CHINASA
(emotionally)
Ziko, sometimes, I just wonder what
type of boyfriend you are.…

Zikora faces the sky and sarcastically shakes his head

ZIKORA

ZIKORA
Ok, no, I didn’t , I’m sorry.

Pauses awhile and stirs

ZIKORA CONTD
But in my defence, it got busy at
the saloon.
CHINASA
Ok, I understand, but..

Chinasa withdraws from zikora’s arm and shows him her

hair

Ziko, look at my hair, does it look
good anymore?.…

Linus chuckles

LINUS
Zikora, do you really wanna play

ZIKORA
Daddy, which game ? I’m confused...

Linus holds his ear and stirs at Zikora

LINUS

draining men off their resources

Linus Points at zikora

serious about this warning.

Well All I’m saying is that he should be
careful

Odogwu, there is only one elder
here , who is not busy barbing and
making money
LINUS
Aka mkpi, Kai, papa ejima you and

PAPA EJIMA

LINUS
Ejimus, you are not a visitor in my
saloon, this is your place any
time, any day. You can always
access the fridge for drinks when

PAPA EJIMA
Pray yours would be like the ones
that has it in the positive side

Linus Unwraps Apron from customer #1 after spraying

methylated spirit on his hair

LINUS
Positive or negative, I would not
want to depend on my inlaw for
anything especially when he is a
man.
PAPA EJIMA
Linus, why?
LINUS
These little children can
indirectly insult us through our
own daughters oh once they notice
we are not buoyant enough
especially when they are rich.

Customer #1 Points at Linus

 CUSTOMER #1
Gbam!! I know someone with such experience. It’s
essential people try to work hard
individually or collectively to
avoid insults whatsoever.

Customer #1 Pays and shakes Linus then heads toward

exit as he waves at Papa Ejima

Papa Ejima waves back at customer #1

PAPA EJIMA
E hen, nna k’odi
(To linus)
Odogwu that might be very true oh

misbehaving, let me get all the
resources I can from him while it’s
still open..

Linus laughs

Well, my bother, let’s take it
outside while I escort you

Pap Ejima Stands from his seat and heads towards exit

PAPA EJIMA
That’s right my brother, thank you.
(To zikora)

Oh, that’s true , tell her to keep
it with the people she bought it
from till we return.
ZIKORA
