   Chapter 2 continues...
                  
                      *************
Debby, you can't do this, can you? "Bimbo asked." Yes, I can dear."Debby answered, wiping her face with her handkerchief. " I'll be fine.
Okay, now?
Yes, now."Debby answered "

     Welcome back to the show, we've been having Deborah Olawale for almost an hour now and I hope you are listening attentively to her story. Over to you Debby.
   Thank you."Debby said."

Down, down and down he went and that was the end of my father.
Debby? What did you just do? Oh my God! Years was pouring from my mother's eyes. I sat down and broke into tears too, she sat on the floor and raised his head and placed it on her laps.
  She wailed and screamed, I did the same, she called his name several times but there was no response.
I was so scared, my mother saw it and embraced me, we both cried on each other shoulders.
   Minutes later, I heard a siren, an ambulance was at our house and the police officers including two of my dad's sisters that I called Big Momi.
   My father was carried into the ambulance, my mother was handcuffed, I gave the officer my hands too but he shoved me aside and pushed my mother forward. My mother was struggling with everything.
  I can remember my daddy's sister especially the one I called Ghana Mama kept calling my mother a Murderer. I was young and naive, I didn't know what to do but I was sure of something, something bad has happened to my father and mother.
   My mother was thrown into a black maria, Ghana Mama and her younger sister held my hands and kept saying things that I can't  remember. It was a terrible experience.
    I cried and cried till the van was out of sight.
