"Hey calm down bro!" Isaac touched Phillip on his shoulders. "I'm getting confused please you two should help me." He expressed with worry written all over his face. "Phillip, don't worry, I know that she will be alright." I encouraged. Does it mean that Phillip will have to take care of Kate until she is mentally okay? This is becoming terrible. When I thought Lilian and Phillip will be fully reconciled. Those were my thoughts as we all left Kate in the ward with Phillip standing. He has no choice but to nurse her to health. That is the price to pay for committing fornication. Sin has repercussions. Sin is costly. No one goes without facing the punishment of sin. It stings and bites hard. On reaching the house later in the day after the naughty incident with Kate, I brought out my phone and discovered that Lilian had given me eight missed calls. Gosh, what the hell is happening? Why is she calling like that? I became anxious. I promptly called back but she could not pick up. That made me more nervous wondering what had occurred. " Hello baby girl, what is it about Kate and Phillip? I heard that the lady has run mad, and Phillip is with her right now." Lilian later phoned. "Who told you?" I inquired, feeling troubled. "Don't hide anything from me. I am your bestie. You need to lay all bare. I must confess that I am deeply hurt by the news. Just when I was considering having him as my husband. Now this. He will have no choice but to take care of her. Look at me too, I need a man who will take care of me. Who will accept the father of my child? This is getting complicated for me. I am worried stiff." Lilian opened up as usual. I could feel her pain. This is not good at all. But what can she do but be patient? " Patience is needed on your part. Allow Phillip to do his part for now. Please it will not be long, your man will come to you. Don't worry yourself bestie." "How convenient for you to talk like that? Phillip will be stuck with her! My man is with another woman!" She cried out. "Stop it, Lilian, you are not being fair at all. Remember that they were about to wed. Be empathic please!" "Yeah, that was my agitation before. I knew that he is not mine. It was my mistake though, so don't bother yourself. It's my big loss. My child is a bastard, isn't it?" "Oh no, not again my baby girl. I will come and see you. Is Annabel with you?" "Hmmm, Annabel has been rubbing this on me. She is my thorn in the flesh. Making me feel pain is her business in this house." "Oh my God, just calm down and ignore the foolish girl. She wishes to be in your shoes. It's pure envy. Don't mind the silly girl." I sighed as I hung up. I became unsettled. How do I make my Lilian calm? It's not easy but she has to pay for her sins of carelessness. Phillip called, later on, to talk to me about my friend Kate. "Please I have to go home to refresh, I need to see you too." "How has it been?" "She woke up and when she saw me, she started to cuddle me expecting me to respond. But I couldn't. The psychiatrist warned me to say sweet things to her. You need to see me here. I have to lie and lie, alleging my love for her, kissing her on her forehead like a small child. She kept on saying, " Oh my Phillip, I thought that I had lost you. I'm so glad to have you back, please don't leave me again." "So what was your response?" "My sweet potato, I'm all yours forever. I love you so much, my heart aches. I cannot stop loving you forever." "All lies Derin, all lies indeed. I'm tired. This is the price of living a bad life." Phillip confided. "Not to worry Phillip, it's only for a while. Let's make sure she is healed. But I have another plan though." "What is it?" He asked with all eagerness. "Is it possible to look for a man who can play along with her? I need to discuss this with Isaac. Maybe one of Isaac's friends." "Hey, this is a very good idea. I think I will be glad to have another man who looks like me, to play the part. He could wear one of my favorite shirts to see her. This is getting interesting." Phillip explained. "Yes, brilliant idea. Let us discuss this with Isaac and the psychiatrist." I uttered. "Yes, that will be necessary to know what they think."
