Secrets don't die
<h1>*EPISODE 24</h1><h2>“Secrets Don’t Die”*</h2><p><br/></p><p>Rain beat hard on the chapel rooftop as Aisha knelt, crying silently. She had run from her room straight to God — not for answers, but peace.</p><p><br/></p><p>Behind her, footsteps. She didn’t look back.</p><p><br/></p><p>Deniem knelt beside her.</p><p><br/></p><p>“I saw the result,” he said softly. “We’re not siblings.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Aisha’s lips trembled. “But why would they lie?”</p><p><br/></p><p>“Because love scares them. Because people like us… aren’t supposed to find something this real.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Their fingers touched.</p><p><br/></p><p>Meanwhile, across campus, Zara barged into her mum’s house unannounced, Raymond behind her. The older woman, Madam Ajoke, stood frozen.</p><p><br/></p><p>“Why?” Zara asked, voice cracking. “Why did you lie about Aisha and Deniem?”</p><p><br/></p><p>Madam Ajoke sat slowly. “Because Deniem’s father left me for her mother. I couldn’t stand the idea of their children being happy when I was left with nothing.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Zara stared. “You ruined lives.”</p><p><br/></p><p>“I protected you!” she shouted. “From pain, from betrayal!”</p><p><br/></p><p>Zara turned to Raymond. “I want the truth now. All of it.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Raymond pulled out a flash drive. “Everything is here. Her deals, the DNA switch, the bribes. But there’s one more twist.”</p><p><br/></p><p>“What?”</p><p><br/></p><p>“Aisha’s real father... is alive. And he’s not who she thinks.”</p><p><br/></p><p>At the university gate, *Teejay* was already printing the photos of Zara and Raymond in his media room. But someone snuck behind him.</p><p><br/></p><p>A click.</p><p><br/></p><p>He turned. It was *Lami* — Aisha’s roommate — holding his laptop.</p><p><br/></p><p>“You’re not posting anything,” she said coldly. “Because if you do, I’ll release your own sex tape first.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Teejay’s mouth dropped.</p><p><br/></p><p>Lami winked. “Game on.”</p><p><br/></p><p>Back in the chapel, Deniem kissed Aisha’s forehead.</p><p><br/></p><p>“You’re mine now. No more secrets.”</p><p><br/></p><p>But as they walked out into the rain, a black car pulled up slowly…</p><p><br/></p><p>Inside was a man. Old. Dark glasses.</p><p><br/></p><p>He rolled down the window and stared at Aisha.</p><p><br/></p><p>“My daughter,” he whispered.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>
