MY KING SAW MY STAR 89 PREGNANT FOR A GHOST 6

Soon they got to the Nwaiwu's resident and picked them, though they were driving their own car, they all headed to the house where lady Izogie resided with her son's though they were grown men now, one was a Doctor and the other was an Engineer but they were in Benin main town.

Odo Junior soon appeared at the entrance of an all white building and waited, he could feel it, he was already feeling lighter meaning he will soon go away from this planet finally he can find peace.

Lady Izogie dosent do much these days, since her sons take care of all her financial needs to the core, she had just finished breakfast and was thinking of going to the shopping centre at university road to get some few things that the house needed.

She was passing into her room when her eyes caught the gateman opening the gate for some vehicles to come into the compound who are these? she asked her self, Osaro and Osaze would be coming over the weekend except she sends for them apart from them she hardly entertains any other visitors and Ali the gate man knows this..... so why? and who? .....

Immediately they droves in and Ali shut the gate he dashed for the house, rushing into the sitting room he told lady Izogie that the children of the King Wanted to see her, though he wasn't making sense. What king? whose children ???? this is ... they are not even familiar to..... ah! what's this feeling again... her head grew big and she felt chills why is this feeling back? What is this presence? are they the ones emitting this cold aura????

The people outside are they not good people? she wasn't really scared she had a female companion who her sons employed to acompany her anywhere she liked, she also doubled as the house keeper even through she is younger than lady Izogie! but they look harmless more like Royalties there are even guards with them, so many well dressed people....

Ali invite them in she finally said.

Yes madam! Ali replied and dashed out to invite them in.

Everyone followed Ali into the living room and as usual the Prince gestured to his daughter to allow him take the lead as before.

Welcome! welcome!! rang out lady Izogie's voice, to what do I owe this massive August visit invasion???? sorry I mean who are you people??? after some taughts she said, please please sit down.

Lady Izogie sorry for barging into your house like this, though we got permission from a strange place which you will understand later. I am Prince Martin Obaseki and this is my daughter Princess Ayanna, you must have heard of her ... by now lady Izogie eyes grew big and she exclaimed.

I said it! you are royals but..... I hope all is well that you visit my home like this? then her eyes strayed to the elderly man and woman, who stared back at her in wonder .... why do they look familiar now that they are up close? am sure I have never seen them before ah! still what is this chill?

Lady Izogie I will allow my daughter to give you more insight to why we are here I hope we bring some happiness into your life.

Madam Odo wanted to stand up and view the pictures on display, the children pictures of lady Izogie and them, some school photos, matriculation and convocation, birthday pictures, so many.

Lady Izogie my name is Princess Ayanna and am here in respect of someone dare to you.

Who can that be? I hope my babies are fine? for a moment she looked scared....

No not that and they are fine, keep in mind that whatever we want to tell you has to do with completing your joy, it has noting to be scared off so please relax.

Many years ago you knew Odo Junior Nwaiwu am I correct? Ayanna asked.

There was a stunned expression on lady Izogie face, nobody have ever linked her to her love before, ..... how? how did she know of him, now that she thinks of it this elderly couple has similarities to ... hey! you people are giving me the chills, what is this ?

Who is that person? she asked, I can't remember him and what has he got to do with me? its been many years already she has come to terms that she was a single mother even without her own parents blessings she had done her best to raise their kids, apart from the occasional question of their origin they were any mothers dream of children.... so why are these people here asking about her sons dead father?

What she can't remember me or she is pretending not to ? Odo Junior was worried so was his parents.

Ayanna read her taughts and said, Lady Izogie I will give it to you straight ..... Ayanna breaths down, since you want to stall but be reassured we are here to do something noble. If you have heard about me then you will know I inherited so special abilities from my great grand mother and as we speak you will hear some strange things .... OK leave it! I will try my best to make you understand it all.

More than two decades ago you met and fell in love with Odo Junior Nwaiwu the feeling was mutual, both of you secretly tried to get your parents to accept your love, but both parents wanted other things for you and so you didn't get the support you needed even at that, your love for each other grew stronger and you decided to force your parents hand by getting pregnant, you tried for such a long time but it didn't happen.

Ayanna then looked to see how lady Izogie was taking what she was saying, seeing her engrossed in the memory of the past, she continued on.

On sad day, he came to you all he wanted was to be with you, it was like your feelings for each other tripled that day both of you couldn't understand it however, you showed each other how you felt and that ended being the pregnancy that brought fought your twin.

what you don't know was that your lover had died earlier that day and he just wanted to fulfill the wish both of you had that was why he came to you, he tried to inform you to take the children to his parents but you didn't understand him, he tried to tell his parents about you but yet he couldn't finish passing his message because they news bearer of hips death was already at his door step, he left his father abruptly and disappeared what was shocking for him was that he couldn't move on to the world of the dead on inquiry he was told his mission was not finished here at all, until such a time he can put all his unfinished business together he remains here.

All this while he could not find anyone to pass the message to you, or his parents by the way the elderly couple seated there was his parents Mr and Mrs Odo Nwaiwu.

Looking up with teary eyes she stared at them again, I said it, then Lady Izogie stood up surprising every one present and went to the elderly couple and hugged them tears were streaming down her eyes she looked for them but she couldn't find them, especially the times her sons asked her about their family. Even now, if they wanted to marry from respected families then their roots must be known, no one was willing to give their child to someone without roots, she also knew Odo was Igbo but to avoid so many questions she names them in her own people's name now everything will be set straight.
