[b] EPISODE NINE MFYL PR2

The first set of pictures showed her while she was contesting for Miss NYSC for her platoon. Even though she never mentioned it that she contested for the beauty pageant, the pictures were actually stunning and adorable. Other pictures showed she did won the contest and I felt goose bumps while viewing them. The shocker came when she was pictured with a muscular guy. My first thought was that the guy is the macho man of their camp but seeing her pecking him more than once makes me feel like going to toilet. Temmy was right, she has actually found another guy and that’s why our reduction in communication becomes an issue.

I continued to read the message Janet sent to accompany the pictures and it goes thus; “Will, I’m sorry to be the one saying this but your cherished angel has become somebody else’s angel. The guy was the macho man contestant for their platoon, though the guy did not win but the chemistry between them is open to everybody. I took my time to study them so I won’t give you false info because I know it will make you devastated but I think you deserve to know the truth. On the other hand, it might just be a camp fling and I wish you both the best. Call me I’ve got news for you”.

She’s right because I was highly devastated. I personally don’t just conclude like that without finding out the truth, but the fact she broke up with me is enough proof that the news is true. By the way, the pictures were too glaring and I don’t see a reason why Janet will want to blackmail her since she’s no more on to me. I couldn’t hold it; I put a call through to Temmy asking him to meet me up on the field. I showed him the message and the pictures sent to me by Janet to which he was more shock than I was.

Temmy: I said it, but I wasn’t hoping to be right. This is going too far menh!

Me: Temmy I don’t actually know what to do

Temmy: Try calling her again.

I put a call through to her but she wasn’t picking up just like it has been over a week now.

Me: She’s not picking up.

Temmy: Maybe we should use another number to call her

Me: What’s the point? She doesn’t want to speak with me.

Temmy: This is ridiculous, and it’s unlike her really. Something is wrong somewhere because this is really too funny to be true. Try calling Janet to confirm again.

Me: I’ll call Janet but there is nothing to prove again. Those pictures are enough evidence. (I put a call through to Janet)

Janet: Hello baby boy

Me: Jane what’s up?

Janet: I’m okay, the way you are sounding it’s like you’ve view those pictures

Me: Yes I have, what news did you say you have for me?

Janet: Which one did you want first, the good or the bad?

Me: I already have the bad news, tell me the good.

Janet: Well the bad news isn’t completed but I’ll start with the good.

Me: Okay I’m listening

Janet: I’ll be getting married in the next three months.

Me: Wao! So fast, I thought you’ll wait a little after your intro.

Janet: My man wants to start processing my paper, he said the earlier we do it, the faster its likely going to be.

Me: That’s good. I’m happy for you dear. Congratulations.

Janet: Thanks dear. Your own will come too

Me: Yeah thanks

Janet: Hmm don’t give up just like that Will, even if it’s not Funmi, you’ll find a great lady to marry because you are a great guy yourself.

Me: Thanks Jane, so what’s the other news?

Janet: I’ll prefer to send it on Whatsapp with pictures

Me: Send the picture but tell me what it is

Janet: Are you sure?

Me: Positive.

Janet: Alright. Well, we all initially thought it was a drama or maybe they were just being naughty but we realize it’s too real to be ordinary play.

Me: What’s real?

Janet: That guy proposed to Funmi with a diamond ring

Me: Wao. Proposed just after two weeks of meeting each other? That’s will be the fastest proposal story I’ve heard in my life. Diamond ring means the guy is very rich

Janet: Yeah, I heard his father is a popular politician

Me: It’s alright, so what happened?

Janet: Well Funmi accepted his proposal.

Me: I thought you said it wasn’t a play let

Janet: No it wasn’t, she accepted and they kiss for real.

Me: They accept kissing on your camp?

Janet: I guess the officials thought they were merely acting. Although I strongly believe they know about it because the guy is highly influential.

Me: Hmm, getting engaged to a guy you met in just two weeks? I’m sure they must have been having affair before now. Well, that’s good, may God bless their union

Janet: What did you say?

Me: I said may God bless their union.

Janet: Oh oh! Where is that coming from?

Me: Janet I can’t kill myself because of a lady now. Please send in the pictures so I can have something to hold on to

Janet: Are you sure you still want to see them?

Me: Yes I need it. It will be the evidence.

Janet: Okay I’ll send it immediately after this call. But please take it easy o. The way you are acting as if it’s not affecting you is scaring me.

Me: Thanks Jane, I’ll be fine. So how do we get the venue for your wedding?

Janet: Common, I’ll send you your IV

Me: Alright I’ll be expecting it. Thanks Jane.

Jane: Please take it easy o

Me: I’m good, thanks a lot

Janet: What of Temmy? He’ll be in good position to handle this

Me: He’s here; let me give the phone to him.

I gave the phone to Termmy while they speak on. For the first time in my Life, I almost shamefully shed tears because of a Lady, if not for the quick intervention of Temmy who noticed the abnormal behavior on time.

Temmy: Common stop that rubbish you are about to do.

Me: Temmy I am a fool

Temmy: No you are not bro

Me: What the damn did I eat that gave me such delusional confidence?

Temmy: What are you talking about?

Me: How do I believe a lady that is higher than me financially will fall in love with me just like that?

Temmy: Damn! That’s the worst thing I’ve ever heard you say since I’ve known you. That’s pure low self-esteem.

Me: She got engaged to another guy.

Temmy: Janet told me, but I don’t believe it, I think it’s a misconception.

Me: Kissing in public is also a misconception?

Temmy: They kissed?

I switched on my mobile data and allow the message to enter then I show him the pictures.

Temmy: Oh my God! This is not Funmi!

Me: Maybe she’s a twin too

Temmy: I mean something is wrong somewhere. In just three weeks? Stuffs like that only happen in Nollywood, this is not possible menh!

Me: I’m thinking they’ve been dating before now. Well, welcome to reality

Temmy: That’s a possibility, because three weeks is too small for any lady to accept proposal like that. But she doesn’t look like somebody that was cheating before. Mehn, I honestly don’t know how to approach this

Me: I think I know what to do

Temmy: What’s that?

Me: I have to protect myself from total heart break therefore I’ll block her on every platform where we are connected. Thank God she did not want to hear from me before.

Temmy: That will be counterproductive.

Me: I’m not going to beg her Temmy.

Temmy: Of course, that will be suicidal. But blocking her will be childish.

Me: What do you suggest I do then?

Temmy: Just let her go from your heart.

Me: Just like that? Temmy this doesn’t look real. Oh oh, just a call, I need a break and that’s all?

Temmy: Let it go

Me: Alright. I pray this doesn’t turn me into a bad boy.

Temmy: You won’t, I won’t let it.

I tried applying Temmy’s advice of totally ignoring her but it was too difficult for me. I see her almost every time. “Is she playing prank on me just like she did with her cousin? Damn! This is a play too far”

The following day, we passed out of the camp and luckily for us, we were given the requested PPA (Place of Primary Assignment) contrary to the rumour we heard that everybody will serve in schools. Mark was however posted to a school in place we were told is on waters. They’ll have to board boat to get there. Both Ifunaya and Uche were posted to Porthacourt metropolis though of different Local governments to each other and to where the company we were posted to is located.

Before we could make any move, the manager called and asked us to wait till he’ll come to pick us. We left the camp after he was done discussing with the RSM who is now friendly with everybody unlike his usual way of shouting at us. I could even sight him consoling some female corps members that were crying because they were posted to islands.

We dropped both Ifunaya and Uche off to their respective destination before we headed down to the manager’s resident to meet a more beautiful lodge they’ve prepared for us. The cables had been fixed with the TV dish now installed. I also surprisingly met my car clean with the engine sounding great.

Manager: Do you like the way she sounds?

Me: So great, what did you do to her?

Manager: We had her serviced yesterday. We took her to their company’s outlet here.

Me: Wao! Thank you sir, using their company is really expensive.

Manager: Not really, we are a regular customer there, so there is discount.

Me: Thank you so much sir

Temmy: Mehn, the car wash must be a professional

Manager: We used the company’s car wash

Me: Thanks so much sir

Manager: You can be calling me Uncle Ben. Ben for Benjamin

Me: Sir, I’ll prefer Daddy Ben

Ben: (Laughing) Do I look that old? Just call me Uncle Ben. That’s what everybody calls me.

Me: Thank you sir.

Ben: Whatever you guys needed just let me know. We’ll sign and stamp your letters tomorrow so you can complete your registration at the LGA NYSC secretariat

Me: Thank you sir.

The environment and the reception suddenly made us forget all we went through on camp. The lodge was well furnished and the fact there is DSTV decoder to watch matches and Mnet series makes it more attractive. Temmy and I decided to be sleeping in the same room instead of separate ones thereby leaving the two other bedrooms empty.

After the dinner, we were watching “The Avengers” when I received a call from Aramide.

Me: Hello twin sis

Aramide: Hello dear, how are you?

Me: I’m fine, now in my PPA

Aramide: You were posted to the company you told me about?

Me: Yeah, Temmy and I.

Aramide: That’s great. Will, mum is ill and it’s very serious

Me: What? What’s wrong with her?

Aramide: I don’t know the nature yet, but she has been admitted into the hospital.

Me: Damn! Will she be okay?

Aramide: She will by God’s grace but she’s asking to see you Will.

Me: She’s asking to see me?

Aramide: Yes

Me: But she knows I’m far away here

Aramide: When are you coming home?

Me: I wasn’t planning to come home anytime soon, we were not given any break.

Aramide: You’ll have to come; she really wants to see you

Me: Menh! This is scary! Okay, I’ll come next tomorrow or by weekend.

Aramide: Why not tomorrow?

Me: I’ve not done my registration and I don’t know how long it’ll take

Aramide: It’ll be better if you come tomorrow

Me: You are scaring me! Okay, I’ll see if I can make it tomorrow.

Aramide: Alright, let me know your movement.[/b]

ChemicalReaction:
Ghen Ghen.. Funmi's in trouble! Babs, why do I feel it's your love story?

Nope, not at all. Not even close to my love story. Some acts there though are what I exactly faced before, especially the camp part. But the story is pure imagination.

Hope you are good?

.

Girls can be so funny, this minute, they want you, the next, they acting crazy.... Reason why I don't really want to get involved with any lady, almost died cause of a heartbreak one time... Right now, I just keep girls on a friendzone level

Nice piece bro

You're so unfair sipping from your cup

I have been there before... it will just look like they pierced your heart with the sharpest object. Don't know whether love really exist.

Guys go after ladies that don't love them and Ladies foolishly do the same too... I can't just start imagining how Will is feeling when he saw the pictures (To add salt to injury, Janet and Ifunanya are no more a potential hunt...) That's why me I don't take chances, I shoot my Joystick at once if given a singular opportunity to be with a lady in #TheOtherRoom (esp when I was a student those days, they call me slow sharp poison)

[b] EPISODE TEN MFYL PR2

My week couldn’t get any more worse with the news that my biological mother is seriously ill. The tone at which Aramide delivered it is very scary and made me want to know what the real situation is.

Temmy: Who is that?

Me: Aramide, she said my mother in serious ill

Temmy: Mum is ill?

Me: My biological mother

Temmy: Oh, what’s the nature of her sickness?

Me: Aramide said she cannot ascertain the nature of the sickness but she’s been admitted in to the hospital.

Temmy: Admitted? It’s that much?

Me: According to her it’s serious and she said my mother is requesting to see me.

Temmy: Then go see her

Me: Yeah I will, but she’s insisting its better tomorrow.

Temmy: Tomorrow? That’s not feasible

Me: That’s what I said but she insisted.

Temmy: That means we have to go to the secretariat earlier tomorrow. We’ll leave afterwards.

Me: How do we get permission?

Temmy: Free that, they can’t expect we’ll start working just like that. One week break from the camp horror is not bad.

Me: I’m really scared bro

Temmy: Don’t be, let’s just pray, I’m sure she’ll recover back. Try to tell Uncle Ben on time.

Me: That will be tomorrow morning

Temmy: Yeah, it’s already late.

Tomorrow soon came and we were the first to arrive at the secretariat which made it easier for us to have our registration as early as 9AM. The only “but” was the bank officials who were not on ground until 10am for the account opening. We left the secretariat and were ready to start moving on our 9 to 11 hours journey if we are to be at the accepted speed limit.

Surprisingly, Uncle Ben gave me two hundred thousand naira to take care of my mother asking me to give him feedback and take my time until she’s fully recovered. Although I felt he thought I’m talking about my mother known to Daddy Orire. All in all, I was happy to have the money but it raised more questions on why Uncle Ben was that nice to me. It looks more that just because Daddy Orire linked me to him, it’s more like he has a special interest. I wish I knew what both he and Daddy Orire are up to.

We were already driving out of the compound when I received a call from Uche.

Me: Hello Uche, how are you?

Uche: I’m fine; you did not call me yesterday evening.

Me: I’m sorry about that, what’s up?

Uche: I’m fine, I had my registration yesterday and I’ve opened the account this morning.

Me: Oh that’s good; we’ve done all that too.

Uche: Are you going home?

Me: Yeah, I have a pressing issue to attend to, we are already moving

Uche: Oh wait! Where are you?

Me: Still in the streets, why?

Uche: I’m currently in the garage; please pick me up when you get there.

Me: Which motor park is that?

Uche: It’s close to that junction you dropped me off that day. I’ll be waiting.

Me: Alright, but we aren’t going to Lagos though

Uche: No problem.

We picked Uche at the described garage and embark on our journey. While on the road, my mum called and said she has heard about my biological mother’s sickness.

Me: Who told you mum?

Mum: Aramide called me and besides I’ve had the feeling something like that might happen.

Me: How do you mean mum?

Mum: When you are back I’ll tell you everything.

Me: Okay mum, I’ll come when I leave the hospital

Mum: No, come home first.

Me: Mum! Aramide said she wanted to see me and that today is the best time. It’s even scary mum; don’t you think I should see her first?

Mum: I know she wanted to see you and I know the reason why, which is why you must come home first

Me: It’ll be late before we get home though

Mum: I know that too, but you must come home first.

Me: Okay mum, I’ve heard you.

Mum: Opeyemi please o, come home first o.

Me: Mum! I’ve heard you really.

Mum: What of Temiloluwa?

Me: He’s the one driving

Mum: Okay, you guys must not speed beyond the limit o. My prayers are with you.

Me: Thanks mum (The line went off). Temmy mum asked me to come home first.

Temmy: Hope there is no problem?

Me: I’m even more confused now

Temmy: She must have her reasons

Me: Sure she does, she is so adamant I must come home first.

Uche: Are you guys going somewhere else?

Me: Yeah, I need to see my mother; she’s ill and admitted into the hospital.

Uche: I don’t understand; your mother asked you to come home first and you want to see your sick mother? I’m lost.

Temmy: Uche you can’t understand yet, maybe later.

Uche: Alright, hope you guys will pass Ore?

Temmy: Sure, you’ll drop there?

Uche: Yeah, I’ll take Lagos bus from there.

Temmy: Alright no problem

Uche’s phone rang and she spoke for a while with mixture of English and Igbo, even Yoruba sometimes. I wish I could speak at least three indigenous languages apart from Yoruba and two more international languages apart from English but no one to guide me. She came off the call and asked for a favour.

Uche: Will I need a favour from you

Me: Alright I’m listening.

Uche: I need a place I can sleep over tonight

Me: Why, what’s wrong?

Uche: My mum just told me nobody will be at home by the time I’ll get home and I won’t be able to get the key until tomorrow.

Me: Oh oh, you did not inform them before you left home?

Uche: I did call them and they told me my brother will be at home but now she said he’s going back to school for an urgent reason.

Me: So how do we go about it?

Uche: You are the man, you suggest

Me: I would have said you should sleep over at our side so we can drop you over at Ibadan when we are leaving tomorrow but that would be like you going backwards.

Uche: So what do you think?

Me: What about we lodge you in a hotel at Ore till tomorrow, so you can board Lagos bus from there.

Temmy: That’s a good idea

Uche: Where do I get money to do that?

Temmy: Don’t worry about that

Uche: Okay, thanks guys, but will I be save there?

Me: Of course you will. We’ll look for a better hotel there

Temmy: I know one that is located close to the Lagos garage. It looks good.

Uche: Okay, thank you so much guys.

I understand the reason why Temmy was in total support of lodging her in a hotel. He knows going home with us will create some after effects especially from my mum. she loves strangers and adore anybody we call friend but she’s been critical of female friends ever since the issue of trying to match make Daddy Orire’s daughter (Lola) and I started. Suddenly all ladies are trying to marry me in her sight. I’ve been looking for ways to make her happy and also be happy but marrying a woman of my choice might make her sad while marrying her choice might dent my dream marriage plan. I know it’s my home and I should be responsible for everything, but I felt my mum might have her reasons which are always or mostly cogent. Apart from that, she’s more mature, more experienced, far more spiritual and I know she can’t push me into fire. I pray God help me so she can like whoever I choose. The current situation with Funmi is not even making it easier because I was planning on introducing her to my mum during this service year but that is just a dream now.

We stopped a little at Benin to have our lunch while I took over the steering from Temmy. Some distance outside Benin not too far from Ore, we met a heavy traffic that took us more than one hour to scale through. It was so annoying to discover the holdup was caused by police men who blocked most part of the road with woods and tyres leaving only a little portion for car to pass in such a way that nobody can move fast. It would have been a little fair if they were not holding some vehicles on the road right there to ask for whatever they are asking for.

Sighting them from afar off, we pulled a fast one by wearing our NYSC caps, though Uche was already fully kitted on “six over seven” (i.e. without the khaki long sleeve shirt). We did that to win some sympathy vote from them, maybe they will respect our uniform and allow us to leave on time, though the vehicle documents are completed and up to date.

Our tactics did work as the police man just hailed us saying “Corpers wee” to which we responded “Waa” as he passed us beside the vehicle in front of us. Moving closer to Ore we started to notice that vehicles coming were having leaves and tree branches hung to their wipers and some to their mirror. The only reason that could happen is if there is riot ahead, most especially students protesting. We stopped by a man selling palm wine on the road and asked him what the situation ahead was like to which he advised us to have some leaves hanged at our wipers and prepare some Naira change to spare because the bike riders are rioting in the town in response to the police killing of one of them over what they said was bribe.

We followed his advice and hung some leaves on the wipers and side mirror as every car behind us followed suit. It was getting late already and I noticed the insecurity feeling from Uche.

Me: Uche what’s wrong? Why are you breathing loudly and periodically?

Uche: I’m fine Will.

Me: Common Uche, tell me what it is

Uche: I’m sorry Will, but can you guys stay with me tonight?

Temmy: What?

Uche: Temmy I’m scared. These people are causing trouble and extorting money from people during the day time, who knows what they’ll do at night.

Me: I believe the hotel will have good security

Uche: Are you sure about that?

Me: They are supposed to; by the way if they can harm you, then staying with you won’t stop them. They’ll probably harm all of us.

Uche: I’m really scared.

Temmy: Will, she’s right, we can’t just leave her here alone.

Me: Well, the only other alternative I know is to follow us down home

Temmy: If she’ll want to

Uche: Why not? I’ll sleep over at your side please. I can’t stay alone in this town.

Me: Okay no problem, I better call mum we are coming with a friend.

Temmy: Nice idea.

So Uche is sleeping over at my place, hmm.[/b]

Thanks guys. I hope you are still finding it interesting, hope my boring life during the time I composed episodes 10-20 is not affecting it (yet)

Please comment. Maybe I should invite Mr Obinnau and Mr Lalasticala.

Lols. Bro I'm a guy who naturally expect the worst but always hope for the best. I'm not entire good myself so I don't expect perfection from people. It'll be hard for my heart to be broken naturally, but it is possible presently.

nice.

Babs, aside that the suspense is killing, you're good to go!

Nice story..but this Will appears to be naïve.

[b] EPISODE ELEVEN MFYL PR2


Goethe, Johan Wolfgang Von said and I qoute, "Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least". At that very moment, Uche's security was a topmost issue above what my mum or any other person might say afterwards. At least I'll be sure she’s safe as leaving her alone there might not give me rest of mind until she eventually gets to her destination.

In the same vein, Goethe taught, "Treat a man as he is and he'll remain as he is. Treat a man as he can and should be and he will become as he can and should be". I've always have bad report against Uche, maybe it's because that's what I chose to see in her, but she deserve to seen with the righteous microscope too. Most times we love people not because they are entirely good but because we chose to see the good in them instead and that I'm going to be doing with her. I'll like to see her good side as I'm sure she's not the 'bad' egg I've always tag her to be.

Getting home, I was ready to protect her against any behavioral bully that might be melted to her but surprisingly, my mother and Debby especially whom I never knew was around, welcome and treated her so nicely. Debby took her to her room to change and have her bath. I dropped Temmy off at his place before coming back home. My mum had prepared meal for us and I met Uche and Debby already eating. My mum was a little upset Temmy did not eat before leaving but she also understood it was late. I had my dinner after which my mum and I excused us to her room leaving Debby and Uche in the sitting room.

Mum: I hope she understands Yoruba?

Me: Very well, she was born and raised in Yorubaland.

Mum: Good, she seems like a good girl.

Me: She is mum, and thanks for allowing her to sleep over.

Mum: You made the right choice dear, I would have been totally angry with you, had you left her there all alone in that situation. You met her on camp right?

Me: No mum, she has always been a friend from school. We studied the same course and she was my project partner.

Mum: Oh, you are that close?

Me: Yes mum, we worked together in the final year.

Mum: Good, even if you didn't know her, I'll still want you to do the same thing. Though one needs to be careful in such situation but we are indebted to God dear. See how God has been using strangers to bless us. You went to a place where we have no relation yet you met with a man that sees you more like a son.

Me: Uncle Ben, mum he's really nice to me.

Mum: That's what I'm Saying, though Daddy Orire linked you to him but he has taken it more than a relation would have done.

Me: He even gave me two hundred thousand naira to take care of my mum, though I'm thinking he thought it's you.

Mum: Even if it's me, have we met before? No. Yet he's doing that. Dear, God has been helping us at all angles and we must always help people too.

Me: Yes ma'am

Mum: Anytime you have, please give to those who lack, help people in every way you can and don't forget "the hand that gives always stay on top".

Me: You've always taught me that mum, and I think it’s part of me now.

Mum: That's good my son, and the God I serve day and night will never leave you.

Me: Amen

Mum: That being said, we need to be very careful of the way we approach situations, we can't be negligent of the devices of the devil.

Me: Mum!

Mum: I know you don't like to hear such things, everything is superstition to you. I don't know if you don't read your Bible.

Me: Mum I read the Bible; I just don't like to be entangled with enemies, witches and wizard of a thing. I believe in God and I know he's sufficient for me.

Mum: Yes he's more than sufficient but have you read where the Bible says we wrestle not against flesh or blood but against powers, principalities and rulers of darkness?

Me: Yes mum, it was in Apostle Paul's letter to the Corinthian church I guess.

Mum: Good, then listen to me. I wish your twin sister is also here.

Me: What's wrong mum?

Mum: I've been having series of wild dreams about both of you. It seems somebody is trying to force you to do something that will later harm you both. Debby also had similar dreams and we've been praying about it since. When your twin sister called to tell me day before yesterday that your mother is sick and has been admitted, I felt so disturbed in my spirit. To make the matter worse, Debby had a dream suggesting she might die.

Me: You are scaring me mum, while will she die?

Mum: Just listen, we went on a marathon prayer after that, which is why you could not reach me on phone yesterday.

Me: So what's the way forward mum?

Mum: Tell your sister, both of you must not do anything fetish. You must not be involved in anything contrary to the Bible which is why I insisted you must come home first.

Me: You know I can't do such mum.

Mum: Yes I know, but you might be forced to do anything if you see your mother dying. Please I beg you in the name of God, your children will listen to you, don't do anything suspicious okay.

Me: Okay mum, I'm scared though.

Mum: Don't be, just call me first before you do anything.

Me: Surely I'll do that (my phone rang and it's Aramide). It's Aramide

Mum: Pick it, maybe I can speak with her. (I picked the call)

Me: Hello Aramide

Aramide: Will, where are you?

Me: I'm at home now, I'll get to you tomorrow

Aramide: Oh, I was expecting you today.

Me: It's late before I got home.

Aramide: Will, she's getting worse and I'm scared

Me: Cool down dear, I'll join you soon okay. He the doctors Saud anything about what's wrong with her?

Aramide: No, they kept saying all the results came negative. They are transferring her to teaching hospital tomorrow.

Me: Damn! Where were you before?

Aramide: One private hospital like that. It's was my father that brought her there.

Me: I'll prefer they transfer her to teaching hospital so they can carry out necessary test to ascertain what is wrong. I don't believe in all those result came negative scam.

Aramide: But my father is saying no

Me: Why?

Aramide: He said teaching hospital is too costly, that he'll take her to his native doctor.

Me: Native what? (My mum snatched the phone from me)

I could hear her telling Aramide never to allow him do that. She told her to insist on going to teaching hospital before she gave the phone back to me.

Aramide: Hello Will, what should I do? I'm really scared.

Me: Listen Aramide, meet the doctor in charge tonight if you can, first thing tomorrow morning, transfer her to the teaching hospital. I would have prefer tonight self.

Aramide: But there's no money to do that.

Me: What's of Vera?

Aramide: She's here

Me: Good, I'll transfer fifty thousand naira to you now. Ask her to withdraw it very early tomorrow. By the time I come, we'll settle the remaining bill.

Aramide: Okay Will. My father has already settled the bill here.

Me: Alright, please call me if there are any changes. I'll meet you there tomorrow morning.

Aramide: Okay Will (the line went off)

Mum: You see what I was telling you? I know something is not right

Me: Funny, how can doctors say they can't see anything, not even abnormal temperature?

Mum: We'll keep praying; she will live.

I hate and detest superstition with all vehement. In fact that anything religion or fetish is a no for me. I am a spiritual being not a religious one. Religion has blocked so many people's rational thinking ability to the extent they cannot think right again. I'm happy my Jesus hates religion which was why he's always against the activities of the Pharisee and the Sadducee of this world that are chronic religionist whitewashed and blindly believe in rituals and sacrifices instead of doing the right thing.

How on earth can someone refuse an equipped teaching hospital to native doctor who would probably asked them to buy goats and what have you to be sacrificed to a useless stiff, deaf and dumb, Carpenter created statue they call god. Well, the worst enemy a man will ever fight against is himself.

I transferred the money to Aramide and gave Temmy update on when we'll move the following morning.

I've already had my bath and was going to call Temmy when Debby knocked and entered.

Debby: BB good morning

Me: Good morning sweetheart, how was your night?

Debby: Wao! You called me sweetheart

Me: I don't call you that before?

Debby: I've never heard you saying it, or I can't remember.

Me: You should know you are my sweetheart now, my second love.

Debby: Really? Who's the first?

Me: My mum of course, I knew her before you came around.

Debby: Hmm, I thought it is aunty Uche

Me: Oh oh, where is that coming from?

Debby: Is she not your girlfriend?

Me: No, she's only a friend

Debby: She's nice though

Me: Really? You know that in just one night?

Debby: Yes, she's been friendly and homely. She even helped me to wash the dishes yesterday and sweep the floor this morning.

Me: Common Debby, that's not right! She only sleeps over here. Damn! How can you allow your guest to work?

Debby: BB she insisted. We did it together

Me: I see why you said she's nice.

Debby: It's not just because of that, she's really nice and I like her. Mum seems to like her too.

Me: Mum is only being nice the way a mother should be.

Debby: Believe me; she's nicer to her. They've been talking since.

Me: They are talking?

Debby: Yeah, she'll come back right?

Me: I don't know o. Hope she has freshen up and ready to move?

Debby: Since. You better date her on time before mum remember Daddy Orire's anonymous daughter.

Me: Funny both of you. Excuse me, I need to call Temmy.

We embarked on the journey and entering the teaching hospital premises, we discovered they were yet to move there as we could not sight them where we should. We headed back to the described hospital after dropping Uche off at the motor Park and met a rather shocking scene. [/b]
