Joe couldn't believe what he just saw, 'if I am a seer, does that mean I just saw my future?' he retorted with fear rustling down his spine.

Now that Joe has discovered who he is, his joy was short-lived with immediate effect, 'i am going to be broke soon,' he retorted. 

He glared at his room for a while thinking of how pathetic this world could be. He brings out his phone gently to look at his balance, 'ten million dollars,' he retorted with a sad gaze.

He knew the ten million dollars would soon be gone. Everything continued looking like a dream to him, but unfortunately that was his reality.

'How pathetic could this world be?' Joe's memory flashed to the early hours of the day. He remembered how happy he was earlier with the hope of being a millionaire forever.

Joe remembered what happened few minutes back, he couldn't just believe how his eye vibrated, 'so this is what seers go through,' he retorted sadly. 

He remembered the flashes he saw, 'it is all over now,' he retorted with an heavy mind. He stared at his bed and fall on it.

After a while, Joe was swept off by an alluring sleep. He couldn't banter with it, he embraced it and get engulfed in it. 

The hours of the night pass by gently, as the hours pass by, the closer Joe gets to his vision being fulfilled. 

The surrounding cock in the neighbourhood crew on top of their voice. The birds chirp as the sun brightens from the sky.

Joe was still fast asleep and he couldn't just get enough of the sleep. Being engraved in his sleepy posture, the brightness of the day hits his face sharply.

Joe couldn't hold it within, 'ooooo….' Joe murmured and reluctantly raise his head from his little bed. He opened his eye gently to behold the brightness of the day.

He yawned heavily and have to stand from his bed. As soon as he stand up, what he had seen earlier hit his core. 

He felt like going back to sleep immediately, but he controlled himself and mustered some courage to face the day.

No one would have seen what Joe saw and still go to work. He saw that the truck that was given to him was stolen and the money he made…..

Joe walked gently into the bathroom to have a shower, his mind couldn't just get past what he saw, but what will he do? He can't just tuck his head in his shirt. He has to face the reality of what is coming.

After washing his body, he walked out of the bathroom gently and liaised some cream on his body thoroughly.

After he had properly liaised the cream, he picked a shirt for himself. In no time, he dashed out of his house just like he would do on a normal day.

After he had walked the distance he should, he got to his store, but something terrible has happened. The truck he parked there yesterday was no longer there according to his vision.

He stared at the position he had placed the truck for a very long time, his countenance fell, he shook his head and walked into the store. 

On entering the store, Joe lost his balance and he almost fall to the ground. He grabbed an object near to him to balance himself. 

'Hmm,' he sighed heavily. After staying in the store for some hours, no body came buy to 

 buy a single thing from him.

He didn't have a sale at all for the day just as he had seen in his vision. He tucked his head in his shirt and envisaged for a better day.

After a while, a white car stopped in front of his store just as he had seen in his vision, but this time, Joe didn't pay attention to the car.

He is buried within the situation he found himself. 

"Hey there!" An audible voice pierced through Joe's ear. 

Joe jumped up from where he is seated and tried running off.

"Stop there," a guy emptied with a gun pointed at Joe.

 

Joe is scared to death, because that's the same thing he saw in his vision. He glared at the guys.

The guys weren't that hefty, but they had a gun. Joe is in a very tight spot at the moment. Joe prayed for a miracle in the instant.

"Where is your phone!" One of the guys fired at him.

Joe shook, even to his bone marrow, 'this is it,' he said, stretching his hand to give them.

"Don't be foolish boy!" One of them said and lashed his head with his hand lightly, "open it!" He ordered firmly as he changed his countenance.

"Ye… ye… yes sir," he said. He couldn't sound straight anymore, his voice kept trembling with fear rustling all over him.

Joe quickly draw the pattern on his phone and unlocked it. The phone was trembling on his hand.

"I have unlocked it sir," he said with fear all over his voice.

"Good boy, now open your bank app and transfer all the money you have in there. Don't try to play smart!" one the boys said with a calm voice. He pointed the gun at him immediately and removed it's safety.

Joe gulped some saliva, he knew his life is at stake at this point. To save his life, he transferred all the money he had to them.

As soon as he finished the transfer, "bow your head to the ground," one of the guys fired at him.

Joe bowed his head to the ground trembling terribly. The boys dashed into the car and drove off.

'it is done,' Joe retorted. He didn't know if he shout shout or cry. Mixed feelings kept him trapped.

He couldn't say a word out of his lips, all he could do is just to sigh. 

He stand from where he laid and close the door to his store. He walked home directly and laid on his bed, reminiscing what had just happened to him.

After a while, Joe felt a wave on his eye. His inner eyes were opened immediately and he began to see some flashes.

This time, Joe saw his ex fall to the ground and died at the spot.

Joe couldn't believe what he saw, he brought out his phone and checked the date he saw in his vision, 'it's Emily's birthday' he retorted while his phone trembled in his hand.
