Chapter 21: Visiting Our Sister 4

Chidera opened his mouth to protest, but the words caught in his throat as Somto's presence loomed over him

like a mountain.

"Listen carefully," Somto continued, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous pitch. "You will prepare a proper

apology. Not shalf hearted excuse.

Not scowardly deflection. You will look her in the eye and take responsibility for what you did. Because this

time, Chidera, there's no running away from it."

The weight of his brother's words pressed down on Chidera, leaving him unable to respond. He nodded stiffly, his

face pale, his mind racing with dread.

Somto studied him for a moment longer before turning on his heel. "I'll give you ten minutes," he said over his

shoulder as he walked toward the door. "Don't makecback and drag you out myself."

"But | didn't do anything wrong!" Chidera decided to protest, his voice trembling yet laced with defiance.

Somto stopped in his tracks, turning back to face the boy with a glare so cold it could freeze fire. "You didn't do

anything wrong?" he repeated, his tone eerily calm, the kind that sent chills down the spine. "You pushed

Nnenna down the stairs. Is that reason good enough for you?"

Chidera flinched at the accusation but quickly straightened himself, his jaw tightening as anger flared in his

eyes. "She deserved it!" he snapped, his voice rising as if trying to convince himself as much as his brother.

Somto's eyes narrowed dangerously, but he let the boy continue.

"How dare she not givewhat | asked for?!" Chidera continued, his words tumbling out in a rush. "Everything

in this house is mine! She's just a servant who happens to have the slast nas us. She has no right to

defy me!"

The room fell deathly silent after his outburst, the weight of his words hanging heavily in the air.

Somto took a slow, deliberate step toward him, his presence towering and suffocating. "A servant?" he repeated,

his voice low and laced with menace. "Is that what you think of her?"

Chidera's bravado faltered slightly under his brother's piercing gaze, but he crossed his arms and stood his

ground. "It's the truth," he muttered.

Somto's laughter was cold and devoid of humor, a sound that made Chidera's stomach churn. "Lettell you

the truth, Chidera," he said, his voice sharp and cutting.

"The only reason you have everything in this house is because of the family name. A nthat means nothing

without the people who bear it. And Nnenna? She's worth more than every selfish, entitled word that just came

out of your mouth."

Chidera's lips parted to argue, but Somto silenced him with a raised hand.

"You think everything is yours?" Somto continued, his voice rising with controlled fury. "Letmake one thing

very clear. You have no right, no right, to treat anyone in this family, or this house, as less than you. Not Nnenna,

not anyone."

He took another step forward, his shadow falling over the boy. "And if | ever, ever, see you pull something like

this again, Chidera, i will have to take extrmeasures. Do you understand?"

Chidera's defiance melted away under his brother's wrath, his shoulders slumping as fear took over. He nodded

reluctantly, his voice barely a whisper. "Yes."

"Good." Somto's tone softened slightly but remained firm. "Now get ready. You have an apology to make."

Somto turned and walked out, leaving Chidera alone once more. The boy sat down heavily, his mind racing. A

flicker of stubbornness began to creep into his thoughts again, his pride still holding firm.

'He doesn't understand,’ Chidera thought bitterly. ‘None of them do."

But deep down, the boy knew there was no escaping the consequences of his actions.

By 4:00 p.m., the Achebe family was all set and ready to leave. The atmosphere in the car was tense, and not a

single word was spoken.

The chauffeur, sensing the heavy silence, drove carefully, his presence as unobtrusive as possible.

Their destination was Royal Hospital, and the thought of going there seemed to agitate almost every member of

the Achebe family to their core.

The Queen sat rigidly, her face

unreadable, while the second, third,

The King, however, broke the unspoken rule of silence. He leaned back in his seat, gazing out of the window at

the blur of the city passing by.

Unlike the others, he wasn't engrossed in his phone or pretending to ignore the weight of the situation. Instead,

his mind wandered.

'Am | making the right choices?’ he thought to himself. For years, he had dismissed Nnenna, treating her like a

mere shadow in their grand palace.

Yet here they were, on their way to visit her in a hospital bed. The irony wasn't lost on him, and it gnawed at his

conscience.

'This girl remindsof.... | would rather just ignore her. But then what will my subjects think of me?' He thought

soberly.

The silence persisted as they neared

The Queen finally glanced at the King, her expression unreadable but her eyes filled with questions she wouldn't

ask.

For once, even she didn't have the energy to speak, choosing instead to swipe absentmindedly through her

phone.

As the car pulled up to Royal Hospital's entrance, the family braced themselves for what was to come. None of

them wanted to be there, but they knew there was no avoiding it.
