VIOLATION OF A GOOD MAN
EPISODE 3
My heart kept missing a beat when I foresaw the kind of pain and anguish I will pass through if unfortunately, the policemen t©rtures me with a h®t ele¢tric iron.
I felt like vanishing into thin air and my heart kept pounding heavily.
“Is this how Nkechi will put my life to an end?” I said staring hopelessly on the roof with tears free-flowing from my eyes.
The floor was full of tears that looked like steam. The bruises on my body were much new – the pains were really insufferable.
I couldn’t lay on the mat in the cell.
I sat down on my floor sobbing and I did not know when I slept off.
At dawn, I was still in my slumber when I heard a policeman yelling close to the cell portal. His voice sounded like the one that blurted at me yesterday.
“Wake up you larcener and homi¢ider,” he said in a high tone.
My heart was in my mouth and I woke up immediately like a man who had a nightmare.
“You’re just sleeping at the switch,” He said with a voice that sounded like a rumble of thunder. ” Your body will expli¢ate to you soon” he added.
I started shivering instantly. “Someone is looking for you” the policeman uttered while opening the cell portal locked with a chain.
I was afraid of my shadow and I hastened out of the cell to espy who visited me.
Lo and behold, it was Ekene, the son of the woman that was looking after my mother.
He was twenty years old and he had just graduated from secondary school.
He stared at me with his countenance grim and dreary. I was frozen with thoughts; “what might have happened”.
Ekene sat on the stool staring at me in the eyes. Tears dropped down his cheeks and he disclosed to me that Mama had been locked in the dungeon of the Grim Reaper – mama had díed.
“Chai! Chai!” I howled rolling on the ground –I didn’t care if I had been injured.
” Mama strived relentlessly for me, she suffered for me but still I failed her” I screamed.
Pity welled up the heart of the policewoman in the scene as I saw her eyes swollen.
Ekene held me up but I dashed to the ground.
Three policemen came and dragged me to the cell-like they wanted to eat me alive– they handcuffed and blindfolded me.
I was like a cat on hot bricks when I heard a sound of a switch. The policemen didn’t utter any word – they were murmuring.
Instantly, they h it a h©t iron on my ¢heek and removed it immediately – it carried out some flesh from my left ¢heek.
I groaned throatily like a man who gurgled in water with a heavy stone slung around his ne¢k.
“Please officers, please” I blubbered as though I was succumbing.
They had no mercy upon me as they stroked the lron again with fu..ry on my ba¢k continuously.
“I did not kí ll Tony!” I kept shouting but they turned deaf ears.
Being de ad was better than passing through such agony.
I wanted to hinder them from inflicting more p ain on me but my hands were handcuffed.
“I wish I could d íe through this and rest forever” I muttered as if that was my last words.
