AGONIES OF A HOUSE HELP PART 1 . PROLOGUE Slavery is barbaric no matter the name we give it. No matter the terms by which we justify it, it is inhumane and satanic. The way many madams treat their househelps leaves much to be desired in the eyes of an honest observer. What brings about such hatred to warrant such maltreatment, I do not know. In most cases, the househelp is a young child, treated like an animal, segregated like a disease and punished like a vagabond for no just reason. Agonies of a househelp is a touching story of wickedness, slavery, savagery and barbarism meted out to Adaeze when she went to serve her madam as househelp… . ADAEZE NARRATES… . Life has been unfair to me right from the start. Born into a family of ten: 3boys and 5girls plus mum and dad, survival had been a struggle. My father was a palm wine tapper and my mum was a petty trader who dealt in foodstuffs. We lived in a remote village somewhere in the South-eastern part of Nigeria. My father’s palm wine tapping didn’t earn him much and even after combining with the proceeds of my mum’s petty trading, my parents still couldn’t afford 3square meals to sustain the family. I was the first child; followed by a male then females before the two last males. I never went to school even for a day. None of us did. Then disaster struck. My father went for his usual palm wine tapping business and never came back. On dispersal of a search party, it turned out that he fell from the palm tree and died on the spot. This sudden death of my dad launched my family into more terrible hardship and my mum couldn’t cope. Things grew worse after my dad’s burial and it became necessary for my mum to send us out to live with different people in the city. At that time I was 15years old and my immediate younger brother was 13. It was my late father’s sister that brought up the suggestion to my mother and my mother quickly bought the idea and soon had me introduced to my madam. In a matter of days, the whole arrangement was concluded and I followed my madam back to the city of Enugu. The first few days, I was treated well maybe because it was my first day of arrival. I was shown around the house, taught how to use some of the appliances, I was also shown the little room that was to be my room and also the small mattress that was to be my mattress. Then I settled in my new home with hope that things would move fine and my madam won’t have any reason to send me home prematurely… .

DIARY OF A LEKKI HOUSE BOY PART 1 . NewTwitterNotification: “Danlad wassup?, You coming to the GIG at Michael’s house?” This was a DM(DirectMessage) I got from Asamoah on the 24th of december 2012. Asamoah whom I call “A$AP Blackey” was my very first Ghanian friend, he was tall, dark(y’all know) and he was from a rich background, 4th and the only son out of the family of 8 (5kids, 2wives, 1Husband). At 17(same age as I was), Asamoah already knew how to drive as he blackmailed the drivers into giving him car keys to go anywhere he wanted. Cut the details short, he was a spoilt brat lost in a Garden city belonging to victoria (VGC). Michael was Asamoah’s snr in school (Greensprings to be precise). Did I tell you how endowed asamoah’s sisters were? I don’t know how they do the magic but Ghanian girls rock!!!!!!!. Well, back to reality . Me: “Dude, I am broke, my Uncle travelled and I got no Tfare, talkless of tickets to enter Micheal’s party” Asamoah: ”Lol! Ur 419 uncle don run from EFCC again? No worry, I go come pick you, and ticket is a Boy n a Girl” Asamoah: “Abeg I beg you, no carry babe wey u get feelings for come oh!, heard there will be pools and lotta empty rooms” Asamoah: “Sha check the details @ my last tweet” At this point, as a young cultured boy from a humble home, I was wondering: “what type of event centre do pools and rooms?”. Mind you, I attended a government school(Secondary) somewhere in Ajah, Lagos. Recently moved in with my uncle to assist him in his business, and the only time I got to touch the Steering of his Honda EOD and Toyota Prado was when I was washing the cars. Trust me, I wash car sotey I almost went to PEAK Talent show to showcase my car washing talent . Ohh! Did I tell you that Kida Kudz was Michael’s buddy? However, the new question now is: “How Did I get to associate with these rich kids?” Lol!, Shoutout to RCCG City Of David parish and Jesus Embassy Parish. If you know those churches, you will understand my point. And when I role with my uncle (who stays in a neighbouring estate on lekki expressway), you will think am one hell of an Ajebota(Born with Silver spoon). (Back to convo) Me: Aiite Bro, but abeg you go borrow me that your Christian Louboutin shoes oh! Which of d event centres tho? Asamoah: Ahaha! Charlie, I go bring Chucks for you jare. And its at Micheal’s house. Him papa don travel, e mama na soji woman” Like seriously? How spoilt can these kids be? Na me go get mind host party for my Papa house? Abi na my mama go gree make I invite friends for party? Well, as a comfirm Edo boy, I arranged, packaged and ironed my characters. Was about replying when MTN sent me a message that I exhausted my MB(I wished they sent it earlier!!!!!!), then I used the last 10naira to message Asamoah. “MB don finish oh Guy, abeg help me arrange any greensprings girls.. I no wan carry classmates wey dey on lowcut go dia fah. And when u come, shout well well make my uncle wife hear you say “Today is a special Xmas Eve hosted by the City Of David’s Youth! Why you never bath?”. Charlie abeg no fall my hands!! OUTTAHERE!” Then I dropped my Nokia X2 asap, ran to do the chores (Please if you are a married woman, married to a wealthy man, don’t ever treat his siblings/Family Badly. Abeg!!!) . Even with my Uncle wife’s 3 sisters[Esther(22),Faith(18),Abigail (16)] around, I still had to do the works, while they behave like they started from the bottom with my uncle. Hence, the reason I started calling myself the Lekki Houseboy. Definitely not a cool experience I tell you. Seeing your uncle being controlled by some woman because her Dad is a major contract provider, and ME, that came to chop company money now being used as houseboy.. Chaiiii! .

MERLIN SEASON 6 (Fictional) PART 1 . In The Land Of Myth And The Time Of Magic, The Destiny Of A Great Kingdom Rest On The Shoulder Of A Young Boy……… His Name *****MERLIN**** . The Once and Future King – scene 1 On the shore of the lake sits Merlin. He wears still the same clothes, they are wet and dirty. His hair is sopping and sticking on Merlin’s head. He sits on the shore, unshaved and looks at the isle. The sun rises, above all is a humid haze. In the background the king’s tent is buildt. Gaius stands behind Merlin, his hand holds the reins of his horse. He looks sadly down to his friend. For a moment he looks up to the isle and then his look goes back to Merlin: “Merlin… Merlin, can you hear me?” No reaction of Merlin. His eyes are still fixed on the isle, as would he scan every tree every stone on that isle. He is looking for somebody.. Gaius puts his free hand on Merlin’s shoulder. Merlin’s head turns towards Gaius, his eyes are empty. With a sigh Gaius says: “Merlin, it can’t go on in that way. Look at you!” Merlin looks down on himself. Gaius adds: “You are completely soaked and wet and dirty.. you will get a cold! They buildt up a tent, so why don’t you sleep inside?” Merlin smiles: “It doesn’t matter, i’m not leaving my job. I’m a servant, i sleep outside the king’s tent.” Gaius shakes his head: “Merlin, the king is gone. It was three month ago as Artur passed the lake. He is gone, he is dead. He won’t return.” Merlin stands up: “No, he is alive. I know it. And he will return.” Gaius shakes his head again. He makes a step forward to hug Merlin. He holds him, he begs: “Come home with me. I need you, Gwen needs you, Albion needs you, please.” Merlin just enjoys the close moment to his mentor, he wispers: “You know I can’t, I promised him to wait..” Gaius takes his arms down. He looks into Merlin’s exhausted face: “Merlin, i have to go. You know I can’t stay with you. I have to return to the queen.” Merlin only nods. He looks back to the isle: “I know.” Gaius follows his view: “Please Merlin, look after yourself. Take a bath, shave your face, wash your clothes..” Merlin nods again, then he lookks to his king’s tent: “Just after polishing the amour, sharpening the sword, washing Arthur’s clothes and cleaning Arthur’s boots” Gaius sighs :”Merlin, you did all these yesterday..” Merlin turns to Gaius: “This is my job. I’m the king’s manservant.” Gaius shakes his head again, he turns towards his horse. Over his shoulder he looks back to Merlin: “Goodbye Merlin” Merlin smiles: “See you in Camelot next time.” Then Merlins turns towards the isle. His eyes are emty, his view is fixed on that isle in the middle of the lake. He is looking for somebody, he is looking for his king. .
