Synopsis

The story unravelled a young man in his early twenties. From work he boarded a bus enroute from Surulere to Aguda. As the journey progressed, he was in thoughts regarding how he would take care of his domestic needs that weekend. He reached home only to be met with the deteriorating situation at home. That weekend, there was a heavy downpour and as a result, his foam was drenched in the rain due to a leaking roof. Justice, nonetheless, went to call his best friend and neighbour to help him wriggle out the water but was directed to the chairman's house where his friend was and that was where he met the woman who changed his life.

Chapter one
The bus drove down the streets of Aguda in full speed. The shouts of the commuters brought back his senses. He sighed derogatorily because his thoughts were being disturbed. ‘Driver, why are you in so much a hurry?’ One of the commuters asked, tapping the driver at the shoulder as he was sitting directly behind the driver. ‘Haven’t you come across the slogan that says; there is no hurry in life? I beg you in the name of God; I’m not ready to die yet!’ The driver remained adamant and continued his driving. In a bid to remove his attention from the waggling commuters, he pushed his face out from his side of the window and blotted with his fingers on his nose as support. ‘This driver is everything but civilized. See the way he is even behaving rudely as if he is only carrying animals here instead of human beings,’ another commuter retorted. Instantly, there was uproar from the rest of the commuters as each was trying his or her best to be heard simultaneously. Justice, on the

Chapter two
‘Wow! That was close. If mother had demanded for money from me, I would have been in for it,’ he smiled as he had gotten a positive response for his worries. ‘JT, your food is served,’ his mother called. He walked towards the table, sat down and prayed before savouring the food. He smiled at each spoon he put into his mouth and relished the food that had so much great taste. He praised his mother’s cooking prowess. The birds were chirping in the neighbourhood. From one mango tree to another they made their nests. They hopped on top of all the trees from a mango tree to an orange tree and then to the hibiscus flower in front of Justice’s house. They tended to the flower with their constant hopping as Justice would do during his leisure. Apart from designing buildings as an architect, he also had another thing that turns him on, a hobby he wouldn’t dare let go even if he wanted; tending to the flowers. He lazily opened his eyes as the morning ushered in a new dawn. He made to

Chapter three
He knocked and there was no answer. He knocked persistently. ‘O boy, let it not be that I’m a bit late,’ he thought. Just at that instance, he could see a security man advancing towards him. ‘Who is there?’ The guard asked. ‘JT,’ he answered. ‘Whom do you wish to see?’ He asked. ‘Please, I want to meet with Prince.’ ‘Prince?’ The guard asked in confusion. ‘JT on realizing that he could not be granted entrance rephrased his statement. ‘I mean, I want to meet with the chairman.’ He knew that Prince would definitely be with the chairman. The security man opened the gate and ushered him in. JT walked towards the main building and never imagined that looking at the building from the outside, one would bet that the exterior is just as good as the interior. But on the contrary, the interior seemed much more sophisticated than the exterior itself. This artistic irony seemed to impress him more. The flowers! Yes, the flowers caught his attention. There were beautiful l

Chapter four
Immediately, he saw an oncoming bus, the conductor of the bus was calling out to passengers going to the Island. He hailed the conductor and the bus stopped. He was anticipating going to the rear as usual, when the conductor gesticulated that he should sit in the front seat since no passenger was there. He agitated but eventually gave in. He opened the front door to enter and while he was about to sit on the passenger’s seat, he noticed in front of the bus just directly facing the driver, the picture of Jesus Christ with a halo on it. He sat down and for some moments, was captured by what he felt was the presence of God. He sat still and prayed within him again for the second time that God should make his day auspicious. He didn’t want any inauspicious moments in his life again. He dozed off in no distant time and scenes in his life were just flashing before him kaleidoscopically. He opened his eyes to the clean mass of water. He realized he had reached the Island and sprouting f

Chapter five
He thought, ‘what drastic change of emotions.’ ‘JT, you have brought back my glory.’ I’ve actually waited for this break all through my life. Yes, I’ve made it in life. I have money, fame and prestige but I wouldn’t be happier than now. Thank you my dear.’ JT was surprised and elated the same time. He had never been more informal with his boss than this. ‘Are you here?’ He asked. He shook his head and answered. ‘Yes sir, I’m here it’s just that I’m short of words, I mean words seem to elude me.’ ‘My boy, finally we’ve gotten the contract; the long awaited contract to build the Miami tunnel. And as a matter of fact, the deal would not be concluded without you flying down there and giving the presentation yourself.’ ‘Wow! Wow!’ he jumped and fell on his knees and thanked God who had made it happen. He could see a lot of skirts and trousers moving up and down. There seemed to be seriousness in every corner. He removed the

Chapter six
She carried her in her arms and kept her in her shoulder as she walked in to lay her down. ‘Madam, ma’am,’ A voice was calling out to her and a hand was trying to wake her up. ‘Uhh,’ she started. ‘Well, I’m sorry ma’am you h’d better wake up otherwise you would miss your flight,’ the air hostess said. ‘Thank you,’ she said as she adjusted her sun-shade and rose to move. ‘You are welcome,’ the voice said.The queue was almost disappearing by the time she reached. She was almost the last person to be checked. ‘How long had she been sleeping in that reception hall?’ She asked herself.She went straight to the security officials checking passengers and their luggage.All her life she had never experienced this.She could not allow herself to come up with an answer regarding the reason behind her sleep this afternoon. She prayed that today should be auspicious given the fact that she was going to fly in the next couple of minutes.When the security official was through with his sc

Chapter seven
However, as they continued their journey, his companion was always taking some calls. None of those calls lasted for fifty seconds each. JT wondered whether it wasn’t just a coincidence. He knew right then that he had a lot to learn from these people. Right before them was the tallest building he had ever set his eyes on. He whistled and said that it was an architectural masterpiece. He brought out his mobile phone and took a picture of the building. He could share knowledge and improve on his own designs, he thought. Mr. Cooper on the other hand only nodded his head. He led the way for him as they entered a lift. The lift stopped them on the twenty-second floor. As they approached the office of the Managing Director, Justice could see a silhouette from the window shade. The silhouette seemed to be holding a stick in his hand and putting it into his mouth. He thought that the person must be smoking. The door opened even before Mr. Cooper could touch it. Right before them was

‘Kleptomania is a mental condition, a disease that causes a strong desire to steal things, often with no wish or intention to possess the things stolen.’ ‘This is serious,’ exclaimed JT. ‘How is the father of this girl protecting her?’ ‘In the light of the law, she’s been protected since her father is a justice. He makes sure that she is never prosecuted.’ ‘Why then doesn’t he, kind of restrict her movement?’ He asked. ‘He wants her to live a normal life hoping that one day nature would reverse what it had done on her.’ ‘Well, I hope so too.’ ‘Now to your second question…I happen to be a lawyer by profession and I work as a team with two or three other lawyers for the company. Secondly, I watched you enter the mall in a confused state and that was how I figured out your problem. And to your third question, let’s just say that I decided to put my emotions under control.’ ‘You mentioned a company. Which company are you talking about?’ ‘I’m talking about the same company for whi

‘I just finished speaking with you now; there must be some mistake somewhere.’ ‘Are you sure you’re okay?’ he touched her fore-head to dictate any hotness on her head. ‘Stop it.’ She shouted and subsequently removed his hand. ‘If you weren’t the person I’ve been talking with then who could that be?’ He yelled. ‘Well, my dear JT it may surprise you to know that Ku Klux Klan dwells in the world of illusions.’ She said puckering her face. ‘What in God’s name are you saying?’ He asked in bewilderment. ‘Cornerstone constructions are actually the cornerstone of this cult known as Ku Klux Klan. Heard about it before?’ she asked. ‘Yes I’ve come across it in a book. Does it exist?’ ‘You can ask that again.’ She said. ‘What just happened to you is one of their tricks. They want to trick you into giving away your presentation by using me. You’ve got to thank God that I was here in time to save your butts otherwise you would have been in for it.’ ‘I’m speechless.

Chapter ten
‘You’re welcome,’ she said. She reversed her car and viewed the happy moments of loved ones and also shared in their happiness. When it was evident that she h’d had enough, she drove off. ‘My son, welcome back,’ his mother uttered. She hugged him for a very long time like a lost child. ‘Tessy, you are going to suffocate the boy,’ his father said. ‘Yes, let me suffocate him I’ve missed my boy so much.’ She said amidst tears and sobs. He wound his hands around her and took her in. His father only followed them and shook his head as he joined them. ‘Women, when will they ever change and understand the life we are living?’ He chuckled. ‘Justice you are indeed a great person. Who knows? You must have come from a lineage of great people.’ The M.D said. ‘Well sir, I think the credit goes to God almighty for bestowing me with such wisdom.’ ‘You have made my day my boy and this call for celebration.’ He came close to JT and placed his hands on his shoulder and led him to the recepti
