Episode 17
I woke up around 7am, I switched on my
phone, I got several whatsapp messages
from janet and “call me sms” from
sikirat. I knew I will have to face
interrogation today. I was in the room and I heard madam’s
voice downstairs. I also heard the sound of
a sweeping broom at the back of the
compound. I was scared to come out of the
room because I don’t know the excuse I
will give janet, after a while, I overheard madam telling sikirat to buy fruits while
coming from the market, then I
remembered today is another market day. “Waoh, what do I do?”. I sent a text to
sikirat that I will be at home by 10am and
she should see me there.. I came down stairs and met madam in the
living room, ME: good morning ma MADAM: good morning onihaxy, how was
your night? ME: fine ma. How was the vigil? MADAM: it was ok, ME: ok ma. Pls ma, I wanted to check on a
friend in town at 9am so I said I should
inform you MADAM: ***laughed***, you are funny,
you are free to go to anywhere at anytime
provided it is not affecting my children’s
lesson sessions. I’m not imprisoning you
here, you are only here to work so you
should have your freedom **she patted me on the back**. ME: ok ma. Where is janet? MADAM: she is still in her room. I went back upstairs to my room. I sent
texts to janet, apologising about my
inability to come last night. I told her I was
scared of being caught by gideon and
sikirat but janet refused to reply. I then
recorded a 3minutes voice note, telling her how much I missed and loved her. Then
she replied with a voice note ”I love you
too, I couldn’t sleep well last nite because
I missed you”. Chaiii, I don hook ooo!!!, Its 9am, I had my bath, dressed up and
went to my house, on getting home, I was
in my bad neighbour’s room having a
gist and chats when my phone rang at
9:49am. I checked the screen and it was
sikirat. I picked the call and she said she was at my door entrance. I dashed out of my neighbour’s room and
went to meet sikirat. We entered my room
and started conversations. SIKIrAT: what happened last night, why did
you switch off your phone? ME: I wanted to sleep for a while before
the night call, so I ended up sleeping off till
morning. SIKIRaT: hmmmmm, abi its because of
aunty janet? ME: **laughs*** janet kee? Rara ooo, I just
slept off, that’s all. SIKIrAT: I was awake all through the night
sha, waiting for the time I will hear door
movements but I didn’t hear any. ME: door movements?, how? SIKIRAT: that was what madam told me to
watch out for. In fact, I slept at the store
room upstairs last night. ME: ***chaiii*** see me see monitoring
ooooo”. So if I went to her room, what
would have happened? SIKIRAT: I will tell madam ni ME: **i don enter am** have you believed
me now that I’m not dating janet? SIKIRAT: not yet. “Smiled”. ME: now that the white house is secured,
how do we get to see? SIKIRAT: let’s continue with our old
method of market days ME: ***chaiii, this babe get sense*** We had a sweet “woman riding on top”
s-x after a sweet romance and she left for
market. After her departure, I picked my
phone to chat with janet. ME: jane baby, how are you? JANET: I’m not fine ME: what happened?, JANET: you aren’t free and closed to me
like before. ME: but baby, try to understand me. As
long as sikirat is always at home, I have to
behave myself. You can’t underrate her,
she might be dangerous. JANET: ok, I have an alternative ME: what is that? JANET: maybe I will be sending her out on
an errand whenever I wanted you, or we
will be going to your house occasionally. ME: ***“chaiiii, this girls no go kill
me”***. Ok, we will talk better when
I’m back JANET: back from where?, so you are not
in this compound?, where are you? ME: oooh sorry I didn’t tell you, I went
out to see a friend. You were indoor at that
time. JANET: ok sir. Don’t stay long outside
oooo. ME: **laughs*** ok dear…… To be continued.
