If I can't get 150 people that want to read a story for free, on a big platform like Nairaland, why proceed with writing It?

If you thread that path, you may not finish it till forever o

True, there's much traffic on twitter than here though I still prefer nairaland cuz of its free mode
The story will have to be catchy if you opt for twitter

18 out of 150
Its much o

Nice update

Isn't Oyeku getting out of hand??

Usimalo

Thunder streaked across the sky as rain poured heavily. It was cold and chilly. Though it was still afternoon, yet it was dark and gloomy. Chilo was lying on her mat. Enjoying the cool weather, till she drifted into a deep sleep and fell into a dream.

A figure appeared from a distance. He was walking towards her. The closer he get the more Chilo came to epiphany of who he is. Tall and dark, his broad shoulders as if they can hold the world.

" Oyeku!" She muttered softly as her heart skipped.

She became overwhelmed with an unexplainable euphoria. She found herself launching forward to meet him, but she was held back by a strong arm.

She turn around to see who it was. It was Ogbo. He pulled her into his arm and held her tightly. She struggled to break free, but Ogbo wouldn't let go. She faced Oyeku and tried to beg him to help her free. But when are eyes met Oyeku's, she saw a magnificent hatred written on his face. These hatred was not directed to anything in particular but to Chilo herself.

" Oyeku." She almost whispered.

" Die!!!!!!! " Oyeku grabbed her neck and choked her.


" Oyeku, please!! Plea...se. " She woke up with a shout, only to find someone sitting crossed leg like a buddhist monk beside her.

She screamed and hurl herself backward away from the somebody.

" Don't near me!! I'll scream!!"

"It is me Iya, why are you shouting, and you are crying too. " It was Dada; her son.

"Oh!! my baby!! Am sorry i woke you up. "

She pulled him and held him tight.

" Sorry!! " She whispered to his ear.

"Why are you crying? Is it that man, Oyeku?" Dada looked up at her.

In that very moment, Chilo saw Oyeku right in him and her heart banged. Oyeku in a small body.

Dada resemblance with Oyeku is like the resemblance of beans with her siblings. She could not help but observe those features; the shape of his head, his eyes, his nose, his lips only his skin complexion appears more lighter than that of Oyeku, which might have been her only trait in him.

" Is it that Oyeku again? " he rephrased.

" How do you know Oyeku? " Chilo anxiety and shock could not be hidden.

"Sometimes you mention him in your sleep. I don't know him, but i know that he is troubling you, i wish i can see him and break his neck. " Indignation could be sensed from his boyish voice which is too deep for his age of five.

"Hush, little one!! There is no Oyeku. Do you hear. I only say that whenever i am very tired before sleeping. Do you hear? " Fear was written all over her.

Dada nodded.

"And, do not mention Oyeku again, do you hear? Oyeku is a bad name that can attract malevolent and ugly demons. Don't even say it again, and don't say it near your father, do you hear. "

Dada nodded once again.

She heaved in relief.

" Here, now lie here beside me and sleep. " She adjusted for the boy to fit on her mat.

How could he have known about Oyeku?

"This is bad." she thought.

She prayed that Dada should not mention Oyeku, near Ogbo.

Ever since she has become Ogbo's wife, she had not conceived. It was obvious that Ogbo was the one with the problem. This situation was a weakness for Ogbo who had tried all he can, with different herbal remedies, rituals and magic waisteband, yet his basket could not hold water.

He had agreed and resolved to make Dada his own biological son. Only if Chilo and her mother could keep quiet about it, erase the memories of Oyeku, as such; Dada would come to accept him as his true father.

Dada mentioning Oyeku is ominous. Only the gods knows where this situation will lead to.

She determined that she will ensure Dada does not mention that name again. Even if it means to say bad things about Oyeku. She can't afford to lose the peace she has been enjoying in her family. Her love story with Oyeku should have ended six years
ago, but she had always tried to nurture a false hope that Oyeku is alive. Now, the false hope has turn around to hunt her in her dreams, now it want to destroy her family.

" Oyeku is dead, you must move on! " she told herself.

" I must move on. "

She was determined.

Oyeku meji🤣

I thought I was the only one complaining about ghost readers. Nairaland has a lot of them. Don't know if it's pride or what. Just don't know. They think writing a story is easy. Sha, don't even want to get started on them.

I do comments on post n also some times I get carried away n not being able to, so I can say it isn't pride

Folktaler:
Am back guys.

I missed everyone of you.

And am sorry for the great break.

It was inevitable.

Am back now...

Let roll!!!?
