She was breathing heavily and looked like she was ready to devour any one that came her way. So that wasn't it, this is how I would be beaten up mercilessly by my fellow girl for something I knew nothing about. I thought of my parents, they would be thinking their daughter is safe in the hostel, my dad would be very disappointed if he ever finds out I got entangled in this kind of shit.I thought of Daniel, does he even know what he had actually gotten me into, if not something worse I I might as well get scar that might never leave my body. What kind of business did he have to do with these dangerous looking men. didn't actually want to think or imagine that Daniel was actually a bad guy or worked for bad guys, I trusted him much and dreaded the idea of him engaging in any fraudulent activities.Throwing away his cigarette he whispered to the scary looking girl and was about to leave when I shouted behind him."How has all this got to do with me, and how do you know hurting me

I looked away as he continued staring at me unblinking. I was kind of relieved that Daniel had managed to do something even if it was not complete yet at least I had hope of leaving this miserable place soon. I pray nothing would ever make me find myself in this kind of place and condition again.Coming close to me held me on my cheek where I had been hit severally and I winced backing away."Aww, what have they done to you, poor thing" He said caressing my cheeks which infuriated me."Get away from me" I said almost in a whisper, too tired to talk. He withdrew his hand immediately bringing out a cigarette from his pocket lighting it with a lighter.The smell from the flicker's of smoke filled the air. It almost choked me as I started to cough.

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.
