MURMURS IN THE ROOM
WE OPEN ON FOUR FEET ON HEELS. They start to walk in.

VERA
As we all know about Mr Wena, the accountant was sacked this morning because of the discrepancies in the company’s account, we are glad to introduce to you the new accountant, Miss Omone. Miss Omone please introduce yourself to the company.
OMONE
(stands)
My name is Miss Joy Omone, the new accountant of Winive.

BUT WHILE THE COUNTRY BATTLES TO SURVIVE, THE TWO SISTERS BATTLES WITH LOVE— IN A VERY UNUSUAL WAY.

Winifred’s eyes stray to the picture on the newspaper in front of her, she furrows and picks it.
IN THE PAPER — CLIVE DANIELS picture
HEADLINES:

    SET OF ‘THE STARS’ AN INTERNATIONAL MOVIE IN CALIFORNIA, USA

    LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL

Winifred smiles passionately gazing at Clive’s picture in the paper, lost in the realm.

Vera notices Clive’s picture on the newspaper in front of her; she smiles with emotions and picks it.

THEY BATTLE FOR A MAN WITHOUT EVEN REALIZING. BUT WHILE ONE IS FOR LOVE, THE OTHER— FOR STATUS.

INT.    THE MARTINS – DAY
WINIFRED
You don’t love this guy
VERA
And I will never love him but does it matter if I’m his wife?

Marriage is not a joke.
VERA
Yes it is a status and I have to secure it no matter what? From now onwards call me, Miss Vera Clive Daniels.

ONE WILL DO ANYTHING TO HAVE HIM

INT.    THE MARTINS – DAY

All I know is I’m marrying that man no matter what.
(dips crunches into her mouth)
CRUNCHING SOUND

And if he doesn’t want to marry you?
VERA

He will. Remember I said, no matter what?

(sees their confused look; surprised)
You don’t know what Kubnomi is?

Even an Ibomite fetus knows what Kubnomi is.


AND THE OTHER ONLY HOPES
