Adaora reached out to Mma over the phone.
"Mma, I have some news for you," Adaora announced
on the call.
"So much has unfolded in the village. Unfortunately, the
King has passed away; your Uncle, who was the Eze Igwe III of the Amazu Accent Kingdom,
has been laid to rest," shared Adaora further.
Mma was overwhelmed with shock and began to weep
uncontrollably.
"Please, Mma, try to compose yourself. The news of the
King's demise wasn't the sole reason for my call," Adaora attempted to
soothe her.
"Your parents were overjoyed with the gifts you sent
them. Moreover, your father is poised to be crowned the next King, becoming the
Eze Igwe IV of the Amazu Accent Kingdom," she conveyed the uplifting news.
"Do you grasp the significance? You'll be Princess, and
your mother will ascend to the status of Queen," Adaora continued,
building on the joyous future awaiting Mma.
Yet, Mma remained distraught over the loss of the King.
"I regret mentioning the King's passing initially; you
really must gather your strength," Adaora admitted remorsefully.
"I'll be returning to the city in a couple of
days," she then informed Mma.
The very next morning, Mma made her journey back to the
village to reunite with her parents.
Her parents welcomed her with immense joy, having not seen
her for years.
"My child, your mother and I deeply regret the way we
treated you during your time of need," Eze Okoro confessed.
"We were blinded by our desire to protect our standing
within the church, not realizing it only exacerbated the issues," Eze
Okoro continued, expressing his remorse.
"It's all in the past now, Dad. Those times were
challenging, but I am thankful for where I stand today," Mma responded
with grace.
"When you left, you were pregnant. What happened to the
child?" inquired Mma's mother with concern.
"I didn't bring him with me. I was supposed to pick him
up today, but I hurried back to the village after hearing the news from
Adaora," Mma clarified.
"His name is Nkem; he's grown so much," she shared
fondly.
"He's a boy? This is wonderful news! At least there is
someone to continue your legacy after your reign," Mma's mother exclaimed
with happiness.
"Mma, whose red car did you arrive in?" Eze Okoro
asked with curiosity.
"The car is mine; thanks to my friend Eriana's help, I have
now achieved considerable success in the city," Mma proudly explained.
