🏪My First Time🏪
🍓🍓💦💦🍆🍆🍇🍌🍌🤏👈🏼
🥶 (episode 1)🥶

Tonia was a beautiful girl from a respectable Christian home. She lived a life that pleased God right from her childhood, she was always cautious of her lifestyle, she was still a virgin at 23.

It’s been over 2 years since she left home for college to study medicine. Her mother’s last words to her before she left were “Tonia my daughter, live a life that would please God and keep yourself till marriage and don’t let any man take your pride away”. These words were her backbone and strength whenever she thought of slaking.

Tonia kept herself all through year 1-2, but the story changed when she met Eric in her 3rd year. It was raining on that fateful day and she was stuck in class, waiting for the rain to stop before embarking on her journey home. While waiting, there was a restaurant opposite her class and Eric was seated with his friends eating and drinking.

Eric was from an influential and rich family. He was known in school for living a lavish lifestyle and for also being a chronic womaniser. He was very handsome and girls fell in love for his enchanting charisma. He was the dream of every girl in school and beyond.

As she waited for the rain to stop but it didn’t, she got into the rain, hastening her steps so she could get to her destination faster. Not minding her foot steps, she slipped on a slippery ground and fell drastically.

Eric who was seated with his friends at the restaurant, quickly sighted her and ran to her aid. On getting there, Tonia was bleeding on her head so they had to quickly put her in his car and drove to a nearby hospital around their school.

On getting to the hospital, she was admitted and Eric had to wait till she recovered since he didn’t know any family or friend or hers to contact. Around 5pm in the evening, Tonia opened her eyes to the sight of Eric.

“Hey are you ok” he asked, “yeah I’m fine” she replied, please what happened and where am I?” She continued, “You fell so hard and was unconscious, so I had to rush you to the hospital” he said. “How much is the bill” she asked, “Don’t worry, it’s already cleared” he assured.

Tonia thanked Eric for being a lifesaver and prepared to leave for her apartment. “I can give you a ride if you don’t mind” he said, “you have done much already and I wouldn’t want to stress you any further” she replied. “Ok take care” he said and left the hospital.

As at that time, Tonia didn’t know who Eric was and what he was known for. She finally got home, took her bath and slept. The next day, Tonia had a test to write so she hurriedly did some revision before leaving for school. While at school, she looked out to see if she would catch a sight of the kind man that helped her yesterday. “I don’t even know his name” she said to herself.

After the test, Tonia who was known to be a brilliant student, finished up early and left the hall. She was on her way home when she spotted Eric smoking with his friends at a hidden corner in the school.

She was a bit shocked and hastened her steps so as to pass them unnoticed. “Hey!” She heard from a far, and quickly turned to see who it was. Eric had already sighted her and started walking closer. “Hi” she said calmly, “You are the girl from yesterday right?” He asked, “yes I am” she replied. “Hope you are ok now?” He continued, “I’m good” she replied. “Ok take care” he said and was about to leave and she stopped him by asking “please what’s your name?”, “I’m Eric and you” he asked, “I’m Tonia” she replied.

As the atmosphere started becoming awkward, she broke the silence by asking him “do you know that smokers are liable to die young?”, Eric paused for a minute and then replied “yes I know but I don’t smoke all the time”. “But why do you smoke at all?” She asked and Eric gave her an amused look and finally replied by saying “Smoking gives me a kind of joy nobody can”. Tonia was a bit short of words and smiled before finally saying “you haven’t tried everyone, and I pray someday you find someone that would give you the kind of joy smoking can’t beat”.

As Tonia walked away, Eric stood there dumbfounded as he watched her leave. “Who’s this girl? Why haven’t I seen her around school before? She isn’t smitten or intimidated by me” he thought to himself. As Eric walked back to his crew, he wasn’t interested in the weed they were smoking anyone as he couldn’t get his mind off Tonia. He kept asking himself “Who is she?”

TRUE STORY

" He abandoned me when I was having my child, now he is apologising.

I got married to someone I love so dearly, and he claimed to love me too. Before our wedding, I had a beautiful relationship with him.

Our wedding was properly organised, my family played a vital role in the wedding and everything was smooth.

Now the wedding is over and marriage has started properly. He treated me well until I got pregnant.

My pregnancy journey wasn't an easy one. A lot of things changed. I was always sick, and I wasn't active like I used to be.

He will return from work, and I haven't prepared anything for him to eat because I was always sick, feeling so weak.

He was always complaining and quarrelling me for something that wasn't my fault. I started battling with BP during my pregnancy.

One time, I went for antenatal, and the doctor was so worried about my BP. They started managing it for me.

When it was time for me to give birth, it was so complicated that i almost lost my life.

Thank God for my family, who came through for me. My mum came to carry from the hospital where he left me, claiming he didn't have money for the bills and took me to another hospital for proper treatment.

With the help of my siblings, we were able to sort all the hospital bills.

While I was at the hospital where my family took me to, my husband never called me, and he didn't come to check on me.

After I was discharged, my mum took me back home for proper care and attention as I just had a baby through surgery, adding to all the complications I encountered, so I really needed that care

My husband didn't call me, he didn't visit, nothing. One year past, two years past

In the third year, he started calling to ask about his daughter, I didn't want to deprive my daughter from knowing her father, so I opened up the communication for both of them. Each time he calls, I give the phone to my daughter straight because she is the one he is calling.

Last year, he started asking questions about her school. How much is the school fees? How much are her books. And he started paying for the first time

I have been shouldering the responsibility for 7 years. My daughter will soon be 8.

Recently, he started begging my family that he wants me to come back.

After the ill treatment I got from him, he is asking me to come back where?

He is claiming he didn't know what came over him.

My mum is considering his apology, and they are asking me to give it a thought

Do I have to think about anything? How come everyone forgot so soon how I almost died? "

*TEMPTED SOUL*

EPISODE 10

As my body landed on the dusty ground, I was in panic and I didn't know what else to do. I was just staring at them like a zombie. One of the men started walking towards me with rage, his face was so dry and I could see his chest dancing up and down. His nose flared up, and his eyes as sharp as the eyes of the vulture.

I feared for what might happen to me at that moment. Everything was horrible and unbelievable. Just then I turned to my left and my eyes caught sight of the knife I'd used earlier to cut the rope from my legs. A voice inside of me whispered into my ears to take the knife and sprang into action.

I glanced at myself and begins to wonder which of the courage and that of the power will I used to confront these angry men. These men who will just dash me one blow and I will collapse. After thinking for a while, still laying on the ground like a hungry tiger, then a tangible idea flashed into my head.

Pronto, I reached out for the knife and held Alfonso's head as he was still laying on the ground in pain. I put the knife to his neck, threatening to kill him with it. For whatever reason that gave me such courage and boldness of mind, I didn't know.

"Drop the gun or I'll kill him. Drop the gun now." I commanded with the voice of authority. The guy looked at me for a while and gently dropped his gun to the ground. The other one was still looking at me and pointing his pistol at me.

"Fire boy, pick your gun, stop acting like a kid here. Why would you obey the voice of this little rat? Have you forgotten your adventure and rank in this game?" The other guy, whose name was Jack, said and was still pointing his gun at me.

"You have to surrender to her to save the boss's life. Boss, life is important. Remember the deal on this game. I really need to leave the country as soon as possible," he replied.

"What the heck? Are you out of your mind? Let the boss go to hell; after all, we can escape with the money."

"What do you mean? So you want to betray him. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes, that is the best option now. What do you think?"

"We don't have to do this. Remember, he is the central chief of this game. He deserved to be rewarded," the guy was still trying to negotiate as Jack cut him off without even giving him a chance to finish.

"You're going insane. I can see that you are out of your mind. If you are not ready to go with me, then I have to kill the two of you and find my way out of this place." I was scared when he said those words. It hit my heart like a tsunami. I was scared because he meant every word he said.

If this guy was going to kill his boss and his colleague, which meant I was going to be involved in the killing. The boss never promised to kill me, so I needed to do something quickly before time ran out.

"Enough is enough. Why do you want to betray your master? Why do you want to betray him after all he had done for you?" I fired, but inwardly I was scared and trying to make use of my number six.

"He betrayed you; did he explain the reason why he did so to you? So, I will betray him for betraying you. Nobody is clean here; we are sinners. The street you see is only the strongest and fittest who survive it. Now I think I am the strongest and fittest here." He responded to me.

"Jack, remember how I picked you up from the street and made you the man who you are today? You Jack," he pointed his finger at his face.

"You have the right to talk at me in such a mannerless way, you have the audacity to look into my eyes and said those imagination words to me. I wouldn't believe you would do this to me after all I've been through for you. You are heartless." Alfonso muttered in regret and amidst tears.

"Who do you think you are by the way. Because I've been keeping my cool and let you use my head, not anymore. We have to end it here." Jack retaliated.

"Jack, do not forget the roof where you put your head when rain was beating you to stupor." Alfonso said.

"You're speaking in parables. I don't want to be entertained or listen to your bull and cock parables. By the way I think I am overrunning my time here." He replied and set his trigger.

"First, I need to start with you, Nkem. You could report us to the custody and make us face the law, so you need to join your so-called man Alfonso, a betrayer." He said, My heart started tickling in fear, beating like never before.

"Begin to say your last prayer," he concluded. The sound of a gunshot rattled in the air. The knife I was holding in my hand fell off to the ground as my heart shattered into pieces.

I thought I was dead. I thought he had shot me dead, only to realize that he was the one who got shot by the policeman behind his back. There were three police officers accompanied by Chioma.

Oh my God! I exclaimed, I didn't believe I would still be alive by now. I didn't believe the whole game would be twisted this way.

"Your hands up." The officer commanded as Fire boy and Alfonso surrendered by raising their arms above their heads.

"But how did they manage to get here?" The confused Alfonso asked in crimson.

"I texted her when I was able to take your phone. I told her everything that was happening here," I replied.

"Have you been to this location before? I mean, how did you manage to describe the location to her?" He asked for the last time.

"I googled the location. This is a 21st century, so everything is digitalized." I replied.

"Enough of this! The two of you are under arrest for kidnapping, attempting murder, robbery, and sexual harassment." The officer stated according to the law, then one of the police officers quickly handcuffed the two of them and pushed them to the police van. As for Jack, who was now a dead man, he was going to be taken to the mortuary.

I received my money in full, still intact as my brother counted it and wrapped inside my handbag.Tears of joy trickled down my cheeks as a smile escaped my lips. I embraced Chioma with a warm hug.

I imagined that the one who I helped also happened to be my helper. What a small world. If not for Chioma, I don't know what my fate or what life would've become now. It was a terrible lesson-filled experience as I escaped from the wilderness of my soul that was once tempted. In fact, for this single act, Chioma really deserved to be rewarded.

As we eked out of the uncompleted three-storey building, all I could do was sob tears. Just sob tears and thank God.

TEMPTED SOUL

THE END

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 9 (SEMIFINAL)

Though, I wasn't really surprised when I saw Alfonso stroll into the building with a gun in his hand, smiling mischievously at me. But inside of me, I was enraged, irritated, and desirous of escaping from my body.

"I told you I would come for you. I told you not to play with a lion because they are very dangerous. Today I am here to give you the last tribute. Today, I am here to suck the sweetness out of your body since you claimed to be too holy. Jack, untie her mouth," Alfonso said, and the short, dark-skinned muscular man walked up to me and quickly untied my mouth.

I started breathing heavily like a hungry dog. Immediately, my mouth got loose. I stared blankly into Alfonso's eyes and all I could see was danger darting here and there. In my mind, I knew I had messed up; I'd come to the end of my life, the end of friendship with a city boy in regret.

"Alfonso, tell me why you would do this to me? Did I make a wrong decision knowing you in the first place? Why do you want to endanger my dream? Why do you want to do this to me?" I sobbed tears like a new born baby as Alfonso laughed sarcastically.

"Yes, you made a very great mistake knowing me. All this time I've been watching you with one eye, but you are claiming to be too righteous and holistic. I want to show you that here in the city, there is nothing of such nature. I just laughed at you because only a fool would do what you did to me. You can not step into the lion's den and go back the same way." He muttered

"What do I owe you? What do you really want from me?"

"You owe me a lot; you said you love me; help me with 10 million naira, but you refused. Why are you so heartless? Is that the love you promised to share with me?"

"For God's sake, can you spare me those words? I am not heartless. You are the one who is heartless. How do you expect me to take such an amount of money from my brother's business? How do you expect me to take from what does not belong to me?"

"That is an act of stealing and I was not ready to commit such a crime. I know how my brother struggles to make his wealth, so you don't expect me to cause him a downfall. If you truly love me like the way you claimed to, I am sure you wouldn't asked me to commit such a deadly crime. You just want to" I spat out angrily.

"I told you I was going to refund you the money. Didn't I tell you?"

"Of course you did. To me, that was a risky task. I wasn't ready to take such a risk. If you know my brother, you wouldn't even tempt me to do that because it is like trying to put your finger inside the fire." I was challenging him with every question he came up with.

"Well, I am not here to exchange words with you. All I want from you is to make love with me. The money we took from you is non-refundable. One thing you need to know is that I am not going to kill you because you have a bright future and a lot of dreams to attain. I wanted to tempt you to see if you have a big heart," he paused.

"I don't get you. What do you mean by that?" I probed.

"I wanted to see if you had the big heart to do what I asked you to do, but you couldn't deliver. I had every plan tabled out for us to leave the country. If you had given me the money, I will convince you to come along with me so we can leave the country. There you can continue with your studies. But that is too late for you." He muttered the last words, pulled out a very sharp knife from his waist and cut off the rope in my hand.

Then he ordered the two guys to leave the apartment, and they heeded his order.

"Do you know one thing I like about you? I swear you are too beautiful. No girl has ever entered my eyes like you do. I will only call myself a fool if I did not taste a beauty like you." He whispered into my ears and kissed my lips just the moment he grabbed my hair and turned it towards him.

He moved his hands around my bosom. He grabbed my breast so tight and gave it a squeeze. He started romancing all my body. I started feeling the sensation running all over my body. It was sweet and rough, but I didn't deserve this to happen to me at this point in my age.

I thought of what to do to make him weak and powerless now that his men were far away from us, but nothing came to mind.

"Stop it!" I blurted.

"KEEP QUIET." He thundered and slapped my cheek. He had just aroused my anger, so I quickly locked my fist and gave him a very hot blow on his manhood and stomach. I gave him a second hot blow; he stumbled to the ground and started wincing out in pain. I reached out for the knife he used to cut off the rope. I cut off the rope tied to my legs.

I wanted to take his gun and shoot him, but I said no, I didn't want to involve my hand in a person's blood. I took the gun and pointed it at him so he wouldn't attack me. I rushed out of the apartment, trying every means possible to find a way out, and as I did so, I heard a ringing tone.That was his phone ringing, so I returned back to the apartment and found him still in pain.

He was struggling to take the phone, but I quickly took it from him. Now I could hear the steps of his gang approaching, because he was shouting out loud for help. I already knew his phone code, so I unlocked it and quickly Googled out the location of the place. I didn't have my brother's phone number offhand. I thought of who to call or text, but I never had anybody's phone number offhand.

At that moment, I remembered the number Chioma gave to me. Yes, the number was still inside my pocket and it was the same trouser I wore the previous day that I put on today. I checked my backpack and found the piece of paper with the number written on it. I felt contemporary joy dancing in my heart. I dialed the phone number right away and texted her the location of the place and also the dilemma that I was in.

After I had texted her, I called to inform her so she could act quickly and find a way to help me, but she wasn't picking up at the moment. I was furious. Then I decided I must have to find my way out and escape before his men came back. Unfortunately, I turned my face and saw the two men standing behind me.

My heart leapt out in great terror. I couldn't defend myself with the gun in my hand because they were very close. They held me very tight, took the phone from me, slapped the hell out of me, and pushed me to the ground. At this time, I knew I was finished; I knew I was going to be a dead roasted meat; there was no way to escape again.

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 8

The thought of reporting Alfonso to police custody crept into my mind, but I didn't want to involve police as I thought maybe he was trying to pull my leg, maybe he was trying to make me feel unsafe and worried. I also thought of reporting the case to my elder brother, but I didn't feel right relating it to him.

It's going to sound too pathetic. It could even make my brother grow angry towards me for friending a boy without his consent, even after all he had told me to keep away from city boys.

"When I came to the city newly, I saw a lot of beautiful girls, but I wasn't moved by that. The only motivation I had was to struggle hard for success. My motivation was to make money. Some boys who started with us ended up in regret because they chose to follow the other way round. They squandered their money on girls, and ended up achieving nothing. Even some girls who befriended some boys, after these guys had promised them heaven and the earth, they still failed them. They broke their hearts and ran away with their money," he paused, then continued.

He was distracted by his phone when a text message came in, but he continued while I sat raptly listening.

"Some of them are just there to scam you, take your money and break your heart. Some will even destroy you. The city is dangerous, so be careful and don't mind anyone who comes with his silver tongue. You got to open your eyes. I am a guy who has lived and seen all manner of things happening here in the city. I know what my gender can do to a girl, especially those jobless ones."

"Nobody would tell you this. I am telling you because you are the only sister I have on this earth. You are special to me, and I love you with all my heart, and I am not ready to lose you." He said with seriousness written all over his face. Though I knew my brother couldn't make light of such situations and couldn't tell me lies.

"So, brother, does it mean there are no good guys in the city?" One thing about me is that I love asking questions. Back then in secondary school, my teacher had taught us to always ask questions in the area of things we find difficult to understand for clarity. To me, asking questions has been one of my childish habits, even before I was taught about it in school.

"I didn't say they are no good guys, but in the city here it is very rare to find a good guy. I just want you to be careful," he replied.

"So, how do I know the good ones and the bad ones?" I asked again.

"At this point in your life, I will not advise you to friend any guy. You have a future, a life to live and a dream to accomplish. Wait till your time comes, for now all you need is to focus on your education and self-development because that is what will make you a responsible woman in the future and will determine the kind of men who will walk up to you. At that point, you'll understand the essence of life and be able to dictate the good and bad ones."

He explained, my brother was a guy who doesn't have much time to go deep into details to explain things to you, but if he decide to do it for you. I bet you, my brother would teach you to the fullest and make you understand every point he blew out.

If my parents had had money, my brother would have gone to the university, and by now he was supposed to be working as a professor because of his cleverness and level of intelligence. My brother was my mentor, my professor, and my father.

What came to my mind after recalling what he had told me earlier was how would he feel if I relate the case to him. What will his reaction be? Will he be happy for me or sad?

I feel agitated and frightened at the same time. I know I've messed up. I know I've failed his conduct and promises. Sleep finally came knocking on the door, and I answered the call. In the morning, when I woke up, I had my daily morning prayer.

Because it was a big market day, I did wake up early by 5:30 to start preparing for the day's activities. Hence, I woke up at the usual time and got prepared. My brother had left before me and handed all the money to me to bring it for him later.

I didn't want to waste much of my time in order not to delay my brother and make him feel frustrated in the market, so I hurried through everything I was doing. I put on the same dress I had the previous day and hurried out of the house, biding my mum goodbye for the day.

As I stepped out of the gate standing at the entrance to stop a bus, this particular black van came to a halt. A guy whose face I couldn't identify hopped out of the car's window with a gun pointed directly at my face. He threatened to blow a shot at me as he set the trigger.

"Stop there and don't move. If you move or make a sound, I will blow off this shot on your stomach." His angry voice tensed the atmosphere. His voice was capable of pulling down the roof of a three-story building.

My heart sank into my stomach, cold ran down my spine, my legs started wobbling on the ground. I thought of what to do, but nothing came up. There was no way I could escape from this situation. I was still in the state of my thoughts when another muscular figure hopped out of the back seat and grabbed the bag of money I was holding in my hand, then pushed me into the car.

"I don't want to hear your voice. If you do, you will become a dead person in the next second." The guy warned, and all I did was nod to his instruction.

They drove me a long distance, to a place I didn't recognize, a place I'd never visited before. My heart was beating. I felt like fainting because I knew my life was in danger. There was nobody to come to my rescue.

The clouds were still in dark shape and even though I escaped by the grace of God, I would never know the road to my area. What am I even thinking? With what strength will I confront these enraged men, talkless of escaping? We got out of the car when we got to a particular area where there were no houses, just bushy areas.

But there was a big building on the right hand side, an uncompleted three-story building. They took me into the building and tied my legs together and also tied my mouth with a piece of plastic wrapper while my face was left open. I start wondering who sent these people to me. Did Alfonso actually frame me? Why would he do such a harmful thing to me? Did I even deserve all this from him?

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 6

Just as the woman was about to lash the cane on me. The blood of Jesus escaped from my mouth and I came back to reality. My mother hurried into the sitting room when she heard my scream.

"Nne, what happened? Why were you shouting like that?" My mother asked immediately, as she walked abruptly to me and placed her hand on my shoulder. She looked worried. I looked perplexed. I didn't know what to tell my mother.

"It's a dream, mum. A woman was chasing me in a dream, and she wanted to flog me because I had refused to help her." I tried to explain the dream to my mother as she sat next to me, but my mother didn't believe me.

"I think you have some malaria symptoms and you need to take some medication or go for check-up" She said, and took the remote and switched on the television.

"Mummy, trust me, I am not joking. I really mean what I said. I do dream, but this particular one got me confused." I tried to make her believe me.

"Well, I don't think that has anything to do with you. It's just a dream, okay. I don't see the reason why you would be worrying yourself over a common dream," my mother said. I was scared, and I didn't understand why I had had such a horrible dream in the daytime. Something was wrong somewhere, I thought as my heart kept beating in fear.

In the evening, when it was time for supper, I couldn't eat my dinner because the thought of that dream kept replaying in my memory; it made me lose my appetite. I was just staring blankly at the plate of fried rice and chicken on the dining table.

When my elder brother noticed my change of mood, he decided to ask me what was amiss. So, I explained the situation to him, and I was surprised to see him laughing sarcastically instead of pitying me. What was really funny?

"Why are you bothering yourself over a dream? It's just a dream. People dream and it never comes to pass."

"People also dream and it comes to pass," I threw back at him.

"Yours is different; it'll never come to pass. Cheer up and eat your supper before it gets cold." My brother said, as he continued smiling, to me, I don't know why he thought it was just a dream. This was not just a normal dream or something to joke about.

"That reminds me, Mr. Cletus called me today to inform me that the Jamb results are out. Tomorrow, you can close the shop early and go check your results," my brother said after he had finished eating and left the table, followed by my mother. I was so thrilled to hear that. It's what I've been waiting for.

Then, the thought of that dream vanished from my memory. I was happy now because soon I would be called a university student. But, what was I even happy for? I hadn't even checked my results to know my score and performance. I thought. I managed to eat a few spoons, then cleaned the table and went to bed.

The following day, I didn't bother to call Alfonso, nor did he bother to call me. After the day's activities, I closed shop around 3 o'clock and hurried to check my result at a Jamb center. I got to the area where I went to check my result. It was a busy area with a lot of people from all walks of life. When I got to the center where I enrolled for my exam, at the roadside I saw a dark-skinned woman in her early fifties and a young, beautiful girl, whom I literally assumed to be my age mate.

The two of them sat on the roadside, there were beggars. Although there were still other beggars sitting beside them, my attention was caught only by these two people, who I assumed to be a mother and daughter.

I was startled at the condition they were in. I wondered why mother and daughter would be begging at the roadside at the same time. Why wouldn't the daughter apply for work? Why wouldn't the daughter look for something more enticing to engage herself in. A lot of things ransacked my mind.

Well, in life, we don't really know the stories of other people except when they tell us their stories. I didn't take much money with me, but I had extra cash. So, I walked to the place and dropped the money into their plate.

The girl was staring at me when I put the money into the plate. Even when I went far away from them and was about to walk into the result hall, I noticed that she was still staring at me. I was a little bit scared and confused.

My heart was beating when I stepped into the office. The lady who was in charge asked me to sit on the stool and exercise patience while she checked my result. In my mind, I was wondering what would really be my score, but I was sure I would make it.

Alas! After checking my result, she gave me a smile of hope and congratulated me. Yes, I made it to study my dream course. I was filled with excitement when I walked out of the office with my result slip and file in hand. My heart was dancing to the tune of my music. It has always been my dream to gain admission into the best university in the city and pursuit my dream course.

While I ambled forward looking for a tricycle to board home, the young girl who was sitting with the woman started following me. She was following from the start and to the roadside. I was scared and wondering why she was following me up and down like a dog.

Even when I tried to see if she was heading to somewhere else, trust me, she wasn't going to somewhere else. She was just following me, so I doubled my walk steps to avoid stories that touch heart because I didn't know what she was up to. Did they sent her for me? Did I do bad to sacrifice my little money for them? I thought as I increased my steps.

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 7

"What is the problem? Why are you following me around? I hope I am safe." I asked the young, pretty girl when she approached me face to-face. She was smiling. Her hair looked like something that had not been plaited for ages. I could perceive an unpleasant odour oozing out from the blue gown she was putting on. I felt uncomfortable standing with her, but then I didn't have a choice.

"Yes, you're safe," she whispered.

"So, what is the problem? How may I help you, please?" I inquired. She kept smiling. I didn't know what was really funny though, and the reason she was smiling.

"I just want to... I just wanted to..to.." She stammered and started biting her finger nails like a village champion. One of those village champions who they just brought to the city recently. To me, this wasn't funny at all.

"Please, speak up. I need to go home quickly and I do not have much time to waste," I said with curiosity.

She finally spoke up: "I just want to let you know that you are beautiful, I like you, and I will like to be like you." At that moment, a smile escaped from my lips. I could feel my heart dancing in joy again. "Thank you for your compliment. That means a lot to me." I chuckled. We discussed for a few minutes after she mentioned that her name was Chioma. I was like, ah, we are from the same tribe. I was even shocked to hear her speak my dialect fluently.

"Please, I want you to help me. I really need a job. I am willing to do whatever it takes to put food on the table for me and my mother. We are passing through a lot. We don't even have a roof to stay on." She started begging as tears filled her eyes. I felt really sorry for her and her mother.

"So where do you people stay?" I was shocked to hear that they didn't have a place to stay, "We sleep inside the wood market. Like I said, it hasn't been easy for us. My uncle illegally took away everything that my father ever worked for. He accused my mother of being over the death of my father and kicked us out of the house." Her story was sad to hear.

Besides, wood market was a place the Mallam slaughter their cow before taking it to the main market, the smells that always comes out from the market was not the kind of smell someone can bear. So what came to my mind was how do these people managed to sleep there and feel comfortable, at the same time live a healthy life.

"Chioma, I will see what I can do to save you and your poor mother from this situation. Hi Hannie on+2349015811371 to be added to story headquarters room for more stories. I don't have money because I am still a student, but I will try my best to help you and your mother. First, you need to give me time. Let me discuss with my elder brother, and I believe with a Godly heart he will listen to me," I assured Chioma, who was now my new friend in the city.

Since I landed my feet on the soil of the city of Mba, I haven't made a girl friend. Chioma seemed nice and I pitied their situation. I told her I would come back to her within the week for feedback. The following day was going to be a big market day where all the people in the city would go to the big market and buy things in full stock. It was going to be a busy day for every tom and dick.

Due to the situation I found Chioma, I've already counted the money which I was going to use for the market the following day. I pulled out some money from it and handed it over to her. I knew I was not supposed to touch the money because it doesn't belongs to me, but I did it because of the act of kindness from my heart. I've saved up some money in my account, I was going to withdraw from my account and replace it.

"Use this to get food, plait your hair, get new wears, and keep some." I said, she went on her knees sobbing warm tears and thanking me for what I'd done for her. She was sobbing tears of joy, and I understood her feelings. "Stop crying, if the world seemed to reject you, God will never reject you, and you should be thanking God not me." I held her up.

She left and returned immediately, handing me a white piece of paper containing a phone number. "Please, you can reach out to me through the number. God will bless you and keep you safe from the evil hands." She muttered heartily as I took the piece of paper, put it inside my backpack and left.

When I got home that evening, all I did was think about Chioma and not about my good result or how I was going to buy goods the following day in the market. My mother and elder brother were so glad to hear about my good performance. "I am always proud of you. Believe me, someday you will take over the mantle of power of this great nation," brother Okechi commended. My mother, too, was the most joyous person on earth that evening.

Because I was still thinking about Chioma, her condition bothered me a lot. I wanted to discuss it with my brother so that he could provide an apartment for them and she could manage the shop when I finally got admitted into the university. A lot of things flashed through my mind. Unfortunately, my brother went into his room and slept off due to work stress, so I never bothered him anyway.

When I wanted to sleep, a text message popped out on the screen of my phone, and I checked. It was Alfonso, of all people. I was shocked after reading his text message.

"Hello, Nkem, my own. Remember the love you have for me? Remember you promised to love me? Why did you choose to hurt my heart now? I am deeply disappointed in you, because I asked for common help. Why did you choose to show me the other part of you? You are heartless. I am texting you to let you know that I also have a bad part of me. You've just stepped on the toe of a lion and because you've refused to grant me my heart desire, take note that I am coming for you... Remember the meaning of my name, 'ready' I am always to strike into action and spare no blood."

I tried to call him so that he could explain the meaning of what he just texted me, but he declined my calls and blocked my line. What was really wrong with him? I think Alfonso must be going insane to text me such senseless words. That night left me in awe, and my heart beat like a drum. What will I even do to save myself from this situation? Why would he want to endanger my dream? Was it by force to help someone? Was it by force to love someone? Why all these temptation? What the heck!

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 5

"Why are you finding it difficulty to help me? Remember, it's me, your love. Please do this for me, and I assure you. You will never live to regret this, I swear. If you know you don't love me, why did you accept to be my girlfriend? Why do you want to disappoint me at this time when I need your help most? Why would you allow the devil to steal the love you have for me now? Why would you give the devil a chance? Tell me why?" Alfonso muttered faintly.

I was short of words. I didn't know the right word to say again that would gladden his mind. I was speechless for a while, searching for the right word to say.

"Please stop saying that. Why can't you also understand me? Why are you pressuring me to take what does not belong to me? This is very risky, you know. I am scared because I don't want to have a family issue with my elder brother. He would deny me and kick me out of his house. I am too young to start begging. I am too young to go into the street and live like I don't have a home. Please, try to understand my point here," I said, trying to stand my ground.

"If anything happens to you, you don't have to worry about that when you have someone like me. Consider my home to be your home, and consider me to be your father, brother, and another family at heart. I can't watch you go into the street and suffer. Instead, you will park into my house and stay. I promise you, you will never regret this act of kindness. Just give it a try, please baby." Alfonso replied.

"Please, I am so scared of doing this. Just give me some time to think about it and see what I can do." I assured him.

When we ended the call, I was lost in deep thought concerning what Alfonso told me. I didn't know what else to do because the business didn't belong to me. Besides, Alfonso is the only guy who I have fallen in love with. I love him so much and I didn't want to lose him either. Seeing him in such a critical situation made my heart shatter into tiny pieces. So I thought of a way to help him, but not particularly with the 10 million naira that he requested.

I also thought about what if he doesn't pay back. What if he runs away with the money and changes his line? So many things pondered in my mind that I could not understand. I also thought about what my brother would do to me if he found out about it.

I know my brother to be a hot-tempered person. He may kick me out of his house or may not train me in the university as he has promised to. He was already on the verge of fulfilling that as soon as I gained admission. To me, this was a temptation. My soul was tempted.

A lot of things came to my mind. I was scared and confused at the same time. While I was still thinking, I fell asleep on top of the sofa I was sitting on. I had a horrible and confusing dream.

A woman, a dark-skinned woman, was chasing after me with a long cane. The woman looked so ugly, tattered and helpless. She wanted me to help her with some money. According to her, if I did not help her, She would keep chasing me, and disturbing me till I made up my mind to help her.

"I can't help you. I am still a child. I don't have any money to help you. Please stop chasing after me and leave me alone." I pleaded with her but she was merciless. There was no sign of pity in her dictionary.

'You have so much money, you are rich, but you don't want to help me. I will make sure that you have no peace of mind until you help me. I will keep tormenting your life if you don't help me." She said.

I was scared. I looked at myself and wondered why she said I was rich. What did she really see in me that made her even think so? It was hilarious. Even though I was a rich person, was it by force to help someone? I didn't see the reason why her own case was different. To be frank, I haven't seen this kind of person in my life before.

I started running, but the slippers I was wearing seemed to slow me down; they appeared to be a barrier. So I pulled it off, and held it in my palm. Then, I continue running, while she keeps chasing after me. Twenty minutes later, I was exhausted. My legs were hotting me badly. My throat longed for water, but there was no water available for me to sip.

So I continued running faster, while she kept chasing after me. She didn't relent, and I too didn't relent. I kept running for my dear life. At a point, I fell to my knees and was breathing heavily like a starving dog. As she was approaching me, I stood up and started running again. I was scared of the cane in her hand because I didn't want to be flogged.

What baffled me most was that even though I tried as much to increase my ease, it seemed as though my legs were held captive. I couldn't run faster than my shadow despite all my effort. I found myself tip-toed, hit my toes on a stone and stumbled to my feet.

I was completely laying helplessly on the dusty ground as the woman ambled towards me with rage. I could see her eyes turning to different shapes of colour which I couldn't identify. My heartbeat increased; it was beating hard like a hummingbird.

"Since you want to prove to me that you're stubborn and you don't want to help a poor woman like me, I will show you that a stubborn fly always follows his ancestor to the grave." She said as her eyelashes fluttered.

Then, she raised the cane in her hand above her head to lash it at me. I could not stand up and run. It seemed as though my body was tied to the ground. At that moment, I felt like the ground should just open up and swallow me so that this woman would not lash the cane on my skin.

LIght

I stroll down the street of my neighborhood, arms folded across my chest. It is a cold night. Everyone has hit the haystack. It seems I am the only one outside by now, trudging on this path. And the moon that hung right up in the sky.

I check my wrist watch. 11:45 p.m. quite late to be wandering about. But I cannot sleep. My mind feels unease and heavy.
it calls to me to seek. To seek light. As if the darkness is dominating my being and light is essential.

But where do l find the light?

I take the turn to my left and continue walking.

But what if I never find the light? Will I become something— like an evil or servant of the dark or anything beastly?
Is it even true that darkness is evil or bad as they say? Why do they fail to acknowledge that it is just a colour— Black and nothing more? After all, black things are rather fitting and beautiful.

But I rather follow my heart. Mabye the light has a significant role on my being.

I stumble upon a strong object and fall. An l arrangement of stones it seem. " Fuck! Kids"

Then l see it afar. The light. It draws nearer to me, becoming brighter, and illuminating my environment.

" Eventually, " I said, grinning happily, " We find each other."

A manly voice trails from behind the light: who are you?

"I am 34 years old, I am married with one daughter. I came to Abuja 4 months ago as a result of a transfer from my place of work. I was staying in lagos before now

I came to Abuja with this friend of mine, we were very close in lagos and I have assisted him in so many ways.

I believe Abuja will have better opportunities for him. That was why I convinced him to also come to Abuja

When we got here, both of us squatted with someone I know as we search for accommodation

He was looking for a self-contained while I was looking for a 2 bedroom because of my family. The plan is that my wife will join me in Abuja after I secure an accommodation. Since my rent in lagos hasn't expired, I still have about 3 months

When I got to Abuja, I got an agent to help me search for a house. I didn't know anywhere.

How I saw that agent was the day I was moving around on my own looking for Accommodation, he saw me around the estate in sauka lugbe and told me he was an agent

That was how he carried me around, showing me houses till I saw the one I liked. He contacted someone who he said was the landlord, and they said the house was 1.2M, and he said agency and legal fee was 200k

Everything I paid for that house was 1.4m

I packed into the house, and when I settled a little, I brought my wife daughter over. Just two months of saying in that house, someone appeared one day asking how I got access to the house. He said he is the landlord

I said I made payment to the landlord and that I have my receipt. When I brought out my receipt, that was when I saw that it was a fake receipt

The real house owner showed me his receipt, and he asked other tenants to bring out their receipt. They were totally different from mine.

It was at this point that I started adding one and two together. That house agent was always taking me around in the afternoon, and the day I got to this particular house, I didn't meet other tenants.

The moment I told him that I liked the house, he convinced me to pay immediately to secure it and that about 3 people were coming for the house.

Because I have been walking around and was tired, I quickly made payment.

It was at this point that I knew I had been scammed. I called his phone number, and it wasn't going through

The real landlord gave me one week to pack out that someone had paid for the house, and I didn't have another money to secure another accommodation immediately.

If it were to be just me, it would have been easier, but my wife and daughter are already in Abuja.

I had to share my properties with different people, and then I begged my friend to accommodate I and my family while I rally round to raise money for even if it's self-contained

We have been in his house for about 3 weeks, and I am yet to get another accommodation with the little money I have

I couldn't enrol my daughter into school this September because of everything that happened

Now my friend is always complaining that we are inconveniencing him. He even said we should move out of his house

I am begging him to give me more time so I can gather more funds and add to what I have. I am even ashamed of myself

This is someone who has so much respect for me, now he talks to me anyhow he likes. He asked us to move out of his house and I am tired of begging him.

I had to go and look for a small hotel to stay with my wife and child while I sort things out

I am just tired, I hope this is sorted soon.

As for the acclaimed agent who scammed me, I wonder how people have such a heart for such an act without looking back."

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 4

As he moved his hand slowly and reached out to my breast, he grabbed it and gave it a very soft, romantic squeeze. At first, I started feeling the emotion and sensation running down to my thinking faculties and I let out a very sweet melodious tune, moaning out in pleasure,

"Ahhh! Ohh!" The feeling was absolutely out of this world. He continued with his gut. By this time, I'd come back to my senses and realized that Alfonso was trying to have his way on me.

"Stop it! Stop it! I said, stop it!!! What are you doing to me?" I blurted out in rage. Then, I gave him a bianca slap on his cheeks and pushed him away. He fell off from my body and lay on the bed without uttering a word. He was just staring at me like a deaf and dumb. I was mad at him for attempting that.

"Because I followed you to your house, does that give you the audacity, temerity, or effrontery to attempt to take advantage of me? Are you out of your mind? All of you men are just the same, wanting sex and nothing more." I fired as I stood up from the bed, reached out for my bag and headed to the door.

Alfonso quickly stood up from the bed and followed me. "Please, don't leave me. I am so sorry for trying to do that. I promise I will never try that in my lifetime again with you. Please," he pleaded as he grabbed my hand, knee down.

I returned my gaze and stared into his cold eyes and innocent face. I could see tears trying to build up while begging. I gently held him up, and though I didn't know what came over me, I started smiling as though he hadn't done anything to me,

"promise me you'll never do it again?" I asked, "I promised you. Trust me, I will not try it again. If I try it, cut off my manhood." he whispered in an affirmative tone. From his look, I could read from his mind that he meant what he said.

"I don't like to be touched by a man who is not my husband. I am still a virgin and I am not ready to defile my body. I will only submit my body to the man who will get married to me, my future husband, and not to anyone else." I said in retaliation.

I could remember my mother lecturing me about sex education, the sweetness and the bad outcome of it. My mother was a victim of sex, and that was the reason she got married to a poor man who was unable to take proper care of her. She got pregnant for my father and that was the end of her dream. She ended up being a nursing mother in a poor home.

According to my mother, she was enjoying the regular sex and never took time to think about the future. "These men would come; they would always appear good, nice, and sweet. They will promise you heaven and the earth just to have their way with you. Once they get you pregnant, you become a dirty plate that has been used, a dirty piece of cloth that is not worth wearing. So, my daughter, shine your eyes and don't let anything pleasure you into having sex when you are not yet married." My mother's advice came to my mind.

When it comes to sex education, my mother was a good educator in that aspect. She will teach you without shame. She will mention the word "sex" very loudly. I could remember a day my mother spanked my ass and said, "This thing, don't let any man touch it. I and your future husband are the only ones who have the right to touch it. Though, I was shy and blushing.

Just then, my phone started ringing out loud. I reached out for it and glanced at the screen. It was my elder brother calling, "Hello, Nkem, where are you? I am here to pick you up." My brother said, almost at a time.

So, I told him I was coming in a jiffy and hastened to meet up with him. As I was about to go out, Alfonso handed a piece of paper that contained his phone number over to me. "Please call me when you get home," he said, and I agreed as I hurried out of the house to the main road.

After that night, I didn't tell my brother anything pertaining Alfonso, nor did I relate it to my mother. I decided to swallow it into my stomach. I forgot to call him as I promised to. And since that very day, I've never seen him come around and he was no longer reflecting in my memory that I had meant a guy named Alfonso before.

One Saturday morning, I was packing my dirty clothes outside to wash, including the ones of my brother and mother. Then, I saw a piece of white paper fall off among the heaps of clothes. When I bent down and picked it up, I realized it was Alfonso's phone number. Ah, I was surprised to see it.

Later in the day, I called him and he was surprised I called. He thought I'd forgotten him. He thought that I was no longer going to talk to him again, but I told him I forgot to call him and apologized.

We discussed a lot of things, and we got to know more about each other. According to him, he said he was a graduate of Business Management. He told me he had lost his rich parents in a ghostly air crash while on their way to the land of South Africa. It was a sad tale to tell.

He told me about his ruthless uncle, who had illegally taken away everything that his late parents had ever worked for. However, I felt pity for him and sympathized with him as a close friend. Gradually, Alfonso and I became good friends. In fact, I fell in love with him because he seemed to be very nice and someone who had a great sense of humour. At a certain time, Alfonso called me on the phone and told me he needed some money to venture into business.

"Nkem, if you can help me with 10 million naira from your business, I promise I will pay you back in interest." He cried on the phone,

"I am managing this business for my brother. Forget the fact that I told you I own the business. This is not my business, sorry, I can't take such an amount of money from the business please." I declined his request, but he kept on pleading for it.

"Please do it for me, for the love that you have for me. Do it for our love. I promise you I will never disappoint you on this. You'll surely get a reward from this when the time comes. Besides, you won't let your brother know about it," he pleaded one more time. I told him I needed to think about it and decide what to do next.

"There is nothing to think about. You said you love me. Why can't you prove the love you have for me now?" To me, this was a very difficult and risky decision to make and not just all about proving my love for him.

TEMPTED SOUL

EPISODE 3

As I stood on the roadside looking at the guy who was coming towards me, fear flooded inside my heart like a thousand demons. Hence, the rain kept dripping on my body. I was shivering immediately he approached me. He was wearing a black jacket, the ones meant for cold weather. However, he was about to walk past me when he stopped a half foot and turned to look at my face.

I was sure he wasn't here for me. He was probably heading somewhere. "Hey, beautiful angel, why are you standing inside the rain? Are you not feeling the cold?" He cooed. From the way he spoke, he seemed to be a nice guy and not the bad guy I thought he was. Though he didn't notice I was the one standing there.

So I purposely ignored his question and looked away, holding my bag tight to my chest, and he walked close to me and looked at my face.

"Oh! You again?" he sniggered.

"Yes, it's me again. What did I do to you? Why are you just following me around like a devil? Why can't you just let me be?" I implored. Then, he started smiling and leaned close to me, placing his right arm on my shoulder.

"Please, don't say that. You were the one that made me look like a devil. I am a nice dude. I can't hurt you. Trust me. he said. I looked at his face and waved his arm off of my shoulder.

"I don't trust you. Please leave me alone and let me be. I don't want trouble." I fired, yet he kept smiling. Seeing him smile made my anger grow more ferocious, and I felt like slapping him. Because I didn't know why he was smiling, I noticed his dimples on his cheeks and thought he looked very handsome with his gap-teeth.

"I'm sure you're feeling cold inside," he said as he gently removed his jacket and stretched it towards my face. "Please, use this to cover up your body in order to prevent the cold from affecting your health. Your health is important to me." he said.

In fact, at this moment I feel loved. I feel so special because the guy seemed to be nicer and fun to be with. But, I didn't know the reason why he would be nice and kind to me just like that.

"I did not complain to you that I was feeling cold. I don't need your jacket either. I am okay!" I muttered and walked away from the spot while he followed me like a puppy dog.

"Please, don't walk away from me. This is not who you think I am. I am a very different guy. Okay, I know I offended you earlier in the day. Forgive me, I am begging." I was surprised when he went on his knees begging for forgiveness.

One thing about me is that I don't like seeing people kneeling or bowing down for me. I am not that hard of a person. I forgive easily, so seeing him on his knees pissed me off. It pulled off my legs and weakened my bones.

"Please, stand up. I've forgiven you, and promise me that you've also forgiven me," I said, while I helped him to stand on his feet. "Of course, I've forgiven you too. Thank you for finding a place in your heart to forgive me. I am now a happy person," he whispered.

"My name is Alfonso," he said in an attempt to start a conversation. "It means noble and ready. What’s yours?

"Nkem," I replied, a faint smile etched on my lips. "It means my own."

"That’s a lovely name, Nkem. I trust you're now my own from today henceforth." Alfonso grinned, trying to make a joke. I chuckled.

"That’s not funny. Why would I become yours?" I asked.

"No, no, I’m not. You're my own. You belong to me and I like you already." A broad smile spread on his lips as he said that, making me blush. Then, he handed me the jacket. I took it and wore it on top of my red polo. I was feeling the cold deeply inside of me. The roadside was empty; only a few people were walking on the road. There was no sign of a motor cycle.

Then, Alfonso took me to his one-bedroom apartment. It was a nice room, painted in a nice colour. Inside the room, there was a blue carpet spread on the tiled floor, but no chair to sit on. Only the bed was inside the room and other house properties, though the room was lit and scented nicely as I sat on the bed.

Since the rain had stopped and began again, this time around it was very serious and I doubt I wouldn't see any vehicle on the road. Even when I tried to reach out to my elder brother, I was unable to because the network seemed too poor. "Do you mind if I do anything, like can I get a drink for you or prepare a supper for you?" Alfonso inquired while I nodded my head and indicated no.

Then, he came and sat close to me, holding me tight to himself. I was wondering how I've literally given myself to him. In fact, it looks as if the both of us have known each other for ages. I was okay being with him, and I felt safe in his arm when he wrapped me into his large chest.

"Are you feeling cold?" he asked, and I told him yes. I wasn't thinking anything negative. I don't know if he has something else ticking inside his mind. Alfonso held me very softly. I could feel his warm hand messaged and romanced my shoulder and neck roughly. I was feeling the sensation down my spine. He was about to move his hand gently to my orange breast.

*TEMPTED SOUL*

EPISODE 2

I was furious. I could feel my heart beating like a drum. It was like a volcano that wanted to explode. The guy started smiling at me like the being on the pack of a cabin biscuits. I didn't smile back at him. I know of a lot of things happening here in the city. The rumors were obvious.

My brother had warned me to always stay alert due to scammers. What usually scared me more is that most of these people used black magic (juju) to outsmart people in their workplace. When they use juju, their tongue becomes a silver tongue, and whatever they tell you to do is exactly what you will do.

"What do you want to buy, sir?" I asked, as I pushed the money back into my sales bag. This time around, I kept my eyes on him as he walked around the shop, looking up at the goods on the counter one after the other. He didn't talk to me; he just kept walking around the shop like he was looking for something.

"What do you need so I can help you find it?" I asked again, and he ignored my question. He hissed, and looked at me from head to toe.

"Where is the owner of this shop?" In my mind, I was like, why would he be asking after the owner of the shop? Did he come to look for the owner of the shop or did he come to buy something? This guy must have something at the back of his mind.

"I own the store, so what do you want?" I replied, still looking at him carefully.

"Well, I can't seem to find exactly what I am looking for. I think you don't have it and I need to move to the next shop." He said, and was about to head out of the shop.

"What do you mean? Did you mention the name of what you want?" I blurted. And he turned his face towards me and smiled. To me, that was a fake smile.

"I don't really know the name of the product, but I can identify it if I see it with my eyes," he said, trying to play smart on me. To me, I knew this guy was a thief and wanted to test me. But seeing that I was smart made him change his pervaded mind.

"That is not how to do things, sir. When you go to the market, you should know what you're looking for.You should write down the name of the item. What if you go around the market and you don't see it, so you turn around and go home?" I said, trying to engage him in a conversation.

"You must be a stubborn girl to ask me that litany question. I hate it when people talk at me anyhow." He was angry at me and started ringing out his boisterous voice.

"I didn't mean to hurt you with my words. I was just trying to let you know in case of next time." I whispered audibly.

"Keep shut, are you okay?" He fired at me. "See, if you don't know the way to talk to your elders, better keep your dirty mouth closed." I was confused because I didn't see where I went wrong in my statement. The way he was shouting at me made my heart beat in fear. But, I didn't keep my cool. I let my anger get loose while I rained words on him.

"You must be the one with a dirty mouth." I fired back at him. He raised his right hand to give me a resounding slap, quickly, I moved backward while he followed me. I was scared of him because he seemed like a lion about to eat me raw.

Just then, Bro Emma walked into the shop to see what was going on. I was sure he had heard our rants and decided to come. Emma was a good neighbour in the market who didn't take me for granted. Join and read more intriguing stories from headquarters page through Hannie on+2349015811371.
He said I was the most beautiful girl on earth. He was a married man and always said he would marry me for his eight-year-old son. Well, that was fun.

"Nkem, what is the problem?" He asked in his usual gentle voice. I explained everything to him, though according to him, he said he didn't find any fault with any of us. I knew he was lying to me. He just wanted to dismiss the case so that everyone could go back to their normal business.

"Young man, please don't be angry at her. She is your younger sister," he pleaded with the guy.

"Nkem, don't feel bad about what just happened. That is the way these guys move about in the market looking for whom to attack. If you are not careful, they may make away with your hard-earned money. Next time if you see these kinds of people, just let them go with their problem before they impose it on you." Bro Emma advised just the moment the guy left the shop.

I totally agreed with him and promised him I'd be watchful and careful about these kinds of people.

"That's why I love you; always be a good girl for me and my son." He thanked me and left when he noticed that there was a customer standing at the front of his shop.

In the evening, the weather had changed. There is no doubt, looking at the cloud, I knew it was going to fall. So, I quickly arranged my things in the shop and closed for the day. But just the moment I was about to leave, the rain started falling cat and dog.

I stayed in my shop till it was getting dark, since the majority of people had started going out of the market with an umbrella, and some of them used black nylon to cover their hair, while some just swam into the rain, and they didn't care at all. In order not to stay here too long. I tried reaching out to my elder brother on the phone, but the network seemed too poor due to the weather.

I carried my bag that contained all my sales and went to stand at the roadside to look for a tricycle that would take me home. Everywhere was getting dark. While I was standing alone at the roadside, I turned my face to my right-hand side and noticed a fair guy walking towards me. When I looked very closely, it was the same guy that came to my shop that afternoon. I was scared and started to panic.

My heart started pumping out in fear. So I started thinking, "Why is he walking towards me? Did he want to rob me? Oh, I am finished escaped from my mind because there was no one close to the place.

*TEMPTED SOUL*

EPISODE 1

That morning, I was sweeping the frontage of our corridor when a red Luxury 350 drove into the compound. The car drove very close to me, almost wanted to knock me down.

I was scared and angry at the same time. I just flung the broom I was holding to the other side.

"Who are you, can't you see me? Do you want to jam me with your car?" I fired. When my mother heard my angry voice from inside, she came out of the house to see what was happening.

"Nne, what happened? I heard you shouting. Who are you shouting at?" My mother asked in a low tone. I pointed my finger at the car.

"It's that car that wanted to ram over me while I was sweeping." I said with a teary voice.

My mother didn't know what to say, so she came close to me and held me tight in her arms. However, we didn't know the person that was inside the car. We stood in one spot looking at the car.

Then, a young fair-skinned guy stepped out of the car with a smile spread all over his face. "Is that not your brother Okechi?" Because of the anger in my stomach, I didn't even care to look at the person's face in the first place. I was only staring at the body of the car because it looked very new, beautiful, and alluring.

The tyres of the car were still giants on the ground. I was interrupted the moment my mother said that. I returned my gaze to the face of the young guy. Truly, it was Okechi, my elder brother. He was wearing white native attire up and down, and black polished shoes to match.

I was filled with excitement when I saw him. "Brother Okechi, is this your eye?" I ran and hugged him very tightly. I haven't seen my brother for many years now. It has been a long time since my brother left the village for the city. The condition in my family wasn't helping at all.

Life has chosen to show us a new path of treatment since we lost our father, though we still survive the hardship. I and my mother were working hard while Okechi left for the city, when a man named Ibekwe came to pick him up. My father's best friend back then was Uncle Ibekwe. According to him, my brother was going to serve him for some years and he would settle him off. Then, he can start his own life and become the boss of himself.

My mother danced to the music when my brother agreed to follow him to the city to look for a greener pasture. Since then, we have not set eyes on him. We usually hear from him through phone calls, but not all the time.

The last time we heard from him was when he told us that his boss had settled him. Since then, he changed a line and never bothered to call us again. We too forgot about him, though we kept praying for God to bring him back safely.

"Brother welcome." I was smiling and feeling very excited. I collected the handbag he was holding as he went to give mum a hug.

"Mum, I've missed you dearly. I've always been thinking of you day and night. My prayer is that God should keep you alive for me so that I can come back and spread money on you." Okechi stated proudly, proudly holding mom very tightly.

"My son, we are happy to see you. We've also been praying to God to keep you safe." Mum replied, and we both walked into the house.

Later in the day, we offloaded all the food items he brought from the city, and settled down to have a family discussion.

"Mum, it has not been easy for me since I left for the city. I am happy because God has favoured me. We are now rich moms." Okechi said. We didn't need anybody to tell us that he had made so much money; from his dress, we already knew he had made it.

That night, I was filled with endless joy when he said he would take us to the city, and there I would continue my university education. It has always been my passion to go back to school and study my dream course, Medical Science. This was truly an opportunity for me. My mother was happy about the idea. Soon we would no longer stay in the village, going to the farm every day.

Though, in my mind, I was wondering what city life would look like. I've never been to the city before either. But I knew it must be better than life in the village. So, we spent one month in the village, making arrangements. I informed all my classmates that I was going to travel to the city soon, and they were both happy for me.

"Please, when you go, don't forget me." Oluchi said, She was sad because I was going to leave her. She was my best friend.

"I will not forget you, Oluchi. We will come back during Christmas time, and I promise to buy many things for you." I said.

Then, the following day, we left the village. Getting to the city, I saw beautiful houses, mansions, and long buildings with constant power supply. I was thrilled at the sight of what I saw. The people in the city dress more responsibly than the people in the village. Life was very simple and sweet.

My first week in the city, I spent the days sitting at home, watching movies, playing games, eating, and sleeping since I was lonely. My mother did the same thing. I was new in the city, and I didn't have a friend yet. The following week, my brother said I would be assisting him in his supermarket because he had got a new, larger office somewhere in the heart of the city.

He told me that I should run the mini-market until I was admitted into the university, and then he would hire a salesman; in fact, he told me that the shop would be mine from then on.To make me understand the price of the things, he wrote them out on the body of each item.

As time went on, I got used to the price of the items. I was a fast learner. I could remember back then in the secondary school I used to come first and second position in my class.

So, one sunny afternoon, I was inside the shop counting my sales when a tall, built, handsome guy walked into the store. He was staring at the money in my hand. and greeted me.

"Good day, beautiful lady." Though I wasn't scared because of the way he addressed me, I was scared because of the way he was staring at the money in my hand. I was scared, because his eyes looks like the eyes of an armed robber.

Part 2(FINAL PART)

" My eldest daughter has this friend she is so close to. I don't know if it's my mindset or what, but I don't like close friends

I warned her about that girl, but she didn't listen she was so loyal to their friendship. But in the end her friend betrayed her.

She went behind my daughters back and said so many ill things about her to her husband. They just got married, barely 6months of marriage

She said my daughter was using charm for him and that she knew where it was. Not knowing she has planted it in her box. She had access to their home out of trust my daughter has for her

That was how the man searched and found what she said was in her bag. My daughter cried that she knew nothing about it, but nobody believed her.

She knew her friend had set her up because of her weird behaviour that very day this incident happened, but no evidence to back her up.

She was sent out of her home with pregnancy

The man later married that my daughters friend who accused my daughter.

My daughter is doing well for herself, but she is not yet married

Recently, my son's wife left her matrimonial home and followed another man, leaving him to take care of their baby all by himself.

My son is doing well, he takes care of her but they just can't leave together. We have tried to settle them, but she refused.

I am scared for my daughter, who is planning to get married. There are so many questions on my mind.

I would have gone back to my friend that I had wronged so she could speak good to my children, but unfortunately, she is late

I don't know the next step to take rather than to keep praying for my children."

WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST SHE DOES IN THIS CASE.

No bad situation last forever, prayer is the key, and believing in ones mind that one is forgiven through Christ's sacrifice and rebuking bad thoughts cause it's powerful.

Part 1

" The story I am about to tell you happened about 40 years ago. At a point in my life, I forget about everything as things were going so well with me, not until recently when the repercussions started playing out.

When I was in my final year in 1984, I had this very good friend of mine who shared everything with me.

When I gained admission into the school, I didn't have much as my family was struggling at that time, but I was determined to go to school. This young lady was so beautiful and talented. She offered to accommodate me without asking me to pay anything.

At that time, I didn't have money to even pay anything, so it was a great opportunity for me.

I moved to her house, she was doing so well for herself and she is loved by people.

You see those people who get things to work for them so easily. She is one of such people. I can tell you she doesn't struggle for anything.

At a point, I got jealous of her and often wish I was her

1985, when we were about to graduate, there was this young, handsome, and rich guy coming for her hand in marriage. The guy is based in the USA, and he declares his intentions. All he wanted was to marry her and take her to the USA

She was so happy, and she shared her joy with me, but this made me more jealous. Why couldn't it be me? I asked my, I didn't even have any rich guy coming for me at that time.

She also confided in me about her school, sweetheart I am aware of their relationship

This guy loves her in school then, but there were no prospects between both of them, so she mentioned to me that she was going to gradually break things up with him so she can focus on her new found love

She told her school sweetheart about her newfound love and how she is planning to get married to him as he has a long way to go and she wouldn't want to tie herself down waiting when she knows that anything can happen

They both decided to part ways, but it was difficult as they were already so used to each other.

Because I was jealous of her, I started looking for ways to make her Abroad lover see this awful side of her as she is still sticking around her school sweetheart

Because I was jealous of her, I was advising her to still enjoy herself for a while since she is not yet married, and on the other hand, I am looking for ways for her to be caught so I will step in

Two weeks to her wedding, her school sweetheart called her to tell her that he was travelling and I encouraged her to go see him once more since she is not yet married. She trusted me to shield her and went for that visit.

Her husband to be was already in Nigeria in preparation for the wedding. I gave him an update on her location and who she went to see as I have been giving him information all these while, but he didn't believe me. Now, I am about to get evidence.

He went to the location I gave and saw them. I even went with him.

They were not in a bad situation as they were just talking, but seeing her there made the Abroad guy believe all the lies I have been telling him about her

He called off the wedding that day. My friend cried and cried, but no one believed her.

It was so obvious that I betrayed her, all with the intention that this rich guy would turn around to marry me, but it never happened

My friend, while she was crying that day, mentioned that people will betral and collect husband from my children. She was so disappointed in me

The USA guy moved on and married someone else, My friend also got married the following year to another wealthy person. She is such a lucky girl.

I also go married, and my husband is comfortable as well.

Years later, I apologised to my friend. She forgave me, but the friendship was never there again. I lost the friendship.

I have 3 children, and I am watching them face betrayals from their so-called friends. I will tell you about it."

PART 2

"....In my presence, they cut off the woman's head. Then they took me to a different building and asked me which of my family members could provide 10 million Naira, and I said I don't know.

They asked whom I'll like to call, and I said my Dad and they called him. He asked where I was and I told him I didn't know.

He asked if I knew those people with me and I replied no. My Dad told them over the phone that the same way they took me is the same way they'll return me.

They told my Dad that if he didn't bring the money before Sunday they would k.i.ll me, and they meant every word of it.

Next, they took me inside and was slapping and shouting at me, asking me why my father would be challenging them.

They left the room, and I saw a young pregnant lady in the room who said she has been there for three (3) years. They impregnate her, take away the child after delivery, and a man sucks her breast milk.

I asked her how they brought her there and she said she works with a radio station and was going to work one morning around 5am to give 6am news.

She ordered a Bolt and found herself there. I asked if anyone had tried reaching her and she said 'none'.

She said they tried to collect ransom, but they collected the money and still held her; and that there is a building there but it cannot be seen.

Later, they returned my belongings intact except my clothes which they couldn't find and had to give me another person's own.

They asked if I'd know my way back when they drop me, I said 'yes'. Then they blindfolded me and dropped me at a roadside and told me not to remove the blindfold until I cease to hear the sound of their car.

After they left, I laid in the bush because I was scared, didn't know anywhere or what to expect next. Meanwhile, while they were taking me out of the building before blindfolding me, I saw another room filled with little children both babies, toddlers and even old women.

While I was hiding, I saw a cyclist carrying a passenger and on his return I stopped him and asked him to help me.

He asked what I was doing there and I told him my ordeal. He asked of my destination and I told him Port harcourt.

I begged him to help me get to the park and he used his phone to contact my dad who sent me money to pay him through the cyclist's account.

Meanwhile, when I asked the cyclist of the location where the kidnappers dropped me, he said it was a village in Anambra State.

The cyclist helped me board a bus to portharcourt and my dad was already waiting for me at waterline.

According to my dad, when he got the information of my kidnap, he took permission from work to the police station to make a report and solicit for their intervention.

The police told him they can't intervene till after 24 hours. My Dad travelled to the village and met a native doctor who told him I was still alive but would be killed if nothing was done.

So, while I was making the call with my Dad, it was the native doctor who told him to respond to them as he did, and that was the day I returned home.

I don't know if it was my period that saved me or if it's the place my Dad went to, but I know I'm alive.
Since I returned, I haven't been able to sleep"

PART 1

"On Thursday I was going to see my mum, I was making a call and was almost close to the roundabout leading to my mum's house.

Two women were seated in the front seat of the taxi I entered and another lady was sitting close to me.

The driver diverted to another road and I asked the him why since i was almost at the place I was supposed to alight.

He said he was looking for more passengers and I told him he'll still get passengers in front, yet he continued moving.

Next, a man entered the taxi and told me to drop the call. I dropped the called and asked him why he should order me to do so.

He didn't say anything, I hissed and dialed my friend's number to continue our conversation.

As I was talking on phone the man slapped me and said that he told me to drop the call and I was querying him.

He showed me a gun, covered my nose with a cloth and I became unconscious for as long as I couldn't tell.

When I woke up, I saw myself in a container with other girls and one of the female passengers with me on that taxi.

I asked the girls what happened and why we were there, they said they didn't know and they've been there for long. One of them said she has been there since Monday.

The container was on a truck in motion to an unknown destination. We got somewhere and they told us to come down.

They wore masks and blindfolded us, told us to hold our hands and enter a building. We entered the building and they removed the blindfolds.

We were 10 girls, the he house had no windows. they ordered us to undress ourselves, but I didn't remove my pant as I was on my period.

A woman whom I didn't know if she was a nurse or doctor came in with a marker and a man, both on masks.

She bisected us and drew two lines on our backs and crossed them, then circled my br.ea.sts, abdomen and pubic area; afterwards she gave us an injection which made our skin darker and dry, she gave us water which made us weak and drowsy.

We were left in the room and couldn't tell if it was day or night as it was very dark in there. The next day when we were told to come outside, we came out and I heard children's voices in the next room.

We were taken to a bush where I saw four big pots (like the ones used for cooking banga stew).

A man came and asked which of us was with a phone, but no one responded, so they gave us a human skull with cowries in the orbital cavities and we passed the skull to each of us.

Upon getting to one of us, the skull refused to leave her hands, indicating that she had a phone with her. They asked the lady whom she called and she said no one.

They asked her why she was with a phone and she said she didn't know she was still with her phone, and instantly they cut off her head.

It appeared that they had to r.a.p.e us before ki.ll.in.g us, so when they got to me and asked why I was wearing pants and I said I was on my period.

Since the day they carried me I hadn't changed my pad, my pant was soaked and I was smelling badly.

They asked the woman who brought me why she didn't notice I was on my period, she said she thought there was no need since they wanted to use us for ri.tu.al..."

A butcher and a painter lived next door to each other. They had lived in peace for many years, but at some point, they started having problems with each other. It started when the butcher made a complaint to the painter about his noisy dog that wouldn't stop barking.

However, when the complaint became constant, the painter made it known to the pork butcher that he also had been enduring nuisance from him but never complained. Branches from his trees were growing over to his own territory, attracting unwanted insects and shedding their leaves all over his garden.
"You don't expect me to cut down my tree, do you? Just do away with your dog and stop being unreasonable!". the pork butcher brawled.

One day, the butcher marched into the painter's compound and started throwing insults and raining abuses on the him. He said a lot of hurtful things, called him a coward and blamed him for the death of his wife. He wouldn't stop cussing him.

However, the painter remained totally calm and undisturbed, no matter what the butcher said to him. He couldn't bring himself to do anything other than ignore him. The pork butcher kept on insulting him and his family.

Shortly after the butcher had left, another neighbour who had witnessed the whole thing, approached the painter and asked him.
"Why didn't you return the insults? Come on, there are things you could have used on him to shut him down. We all know he once beat his pregnant wife until she had a miscarriage. Also, he spent many years studying law in Japan, but ended up becoming a local butcher. You could have insulted him with these things and more".

The painter asked him.
"When you wrestle with a pig in the mud, what happens?".

The neighbour replied.
"Of course, you both get dirty".

Then the painter smiled and said.
"Good. And when you both get dirty, the pig likes it, doesn't it? Listen, if someone insults you, and you insult him back, then you also fall into his category as both of you are exactly the same. If someone goes around throwing garbage all over the place, and you join him in throwing garbage, it means there are two mad people. We should never give people the chance to bring us down to their level? We should never play and wrestle in the mud with people who really like the mud? When someone insults you, you should understand that they do so because of their own insecurities and inadequacies in life. We should silently distance ourselves from such people and understand that it doesn't worth our time and energy. Acknowledgement of a bully only gives them power, and you don't want to give them that power.

PART 3(FINAL PART)

...."By late January 2020, I came back to my landlady's place and she gave me one empty room to stay.

She gave me a mat, wrapper and asked me to stay there pending when she'll rent out the room.

She took me like her son, her children loved me especially her last daughter. I helped them with some chores like fetching water, errands etc.

When they cook, they'll first call me to come and take mine before they eat, they showed me love my brother didn't show me.

To my surprise, one day my landlady's son accused me of sleeping with his sister because of our closeness which God in heaven knows I never did, I never for one day had the thought in me.

This caused serious issue in their family, he asked me to pack out of their house.
I had to leave and went to stay with my immediate elder Sister who just rented her own apartment.

This was how I kept packing and leaving from one place to another.

Things were moving well for some months before my Sister decided to change to something I don't know.. Whenever we have little misunderstanding as siblings, she will take it extremely, say really hurtful words to me, remind me that my mates are living alone while I'm still squatting, she will tell me I irritate her, I have body odour etc

One night we had little issue and she started abusing me with her words again and out of anger I slapped her, I even threatened to stab her if she ever talk to me in that manner again. I meant every word I said cos she went too far.

It was when I calmed down that I realized I took a very wrong action. I went to her the next morning, Knelt down and asked her for forgiveness, i really such action till today.

I was still working at the fuel station, that woman that was my surety was still very nice to me. I was saving the money she gives me at intervals plus my salary until I saved up to 90k and started looking for an apartment to rent.

While looking for an apartment, my cousin bro came from Owerri to Abia state and was also was in need of an apartment.

I already decided that I wanted to stay alone and focus but because it was my brother involved, I accepted for us to merge our money and we got an apartment

We had nothing in our apartment. No curtain, tiles, rug or carpet, hanger, chair, or even home appliances.

It was just a Small student bed belonging to my cousin brother, my school bag where i pack my clothes and his own bag.

We will always shut our door to avoid anyone looking inside our empty room.

We don't dare invite anyone to our house so they won't see what our room looked like.

I thought of a business to do and decided on roasting pork meat. I bought all the materials I needed.

Getting a spot for my business wasn't easy at all but I eventually got and I started roasting pork meat by the roadside.

The business is paying off more than I expected even though it is something so stressful.

Today to the glory of God, I single-handedly rented a new apartment just few weeks ago and I'm living comfortably.

I have all the home properties a bachelor should have and I'm still doing my business. I can now invite my younger ones to stay with me.

Now people tell me they wish to be like me or have the things I have but they do not know my story nor see my scars.

They're just seeing the Glory of God.. My cousin bro is also doing well for himself.

PART 2

"...I went to my brother and begged him to surety me and he refused, I went to one woman that has been nice to me and begged her, she accepted and came to work the next day with me.

I began learning tailoring and one morning my brother asked me to leave. My landlady and her daughter pleaded with him as usual but he refused saying I was man enough and should go and hustle.

I had no place to go, didn't know anyone except my aunt that I lived with. I had no friend, nobody!

I moved out with tears, and begged my landlady to keep some of my things at her place till I return from work that day.

I got to work very late and my boss asked me why, I narrated all that happened and he had pity on me.

I pleaded with my boss to allow me sleep in the shop after work, it was a hard decision for him but he granted it.

I got home that day and told my landlady everything that happened at work, I also informed her that I'll pack my things to live in our shop for the moment.

She was so sobber, gave me words of motivation and adviced me never to give up. I packed my things, thanked her and left.

I got to the shop so broken and in tears asking myself what I ever did to deserve this kind of condition.

After work each day, I'll iron all the clothes my boss has sewed during the day. Then at night when I'll want to sleep, I'll join two tables and lay on it and as usual mosquitoes will feast on me.

I helped my boss in all his chores including washing and ironing his clothes every Saturday every Saturday. That was my way of showing appreciation to him.

After 2 months, the mosquito bites became so unbearable for me that i had to meet our next neighbor in my brother's apartment to please squat me till Christmas period when I'll travel to the village.

Christmas was just around the corner so he agreed. We lived in Peace, I made sure i did everything needed for me to do before going to work.

Sometimes on my way back from work, if I have money with me I'll buy enough Garri and Sugar and keep in the house so we can at least be drinking it.

It was so hard for me to feed so I had to quit the tailoring work and started looking for a job that can earn me money.

I got a job as a pump attendant in a fuel station and barely a month I started the work we were robbed by armed robbers.

They pointed guns to our head and demanded for all the money we had and we gave them.

After everything, the manager of the fuel Station said we were to pay for the money the robbers took from us which was a very huge amount, mine alone was about 50k.

I was earning 9k as salary then, they stopped paying me and said they will continue paying after their 50k is complete from my salary.

I had to start helping our female neighbor to sweep the compound and wash the toilets and She paid me 1k each week.

It was that same woman who was my surety when I wanted to learn tailoring that sympathized with me.

She brought me food at work whenever she would pass there and tell me to come to the house after work to have dinner.

My colleagues started gossiping about the woman being my sugar mommy because of the way she and her husband and children cares for me.

I even at some point starting thinking that she had another motive cos the attention she was giving me was too much.

I haven't felt that kind of love all my life, not even from my family. I had to just keep an open mind while thanking God for the gift of that woman.

By November, my brother started hating the guy that was squatting me and was always trying to cause a rift between them.

It became too much and the guy had to ask me to leave. He gave me time to plan myself and on 23rd Dec 2019, I left for my village.

Before i left, our landlady called me and told me to come back after Xmas, she assured me that where I'll sleep will never be a problem, I agreed and left..."

PART 1

"5 years ago after the demise of my parents, I moved from my aunt's (my dad's elder sis)house to live with my elder brother who had just rented a new apartment, because of how difficult things were for her and her family.

It was so bad that I couldn't eat one good meal in a day and I wasn't working then.

When i was told I'll be going to stay with my elder brother, I was really happy, not because I was changing environment but at least I'll be eating well.

When I got to my brother's house, the first thing he used to welcome me was "As you've come over to stay with me, bear it in mind that you won't be eating in this house anytime you want even if there's food. I'll be the one to give you food or ask you to eat".

He said this in Igbo and he meant it. Not up to a month i came in, he started locking the cupboard where he stores food stuffs mainly Garri.

Most times when he wants to go out or travel, he'll ask me to take some of my things like clothes and find where to sleep till he comes back or he better still lock his cupboard and then travel.

Sometimes, I'll be outside with other neighbors gisting at night and when it's time for everyone to go inside, I'll go to our own apartment and find out he locked the door.

The worst is, this is just around 9pm sometimes 10pm. He'll just lock me outside and I'll end up sleeping outside.

Nost times i sleep in the kitchen or inside my neighbor's Keke NaPep, and mosquito will use me as dinner till the follow morning.

He will always ask me to leave his house at any slight misunderstanding.

The first day he did that, my landlady sat him down and asked him why treats me like a stranger. All he could say was "there's nothing I have to say, the main thing is just for him to leave my house"

I met a man who owned a tailoring shop and told him I wanted to learn tailoring, I told him my situation and how a skill would really help me. He accepted to teach me without taking a penny from me but asked me to get a surety..."

PART 4(FINAL PART)

"...He called me the next morning to know how I was doing and by evening he came around and we chatted for almost an hour before he left.

He began to drop by every evening to say hello after his work and we gradually became friends. He would bring me food most times, he's a great cook and he's super intelligent.

We found out we had a lot in common, we talked comfortably about everything without judging each other. I finally opened up to him about everything I was going through.

He took me to a hospital for a whole body check up, introduced me to a therapist and paid for all my sessions.

It was during my therapy sessions that I realized I never healed from the trauma of both r.a.p.e and heartbreak.

I began attending lectures again even though I was very far behind. He became my accountability partner and made sure I covered all the lectures I missed. My life began to blossom again

After 3 months, we officially began dating and he told me we could be celibate if I wanted but I said no. He met my parents twice but they didn't know we were an item.

I got pregnant for him twice and a.bor.ted them even with the contraceptive measures we took. He wasn't financially stable for marriage yet and we were scared of my parents getting to know and how bad it will damage their reputation as clergies.

After the second pregnancy happened, we both decided to be celibate to avoid further occurance of pregnancy and the risk of loosing my life plus the torture and guilt we go through after the ab.or.tion.

We had an agreement to fast for 7hours everyday and not to ask God for anything else except for his forgiveness and mercy from then till whenever we have a confirmation that he has forgiven us.

We did it for 3 months and just 3 days to complete three months, he got a huge contract he has been expecting for over 8 months. We took it as a confirmation that God is now at peace with us and we stopped fasting.

He proposed to me three weeks after getting the contract and I accepted. I asked him what would happen if I'm not able to give him a child knowing the number of ab.or.tions I've had plus the fact that he is an only son.

He told me that we had the ab.or.tions together and should bear the consequences together if it comes. He reminded me that there are people who get married as virgins that still have childbearing issues and we can resolve to options of surrogacy or adoption if that becomes the case.

He just kept telling me that everything in him tells him that we are meant to be husband and wife and whatever happened will remain a secret between us, our doctor and God.

We got married and it's been 8years of happy marriage, we have 3 children now(2 boys and a girl) and I'm heavy with another.

My husband has not changed in anyway towards me, he has never given me a reason to doubt him or regret marrying him. He loves me more everyday, supports and stands by me all the time.

I don't know what would have become of me if he didn't come my way. Whenever I reminisce what I've been through up till this moment, I shed tears of Joy and I'm forever grateful to God for the gift of my husband"

PART 3

"...My new relationship didn't even last up to 4 months, I dumped him for a slight wrong he did and moved to another relationship.

I got pregnant for him just 2 months we started dating. He wasn't someone I would love to marry and I wasn't ready to go into motherhood so I took the baby out without him knowing of both the pregnancy and ab.or.tion. I exited the relationship as well.

After getting rid of the pregnancy, I fell into serious depression. I stopped attending lectures, deleted my social media accounts, became very aggressive to people and was always indoors crying all day.

One day I stepped out to buy mineral and the little boy selling mineral told me that his drinks weren't chilled.

I flamed up and started shouting at him, asking him why he will bring out an unchilled drink to sell in the first place.

I was shouting at the top of my voice when a tall dark guy intervened to know why I was shouting at the small boy.

I switched my aggression to him immediately and this time I was shouting on top of my voice with tears in my eyes.

The guy just stood there looking at me as I was ranting. He wasn't embarrassed by the way I was talking to him and he didn't even talk back at me.

He just held me close and hugged me whispering "it's okay" to my ears... I broke down in tears right there in his arms. He just kept whispering "it's okay" and then he took out his Hankey and wiped my tears.

I felt embarrassed and didn't know if I should apologize or say thank you. He offered to walk me to where I would get a chilled drink and I nodded in affirmation.

He asked me to apologize to the little boy which I did and then we went to get the drink elsewhere. We got the drink and he also offered to take me home.

We got to my hostel, I gave him a seat and he asked what was annoying me so much to display what I did and why I was crying. I couldn't say a word cos each time I tried, tears will rush down.

He told me he has known me for quite a while from a distance and also noticed my recent odd behavior. He sensed something was wrong and has really been looking for opportunity to talk to me.

He talked to me for almost 30mins as though he was sent to tell me those healing words. He asked for my contact afterwards and left. I felt better and slept well that night..."

PART 2

"...I felt so numb as we walked to his house without speaking a word to each other. It was just tears rolling down my cheeks uncontrollably.

I kept asking God so many questions, what did I do to deserve this? Why did he allow that happen to me? Why didn't he intervene with a thunder strike or something? Is that the reward for trying my best to please him?

I was lost in those numerous questions on my mind that I didn't even know when we got home.

I went into the bathroom to have a thorough bathe and as the water went down my body, I bursted into a loud cry.

My boyfriend started knocking on the door but I didn't open. I was even mad at him, perhaps if he didn't hesitate in giving those guys his phone and money, they would have let us go without any harm.

I spent more than an hour I'm the bathroom, when I came out I saw him drinking a bottle of The lords dry gin. I didn't speak to him, I quietly laid on the bed.

Each time I tried to shut my eyes, I kept seeing a replay of everything that happened that night and sleep was very far away from me.

After about an hour, he came to lie on the bed and the next thing I felt was his hands caressing my b.o.o.bs.

I screamed in fear and jumped out of the bed and to my greatest surprise he was having an erection. He was drunk too and started begging me to sleep with him.

I couldn't process that level of m.adness from him, I just picked my purse to leave and he said "shey, this is what I've been begging you for and you were claiming sister Mary, are you still a virgin now? What again is your excuse?"

I couldn't believe those words actually came out of the same lips of a man that has been professing love to me. Those words pierced me like an arrow and hot tears rushed out of my eyes.

I just walked out and shut the door behind me. I just sat on the stairs and waited till it was bright enough for me to go home. He didn't come after me, I only heard him locking his door.

I trekked home as soon it was morning, my mom asked why I didn't come home last night and my phone has been off. She told me of a dream she had about me that night which she interpreted as my life being in danger.

Her dream was quite accurate but I told her that I lost my phone at the event and I slept at my girlfriend's place cos the event ended so late. I already knew what her reaction would be if i told her what actually happened.

We resumed school the next week and I went back to my hostel. I hated God so much, stopped going to church, and even dived into a new relationship with anger. I was done with the good girl life since God wasn't kind enough to protect me..."

PART 1

"My parents are clergies and they always preach against premarital s.e.x. My mother particularly would always ring it in my ear.

I began dating at age 20, I was already in the university and I did my best to maintain celibacy but It was very hard for my partner.

He tried all his best to make me have a change of mind but I stood my ground. I never spend a night at his place and I hardly spend time in any closed space with him.

He began cheating on me and whenever I confront him, he will say I was starving him and he didn't want to masturbate. He will still apologize and I'll start preaching to him of how he's offending God.

One evening, we went for a comedy event which ended very late (10:45pm) and we didn't want to go before the end of the show cos we spent money on ticket and the event was very interesting too.

When we were about to go, it began to rain heavily and we couldn't get a cab. We were waiting for the rain to stop and it was getting more dark so he suggested we trek to his house since his house was closer than mine.

We started walking home under the rain and I was scared cos it was so dark and the route to his place is quite lonely and narrow even during the day.

He told me not to be scared that it's his area and nothing will happen. We kept walking so fast and we were already in the narrow street that was a bit close to his house.

I began to perceive the smell of weed and I told him that we need to go back cos my heart was already sinking into my stomach at that point.

He told me we can't go back because we were almost at his place. We almost began to argue when we heard footsteps coming out of the bush behind us and we began to run.

They didn't chase after us, we only heard a whistle sound and two guys came out from the bush in front. We had already run into them, we looked behind and three guys were just close to us.

They brought out their guns and threatened to shoot us if we make any sound or move, I froze. They pointed their guns to our head and asked us to give them everything we had.

I gave them mine, my boyfriend hesitated and they began to beat him up. They took everything from him and two of the guys r.a.p.e.d me while the other three kept hitting my boyfriend.

When they were satisfied, they asked us to lie with our faces to the ground and they left with our phones and money.

It was like a movie to me. I lost the virginity I vowed to keep till I get married in the most hurting and despicable manner to a c.r.im.in.al...not even a friend or someone I loved! I just laid there crying.

My boyfriend got up and came to me, he held me up and begged me to keep my cool till we get home to avoid drawing more harmful attention to us...."

PART 5(FINAL PART)

"....When I woke up, I was lying on a bed, my boyfriend and all his belongings weren't there and his sister also. It was just my purse, phone and wrapper that was left with a drip in my hand.

For some seconds I felt it was a dream, I couldn't put up with the reality. I pinched myself to be sure it was reality and that was when I cried so loud. The nurses rushed and held me, asking me not to shout cos of other patients and for my health too.

I asked them to show me where he was kept and they told me that he has been deposited into the mortuary. I asked them to remove the drip so I can go and see him.

I got to the mortuary and I almost didn't recognize him, he had gotten darker and he looked entirely different. I couldn't go closer, I just turned it tears, went back to the ward, picked my stuffs and left.

The only money I had was N4,000 which was the money my boyfriend used to open an account for me. I got home and had my bathe. While bathing and crying, I was hearing sounds and movements in the room but I couldn't see anyone. I got scared

I went to see him at the mortuary everyday for three days and on the fourth day, I was told that his body has been taken by his family. I got home and kept having more scary experience so I told my madam about it at the shop and she suggested I come to stay with her.

Our rent already expired and my boyfriend was talking of renewing it before the accident happened and I have no money to renew it myself. I relocated to my madam's place.

It wasn't up to a week I packed into my madam's house, a call came in and it was from a woman who identified herself as his mom. She said she needs her son's house address so her children can come and carry his property. I banged the call, sent her the address and blocked her line.

I saw his burial poster the next week and was planning to go and pay my last respect but my madam and my colleagues discouraged me saying that it will endanger my life and I don't need anyone to tell me that his family is capable of killing me. I finally didn't go.

It's been 4 months living with my madam and it's been hell. Her husband keeps coming to disturb me at night for him to sleep with me. My madam on her own side has turned me to her maid, gives me food only once in a day and most times I get little or no sleep.

Her husband started being very mean to me and told my madam that he no longer wants me to live in their house with the claim that I disrespect him and he has been having scary dreams about me.

My madam has asked me to leave and all my plea has fallen on deaf ears. I went back to my boyfriend's house and another tenant was already occupying there. I just packed my things under the staircase at my madam's place and that's where I sleep now

I can't go back to my sister's place, the only option is to go back to my village to start life afresh but I don't even have any money to travel and I don't know what awaits me at the village.

I'm filled with suicide thoughts, I cry every single day, no one is looking out for me, death took away the only person that truly cared about me just when I thought luck has finally shined on me. I'm so lonely, hungry and depressed. I regret being born into this wicked world"

PART 4

I quickly called his sister and told her what happened, she told me they would come the next day cos it was late to start coming from the village. I watched my boyfriend go through severe pain, he couldn't sit, can't turn his head, can't raise his legs, he was just lying helplessly and crying. The only words he kept muttering to me was that he doesn't want to die.

The next morning, his leg was swollen and I drew the attention of the doctor to it. He came and after examining him, he asked me to take him for an x-ray and CT scan. I checked my boyfriend's account balance and it was N930,000. I left to get a bus that will take us to the diagnostic centre, before I got back his sister was already there.

It was my first time of seeing her, I greeted her and her response was "pray nothing happens to him else you will have questions to answer". I was shocked to even utter a word. I just told her that I was about taking him for x-ray before she came so she can join us if she wants.

We got to the diagnostic centre and had the x-ray and CT scan done which cost us almost 400k. The result showed that he broke his spinal cord and he will possibly not be able to stand on his feet again. It was at that moment that I broke down in tears. The doctor said he needs to undergo surgery and it will cost us 3 million naira but we can make a deposit of 1.8 million for them to commence the surgery.

I couldn't tell my boyfriend all that the doctor said, I was still looking for a way to tell him not knowing that his sister has told him already when I left to get his drugs.

I came back and my boyfriend started asking me to take him to his village, that there's no point looking for money cos there's no where we can get such money.

He told me that it's better for him to die than to be in a wheelchair knowing that his family doesn't really care about him and he doesn't want to be a burden to me cos I have no money to cater for myself let alone taking care of him.

I tried to calm him down and give him hope but he wasn't listening. He even got angry with me and refused to speak anymore word to me. His sister was there and wasn't even behaving like they are related by blood. She didn't show any atom of pity. I had to ask her if my boyfriend was truly her brother and she said that they were step-siblings.

From that day onwards, my boyfriend became more hostile to me, refused eating or taking his drugs. He was trying his best to push me away, he kept telling me to go back to the house and continue my work.

I was loosing my mind, I was still wearing the same clothes I wore on the day he had the accident. I looked like a shadow of myself, slimmed down like someone with a very bad disease.

I had no one to comfort me except our neighbors who came to see him and my madam at work. My sister never called or visited us and I'm very sure she and her husband heard what happened cos the news spread allover.

I went to the toilet and cried my heart out for some minutes, when I came out his sister had already grabbed the bag containing all the money people who came to see him dropped for him. The bag also contained his ATM and phone.

I asked her what she was doing with it and she said it will be in her custody from now henceforth since it's her brother's belonging. I was already very mad with her and needed to show her a little bit of it but there was up to 9 other patients there so I swallowed my anger.

I went to my boyfriend's bedside to cover him properly and noticed he was no longer breathing but his eyes were open and tears were rolling out so I ran out and called the doctor.

The doctor came, examined him, stretched his body properly and gently covered his face with his wrapper. I asked why he covered him that way and he told me my boyfriend was dead already. I felt a heavy rush of dizziness and fainted..."

PART 3

"....He begged me to go and stay with my sister at the hospital till her husband comes. After much pleas, I went reluctantly. I got there, she saw me and couldn't utter a word. I just greeted her and sat down.

The doctor said she can't do normal delivery cos the baby's heartbeat was already too high and the more the contractions, the higher the risk of loosing her baby so the only option was CS.

My sister refused and said her pastor assured her of giving birth like Hebrew woman. The doctor immediately referred us to another hospital.

I was not having it at all and her husband was still not there yet so I took her phone and called my mum cos my mum wouldn't pick if I call her with my line.

She picked and I went straight to the point so that she won't bang the call on me. She asked me to give my sister the phone and after some back and forth my sister gave in and then we left to FMC

We got there and the doctor said the same thing the previous doctor said, my sister asked him to commence with the CS. We were asked to deposit money before the surgery and it became another problem, my sister had only 20k. I called my boyfriend and he sent 30k making it 50k.

The doctor sedated her and commenced the surgery. Not up to 20mins I was called into the theater to bear witness that it was a stillbirth. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I was excused from the theater.

I called my mom immediately and told her what happened, she told me to hide it from my sister until she comes from the village.
It was after the call that my sister's husband came in and started asking me stupid questions.

I was so annoyed
and I just walked out without saying a word to him. I went home so I can freshen up and come back while her husband stays with her.

On my way home, I called my mom and asked her to tell my sister's husband what the situation was and what he should tell my sister about her baby. When I got there, my sister was already awake and her husband was there too.

She was in severe pains, I felt so bad for her. She asked me of her baby and I told her that whatever her husband told her was true, all she needs is to relax her mind, get enough strength and heal very well.

I stayed there with her for 1 whole week, sleeping on the floor and skipping work. It wasn't easy at all. I clean her everyday, change her pad, help her sit and lie whenever she wants and still put up with her queries of the whereabout of her baby.

My sister remained very ungrateful and rude to me. She never asked me if I had eaten or even thanked me or my boyfriend for coming to her aid. Her husband on the other hand left that same day he came. He comes every two days and doesn't bring money or food while coming.

My mom came, she told my sister what happened. It was a very hard pill for my sister to swallow, she created a huge scene. My mom managed to calm her down but my sister never stopped crying.

Her pastor and some members came to see her, they prayed for her and left without giving her a dime. I told my mom that I needed to go home and she obliged.

I resumed work and each day after work I go home to bring food and my cloth for the next day and head to the hospital. I went to work everyday from the hospital. This routine continued, my boyfriend took care of all the money I've been spending.

When it was time for my sister to get discharged, the hospital brought a bill of 200,000 and she had no money to pay so we started scampering for money.

My mum brought 40,000 I pleaded with my boyfriend again to help them and he gave me 60,000 which I gave my mom and she didn't ask me how I got it.

I left and that was the last time I saw my sister. I don't know how they got the rest of the money to settle the bill. I was just calling once in a while to check on her. I continued going to work and everything came back to normalcy for me.

After 2 months, I was at work when I got a call that my boyfriend had an accident with his bike, the person that hit him ran away and my boyfriend was being rushed to a nearby hospital. The news was a huge shock to me, I picked my bag and headed straight the hospital.

When I got to the hospital, I saw them at the gate and they told me the hospital rejected him. We went to another hospital from there and he was rejected as well. We finally went to Imo specialist hospital, they asked me to get a card for him and they admitted him immediately. They did the routine tests and commenced treatment..."

PART 2

"....I already made a very friend at her shop, he has been asking me out but I was yet to give him an answer. I went to shop that day and waited for the guy cos he always patronizes us, he came and I told him I've accepted to date him and he was so happy.

I started taking money from the shop to atleast eat once without my sister's consent. I was eating one day in her shop when she walked in and she let all heavens loose on me and was telling people that I stole from her.

She was hitting me but I didn't defend myself because she was pregnant. Her neighbors couldn't do anything cos they weren't in good terms with her and doesn't want to involve in anything concerning her.

My boyfriend was coming to buy something and saw what was happening and intervened.
It was at that point that I broke down in tears and started telling him everything I've been going through in my sister's house.

He calmed the situation diplomatically and took me away from there.
He took me to a restaurant and bought me food, he wasn't happy that I hid all those things from him and he suggested that I come to live with him.

I agreed without hesitation and we went to my sister's house together. We met her husband and he didn't utter a word. I packed my things and we left.

I was living happily with my boyfriend, he provided all I needed, got me a new phone and retrieved my line. He was the first and only man that saw my nakedness.

He was a plumber and had a bike that he uses commercially whenever he doesn't have any plumbing work to do.

It wasn't up to a week after I retrieved my line, my mom called me and was at the top of her voice expressing her dissapointment in me. My sister told her I was stealing from her, left her house and had started selling my body for money.

My mom didn't allow me to talk, she told me that she regrets giving birth to me and I'll face disapointment all my life just the way I've disappointed her and ended the call. I cried helplessly throughout that day.

I told my boyfriend everything when he got back from work and he was speechless. He assured me things will be fine with time. He asked me if I was interested to learn a skill and I told him I would learn hair dressing.

The next day we went hunting for where would be suitable for me to learn hairdressing and the requirements for it. We found somewhere that was quite far from where we was living. He collected the list from them and we left. On our way home, he bought some of the things on the list.

We got home and discussed of how I would start work. He said he will give me transport and feeding money everyday but will come to pick me anytime we close so late especially during December period. I was so happy that night.

We went back there the next day with everything he bought, we filled the agreement form and he signed as my surety. I was welcomed officially and he left. I was so happy that a new phase has started for me.

I would always see my sister either on my way to work or while coming back from work and she would act like she doesn't know me and doesn't even respond to my greeting.

I came back from work one evening and my boyfriend told me that he helped my sister on his way back from work. She fell into labour at her shop and was looking for a bike when he saw her so he gave her a lift.

He also helped her call her husband to come to the hospital. He waited for more than an hour and her husband wasn't there yet so he left..."

PART 1

"I'm from Ideato south. My father is late and things has really been hard for my mom and us.

My paternal uncle is responsible for my father's demise. He confirmed it, mocked us with it and told us that we will never breathe and truly we have not been breathing.

My mom sells garden egg leaves at Onitsha. She's always suffering one poison or the other especially during planting and harvest season.

She has been moving from one church to another looking for solution that we still haven't found.

She couldn't afford to train us in school, we all stopped at senior secondary school except our lastborn who is still in SS1.

My eldest brother travelled to the north to serve one of our kinsman for over 11years now and hasn't returned home. He doesn't pick our calls for over 2 years now and we don't know the area he stays in Kaduna.

Our kindsman that took him told us that he settled him with 200k last three years after he served him for 8 years, so he doesn't know his whereabout.

My mom cries everyday asking God to bring back her son. We've tried different methods of prayers and spiritual works and end up spending the money we don't even have still with no solution.

My eldest sister started behaving strangely two years after my father's death, we overlooked it and before you know it it became more serious.

We've taken her to so many spiritualist to no avail. She's in the village now with my mom cos her mental health has been damaged, it hurts to call her a mad person.

Our second daughter got pregnant in 2019 and after 2 months the man that got her pregnant came, paid her dowry and took her to Owerri.

I was staying with my aunt at anambra who was seriously maltreating me. I couldn't tell my mom cos I know she can't take care of all of us if I come back home.

One day, my mom called to tell me that my sister wants me to come to Owerri with her so I can help her in their house. I was happy I was finally leaving my aunt's house.

When I got to my sister's house, she and her husband were living in a 1 bedroom flat so I was staying in the parlor, I sleep on the floor with the wrapper my mom gave me. My sister sells foodstuffs so every morning I go to her shop and come back at night.

My sister's husband doesn't do anything and doesn't contribute anything to the house. My sister does everything(before I came to help her)and he still hits her even while pregnant.

He slapped my sister in my presence one time for telling him that she had no money when he asked for it.

I called my mom and told her, my mom called my sister to hear her own part and told her to come home instead of dying there. My sister denied being beaten and as they ended the call, she started scolding me.

She said I wanted to destroy her marriage and will not tolerate it. She warned me clearly to stay away from her marital issues.

My sister and her husband became very mean to me, they will leave all chores including washing his pants for him. My sister stopped giving me food and seized my phone .

I didn't want to tell mom about it so I decided to leave their house. I wasn't planning on going back to the village either cos my mum will still look for where to send me just to lessen her burden....."

“What?” Zoe exclaimed in surprise
“Just delete it” Arabella said
“Sorry, but he has already seen it” She said looking Zoe with a baby face.
“What? When? How?” Zoe asked confused
“Which one do you want her to answer?” Arabella asked chuckling
“And he sent a reply” Charvi announced
“What did he say?” Zoe asked feeling nervous
“He sent a smiling emoji and ‘lack dancing skills but have a great voice’ “ Charvi read the message out
“And he also said, he is sure saving it” Charvi added with a smile
“What does he know about dancing? Who gave him the right to rate me? And why is he saving the video?” Zoe asked angrily
“You have his number, you can call him” Charvi grin
Arabella chuckled again.
“It all your fault. If you had not recorded it, this won't happen” Zoe said to Charvi
“How is it my fault? it's all your fault Zoe, if you have not tried to take the phone I won’t have send it to me the wrong person” Charvi responded trying to defend herself
“sent” Charvi told both girls. With no emotion on her face
“Who did you send it to?” Charvi asked with her teeth grind together
“Calm down girl, I sent it to you and Arabella” Charvi replied
“Received” Arabella replied
“Received” Zoe said
“Let the game begin” Charvi declared
“Okay” Zoe said
“I will watch” Arabella said
“Okay. You can watch me win her” Charvi
“Just keep on dreaming” Zoe tells her
After playing for hours, Charvi won through their entire play. Arabella always smiled when Zoe complains, while Charvi laughs hard. It was already afternoon.
“Let’s just play this last time” Zoe said
“You have been saying that for a long time now” Charvi responded already tired
A knock was heard outside the door
“Who is there?” Charvi asked softly looking at the door
“Antony” A male voice relied
“Antony? Where will I hid? He can’t see me, no I can’t see him” Zoe said in whisper as she freak out
Charvi giggled
“Come in” Charvi said

𝑼𝑵𝑪𝑬𝑹𝑻𝑨𝑰𝑵𝑻𝒀

As I sauntered into the hospital (building), a sharp smell hit my nostril, a mix of yellow-malaria tablet and disinfectant. It filled the air in the reception area, and the people spread across the room seemed comfortable with it, (or didn't mind the smell). As l looked across the rows of people sitting, I sighted mum in the backseat, beckoning at me (to come). Reluctantly, I scrunched my face in disgust dragging myself up to her. As I do so, many or perhaps all eyes turned from the tv face at me. Although I didn't look back, l sensed them.

I sat quietly beside her and heaved a sigh. 𝑐𝑎𝑛'𝑡 𝑤𝑎𝑖𝑡 𝑡𝑜 𝑔𝑒𝑡 𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝒉𝑒𝑟𝑒.

"What's wrong?" mum asked

" Ogun. Mo gborun ogun." ( Drug. I smell drug)
I told her.

she slightly hissed and looked away. " Where's your father? " she looked back to me.

" He's coming," I answered uninterestedly

My focus in on what I'll be facing. Uneasiness swirls through me like oxygen flows through the blood. Why won't it? When l have heard worse. Even Big bro, in his words, stated: Omo na pain o!

The memory of this words always killed any hint of courage I manage to have.

I turn to mum. " Mummy, will they give me sleeping pills?

Her expression displayed uncertainty. " Well, you just have to wait till then. They may give you."

In that moment, Dad walked in and joined us in the backseat.
" Shey awon doctor o ti da yin lo won ni?" (have the doctors not attended to you?)
he asked facing mum.

" Rara." (No) Mum replied.

Then, immediately, a nurse beckoned at us " E ma bo"
she told me to stand on a (kind of) weight balance and ascertained a measurement. After jotting few words in her notebook, she asked that we followed her. My anxiety had steeped-up. The time is nigh I knew.

We went through a well- illuminated corridor and when we approached a stairs, the nurse cast a glance at my parents. " You may go. There's restriction to non-personnel. I'll take him from here" At once, a chill zinged down my spine. 𝑇𝒉𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝐼 𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑠 𝒉𝑒𝑟𝑒. Now, I have to face this alone, without mum, without my parents. ( I wanted to cry).

I looked back at my parents. They didn't say nothing. Mum had told me that this is a necessity. 𝐴 𝒉𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑠𝒉 𝑛𝑒𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑦, I thought. Dad only gave that reassuring smile. And mum, she seemed to pray in her mind. I tried to put on the bravest face I could to keep mum at ease. To show her I wasn't afraid and all will be fine, and she needn't be afraid, too.

I waited for mum to say something —anything, before l proceeded. But nothing came. Although, in some kind of way I couldn't explain, her silence consoled me.

𝐼𝑓 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑎𝑛𝑦𝑡𝒉𝑖𝑛𝑔, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝒉𝑒𝑟, 𝑡𝒉𝑖𝑠 𝑚𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑏𝑒 𝑎 𝑠𝑢𝑐𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑠.

The nurse led the way, and I followed like an obedient cat raiks after its mistress..

''I will come back for u but this time in a rough way", Frank threatened, as he was being taken to the station.

It's been one months now Frank has been taken to the station, in that one month, good things has been happening in tessy's life, she later found love again in the sight of Ken, they both started dating, going out together and having a sweet and fantastic moment, though Tessy wasn't living with Ken, she was staying with her mother, she already told her mother everything about Frank and also asked for forgiveness, her mother forgave her and advise her on so many things, after advising her, Tessy later told her mother about Ken who asked her to be his girlfriend, her mother smiled and told her to be very careful about men and also advise her not to live with him in his house until a man legally marries a woman, that is when the woman can move in with the man, after everything, Tessy thanked her mother and also sticked to her advise.
.
Ken called Tessy on phone and told her to come to his place that he have a surprise for her, Tessy smiled, after they ended the call, Tessy hurried to the bathroom to take a shower, after she was done taking a shower, she puts on an attractive dress, do some make up on her face, picked up her handbag and left their house, after the long drive, she finally got to ken's house, she greeted the gateman before walking inside, she got inside and met Ken watching a movie holding a glass of wine, sipping on it, Tessy pecked him on the forehead before sitting down smiling ''babe u are not looking bad", Ken admired smiling ''thanks love! u said u have a surprise for me? am waiting", Tessy said smiling ''calm down my queen, u just arrived! won't u get some chilled drink, u know the weather is hot", Ken said smiling ''the surprise first before any other thing", Tessy teased ''hahahahaha! women love surprises! ok!

''Officer wait! why are u handcuffing me? wat is my offence? Ken asked looking at the both officers ''u are been arrested for attempted murder", replied the 1st officer ''attempted murder how? Ken asked ''do not question us, we are doing our job! move", the 1st officer said and pushed Ken ''it seems u police officers don't know ur job? I called u guys to arrest someone and the person u guys are to arrest lied that I shot him and u believe him just like that, is that how u do ur jobs? u are arresting me, where is an evidence to prove that he is saying the truth? come on Frank do u have an evidence? Ken asked ''yes! do u have any evidence that he shot u? the 2nd officer asked as Ken eyed him ''yes officers I have an evidence", Frank said and brought out a black nylon then open it, and brought out a small gun, ken's eyes almost pooped out on seeing the gun with his name boldly written on it ''this is the gun he used in shooting my legs, it fell from the bag he kept it without him knowing so I have to pick it up as an evidence", Frank lied ''where did u get that? Ken asked surprisedly ''young man are u the owner of that gun? the 1st officer asked Ken ''yes am the owner, how he got it is wat I don't know, I never shot him with the gun", Ken said almost in tears ''but why do u have a gun at ur place at the first place, wat were u doing with a gun? The 2nd officer asked ''for my protection and nothing more! how did u get this gun Frank? u are such a demon", Ken cursed ''young man! everything is clear that u shot him with ur gun, the evidence is clear, move it", the 2nd officer shouted and started dragging Ken outside, they got to the door and all of a sudden they started hearing a tiny low voice ''officers can u hear that? Ken asked ''hear wat? the both officers asked at the same time ''that voice! it seems someone needs our help", Ken said ''officers don't listen to him, he wants to run away", Frank said feeling uneasy ''i can now hear the voice clearly! it's Tessy! who knows wat this demon has done to her? officers pls let's go check on her", Ken said running back inside ''officer kunle! u stay here and watch over him(Frank) while I go know where the voice is coming from", the 1st officer said and ran after Ken ''where are u guys going? Frank shouted and managed to stood up.
.
Ken and the 1st officer got to the direction of where the noise was coming from, Ken pushed the door and walked in with the 1st officer, they got inside and met Tessy being tied up both legs and hand, and her mouth was being tied with a small piece of white cloth, Ken immediately ran and untied her legs, hands and mouth, ''thank u Ken for coming to my rescue, Frank is such a monster! I will make sure he pay dearly for every bad thing he did to me, I swear! I never knew I was living with a demon in the past six years, Ken thank u", Tessy cried and immediately hugged Ken, meanwhile Frank was at the sitting room feeling uneasy ''are u okay? the 2nd officer asked ''errm errm ye yes am fine, I wi.....", Frank hasn't finished his statement when he sighted Ken, Tessy and the 1st officer coming to the sitting room, he panicked and was about running away when the 1st officer shot him on the leg, he groaned in pain and fell on the ground, ''so u deceived us and wanted to run away? officer kunle take him away, let me remove the handcuff on this young man's hand", the 1st officer said and immediately removed the handcuff on Ken's hand, ''officer let him rot in jail! demon", Tessy shouted while Frank was being dragged roughly outside, they got outside and immediately Frank looked at Ken with a blood shot eyes ''i will come back for u, but this time, in a rough way", Frank threatened as he was being taken to the station.

PLEASE MARRY ME

Episode:11

.

''Oh welcome my love, how is ur aunt and the new baby? Frank asked smiling ''errm errm ye my aunt and her new baby are fine! my love pls can I asked u a question? Tessy asked looking worried ''okay wat is it? Frank asked looking at Tessy ''where u at this house all through the day? Tessy asked looking at him in a suspicious way ''yes off course darling, I was at home all through the day, but why the question? Frank asked pretending not to know anything ''errm nothing just asking! ok let me go prepare something for we to eat, I will be right back", Tessy said, pecked him on the forehead before retiring inside, immediately Tessy left, Frank smiled ''this girl must not know anything about me, am not ready to loose her not for anything! and as for Ken, I will keep tormenting him until he learn to mind his business, useless man", Frank said in a low tone, stood up with his laptop and walked away.
.
Tessy was in the kitchen cooking when a message came through her phone, she left whatever she was doing, picked up her phone and reads the message, the message reads 'Tessy u need to be careful about that Frank of a guy, he is not wat u think he is, my advice for u is to leave that relationship and stop wasting ur time, because Frank will never marry u, that is because he is a gay, ur so called Frank is a gay and a notorious gangster, I own that top star hotel and Frank is my regular customer there, he normally comes to my hotel with a young boy, sleeping around with him, though I warned him about it but he shuuu me up threatening to kill me if anyone hears of it, that ur so called fiance is a gay a professional one at that, step out from that relationship, the earlier the better, do not tell him I said anything to u, he threatened to kill me if I tell u who he is, am taking risk telling u now! Frank is just wasting ur time, he doesn't love u as he claims, he is already in love with his gay partner, which is a guy, and they both love each other so much, so stop deceiving urself thinking he will marry u, he deceived u with a ring because of the pressure u do put on him, leave that relationship as soon as possible, do not say I did not warn u, have a nice day bye", from Ken, Tessy eyes almost pooped out after reading the message ''oh Jesus! oh Jesus! Frank a gay? how possible is that? or is Ken telling me that so I could leave Frank and come to him? am not sure he is saying the truth", Tessy said worriedly, Frank needs to tell me if it's true", Tessy said, and immediately left the kitchen heading to Frank's room, she got there and was about opening the door when she noticed that Frank was on call but was talking in a low tone, Tessy puts her ear closely on the door, ''charlie dear! don't worry I will meet u at our usual joint, I hope u are going to give me a good style today? anyway wat do u want me to get for u when coming? Frank finished making calls and ended the conversation with ''i love u so much Charlie! my world! I can't wait to suck that thing in between ur two legs! thanks my love, have a nice day, see u later", Tessy almost screamed on hearing all that ''so Ken was right about Frank? so I have been wasting my time with this gay? wasted years! aaaaah aaaaah! Frank must pay dearly for this I swear", Tessy muttered within her as tears was dropping down her eyes ''frank u must pay for wasting my time", Tessy said within her walking away with tears dropping uncontrollable from her eyes.
.
Meanwhile, Ken finished dressing up ready to go to his place of work, he went outside his compound and was very surprised not to see his car ''my car! where is my car? it was parked here, where is it? where is my car? Ken shouted looking around the compound ''musa! Musa", he shouted the gateman's name, who ran up to him ''oga u call me? the gateman said ''musa my car! where is my Lexus car? Ken panicked ''haba oga I think say u drive ham comot! I swear I no see ur car", Musa said ''u must be stupid Musa! u mean to tell me u were at the gate and my car was missing without u knowing the where about? Musa u are a suspect! tell me where u kept my car before I call the police for u", Ken threatened walking inside, he got inside and saw a letter on the glass table, he took the later and immediately open it, it read ''after my warning u still went ahead to tell my woman who I was? u will pay with ur life I promise u that, I took ur car and am coming after ur life", Ken heart almost skipped severally after reading the letter, he later left his house and go straight to the police station.
.
Ken and the police got to Frank's house and met Frank on the ground groaning in pain, his head and two legs where bandaged ''officer look at him, pls arrest him, he was the one that threatened to kill me if I spill a word about him to his girlfriend! arrest this bastard and ignore his acting", Ken shouted pointing at Frank ''young man u are under arrest for ur evil act and threatening to kill him, quietly follow us to the station because anything u do or say here will be use against u in the court of law, but wait! wat happened to ur legs and head? one of the officers asked ''thank u officer! this man here came to my house not quite long ago and shot my two legs, and used the gun and hit me hard on the head! he even threatened to kill me when he comes back, but I was surprised he later came with the police", Frank lied, and groan in pain ''and u young man why did u shut him? why taking justice into ur hand? the police asked Ken who opened his mouth wide in shock ''me? I never did that officers, he is lying! wat kind of a human being are u Frank? officers pls don't believe him, he is lieing", Ken defended ''young man! u are under arrest for attempted murder", one of the officers said, brought out a handcuff and handcuff Ken.

''If u dare tell her who I am, I will kill u and I mean every bit of my words! so if u love ur life, keep ur mouth shut", Ken reads and blinked his eyes twice, he looked at Tessy then to his phone ''are u okay? Tessy asked in a concerned tone ''errm ye yes am okey", replied Ken ''ur mood changed immediately u looked at ur phone? tell me, is everything alright? Tessy asked again ''sure am okay", Ken responded ''ok then am all ears, u were about saying something when a message came to ur phone", Tessy said ''tessy to be honest with u, u are not safe in that relationship of urs, am not saying this because am interested in u, no! I said it because I care as a brother and as a friend, Frank ur so called fiance will and can never marry u, come out from that relationship or accept to be single for life", Ken said and looked at his phone ''tell me where u are driving at? just tell me wat I need to know", Tessy said while Ken sighed heavily ''tessy! ur fiance is a ga....", hasn't finished his statement when they heard gun shot inside the compound ''oh my God did u hear that? Tessy asked terrified ''i guessed it gun shot! let me go know wat is happening inside my compound", Ken said, stood up and was about going when Tessy stopped him ''ken no don't go, it might be dangerous out there u know? I hope ur doors are locked? Tessy asked feeling more terrified ''we just heard a gun shot Inside my compound and u are telling me not to go check wat is going on? dear I need to go and besides my gateman is there at the gate", Ken said walking away, he got to the compound and screamed his gateman's name, ''oga I dey come", the gate man shouted running to Ken ''wat happened? I heard gun shot inside my compound, wat is going on? Ken asked looking around the compound ''gun shot inside this compound when me dey around? oga nooo I no hear any gun shot o, I dey this gate since and nobody don enter this compound except that fine aunty way find u come", the gateman said ''are u kidding me? gunshots I heard clearly and u are telling me u didn't hear any gunshots! u better be careful and watchful", Ken said walking inside, he got inside and was surprised not to see Tessy ''tessy are u in the rest room? Ken shouted on top of his voice but got no response ''tessy! Tessy! Tessy where are u? Ken shouted walking upstairs, he got upstairs and searched the whole room for Tessy but couldn't find her ''tessy where are u? are u playing a prank on me, pls stop already and come out u are scaring me", Ken shouted coming down the stairs, he searched thoroughly for Tessy inside the whole room but still couldn't find her ''wat is happening? I left her inside this house before going outside, where could she be? Ken asked walking outside, he got outside and asked the gate man if Tessy passed the gate but got shocked when the gateman said No boldly ''wat is happening? did she disappear or wat? this is strange", Ken said walking inside.
.
A limousine car stopped right on Frank's gate, the door opened and two men on mask pushed Tessy out of the car and gave a sternly warning not to be seen in Ken's house ever again, else, she will have herself to blame, after warning her, they entered the car and immediately drove off, Tessy stood up cleaning herself ''wat just happened? who are those men that captured me? and why did they dropped me right in frank's gate? wat just happened? who sent them? Ken! yes Ken was about telling me something about Frank when we heard gunshots! something is not right here! are u sure Frank don't have anything to do with all this? if I go inside there and couldn't find him at home, then he is a suspect", Tessy said, opened the gate entered and locked it, ''Frank! Frank! Frank! Frank", Tessy shouted, walking inside, he got to the sitting and was surprised to see Frank operating on his laptop, with a glass of wine on the table, he was looking very innocent ''oh welcome my love! how is ur aunt and the new baby", Frank asked smiling.....

READY TO LOVE?

“Am getting married” she said as she fell on the bed and continue to cry
Zoe was lying on the bed reading a novel, while Charvi was sitting on the couch changing the TV’s channel.
“What?!” Zoe said in surprise
Charvi rushed to the bed and sat close to Arabella
“When? How?” Charvi asked
“Dad is marrying me out to someone whose family company is the richest and biggest” She announced as she cried more
“what is wrong with your dad?” Zoe asked angry
“How can he do this? Why didn’t I get such opportunity?” Charvi asked
Arabella smiled and shake her head acting disappointed
“Charvi! Is not time to joke” Zoe said as she gave her a cold stare
“Yes ma” Charvi responded
“Babe tell us more” Zoe said
“I have to stay with him and get to know him for one month, and that will be next month”
“Next month? That is just next tomorrow!” Zoe uttered in disbelieve
“So we only have one day and some hours to spend with you” Charvi said sadly
“Cheer up girl” Charvi told Arabella
“Let go out, let do something fun together. After today we only have one day left” zoei said sadly
“I don’t think I can go out” She replied with sad eyes starring at them
“That okay. Charvi and I can do some fun things for you to watch or we all can play some games” Zoe tried to comfort her with her words
“Yes, we will make you laugh” Charvi joined in trying to comfort her
Charvi took her phone and started playing an Afro beat
“We are dancing to this beat” Charvi announced
“Dancing? You know am not that good at it” Zoe uttered sadly
“You better learn or I will end up being the winner” Charvi said
“I will win you even with my poor skills” Zoe said trying to comfort herself
“Okay, let see who wins” Charvi replied as she smiled
After five minutes of Charvi dancing, Arabella smiled. Charvi is a beauty when she dance every single moves looks gorgeous.
Zoe stood up from where she was sitting and walked to where Charvi was dancing.
“I will show you what dancing really means” Zoe stated
The beat started and Zoe started dancing. With Zoe’s face looking down, she lifted it with a violent move, Arabella and Charvi eyes widen. Zoe danced jumping from one place to another, shaking her body. Charvi took her phone out and started a visual-audio recording.
The beat ended and “A loner” by Hana started playing. Zoe started singing along. Charvi paused the music and ended the recording.
“Hey! Who asked you to stop the music?” Zoe asked
“You could have said you will show us what fight dancing really is” Charvi said laughing.
“At least I made her laughed” Zoe said pointing at Arabella
“Girl, listen and listen well, don’t you ever dance at a public place. You have a sweet voice but dancing is not your thing” Charvi said with seriousness
“Am sure keeping the video” She added
“Send it to me” Arabella said
“Arabella you too?” Zoe asked already feeling annoyed
“why would I want to miss such an opportunity to have a cute video of you?” Arabella asked rhetorically
“Hey! Charvi delete that video!” Zoe yelled as she tried to get Charvi’s phone
“Sent” Charvi said
“You both better delete it” Zoe said as she tried hard to get Charvi’s phone again
“I haven’t seen it” Arabella said softly
“Check it probably. Are you sure you haven’t? Don’t worry am coming to check it” Charvi told her
Charvi went to check Arabella’s phone she turned off and on her Wi-Fi but there was nothing.
“Are you sure you sent it?” Zoe who was angry got anxious and asked
“Yes I did. Let me check it” Charvi replied and check her phone
“OMG!” Charvi yelled after looking at her phone.
“What?” Both girls asked
“I mistakenly sent it to Antony” Charvi replied
Zoe eyes widen

''Do u know who this man here is? Ken asked and immediately Frank raised up his head and signal Ken not to say anything ''frank wat is going on here? Tessy asked looking at both Frank and Ken ''babe u need to go inside", Frank said to Tessy feeling uneasy ''frank u are not saying anything and it's beginning to bore me, for the last time wat is going on here? can someone atleast talk to me", Tessy shouted ''didnt I just tell u to go inside Tessy? Frank shouted ''am going nowhere Frank! am interested to know wat this young man wants to say! ken pls tell me something", Tessy said looking at Ken ''our ladies needs to be careful in the relationship they jump into! not every man u see is actually a man! Tessy dear! don't waste ur precious time dating a man that will and can never marry u, be wise! I take my leave", Ken said walking away ''dont date a man that will and can never marry u! wat did he mean by that? something is really fishy about this Frank of a guy I need to know", Tessy thought within her running after Ken who has already entered his car, meanwhile Frank was also running after Tessy calling her name but Tessy paid a deaf ear to him, Tessy got to ken's car and knocked on the window, Ken whined down the glass, looked at Tessy and smiled ''ken pls u can't go like that, tell me wat I need to know pls", Tessy said ''i pity u Tessy, here is my complementary card, call me", Ken said and handed Tessy his complementary card which she gladly collected ''call me", Ken said and drove off, ''u will not call him will u? Frank asked while Tessy looked at him from head to toe, eyed him and hissed ''tessy u will not try such, let me have that card", Frank said stretching forth his hand to collect it ''watch me call him", Tessy said and made to leave but stopped ''frank! if I found out u are hidding something from me, I will leave u for good and will never forgive u", Tessy threatened ''tessy! that guy is a lunatic! he is not normal, he just want to deceive u", Frank said ''then why did u bury ur head low on the ground the moment u set ur eyes on him? it obvious there is something about u, u are not telling me but I must make sure I find it out in the mouth of Ken, kiss this relationship goodbye the moment I found out u are hidding something from me", Tessy said, eyed him and walked away,. ''this guy! how did he found out I live here? now he wants to spoil my relationship with Tessy? I can't let that happen, not in this life, I love Tessy so much and can't do without her, this guy can't come from nowhere and want to spoil my relationship with her, no way! I need to look for a way to collect that complimentary card from Tessy, and I needs to shut that man's mouth! Tessy must not know wat I'm into, she must not know who I am", Frank said walking inside, he got inside and met Tessy walking to and fro the sitting room ''babe u need to calm down pls", Frank said and held her on the waist ''calm down u say? Frank! tell me wat u are hidding from me I beg u, I don't want to loose u at the end, a problem shared is problem solved, pls tell me let me hear", Tessy said almost in tears ''ok calm down I will tell u everything, come have a seat", Frank said as they both sat ''am all ears",Tessy said ''it all started in the university where I schooled, Ken used to be my friend then but something happened that broke our friendship", Frank said and paused ''so tell me wat happened? am curious", Tessy said ''ken asked me then to borrow him some money which I did, but he later find it hard to pay me back, this got me angry, so one night, I broke into his hostel and took all his belongings there, including his ATM, after that night, I was nowhere to be found in that university, he looked everywhere for me but couldn't find me until today, that was why I was shocked and surprised on seeing him, and now he saw me and want to ruining our relationship", Frank said while Tessy sighed heavily ''i don't buy that, something tells me u are not saying the truth, the mood of Ken shows that u are into something that isn't good! I don't think u are telling me the truth", Tessy said shaking her head ''have I ever lied to u before? so u don't trust me after six years of our relationship? Tessy am disappointed in u", Frank said made a face and stood up ''am sorry but....", Tessy wanted to say something but stopped ''tessy! that guy wants to ruin us, don't let that happen Tessy! give me that complementary card", Frank said stretching forth his hand.

''I can't take this anymore, I can't be with someone that isn't ready for marriage yet, someone that don't value me for anything, just ordinary engagement ring am asking for, he is finding it difficult to give to me, don't he know women don't have time? let me just leave him so he could do whatever pleases him am tired of being in a relationship where the man can't marry me, am tired", Tessy muttered, packing her stuffs, she hissed immediately Frank walked in ''babe wat is happening here? Frank asked but got no response ''tessy wat is going on here", he repeated and held tessy's hand ''let go of my hand! Frank am leaving u for good, u don't even know wat u want! u want to be with me but yet u don't want to marry me! u are such a confused soul, am leaving u for good and don't u dare to stop me", Tessy angrily said still packing her things ''babe calm down! wat is it? why do u want to leave me? Frank asked and held her two hand ''frank I said u should let go of my hand?Tessy shouted and pushed him away ''tessy pls don't leave me I beg u, if u leave me I don't know wat will happen to me! I love u too much and can't do without u! I don't know wat the problem may be but I assure u am going to solve it", Frank said and hugged her ''frank u are very wicked! I have been with u for six whole years, six yrs but yet no engagement ring and u said u love me and want to spend the rest of ur life with me? all my mates are already in their husbands house with children and am here washing plates for a man I have been with for six yrs, now let me shock u! do u know my little kid sister Chichi just got married? why me that is ten times older than her is still with a man that hasn't marry me, Frank am sick and tired, allow me to go in peace", Tessy said with tears dropping down her eyes ''oh is all about the engagement ring? Frank asked ''yes", Tessy shouted ''ok no prob I will do the needful, I will engage u, then after that, I will see ur people for introduction and the next thing follows, Tessy! I love u so much and want to spend the rest of my life with u the mother of my unborn babies", Frank said and kissed her lightly on the lips ''so when are u engaging me? Tessy asked smiling ''expect it tomorrow, and after the engagement I will take u out where we could celebrate", Frank said smiling ''thank u! I love u so much Frank and can't do without u", Tessy said and hugged him.
.
Tessy was about driving into the compound when she sighted a car following her, she stopped and came down from the car walking to the other car following her, the person driving the car opened it and came down ''oh u again? are u stalking me? Tessy asked while Ken smiled ''am not stalking u angel! why don't u want to give me a listening ear? Ken said ''listening ear for wat? pls Mr one leg, this is my fiance house and he won't take it lightly with u if he catches u here! so quietly leave this place", Tessy angrily said and hissed ''oh u have a fiance? am so sorry I was thinking u were still single, the first day I saw u I liked u and I was thinking to get close to u but too bad u have a fiance, anyway no prob let me be on my way just take good care of urself pretty", Ken said and was about walking away when the gate opened reviewing Frank, immediately Frank saw Ken, frank buried his face on the ground ''wait wait wait! is he ur fiance? Ken asked Tessy who nodded slowly wondering wat the problem could be ''do u two know each other? Tessy asked ''this girl u don't seem to amaze me, u mean to tell me he is ur fiance", Ken asked again looking at Frank in a disgusting way ''yes he is my fiance wat is it? Frank wat is going on here? can someone talk to me", Tessy said confusedly ''do u know who this man here is?Ken asked and immediately Frank raised up his head and signal Ken not to say anything.

The ray of the morning sun that had centred in the room, and now reflecting in his eye, woke him from his sleep. He stood up to check the calendar and discovered it was February 14. " It's Valentine's Day! " He exclaimed, " Jane must be waiting." Immediately, he dashed to his wardrobe, picked an outfit and made his way into the toilet. Minutes later, He came out in a dashing outfit of white sleeve and blue jeans. " Time to ride. Here l come, Jane" He said, sprouting out a rope from his palm; catching a hold against a rigid stand, and throwing hiself (out the window) to a far distance in the mid air. " Woohoo!" He whistled as he slung away.


Peter had been living in New York since his childhood with his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. Unluckily for him, he lost his Uncle (Ben) five years back, and Aunt May had to take charge of the responsibility of sending him to school and catering his needs. Being a enthusiastic science student, Peter dedicated all his time and efforts to lab works, making out something each time, until he came in contact with a radioactive spider that forever changed his life; reforming him and giving him super abilities; and backing him to become the city foremost hero. Spider Man.


With his new abilities, Peter saved his city on various occasions from thefts, fire incidents, fought away villians and put his Uncle's killer to justice. But would the city ever be free from scourge? Was Valentine's Day an exception?

Chapter 9

“Antony!” Arabella called in excitement as she goes to hug him
“Whoa! I never knew traveling can bring hugs like this” Antony say as he smiled and enjoy the hug
Arabella breaks the hug
“Big bro, do you expect me not to miss you? I have not seen you for a year” Arabella said
“You don’t visit that’s why, my house is just few miles away from here” Antony said
Antony exchange greetings with everyone before he sat close to Zoe and his father.
“How was the journey?” Mr. Wilfred asked
“It was fine, the meeting was successful” Antony reply
Antony look at Zoe who is whispering to Charvi.
“Okay, the family meeting will begin now” Mr. Wilfred announced
Zoe breath in relieve as she and Charvi stand up. Antony draws Zoe’s chair back so she can exit probably (he was sitting during this process).
“Thank you” Zoe told him quietly
He smiled at her.
“Zoe and I will be in the bedroom” Charvi said.
“Okay” Mrs. Wilfred replied and the two girls exit.
“What do you mean by ‘am getting married?' ”Arabella asked surprise
“You have one month to stay with him and get to know each other before getting married and also the marriage date have not been picked” Mr. Wilfred explain
“And is next month” Her mom said sadly
“Next month?! One month?!” She asked in surprise tone
“Next month is just next tomorrow” She said in total disbelief
“Dad why?” She asked
“His family’s company is the richest, biggest and he is the first child. So I am doing you a favor by giving you out to the wealthiest man” Mr. Wilfred replied
“Can I see a picture of him?” Arabella gathered courage and asked
“No pic. The family hardly get photographed because of their strong security” Mr. Wilfred explained
“Am marrying a stranger” she stated flatly
“He is coming next month to pick you, he lives in Chicago and you also live there” Anthony informed her with a smile
“Bro talk to dad, please” she pleased
“Sorry, I already tried” he replied
“Mom?”
“He won’t listen” Mrs. Wilfred replied crying too as she hugs and comfort her Arabella
‘no one can stop dad when its money matter' Arabella said in her thought
