Danielle and Gabrielle took all the things they used for the matriculation to her sister's car. Danielle accompanied her sister to her lodge. They took the narrow rough path that led to Bangkok lodge. The road was really bad, and Danielle was quite unhappy that her sister had to go through that rough path every day. Danielle halted when they got to the gate of the lodge. She spent four years in the university, but she had not stepped foot in the lodge. She frowned as she kept looking around. Gabrielle urged her to come with her. She walked slowly behind her. They walked into the entrance that connected all the rooms in the Bangkok lodge. Gabrielle lived in room five. While she was looking into her handbag in search of her bunch of keys, Danielle seized the opportunity to tour around the lodge. She was not satisfied with what she saw. Bangkok lodge was a totally amoral lodge. Students often said that the occupants of the lodge liked to 'bang' and 'kok'. They believed the name of

"Emmanco 'P'! Emmanco 'P'!" All the occupants of Bangkok lodge chanted as he shut the door. Gabrielle realized she had to be diplomatic in dealing with Emma as none of the occupants was ready to come to her rescue. The caretaker's wife came outside, her face contorted with rage and fear. She knew Emma very well and what he was capable of doing. He was a very dangerous guy. Fear gripped Gabrielle, she remained on the chair with her gaze fixed on the stranger who had taken charge of her bed. "I'm not an electrician," Emma began. "My name is Emmanuel Paul, but my friends call me Emmanco P, the 'P' stands for Papa. I am the father of this lodge, the General Overseer. Na me dey enter the path of any girl wey enter this lodge first. Na because say I never cross ya path na im make all men just pipe low. Person don enter ya room? Emma asked. Gabrielle kept mute and continued staring at him. "You see that jubilation wey dey go on for outside? Na because I don enter, road don clear

The twenty-five-year-old Brian Moses, popularly known as Mangasi is the only son of a widow. He has three sisters. His father died when his mother gave birth to his youngest sister. Coming from a very poor background, Brian had no formal education. He quit school and went into building houses so he could support his family and pay his sisters' school fees. He was the baddest boy in town. He can fight and defeat any who throws taunts at him. Students who knew him very well were scared of him. Just like some students like football, basketball, volleyball, lawn tennis and different kinds of games. Manga liked to fight and watch people that are fighting. He never hesitated to run to the rescue of young girls and save them from bullies. Brian hates oppressors of the innocent and would always make his voice heard. He had no girlfriend because he did not believe in love. He thought love is the language of lazy men. He engaged the services of hawkers whenever he wanted to feel like a

Gabrielle climbed her bed after zipping herself up in a comfy nightgown. She drew her duvet up to her chest. Brian continued staring into space. Plotting how to get her out of the lodge tomorrow. "Please, leave the lights on, I hate darkness," Gabrielle said. There was no response from Brian. He doesn't sleep with the light on. Gabrielle relaxed her head on her pillow and soon hit the sack. Brian took one of her pillows and lay on the floor with his face up. He slept off too and began to snore. The noise could not stop Gabrielle from sleeping because she did not sleep well last night. Gabrielle woke up in the morning and was surprised he lay on the floor without his shirt. The night was miserably cold. A cold chill crept up her spine, raising the hair on the back of her neck. Gabrielle sat on her bed and stared at him with empathy. "Brian...Brian... Wake up, it's morning already," Gabrielle called. "I have been awake. Gabby you need to bathe now. I need to be at one of our bui

Gabrielle stood up and walked out of the eatery. Brian followed her. "Gabby, you need to trust me, would you?" Brian asked. Gabrielle shook her head. "He used my money and rewarded me with a bodyguard. I'm going there now!" Gabrielle tried to go, Brian laughed and pulled her back. "Listen, Gabby, you must call your sister tomorrow and tell her everything. Come with me," he said. "To where?" Gabrielle asked. "My house, to change my clothes. You said I'm smelling awhile ago." Gabrielle looked around and hesitated. "Go, I'll wait here." Gabrielle walked back to the eatery and sat down. Brian shrugged his shoulders and began to walk in the direction of his house. Gabrielle came out and ran after him. He stood still and waited when he saw her coming. Gabrielle was expecting him to ask why she changed her mind. He never did. "I saw one of my lodge mates." "Oh, okay." They walked silently through a lonely path and got to his house. It was an old building. The building had
