** CONTINUATION **

Chuks walked to his hostel quietly. He climbed the stairs with uneasiness, and less interest.

" since the sweet pill has lost it taste, we will have no other alternative than to throw it away and continue with our lives. " he thought aloud.

In few seconds, He came face to face with his room.
" change is the only constant phenomenon in the univers, " he muttered to himself.
He remembered a famous quote from ESIXLOVE that " if you refuse to effect a change, change will effect itself, but often time it is in the Negative. "
He composed himself and brought out a key from his trouser pocket, insect it into the key hole. In a second the door swung open.

He met the shock of his life, someone was inside his room.
..................

The three girls reached their hostel as quiet as they could, but it was almost impossible not to draw some stares from People,

slowly they climbed to the second floor and then to their room.
As soon as the door was opened, Abigail went on her knees. She had been practicing how to beg Ada for forgiveness.
She knew too well that Ada was still having grudges towards her, despite the fact that she said she had forgiven her at the hospital.

" Ada, I know that it was wrong of me to do what i did to you. I don't know what really came over me. I cant blame the devil, because i didn't see him when i pushed you. But now i see wrongs. Please forgive me for the pains that i caused you. " Abigail Pleaded with Ada to forgive her.

" Ada, please forgive Abigail, to err is human and to forgive is divine. " Nkechi cut in.

" what if i died in coma? " Ada asked.

" we thank God for his mercy that it did not come to that. " Nkechi continued.

" ok, i've forgiven her. " Ada replied.

Abigail looked up in disbelief, she knew too well that Ada does not let go easily.
" you have forgiven her for real? " Nkechi asked excitedly with wide eyes.

" sure!, i have forgiven her, Abigail, you can rise to your feet. " she said, but deep down in her, she had sworn to take her revenge on Abigail. She was just pretending so that her friends will stop bothering her with their pleading and sermon.

" thank you very much Ada, I promise not to hurt you ever again. " Abigail replied.

" that is when you have also visited the hospital. " Ada said to herself and gave a wicked smile.

" just make sure you keep your promise. " Ada replied.

" girls!, it's been a while since we actually cooked in this room, i want to rush to the market to get some food stuffs. " Nkechi said to her friends with much excitement.

" i want to come to the market too. " Abigail replied.

" me too!. " Ada added, with that the three friends headed for the market.
..............

" chief!, what was the meaning of that thing you said in the sittingroom? " mrs Jones shut at her husband when she finally caught up with him in the bedroom.

Chief was careful enough not to reply, knowing the kind of person that she was.
When it comes to bad characters and sharp tongue, she will come out with flying colours.

" Chief!, is it not you that i'm talking to? " she added.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.
" who is that!, do you want to break down my door? " Chief transferred the aggression to whosoever it was that was knocking on the door.

" sir it's me Nkiru! " the girl knocking replied.

" so Nkiru!, what's the problem with you!, don't you know when not to disturb people in their private chamber? " Mrs jones fired at Nkiru the house help that was taking care of the house.

" i'm sorry ma, someone is in the sittingroom, and he says that he wants to see sir! " Nkiru replied shivering.

" it's ok Nkiru, just give anything he wants to keep him company, tell him that i will be with him in a moment. " Chief replied calmly but with a voice full of majesty.

" thank you sir. " Nkiru replied and prostrate even when the door was close before she left to attend to the guest.

** CONTINUATION **

Like a nightmare, the two days that was given to them to sort themselves out before going to see the school authority had expired.

That Morning Chuks woke up with a heavy heart. The thought of standing before the school authority occupied his bones and marrow.
Like a flash the event of the previous days interrupted his thoughts.

When He opened the door to his room the day that he was discharged from the hospital, He was so shocked to discover that someone was sleeping peacefully on his mattrass.

He moved closer quietly and carefully so as not to give a clue that someone was present in the room. He even more shocked to discover whom the person was.

" Sade!!! "

" what are you doing here!!! " he screamed, it was more of an exclamation than of question. That, startled the poor girl that was sleeping peacefully on the soft mattrass. Immediately, she sprang to her feet, heading for the kitchen door instead of the exit door..
It took her some time to realise her error. She made a u-turn Immediately it dawn on her thatt she was in the wrong direction and head for the exit.

" Sade!!! " Chuks called after her trying to recover from his shock. She stopped on her track and looked over her shoulder.

" Sade is that really you? " he asked with his mouth wide open. " yes it's me, and please don't creat a scene " she replied calmly and sleepy too.
" i need to catch some rest too. " she added and walked back towards the mattrass. This time she settled for Jude"s mattrass.

" Sade, What happend to you that night? " Chuks asked.
" I don't want to talk about it now, i want to continue my sleep, i a lectures to attend later in the day. " she replied and close her eyes to sleep.

" but how did you get the key to the room? " he continued his interrogating.

" ok!, Jude gave me a spare key. I had to be coming around to open and tidy the room since I returned and discover that you guys were no where to be found. I was hoping that you guys will return one day. By the way, why is Jude not with you? " she asked from her sleeping position.
With that question, Chuks' countenance dropped to the lowest term. " It's a long story. " he replied with his jaw dropping.

" what do you mean by a long story, start from somewhere! " she yelled. Every atom of sleep had disappeared from her by that single information.

" After we came to where the car had knocked you down... " he started.

" that was how it all went. Infact in two days time the three of us will be meeting with the school authority on this same issue. " he concluded.
" you mean to tell me that nobody can tell the whereabout of my heart? " she asked in disbelief. " that's how it appears. " Chuks replied.

She had left for lectures that day at noon and with a strong determination to search for Jude..

All this brought fresh tears to Chuks' eyes as he thought about what had become of his friend. He shook himself off the sad memories and looked at the clock opposite his sitting position, that was when he realised that he had spent more than two hours in his thoughts, and that he had less than an hour to meet with the school authority.

The loud noise in his stomach reminded him that he had not taken breakfast that morning. He rushed into the kitchen and grabbed a few slice of bread that was remaining from the full loaf of bread that Sade gave to him the previous day.
He drank two full cups of water. Feeling satisfied, he grabbed a shirt from their little wardrobe inside the room.
He made sure that everywhere was locked properly before moving out.

** CONTINUATION **

They arrived the Dean Office just in time to see Him gathering some files is his shelf. " Goodmorning sir! " they greeted chorusly.

" what is the time? " He asked them without looking at them.

" It's five minute past 9am sir. " they chorusly replied.
" what time did i asked the three of you to see me in my office? " He replied still doing what He was doing
" 9am sir! " they replied in unison.
" so what kept you people? " he asked turning to face them. They kept mute, facing the floor of the office.
" you boys know that i have a policy, i don't play with my time. "he said putting on his medicated glasses.
" we are sorry sir! " they chorused.

" you boys should have a seat. I was Actually on my way to an appointment with a friend from another school, but i will put a call to him, to extend it by 45mins, so make yourselves comfortable while i get my phone. " he said calmly while reaching out for his phone.

" So lets get started!, what happend that you guys disappeared from the school when you were to see the DPO of the divisional headquarter. " the Dean asked looking them straight in the face after dropping the call.

" oh!, i see!, you guys are confused as to who will be the spoke man. Chuks!, you will do all the talking since it is your roommate that is directly involve. I presume that He will be more closer to you than the rest of your friends. " The Dean added adjusting his glasses.

" ermm! " Chuks clearer his throat. " go on. " the Dean encouraged him.

" Sir, when we left the school that fateful day, we boarded a bus from the school gate. But unknown to us, the guys were ritualist... " Chuks started going down memory lane.
...........

Chief was getting ready to go out that morning when his wife stood on his way barring him from going outside.
" woman!, let me go out nah, i have a meeting to catch up with the board members of my company. That meeting is schedule for 9:30am, and you know what Trans-Amadi traffic jam can look like. Please leave the way. " Chief pleaded with his wife to leave the way.
" i'm not going to anywhere until you give me the half a million that i asked for. " she barked at him like someone that has tasted insanity.
Chief brought out his cheque book and signed the money for her, but she turned it down requesting for cash. " but you know that it is not possible to keep that kind of money at home nah. " Chief continued his pleas. After much persuasion she collected the cheque Before leaving the way for him to go out.

At noon Mrs Jones went to the bank to cash the money. After spending about thirty minutes at the banking hall she got angry and confronted the manager upstairs. " what is wrong with your bankers, i've been her for the past thirty minute without being attended to. " She yelled at the MANAGER as soon as she stormed into his office. She only realised that something was wrong after she had finished blabbing.
The manager was bleeping of his one of the ladies in charge of the customer care unit.
The embarrassment on their faces was out of this world.

" manager! So this is what you do inside your office!, you are so dead!, i will make sure i report you to your superior! " She dropped her bomb before jaming the door and left the bank without cashing the cheque.
She got to her car and opened the car.
She kicked the engine to life and sped off. But unknown to her she was being followed.
................

Ada and her friends were getting ready to go to their various lectur hall when they heard a knock on the door. It was Ada that went for the door, when she opened the door someone was there with a flower smiling at her.

" please is Abigail in? " the guy asked her. " sure!, she is in, but you have to wait for me to inform her. " she replied and closed the door again.
" who was that? " Nkechi asked puzzled. " it's one handsome guy that is looking for Abigail, he even has a flower with him. " Ada replied.

" And who might that be? " Abigail asked from where she was combing her hair. " are you asking me!, how will i know? " Ada replied.

" let check him out " Abigail said and made for the door. " no don't go!, stay and ask me questions " Ada replied and head for the kitchen.

" Kingdom! What are you doing here? " she asked as soon as she opened the door and saw the person standing outside with a flower in his hand.

" I'm so sorry Abigail for what i did to you " Kingdom said.
" guy! You are a complete past tense and bad luck!, just go, i have lectures to attended right away, so just carry yourself and go home now that you still some pride left in you before i launch hot water on you. " She replied angryly and banged the door hard.

** CONTINUATION **

They took us into some forest. We walk for more than two hours moving deep into the forest. Soon we came to an open space with few trees to serve as canopies.
Head of us was a gate. I can't recall if the colour was red or green. They matched us toward the gate and knocked on it. After about five of hard knocking, the gate swung open and we were ushered into it the compound. The man that opened the door looked at us like people led to the slaughter house.
The compound was a big one. From the gate to the main building was nothing short of a hundred metre. There was nothing beautiful about the compound save for some flowers that was scattered throughout the compound.
One would never have thought that such a place existed deep inside the forest. Chuks exhaled and wiped off some drops of sweat from his face before continuing his narration.

When we got to the door of the house, one of the thugs that apprehended us knocked on twice on the door. I presume that it was their signal or whatever. The door opened in a flash and they pushed us into the building.
There were several rooms in the building such that two people were thrown into each room.
Fred and Johnbull were put in the same room while one girl was put into the same room with me. The other five people were taken to different rooms in twos.
Well from that moment onward, everybody was responsible for his or herself. And the fight for survival began.
................

The girls went to their various departments. Ada went to her mass communication department while Abigail and Nkechi went to their physics department.
Mr Chukwuma was to take them in physics that morning. After waiting for more than thirty minutes, Mr Chukwuma strolled into the class majestically.

" Today we will talk about 'electronics'. " he said after acknowledging their greetings. He walked up to the board and wrote " ELECTRONICS " on it before starting his explanations.

" Electronics is the application of electromagnetic (and quantum) theory
to construct devices that can perform useful tasks, from as simple as
electrical heaters or light bulbs to as complex as the Large Hadron
Collider. " he said before pausing to see the reactions of the students.

" Electronics Introduction: " he wrote as a sub topic before facing the students and started talking.

" To discuss electronics we need the basic concepts from electricity: charge, current which is flow of charge, and potential which is the potential energy difference between two places. Please make sure
these concepts are familiar before continuing. " he said and went further to write ' CIRCUIT ' on the board.

" The interest of electronics is circuits. A circuit consists of wires that connect components. Typical components are resistors, voltage sources and so on, which will be discussed later. A circuit can be open, when there is a break so that no current can flow, or it can be closed, so that current can flow. These definitions allow us to discuss
electronics efficiently. " he said and was about to continue when a guy interrupted him.

" what insolence! Audacity! Effrontery! And Impudence!, you dare to interrupt my lecture with all manner of Alacrity! " he yelled at the boy.

** CONTINUATION **

Mrs Jones hit the road in annoyance after leaving the bank and was driving at a neck breaking speed.
" foolish man! " She cursed the driver of a black thundra that stubbornly refused to leave the middle lane for her.
The road was surprisingly free of traffic that morning.
She pulled up at genesis fast food Rumuogba to grab a bite.

" what's wrong with you!, don't you watch where you are going to? " She looked at her white dress that was now now stained with a mixture of spaghetti and juice.

" i'm sorry ma. " the girl that was carrying the tray tried to apologies.

" sorry for your... " She swallowed the remaining word because of what she saw. " could this be true! " she thought. The once angry look was now being replaced by a confused and painful look.
" is anything the matter ma? " the girl asked when she noticed that her countenance had changed.
" nothing, next time just watch where you going. " she replied still looking confused.
" i will ma. Once again i'm so sorry for your dress. " the girl said and walked back to the reception. She watched the girl for sometime before storming out of the fast food to her car.
Mrs Jones rested her head on the seat of the car. She contemplated on what her eyes had witness inside the fast-food. " there's something about that girl! " she thought before kicking the engine to life and drove out of the car park.

25mins later she came to a halt at her friend's hair dressing saloon at rumuokwuta, but left after few minutes and head towards Rumuokoro.
....................

" but sir!, " the boy tried to explain the reason for interrupting the lecture but his explanation was cut short by the uproar the rented the air.

" Enough!!! " Mr Chukwuma yell.
" ok!, since the lizard had dare to challenge the crocodile to a wrestling contest, he should also be ready to come along with a mattrass so he can sleep peacefully inside the crocodile's stomach. " Mr Chukwuma said. The class went into uproar again with some students even hitting the desk.

" you people should go and study the function of a transformer in a given CIRCUIT and summit it as your assignment by 12pm tomorrow. Akin come with me right away! " with that Mr Chukwuma stormed out of the hall. Akin did not wait for Mr Chukwuma to repeat the statement before he followed him. While the class continued in the uproar, only few of them caught wind of what the lecturer just said.

" Abeg wetin Mr Chukwuma talk before im comot for class?, the noise no gree make i hear anything wey im talk. " a girl asked Nkechi after the noise had died down.
" the man give us assignment o, say make we study the function of transformer in a given CIRCUIT. " Nkechi replied. " na wa for that man o!, im never teach us anything im don dey give us assignment. How we wan take sabi am? " the girl lamented.
" you dey ask me?, why you no go ask person wey give you the assignment! " Nkechi replied sacastically.
" no be fight nah, i bin just dey talk. " the girl replied patting her on the shoulder before walking out of the hall.

Nkechi located her friend Abigail, together the head for the canteen.
...............

I was so weak after the long distance trekking that they made us to under go, and soon sleep came knocking on my door.

I was awaken by the hand the kept troubling my sleep. Someone was shaking me violently. " wake up! " i heard a voice call out. At first i couldn't register my present environment. Then a hot slap landed on my cheek, followed by the same voice. " wake up!, you big fool! " the voice said. I was so weak to the extent that lifting a finger seemed a difficult task.
I Slowly opened my eyes to look around the environment. It became clear to me that i was sleeping in the face of danger.
" why were you shaking me like that? " i asked the girl that was put in the same room with me. " how can you be sleeping when our lives is in danger! " she replied.
I took a good look at the room again before replying her question. " this room has an iron protector attacked to the ceiling and the door also has iron protector, what do you want me to do since i don't have a charm that will enable me to disappear from here. " I replied.
" anything is better than just sleeping there and snoring as if nothing is wrong. " she replied. " is it not when Someone has a clear head that he think of a solution to his problem. So allow me to sleep and clear my head. " i said and went back to resume my sleep.
" by the time they succeed in killing you, then you will have enough time to sleep till eternity. " she replied sacastically. That very word made all the sleep in my eyes to disappear. Then we heard a footstep approaching.

** CONTINUATION **

It was as if a massive earth quake just hit the room that we were in. The girl that was running her mouth as if she was in possession of all the strategies and energy in the entire univers was now shivering behind me like a leaf dancing to the tone of the hamattan breeze.
We waited patiently for the footstep to come closer. The footstep approached steadily and stopped in front of our room.
My heart almost jumped out of my mouth when i heard the sound of a key trying to locate its position in the keyhole.
After some seconds of trying to get in touch with the keyhole The door swung open and we came face to face with what i could classify as a beastly human being.
I looked around the room again for any chance of escaping but found non.
The girl almost chock the life out of me because of her tight grip on my clothe.
I would swear on my life that the Man-beast as i would like to refer to him had not come in contact with a cliper for the past two and above.
I was thinking of seizing that opportunity to escape out of the room through the door that he was standing but on a second thought i changed my mind, because if i fail in the escape plan the guy might just beat me to death. Again the chance of escaping through the door was slim because the size of the Man-beast was enough to cover the entrance of the room.
He stood at the entrance holding a bunch of key in his left hand and a food flasks in his right hand. The shoe that he was putting on had no difference from his counterparts used during the Nigeria-biafra civil war.
He dropped the food flasks at the entrance and without a saying anything left the same way he came locking the door behind him.
Soon his footsteps faded away like a nightmare.
We looked at the food flasks waiting for the first person to make a move.
" that food might be poisoned by this people to make it easier for them to kill us all. " the girl said after a while.
I wanted to reason with her but the rumbling in my stomach was telling me otherwise .

" what is my own there?, if i don't eat, soon i will starve to death. If they've poisoned the food, i will still die. So it's better that i eat the food and die than to starve to death. " I replied. With that went to where the the Man-beast left the food and took it to a corner, sat down and consumed the food voraciously.
The Man-beast returned later with two sachet water and took the the food flasks away without saying anything to us. She refused to drink the water with the same excuse that the water might also be poisoned.
For me that was an opportunity to drink to my satisfaction as i drank the two sachets without looking back. After that i located a wonder position in one of the corners of the room and slept off.
...............

mrs Jones soon get to her location at Rumuokoro. She knocked on the door of a self-contain that was painted with green and grey and waited for someone to answer the door.

" who is that! " someone answered from inside the house.
" M13! " she replied.
" I will be there in a moment. " the voice replied.
In few seconds the door opened and a you man in his late Twenties stepped out of the house and locked her in a warm embrace. She quickly disentangled herself from the embrace.

" how many times have i warned you not to embrace me in public. My husband has eyes everywhere and that might endanger your life. " hot kisses landed all over her face as soon as she stepped into the house.
" umm... Ahh... " the moans escaped from her throat as she returned the gesture. Soon their clothes were flying in different directions.
...........

Nkechi and Abigail entered the canteen majestically like their own the entire univers. They walked to a corner of the canteen and located a vacant seat.

" madam give us two plates of rice and beans with meat 150 naira each. " Nkechi said dusting her seat.
" put am plenty stew! " Abigail added.
The woman brought two plates loaded with food and placed it in front of the girls. Like two hungry wolves they devoured the food.

" can we join you girls? " they lifted up their head to meet two pair of eyes staring at them.
" we bought food and not the seats, so we have no right to stop anyone from sitting down on them. " Nkechi replied and continued on her food. " that was harsh! " Abigail whispered to Nkechi.

" you guys should seat. " Abigail said.
They drew out a seat and sat down. Nkechi hurried over her food and stood to leave the table.
" babe relax and lets have fun. " one of the boys said.
" i'm sorry i have to go. I have lectures in thirty mins time and it's a combine class, so i need to hurry along to get a good position to seat down. She replied and dragged Abigail along despite her protest. But one of the boys had succeeded in passing a note to Abigail containing their contacts.
They paid for their food and left the canteen.
