WHO WILL BE HER MATES

chapter two

"""ARRANGED DATE """

The chilly evening got Ella to dress in her most and well covered ladies jacket, Ella is Mr. Uzo's first daughter.

A woman who's addiction is to smoke and seduce any man she came across with, her fathers wealth and her selfish character kept her unmarried till this day.

Her wayward personality kept on chasing almost the potential suitors away. A beauty men finds so difficult to take their eyes off, her body physique looks extraordinary. Her blue eyes demented any man that she came across, spotless skin, as she walked through the restaurant door.

Henry was the only child of Mr. Daukon Ukariwo, his late mother Jane was one of the most beautiful ladies during her time. Though her family wasn't one of the wealthiest family, but she was fortunate to get married to a rich man.

Jane was on her way to the bank when suddenly a black rang rover car stopped beside her. Jane was still walking along the road when the guy in the back sit of the range rover car wined the glass down.

"Hello pretty lady, can i give you a ride said Mr. Daukon". "Sorry I am already close to my destination replied Jane'. "Ok can i at leat have your number please; he requested".

Jane is one woman who considered giving a guy her number, more expecially if the person asked politely. "Ok, Mr. but dont bother me with your calls she said, definitely not, he replied".

Who in this world would have a beautiful lady's number and wouldn't bother to call her every seconds and minutes of the day. Mr. Daukon decided to wait and see exactly where she's going. He watched her walked into the bank. He immediately ask the driver to pull over and pack the car. Mr Daukon decided to walk himself inside the bank.

Jane was disappointed, the loan she applied for her poultry bisness was declined. She demanded to see their branch manager and was also told that she had no valid asset for her loan. Jane was devastated and as she was on her way out from the bank, she walked pass Mr Daukon not recognising him.

Mr. Daukon felt something wasn't ok with the look on her face. He went after her immediately, to know what went wrong. "Hello pretty, without any response from Jane, Mr Daukon continued calling out to her". Fortunately she realised herself and immediately notice some foot steps behind her. She quickly turned to know who has been following her, "you again, she said".

'Yea, I forgot to ask you your name said Mr. Daukon, are you insinuating that the reason you followed me here was just to know my name? Jane asked anxiously". 'Well the truth is that the mood you left the bank, made me to follow you and to find out what could be the problem'. On hearing that, Jane frowned, "what would you do if I tell you my problem, well I can see you don't have anything reasonable to do with your time". 'Please can I at least know your name? Mr. Daukon requested again'.

Jane could no longer hold her emotion, as tears started rushing down her chicks, "please what's the issue, and if you don't tell me, I am not going to leave you said Mr. Daukon". Jane bent down, still crying.

'Please stop crying, what ever the situation is; this is not the end of the world, said Mr. Daukon as he layed his hand on her shoulder, trying to console her'. "What do you mean, please stop giving me the impression that all will be ok cause I have gone through a lot she said still crying, I have waited for so long for this day to come, yet I was disappointed".

'What do I do now"? Jane cried out loud.

At this point Mr. Daukon was confused, cause he doesn't know what the problem is, neither does he know what he could do in order to console her. "Last year, my parents and siblings all died in a car accident, I am the only one left in my family". Said Mr. Daukon.

Jane looked up trying to understand what she heard, "wait you lost your family in a car accident said Jane". 'Yes I did Mr. Daukon replied'. "Yet you are here like nothing has happened. Yes, do I have a choice said Mr. Daukon".

'Oh no! I am very sorry'. "Please if you don't mind, what exactly was the cause of the accident, Jane said trying to clean off the tears on her face". At this piont, both of them started talking in a civil manner, Mr Daukon shared his family's accident story, as well as Jane who ended up telling him all about her, the reason why she was emotionally unstable and as well as her name.

From that moment, they both console each other.

On getting home, Jane gathered all the misplaced project materials together. Now she is fully aware that her so called poultry farm will not come to existence.

"Why is life so difficult, I can't continue to be struggling this way all the days of my life".

Mr Daukon Ukariwo, on the other hand could not stop thinking of the lady he met earlier today, after his parents were buried, their family lawyer brought his father's will.

Since he is the only surviving child everything automatically belongs to him.

For months now he had thought of what he could do with the money, but all to no avail. "I think this is an opportunity for me to help someone in need", Said Mr Daukon. 'Hopefully if I offered to help, I pray she accept'. "Of all the ladies I have come across, this one is different". 'I think there is something special about her'.

That night Mr. Daukon couldn't sleep. The next day he went to her and offer to help her out with the money she needed for her poultry farm business.

Since then, both families became very close and they both ended up together as husband and wife. Jane gave birth to a son. few months after giving birth, she was diagnosed of cancer and seven years later she died.

Since then, Mr. Daukon made up his mind not to get married to a second wife and he has been living happily with his only child Henry.
