Aka Mummy E
It’s been one hour since Rachael ordered her boys to go over to Alfred and she hasn’t gotten any reply from them. She has looked at her phone countless times waiting for thier calls but she got nothing. Finally her car was fixed.
She hurriedly paid the mechanic and zoomed off. She was so filled with anger that she started shaking her legs non stop. She saw a truck carrying people who were obviously parking out of thier house drive past her but she didn’t take note of who they might be. She drove straight into the compound and packed her car.
She came down and went straight to Alfred’s house. The door was locked. She started hitting hard on the door and screaming at the top of her voice. “Alfred, Alfred”
It took some minutes for her to realize that there was no one in the house and the house was actually empty. Rachael didn’t believe her eyes as she went round and round the house looking as if to confirm if the house was truly empty.
“When I Alfred? Did Alfred run away from his house? Did he run away with his family? So he abandoned her? So he chose his wife and children? So he ran away? No, no, it can’t be.”
These were the thoughts that filled Rachael’s heart. And then she remember the truck that she saw when she was driving into the compound. Could that be Alfred?
Rachael quickly ran to her car and reversed the car. She drove out and tried to pursue the truck. At first she didnt know the direction to take. But she decided to take the first turn. She was so furious and filled with anger. She started talking to herself.
Rachael: oh Alfred, you do not know what you have done. You think you can lie to me decieve me and run away from me. You do not know with whom you are messing with. Pray I don’t catch you today. And then she saw some men sitting at a beer parlour. She slowed her car down and talked with them.
“Good evening sirs. Please did you guys by chance see any truck of people packing pass through this route?”
Madam which time? E don tay?
Rachael: No o, about ten minutes ago. It’s not even up to ten minutes.
“Madam no truck pass here o, maybe na the other road e pass. I never see any motor when we day here so. And we din day this place for more than two hours now.
Rachael: oh, okay sir, thank you.
Rachael quickly reversed her car and drove straight to the junction. It was a three road Junction. She has confirmed that Alfred did not enter one on the roads. So she decided to confirm before going into another street. She saw a shop nearby and decided to ask the lady.
Rachael: Madam good evening, please did you see any truck carrying people that are packing please? Do you by chance know the direction it took?
The woman took a suspicious look at Rachael before answering.
” Madam na who you be and why you day find the truck?”
Rachael knew by this question that the woman probably had an idea where the truck had gone and so she didn’t want to spoil her chances of finding Alfred so she decided to be very smart.
“Oh my sister nothing o. It’s just that the man na my senior brother and I just come for village and they tell me say he just day pack so. Na him i decide to pursue them weather I go see them.
The woman looked at Rachael suspiciously again and ask.
“You say the man’. Na your brother ba!
“Yes ma” Rachael answered.
“Why you nor con call am. Call am na”
Rachael: I don try o, he number day switched off. Abeg if u see where d truck pass, you fit tell me abeg weather I go fit pursue them catch abeg.
The woman looked at Rachael again, and then pointed to the direction of the truck. Rachael was so happy as she greeted the woman and zooms off.
