INFLICTION_ PART SIX
_ "Have you ever thought of living the most horrible life? Why am I in this situation? Am I the only one in the vastidity hell of life?"
_ Take a good look at others, why am I still like this?"
_ Hmmm, take a deep sit and continue reading the true life story if Feyikemi and have your mentality changed positively."
With spite on Feyikemi's living exposure in Shomolu, regardless to her physical challenge, her moral was attentive that Shomolu inhabitants would only have a gesture of appreciation without helping with vital consideration (i.e money or shelter). Darasimi had been negatively intimidated to falsely not recognize Feyikemi as her twin sister. Chief Òlòwópòròkú had done a great job to display a very wrong role on Feyikemi that eventually caused a cruel hatred with the two. It got to worst when Darasimi would spit and accuse her of collecting money she had not worked for.
Unknowingly, Feyikemi continued her life in loneliness with no one to shelter her nakedness (tentatively). She sustained her stomach with the little some water eyes (helper) walkers could offer after the huge help she rendered.
Not minding her physical challenge, Feyikemi would travel meters to full her stomach in a very temperamental and hectic day. It was raining and at the same time fade sunny, Feyikemi sat under a tattered canopy that could not shelter her body from the rain. It eventually became heavy and avoidable. She had no choice than to evacuate the area she was hiding to move to a safer place. Coincidentally, she sited an uncompleted walkway at the opposite of the express way, at the very intense of her crossing the long and wide road, she was viciously crushed by the high speed rate of ten tyre long trailer, who unanimously believed he had only crushed on packs of disposed waste. The heavy and continuous rain stopped people and passerby to rescue the young girl who was motionless in the pool of blood. Only exclamation and shouting was faintly heard outside the noisy rain. Believed to had already died out of surviving from that.
In respite attention, a blue painted Camry with tinted window parked beside Feyikemi's body to realised the body in a case of coma, the fair helper helped Feyikemi to Shomolu's general hospital.
The same place she (Feyikemi) was given birth to _ Where the hope of her life can be retained if possible.
Dr. Fajubi Douglas, the new chief doctor in the state hospital was luckily in charge of Feyikemi's coma.
After three months in coma_
No positive response from the doctor since months now about the little girl of age fifteen. Several blood sample tests were carried out since Feyikemi had lost pints of blood, _the blood match can only survive the little girl_ Dr. Fajubi included.
It happened that only chief Òlòwópòròkú and his daughter's blood matched and was to be used to survive the little girl.
_ how is that possible? Chief exclaimed during a susceptible phone session between the doctor and chief.
CHIEF ÒLÒWÒPÒRÒKÙ RECOVERED LOST MEMORY_
_ The event started on the 21st of February, 2009, a very sunny weather. Mrs. Ajayi checked in for employment in my empire, the long waiting at the entrance gate delayed by her. She was eventually called in after a signal call from the building.
_ Mrs. Ajayi secured herself to work as the house cleaner, she had worked with me for a year and one month. Then it happened, on a very Sunday morning, she (Mrs. Ajayi) was bent and tired, she collapsed in the waiting room after series of chores she had incurred herself to. I entered unannounced and met her relaxed on the sofa, with just a twist of my eyes. I stricked my eyes to show a love emotion towards her open dusty robe wrapped behind her waist. I couldn't hold the urging until I found myself to had completed several rounds with the pleading and crying she raised. We promised to make it a secret after a tip of 20,000 naira.
_ For months, Mrs. Ajayi kept the bad day from her husband even when she had the third pregnancy after she had lost many during her deliveries. Knowing fully that the pregnancy belonged to me, she declined objectively to my request for the twins in exchange of huge amounts. I can remember the very sad day, I caused the death of Mrs. Ajayi after she was informed on the death of her daughter.
_ "Oh my God! Please doctor, what should be done"?
It was already a late action to be taken, since Feyikemi had already passed away some minutes beforele.

LITERARY DEVICE AND APPRECIATION.
IRONY : this is mostly display led when Mr. Ajayi ignorantly nurtured Feyikemi who he believes to be his biological daughter
Another irony occurs when chief Òlòwópòròkú was very eager to pay a huge amount for his twins. Undoubtedly, he was in haste for children without his knowledge to have had one already.
