Daniela

"Papa, i don't like the way you take possession of everything when you suppose to share everything including money that my brothers always send you and Mama," Daniela talked to her father impolitely. So, you have grown big to have the edge to talk back at me?" "Papa i will say anything i want to say to you, afterall you are a wicked man, huh."

Obodo became quiet only to wonder the insult. " i have always been a good father but Daniela has chosen to take her mother's side against me
instead of settling our issue amicable," Obodo thought.

It's true that Obodo hits his wife even when Daniela and siblings were growing. They witnessed all that but his sons have always separated their fight, beside they agreed that they have not to interfere in their parents' affair. Soon his sons became independent and were sending them money. There was this particular money sent, Nneora insisted that the money be shared equal. Obodo was upset, it wasn't acceptable to him. It resorted to quarrel.

"Papa you must share it 50/50 with mama, rightfully mama supposed to have a lion's share. Daniel was good at abrupting interrupting her father. As Nneora was raining abuses and insults on her husband, Daniela was also being abusive, speaking to her father aggressively. She boldly flag her mouth. Obodo kept scorning at her just to shut her mouth but his effort was abortive.

The more he warned her not to invade in their matter, the more she was remembering more irritating words, her attitude was quite obnoxious and her mother was not willing to correct her deviant character. "no doubt your naughty lifestyle keeps you single, no man will accomodate such an arrogant and wayward thing like you as a wife, woo buguiling beauty, Daniela. You have to retreat before..."he paused Daniel being good at abruptly interrupting her father, immediately banged on her father, "you wicked and diabolic father.  You are evil, i regret having you as a father," she hissed.

Thinking that it wasn't loud enough to send her message across of her irritating mood, she went close to her father and sighed heartily to his ear, "you are so annoying Papa, gosh!" Obodo attempted hitting Daniela with his staff but Daniela dodged the hit but began to drag the Staff with her father, he felt broken, that was really a big slap to his face he imagined, he stayed shocked, "you sass, abd banter words with me that wasn't enough for you, a daughter talking at her father, no respect, is this how you are going to live with a man? No man will ever marry you, you will never marry," Obodo said with a bitter and concrete heart.

"God forbid, my daughter will marry," Nneora declined the curse.
Her friend visited shortly, she sensed that she quarreled again with her father, "Daniela must you quarrel with your father all the time?" Ezinne counseled.

Few days later, Daniela visited
Ezinne but met her quarrelling with her mother and challenging her to a fight. Before she could know what was happening, Ezinne had already slapped her mother. Her mother was calmed for some minutes before she left Ezinne unutterably.

Daniela turned instinctively, she couldn't face Ezinne, "so appalling that people can't practice what they preach, see Nneoma, who asked me to condole with and accomodate my father, Nneora the mother-mary hitting and fighting her innocent and decent mother. Nwanyi Manari, the virtuous woman," Daniela grieved and felt her pain. Why is it hard for human beings to practice what they preach?" she reiterated rhetorically.

Though Daniela remained unapologetic to her nonchalant atitude to her father and never bothered to asked for his blessing till his demise.

Many years later, she resorted to cohibit with a certain man whose identity was never disclosed, no traditional wedding, in fact, no legal bond between her and the man. The last time people checked, she had two kids for the strange man. People rumoured that the man she cohabit with, was an "Osu (outcast)"
