^one of my favorite song

Sekemi's pov

"Mom, we need to talk" I said and hang up not waiting for her reply.

Yesterday was really a bad day, he doesn't love me but that stupid Adaeze. I sat down on the couch waiting for mom.

Few minutes later there was a knock so I rushed over.

"Good afternoon mom"

She enters as she scans the room and looked at me. "Why do you have bags under your eyes" She asked sitting.

"I couldn't sleep because of him" I replied and sat on the wooden chair opposite her.

"Ire?"

I nod.

"What happened?" She asked still looking around like she is looking for something.

"He doesn't love me"

"And?"

"He loves the lady planning his mother's birthday party" I said.

"Who is she?"

"Adaeze"

She looked at me "You have to get him back sekemi"

"How?"

"I don't know" She shrugs.

"You have to know mom because you were the one who told me to leave him" I said coldly.

"Get rid of the adaeze" She replied in the same tone.

"How?"

"Wisen up sekemi, you said she is the lady planning his mother's party so you have to destroy the party and make the blame go to her"

I thought of a plan but none were coming.

"I don't have an idea mom" I said

"Poison his mom but the drink or food should be served through adaeze" she said smiling devilishly.

"Hmmmm..."

"Sekemi, make it look real, be nice to everyone throughout the party so you won't be a suspect. You will poison the drink and tell one of the ushers to give it to adaeze"

"Wow mom, you are very sharp" I said.

"Since the party is tomorrow, i will send the poison in the morning"

"Hope it won't kill her?" I asked. If there is one person I would kill it will be that adaeze.

"Yes, it will only cause a little harm"

"Thanks for coming, I hope the poison works effectively"

"Yes, anything just for you to marry ire" she replied.

Adaeze pov

I just finish mixing the ingredients for one of ire's mom cake.

"Hey" I turn around and saw Cecelia waving at me. She is a round short girl with brown eyes .

"Miss Stella needs you" she said.

"Okay, I'm almost done with the cake" I reply.

"Let me help you with that"

"Thanks"

I walked out of the production room, the restaurant is quite scanty since it was still morning and we get customers me re at evening. I place a knock on Stella door and entered.

"You called me?"

"Yeah, just wanted to ask what time you are going over to ire's house"

"Everything is all planned so I would be there around 12pm" I like it looked at the time, just about two hours left.

Next Day

I'm at ire's house doing the finishing touches on the garden. I worked yesterday so thing would be perfect just like his mom wants.

"Ma, where should I keep this extra wine?" One of the ushers asked.

"Just place it on any of the tables" I reply.

"Hi adaeze" sekemi greeted. That is odd. She's with ire's mom.

"Hi" I faced his mom"Good evening ma, you aren't dressed yet?"

"That's non of your business, just do your job" she answered sternly.

"Sorry"

She walked away leaving sekemi with me.

"I want to help"

"Thanks, we are done with everything"

"Okay, I hope we can be friends adaeze"

I wanted to reply but someone beat me to it.

"No, she can't be your friend"
