[quote author=jagugu88li


Creeza.....its either the title is literal or figurative. Literally, Kate dies leaving Gabe with the worst heartache, the sins of Dummylola literally playing a role in their breakup catching up with her too. Dave being taken care of by the childless couple.

Figuratively, Kate survives and everyone comes clean, either Gabe confessing or otherwise. Kate forgives Gabe but stops seeing him as husband. They co- parent Dave, Dummy visits babalawo, turns Gabe into a floor rag and he lives miserably ever after.

*runs out of thread before #TeamGabe kills her*[/quote]I had to bold that part grin

lets cross our fingers, or rather still, let me get my fingers dirty and start typing....

this story is getting more interesting.....

but Efua should have taken precaution earlier...

why she is so comfortable in unknown men's lodge? she stayed too long for my liking

she should have arranged with one of her church members who are ladies

And to Izi...what is Ade mission?

Enjoy my popcorn dear for more energy in your writing cool

Ade? Adesina? grin , IM SORRY for the coincidence, check the disclaimer.

Hmmm, so Andy really wants her to miscarry. What is this Andy' problem?

But if it is Andy, are the thugs that daft to call his name in front of her, or is this a set up?

BTW, who else knows that she is pregnant?
how many people, do you remember?
Kate's entire family?
Andy and Gabe?

LiteratureRe: Slaves In The Soul : A Novelette by Creeza(op):
Continues*


Efua




I flipped the Bible pages ,I had two more chapters to go, out of my daily plan.I had to be in bed afterwards, then prepare for work the next morning.

I looked up and saw both of them .The unrepentant sinner and the calm Uyi. They looked like they had woke up from sleep, or they never slept at all, thinking about something all through the night, and couldn't wait to executive their plans.
Something was wrong. What could it be?


*Uyi , why is your face like that? And Nosa, he was always the grumpy ,sinister type ,no need to wonder. The thought nearly escaped my mouth.



" What is it? I finally asked , with surprise written boldly on my face. I literally saw it .



" We want that thing ... " Uyi said harshly , scratching the back of his head.



I paused and put the Bible down on the table. Nosa leeannnned forrrrward , frowned his face and rettrreatted slooowlyyyyy. I nearly froze as the motion and my heart leapt.

" Which thing? I asked now scared than surprised.

" We know you are pretending, " Nosa said, and Uyi nodded , then the former continued " All this , sister Mary, mother Theresa, Saint Efua, all this thing --"


" I rebuke you in the na-"



" If you like re-book and re-pencil us from now till tomorrow " Uyi said with a frown " Efy ,you must give us that thing.. Yes .. There" he pointed to my laps, without remorse what soever.


I shut it tightly and covered my skirt till it touched my toes( if the floor beneath would permit, I would go even further). This had been my fear, and it finally came .
The both of them , the unrepentant sinner and his new convert, looked at each other , probably planning their attack . I had nowhere to run , this was not supposed to happen.


All of a sudden , Nosa nodded and looked at me, then back to Uyi.

" Grab her legs, I'll go first" He blurted out.
Uyi launched forward and I could imagine what he had in mind, whatever happened to guys when they wanted to rape a girl.

" No...No... Stop , don't".


I struggled as sweat broke from every part of my body. I screamed so loud and jerked as I threw my feet and arms up in the air to put up a fight.

Then I woke up. It was only a dream. Sweat broke out from every pore on my skin, my night wear became sticky due to its linen material. I gasped for air .

" It was only dream.. Thank God.


Fear gripped me, and I shook allover. I pulled my blanket up to the chest and looked round the room to make sure no one hid anywhere,even behind the curtains.


" Efua .. Efua are you okay? " Uyi 's voice came as he knocked on the door. " I heard you scream , are you OK in there?


" I'm fine ", I replied, now afraid of him .


He might also be a wolf in sheep's clothing . No wonder he was so kind to me. No,no !! I snapped out of the thought .he was a gentleman, I knew he was harmless. He was always listening to my preachings.



" Open the door.. Efua" he requested as his voice increased.


" Don't worry , I'm fine , It was just a nightmare " I clutched my night gown, tightly ,but then he knocked again,this time he commanded me to open the door.



I sprung up from the bed and clutched my night gown ,my arms covered my chest . I undid the lock and jumped backwards unto the bed, forced myself into a corner, ready for anything,

If he tries anything funny, I'll break his head* I thought, then a voice said in me " Where is your faith, Oh yee child of God ? Relax.



" Are you sure you are fine" he said as he entered." you are sweating allover " He shut the door calmly.



Eh? You came in and shut the door. ? What do you want? I thought and covererd my body with the blanket .



" its nothing, you can leave" I said " Im fine"

" No you are not" He began " I can stay here if you wa---"



" Eh?- no ! no! You can't -- " I shook my head like a robot, I rejected the idea outrightly .


Stay and do what? you are joking. I wish I had said that.
He stood there, tried coming nearer and retreated after he saw how scared I was.



" OK .. Lock the door " His eyes pryed into my bosom and I covered it firmly , no part was left visible. He left and I ran immediately to the door.


I bolted back after locking it, and fell to the bed, shivers went down my spine.What kind of problem was this ? I couldnt think straight anymore.

I bent down my head in prayers.


" Father , in the name of Jesus, I come against.."






Iziegbe




The doctor gave me a last minute checkup and ticked something in her chart.



" You are good to go, " she said and took off her gloves.

I got up from the bed and put on the jacket , Kechi had brought me. My gown was a new one bought the previous day, and I just couldnt wait to go back to the hostel and escape hospital stench, it was very strong to my nostrils.


" Don't forget to give her ,her medicines" The doctor reminded Kechi, who packed my belongings and whatever that was still useful.



" Thanks doc.. " Kechi said and crossed the one -armed bag on her shoulders.

We walked out into the lobby, and my legs were still shaky, especially where that mad man " Aisose " had cut me . I was limping but strong enough to walk.



We made it to the reception and I kept quiet all along.

" Okay -- take care ,nurse " Kechi bade the nurse on duty farewell as we made it to the front of the building. we were outside when, I saw a familiar figure . It had to be the man who had saved me.




He came right at us " Are you strong enough to be discharged? He asked




" Who are you , please ? I asked ,brushing off his arms from my shoulder.

I never liked being touched by strangers.



"Oh, I'm sorry " He began" I forgot we haven't officially met _, I'm --"

" He is the guy that brought you in" Kechi interfered.
Oh , No wonder ! His features were striking. His biceps and his chest was awesome. He was really my guardian angel. Nothing more!



" I'm sorry, for the way I acted -- sorry.. And thanks for saving me, that night. I appreciate "


He smiled and pat me on the shoulders . Then he brought out his palms " I'm Adeleke Ade, Lieutenant, third squadron , First command in the platoon and seventh battalion of the Nigerian Air force, Benin base."

Oh God!! I just got myself a military officer as a friend, I blushed and shook him too, his palms were somewhat rough and dark. Though he didn't put on any camouflage, you could tell he was either military or paramilitary.



" Izzy Ehisojie " I said " Student , Sociology and Anthropology, third year, Faculty of social sciences, UniBen"


My portfolio was something too, so I became proud temporarily.

He asked about my health and I replied, then he looked at Kechi, who was afraid of him .I suspected they hadn't met on a good note.



" And this is my friend Kechi " I pointed her direction. " She is an Anatomy stude-"



" We met already, and she is the talkie type " Ade said and took off his shades.
His eyes was so white.


We stood there and I was waiting for him to say something, still waiting for Kechi to say something,.. There was tension in between the three of us.



" Let me give you a ride" Ade said and took the bags from Kechi.



" No , we'll manage " Kechi said and took the bags back. " We are waiting for someone"



" yes , we are waiting for someone" I seconded and smiled sheepishly .



He stared at us blankly. His arms fixed into his pockets. " At least let me make sure you get home safely"


" We are waiting for Dani, right ? I turned to Kechi..
She nodded still gazing at Ade. He brought out his phone and gave it to me.

"Okay. Let me have your number" he said


" sure ! I typed in my number with the virtual keyboard.
See me see whahala! The thought ate me up.
This guy was going to be a pain the ass, I knew it deep down within me, I already got beat up for dishing guys on the first day of meeting. I wouldnt take another chance, and this was a military officer, except he was lying.

His own punishment for me would be far worse than Aisose's if I bleeped up. I couldn't take that chance.

Gabriel



The night wind howled and I could hear a whisper of its movement, even from a mile away. It was those kind of nights in the harmattan when, people either committed suicide or they get killed by even fearless humans.The pattern was always the same- the strong preyed on the weak and the food chain never grew out of supply.


I stood there at her doorway and my mind flew to different dimensions.Why not end it here, and now? What's holding you back? This lady had become a thorn in your flesh!!. I just couldn't, I wasn't a murderer, and I won't become one.



" I knew you'd come back! " Damilola said, she smiled and drank from her cup , crossed her legs and flickered the TV set with the control in her arm.




" Tell me Gabe" she continued and stood up, she came forward, " Do you think am stupid?




* maybe ! I thought and clutched my fist behind me, ready to land a punch into her pretty face when she was within range.


" Obviously you thought, I was mad. Fine, I had hallucinations and I saw -- " She paused and went back.

Dammit !!! Just a few inches away, she was lucky, I loosened my fist.



" I forgot, Oh yes...I never told you this before. " She poured another glass of red wine." The man I saw was Tayo! " She blurted out.



I froze internally and my blood rushed like a tap which has lost its handle and gone wild. The facts were all falling in place, every tiny piece started merging into a clearer picture. I wanted to grab her neck and break it into a thousand pieces. She could also have a hand in his ordeal, maybe she was right after all, but who made an attempt on my life?



" Why would you see him? What connections do you have with Tayo? He--" I said with hidden anger , when she interrupted

.
" He was trying to warn me, Yes " She said " He tried to warn me about that Andy guy. Oh ! " She paused ,noticed my reactions and smiled. " I know he has been unto Kate for some time now, how cheap.I had him under surveillance. He tried to murder you, Gabe he is behind all this that is happening and he even plans to do away with---"




I went foward and grabbed her on the neck, squeezed it tightly and I breamed with anger " Why don't I start by killing you first,then he comes next . The both of you have ruined my life... "


" I'm not-- uh, st--op, you are... " She groaned with pain.


"Dami, I'm not here to listen to crap,.. Why did you freeze my account? Why the fvck are you toiling with me?


She gasped for air, and hit me hard on the shoulders, the cup in her hand fell to the floor and shattered.




" Gabe, you are-- uhuh - Hurt--ing me" She struggled to break free.



Someone came running into the living room. It was her maid, Bisi and she screamed.



" Keep quiet" I barked still choking Dami " Or else you'll be next"

Dami struggled and I felt life escape her.
Suddenly, I let go and fell into the chair, I couldn't do it, why couldn't I?



**" Was she worth it,? Huh? I bet her pus&y was a gold mine--- " Kate's voice echoed into my head. **

Killing Dami won't solve issues, it would complicate them. On the floor, Dami gasped for air and her maid ran to her. both shuddering on the floor, as I scared them .


" I don't care how you did it, but before the night is over. I want all my accounts reactivated ..."

She told me it wasnt possible, even in pain she still had pride, and gave me options, I had to take it or leave it.


" Marry you? " I shook my head" You have really lost it, you are mad" I yelled out making sure my voice echoed deep into her ear " You hear me, You are mad"


She looked at me with a red eye, bloodshot and angry.
I raised my arm up and threw a punch in mid air, but I paused and she hid her face in fear.

Good , I scared the poo out of you. The thought was self rewarding.


I bolted into the night with my car and drove all the way home. The next morning, I was up and kicking even before the co£k crowed, I had seen it all and change was about to occur, I realised that wealth without the ones you loved and cared for, was hell on earth . I had to settle things with my wife, I went straight to her house .



" Mama , where is Kate? I asked Ma Nneka as I climbed out of the vehicle. She nearly took to her heels when she saw me ,she thought I wanted to harm her.

" Please , its important I find her. Her life might be-- Mama please ,this is serious, I know I'm not the best son in law,but I've realised my mistakes. Trust me on this, I've changed"

She stared blankly at me and sat down in the chair at their veranda. She heaved a sigh of relief.



" She just left now, " Ma Nneka replied.




" Where? Please talk to me " I was impatient.


" She went to pick up David from your sister's house . Gabe , I hope nothing is wrong.why as you sweating like a sacrificial lamb? She asked ,noticing my energy.



I couldn't explain anything at the moment, I wanted to settle issues with Kate. I had to tackle the problems squarely this time and it felt like my only chance to redeem my sins. If only I had listened to Johnson , this wouldn't have escalated to where it was.

I thanked Mama for her info and catapulted again out of the compound, raising dust in the air. Time flew, and I had to battle against it ,to the finish line.






Katherine





I embraced her like it was my last. I wiped the tears off my eyes and she assured me that things would be okay, no mater how bad it had become, even the wrong decisions we had taken-- Good will always prevail.

Gabe's mum was such a kind hearted woman and I wondered if Gabe had been adopted , he was entirely different from this woman. Well, he was a man with choices. I regretted having pushed him away though, but it served as a lesson for men of his kind : value what you have , not until you loose it.

I took my hand bag from the veranda rail, I kissed my son's forehead and smiled at Yvonne who was under Maxwell arm as they stood at the porch -- they looked so lovely together. Even without children of their own.



" Honey " I turned to Dave " I'll be back soon OK. Be good to Grandma"


" Cant I come too? " He asked squeezing his mouth



" Don't be naughty OK, I will buy you sweets and toys "



" Deal? He asked and raised his five palms .


I smiled and brushed his hair gently. " Go to your aunt, Yvonne." I pushed him to move.



I turned but my heart wanted otherwise, it felt like that would be the last time I'd see him. I couldn't let go of the feeling . why did I feel that way?


" Dave ," I called him and ran back to the Porch , climbed and hugged him warmly , his head rested on my abdomen. Tears trickled down my cheeks.

I couldn't understand why men were so wicked and heartless , I gave my life to my husband , I gave him a happy home, but in return he gave me sadness and pain.


That's life for you Kate. An inner voice said.

Mama interfered "That's OK, before you both make me cry " she hugged us and unexpectedly, tears ran down her cheek, every drop was heartfelt and emotional.
Gabriel had really messed up, he messed up in the sight of man and God. Only a miracle would save him now.



I left reluctantly, and walked towards the bustop, I would be very busy at the market and Maxwell won't have the patience to wait for me,he had other things to do. I advised him to stay with his family.

The cloud started to get dark and wind gushed from different angles , I wasnt generally afraid, so I quickened my steps to a nearby corner, to evade the dust haze that swam behind ,towards me. Zincs that were loose started rattlng- louder with every clank.

I fidgetted , but I was now left alone in the bare street, everyone had ducked from the unfavourable whether. It was a harsh harmattan morning as the dust was incredible

" really strange and scary " I tried to get my mind off it. I clutched my jacket and touched my abdomen, I was afraid for my baby. I took a few steps and tried to forget my fear. Then came a loud whisper of wind , it sent debris into the air and blindfolded the clouds.


Across the street, on the other side of the dusty road, something came running towards me. I quickened my steps , but it was faster.

What could it be?

Suddenly it stopped in its tracks, my heart pounded in fear, I said a silent prayer as I feared it might be someone. I was already sure, there was somebody with me , but I could not see who it was.


" who ' s there? I asked as the dark alley stared back at me, it was in between two tall buildings which outdid the rays of sun . I took a deep breathe " Who is there?


" Run... Run... Kate run " An inner voice commanded.


I took off my shoes and bolted ,but it was fast , whatever it was , it came running towards me, the ground shook under my feet, a rumble like something had fallen to the floor. All of a sudden it yanked itself into the air, right above my head.
It was a cat, which had probably been scared as the wind summer slammed into its hideout creating that rumbling sound ,of a trashcan falling to the ground.


" blasted cat!! " I screamed out. " Jesus !!!


I sighed a relief and put my shoes back on.
My heart pounded and I regained my breathe " That was close " . I took a turn to the left.



Suddenly, a strong arm covered my mouth, """ mmmmm" I groaned out and struggled , I twisted and tried to break free..

My captors were three , all masked ,the first one brought out a phone



" Hello, Andy ... Yes we have her, no problem boss"



He told his subordinates what the procedure was and I wept bitterly as no one was in sight to help me. They tied my mouth.


Slowly and painfully, they hit my head with a baton , and then again, and again, till my forehead broke and blood covered my face. My brain and memory lost communication with each other, numbers became words and words turned into Roman figures .



" mmm-- huhuhhhhhargghhhh" I groaned in pain as they threw punches to my jaw, the first and the second, then two more after those.

I gasped for air, and my head was heavy, I prayed for my son and committed my spirit into God's hand.




A car stopped right at my finger tips and my blood which had trickeled down the road, splashed as the car screeched.



" Kate... Kate ... " A voice screamed out , it was familiar and I was happy.

" At least I could see his face once more " I thought and gasped for air, and then.....
