STORY SO FAR.......

After roaming the street for close to an hour, they saw a sign post which read " THE SANCTUARY OF PRAISE ".
" very good!, i think this one go make sense! " James whispered to Peter.
" and fine fine girls go dey this church! " Peter chuckled.
With that they started tracing the exact location of the church.
They took their far right following the arrow that was placed at every bend to serve as a pointer for those that were coming to the church for the first time.
After turning two more bends they came face to face with the church.

" oboy eh! " James screamed unconsciously.
" Bloooooooood of Ebuka!!! " Peter joined in the exclamation. The two friends folded their hands and looked at the church with their mouths wide open. They have never seen a church that was smelling of class like this one before them.

The gate of the church was wide open. And from the gate of the church to the church auditorium were two rolls of flowers. There was a small roundabout some meters before the auditorium, and flowers where planted roundabout it too. There was an " n " shaped flower that crossed from one side of the gate to the other side. Even the door of the church had a similar " n " shaped flower ranging ten meters from the church door. There was a massive car park that can contain nothing less than 500 cars.
They move closer to the church door. The door opened on its own which resulted to the two of them running back in fright. " chei! See american wonder! " one of them shouted in awe.
They composed themselves and approached the door again, this time when the opened on its own they did not run back. They stepped into the auditorium and was more thrilled by the interior than they were at the exterior.
They would've stood there the whole if not for the timely intervention of one of the church official that tapped them on their shoulder. Actually the lady had been standing in front of them for about a minute but because these two were so lost in the splendor of the environment, they did not notice that someone was standing in front of them, so the lady had to tap them to get their attention.
She led them to a seat at the back roll of the church.

The Interior of the church was magnificent to say the least. The seats were arranged in rolls like a theatre. The church had a slope like the one in obafemi awolowo university. It was has a white marble wall and the decoration was a simple touch of white and green since it was an independence day. The choir was putting on a white suit and green tie. And were sitting at the left hand side of the church. The ministers were all on a white suit too.
All the instruments were positioned close to the choir. The had several instruments. A motif piano and a yamaha cork seven octave piano, a cello, violin, bass guitar, tuning fork, drumsets, trumpets, saxophone etc. The stand was like an orchestra stand.

They were distracted by the voice from the walls Before they could figure out what was going on. " oboy na where this sound dey come from?, because i no dey see any speaker " Peter called his friend's attention to his discovery

" will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, wherein have we robbed thee?. In tithes and offerings.

Ye are cursed with a curse, for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

And i will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground, neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts... "

James and peter heard the man on the altar saying.
" this must be the man in charge of this church. " they thought.

" bring out your tithes and offerings, you know that they Which sow sparingly, will reap sparingly and they Which sow bountifully, will also reap bountifully. So package your offerings very well and put on your dancing shoes, choir please give us a danceable song and lets rock to the glory of the LORD " the man concluded with a smile.

These two have not been to church before, they were just passing by when some breeze blew them into the church, but what we don't know, is the nature of the breeze that blew them into the church.

Just like a MIRACLE a lady's voice was heard in the background and before they could comprehend what was going on, the whole church came alive.
The choir was singing " oh happy day " and the lead soloists had a soprano voice.
Before their very eyes, people were giving both naira and dollar as offering.

" i don die, this girl voice sweet die!, and see how people dey give money like sey this country no hard! " James whispered to Peter.

" na so i see am o! " Peter replied.
When the offering basket got to them James almost grabbed the basket and run away, the only thing that stopped him was the fact that some people were standing close to the door.
.........

" oboy that church get money! " Peter screamed on their way back to the house after the service had ended.
" i been no know sey dem fit give person wey come church food to chop, if not, i for no dey waste my time for house. Na for church i for dey take my morning food " Peter added.

" guy!, no be that one dey my mind, you see the way that money plenty?. If i fit get that money, my problems don solve. " James replied with a serious look on his face.

** 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.

Story so far..........

The noise of people rushing to early morning mass woke up the two sleepers that were occupying a four bedroom apartment inside the luxurious bus.

It was peter that woke up first before James followed suit. At first, they were oblivious of their present environment.
" oboy na where we dey? " peter asked his friend James. It was obvious that he was still suffering from hangover.

" na house we dey nah! " James screamed likesomeone that had an encounter with insanity.

" but from my angle of depression, e be like say this place no be house, " Peter replied moving towards the exit point of the luxurious bus.

" e bi like say you don dey see thing, and i sure say you don high. This na our house for inside our compound. " James countered.
It was when Peter got to the exit and looked outside that he discovered that it was not a fraction of his imagination that was playing tricks on him.
The whole surrounding was bright and beautiful, infact all creatures great and small were staring at them.
He rushed back into the bus to inform James of his discoveries. He saw James looking into the window like someone that had seen a ghost.
That was when it occurred to him that something was amiss.

" guy you dey naked! " James whispered to him.
" even you too! " Peter replied and bursted into a silent laughter.
They quickly searched for their trousers but it was nowhere to be found.
Unknown to them After the two hackers made away with their money, A little boy that came out to wee in the wee hour heard snoring from the luxurious bus, and being a mischievous boy, he moved slowly towards the luxurious bus and saw the two adults sleeping undisturbed in a corner inside the bus.
He moved quietly and collected their clothes, the one that he could lay hands on. Since it was still the wee hour, the little boy could not locate their pants and singlets that was at the far right.

Peter and James searched earnestly for their trousers, but to no avail. They were even lucky that the boy did not make away with their undies, if that had been the case, they would have been so sorry for themselves.

Putting on their undies, and before anyone could say jack Robinson, the two friends ran out of the luxurious bus like two wild rabbit looking for their hole.
...............

They took a sharp bend that led to their street after running for about forty five minutes before slowing down to catch their breathe and deliberate on their folly.

" oboy you mean sey those babes just carry our money go just like that? " James spoke after they came to a complete halt under a mango tree that was some few yard from the batcher that they were occupying.

" them even get mind carry our trousers and shirt join am! " Peter said with hoarse voice.
" I just thank God say them leave our boxers and singlets " James put in laughing.
" talking about God, which time you go church last? " Peter asked his friend James.
" me no fit remember! " James replied scratching his head. " mehn! Mosquitoes been full for that bus o! " he added also scratching his hands and feet.
" no be small thing o! " Peter replied. He too was feeling the impact of the Mosquitoe bite.

" but those girls think say them fit just play us go just like? "he added.

" no mind the mumu them, the only thing wey them gain na the scrafing and the things wey we chop for that bar yesterday, as for the money, na counterfeit money them be that. " James replied and burst into a wild laughter followed by Peter.

" oboy make we dey go before somebody come see us for this place with this kind of clothes. Na yawa be that oh! " Peter added and started laughing again.
...............

" nna mehn!, we suppose go church today go thank God for the deliverance wey Im give us today! " Peter suggested after they've taken their bath and have eaten.

" na true talk oh! " James seconded. " but which church wey we go come go nah? " he added.
" we go just waka dey go, any church wey make sense, we go just branch. "

" na good talk be that. " James replied. With that they put on their clothes and strolled out of the house.

TBC........

** 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.

TBC.......

endurrance i can see you, so please don't hide. I'm a ghost detector.

** 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.

CHAPTER ONE........

" Madam bring more beer make we high! " Peter screamed on a high pitch, it was obvious that he was getting drunk, and James was by his side with his hands stroking the laps of a light skin hacker that he and james pick at a junction not far from where they were presently sitted.
They were many hackers on the street that particular night, but they choosed to go to the junction. According to them, that's where the best shots were always taken from.
They had succeeded in beating down the price to five thousand for the night for the two girls, one of which James took and the other one was left with Peter.
After which they left for the bar where they were presently sitted, drinking themselves to stupor.

The woman brought four more bottles of beer as requested by peter. The quickly devoured the beer that was placed before them.

" o baby, wetin be name nah?. " peter asked the girl that was beside him.
The girl was a bit darker than the one that James went for, and was also not as pretty as her, but to Peter, she was the prettiest girl on the surface of the earth. He was not to blame, the volume of alcohol that he had consume was working wonders.

" my name no dey important, make we begin dey go house nah, " the girl replied sacastically. She too was beginning to be influenced by the spirit behind alcohol.

" see o!, this girl dey form hard to get! " Peter thought aloud.

" no worry, we go soon dey go house, and i go make sure say, i lose all the nut wey dey that your waist. " Peter replied with a smirk. He was beginning to UnCloth the girl in his imagination.

Meanwhile, James did not have that kind of patience in him, as he bent down his head and started to kiss the girl all over.

" girl! you sweet pass sugarcane! " James shouted aloud, while the girl was fighting to get him off her face.

" Madam!, bring more bottles! " this time it was James screaming on top of his voice.
.....................

Inside the Bar a conversation was on between the owner of the bar and her sales girls,

" Madam , you sure say this people go fit pay for all the drinks wey them dey buy? " one of the sales girl asked.

" Madam na true talk o!, we never see this kind of face here before! " another sales girl seconded.

" you people should relax, anything that they want just serve them, they will surely pay. Don't you people trust me any more, i'm Madam ' point and kill ' nobody can drink here and not pay. " she boasted.
.................

" Madam where the drink nah! " James shouted from outside. The little meeting inside came to a halt as they rushed to go and attend to them.

After everything the bill was brought to them. Everything totalled eighteen thousand naira. They paid without complaining and left the bar, walking towards their destination.

The night was far spent, moreover it was a saturday night.
They approached their mansion and went to one of the rooms. Without wasting time, they moved into the business of the day, that is scrafing.
.....................

Early on sunday morning, one of the girls woke up and and woke the other one in a hurry.
They discovered that they were stark naked and that they were not in any mansion but inside an abandoned luxurious bus.
The first girl saw her pant hanging on one of the window in the bus, while the other one saw hers under one of the seats in the bus.

They quietly searched for their clothes and saw them outside the bus in different directions.
They quickly and quietly put on their clothes and went inside the bus. They searched the trousers of James and Peter and made away with all the money that were available while the two guys were still sleeping peacefully though they were naked.

These two have not been to church before, they were just passing by when some breeze blew them into the church, but what we don't know, is the nature of the breeze that blew them into the church.
