Linda walked around her cell, she did not have the heart to call it a room.

Who could call a place where you were forced to stay involuntarily a room?

A room where the toilet and shower co existed in the same place?

She heard activity outside her wall, she stood up and dragged herself as far as the chain would reach to the wall.
She watched as a group of people cleaned up the Orangery in preparation no doubt for the party Charles had said he was having. As much as she tried to move closer to her wall she could not reach the wall.

The aromas of cooked food come through the vents of the room and made her stomach growl.
She realised that she hadn’t eaten a real meal since she had been incarcerated and taken hostage by Charles. He had made he eat some kind of dry food that he had placed in a bowl in her room alongside another bowl filled with water.

He hadn’t forced her to eat the contents of the bowl, the implied message was obvious to her that there was nothing else for her to eat.
It was either that or she starved.

Would he let her die if she refused to eat the crap he left for her?

She cried every time she had to eat the dry food; it was tasteless, he wasn’t even treating her like a prisoner. Prisoners had more rights and freedom than she did and even had better food.
Prisoners in Kirikiri prison did not eat dry food.

Consequently, due to the lack of real food she had lost a lot of weight; she did not have a mirror but she knew she had.

He had also got her doing exercises, he said he needed her fit and strong for the tasks she had ahead of her. She had no idea what he had been talking about, she had always hated exercise.

She had conveniently forgotten to do them a couple of times; the electric shock coming through the ankle brace had convinced her otherwise and she had resumed the exercises again.

The few times he had come into her room she had begged him to let her go, she had even tried to use sex as a tool, offering herself to him.

‘I am not interested in having sex with you Linda, I never have been and I will never be interested in you’ he said looking at her with scorn.

That’s when she realised that all the stuff he had done had been a ruse. He had targeted her for a reason.
What was it?

She looked back at the people setting up the room through the glass and she cast her mind back to the first time she had gone to Dubai with her friend Mabel.

She had been at her flat in Isolo; wondering who to con out of money that weekend when her phone rang, she looked at the caller id it was Mabel, she pressed the green button.

Linda said, ‘Hey Mabel how you dey?’, there was a bit of static and Mabel’s voice came over the phone.

‘I am good o, ore. I wanted to see if you would like to go to Dubai with me in two weeks’ time?’ Mabel asked.

Linda paused.

‘I don’t have that kind of money, Mabel, plus what will be needed for visa, transport etc. I have also heard that it can be very expensive over there’ Linda replied.

She wished she could go, that would be serious bragging rights, but she did not have that kind of money lying around at the moment.

‘Linda, don’t worry I will pay for your ticket, hotel and visa, you can pay me back with the money you make out there’ Mabel said.

Linda asked, ‘Money? Please explain how can I make money out there?’

If Mabel said Linda could make money in Dubai, Linda believed her.

Mabel had more the 3,000 followers on Instagram and she was always travelling to Dubai. Linda had once asked Mabel how come she travelled so much and she had told her that she was an Instagram model.

Linda had spent time on Instagram after that updating her profile, hoping that someone would spot her too and make her a model.

Mabel asked, ‘Can you come? I would like to introduce you to someone’. Breaking into her train of thought.

Now that was the language Linda understood, why had Mabel beat around the bush first.

‘Sure, I can Mabel. But what exactly are we going to do?’ Linda asked, as she walked towards her wardrobe to see if she had suitable clothes to wear out there.

‘As I said Linda, I want to introduce you to someone, he asked me to bring a friend and I thought of you. We will leave on a Thursday morning and come back to Lagos on Monday. So it will be a long weekend in Dubai’ Mabel said.

Mabel continued, ‘I can collect your passport and get your visa processed in a day, so leave all that to me. Speak to you later’

Linda had initially been appalled by the by the set up Mabel exposed her to when they go to Dubai; but eventually she got over her revulsion.

Mabel had been right about the trip though, Linda had been able to repay all the expenses Mabel had incurred on her behalf. After she had deducted all the money she had to return to Mabel, she had in excess $3000 left, that she had used to go shopping in the Dubai malls.

It had been a very lucrative trip money wise, once she got back to Lagos, she had started working on improving her Instagram profile she needed to become an Instagram model too.

She had even been able to go back to Dubai without Mabel, well what was the point of sharing money with her when she could have it all to herself.

She had told Tunde that she was going there on business, looking at things she could buy to sell in Nigeria and he believed her, if only he knew what she had really been up to.

She had already given up on trying to find out how Charles had found out about her trips to Dubai.

She came out of her reverie and shuffled towards her bowls, she picked up the bowl with the dry food. It was a mixture of different kind’s seeds and grains. Whatever the dry food was, once she drank the water it kept her full for most of the day.

She shuffled back to her bed and laid down, her back was hurting from her ordeal in the room; she never wanted to go back in there, as the tears fell silently down cheeks.

She must have dozed off, it was the strong aroma of food and voices that must have pulled her out of her slumber, her wall was up.

Sitting on a table opposite her were four men, three Arabs and the dark skinned Charles.

The Arabs were the men she had meet on her clandestine trips to Dubai, the men she had met behind Mabel’s back.

Sh!t!!

Sh!t!!

Did the men know each other, how had Charles managed to get the three of them together in one room?

The three men staring at her from across the room were the most perverted men she had ever fortunately or unfortunately come across.
But she had never been together with the three of them at the same time in the same room.

It was at that moment that she knew she was fúcked…

‘Our hostess is awake,’ Charles said as he heaped a large serving spoon of jollof rice onto his plate.

The other men were busy eating what looked like pounded yam and egusi, they must have enjoyed it as they kept on topping up the egusi on their plate.

Linda stared at the food on their plates like a child in a sweet shop, her mouth watered her tummy rumbled.
