CHIOMA THE VILLAGE GIRL
EPISODE 10
I was left with my own taught, Cindy was somehow right but I don’t care because am following my heart….
That same day I called Chioma ten good times but she wasn’t picking my calls. I still wanted to visit but I just decided not to.. Mama also changed her attitude as she never allowed me or Emeka to go out .
The next day was a Monday but I didn’t go to school because I was still recovering. After the school hours, my house was crowded with almond school of science {A-S} students mostly from my class ss2 as they came to visit me after Emeka told them what happened . I noticed Chioma wasn’t with them maybe probably she didn’t want to see me. But after my school mates left, I asked Emeka about Chioma and he told me she didn’t even come to school. At this point I made up my mind to go see her but how is that possible when grand ma is at home. I need to device a way of leaving this compound without being noticed .I guess I need my partner in crime’s help emeka.
‘’Emeka’’ I called out gently while I went to meet him at the backyard
‘’Emeka’’
‘’Jake how far?”
‘’guy pls I need your help’’
‘’how ??’’
‘’guy abeg I wan go chioma house but mama is around and she wont allow me to go out’’
‘’so wetin you want make I do’’
‘’how will I leave without mama noticing?’’
‘’I can help you oo but you will pay’’
‘’haba!! Ok how much’’
‘’just your michael kors wrist watch’’
That was my best wrist watch he asked for, I had no choice than to agree.
‘’okk no problem’’
‘’come and give me the watch while I play my role’’
We went inside while I gave him the watch my mum gave me as birthday gift when she went to Dubai ..
Emeka went to met mama in her room==
‘’mama Jakes attention is needed in school’’
‘’how? Kwanu’’ mama asked
‘’mama shey you know that our exams is in three weeks time and all students need to fill their exam data so they can send it to our head quarter for standard verification and vividism in order not to allow prior error and today is the dead line and jake …..’’
‘’ozugo ozugo[its enough]’’ mama shouted
‘’mama its not enough oo jake needs to be in school now so he won’t fail’’
‘’asim ozugo jake bia jewe mana nata kwa osiso, asho m inu akuko’[you can go now but come back on time , I don’t want to hear stories]’’
‘’no problem mama’’ I said and dashed out of the house as emeka followed me.
‘’guy you sabi ooo, guy you be lion’’
‘’ forget that one, na my work I do’’
‘’bad guy thanks anyway you are a brother’’
‘’no p just have fun but don’t stay long and pls be very careful’’
‘’I will’’ I said and left the compound
About fifteen minutes later I arrived Chioma’s compound but I was outside the compound. I looked into the compound but it was deserted, I wanted to knock but something stopped me as I pushed the gate and entered.
I got to the entrance of their building and knocked but no one responded, my heart beat became furious. I knocked again still there wasn’t any answer I was about turning back to leave when I heard.
‘’what are you doing here’’
I turned back to see Amaka, Chioma’s sister
‘’(stammering) good afternoon, I came to see Chioma’’
‘’to cause another trouble right, Jake or what ever they call you get out of this compound before the count of 2’’
‘’aunty amaka’’ I said with a pity face.
‘’who is your aunty , never not to a heartless man’s son’’
‘’I know what my dad did wasn’t right but pls forgive him, I really need to see Chioma thank God I survived’’
She looked at me in an evil manner and hissed before going inside the house . I turned back and was using my leg to arrange sand particles hoping to see my beautiful Chioma when suddenly.
WATER SPLASH
‘’Jesus’’ I shouted as detergent water poured on me.
‘’useless boy so you still came here to cause us more pain’’ a voice said in tears as I recognised it to be Chioma’s own.
‘’my eye, my eyes’’ I cried out in pain………
