
‘’Yes ma,’’ Rose replied, wondering what had come over her coz the Miss Beryl she knew never 

called someone with her voice but always used the receiver.
‘’What do you know about the two young men that came here?’’
‘’Two young men?’’ Rose questioned, looking around in a way confused manner.
‘’You mean…’’ Beryl started to say but paused and stared at Rose. ‘’Call me Nora.’’
‘’Okay ma,’’ Rose said and courtseyed a little before turning and walking out of the office.
After Rose had left, Beryl picked up her phone and dailed the number on the complementary card 

but unfortunately, the call wasn’t answered.

‘’Excuse me ma, you called me,’’ Nora, the receptionist said with her hands folded behind her back.
‘’What are you doing here?’’ Beryl asked with her eyes still glued to her phone screen.
‘’You sent for me, ma?’’
‘’I did?’’ Beryl raised her head to look at her.
‘’Yes,’’ Nora answered, looking worried.
‘’Get back to work,’’ Beryl said and placed the phone on her left ear. Nora made to leave but she 

called her back. ‘’Don’t restrict anyone that is here to see me from coming into my office.’’

‘’But ma…,’’ Nora began but the look on Beryl’s face made her swallow her statement and walk out 

of the office…

MR LEWIS RESIDENCE

Gavin had decided to spend some time with Rex at his apartment after the second meeting with 

Beryl but a call from his mother asking him to get back home immediately cut short the good time he 

was having with Rex.

On getting home, he walked into the sitting room to meet his mom discussing with one hell of a girl 

who was dressed indecently and looked more or less like a prostitute. Gavin disdained the girl as he 

moved over to greet his mom.
‘’Welcome honey, We’ve been expecting you,’’ Mrs Edna Lewis said as she hugged him briefly and 

patted his back.
Gavin stood erect and put his hands into his trouser pocket. ‘’We?’’ he asked, his placid eyes darting 

from the girl to his mom.
‘’Oh yes,’’ the mother smiled. ‘’Meet Ethel, daughter of Mr Barry, the state commissioner of 

police,’’ She introduced.

‘’Hi handsome,’’ Ethel stood up and smiled seductively, then stretched forth her right hand for a 

shake. ‘’Nice to meet you, Gavin.’’

Gavin removed his hands from his trouser pocket and accepted the stretched hands with a forced 

smiled. ‘’Nice meeting you too,’’ he said dryly and removed his hand from her hold. He perfectly 

understood where his mom was driving at but was he ready for that?
‘’Where’s dad?’’ he turned to his mom and asked while Ethel sat back on the couch.

‘’He went out minutes ago, though he looked worried about something. Any problem?’’ The mom 

asked with concern written all over her face.
‘’Not at all, mom,’’ Gavin answered and started walking towards the stairs.
‘’Gavin?’’ his mom called as he was about climbing the stairs.
‘’Mom,’’ he stopped and turned back.
‘’Change up quickly and come downstairs immediately.’’
‘’Why mom?’’
‘’You will soon find out.’’
‘’Okay,’’ he said and began climbing the stairs. ‘’But it better not be what I’m thinking.’’
The mother looked baffled, ‘’What are you thinking?’’ She wanted to know.
‘’You will soon find out too,’’ he chuckled and ran up the stairs.

INSIDE GAVIN’S ROOM

‘’I just hope mom isn’t planning to start up something crazy,’’ Gavin thought to himself as he sat on 

the edge of his bed and brought out his phone. ‘’Wow! Five missed calls from a strange number,’’ he 

exclaimed and dailed the number again. ‘’I forgot I had silenced this phone,’’ he hissed as the person 

picked the call at first ring.

He cleared his throat and placed the phone on his right ear, then put his left hand in his trouser 

pocket. ‘’Hello,’’ Gavin Lewis on the line, may I know who I’m speaking with, please?’’ he said into 

the phone, sounding official.
‘’Yea, I know it’s Gavin,’’ A female voice sounded at the other end.
‘’Who am I speaking with please?’’ he asked again.
‘’Beryl speaking.’’
‘’What!’’ he exclaimed in surprise and took a few seconds to look at phone and then glance round 

his room just to make sure he wasn’t dreaming. Although he had expected Beryl’s call, it still took 

him by surprise…
