SPEECHLESSNESS
EPISODE 32
The door flung opened and she QUIVERED, she covered her almost naked body with the blanket, she stared blankly at the door praying inwardly against her thought, Dragon walked into the room.
“Why are you shivering? Master said you should get ready, we have two customers waiting for you, and they paid handsomely, it will be a threesome“ he announced smiling wickedly
Hot tears fell down from her eyes, she wished she would just die and forget her ordeal, she swallowed her breath and went on her knees begging Dragon forgetting she was just wearing pant and bra,
“Dragon please save me, I can’t have another round of sex today, I’m tired, I need some rest, I will die if I sleep with another man not to talk of sleeping with two at the same time”she begged him
“This is the instruction from the boss, they will soon be here, just get ready”he threw at her
“Tell him that I’m sick, I can’t even move my legs“ she begged him crying
“I know what to do” he said and left the room
Thelma was happy he finally understood her plight, she tied a towel round her waist and meant to enter the bathroom when the door opened again,
“Now take this, it’s a pain relief” he said handing her some tablets
“I never complained of having pains, I just said I’m tired”she said bluntly
“You surely need it, calm down and take it, you will thank me later ”
She sighed and turned to enter the bathroom knowing what the drug was for, but he pushed her to the bed
“Now take it or I will force you to do it!” he yelled at her.
She took the drugs from him and swallowed immediately without hesitation, he gave her water to rinse her mouth.
He gave her a wicked smile and left. she cried like never before, she called on her dead father to come to her rescue, getting married was the worst thing she ever did, she has always dreamt of a happily married after but her dreams were shattered after marriage. Her husband was a beast, she has been his s*x slave since he married her, he lied about been a wealthy man based in Dubai, but he ended up taking her to Kenya where he makes money from men that came to sleep with her, she was surprised to find out that their marriage was fake, he only married her to use her as a sex slave.
She bit her lower lips and remembered the only guy that loved her so much, how she broke his heart and ran away. She had attempted escaping from her husband but had always failed, he vowed to have her killed next time she tries to escape, she doesn’t have phone to call her people and her passport has also been seized, she sat up on hearing footsteps and rushed to the bathroom for a quick bath.
**********************************************
“I’ve spoken to your daddy, he has accepted your decision but he’s still angry with you, “Uncle Gabriel told George
“I know, and I can’t face him now, my problem now is the girl that I knocked down, she has refused to reveal her identity, I wanted to report her case to the police but she won’t hear of it, so the doctor advised I take it easy on her because of her health, but she needs to speak up, I need to get done with her and move on with my life, she will be discharged tomorrow and I still don’t know where she will stay till she opens up” he lamented
“Don’t worry about where she will stay, she can stay here with us, it’s just me, my wife, you and Gift. she can stay here as long as you wants”
“Thank you so much uncle, you just saved me, I will have to force that girl to speak up, moreover she was the one at fault, she didn’t look before crossing. Elvis is back, I will move into his house tomorrow, I don’t want to be a burden to you”
“Am I complaining? My house is big enough to accommodate everyone”
“I know, but I need to find something doing, Elvis promised to help me get something doing, I want to be independent, I don’t want my parents doing everything for me”
“You and this your policy, I pray it works out for you, ”
“Food is ready” Gift announced interrupting their discussion
They all walked to the dining to enjoy a delicious meal of pounded yam and vegetable soup.

“Why are you here this early?” she asked him ignoring his greetings
“I’m here to see my love and prince, I came to drive you to church”
“When did you become this caring? I don’t need your attention and care, stop stalking on my son and i”

“Don’t worry, I will follow you to your church, I don’t mind driving behind you” Noel said
“Feel free to do that” Robert said
Debbie muttered some words and entered the car, Noel drove behind them, he was determined to fight for Debbie and their son.
******** Noel drove behind them, they were almost close to the church when Robert’s car came to a halt, he also stopped and watched closely. After what seemed like an unending argument, Robert walked towards his car, he hurriedly opened the door and came out to meet him.
“I just received an urgent call that needs my attention, please help me drive them to the church and take care of them”
That was a very good news Noel just received, he accepted the offer without hesitation, Debbie reluctantly entered his car and he drove straight to the church.
The Congregations were hurrying inside the church as service was about to begin, Debbie came down with her baby and joined in the rush, Noel followed her behind, they found an empty seat and occupied it.

“Take care of him, they should know you’re a father” she muttered

“Thank God you’re here, you won’t believe she’s been screaming since she woke up, we tried talking to her but she refused listening to us, she’s still there crying” his uncle told him
“I’m tired of this girl o, is this how I will be running to your house every now and then? Cant she see that she’s killing me slowly? ” George lamented.
His uncle led him to the visitor’s room, he opened the door and met her sitting on the floor. Upon seeing him, she rushed at him and hugged him tightly.
“They tried to kill me, please don’t leave me alone here”she said shaking in fear.
His heart melted on hearing that, she has been having this nightmare since he brought her to his uncle’s house,
“I”m here, no one will kill you and I promise never to leave you again. Now get up and arrange your room, then you will shower and I will prepare something for you to eat” he said helping her to stand up
Others were amazed at how she feels secured around him, they left them in the room and went downstairs to have breakfast.
They came out Hours later, went into the kitchen, they cooked noodles together and went to the dining to eat. Uncle G saw how happy she was around George.
“Since you’ve refused to tell us your name, I shall call you Angel” George said
She smiled at the name,
“Hope you love the name?” he asked her.
She nodded and continued with the food
Gift walked in to see them eating together, she cleared her throat.
“Hope I’m not interrupting anything?” she asked with a grin
“Nooo, you can sit with us” George said
She sat close to him and watched Angel eat
“Gift, please you can call her Angel, I just gave her the name”
“Huh? Why Angel? She has a name, let her open up and tell us her name and quit all the pretence” Gift said with jealousy in her voice
“Who told you that she’s pretending? Take it easy on her, she will come around soon”
“I pray so because i’m getting fed up with her attitude, maybe she needs to see a psychiatrist”
“Stop it Gift, dont be like this” George rebuked her
“I’m sorry “she apologised and ran to her room

“Where did you go leaving my child crying all day?” he threw at her.
“Excuse me, that you got me pregnant doesn’t give you the right to monitor my movement or shout at me” she threw back at him.
“Haven’t you punished me enough? Why are you now punishing my son,he’s been crying since I came here”
“Don’t make me look like a bad mother, I love my son more than you do, if you had loved him so much you wouldn’t have given me a cheque of five million naira to abort him. I think you have over stepped your boundary, now give me my baby and get the hell out of my house and please don’t return again”
He has never seen her so angry.
“I’m sorry if I was harsh, please I’m sorry” he said and went on his knees.
He knelt down crying like a baby, the nanny that was standing behind them broke down in tears too,she carried the baby from his mother and took him to the nursery.
“Debbie I love you so much, I’m so sorry for ever giving you cheque to abort our baby, just give me a second chance in your life, I need you and our baby”
She helped him stand on his feet and before she knew it, his lips were already on hers, his mouth was warm and inviting. she has missed him so much, she closed her eyes as she responded to his kisses.
“What is going on here? Robert asked in shock.
She quickly broke away from his grip and slapped him
“Get out!!!!!!”she yelled at him
