CHAPTER XVI

Later that evening Lebo offered his room to me that he was going to spend the night with his girlfriend in Alexander, he said he doesn’t know how things may turn out so he needs to at least spend one more night with his girlfriend. You know, this is a good idea, I think I need that time with pam also at least if things turns out bad I can still spend one more night with her, so I left with Lebo for Alexander.

We got to Alexander and pam was so surprised to see me, she took me round Alexander showing me off to everyone and showing me places. I also met her parent and like she is, so they are very sweet people. We went partying in a local Tavern with some of her friends who won’t stop looking at me in a strange way, you know previously I used to be scared of locations like Alexander but today is a different day, the people here are lovely, they keep asking me questions about Nigeria and how they would love to visit, I remember two guys who wouldn’t stop asking me to hook them up with a Nigeria girl. I wasn’t with Lebo all night and I had fun like tomorrow was my last day (well who knows, tomorrow may be my last day), we partied till about 2am and then left the tavern to pam parent house, we spent the night at the back room (boys quarters) and yeah, you don’t have to ask, it was a lovely night.

The next morning I woke up at around 8am and noticed pam wasn’t next to me, I turned around and she walked inside the room saying “Good morning baby” I replied “morning dear how was your night?” she said it was one of her best night in a long while and what made it better is the fact I never told her I was actually coming. She told me she has being thinking of me but didn’t want to call me just not to be too forward. I stretched my hand toward her and pulled her to the bed, I position her to lay on me as I told her how much being with her means to me. She might not know but honestly I love this girl, she brings me happiness and makes me feel different whenever I’m around her.

I wish all this is done and I have my share of the money, I will simple get married to pam and relocate to another province to start a new live, make kids and build a family like I have always wanted. That’s all I wish and I know it would happen in time to come.

At around 1pm Lebo called me and I told him where I was, he came there and we left heading back to our house. We got to the house and they was no one there, we settled down as I tried to reach both of the girls phone but both phones where switched off. Well how bad can it be? Probably they went for some woman things; I went inside my room, took a shower, didn’t cream my body and lay down on the bed for about 3hours texting on my phone back and front with pam.

At about 6pm my phone rang and when I picked it was eze.

Ballz: hello eze
Eze: how far my brother (how are you)
Ballz: I de, how your side (I’m good and yourself?)
Eze: good, where you de (good and where are you)
Ballz: I de my house (I’m home)
Eze: ok try see me tomorrow (I want to see you tomorrow)
Ballz: ok, hope nothing (ok, I will but I hope everything is fine)
Eze: yes everything de alright, I just need make you do me one favor (everything is fine, I only need a favor from you)

Ballz: ok, no problem, I go see you for morning (ok, I will see you in the morning)

He said “sure” and hanged up, what does he want from me? I don’t think I have done anything bad but who knows, with these guys anything is possible. At this point am not scared but am being careful cause I don’t know who is for me or against me anymore. I spent the whole night in my room, I asked Lebo to help me get Nigerian food from town, that’s what I eat and slept off.

The next morning, I got up early and still Lesego and Lerato isn’t back yet, I tried calling but got no luck, I left voice messages on both phones, I don’t what to think good or bad, if something happened to them? Or what if they change plans? I don’t know and am not sure of what to think. All I know is I will deal with that if I don’t hear back from them by mid-day, I need to take a shower get dress and meet up with eze.

Just as I walked out of the room I noticed Lerato boxes wasn’t there anymore so I opened the wardrobe to check if she put it in there and to my surprise the wardrobe is empty, not even Lesego stuff is there, everything Is gone. I called Lebo to quickly come and told him everything is gone, but Lerato and Lesego stuff are all gone. I don’t know what is going on but something is not making sense, i told Lebo eze called me and said he wanted to see me this morning and he replied “what if they already rob the warehouse” I told him I don’t think so and if they have how does oh shit wait.

CHAPTER XV

I grabbed a sachet of weed on the table and headed out with Lebo, I actually don’t know where am going but I can’t stand being played like PS 2, by ladies all in the name of what? Good sex or soft heart, I’m just so done with this, it’s either on my term or we let this go.

We drove to the park which is usually our spot; Lebo tied the weed as we smoked together. I asked him what he thinks about those ladies plans, am I over reacting or what. He told me something is wrong somewhere and he’s still trying to figure it out, why do these ladies wanna involve someone else and what if the game change and those guys make away with the whole package. I turned to him and said yes I also think the same, what if they make away with the packages, what are we gonna do? I told Lebo It has better be on my term or no deal, we can likewise return back to work as usual and kill this whole plan and Lebo said “or we could rob this place ourselves and take control of the situation, either good or bad.

We went silent for some minutes as we smoked, all of a sudden Lebo looked at me and said “shit shit shit shit” I quickly blew the smoke out and switched off the weed while looked back and front looking if the cops saw us but I couldn’t see anything, I looked at him and asked if he saw the cops and he said no, it’s not the cops but the girls. Again am turning around looking for them and wondering why they must have followed us here.

Lebo: can you please stop looking around; the cops and the girls are not here, i only thought of something and I think it’s really bad. Those girls are not gonna rob the warehouse on Xmas day.
Ballz: yes I think so.
Lebo: that date was only to get us off guard.
Ballz: Hmmm! You are making sense, I think they will do it early and leave all trace to us while they make away.

Lebo: whoever you guys work for isn’t that stupid, he definitely knows only you and Eze knows when the stuff arrived and Eze will not rob the place cause his in charge right?
Ballz: yes I guess? So probably these girls used me to know where the stuff is coming in and as a cover up after they rob the place.
Lebo: that’s what I’m talking about; no one even knows your house and no one will believe they did it even if you confess, because the question will be how you knew and what plans you had with them.

Ballz: now it’s making sense, those girls are sure wiser than I think; i also slept with them thinking I’m the man
Lebo: wait you slept with both of them:
Ballz: yes and
Lebo: shit, that’s a dumb move. They used that in getting you to believe something.
Ballz: so what should we do now?
Lebo: its either we rob the place first or protect the place because am sure you can’t tell anyone, which would be more shit on you.
Ballz: I think we stick to the plan, rob the place but first get them out of the house:
Lebo: good idea but we can’t get them out of the house? That would be an obvious move that we are up to something, so I suggest we go with the flow but always try to be one step ahead of them.
Ballz: and if possible follow them everywhere they go, check their calls and strike before them.

(You know on a good day we wouldn’t have thought this far but in presents of weed, we can see the sky and touch it).

Play ahead of the game it is, we drove back to the house and on the way I asked Lebo, what do you think of Lerato, Should I leave her to stay at the house so we can keep track of them or do I send her moving? He answered “don’t send her out, leave her to stay, I think when we have both of them close we can monitor their plans, but if one is away that means the other one would always be out of the house and that way its bad business for us.

We arrived at the house and luckily everyone was still there, although I felt bad seeing those guys drinking my alcohol for free as they chatted and laughed, Lesego looked at me and said to them “I told you, he will come right! He's Nigerian and he loves money” they laughed; I and Lebo looked at each other, smiled and then sat with them.

CHAPTER XIV

I drove to the warehouse and on getting there I called Lebo, I told him to call me back in 5minutes, he asked why but I didn’t answer and hanged up. I went inside and found Eze, big mike and 4 other guys and I could see freshly delivered stuff, much than I used to see. Big mike turned to me and asked where are the things I wanted to send home? I told him I didn’t get the time to buy anything so I thought of sending cash, I took out R5,000 and gave it to him, he asked how much it was and I said R5,000, I told him I don’t have much cash at the moment adding to the fact I just paid rent so am trying to save but I know my parent would appreciate something from me for Xmas. Big mike looked at me and smiled saying “that’s my boy” he gave me back the money and told me I needed it more, he said he would gave my parent R5,000 on my behalf and tell them it was from me, he said he knows they will be proud, just barely 3months and I could send something to them, that’s a job well done. My phone rang and it was Lebo as planned, I picked the call:

Ballz: hello, how are you
Lebo: good, you said I should call you
Ballz: ok how many do you want
Lebo: how many of what?
Ballz: ok 5, that would be R1,000 Where should I meet you?
Lebo: are you ok? What are you talking about?

I continued talking as I walked toward big mikes office acting like I couldn’t hear very well, I got inside big mike’s office and told Lebo that was just an act, I was using his call as a reason to leave where I was so he better shut up and go with the flow. Still having the phone on my ears pretending I was on a call, I searched big mike’s drawers, I could see Eze from the glass window constantly looking toward me with this suspicious look, I found 2 guns in one of the drawer, am not a gun person so I don’t really know the different, all I know one is black and the other is metal gray, I took the metal gray one and put it in-between my ass and jean. I walk out and told big mike I was leaving and wished him a safe trip, I noticed eze going toward the office so I quickly went out (At least if they found out the gun is missing I would be gone and it wouldn’t be my issue but if they find it with me, I wonder what would be my explanation). I got outside, got into my car and just as I start the car eze came outside running towards me screaming wait wait. I couldn’t run cause that will really look suspicious but honestly all that was in my mind was hit the accelerator and get out of the place but I didn’t, I stopped and he walked to the window, I whine down the window and he said “you forgot to take your stuff for today, I thought someone called you to deliver” oh yeah, I took it from him and said thank you, the person wanted to buy now and pay later that’s why I didn’t take any stuff. He said ok, gave me the stuff and went back inside; i fell back to the car seat and exhaled as I drove out heading home.


I got to the house and to my surprise I met Lerato at my place, we greeted and I went inside the room only to find more boxes in my room. I called Lesego and asked her who owns the boxes and what are they doing in my room, she told me they were for Lerato and she is moving in for the time being, she has to be here till all this is over and then we could go our separates ways. I don’t feel comfortable with the ideal of turning my house into a motel, “I mean” now that I have a girlfriend, I think I need more space and time to myself.

I called Lerato to my room and told her i suggest she stays at a hotel close by, I don’t mind paying for it but am sorry she can’t stay here, (you know am thinking what if something happens and Eze or Joe comes here. I will be dead probable, cause anyone who finds Lerato and Lesego would definitely know something is about to go down). She looked at Lesego and then me; she smiled and walked back to the lounge without saying anything. I tried to stop her but Lesego stopped me and told me that isn’t important now, she told me there is something more important and she will like me to come along with her. I followed her to the garden and found two guys seating with Lebo. She told me to sit, and forget about who stays here or not as that could be dealt with later, she told me a plan has being drawn and she would like my opinion about it.

Lesego: that’s Fani and blue, they are South Africans and we trust them, they will be the one to rob the warehouse, you know we can’t do these ourselves because it’s too dangerous. Yeah I thought about taken down who ever we find at the warehouse but that would be too risky so i and Lerato has decided to employ this guys to do it and we have chosen the 25th, its Xmas and there will be not much concentration at the warehouse.

I looked at her and immediately I sense something was not right, I think these girls want to double cross me on this and no matter what, am not going to let that happen. I stood up look at all of them and said “no one is gonna do this job till I say so, we have to stick to the first plan and whatever comes with it, we will face it together and that’s final” the two guys looked at me and one of them replied “you can trust us on this, it’s not the first time. All you need is to pay us half, we rob the place, bring what you want and you pay us outs. That’s simple boss we are good in this and I promise you will want to use us again” I look at him and answered “No thank you” I then turned to Lebo and said “let’s go bro”

CHAPTER XIII

I called Lesego to the room and told her about the party at big mikes place, she told me she knows about it but do want to go as she already told big mike she has a function at her parent place in hope to spend time with me only to find out I now have a girlfriend. I didn’t respond to that as she continued talking, she told me to be very watchful and listen carefully to everyone conversation as it would really help us.

AT about 4pm I left for the party and unlike I expected it was really small, you know I thought big mike is the boss, knows a lot of people and controls drug houses around South Africa, but the people I see here are the once I work with, 2 guys from the centurion warehouse and one girl from Durban. Something doesn’t add up to me really but anywhere I joined the party, big mike laughed and talked loud like I have never seeing him before. He said Eze would drop him and Emeka at the airport as he’s flight is around 2pm tomorrow. I also over heard him telling Eze to be at his place very early because they needed to get to the warehouse first before heading to the airport, he told Eze the stuff is coming in from Brazil tomorrow and its worth R11m (Eleven million rands), he told Eze both him and two other friend join money to go big this time, so he needs to confirm the arrival and the quantity before he leaves. That was acknowledged; I enjoyed the rest of my evening and left around 10pm back to my house.

Pam and her sister were already gone, Lebo already sleeping and Lesego was sitting in the lounge alone I guess waiting to hear from me if I found anything. I sat with her and like I expected, she told me she was actually waiting for me on updates, I told her I only got information that more stuff are coming in tomorrow and its worth R11m (Eleven million rands), some would be leaving for Durban, centurion and cape but am not sure to which warehouse it would first arrive tomorrow. She suggested we find a way to know which of the warehouse the stuff is coming in to make our plans easy cause if we rob one warehouse and it turns out it’s the wrong one, security would be increased at the other. We talked for about an hour bringing up different ideal until she brought up a finally suggestion that I call big mike in the morning and create a reason to see him, this is not gonna be easy but she persuaded I did it. I have to night to think of something realistic not suspicious.

She stood up and invited me to bed, I told her I had plans to spend the night on the coach while she sleeps comfortable on my bed but she disagreed and persuade i join her in bed, I went with her hoping nothing would happen. Yeah she is beautiful with a hot body but Lesego is just someone you don’t wanna get involved with at this point, I know she uses what information she has to get what she wants and if we do this I know she will use it against me in time to come.
We got inside the room and she went to the bathroom, I quickly used this little time to change into my nighties and laid down on the bed covering myself with a blanket, she came back and said to me “ballz what do you think” I looked over and saw her in red lingerie as she pulls the top off, “OBOY” (even if you are virgin what I saw will for sure diverging your eyes, mind and every part of you). She walked toward me, pulled the blanket down and slowly laid on me as she kisses me, I didn’t resist or think about what big mike would do if he finds out, I just went straight for it and like she looks, it was a soft and smooth sex. You know that kind of sex you only see on movies? Yeah that’s what I’m talking about “Good night lovie” was the last thing I could remember saying before I passed out

The Next Morning, I got up feeling like I had the whole world in my head. I guess I drank too much and now my head feels very heavy, I got up and noticed Lesego was in the shower and when I walked out Lebo was at the lounge smoking weed. I chilled with him, wasn’t really in the mood for smoking weed, all I wanted was something sweet and cold.

Lebo is going to be part of all this so why shouldn’t I just tell him (so I thought) and so I did, told him our plan and just like everyone else he was in without asking questions. he told me how he really wants a large sum to go back to school and make his granny proud, how he wanted to leave Alexander and live in a better place with his girlfriend and become a journalist in future (as he drags the weed inside). He told me he only got into this business to save some cash for school, he’s afraid of telling his girlfriend what he does but this could really save all the explanation if we pull through (yeah, that’s just exactly what I want to hear. If we pull through, Lesego just believe it’s already done, not thinking the other way around and that worries me)

You know, I have being thinking personally, what if this doesn’t pull through? Do I go back working for big mike and if it doesn’t pull through what may be the problem? We getting caught or even getting killed. I turned to Lebo and asked “what if we don’t pull through, what will be the plan” he replied “I will have to tell my girlfriend the true and wait for what comes along”
I took the weed from him, drag it and looked down thinking, this young dude doesn’t know what we are about getting in., all he thinks of is his girlfriend and not his life, and I guess his doing all this for this girl which he maybe not end up marrying her. Doesn’t worth it or does it.
Lebo continued talking about his girlfriend and how far they have come through, from the age of 10, they used to be neighbors and do those father and mother play, he liked her and always choose her and bal bla bla (I can hardly listen to his love tale). Lesego then came in the lounge from the room as she greeted “Good Morning” we answer answered hello and she asked me if I have figure out a way about what we discussed, I told her no but I have a plan and I hope it works, I also told her I wanna involve Lebo and have told him everything so he is part of the deal now either we all pull through together or not. She smiled and said that’s fine with her and then she went inside to fetch my phone, she gave it to me and said “it’s almost 9am, I think you should make the call now before he leave the warehouse”

I took the phone and dialed big mike number without really knowing what to say, all I had in my mind was to wish him a safe trip and ask where he was, didn’t think that would work but it’s the best my brain could produce.

Phone ringing!!! Dinnng dinnng! Dinnng dinnng!! Dinnng dinnng!!!

He picked and said hello boy
Ballz: morning sir.
Big mike: how are you my boy?
Ballz: am good sir.
Big mike: I wanted to call you this morning to ask if you want to send anything to your people, I can help you carry them, I don’t have much box.

I went mute as he caught me off guild, already having what to say he just gave me the right words at the right minute.

Big mike: hello boy, are you there?

I got to take this opportunity before it passes me by,

Ballz: yes sir, that’s why am calling you
Big mike: ok, oya meet me at the warehouse and bring the thing you want to send there (referring to the gold warehouse)
Ballz: ok sir, I will be there in a few, thank you.
Big mike: bye (as he hanged up).

I looked at Lesego and she said “just perfect my love, so did he tell you where to meet him” I answered “yes” he said I should meet him at the gold warehouse, I guess that’s where the stuff are coming or already are. I went to the room, grabbed the car keys and some cash and headed out, I told Lebo to stay back, I need to handle this all by myself and then I left.

CHAPTER XII

The next morning being Wednesday we headed out to buy things for the house, I still stopped at the warehouse to pick up some stuff in case I get a call to deliver. We went all out to every store patiently buying from kitchen pots to couch, spoons, knife, fridge, dstv (satellite TV), television, bed set, dining table and even play station 2 console. Everything a young man should have in his house we bought them within Wednesday and Thursday, it was quite easy with the help of Lebo. All I needed to do is pay for the items while he gets a bakkie (track) and when they leave to drop it at the house; I scroll through my phone looking for my buyers who stays around that particular place and see if I could sell some powder to them, luck me it did pay off. Within these two days I sold everything I get from the warehouse.

Friday morning we moved from the hotel to my new house, everything is in place. I bought different types of alcohol and meat, preparing for the housewarming with Lebo’s friends. I took a few stuff from the warehouse cause I know i won’t be at my spot but should I get a call for delivering I would have something, at about 4pm I was done and heading home with my buddy Lebo, he started the fire while I freeze the alcohol and get the music playing. He directs his friends to the house and at about 7pm everyone was dear, well not really everyone I know but people I felt for once comfortable with. I, Lebo, his girlfriend zandi, her older sister Pamela and 3 of he’s male friends and their girlfriends, chilling and enjoying the braai (BBQ) with good music playing. We talked about almost everything especially high school experience and girls, Lebo introduced me to he’s girlfriend older sister Pamela (pam for short) and am kind of interested in her. I mean she is beautiful and not involved with all this drug issues, that is the kind of girl I have always wanted, now I have a house of my own so why shouldn’t I gave relationship a try.

I sat with her as we conversed, laughed and drank together. At about 9:00pm the doorbell rang, I went for it and it was Lesego, I open and there she was standing with three big boxes, I asked her why she was here this late and what’s with the boxes, she reminded me that she was supposed to leave Big Mike place on Friday for home but she couldn’t go home cause we still got an unfinished business, so she came here without her car cause no one is supposed to see that car around.. She drove to her friends place in Pretoria, dropped the car there and took a taxi (cab) to get here. She came in and met with everyone, dropped her bag inside my room and joined us, I noticed she kept coming in between I and pam discussion and suggesting to me we should go clubbing its Friday. At around 11pm the other three guys left with their girl, Lesego suggested pam sleeps in same room with her while I spend the night on the couch, that was fine with me and also pam, but she ending up sleeping on the couch with me as we discussed until she passed out with her head on my thighs.

Lebo woke us up the next morning asking if we were going to work or not as it was already 9am. Pam joined her sister in Lebo room while Lebo and I got ready and headed out. We did our normal routine for the day and then i dropped him at the house that evening and headed to Big mike’s house, he checked my book and everything was up to date, he paid me as usual and I left. I didn’t care about the rest of the boys at this stage, I just can’t wait for that moment to come and let’s get over with all this, start a new life and maybe a real relationship with pam. As soon as I got to my house I got a call from Emeka inviting me to join them at the club, it was ike’s birthday, he told me to come and celebrate just to remind me even if Fred is gone, that doesn’t mean we are not still brothers or have each other’s back, he asked me to come buy them a drink also as respect to getting my own place as he sounded happily on the phone. I had no option but to join them, so I told Lebo, his girlfriend and her sister we have a party to attend tonight, I took Lesego inside the room and explain to her while she couldn’t come along to the part and whose party it is. We left and on the way pam asked me why Lesego was at my place and what is with her attitude, i had to come up with a quick story saying her husband Fred who used to work with me was recently killed so she is staying by me for the mean time just till the investigation and questioning is finished and then she will be gone, I looked at Lebo and smiled while we drove to the club where the party was.

Everything went smooth at the club, party party and more party with alcohol at the highest level. We left the party at around 3am the next morning; pam was all over me at the club and that gave me the opportunity to tell her what I felt for her and that I would like us to start something, she didn’t argue, accepted as I expected and that made the night even more special for me. We got home just before 4am, Lebo could see how much i and pam are into each other’s so he offered they will spend the night on the couch while I spend the night in his room and that just worked perfectly. First time I actually had sex with someone I talked to by myself, no payment, no time to leave and so on. Just clean sex without fear, neither did I used a condom, yeah I knew she was a little drunk but think about it, I love this girl and she is just too beautiful to be infected, I don’t believe such a beauty could be infect. HIV and Aids are not for beautiful people I guess (laughing out loud).


The next morning being Sunday the 19th December, i woke up very happy and loved for the first time. Lebo and he’s girlfriend were already up and cleaning, Lesego was sitting in the lounge with a cup of coffee, she looked at me and smiled saying “good morning” I replied “morning” and went inside my own room. Checking through my cloths looking for something to wear Lesego came in and asked me if I had fun last night, I replied yes and talked about the party, she said “I wasn’t talking about the party but with your new girl” I replied yes I did and do you have a problem with that?” she smiled and said “NO. Just though you were going to spend the night with me” with you? I replied, I turned around, took my toiletries and went to shower. I came back and she was still sitting there wait for me, while creaming my body she said to me “I hope you still remember you own me and we need time to make plans, so you better get yourself together on time” I told her I know and we can start whatever plans tomorrow, am still settling in and needed my weekend. I wore my shoe and asked her if she wanted anything because I was going to the store? She said nothing and I walked away.

I went back to Lebo’s room and pam wasn’t finish yet, so I had to join Lebo and his girl in the kitchen. Few minutes later pam came out and we headed out for the mall, we planned on having breakfast in a restaurant. We got there, made our order and while eating she asked me “ballz what do you really do for a living?” I looked at her in shock while chewing slowly and said “I do business, a little of this and a little of that” she told me she really liked me and don’t want to get caught up in a life of regrets and she also knows I don’t want to tell her the truth either do i want me to lie to her, all she wants is true love and honesty, no matter what or where, I should always tell her what is going on. I accepted and told her not to worry, If anything happens I will let her know and will never take her the wrong way, she smiled, I lined forward and we kisses and then continued eating.

At around 1pm big mike called me to ask when I was coming, coming for what I asked? he asked me if ike or eze did tell me about his get together, I told him no one told me that. Big mike told me if I remember he is leaving tomorrow for Nigeria so he is having a get together today, more like a Christmas party and everyone is gonna be there so he is expecting to see me there. I asked when its starts and he said 4pm, I told him I will be there and he hanged up. I asked pam if she will like to come with me but she couldn’t cause she leaves later today, she told me she will come see me on the 24 and spend the Christmas to make up for today party, I was ok with that, I paid the bill and we headed back to the house.

Chapter XI

I woke up the next morning with two ladies by my side; I had maximum fun last night. Had a quick shower and went to Lebo’s room, he was already awake and ready. We headed out to the spot; there was no need to go to the warehouse as I still had my stuff from yesterday.
The day started out slow, we sold about 7sachets before Lesego called, she gave me the address to the house the property manager guy found and told us she is gonna meet us there. We headed to the address to meet with the guy, we got there and saw the place and it was just what I wanted. 2bedroom house with its own garden in fordsburg it’s about 4,5km from hillbrow. I told him i will take it, Lesego came in saying “wow nice, what do you think ballz” I told her its perfect for me and I’m taking it. She told the property manager guy to draw up his contract because we are taking it and want to move in ASAP.

I headed out with lebo to the flat to get my stuff, on getting to the flat I met Eze, Lerato and Emeka watching a movie, I didn’t say a word, just got my box and headed out (it was as if I was because nobody said a word to me). I went back to the same hotel I slept the previous night to drop my stuff and went back to my spot to finish up my day.
The day went well; I sold out the rest of my stuff. At about 7pm I got to the warehouse and dropped my cash, big mike was there so I had the perfect chance to tell him about getting my own place. i requested to see him in private in his office, I told him I have gotten a place and I’m moving in tomorrow, I told him how uncomfortable I was after fred passed away and the way the rest of the boys in the house relate to me and adding, Eze is back. The environment doesn’t conducive any more, he shook his head and said good, that’s fine with him but I must at least let someone know where I stay in a case of emergency and I must be careful. He told me I can keep his car I’m using, I feel very happy as everything went as planned, just as I was about leaving he asked me where is the house located, I told him a few blocks from Fred’s flat and he said “ok” I left the warehouse and drove back to the hotel, I didn’t feel like clubbing that day so I just chilled in my room while Lebo is at his room also. At about 11pm Lesego called and told me Big Mike has confirmed his date of departure for Nigeria and he said he will leave the warehouse in Eze and Emeka’s control , Ike is leaving for Nigeria same day also and Joe will be in control of the ware house in centurion. She has also confirmed to him of leaving on Friday for home.

Everything is just falling in place for me, I guess this was supposed to be or maybe not.


The Next morning I left for the warehouse to get my stuff only to find everyone there, Big mike called me to join the meeting. He just repeated everything Lesego told me, he is leaving this coming Monday which is 20th December and 4days before Xmas. Eze and Emeka will be in charge of every ware house in Joburg and Joe will be moved to centurion for the time being. Things will remain like that till 10th January when he returns.
Everyone is happy with big mike’s decision; big mike then went inside the office and came out with a suitcase loaded with cash, he opened it and gave Eze, Emeka, Ike, Joe, sandwich and Daniel 3bundles of R100 bills and then gave me one bundle saying “you are the newest and youngest” they all laughed. I got my stuff and left for my spot, on getting there Lesego called me to meet her in Fordsburg (the house we just found). I drove there and met her and the property manager guy, he gave me the necessary document to sign and gave me the bank account information to pay in both the deposit and the rent. I immediately drove to the bank and paid a calculated rent for 6months and the deposit and went back to the house. I gave him the deposit slip and got the keys to the house, finally I got a place of my own now.
I drove back to my spot and sold out for the day, my plans is to buy things for the house the next day so probably no work for me.

sorry for not posting yesterday, had to take my daughter to the hospital but i will today. thanks for following.

CHAPTER X

I wasn’t feeling comfortable so I went down to Joe’s flat and chilled with them till the next morning being Monday.
I headed out to the gold warehouse to meet with big mike, got my stuff for the day and head to my spot. On getting there Lebo wasn’t there, I called him and he said he only got home this morning on bail as he was arrested with those white girls who normally get stuff from us on Saturday and that’s why he called me but I never showed up or returned his call, he said he will be by the spot later that evening cause he has issues to settle with his grandma who came to bail him out.

Well! I’m back at my spot and waiting for Lesego to call me, I know her plan is worth it, make a big hit at the warehouse and run. I don’t know much about this country but I have heard about Durban, cape town and also Pretoria yeah east London too cause I remember some of my white clients are from east London, maybe I would relocate there and start all over again. Probably change my name and kill every contact with both Lesego and Lerato, or maybe I would also go with lebo. Just as my silly plans are coming together Lesego called, she gave me an address of where to meet her.
I drove to the address to meet with her, I met her and a white guy who she introduced to me as the property manager and he manages that flat. Something didn’t add up there, she said it’s just perfect for us and it goes for R3,500 a month. My instincts told me something is not right about this place and how ready it is so I asked the guy if he got other properties, I could see the disappointment on Lesego’s face but at this point am sorry I can’t make any more mistakes. He said he does have other properties but not at this same block of flats, yeah am cool with that, any house anywhere just not something picked by Lesego or any woman.
He booked another viewing appointment with us later that evening and then he left, Lesego questioned me about the apartment but all I said was I don’t like that place, if you wanna really help me then let me do the picking for myself.

We both left and headed back to my spot, we sat at the park and tried to draw out a plan for the hit, I told her I’m thinking of involving Lebo and maybe some of his friends from Alexander to rob the warehouse but she didn’t agree to that, she advice we take someone down, whoever is in charge as soon as Big Michael leaves for Nigeria. It could be Emeka or Joe because Ike is also going to Nigeria to see his Family, and then I mentioned it could be Eze because he’s back, he even slept at the flat. Lesego never knew about that so she called Lerato to confirm, yes Eze is back. Hmm! I guess this is not gonna be easy as we thought Lesego said.

Lesego: I think we need to get our house first and then get other people’s weapon, like change your gun with another person’s gun at the flat or the warehouse but after we decide on who we are taking down.

I won’t lie this is scary but at this point scary is my chance; I just pray everything goes well.
We chatted and planned till about 4pm, Lebo showed up with a small box and told me his grandmom kicked him out of the house for getting caught for selling drugs. He said he was caught on Saturday evening with those white girls I supplied to on the first day on this spot, they were having a house party and needed stuff so he took some stuff and went there, he joined the partying till the cops came. He was caught in the bedroom with one of the girls having sex, drugs were found in his possession and those girls were all minors. He got a R3, 000 bail this morning and will appear in court again in 21days time, so right now he doesn’t have a house to live, he needs my help.

Lesego looked at me and said you would have taken that place and given this boy a home or what are you gonna do, I looked at Lebo and said “don’t worry brother, I will get you what you want ok”
Later that evening the building manager guy called and he gave us the address to a place to meet with him, we drove there and saw the place, it was very nice but I didn’t want it either. Why? Lesego asked, because there are just too much Nigerians in that building.
She doesn’t understand why I’m avoiding a building with a lot of Nigerians, I guess she wasn’t the one who shot Fred or will be the one people are coming after, and what if we don’t succeed we will definitely need a place no one knows to hide out for a while.
I told the property manager guy, I need something with its self-compound and garage, I don’t want a flat or a block with too many people. He understood me and said he will get something for us tomorrow
I guess that would be tomorrow I said to Lesego, I have to get this little man (Lebo) settled down and drove away.
I drove to a small hotel around and got two rooms, one for Lebo and the other for me, he told me a lot of things about his home, we smoked and drank at the hotel bar. At about 11pm, we headed to the club. I went to a different club from Summit Strip Club in Hillbrow, chilled in the VIP, got ourselves two ladies for the night each. We had maximum fun, I felt so free and alive, partying with someone who is young and thinks like me. At about 1am while drinking and dancing, I got a touch on my back and when I turned it was Lerato and Eze, he looked at me and said “my brother, what’s good” I shook my head saying “good” i walked to Lebo and the ladies and told them we have to leave I think I’m too drunk for the night and then headed out.

CHAPTER IX


I drove to the basement but didn’t get off the car, my phone rang and it was Lesego. She said Big mike is off to the warehouse and from there he will get to church so she has from now till 2pm before he gets back. She requested we meet at KFC in Eloff Street which is like 3,0km from hillbrow. I reversed out of the basement and headed to Eloff Street to meet with her at the KFC.
I got there, bought myself a cold drink (soft drink) and waited for her arrival. 15mins later she got there, apologizing for coming late. I asked her who was the guy who met with Big mike and she told me she didn’t see anybody although she heard a car drove in and heard big mike talking but she thought he was on the phone, she told me not to worry nothing is gonna happen. If anything is gonna happen big mike won’t go to church but as he went to church she is sure nothing will go down.
Well I felt a little relieved but I still don’t trust anyone at this point, so I asked her “if you didn’t see any one with big mike so why do you wanna meet” and she asked “do you know shadow and bishop?” I replied “no but I have heard the name shadow before, what about them?” she answered “Shadow used to run this town before Michael (big mike), bishop was his right hand man. They worked with every cop in Joburg, had every contact at the airport and controlled every drug transaction in Joburg. Michael started by selling weed locally until he met Johan, yeah same Johan he’s rival, Johan used to buy weed from Michael and works with bishop, so he introduced Michael to shadow and then Michael started working for shadow. He learnt every in and out of the trade and before you know he was next after bishop, he was smart and fast just like you. Shadow gave him his own house and a car, put him in control of almost everything and everyone who was there and have worked years for Shadow. That’s when it all started, the whole boys planned a coup against Michael but started by killing bishop with Michael’s gun leaving him to go to jail for that and then they killed Shadow. One by one they killed themselves in fight of power who will rule or not, few months later Michael got out of prison because there was not enough evidence to the case, he got out only to find out Shadow was dead and every one of his boys and then found out all of this was one man’s plan “Johan”. Johan plotted the killing of bishop with Michael’s gun, thinking Michael will get life in prison and then killed Shadow and his boys with solid frame around the incident so no one knows what actually happened. Like I told you Michael worked his way up so starting all over wasn’t a big deal as he already knows some suppliers, when Johan found out Michael was out of Jail he got angry and ever since then has being trying to take Michael down”

I had to stop her to ask “Lesego I do understand your story but why are you telling me all this and what do you want me to do?” she answered “Now fred is dead and Michael is going home (Nigeria) for Christmas, leaving everything to who? and what will be left of you when he comes back ballz, what? If you have forgotten you killed Fred”
(I don’t know what is wrong but I think my brain may be working wrongly, its either Lesego is after something or I don’t foresee what she does)

“ok Lesego what do you want me to do and why are you on my side” she smiled and said “you will thank me someday for what am doing but for now let’s just say you are special to me” I replied “special” and she said “yeah special” I asked “so tell me what is special about me and if am special how come you set me up the other day?” she answered “that isn’t important for now but if you want to know I never set you up, Michael called me on my way to school like I told you I school in vits, and asked me to check on you. I did and told him you were doing good” I replied “so if it was so, how come I was robbed and who gave Johan a tipoff” she answered “that wasn’t me, I think it was an inside job. I’m not sure who was with Michael when I called but whoever was there planned it. Please trust me on this, I’m sure that’s why I wanna help you. Once Michael leaves for home (Nigeria), you are going down my friend if you don’t take my advice” I replied “so what is your advice”

Lesego: “we need a big hit and leave, you, myself and lerato” I replied “ok if I understand what you are trying to say here you mean hit on Michael and run” she answered “yes that’s what I mean, there isn’t Fred at the warehouse again, so we pay someone to rob the warehouse and bring the stuff, we sell it and spilt the profit”

Ok I don’t know where this is going but I don’t think I wanna be part of it so I stood up and told her “I’m not interested” and then I left. I think that girl is crazy hey; I don’t think she sees all the issues I have before me to think of planning for more. I got into my car and drove off heading to the flat. My phone rang and it was Lesego again, I picked and she said “think about it and let me know what you think and also remember you owe me one” I hanged-up, I don’t know what her further plans may be but I have to come up with a plan also.
I got to the building, parked in the basement and headed upstairs still thinking of a perfect plan to fight Lesego with, I go to the flat, got in and found Lerato sitting with the same guy I saw driving into big mike’s place (now my mind is racing, what if it’s the cops, will they interrogate me?) I walked slowly inside and he stood up, stretched his hand forward and said “how far, na me be Eze (hello am Eze)” I looked at Lerato, turned back to him and said “ok, I don hear about you (ok, I have heard of you)” he replied “I hear every were happen, no worry I don come (I heard all that happened but am here to correct that)” i walked into my room, stood by the window and asked myself how far can I get? I pulled out my phone and dialed Lesego “Hello dear, I think I have reconsidered what you said. Am in” she replied “good, we will draw up a plan on Monday” and hanged up the phone.

Sorry for not updating yesterday, i was out of data. but will do in a few.

Saintbajar.

CHAPTER VIII

I couldn’t pick the call as I am shocked, looking at everyone with my mouth opened. Ike quickly carried fred up calling his name “FRED FRED” Emeka ran to the door, I turned and noticed Lerato was also on the floor (oh shit, did I shoot her also or what? There isn’t any blood on her but what have I done).
There was a knock on the door, I opened and it was the security asking what happened cause they heard shots. They joined Ike and Emeka to help get fred out of the door, one of the security kept telling me call the paramedics (I guess he doesn’t understand what happened or what state I was in), everything seems like a dream to me, so fast I can hardly see any body’s face clearly.
I can remember Joe coming through the door, trying to assist in getting fred downstairs. I couldn’t say a word; I followed them downstairs still holding the gun in my hand with a million thoughts passing through my head.

We got outside and the paramedics weren’t there, both ike, Emeka and the security guys kept calling them. After about 5mins the police came but the paramedics where still not there yet, ike quickly took the gun from me and dropped it in one of the post box and then went upstairs (I guess to take care of Lerato)
15mins later, the paramedics arrived and took fred, Emeka also left with them. He bled so much, I kept praying he gets through this and at the same time thoughts where running through my mind, what if he dies? Does it mean my whole secret with Lerato is dead or what if he survives? Will he come back to kill me?.
Ike told me to go to Joe’s flat and if I was asked, I should tell them I wasn’t in the flat when anything happened, he will be the only one to give statement, which would actually ease the case.

I went to Joe’s flat, thinking all through, what have I done? Sandwich offered me weed saying “this will calm your spirit” I took it and then Lerato came in, still crying.
I smoked all through till about 5am, sandwich was passed out at one point and Lerato passed out too at some point. I was still awake and still smoking hard, Emeka came in shaking his head, Lerato got up and asked him “did he make it” Emeka went into tears and said “we lost a soldier” and then walked out of the door. (Oh my GOD, I just killed fred)

Ike came in and told me I should be easy on myself and maybe try to stay away from the flat for a while if I wanna stay alive, he told me fred was a house hold name and knows a lot of people and they could come for me but I shouldn’t worry he will protect me. My phone rang again and it was big mike, I had to pick (because I can’t run from him all my life and from what Ike just told me about fred, I think I need big mike now than ever if he will accept me), I picked the call and big mike said “I want you in my house now”.

I went up to our flat, got the car keys and headed to big mike’s house. Coming to think of it, what more can I fear? Big mike shooting at me at his own house or fire me from working for him? I guess not, but the fact is I don’t know myself anymore at this point.

I got to big mike’s carport and noticed his most preferred car wasn’t there, checked myself and remembered I don’t even have my gun with me, it’s still in the post box at the flat. I guess its me against the world here.
I got in big mike’s house, knocked and went it. Lesego was in the lounge watching TV, I got in and she asked “how did that happen” i replied “it was a mistake and” before I could continue she said “I advised you to get your own place and I think you should do that ASAP” she continued advising me on how getting my own place would be. I had told her I wanna hear what Big mike has to say and then tell him about getting my own place. She laughed and told me I don’t need to let big mike know where I stay or how I got the house, all I needed was my phone to keep contact with big mike and the warehouse, she also told me I shouldn’t let the other boys know where I stay and how I run my things.
Am starting to think this girl has a bad plan but whatever it Is, am sure she won’t go far with it.

20mins into our discussion, Big mike drove in and we went quite. Lesego said “don’t worry I will call you and make arrangements”. I wasn’t interested in whatever arrangements she wants to make, all I know is my heart is racing.
Big mike came in and went straight to his room without saying anything to me; I remember he got a brown envelope with him. Lesego stood up and also went inside the room. I looked at the doors, the windows and every other part of the lounge with access outside plotting my escape.
Few minutes later Big mike came back out and looked straight into my eyes saying “So you killed your teacher?” with fear raising in me I answered “it was a mistake sir, I never meant to” he replied “so from your plan who are you killing next. ME?” I don’t know why but I went mute to answering that question.
He stood up went to his room and came out with a bottle of Johnny Walker Red Label and gave it to me saying “Drink for your success, you killed your Teacher, maybe you will be the principal but only for a while” I replied with a shaking voice “I didn’t mean to shoot him, the gun went off and” he replied “and what? He died obviously. So it’s simple you killed him” again I went mute.
Lesego came in and said “I think its fred’s fault, he got into a fight with ballz and stab him on his back so he had to defend himself with his gun. That’s what Lerato told me” big mike turned to me and asked “is that true” I had to accept showing him where I was stabbed on my back.
He looked at it and said “that explains enough, I will take care of every other thing. Just get back to work” and then he dropped the bottle of Jonny Walker on the floor in between my legs and walked out. I stood up and Lesego smiled while saying to me “you owe me one”. I went to my car sitting there thinking what should I do or where can I go to, also thinking where big mike must have been coming from this early, what’s in that file he came back with and who is he talking to as he seats inside his car.
I start the car and reversed, just as I am driving out another car pulls inside and stopped by big mike. I don’t know who that is but I know he must be the one big mike was talking to on the phone. No doubts I think I have to fall back to Lesego for updates as I drive back to the flat.

Thanks baba mi.

CHAPTER VII

We drove to the flat with a million thoughts on my mind, asking myself who was that on the phone and what do they want. I touched my gun to make sure it’s there, all i know is whatever happens, I will blow everyone’s brains off and run.
We got to the flat and found Ike, Lerato, Emeka and two other guys, no doubts I had to be prepared for what is coming so I asked what’s wrong? Ike replied “police carry Joe and him babe. Them burst them flat and him Amala there” (cops found drugs at Joe’s flat, both Joe and his girlfriend were arrested).
So what was i worried about, I’m thinking?
Fred and Ike left for the police station to sort things out, Fred was the one with all the police contact, that’s why boss likes him and keeps him close.
I went to my room and Lerato came in, it’s the first time we seeing each other after we got caught. I had to ask who those two guys are because they look scary. She replied “that’s sandwich and Daniel; sandwich is a South African from Alexandra. Well known gangster and Daniel is Nigerian, they both stay on the 4th floor with Joe and works with boss also”
Hmm! This network is bigger than I thought and I think I still have more to learn. We chatted for a few more minutes before she left.

Things kept going good for me with my new tasting strategy, those white girls call me mostly at night if they need some stuff for a home delivery, although it’s a distance driving to Sandton but what can I do, I just want anything to prove myself to big mike.
Most of my clients got my number and I hardly even stay at my spot, I do delivery up to 30km. big mike gave me one of his old Mercedes Benz c200, so I’m mobile and really known, big mike even sends me to bring him cigarettes or Johnny Walker Black if he forgets to buy, I didn’t really need fred that much even though I know he got me in his mind. I got really close to sandwich (the guy from Joe’s flat) and he introduced me to Lebo.
Lebo, a young boy who just got out of high school, also from Alexandra and couldn’t further his education cause his grandmother doesn’t have money. His parents, I don’t know of and he never talked about them. I placed Lebo at my spot and usually gave him small quantity, nobody really knows about lebo but anyway he was really helpful and makes some money for himself.
All I do is delivery, to houses, offices and even to some celebrities. I have only been here for about 3months and feel like a boss of my own, saved over R30,000, sent money home to my folks and also updated my myspace.com account with new pictures so you know how I feel right now.

It’s now two weeks before Christmas, exactly 11th of December 2004. Big mike leaves for Nigeria in a week’s time and so is Emeka and Ike to see his wife back home, so everything is gonna be left to me and fred. I don’t know what is gonna go down but whatever it is, I am ready for it.
Boss called me later that evening while I was driving back from Bryanston, he wanted me to get to his house, pick up some cash from Lesego and bring it back to him at the warehouse. No stress about that, I got to big mike’s house and asked Lesego for the money, she gave it to me and then told me to sit down we needed to talk, yeah I replied we really need to talk and i sat down.
I asked her about the robbery and if she thought I will never find out about her being involved and she responded “I know about you and Lerato” WHAT! I replied. She went on “yeah I know everything, the sex and getting caught by Fred. I know everything, Lerato told me, we are friends and she brought me into this family so we talk about everything and i met Lebo, I guess you don’t want big mike knowing about that also”.
I was so confused and short of words, I had to ask her “so what are you gonna do about it? Tell ike?” she replied “no dear, I won’t if you don’t tell boss I was at your spot few minutes before you got robbed” .
Without a doubt I had to agree, I mean things are going fine with i and big mike, I won’t like to spoil that either.
I stood up and just about leaving, she walked close to me and said “I think you have gotten enough now, why don’t you get your own flat. That’s one mistake every other person makes and only gets to realize later” she kissed my cheek and said it would be good for us.

I drove back to the warehouse, thinking about what Lesego just said and trying to figure out where she’s going with it, I don’t wanna get involved with that girl; I think I have enough secrets to want to make more.
I got to the warehouse, gave boss the money and headed to the flat. Just getting inside the flat I got a call from Lebo but couldn’t make out what he’s saying, all I know he’s speaking fast and troubled. I hope that bitch Lesego hasn’t done anything to my boy.
Without dropping anything, I headed out the tuck shop at the corner of the street to get airtime.

I got to the tuck shop and it was closed, just as I turned heading back to the building two guys confronted me with a knife saying “ekse bra, give me your phone or I will stab you” with the shock I pulled out my gun, pointed it to them and pulled the trigger twice.

Unfortunately the gun didn’t work (oh shit), I took off running towards the building. Screaming loud as I run, I got inside the building still holding the gun, got to the flat so fast giving everyone a shock. I felt cold and shaking, Ike asked “watin happen and why you hold gun” (what happened and why are you holding a gun), I quickly explained to him still breathing fast. Lerato screamed “you are bleeding on your back”. I just noticed I was stabbed twice on my back while running.
Quickly Lerato got a towel with water, while cleaning my back fred came in from the bathroom asking “why una de shout” (why are you shouting) and Emeka replied “Them almost rob am” (he was robbed) and replied “but you hold gun, why you no shoot” (you have a gun with, why didn’t you shoot at them), and I answered “de gun no de work” (the gun doesn’t work).

I faced the gun forward and pulled the trigger twice again and it didn’t work, I don’t know why but fred kept accusing me of doing something wrong that’s why the gun jammed, he went on talking about how I could go around sleeping with other people’s girlfriends but to defend myself I couldn’t. i could feel the fear on Lerato’s hand shaking as she wiped the blood on my back, I pulled up the gun again and tried it while responding to fred “it’s not my fault the gun doesn’t work”. At the same time Ike was asking who’s person’s girlfriend did he sleep with, so as Fred is shouting on me. Emeka added “the safety is up, it’s supposed to be down” but no one heard as we were all shouting, I could remember Lerato’s voice behind me as she cried. Emeka pulled down the safety while I was pulling the trigger, showing Fred the gun doesn’t work and then everyone went silence

I looked on the floor and there he was, Fred lying on the floor soaked in blood, my ears making a crackling noise and my phone rang, I pulled it out and looked at the screen. It was Big Mike calling.

CHAPTER VI

The next morning I got up early and hoped fred never came back, I went to the bathroom to freshen up and coming out to the lounge, there he was sitting, Fred (the devil himself as my mind called him), I was so shocked I had to greet him “Good morning Bros”. He looked at me and said are you done, I replied yes I am. He stood up and said “make we go” (let’s go)
I grabbed the car keys and we headed out to the warehouse, I didn’t say anything all through as he drove to the warehouse (ok to make this easy, I will call the first warehouse “Gold” and the second one I was at yesterday “silver”). We got to the silver warehouse and big mike was there, we greeted and he said to me, “we have decided to take you away from the spot and put you in the warehouse” before I could even smile to that, fred replied “No boss, him no go learn that way. Make we leave am for Jude spot. Nothing go happen”(no boss, he won’t learn faster that way, we should leave him at that spot. I will protect him) big mike replied “but we agreed yesterday to take him from that spot and replace with someone from the warehouse” fred answered “I think am again, no worry I go give am gun. Anybody where do anyhow, make him show am anyhow” (I thought about it and feel he should remain there, I will give him a gun and that would also protect him). Big mike then said “good idea, I think that could work”.

Fred walked to the office inside the warehouse, big mike also walked away. When Big mike came back he gave me R300 and said “in case you need anything” he also gave me his number and told me “SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO BE INVISIBLE, MAKE PEOPLE KNOW YOU AND SEE YOU IMPORTANT AND LATER MAKE THEM FORGET YOU AND THINK OF YOU DEAD” and I replied “thank you sir”. Fred came back and handed a gun to me and said “this na P14 45” (that’s a P14 45), he showed me how to cock the gun, pull out and put back the cartridge and then said lets go.
We left with my eyes looking at big mike if he will change his mind and call me back but I was wrong that didn’t happen. I got to my spot and I got off the car hoping Fred will say something but he didn’t, he drove away only saying I will pick you by 5pm. 5pm I thought? And its only 10am now, that’s a very long time.
I got inside the park and sat on one of the swing thinking in fear, if what happened yesterday will repeat itself. I then thought of a good idea, to keep the drugs away from me so even if I get robbed, it will just be cash and my phone alone. So I dogged somewhere around the swing and placed the little bag there containing 35 sachets and put the remaining 5sachets in my pocket.
I remember pulling out the gun every 30mins demonstrating what I will do if anyone comes around (laughing out loud, I know in me am too scared to do that. you know that time in your thoughts where you feel like those guys in the movies? Yeah! That was me right there).

At about half passed 11am, an Audi pulled over at the park filled with white girls. One of them got out and headed towards me, I pulled out the gun and held it at my back thinking, if Johan is white then he works with white people so probably here they are again. One girl came to me and said “do you know where Jude Street is” Jude Street? I replied, she said “yah Jude Street”. I answered NO, I think you are lost, there isn’t any Jude street around here (sounding like I know all over). She then said “thank you” and walked away.
5mins later, another dirty looking guy driving a Mercedes Benz came and asked me same question as those girls. I shouted at him, there isn’t any Jude street around here (holding my gun firmly behind me, I can’t take any chance). He left without talking further.
Today is really going bad, not even one sachet sold and it’s already 2pm. Just as I am thinking Emeka called and asked me how things are going over here (I don’t know how he got the number, but it was all cool). I told him honesty; things are going bad, not even one sachet sold. Everyone coming here kept asking me silly questions. He Replied “don’t worry my brother, na so e de be by this time of the week” (that’s how business is by this day of the week), and “if anybody ask of Jude tell them say Jude no well so you de help am out” (if anyone asks about Jude, I should tell them he is sick and I’m helping out) and then he hanged up.
Ok wait, this is Jude’s spot and those girls asked of Jude’s Street. Oh stupid me, I quickly stood up and walked to the road side hoping to see their car but they were already gone.

At about half passed 3, that dirty looking guy came back and from a distance I called him. He walked to me and I asked him if he was looking for Jude? He said yes and that was Jude’s code (always ask of my street). Oh ok, I told him Jude was sick and am helping out. He bought 3sachets and headed out,
Few minutes later those white girls came back and walked straight to me, and told me they wanted 3sachets but they wanted Jude kind of stuff cause its good stuff, I told them it was good stuff but they were not convinced and wanted a taste first.
I got one sachet out and with a small drinking straw she pulled out a little and dragged it with her nose. She replied with her eye closed “hmmm Jude stuff” And then bought the 3sachets, she took my number and said I will call you and then left.
Hmmm! That was easy I thought looking at the sachet she took from, maybe this would be my new style. I will pay for one sachet myself, buy straws and cut it into small parts. Whoever wants to buy be it old or new client, I have tasting for them.
I sold a couple more bags and at 5:10pm, Fred was there to pick me. Awesome day for me, I left the warehouse with 40sachets and only going back with 6.
We drove without saying one word to each other until Fred’s phone rang

Talking on the phone:
Fred: Hello, aw far (hello, how are you), yes him de here with me. I de bring am come no worry you go see us now (yes his here with me, I’m bring him to you)

Thanks Tim, really appreciate.

CHAPTER V


I stood at the window, thinking what have I done? First, I was almost caught and now I was actually caught. Lerato walked towards me and asked “so what are you going to do now” I replied, what am I gonna do or what are we gonna do? She answered, No. what are you going to do cause am safe, nothing will happen to me. I work under the same umbrella as him and know as much as he does.
I turned and replied to her, and then if you work under the same umbrella as him so do i. she laughed and said, I just got back from Durban and I cashed in complete, I have never made a mistake before and I’m one of boss’s favorites.
Standing at the window confused and thinking she brought me into this and now balling out on me, So I asked: What can I do? fred is like the second to the boss and probably a hit man, what can I do to him? (Adding, my first day at work I messed up and ended up doing worst, getting with you, I should be probably dead anyway).
She replied. I could help you, I could call Eze. He’s the second in charge after boss and listens to me, (wait, Eze. Who is he and where is he. I never heard anything about him before and how is he the second in charge after boss).
So I asked: Who is Eze and where is he? if he could do something then what are you waiting for? She replied: Eze runs the warehouse in Centurion. He used to run every warehouse here and kills everyone that crosses his way. Fred is scared of him, we used to date until he killed two cops working with Johan and then boss moved him to centurion and brought fred here. Fred was very interested in me but I turned him down because he is a big womanizer and I found more interest in Ike. Eze used to live in this house alone with me, while Emeka and Ike stayed on the 4th floor with Joe before the turn around and then fred was moved here. Ever since I started dating ike, fred has been on my case and tried every move to have me, So you see why he is mad at you and will go miles to Bleep you up big time.
Am just confused and trying to think fast, if Eze knows am sleeping with his girl this would probably go wilder than this, I looked at Lerato and walked away, went into my room and waited for the worst to happen.


Later that evening, I’m sitting on my bed thinking and waiting for the worst. Ike came back to the flat; he came into my room and asked me what’s wrong? I replied “nothing, am just refreshing my mind” he told me about similar issues and how happy I should be being alive. I smiled and told him I will be fine, he walked out and went to his room. Few hours later Emeka came in and called my name “Ballz where you de” (ballz where are you), I replied “inside the room”, he came in and told me Fred called him and told him everything. Am not sure what Fred told him but hearing Fred’s name frightened me.
He went on talking about his experiences the first time and other similar experiences; he then left the room to join Ike. Few minutes later he called me to join them in the lounge and offered me a bottle of beer; I took it and sat with them. My eyes couldn’t stop looking at the door imagining Fred walking in and what Ike’s reaction will be when he finds out.
They kept talking about the issue and what I should have done; I guess they don’t understand because they weren’t there. As much as I tried to pay attention to what they were talking about, my mind couldn’t, all I kept thinking about is what will happen. They went on advising and giving suggestions “bla bla bla bla” as they talked, till the point Emeka mentioned “maybe we should give him a gun” a gun my mind thought, I could get a gun that would just be awesome, I could take all of them down and run if anything happens. I asked Emeka “where is the gun” he replied, “I go tell Fred to give you one when him show” (I will ask fred to give you a gun when he comes back). I guess this people do not understand what am going through, the name FRED is what I don’t wanna hear or see.
We chatted and drank till about 10pm that night, Fred wasn’t back and that kept me worried. Although the tension in me has reduced but I know something will definitely go down. I Went back to my room and slept off.

CHAPTER IV

Few Hours After The Robbery.

Confused and wandering around the park, fred arrived and asked how far (how are you). I replied busting into tears, i dont wanna work anymore, please help me, i couldnt fight him cause he had a gun. Fred asked what happened, i explained and he replied with anger in his voice. When did dis happen? I told him 2hours back and why didnt you call me he asked?, i figured out if i say i dont have a phone that will bring more issues to the table so i said he took everything, including my phone and my money and also my room key. He replied: so you lock your room door? Are you ok, but anyway that isnt a problem that room lock doesnt work so forget the key. (oh shit. Now it hits me, how did he get into the room the other day while i was hiding from ike? oh my GOD so i was hiding in vain. Ike could easily enter the room if he was coming for me). Ok lets go Fred said. We got into the car and on the way he told me if boss asks, tell him you already sold 5stuff and the guy took the money too, your phone and your money. He then asked me how much is your money (i dont even have 1cent on me at that time and i couldnt think fast so i just said what came to my mind first) R800 i replied. He then said dont worry boss will do something about it.
Still scared, we drove to another warehouse and big mike was there, fred explained everything as i told him. Big mike looked at me and said, dont worry my boy everything will be fine, he gave me R1,000 and took me with him. We drove to a store and he bought me a Sony-Ericsson K700i (that phone was the bomb dot com in that year) with a voda-fone sim, and we headed to his house. Getting inside the house only to see Lesego sitting in the lounge, then it hits me again. I was robbed 10mins after she left and she said she was off to school. How come she is here now. What kind of school comes with a name vits, Sounds like baby food to me. Am sure this bitch just set me up, i thought she was an angel as she looks. “What the Bleep”, boss must know about this. She is definitely going down.

Just sitting there staring at her with blood in my heart, all I know is she’s going down. I just want to get back to the warehouse and tell Fred about her and what I think about her being involved with the robbery.
Few minutes later, big mike came out of his room and we headed out back to the warehouse where we left fred. I was quite all through and feeling down, they must be looking at me screwing up on my first day all because of Lesego. We got to the warehouse and big mike asked fred what do we have?
He responded, its Johan’s boys. They got a tipoff that we got a new person on that spot and I think it’s an inside job.
Now my thoughts are coming together, its Lesego, It just has to be. She gave them the tip off and came to confirm if I was really there.
Few minutes later fred told me to go home and rest for the day, they got some job to take care of. For the first time he gave me his BMW to drive home all by myself only giving me directions, and he said to me again “you will be fine” and then left with big mike..
I drove back to the flat with the directions I was given and to be honest, I never thought I would get it right but it was very easy, I wasn’t scared of getting caught by the cops or anything, all I wanted was to get to the flat and sleep. Getting to the flat, ike was alone in the lounge.
He asked what happened and I explained the story to him, he felt sorry and told me to be happy I wasn’t hurt, in most cases they find the person dead or badly stabbed.

I got myself a beer from the fridge, kept it on the table and went to the bathroom. Ike said “I’m going back to work, I came to check bla bla bla bla” I didn’t hear the remaining things he said cause he was out of the door and talking to me as he walked through the passage. But whatever, how important can it be.
I sat in the lounge drinking my bottle of beer and thinking about what had happened that morning still traumatized, I just can’t wait for fred to be back and hear about Lesego’s part of the story.
At about 2pm, there was a knock on the door and when I opened it was Lerato, “hello lerato” I said and she replied “hi ballz, how are you and why are you home at this time?. Where is ike”(calling ike with her South African accent). I told her he said he was off to work and I had a bad day. So I had to come home.

She dropped her bag, came to sit with me in the lounge and asked what happened?. Without thinking twice I told her I was robbed and lost a lot, she replied “robbed?” and i answered yes. She then asked, did they take the powder from you? Hmmm! It hit me again, I turned and looked at her replying “powder” what do you know about that powder. She looked at me as she giggled. Come on, why are you acting shocked? We are family here and we all work together. I just came back from Durban, I took some stuff there.
Hmm! Ok, now I understand why she never left after finding out ike was married with kids back home. She works with boss also, so we all work under the same umbrella.

We chatted and drank together for a few more minutes, she said wait, went to the room came back and said ike isn’t coming back till 8pm, I just called so what do you think? I replied, think? I guess he’s busy. She smiled while she took of her dress and said “don’t tell me you didn’t enjoy this and don’t you want more?” No doubts I enjoyed it the last time and I think it would relief me from the traumatized state. I pulled her closer; she sat on me with her legs spread around me, kissing and caressing. She rides me nonstop with this feeling going from my head to my toes; I just wish that moment never came to an end.
All of a sudden I heard a voice saying “INTERESTING”. I pushed lerato away and there he was, walking slowing from the door, lerato picked her clothes and ran to the room, I quickly pulled up my boxers and jean, Fixing my belt and saying “fred is not what you think” he replied no, its not what I think, it’s what I saw. Or what do you wanna say, it’s the devils work? I no think so (I guess not). He giggled, you are fucking Ike’s girl, in same house where he stays, with the door not locked with keys (oh shit lerato didn’t lock the door after she pulled her bag inside).
I just stood there looking at him without words to say,

Fred: so one day you will also Bleep my wife and boss’s wife too behind our backs. You de mad for your head (you are insane)

He pulled out my phone from his pocket and dropped it on the chair (oboy I think I forgot it at the warehouse and it never crossed my mind) and then walked away saying to me “you fit continue from where you stop, I no sure say you don cum, so better go cum” (you can go ahead with what you were doing).

CHAPTER III

A tap on my hand, “mutherfucker wake up” I got up in a rush and fear but it was fred, he asked me why I covered myself with a big blanket in this heat, are you ok, he asked. I shook my head and exhale, he told me it’s Monday and over the weekend new stuff arrived so we have to start off early. I took my bath and got dressed in a rush, I just wanted to leave the house before ike sees me, every time I go to the bathroom or the kitchen I kept looking at ike’s door hoping it won’t open.
We headed out to the warehouse and on the way fred looked at me and asked what happened between myself and lerato (ike’s girlfriend) I said nothing, we dropped off Emeka at his spot and while myself and fred drove back to the warehouse he looked at me and said, ike’s girl just found out he’s married back home with 2kids, so she confronted him and found out its true. That’s why all the noise yesterday.
Oboy, there I was thinking it was my entire fault. I could have killed myself only to find out from heaven I wasn’t part of it. Bleep me! But same time poor girl, so she probably used me to cool off from her findings Ehya. (Shame!!!).


The Next Day.

Few days later, things have really settled down and I feel very much comfortable again at the flat, Lerato (Ike’s girlfriend) was still there. I don’t know why or what they concluded but something tells me she got plans but every other person feels very comfortable. Maybe am just being over protective about nothing.
Later that evening after work (as they call it) we all headed to big mike’s house as normal to deliver and there she was again, big mike’s girlfriend. (black beauty with a touch of spicy brown, her hot legs left my mouth hanging open and her perfect DD breast size), Sitting in the lounge with big mike. We all greeted and as usual they left to the room to do their business leaving me and big mike’s girl in the lounge, we chatted freely and I got her name “Lesego” I enjoyed her conversation or is it that she likes me (I’m thinkin). They all came back and without a change she continued chatting with me, (I think am just raising myself too high). South Africans are very free unlike us Nigerians. You can’t just talk to your boss’s wife about anything “WHAT” you could lose your job for that but over here its different, everyone is free.
Big mike looked at me and said to fred how far has he gone, fred replied he’s just perfect now. He knows almost every spot and the signs. He could differentiate buys, cops and our rivals (oh wait rivals, nobody told me about that). Then big mike said ok you start work tomorrow, don’t disappoint me, fred argued it, he said to big mike maybe we could still give him alittle more time to learn more. Big mike replied, and live in a free house, eat free food and drive in my free car. No he starts tomorrow; he has been staying at your flat for almost a week, worked with you over 3weeks and been in this country almost 2months, what more does he want? Me giving him breast milk? Tomorrow give him Jude’s spot and a small quantity for a start.
I wasn’t ready to start anything but I wanted to prove myself and I am desperate to make some money and live like fred so I’m somehow happy and scared all at once. We left and headed back to the flat.
The next morning being Tuesday, before we headed out, fred taught me some rules like:

Your product is your marketing.
This Amala (drugs) is more important than you. Even if you see the cops dont throw It away, cause we can get you out from the cops but can’t get back the Amala(drugs) if you throw it away.
Create your own skills but make sure it doesn’t backfire and don’t fall for the girls cause they are all ready to Bleep you as much as you want for one sachet.

We headed out and dropped Emeka first, and then I, 45mins from Emeka’s spot in a street called “Louis Botha Avenue”, fred said just hang around, you can take a walk, sit at the park. If there is anything just call me, I don’t even have a phone yet and I never told him I don’t. I just said ok with fear in me. Just before he drove off he said, don’t fear the cops, nor the blacks or the white, just stay away from the coloreds, you will be fine my brother and then he drove off. Now he put more fear in me instead of helping me, who the hell is colored, how do they look like and how do I know them.
There I was, sitting at a park with a small bag of drugs, R200 a sachet worth R8,000, thinking who the enemies are and who this colored people are. 15mins later a gray Mercedes benz pulled over and there she was again walking towards me, Lesego, boss’s girl. Hmm interesting, I said it she is interested in me (am thinking again), she walked up to me and said hello young man with fear in his eyes, I smiled and replied, am not scared, am just tired of sitting here. She laughed and said. I have been with Michael (big mike) for 3months, I know everything about this deal and used to work for him as a tester and i know when a person is scared. Now I am here, what are you scared of?
I saw an opportunity to know more so i better ask, I replied to her, who are the rivals and what does colored mean?. She smiled and said anybody who looked mixed, black and white are called colored, they talk in a different accent and speak mostly Afrikaans (now that’s a new one, how do I know Afrikaans speakers. everyone that doesn’t speak English or Nigerian language sounds the same to me). And the enemies are Johan boys, Another big drug dealer but he’s white and all his boys are colored so stay away from them. Any other thing?, I replied no but how did you find me, she replied this used to be Jude’s spot and I school in vits so I drive by here every day. And then she left.
All I had in my mind is trying to find a colored person from a distance and run nothing more nothing less. If fred is scared of them, I should be far away from them. 10mins later a black guy dressed nicely walked to the park, sat on the other end and gave me the sign. i returned the sign and he walked towards me and asked in a funny Indian accent to me, what kind bra. I replied I don’t understand, what do you want and he pulled out a gun. And said “War is dit, Ek sal you skit, fok yo” he kept repeating that over and over again, looking at the gun on my chest i went blank, listening to him from inside still saying “War is dit, Ek sal you skit, fok yo”. He pulled the bag from my hand and ran. I was dumbfounded for another 40 seconds before i realized he has just left with boss’s stuff. Oh boy am so screwed.

CHAPTER II

As I slowly opened my eyes, I could see the bright sun shining through the window and as i tried to standup my head felt very heavy. I got up and noticed I was naked and right next to me a girl sleeping without clothes, “oh shit” I said, she opened her eyes and said “baby are you fine” I didn’t reply and how come she calls me baby when I don’t even know who she is. I got up, found my clothes on the floor and wore it, then I discovered a box of condoms on the floor, I picked it up but noticed it wasn’t opened. I walked to the bathroom, washed my face and went to the sitting room. I found another girl lying on the couch covered with a blanket but her clothes were on the floor, I turned to the open plan kitchen and there was Ike, making noodles. He laughed at me and said “oboy you be character” (you got act). I smiled right back at him and went back to the room, stood by the room window looking out to the busy street thinking what the Bleep happened. 20mins later, I thought about waking the girl on my bed maybe she could help me out with clues, I got into the blanket touched her and she turned around and said “baby am still sleeping, we can Bleep later”(wow Bleep late) I answered her, no dear can we please talk, I need your help. She turned around and said what help. Ok now first of all I don’t know your name nor what happened, please help me out. She replied, you picked us up from the club, I went with you, my friend with fred and the other one with the big guy (she referred to ike I think) and the other one with your other brother(referring to Emeka). Now the picture is getting clear, the girl in the sitting room is with Emeka and sure the other two guys has theirs in their rooms. She said fred stopped by the garage and bought some condoms and when we got to the room i reminded you, don’t you want to use the condoms, you didn’t reply and just went inside of me for two good rounds.

Oh shit, what the Bleep have I done I’m thinking? I stood up, went to the bathroom,had a quick bath and still thinking what the Bleep happened.
Few hours later fred called me “ballz make we commute” (lets go), got into the car and we headed to the house where the drugs are being prepared or made if I can say (he called it warehouse). today is different, it wasn’t just me and fred, there were 2 other south african girls who fred told me are the testers, 2guys who just arrived from Brazil with new stuff as he said and 4 other guys who worked for boss too. The girls did their part and then it was divided into small parts in those sachets. Fred took some stuff and we headed to distribute, I remember fred showing me road signs, traffic light (robot as south Africans calls it) direction boards and so on. Later that evening we went to see this guy I never got his name, gave him my passport and in less than 15mins there it was my driver’s license (international driver’s license for Nigerians). Now back to earlier on at the warehouse I just remembered, while at the warehouse two guys came in and got R5,000 from fred, he told me those are cops but no worries they work with us. Ok now back to where I stopped, we hit back driving home and stopped at the bottle store to buy some drinks and at romans pizza to get food for those girls back home. On the way home I told myself nobody judged me for yesterday so why should I judge myself, I guess everyone is like me, so I should live to the fullest and hustle to the last just to be like fred or maybe boss someday.

That night we drank, watched football and at night bleeped that same girl as hard as I could without condoms. Whats to fear, I already did it the night before so if am to die or make her pregnant I should have last night, what is the difference now.
The next morning being Sunday, I wokeup happy and better than the previous day. Only to find out there was no one home aside I and the 4girls. I never got any of their names, all I know is we called them baby, they called us that also. (Laughing out loud) isn’t that nice. Everyone is gone to church aside me; I was sitting in the lounge with a bottle of Heineken in my hand and a half naked girl lying down on the other side (wearing only bra and panties). So I thought while watching music on channel O, if these girls were picked up randomly from the club and no one knows their names as we called them “baby”, which means they are prostitutes and will be paid so I could likewise do what I want with anyone of them. Hmmm! Ike’s girl has just the perfect ass and nice looking breasts, and then as I was thinking about her, there she is, passing to the kitchen to get a soft drink (cold drink as they called it) wearing a short jean skirt and bra alone. wow, south African girls are just magical, she greeted me “hi baby, am still feeling babalased” and giggled, I replied and started chatting with her (not knowing what babalas means but it sounded cool). You know, am young and cute with a lot more to say than these other guys (I was thinking). Hey I think I was right about that, because I followed her back to the room, sweet talked her and bleeped her super nicely. “Hehehe, am the boss now”.
Later that day we dropped my girl, fred and Emeka’s girl off. I asked fred what about ike’s girl, he replied, that one na ike wife (meaning ike’s girlfriend) oboy, now am confused ike’s girlfriend. How come? I thought my girl said they were all together?. And if she’s really his girlfriend why did she give it to me so easy. Now am worried again, just after 2days here, I’m gonna have a problem with someone and again I bleeped the girl without condoms, what if she gets pregnant? Oh Gheeez. My bad.
Anyway, on the way home we went to see this guy in a very remote building still here in hillbrow and fred told him guy you need to move from this town as soon as possible. Boss go kill you if him know say you still de town, (meaning you need to move, boss will kill you if he knows you are still in town). That was jude, young looking dude at his early twenties. He bleeped big mike’s ex- girlfriend and didn’t deliver the right amount for a month, and when I asked so what happened to the girl. Fred looked at Emeka, they smiled and said the same time “dead”. Oh boy, now am thinking I just bleeped ike’s girlfriend, what if he finds out, what will happen to me? Hmm!. We got back home and there they were, ike and his girlfriend shouting at themselves in the room. (Am so dead I thought) few minutes later, fred called me into his room and asked me:

Fred: you talk to ike wife (did you talk to ike’s girlfriend)
Me: yes but no oh, we no do anything (yes but we didn’t do anything)
Fred: who talk about doing anything? You well so? (Who asked you about doing anything?)
Me: sorry.
Fred: just leave ike alone to night, we go sort am out tomorrow.
Me: ok

I walked out straight to my room, locked my door with keys and sat on my bed all night thinking, how did he find out and what is he gonna do to me. I looked out of the window, but there isn’t any way out, how could there be, it’s the 6th floor. I was asking myself, before it gets worst should I get my bag and walkout now, the earlier the better. But same time where can I go to and how will I even get there.
I sat on the bed all night, listening to every sound made within the house. Asking myself when is the time and how will it happen. With a gun, a knife or with his hand, he’s a really big guy by size. I took my nail cutter and put in my pocket, thinking once it goes down, am gonna stab him and run. I waited every second, minute and hours till I passed out.



********THE END OF CHAPTER TWO**********

This is a diary of a 21 years old Nigerian boy called “Obiora Amadi” who arrived in Hillbrow, Johannesburg. South Africa, in September 2004 to live with his uncle who appeared famous and rich as a business man back home in Nigeria to his friends and family only to find out he’s Hillbrow’s biggest drug lord.

CHAPTER I.

A few days after living with his uncle big mike (known for the name cause of his body size), Obiora was introduce to big mike’s right hand man Fred.
Obiora says: he took me out 4days after my arrival, in one of my uncle’s expensive car. We went to different places giving people things and got money from them. He showed me a couple of signs made when it’s time to deliver and get money and also introduced me to a lot of people. Few weeks later he took me to another house and showed me some white powder he called (Amala). He told me never to take it in my mouth or my noise but its good and it’s meant for rich people. He showed me a small white plastic he said it’s called a sachet. Am not dumb nor from the village so I know exactly what those are, but am not sure of what I’m getting myself into. I remember asking my uncle later that evening when am I gonna see his office, I told him I’m ready to learn business from him and grow from there. I also remember telling him I don’t trust Fred, “I THINK HE IS DOING SOMETHING ASIDE WORKING FOR YOU” I didn’t mention drugs cause I don’t wanna get fred into any problem with my uncle.
My uncle looked at me and said, don’t ever call me uncle again and looked back at the TV.
Few minutes later 4boys came in, including fred and after they greeted, my uncle turned to me and said. From today you will only call me “Big Mike” not uncle and your name will be ballz, everyone laughed and I smiled seeing myself as a brand new person with a good life ahead of me. Big mike (as he asked me to call him) then said to me, I hope you have learnt a lot from fred? And I answered yes sir. He then added, from today you will live with the other boys in Yeoville (the next city to hillbrow). From there you will learn more and understand this business better as the other boy. He then asked, or don’t you want to make money?
I answered him yes I sure want to, that is why I am here. He replied that is why we all are here.

They all left me in the sitting room and went to my room still at my uncle’s place. Few minutes later the other boys came in but without Fred or Big mike, I guess they have some extra discussion.
15mins later both Fred and big mike came looking bright and smiling, fred turned to me and said boy in Nigerian vernacular saying “guy make we go” (meaning my friend let’s leave). I got in, fetch my box and just as we were about leaving a very beautiful girl with nice curves, wearing black bumpshorts and spaghetti top (without a bra) came out from big mike’s room and went to the kitchen, I looked at her lustfully but fred held me by the neck and said lets go.
We got in one of the cars (I think it’s a blue 3series) and drove off to Yeoville, playing Nigerian music while they discussed about this dude by the name Jude, I didn’t add to the conversation cause I don’t know who they are talking about or what happened with the dude.. I remember looking out of the window, looking at the cars and the girls in the streets. We stopped in this dark street where we met with this guy, Fred gave him R200 as I remember and got something from him, fred then passed it to me cause I was sitting right next to him in the front seat. I quickly looked at it and found out it was weed or swazi as he called it. Yeah personally I have smoked weed a number of times back in Nigeria but it isn’t really my thing. We then drove to the flat in a very tall building; I remember getting excited entering the elevator cause back home only very rich people go to places with elevators. We got into the flat on the 6th floor which is the last floor, got into the house and settled down. Fred showed me my room and said boss said you use the room alone. I was very happy, kept my bag and joined them back in the lounge. The other 3 guys introduced themselves (Emeka, ike and joe), fred got some beer from the fridge, I remember it was Heineken, passed one to me and to the other guys. We drank and watched supersport on satellite TV (DSTV), fred took one sachet from the bag of weed and so did ike, Emeka doesn’t do weed and joe only smokes cigarettes. I wanted to seem cool so I took one but couldn’t get it wrapped and fred did it for me. We smoked and drank a few more bottles of beer as they continued talking about the Jude of a dude. Few hours later things are starting to get funny in my head cause of the weed and beer, I mean I smoked weed once in a while and drank beer but not this much and not such strong weed. I remember starting to watch everyone one by one thinking in my head, I don’t need to make a mistake now, I don’t want this guys to see me as a jerk or small boy (underage) as they call it. So I act carefully in whatever I do or say, I remember giggling anytime they discussed towards me.

Few hours later fred told me to wear my shoes cause I was on pumps, that we are going out. Still feeling high and trying to be conscious of what I’m doing, I got into the room wear my sneakers and tagged along. On the way out, I noticed joe stopped on the 4th floor and ike said “my brother na tomorrow e go be na” (meaning I will see you tomorrow). We got into the car and drove to a street with a lot of people outside, we got off the car and headed north, I remember the long line of people in the front of the building but we never stood at those, we went straight into the building. I remember picking the name outside even though I was still feeling high and having blurry vision, it was a place called Summit Club, hmm! Nice when we got inside, only to find out it’s a stripers club. Fred was much known there because every table we passed by he was highly greeted, we found a table, and he bought a bottle of jack Daniel’s and something called appletizer I could remember. I drank and danced endlessly till I blackedout, poooooo. Gone, I can’t remember shit, nothing, nothing at all of that night.
