Chapter 136

When Chinasa called me the following day, she said Mr Money bag would be at the place by four o'clock. Knowing Nigeria, i figured that his four o'clock would be anytime between four-thirty and five in the evening.

However, i had went to the mango tree and picked up my three men. They thought we were going to eat and drink and return but their real job was to protect me since i didn't know the squad that would show up with money bag. It was true that i had warned Chinasa not to tell him but i never trusted women that much.

We got to the Mr biggs a few minutes before four o'clock and camped along the restaurant. There was a small private beer parlour that sole chicken meat too, we camped there and drank. Over an hour later, the black ML showed up in front of Mr Biggs. Chinasa, Clement and one other mean looking skinhead alighted from the car. It was clearly the most expensive vehicle in the area. Clement's father must have really been very rich to the extent of allowing him to be cruising around in an expensive German machine. However, there were other reasons that could make an insecure rich man allow his children to live such flamboyant lives. One of the reasons could be the one son or one child syndrome. It was a situation where a Nigeria or African Parent would over-pamper their child because he or she was just only one child or son.
I never for one day saw such rubbish in Europe. Actually Europe was where people deliberately gave birth to one child and quit. Nothing would make them have another child unless they had decided to do so mutually. The Westerners believed so much in their own lives, not the lives of others no matter who they were.
Mr money bag even had body guards. People like him hardly amount to anything because they hardly knew how to make money.

How Chinasa met money bag was a surprise to me. Maybe it was from school or Church or party.

It wasn't time to think about such things. It was time to approach Clement inside the restaurant. However, i still didn't know how to do that.
Eventually i had decided to walk in there alone and let the three wise men follow me closely later. I was also suspicious of the skinhead. He could start attacking me in the name of protecting his pay master. But i could still buy enough time to allow my group to come in before starting any provocative words. I wasn't really interested in fighting Clement. He probably had more resources but his arrogant would destroy him if he tried to fight me.
I would have suspected something if i were in his shoes. I would have suspected the sudden invitation of Chinasa since i had always thrown every situation open to suspicion, even the ones i knew were not supposed to be

It had protected me for long.

My squad were busy talking about the SUV that i even wondered if they would switch allegiance. People were too fragile in Nigeria and could sell out anytime they wanted. And somehow, i had just met my squad. It was all risky but i was determined.
As my new bodyguards looked in awe of the German SUV, i told them that i knew the guy and that he had threatened to attack me.
One of my new friends asked why and i told him it was because of the girl who just came down from the car with him. Instead of him getting upset as i had expected, he started giving me advice as if he was King Solomon. However, i knew he would still fight on my side if that was to ensure.
''I am going inside there now. You people should come in and sit in a different table as soon as i went in. Order what you want to eat and pretend that you don't know me unless something goes wrong'' i said and stood up.

I settled the bill and walked into Mr biggs.
Mr money bag and his two friends had taken a round table with five seats, two of the seats were still vacant. I walked there and said: ''Surprise Surprise, look who is here. How are you Clement my brother''

He looked up at me with two large surprised eyes.

''Are you following me'' he asked as three strange men walked past us and sat at another table.

''Your car is one in town, so it was easy to spot you and follow you. Anyway i am not here for trouble. I just want to warn you to stop threatening me on the phone. I want you to know that i can track you down anytime i want. This is Chinasa and she is here with you, not with me. If she ever chose to follow me, you need to get over it'' i said as his skinhead friend stood up and tried to come at me.

I tracked back towards my three wise men as the skinhead came at me. One of my group had stood up and walked past me to stand between me and skinhead.
''You dey craze abi, you wan beat am because you get muscle. Try touch am now and see wetin go happen to you here'' he said as skinhead started going backwards.

Lets leave here i said to my group. The two security agents at the entrance of Mr Biggs had noticed that something was wrong. They had started coming towards us as i said to Clement ''Just stay away from me. The next time you threaten me, i will punish you''.

The pampered brat was scared that he couldn't say anything. Chinasa had stood up and didn't know if to hold me or beg me to stop.

We walked outside. I got to the back tyre of the ML and started leaking it, one of the security men rushed at me and pushed me aside to prevent the tyre from going down entirely.

I went to my car and started the engine. My squad entered as i sped off through Ago Palace way to Amuwo Odofin. There was a hotel i had gone once that featured live band. My group had done their jobs and i needed to make them happy. I had a feeling that the war was about to begin, unless of course Clement was just a brag. He had been shocked by what he witnessed at the restaurant. I had just hoped that he didn't find out that Chinasa was exclusive on the plan to bring him to Mr Biggs.
It was a small victory for me and i had hoped that Clement would stop threatening me but i knew rich kids very well, they always believed the World was made for them.

" As a man sow, shall he reap. and I
know that talk is cheap. But the heat
of the battle is as sweet as the
victory."

Oya Crack ur ribs while we re all waiting 4 Zubby next update

An Igbo man called Zubby had no child, no money, no home and a blind mother. He prayed to God, and God moved by his prayers,told him 2 make only 1 wish which will b granted! The Igbo man prayed thus:

"God,I want my mother to see my wife putting Diamond bangles on my children's hands in our new mansion! "

Then God said, Damn! I still have a lot to learn from these Igbo people...

Is that complex breakthrough i see there..quite funny..lmao

Nice one zubby....i've seen globalruns.com....it's a great concept...too..

Clement would've have win this battle but I see arrogant and imaturity be-clouding his thinking faculty.
I see Zubby duping him and also snatching Chinasa from him.

Chinasa at the other hand, were just managing him (clement) because she is afraid of him(his life style and his immature attitude towards ppl) and his money which he's ready to doll out anytime she snizz

drnairlandz
I bet in favor of ozoigbondu ...yea

lets go there...

Chapter 137

The troubles i was encountering in Nigeria was becoming too much. It was almost as if i didn't know how to live in my own country. I was being too careless with words that could put me in trouble. I was getting too involved with people who could harm me. I had managed to escape most of the troubles unharmed but i also knew that it was only a matter of time before i got into a trouble that could land me in serious harm. I tried to recall how i got myself into some of those things.

Almost all my troubles were avoidable at the initial stages.
I could have forgiven the Landlord's wife after pouring water on me, perhaps i would have still lived in their house.

I could have forgiven the area boys after slapping me but i didn't want such life, i never did. I had always believed that Africans would not abandon evil ways if nobody punished them for their sins.

I could have also ignored Clement and his threat but i had chosen to attack whether he meant it or not.

Everywhere i went, there was always someone to step on my toes. Was it that it was me who stepped on people's toes? Or could it be that i didn't know how to live in the World? Why did i always chose the revenge path anytime i felt that i had been offended?
It was clear to me that i had been able to win all my revenge fights because while my enemies rested, i planned on how to revenge.
I took them unawares. It was time to start behaving like millions of other inhabitants of planet Earth. It was time to abandon revenge and start turning the other cheek. Yes, it was time.

First things first, i called Clement.

''I called to apologize for my behaviour'' i had said as soon as he answered the call.
'' You stupid boy, you have the gut to call me?'' he shouted.

''I am serious Clement. I think what i did was bad and i am sorry for that'' i said again.
He hung up the phone.

Damn! It was going to be too difficult to convince people that i had changed for good, that i had turned a new leaf.

I made a mental list of the people i had wronged. I needed to apologize to them one after the other.

First of all, i called Stella.
''What do you want'' she had said.
''Stella, i want to apologize to your mother for what i did to her'' i said.
''Has your new landlady asked you to leave like my mother did, you are not wanted in our house again'' she said.
''Stella i am serious about this, i think what i did was very bad and i need to talk to her. Please send me her phone number'' I said.

She suddenly hung up but a few minutes later, i got a text message with her mother's number in it.

I called Stella back. She answered and reminded me that i also needed to apologize to her.
''I am really sorry sweetheart. I think some kind of revenge evil possessed me but i have changed now'' i said.
She advised me to go and visit a certain Prophet T B Joshua for deliverance. According to her, the prophet would cast the revenge evil away in a few seconds and i would become a new leaf. I gave it some thought.
I had decided to visit the prophet really but i needed to apologize to people first.

I called Stella's mother. She hung up when she found out it was me. I tried several times to call again but she never picked. However when my phone rang four hours later, it was her.
''Why were you calling me'' she said.
I figured Stella had discussed with her about how i wanted to apologize.
''Aunty I am very sorry for pouring dirty water on your cloth. It was deliberate and i think it was wrong. Please forgive me'' i said.
She was touched. I heard her said a few inaudible words to someone and when she talked to me again, she said she had forgiven me. However she wanted me to visit the same prophet her daughter had suggested.

The next on line was Maria. I called her and told her that i was coming to Surulere. She said she would be at home in an hour, therefore i used that opportunity to drive to Ago Palace way and picked up some money in the Diamond bank along the road.
I drove to a super market and bought a flower and a card. Inside the card was written in blocked letters ''I am very sorry''.
I took them to Surulere and waited inside the car in front of Maria's house. She was on her way back.
She returned some minutes after i had come and packed her car behind mine. Maria tapped on my car to alert me that she had returned but i sat motionless, looking at the sky through my windscreen. The flower and the card were on the passenger seat. Tears were gathering around my eyes and i was struggling to keep them at the back of my head where they belonged; men don't cry.
Then all of a sudden, i jumped out of the car and hugged Maria right there on the street. People were staring at us but i didn't care. I had drifted away from humanity, love, care and forgiveness. If i was really going to return to all of the above, hugging and kissing in public shouldn't matter.

I entangled myself from Maria and walked across the car to get the flower and card.
'' Here is for you'' i said as i handed her the items.

She looked up and down the street and finding out that people's eyes were still on us, she held my left hand and dragged me inside her house.

''What is this all about'' she said while looking in my eyes.
She must have thought that i was about to propose marriage to her.

''I did something to you out of anger and revenge. The items were to ask for your forgiveness'' i said.
She tore the card and read it.
''What exactly did you do to me Austin'' she asked.

''First of all, my name is not Austin. It is Azubuike. I lied to you about that. Secondly, i was the person who told the area boys to attack you at the Emmanuel bus stop'' I said.

She kept her gaze on me for a long time and when the realities of what i had revealed to her sank down into her head, Maria began to cry. She didn't ask why i did it. She only asked for her phone when she stopped crying.
I didn't know how to tell her that i had sold her phone but i didn't want to lie to her anymore.
''I sold it''

Zuby, I don't know where to place you. I'm not fascinated by several of the characters you exhibit (per the write up) but I will say it again that you are in a class occupied by very few people.

If all these happened to you in one lifetime and you are able to recollect the details in so much details, you are good.
If you just put the stories together, as in if they were all (100%) lies, you are very creative.

At a point I found myself hating you with a passion and I love you so much for that because it only means you have succeeded in drawing me (and probably other strangers) into your story. Although we are not even sure whether it's true or not, we started taking sides as if we have stakes in it. That is what MASTERS do.

Jisike, mo gbedi fun e, well done.

hmmmmmmm ... Zubby the chameleon

First things first...Zubby had succeeded in teaching me that!
I think the house just learn how to wait patiently before crucifying someone. This last chapter was very touchy and expository. We all need to amend our ways in whatsoever means we've wrong people in the past! We need to forgive and forget!
ZUBBY...more blessings to you bro.
YOU ARE SIMPLY A LEGEND!!!
