EPISODE 1

It's just like every other normal day,

issa left for the mall to get something for her husband as they re celebrating their 6th wedding anniversary today.

Her face was filled with excitement as she walked in. One of the workers saw her and frown, tapping his fellow "what's that woman doing here" he asked "Hank pls don't be too fast to judge people" Andrea warned and continued his business.

But Hank won't take it so he walked up to her "what do you want ma'am" he asked in not so polite manner "I'm here to get the most beautiful and expensive jewellery for my husband," issa replied excitedly "Look at your environment,like where U re" Hank said pointing around the mall,"do you know where U re,this is Jones mike mall,one of the most expensive jewellery mall in the city and in the country" he said irritably. Issa in the other hand didn't flinch she stood her ground and said "yes I know so, I just to get....."get out of here,we don't run a charity case here" Hank interrupted angrily.

"what's going on there" A deep voice asked as foot steps approach

By now the drama has already drawn people close as they all stood and watched the drama unfolds

Some keep whispering to themselves as they make faces while some said it out loud "throw that dirty woman outta here

"call the police,she is here to steal a jewellery, look at her,it's either you people take care of this or I'm never buying anything here" one woman said and others supported her

"yes take her away she stinks" they all chants

"Calm down everyone" the man approached with caution

" thank Goodness you re here, she was trying to stole a jewel for her pathetic husband " Hank said and that was rewarded with a slap "you can insult me all U want but don't U ever call my husband, do you understand?

Hank saw red "you will pay for this he snapped"

"enough!!!" the man said "I'm the manager ma'am, is it true that U try to stole and jewelry? he asked politely

"No, I only came to buy jewelry for my husband and he just start causing a fuss" she answered.

"Come with me" He leads her away, as other customers murmurs among themselves.

Issa was extremely happy as she followed the manager, "finally someone polite" she said wetin her.

"Do you know why I didn't call the police on you?" issa eyes widen "wh...whattt..what do you mean?" she was too shocked to believe what she just heard " Please sir I only needs to get a gift for my husband" she plead

"Do you want me to call the police?Pls don't try my patients"

"But I have every right to shop here" issa said more like angrily

"who do you think U're to say that"?

"even the owners needs a VIP cards to get jewelries here, do you have it?" he asked"I bet you don't even a dollar" he smiled triumphly

"this is my jewellery mall" issa blurted

The man stares at her for sometime but laughing

"No" issa said more like reminding herself something

"I will allow you leave the mall through the back door" the manager answered and left her there,

Starring at the *EXIT* on the back door.

She felt something, pains, "cause I'm dressed this way or maybe cause I'm not rich but I'm wearing my first wedding anniversary gift" the only thing I have ever gotten from my husband and I love it" She smiled remembering when he gave her the gift and she walked out of the jewellery mall and went into a local jewellery shop.

Walking inside she met an old man at least in his late 60s Dusting his shelves and cabinets, She greeted politely with smiles on her face as she scan the shop

"This place isn't that bad I can get something good here, My husband will love it" she smiles sheepishly

But the shop is not different cause the man wasn't happy to see her

"what do you want?" he asked looking at her from hair to toe.

"Show me Ur most beautiful and expensive jewelry" she beamed

"Heheh", the man laughed sarcastically

"Please young lady, don't waste my time" the man said turning to continue his dusting. "sir please I have money" she pleaded thinking that would change his mind but he continued, completely ignoring her

she stood for what seems like 35mins until he turns to her

"alright I will sale to you so u will leave my shop" he surrender and she leap with joy in her heart. He brought all the cheapest jewel he have in his shop.

"Here" He placed them on the table, smiling,"she won't even noticed that they re fake, she is poor, that means she won't even notice a thing" he assumed

"No I can't take them" issa said. He frowned a little"what do you mean?" He asked a bit angry "These are fake and the cheapest kind of jewelries, apologies but I can't take them,give me something worth while please" she plead again

"if you re not taking it then leave my shop" the man said taking all the jewelry inside their boxes. "okay" issa simply said and turn to walk out "wait" he called back curious on how she was able to identify that they re all fake and cheapest.

Maybe she isn't as bad as he thought of her, so He decided to test her by bring the most expensive jewelry in his shop and it's delicate that's fake.

" let me see how she will be able to identify the fake and the original," He said inwardly smiling

"Here" He placed the the two jewelry on the table.

They re too identical male bracelets

Both Gold and sparkly ice diamond used to design it.

They shine bright and elegant and both the same.

Issa walked back and saw the two jewelry her eyes light up

The Black man smith really did a great job but my....."she paused.

Observing closely one of the jewels is much brighter and shinny

while one is not but it looks classic and old.

"I will take this" she said pointing on the one that's old and classic

*You don't want this" the man asked pointing on the shinny one. "No Mr Nike" She shakes her head in disapproval.

The man who's name is now Mr Nike was surprised

"How did you know my name? He asked surprised

"isn't what's on Ur shop sign board?

"Yh is it, for a sec I was surprised"

Issa smiled and continued

"why do you need the old one" he asked

"cause it's the first bracelets worn by the first great ruler and king of the Zinites,This masterpiece was the first gift giving to the king by his people who talk all their diamonds and gold to make it for him,upon his return from the battle with victory and it's represented peace, love and loyalty of the people and it's been in existence since 1309 but got lost during another sec world war and was redesigned by...."she paused again
