picking up a cigarette from his breast pocket he pulled it out for the other guy to light and he did stepping back again.He steadied his gaze on me for a while without saying any word. I looked at each of their faces searchingly and then removed my eyes. Suddenly he began to laugh widely clapping his hands. This man was really a psychopath, I thought looking down at my feet. The other man came towards me and bent down loosing the right rope that was tied to my ankle and my legs were free, I had been bound both hands leg's for almost four days. I looked at him wide eyed as he did that, does that mean I would soon be leaving. By then the psycho man had stopped laughing and say leaned over the wall.He proceeded to my hands loosing them slowly and my hands were free. The first thing I did when he let loose of my hands wat to scratch my body that had been itching me. Even though he loosened my hands and feet and it looked like something good had happened I still expected the wors

I cleaned up the tears that continued rolling from my cheek, I didn't Know why it was always very easy for me to break down and cry, it made me angry sometimes as I always did that even if it's any little thing that occured."Okay I made something earlier, I...I don't know if you would like it"he said stammering."I've not eaten for few days for Christ sake, and you think I would still have choices" I replied weakly as I managed to talk. It was so warm in here unlike the horrible room which was always on extreme weather condition, if it was cold it would be too cold and if it was hot it would be just too hot. I wondered where they had dumped and how how Daniel had got hold of me. The last thing I remembered before now was being carried down the step and the memory was just so blur.He left the room for the kitchen without saying any other word or trying to apologise. My body had been well treated and i had been changed into a neat pink dress not the other stinking one I had been wea

Standing up, he went towards the fridge to get the glass of water. Cool breeze started to blow and then it became more intense and the weather also started to change like it was going to rain. After drinking the water the head ache seems to subside. Just as I though, it began to rain heavily after some minutes with loud thunder and lightening, the thunder roared like an angry mighty king who was pouring his wrath on his people. When I was little I always thought the sound of thunder was God roaring angrily from heaven upon the earth because of the sins of the world.The weather was extremely cold now and I had Daniel join me on the bed. I rested my head on his chest as we lay down together, and all the cold were gone."Daniel? I called out after some minutes. I was tired but still couldn't fall asleep."Yes? He replied rubbing my shoulder."I wanted to know if you had fallen asleep" I said."I am fully awake and not feeling sleepy a bit" He replied.I strained my ears a little to

"Wow, are u serious right now? Someone sent me a message with your own number, and you said you are very sure that you didn't go out or was not with anyone that day except your friend, the person even texted me more than once, who else could it be the? Or was it a done by a mystic force? I said eyeing him. They could have been friends for years, but you never can tell what people are capable of doing. I didn't know why I strongly believed that she might have an hand in it immediately he told me she had stopped by that day. And moreover my instinct never fails me, it was just far from jealousy."I will think about it very well and , it's just so confusing, I mean, we've been friends for many years and I know her and things she's capable of doing, but this is all so confusing" he said rubbing his forehead again like he always does when he's worried."You'd better think about it fast, because it just got into my head now, I really thought you were the one" I said"Alright, please can

Dialling my auntie's number to call her, she picked up immediately it rang as if she had been on guard expecting the call. It was my dad's elder sister which had never gotten married.Rumours had it that she rejected every suitors that came her way when she was young and not only did she do that, she also said rude words to them before doing that and preferred dating married men. That was a long time ago when marriage was one thing that defined and made a woman complete. During those days women who clocked thirty without getting married were seen as failures in and kindred they hailed from, and it was a taboo to remain in ones father's land at that age. She was a very beautiful lady then and suitors trooped in her father's house daily and no one seemed to be good enough for her.And finally she had never gotten married and was now in her late fifties. To me marriage was important but it was not the most important thing in a person's Life. Being successful and happy with one's self was

"Are you sure you are? You look very exhausted and stressed out to me" I said stretching my hand nearer as he put a little piece of fish and soup on my palm for me to have a taste."Really, it's became of what happened lately, I was worried sick, how would I ever forgive myself if peradventure, something very bad had happened to you, you don't know how relived and glad I am" He said taking my hand and squeezing it sofly. After that he went over to the other cupboard bringing out a medium sized pot from there and placing it on the gas cooker. "How's the soup? He asked hands akimbo."Perfect!" I said nodding my head, wondering how he was able to cook so well."Good, so it didn't turn out to be a disaster like the last one, sometimes my food tastes better when I'm unsettled" he said."It's okay I'm here now and I am fine, why are you still unsettled when I am here, anyways if it makes the food taste good, it's not that bad" I said shrugging. He lightly pouring a bowl of water into th

"As time went, I met many people who did the same work with me, and sometimes, they brought the work as in the idea and we do it and share the money later. So this time I was the one handling the stuff for them and the client delayed in the payment so the man thought I had taken his share of the money, I tried to let him know the client hasn't paid but he would not hear, that was what brought about all this" He said."Oh my God! now I get" I said climbing down from the bed pacing up and down the room. So that was why he had some weird looking guys as friends. I remembered exactly how a boy was killed because of this kind of stuff. After they thought he had taken all the money to himself, or maybe he had probably taken it, a group of boys were sent to beat and behead him. He was brutally killed and after that they dumped his body in a bush. This incident had happened just last year around the area I lived and had spread like wild fire. And since then I saw the said Yahoo guys as crue

There was tension in the air as got into the room. I didn't know if it was only me that noticed it because she seemed to be freely as I got into the room.There was this strange look in her eyes as she sighted me, maybe she didn't expect me to recover quickly or so, that was if she actually has a hand in it, which I strongly believed without doubt."Hii" She said beaming with smiles. She was putting on a yellow dress and really looked pretty in it. She was actually a beautiful lady no doubt. And the dress she was hearing, my God, the way it exposed her cleavage, it was not the dress one should use in visiting just "a friend". "Hey" I muttered sitting down on the couch crossing my leg."I was asking Daniel about you just now, oh my God, what happened to your body!? She exclaimed as soon as she saw the bruises on my body. She acted so shocked and frightened that I was beginning to doubt what I had suggested about her earlier."It was an accident" I replied calmly trying not to make it

"Good evening" I greeted casually taking a seat."Good evening too" He replied clearing his throat."Please go straight to the point, I don't have time" I said crossing my legs."How impatient you have become" He muttered rubbing his forehead like he always does when he was nervous.What he told me really shocked me. He talked about how his phone had been stolen the day he got home and how he had lost my contact. He talked about how he had received it after some weeks and expected my calls or text but never saw them.Then when school had resumed then he had gone back to school. And after some weeks he had expected me to visit him at least even though I never called but he never saw any sign of me.He said that after some months Martha had come to his place unexpectedly and told him that I had an accident and died in the process back at home. I couldn't believe my ears. I didn't believe him at first but then he asked me to call Martha myself and confirm it in his front. He said she had

It has been almost five years now since I had my baby and she was all grown up now. Everything had been moving very fine until she started asking me about her dad. That had happened when I came to pick her from schools. She had asked me why dad never picked her from school, stating that her friends dad always did so. I had assured her that one day, her dad would come back from were he had traveled to and wouldn't go leave her again, and that seemed to work as she stopped disturbing me about it.She was four years and five months old now but talked and reasoned like an adult sometimes, it really marveled me and people always says that she looked bigger than her age.I could say I was a successful woman now as I owned five big and well known eateries in five different states which I named after me and had some less privileged children studying on scholarship in different schools in my name. Money wasn't a problem to me anymore and I used my money to do good to people, especially the poor

since I opened the mini eatery, the vegetables soup one food that was well patronized and sometimes it there was always shortages. That was until I started cooking more of it than other dishes. There was a special way cooked the vegetables soup. I learnt it from Daniel and I realized that people really loved it. I usually add fresh paper and a little strong fresh tomatoes which gave it a wonderful colour."You're welcome, I really enjoyed it" He replied smiling."You're making me blush now, I'm really glad everyone loves the soup, including you" I said smiling. He nodded and was about leaving when he turned back."Emm...if you don't mind, there's an upcoming food competition I heard a friend talking about. It's being sponsored big companies. The winners of the competition are being awarded big cash prizes and other rewards. I can get a ticket for you if you don't mind" He said studying my face."Emm...i'm interested sir, I'd like to know more about it" I replied nervously. "I rem

"Someone asked for a plate of vegetables soup and eba" Muna's sister said, moving from the counter to where I sat dishing out some food. She had started working with me some weeks ago."Alright Lizzy, I heard" I said handing the plate of food over to her.Although she was hardworking and very fast, since she started working some people complained that she had no manners and didn't know how to politely to people . I told her about it and she seemed to have improved.As a result of the character of some people that came around to buy food sometimes, I didn't like having blossom around at the shop and also no drink containing alcohol were sold at the shop.As I was about dishing another food out, my phone began to ring. The caller had no name as the number was not saved in my phone and I picked it up anyway, placing it on my ears and with the assistant of my shoulders as I continued with what I was doing."Hello? I said handing out the food to Lizzy who stood impatiently waiting. She took

Finally after four months and some weeks I entered into labour. It was on a weekend and fortunately Anabelle was around. I was immediately rushed to the hospital where I delivered a baby girl.Going into labour and delivering was really the one thing I dreaded most. I had told a nurse about that and how I feared that I might not survive it and she had assured me that I could bear it and after all the pains I would go through the joy of seeing the child would take them all away.That was really what had happened. At a time I thought I might even die as I couldn't bear the pain anymore but when I saw the face of the child, my child, the pain vanished and I became unconscious. Apart from the pains I pass through while pushing, there was no complications.I didn't know I had passed out until I woke up. I had been cleaned up now and I felt better. The baby was laid on my arms and it was a girl. She was so beautiful and looked so much like Daniel.Anabelle had come to see me that morn

It was a beautiful weekend. Anabelle had decided to accompany me to the boutique to buy some clothes and other things I needed. After bathing and dressing up we left for the boutique."This boutique sells good clothes at affordable price, not like those ones that put too much profit on their dresses" Anabelle said as we entered the boutique.It was filled with different people who had also come to buy clothes or hand bags. After getting some clothes a nightie and some other stuffs I needed we paid for it and left for the house. Anabelle also got herself some clothes, ripped jeans and some gowns.There was traffic on the road and we stayed in the bus longer than we were supposed to. I almost vomited there as the smell of the bus made me feel like throwing up but I held myself. Finally we were home. Anabelle wanted to make fried rice so I assisted her in cutting the carrots and cabbages as she washed and boiled the chicken we were going to cook it with."Do you like it boiled or fried"

I got to the park the next day at around nine o'clock Am in the morning as soon as I alighted from the bus, I called Anabelle immediately to inform her that I had gotten there and she told me she'd come and pick me right away and I say at a seat in the park waiting.It was beautiful here and the road was very busy with passersby going there various business.My eyes caught a pregnant woman along the road with a young man beside her holding her, which was obviously her husband. I watched as He held her protectively on her shoulders as they crossed the road.I didn't know when a tear dropped from my eyes to my cheek. I cleaned it angrily. I didn't know why I was becoming too emotional these days and could cry at any slighted thing. I looked down at my stomach, rubbing it gently and forcing myself not to break down and cry. There was no one to hold me like that, no shoulder to cry on right now. I looked at the road again and the couple's were already gone.After waiting for almost half a
