In the restaurant Flora enters and sees Ezi drinking.

Flora: (approached) can you explain to me what all these Ezi stories are?

Ezi: (starts) oh! my God.. you scared me, what else is there?

Flora: why did this man tell me that you wanted to break up? Ezi I really hope this is all a joke and nothing more…

Ezi: (stands up) Flora, we seriously need to talk.

Flora: let's talk here, I don't want to hear anything, we're going to stay together, did you understand me correctly?

Ezi: you are really crazy! wanting to marry me... whereas between us it's nothing but fun Flora! Of course we didn't sleep together but I couldn't afford to marry a woman so easy like you

Flora: (shocked) easy for me?

Ezi: of course now that I've told you everything stay away from me

Flora: (stressed laugh) and you think you can get away with it easily like that? I'm going to kill you

Ezi: huh Flora slapped him, ezi was shocked, all restaurant patrons stood up trying to stop Flora

Flora: (Pushing them) let go of me! I'll kill him (struggling) She immediately calms down after a few minutes and arranges her hair

Ezi: (shocked) Shit! I can't believe I dated a crazy girl like her, she broke my jaw

Flora: Listen to me very well, you're not going to get away with this I promise you, I'm going to sue you idiots (she leaves)

In the big villa All the kondo family were back to their respective occupations, they were having breakfast together:

Bénédicte: tell Emmanuel, who is this girl we met at the restaurant

Emmanuel: no one !

Bénédicte: what? and why did she slap you?

Emmanuel: she didn't slap me

Bénédicte: liar, we saw you well

Emmanuel: Bénédicte, stop confusing me with this, would you mind (looking at her)

Benedict: hmm

Marie: So that's why you didn't want to get married? Are you interested in this girl?

Emmanuel: grandmother…

Amina: I hope not, because I have already told you that I will not accept a girl like her in my family, she cannot be my daughter-in-law

Emmanuel: but mom I love her

Amina: But can you hear yourself talking? It's out of the question for you to introduce me to this girl

BELIVE: But darling, what's wrong with you? isn't it you who was shouting from the rooftops that he just has to get married now that he has made superhuman efforts to have one You refuse to accept his choice,.. pff I think that you must be sick, we will go to the hospital tomorrow to get serious treatment

Amina: are you insulting me? whether he likes it or not, I will not accept this girl in this house, Emmanuel deserves better than that

Emmanuel (stand up suddenly): I'm not hungry anymore, let it be clear mom if I'm not going to marry her then it's that I'll stay single for life because it's her and her alone that I love (he goes)

Amina: but you're serious,come back here immediately

Marie: Amina, seriously you're very selfish, why don't you try to understand him with all these efforts he makes to please you, you only annoy him (she leaves)

BELIVE (stands); I leave you too (he leaves)

Amina: and you.. what do you mean to leave (fixing her)

Bénédicte (focused on her dish)...

Emmanuel had hidden while observing the scene and bursts out laughing: Emmanuel: no, but what are you strong.. hahahaha, he enters his room and throws himself on the bed: I think I have found a solution to get rid of my mother's seizures Immediately his phone started ringing.

*Phone call*

Emmanuel (answers): Hello! great, what is this call worth to me?

Ezi: yes hello! guess what!

Emmanuel: What!

Ezi: I finally broke up with Flora

Emmanuel: Hey! !are you serious ?

Ezi: Of course if

Emmanuel: that's good then! It's always me who has to take your mistakes...you have no idea the slap she slapped me (thinks the cheek that still hurts)

Ezi: Hey! She slapped you too, ahh! This girl is really a phenomenon to see again, she seriously needs to get treatment, she also slapped me and threatened to sue me.. oh my God why do I always come across these kinds of girls?.. pff

Emmanuel: huh! Are you serious

Ezi: Do I look like I'm lying?

Emmanuel: in short, you must really be wary of her

Ezi: That's what I'm about to do, anyway I already broke up with her that's the main thing

Emmanuel; okay, I'll leave you, we'll catch up tomorrow then

Ezi: Okay good night

Emmanuel: also to you (hang up) ah! my God what a shitty day... pff (rubs his neck) .

*End of phone conversation*

.Flora: (looks at the food) why did she wait for me? Ahh... mom that's not too much

Patricia: (arrives) she always worries about you but unlike her you don't give a damn, what's wrong with you! huh

Flora: leave me alone, I'm not humorous, I'm going to rest (move Hortense)

Hortense: (wakes up) ooh honey are you back already?

Flora: go to sleep (enter the room)

Hortense: isn't she going to eat?

Patricia: maybe afterwards, you know her, don't worry about her so much and go and rest mum, if she's hungry she'll come and eat

Hortense: So what about you?

Patricia: I have to revise my notes now I have to work harder to prove to these medical students that I am not just anybody (smile)

Hortense: ok darling good night then (she leaves)

Patricia: thank you too Patricia sits down and begins to revise,

later Flora arrives and finds her:

Patricia: I have to revise ohh, well, I reheated dinner, you can eat

Flora: (takes the food) thank you little sister Patricia(all thn writing) why you look so tired, it's not in your habits I think

Flora: (smile) and since when do you know my habits?

Patricia: you are my sister even if you are often boring and... really naughty I worry about you

Flora: Me and Ezi broke up

Patricia: Really! Hmm

Flora: looks like it doesn't really surprise you

Patricia: it was predictable, he didn't really like you either, did he?

Flora: (nodded): I must admit that I was more interested than in his money than in him, but... I liked him a little like that (imagines)

Patricia: hahaha hahaha you are really very funny

Flora: I'm not going to let him go like that, he has to pay me dearly

Patricia: hmmm

Flora: I'm going to file a complaint for making me false promises and wasting my time, isn't this punished?

Patricia: yes, but he's not going to spend two days in prison and he still has money so...

Flora: if it can allow me to have at least a few things from him (smile) it's perfect little sister, study well I have to go to sleep (she leaves)

Patricia: wow! what a materialist?

The next day flora goes to Ezi

Flora: knock knock knock

Ezi: enter

Flora (enters):...

Ezi: what are you looking for in me

Flora: game did not come for you

Ezi: (laughs) that's kinda funny really coming from you

Flora (puts the papers on the table)

Ezi: What's that again?

Flora: according to article 27 of persons (marriage) no engagement can be broken without a valid explanation I hope you agree with me

Ezi: huh?

Flora: (stands up) we have a hearing tomorrow prepare a better lawyer, I'm suing you for abuse of my time (smile) have a nice day

Ezi: uh! waits ! but what are you talking about? Are you crazy... are you obsessed with me? Eh

Flora: hahaha hahaha don't make me laugh you don't have much for me to be obsessed with you! but I don't like to have fun with me and I'm going to show you what I'm capable of (she leaves)

Ezi: (shocked) my God! She is really crazy this girl

In a street of adeticopé hortense was selling loincloths when a woman arrives in front of her shop

Mado: eh! it's you, hortense, it's been a while, how are you?

Hortense: Mado?

Mado: yes it's me, in the flesh

Hortense: what are you doing here? I doubt very much that my loincloths interest you

Mado: you're right, you know me well I don't wear such disgusting clothes I'm here to buy pretty loincloths in the shop just opposite and I saw you and I said to myself why not say hi?

Hortense: I'm glad you're fine but as you can see I'm at my job can you leave me now the customers can leave

Mado: okay don't worry Franck is fine he never talks about you or your daughters so I guess you don't know if he's alive or not. This not?

Hortense (nodded her head) I don'tknow nothing and I really don't care. . Leave me alone now

Patricia: Mom! Are you okay? (see Mado)

Mado: oh you grew up my little one... did she become courtesans like her sister? (hortense was in shock) oh you don't have to make that face, we all know that your daughter uses her body to have what she has today... I wonder if she got it from who even (smile)

Patricia: Madam, I really think that you are going overboard, I ask you to leave us alone and go your own way.

Hortense: (smiles) of course when you use your body to seduce a married man you think everyone does the same

Mado: (furious) what do you mean by that?

Hortense: Patricia my darling ignores her, she is pity

Mado, I am sorry! Wait a minute to see what I'll do to you...

Mado holds Hortense by her hair and pushes her down…

Patricia: (shocked) mom! ma'am what's wrong with you?

Mado: you! Who do you think you are to raise your voice in front of me?

Patricia: (restrains herself, anger)...

Flora: (come) who do you think you are to push my mother?

Mado turns around and SPLASHHH, she had received a phenomenal slap from Flora

everyone was shocked... Did she hit a lady the same age as her mother? what a curse!

Mado: (shocked) you brat, I'm going to...

Flora: lower your Mado tone!

Hortense: (shocked) Flora…

Flora: I'm not Patricia, even less my mother, so don't dare talk to me as you wish... I'm just warning you because next time I'll cut your feet off!, so don't dare bother my family is this understood?

Mado: you hear about me, I won't let you get off easy, you girls Bad manners (she leaves)

Hortense: how can you slap Mado, Flora! she's older than you and you have to respect grown-ups, is that clear?

Flora: mom, respect starts with yourself and I'm not Patricia who always listens to what you say, (looks at people) what are you looking at? ahh (to Hortense) I've always told you not to sell your loincloths at the edge of the market anymore, it's really pathetic... So stop that now (she leaves)

Hortense: this girl is going to kill me but why is she so rude?

Patricia (smile): I'm going to help you sell today, what do you say?

Hortense (sigh): okay

In the evening Flora, Hortense and Patricia were at the silent table

Hortense: Flora I know you are really stubborn and have your own way but your way of doing things is not reasonable

Flora: Mom let me eat please, will you? I am really hungry

Hortense: oh my god what a rude girl

Patricia: you should listen to mum at least and ..

Flora: you, don't you dare say a single word or I'll kick your ass you let this… This woman pushed mom and you dare tell me to listen to her, this slap is you whoi should have had it fools

Hortense: Flora!

Flora: what! what? I can't take it anymore, I'm sick of you, you're not listening, I'm sick of it

Suddenly there is a knock on the door Hortense is going to open and she hears a noise...

Franck: (furiousx) who do you think she slapped my wife for? where is your daughter ?

Patricia: Dad?

Flora: he came (smile) I'm going to teach him a good lesson he'll never forget

Patricia: (surprised) Flora!

Flora goes to the living room where Franck and Mado were there

Mado: honey, she's here

Franck: hortense, didn't you teach our daughters the manner limits? why do they have to behave like badly educated girls? you trying to shame me!

Hortense: (smile) like that was your problem, take your wife and get out of my house Frank: what?

Flora:: didn't you hear it? or should she repeat you a second time? take it and go away! sir…

Franck: Flora respect me I am your father

Flora: hahaha hahaha look at this gentleman now he remembers that he has a daughter named Flora! uh sir get out of our house now quick

Franck: (takes Mado's hand) let's go… anyway I have nothing to do with this family anymore

They leave and Hortense begins to cry

Flora: now stop me all that, it's been 13 years now think about something else don't bother us with your tears (she leaves)

Patricia: Flo... mom don't worry i'll talk to her

Hortense: she's more down than me, it's her way of protecting herself, being tough with others (wipes her tears) don't worry

Patricia: I can't believe dad could have said that (hugs his mother) calm down mum, he disappoints me a lot,

Flora: (enters her room) what woman cares what the man who left her can say? aahhh it's annoying doesn't she have any respect for herself? (furious)

Emmanuel: (surprised) what a witch! Ezi you really fell on a..pff

Flora: hahaha hahaha of course! Judge, what women would not be won over by riches? I was happy to have an independent boyfriend uh but he lied to me and to…(in tears) and broke my heart

Emmanuel: cry... is she crying? really what a manipulative one

Judge: madam calm down please.. after listening to each part I finally decided that Mr. Ezi apologizes to madam and compensate her with a sum of 100 thousand francs

Flora (thinks: 100 thousand francs but it's too little! in short, money is money) thank you, Judge, even if nothing can redeem my honor (in tears)

Emmanuel (think: which actress)

Ezi: I'm sorry for everything Ezi's lawyer gives an envelope to Flora
