She laid on the bed while i was still on my seat……..
Me: Seems you are tired
SK: Not really jare…..am not just feeling too well
Me: What happened?
SK: Nothing…don’t worry, its not something you should worry about
Me: You can talk to me now..a problem shared is half solved
SK: Sincerely, i didn’t know how i found myself in this mess
Me: Which Mess? What is it……
SK: We heard that one of our babes was dropped this evening
Me: Dropped?
SK: Killed jhoor..are you this lame
Me: Ahhh…..what happened?
SK: Its one spanner lost jare…we are living a life of fear on a daily basis and it can happen
to any one of us…..
Me: Why don’t you opt out? What led you to this in the first place
SK: Opt out? Its not as easy as you think jare except if they are ready to free you of which
you can be free totally, they will always be coming back to you when you are needed. Why
do you think Mary has to come back even when she already got a baby and should be
thinking of settling down
Me: But out of no way, there will definitely still
be a way..you can run to any other state now and settled down
SK: while my school is still on?
Me: Are you guys students?
SK: yes of course now..I just rounded up my spill over year here in Ekpoma, my parents are
in Lagos, am a microbiologist waiting for NYSC mobilization, other girls are in other
departments, flaky on her own has spilled, splash and i don’t even know what to call the
third one
Me: But how come? Mary didn’t finish from your school now
SK: Yes…she did her diploma here so she has been part of us ever since and never leave our
midst even when she got her admission to LASU
Me: That is serious…but do you truly wish to opt out?
SK: I cant wait..am tired of this life jare…we have treated so many people f–k up that we
are always scared of our lives
Me: Even if everybody is scared, Flaky will never be?
SK: Says who…the girl no get mind at all ooo…na she be the coward among us sef, forget all wetyn he dey do with you oooo
Me: You don’t mean it…..Are you also a lez?
SK: Lez? Ohhhh…we did it in your presence abi? That is just a little of what we engage in,
what do you expect from us, we do runs, kill for politicians and all sort…i just wish i can
end all this madness, i wish God can give me another chance..
“I was stunned when she started crying”
Me: Stop crying SK……Everything will be fine, just believe in God, pray to him, i know he will definitely make a way for you and you will be out of this mess
SK: How long will i continue to pray….have been doing that over the past one year, i don’t
know what will be of my parents if i am killed
Me: Do they know about all this? Your spill over year and all sort
SK: How will they know..if they tell them i live this kind of life they will be stunned, they
don’t even know that i spilled, i do lie to them that they have not cleared us for service
Me: That is serious…but i believe God will make a way for you dear don’t worry…Do you
believe in God?
SK: Yes i do…
Me: Don’t worry, i promise everything will be
alright even if i die
SK: You that is expecting your death is also telling me everything will be alright
Me: Yes because i believe you have a higher chance than me…I believe you will scale
through but can you do me a favour?
SK: What is that?
Me:Can i get across to any member of my family through your phone, at least for them
to know am still alive
SK: Are you cr@zy? What sort of rubbish is that? Are you trying to take our closeness for
granted? You want to call them so that you can tell them it was Mary that kidnapped you,
knowing fully well that Mary is at home so that they can go and arrest her and fish us out..Are you mad?
Me: Am very sorry, i didn’t think about it to
that extent, you know i will never want to hurt you now
SK: Who i be that you won’t want to hurt
Me: I think i like your kind of person, you have a good heart
SK: What makes you think so?
Me: If you don’t have a good heart, we won’t be here right now talking to this length.
SK: If you say so…….
Me: What do you think about me?
SK: I think you are a good person; it was just so unfortunate that you entered our net
Me: Thanks so much…can i give you my mum’s and wife’s numbers to help me get across to
them when am killed, so that they can locate my corpse and give me a befitting burial. You
can lie to them that you got their number on my phone or somewhat?
SK: What if they now asked how i got your number?
Me: You will call them with a new sim now and destroy the sim card immediately you call
them so that they won’t be able to trace you
SK: That’s a better idea and i might be able to do that for you but don’t worry yourself, we already have most of your family members’ numbers
Me: How did you get them?
SK: Have you forgotten that Mary has once been your wife
Me: That is true oooo……
SK: But i have an idea for you if you can be able to cooperate with me
Me: Idea about what?
SK: I can kill you before we kill you officially
Me: Kill me ke? What sort of idea is that?
SK: What i mean is that, i know drugs i can administer on you that will make you
unconscious and totally paralyze you for some
days, i will try to convince babes that you are dead and no need to gun you down already, i
will talk to them to let us dump you in a bush
then you can find your way when you wake up.
The only concern is that you have to promise me that you will never come back to hunt us
down and you have to run away from the eyes of Mary, maybe travel out of the country with
your wife and never come back for a long time. I know if you come to hunt Mary, it will
affect me so i will need your promise that if i should manage to save your life, you must
safe mine too……..You know i have lot at stake than you if i should try and do this for you
Me: If its possible like that, i promise to abide by your rules..i promise you, i will never be in touch again or try to revenge
SK: Okay..No problem, i don’t have the drug here, i will need to go to Warri on Monday to
get it, and come back, i must be careful cos girls must not know about this….
Me: Thanks so much dear…..I don’t know how
to repay you dear….
SK: keep your repayment and save your life oga.
