Kate: explain what Mike? She responded quietly..
Omg! I can't believe this..
How did you guys get to this place? Since when?
Why didn't I ever notice anything like this😩😩...
And I was just telling mom not long Ago that I'm scàred for you.... You don't Talk about girls or ever had any girlfriend... only for me to see you both doing this stuff... This irrítatíng stuff..
Mike: already on the ground.... Begging Kate
Please Kate don't tell Mom about this.. please.. he said while begging Kate
Kate: I won't even dare tell Mom... How can I? So that she can fall into depressioñ? No way! I'll never..
Mike: 🙏🙏🙏..
Kate: so you're the one that led my brother into this èvíl stuff. She said looking at chigozie..
Chigozie: no.. no please that is not What happened please...
Kate: for goodness sake you're married chigozie and you have kid.. Why are you still doing this rubbishh..
Chigozie: please Kate can you just allow me explain to you? Please. I'll tell you everything. Just don't shout or let any third party know about this... He said calmly to Kate..
Kate: explain what? What do you want to explain again? I have seen everything..
Chigozie: hmmm... Can we talk please? Me and you alone!
Kate: you and who alone? Why? What are we talking about? How you turned my brother into a gày? Or what do you want to say now that I don't know?
Mike: Mike it's all my fault please.. he has nothing to do with this..
Chigozie: keep quiet! He said to Mike..
Kate: why should he keep quiet?
Chigozie: allow me explain everything to you please.. I believe you will understand better if I do..
After that you can decide whatsoever you want to do about it..
Kate: hmmm... Ok meet me outside the house ! She said and left the room...
Mike: stood from the ground and sat on the tip of the bed slowly... Looking so scàred..
Chigozie: calm down! Mike just calm down ok..
Mike: how can you tell me to calm down now? What do I do from now? What if she tells my mom.. my mom is too emotional she will spend all day cryiñg about it..and I don't think I can afford to see her that way..
Chigozie: I know.. but don't worry I know what to say to Kate! She's not a kid... And I believe she will understand what I'll say to her..
Mike: this is all your fault chigozie... It's all your fault.. if you had listen to me and not come here or leave when I asked you to do so..we wouldn't have gotten to this stage... Omg what do I do now? He said looking so afraid.
Chigozie: this is not the time to be blaming anyone...it won't solve the case at all..
Mike: please just leave me alone...just go awày please.. I don't want to see you..he said angrilyy..
Chigozie: hmmm... Let me go and meet Kate outside...
He said and left immediately..
Mike: oh God.. this is not how I planned my life! I never included my family getting to know about this... How do I rearrange this stuff now? Oh God my mom must not get to know about this! No way.. he said and lie down on the bed staring at the room pop
Scene 2 ( chigozie and Kate... Outside )
Chigozie: please I want you to try and understand all the things I'm about to explain to you now please.. I promise to be honest all through.
Kate: I'm listening oga.. oya talk!
Chigozie: firstly let me correct your statement.. I didn't lead your brother into gày.. what happened was that.. few weeks after we both started staying in the same room in the hostel.... I found out that he's gày!
Kate: 😳😳hmmm...
Chigozie:( started explaining how everything went on between him and Mike and how he started developing feelings for mike)
About 20 minutes later..
Kate: hmmm is this a movie or something? All of this stuffs happened between you both?
Chigozie: yes! Please believe me I'm not lying to you..
Kate: WOW! I can't believe this... So after getting to know about his sexúality you still became closer to him?
Chigozie: Yes! I see him as a kid bro to me.. then, I never had any feelings towards him.. and I was not full happy finding out he's gày.. but I had no choice.
Kate: if I understand your explanation very well.. the both of you have had sexx?
Chigozie: Yes!
Kate: Jesus..... Omó!
Before your wedding night and when?
Chigozie: yesterday at the proposal company!
Kate: hmmm... Omó I'm lost now! I don't even know what to say anymore. All I know is that I want to protect my brother! I don't think I can allow him continue doing this stuff.. no, never..
Chigozie: Catherine... He called her name in full.
I don't think you will be helping your brother if you don't allow him to freely express him self.. this is who he's actually.. you can't change that again. Any other thing apart from this will only húrt him more..
Kate: so I should leave my brother to you for you to continue doing that shít with him?
Chigozie: no please. That is not what I'm saying! Kate I know you're educated and you understand full well all I'm trying to say! You know the exact thing your brother is and you know changing for him will be the most difficult thing ever... Please let help him together
Kate: help him together how?
Chigozie: allow me be with him.
Kate: eeh? Mr Man ain't you getting all my explanation since? I don't want my brother to continue doing this and please face your family..
Moreover you're married self.. how do you expect me to leave my brother with you when you have other responsibilities to take care of..
Chigozie: my family is a different thing and from what I explained to you I told you how everything about the marriage started...
Kate: hmm.. it's ok please. Thank you for protecting my brother. Thank you for staying with despite knowing his sexúality and thank you for not selling him out for people to know! I really appreciate you for that..but trust me.. there is more to my brother than just being gày. I can't allow that to ruîn his life..
Chigozie: hmmm..
Kate: please don't ever come back here again! And I'll talk to my brother also to distance him self from you.. I don't want our mom to find out about this.
She said and entered the house back...
Chigozie: Kate...Kate...Kate... He tried calling her back.
Hmmm... This will be tough one. He said to him self as he opened their gate and entered his car and drove off...
Scene 3( Kate and Mike In Mike's room)
Kate: he already explained everything to me.. he also told me how he found out about you be gày..
Mike: Yes!.. he knew long ago..
Kate: why did you keep this from us? We're your family..
Mike: hmmm... How can I not keep this away from you both.. being gày is perceived èvíl in our society here.. mom is a very emotional person....she keeps on reminding me about her Grandchildren and the rest.. how can I bring myself to tell her that her son is a gày and he's being fvcked by his fellow man? Eeh Kate? Is that possible? He said as his voice changed and he was getting teary already.
Kate: hmmm.. but you should have told me... Maybe there's a way to stop this act.
Mike: there is no anyway to stop this Catherine. I have tried to stop this since were kids but I couldn't.. the feelings keeps on growing and growing on daily basis. I have lived over 20 years of my life this way! In fear and secret. I can express my love freely.. because I'm scàred of what the society will do.. what my family will do first.
Kate: exhales heavily... So you mean you can't change?
Mike: Kate! Change what? How can I change what I didn't put on myself... You guys don't understand what gày people pass through daily trying to leave like normal people and adjusting to what the society here in Nigeria wants.. Kate it has been hectic for me.. ah swearr.
Emotionally, I have been drainedd.. trying to please others..
Kate: hmmm it's fine. How do you feel about your friend?
Mike: cleaning the small tears coming from his eyes..
You mean chigozie?
Kate: yes him.
Mike: hmmm chigozie is my best friend. He's someone I have loved secretly until I opened up to him... But he was straight and got married.
Kate: and what about now?
Mike: now? I currently have a boyfriend! But he kept on insisting on wanting to have something with me..
Kate: and don't you want him?
Mike: hmmm... I really don't know! I just want to be happy.. stay with someone that will give me happiness and understand what I want for myself..
Kate: I can't tell you who to love Mike.. you understand your heart better... But from me I prefer you stay with chigozie... That guy like you..
Mike: Kate he's married now!
Kate: yes! I know.. that is just a bonus for the both of you.
Mike: bonus? How?
Kate: hope you know you're in Nigeria! You have to keep aside all those big big dreams you want for yourself and your partner and love life.... Let face reality ok!
I understand all you want for yourself but as it stands now... If you want to continue living your life in Nigeria you should stay with chigozie because he's the only you will stay with and nobody will suspect anything since he's married already..
Mike: what about my current guy?
Kate: I don't know any other guy Mike! I'm doing all of this for you... So you can continue to be your self.. and so that mom won't get to know about this.. imagine if mom sees you with another new friend...
Mike: hmmm... Thank you so much Kate! I understand you better..
Kate: anyways I told him not to come back here again...
Mike: why?
Kate: I just did that so he won't feel I'm so linient and free. Even though I know he won't listen to me..
Then Mike's phone rang out...
Kate: maybe he's the one calling...
Mike: Carried the phone..
Yes! He's the one..
Then he answered the call and put it on loud speaker..for both of them to here
Chigozie: howfer..

Chigozie: which one is what is it? What are you doing now?
