Just then, a slim looking man that looked like he was in his mid sixties came out from one of the Zinc doors in front of us. "Haaa my son, u no tell me say you dey come today" he said as he walked towards us and gave Frank a warm hug.

I distanced myself a little, watching the both of them closely and wondering when it's best I let out a help scream. They stood for awhile discussing, the aged man would give me a brief stare, smile and continue his conversation with Frank.

After about 10minutes, he stretched out his hands to me and was like "nwam ima katakwa nma ehhh u too fine". I smiled and still maintained my distance only to turn toward Frank and see him beckoning me to enter the Zinc house with them.

Like I was charmed, I found myself going into the small zinc hut without hesitation. My mind was alert but I doubted my body was. He ordered Frank to give him money to get some kolanuts, 2 life day old chicken and then a razor blade. I watched Frank count the money and handed to him but I still couldn't speak.

"Asam don't worry I dey your back e hear" I heard Frank say and all I did was nod, I wanted to tell him I was backing out, I wanted to scream am done but instead, I found myself crying real hot tears. "Frank please don't let me do this" my heart spoke but I just couldn't convey it to him.

Not long after, he was back with the items and again he gave me a smile, this time a mischievous one. I sat down quietly like I was being controlled with a remote control but one thing I was certain was, my Chi was with me. Despite the quietness, I knew I could do something for my safety if anything aside the oath was to take place.

The native doctor made some incantations and then ordered us to repeat words after him which we did. Just then, I started feeling safe, Frank was saying the same words as me, if he cheated he would run mad too, there was no partiality, maybe he was geniune after all. I still couldn't object but my spirit was calm.

He gave Frank the blade and told him to slit my thumb and he did, then he took the blade from Frank and slit his thumb himself. I felt weird, it was meant to be vise versa but again does it matter who slit who? We let the blood drop together in a plate then the native Doctor mixed it together and kept aside.

He made some incantations and we repeated after him, then he told us to lick each other's blood which we did immediately. Frank was all smiles that I even wondered if he actually knew what he was doing by taking an oath of fidelity with me.

The native doctor broke the kolanuts which came out 4piece, he said it signified the four market days of the Igbo clan and that they would bear witnex to our love. Then he gave us one love each which we dipped inside the plate of mixed blood and chewed immediately. The remaining 2 was thrown into the idol head that lay in front of us.

"Nnam this matter dey waka well o" he said as he brought out the 2 life day old chicks, strangled them and gave each to the both of us while making some incantations I couldn't hear. "Swallow it!" he ordered with a very fierce face, my heart skipped, "Jesus has it gotten to this!" My heart yelled but again, I couldn't voice out.

I have a feeling that the oath taking is fake.frank and the herbalist might have planned it together so as to make Britney stick with him

I watched Frank swallow it with ease like something he has always been used to. He took the other lifeless chicken and asked me to open my mouth. I couldn't resist, my eyes were doing the talking, the tears just won't stop flowing.

"Good girl! good girl!!!" Frank applauded as I opened my mouth to show that it has gone down my throat. Swallowing a full raw day old chicken was just too much for me. I felt it hooked to my throat but Frank kept giving me that assurance look even as I cried.

The native doctor did a few incantations and then told us it was over and we had better not flawed the vow since it means an irreversible madness. I was ready to stick by it so long as Frank was doing same, after all he was good in bed, wealthy, what more can I ask for.

I still found myself silent till we got to our house in Agulu, I was bitter, I had alot to say to Frank. "Asam, adim very sorry for today Mana obu kwanu for our good (am very sorry for today but it was also for our good)" he started just as we got to the bedroom.

"It's okay that you let me do all those things? Frank you are very wicked and diabolic gosh!" I fumed. The deed was already done, backing out now would be foolish of me, I might run mad if care isn't taken. "Ola daddy okwanu ife love na eme o (ola daddy that's what love can make one do)".

I hived a sigh and walked out on him, I was kind of happy that he was as trapped as me but again my instinct still felt something wasn't right. I sat in the sitting room thinking about the scenerio, I didn't know when I slept off only to be woken up to a nice plate of Jellof rice and chicken.

"When did you make all this?" I asked, surprises written all over my face. I had never seen Frank boil white yam let go making something that looks this yummy. "Alot more surprises awaits you my Angel" he said as he kissed my lips passionately then paused and continued, "for now enjoy your meal".

Frank was being the most romantic man on the planet Earth that night, I felt like the Queen herself, even our sexcapade was totally different, I had no reason not to forgive whatever happened at Enugu. He was sorry, he did it for love, awnn am such a lucky girl.

"Asam good morning" Frank woke me with a smile, the love I was getting was just so overwhelming, truly all that glitters are not always gold. "Will you marry me?", tears ran down my face, how did I ever get this lucky. I was breathless for a second, I wanted to scream so loud but I ended up with a whisper.

"Some one tell me am dreaming" I said as I kissed and hugged him deeply, "Yes yes yes I will marry you!!!" I replied. A proposal without a ring, that was crazy! I expected him to slip the ring on my fingers but they was none. It just kisses, smiles and more kisses.

"Notify your parents that I would be coming to see them with my people on Sunday" he said as he left for work, "I would have to travel to my village then" I pouted, he smiled and tickled me "Olam you are very beautiful, okay you would leave for your village tomorrow" I nodded happily as I watched him drive off to work while I closed the gate.

Wow, at last I would be going home. I miss my parents and my siblings, I just miss home. But one more thing, I wasn't returning as a poor wretch, I was coming back in style and wealth, I am going to be Mrs Britney Olaedochukwu Ikegwu, the wife of the Special Adviser to the Governor on Youths and Tourism. "Yea! That makes sense" I screamed in delight.
