Episode 6

The following morning, the nurse came again. She was wearing a black crop top and a pair of tight shorts. It was already 7:20 am when she arrived and Ijego was still sleeping. The nurse could see through the car.
She glanced at the back and saw that the boy was up already. She waved at him indicating that should wake Ijego but he didn't.

She simply ignored the boy and knocked on the driver's side of the car jolting ijego back from his deep sleep. He quickly arose, alerted but he calmed when he saw who it was. He would have laughed at his silliness but he kept calm and quickly unlocked the door.

When he got out of the car, he  stretched himself to shake off the sleep still in his eyes before he stretched forth his hand to greet the nurse.

"Good morning nurse," he said as he tried to smile.

"Good morning Mr Ijego. How was your night and how's the boy?"she asked as she withdrew her hand.

"Let's find out," he said as he turned and opened the door for her.

The boy was visibly scared of the nurse and he continued to move away whenever she tried to touch him.
"Don't worry boy I would not hurt you. My name is Phylucia and I am a nurse- I am here to help you," she said as she gave him a smile.

The boy still continued to move back until he was at the door.
"Move away!" He said barely audible.

Phylucia backed away to face Ijego. She gave him the 'I don't know what is wrong with your friend' look which he understood.

Ijego tried talking to the boy but in turn the boy began to scream on top of his voice as tears streamed from his eyes.

Ijego quickly got into the car and locked the door. He was now really pissed. His brown large eyes were almost flaming and anger were written all over his face.

Seeing how angry Ijego had gotten, the boy stopped shouting but began whimpering as he expected a violent reaction.

"Now look at me little boy- I don't care who you are and I don't want to know. But I swear on my left ball that-that if you by any chance cause me trouble or get me into trouble by attracting eyes to us with your screams then I would silence you forever. You understand that?" He fumed angrily.

The boy nodded nonplussed.

Ijego observed the boy for a moment and began to speak again but with a calmer tone, "my name is Ijego and I found you almost dead in my house and so I brought you here and with the help of this nurse and her friends you were treated. Now tell me, 'is screaming the best way to show gratitude to people that saved your life?'"

"N-n-no it is not," the boy said feeling the bandages and pad on his neck.

"Good- or are you trying to bring trouble to me for saving your life?"

"I'm sorry about that."

Ijego took a deep breath and said calmly, "I know that you might feel that you are in some kind of danger and I understand that you do not know who I am and you are scared too. All  I want is for you to stay calm and act nice. I wouldn't hurt you at all- though I could have left you for dead if I had wanted to but I didn't, With that you should see that I am not going to hurt you that's why the nurse is here. So, boy be nice and let her do her job. You understand me?"

The boy nodded as if saying 'please lion do not eat me. I am ready to do what you ask of me.'

Ijego got down from the car.

 Phylucia, seeing that the boy looked calmer went into the car to complete the check up.

She checked him for signs of any seizure and found non. She gave him some analgesic to ease up the pains on the neck and some other parts he might be feeling Any pains as well.

"You are expected to be fine before sunset. But continue taking this drugs until the wound is completely healed," she said handing a container of analgesics to the boy.
"Be nice kid and don't make your friend mad again," she concluded, getting down from the car.

"I'm through Mr Ijego," she said.

"I can't thank you enough nurse for sparing your time to come here. It's really nice of you."

"Oh! You are welcomed. I came by because I was off for the day."

"Alright," Ijego said as he tried to get open the car.

"Here, call me if you need my  Help," she said handing him a card that bore her phone number . Then  she jogged off.

Ijego got into the car and turned it on, a grin had already registered in his face.
"I am taking us to a safer place. There you will tell me everything about yourself little boy," he said to the boy driving off.
