《9ice EATERY 》
(THE NEXT MORNING) (4TH OF MAY)
[Justin stopped the car and Wura stepped down with Jane holding her bag and they both walked into the eatery]
[Immediately they walked in, a loud sound came from a part of the eatery and Wura stopped on her track to see all her staff members and Nathaniel standing there and singing]
Everybody: Happy birthday to you /2x
Happy birthday to you boss/ Wura
Happy birthday to you
[They all sang with joy on their faces and they were beaming with smiles]
Nathaniel: Happy birthday pretty, live long and prosper dear 😍, I wish you long life and prosperity cutie ❤
Wura: Long life and prosperity? {she scoffed}
Nathaniel: Yeah {he replied with a smile}
Wura: Long life really? {she scoffed again}, what is in this life to live long for? {she asked with no expression on her face}
Nathaniel: {he was shocked at this question but he didn't show it} Everything, I mean, everything in life is worth living for, so don't be too hard on yourself {he said and winked at her, then he signalled one of her staff to bring something to him} [ Almost immediately, a cake was brought to him and he gave it to Wura, Wura stared at the cake for so long before finally talking]
Wura: Wow!, you bought a cake for me? {she asked with a smirk}
Nathaniel: Yeah, so do you like it? {he asked while smiling}
Wura: You really wanna know my answer, then I will tell you my answer {she replied while smirking}
[Almost immediately, Wura threw the cake at his face and everyone gasped loudly]
Wura: Idiotic fool, that is what you are, what is your problem because I don't get you and you all {she faced her staff} What is wrong with all of you?, is that why I hired you, I hired you all to work and not to do all these rubbish, are you all mad?, you people don't even know what other people are passing through and you do not even deem it fit to ask them which means only one thing and that is you guys do not care, but then the best thing you can do is to sing 'a happy birthday song' without even knowing what people are facing. You know what, all what you just did which you call a surprise is nonsense, I mean, total nonsense, as in arrant nonsense, just clean this place this place and get to work. And you {faces Nathaniel}, I don't ever want to see you here again, do you get that?, the next time I see you here, you won't like what I will do to you because it won't be funny, so you better get that into your tiny little skull and stay away from me {she yelled at them}
[Wura snatched her bag roughly from Jane and she rushed into her office]
[Immediately Wura left, Jane walked over to Nathaniel]
Jane: I'm so sorry about that, I didn't know she was gonna react this way
Nathaniel: It's nothing, I'm fine. I wonder why she is like that though {he said and Jane sighs deeply}

《WURA'S OFFICE 》
[Immediately she entered her office, she locked the door from behind and she walked to her seat, then she began crying]
Wura: Why did you guys leave?..... why.. why.. just why {she cried as she banged her hand on the table loudly} It's so lonely without you guys... I... m... miss you guys so... mu... much {she hiccups as she continued crying bitterly}
[Wura was still crying when the voice of a little girl sounded in her head, the little girl was singing and immediately Wuda remembered the little girl, she banged her hand on the table again and she sat on the floor as she continued crying loudly]
Wura: You guys didn't have to go... you should ha... have just stayed with me... you should have sta... stayed {she hiccups as her cries got louder}

(WURA'S MANSION)
[Wura is already in her nightie, she sat on her dressing table while staring at a picture, the picture was an old picture, inside the picture was a man, a pregnant woman, two little girls, little Wura] [Tears was already trickling down her cheek as she touched the faces of the people in the picture]
Wura: I miss you all and I still you love you guys, even more than I ever loved you,nobody can take you guys space in my heart {she cleaned her tears and smile sadly}
[After some minutes of staring at the picture, she laid on the bed and nature took its place.... she drifted off to sleep]
