After roaming on a lonely way alone for an hour, I saw two people returning from the farm. "Hello ma, does this road lead to mama biggie's farm?" I asked to be sure I am on the right road.

"Yes, keep walking ahead, though the farm is far", a response from one of them. I was relieved, the road is too quiet no wonder the elders do not want me to come alone. Waiting for Bianca is like waiting for tomorrow that would never come.

Thereupon, walking for another 30 minutes, I was already tired but I was determined to never give up. I saw two men coming, they looked innocent, we walked past each other. They shouted, "madam stop there!" This can't be me, I said and took a step forward. One of the gentlemen dragged my hand and raised his hand to slap me, but he was cautioned by his fellow.

"Madam Lola, you are on your way to see mama, no problem! We shall take you to her", the other man sounds persuasive. I was wondering how he knows my name and where I am going, still, I can't trust him.

  • FACELESS FUTURE   Thirty

    Mr. Seye could not reckon that his wife harbored such impressions about him, he couldn't blame her much because he also had such a judgment against Mr. Peter.

Tonia has what she the legal wife does not have. She was determined to ask for Tonia's forgiveness and apologize to her husband for her rude behaviour towards him earlier.Mr. Seye entered the room, and pretended like he didn't hear any of the arguments between the ladies, he gently went to bed because the wife acted like she was sleeping. She didn't know how to face her husband though, she thought her husband did not hear her earlier, but she felt miserable within.Maybe because families have begun to ask her the 'WHY' question as if she can produce a baby by herself. They seem to have forgotten that her marriage is only thirty-s

  • FACELESS FUTURE   Twenty Nine

    A week after Tonia moved into her new apartment, she started trading. She made a kiosk outside where she displayed her goods and there was a good turnover.She has helped her mother out managing the store countless times, she knew how to grow a business from scratch because her mother taught her the principle that connects buying and selling of goods before she slept in glory.Slowly and steadily her business began to grow, most people in the neighbourhood preferred to patronise her because of how fresh most of her goods are, and also she sells at an affordable price, she's not part of those that hike up the price of the stock. Though, she buys in small quantities.Her co-tenants were happy to have her watching over the house while they were away. They love how hardworking she is and also how cheerful and vibrant she has in no time turned the compound.Tonia stayed two months without contacting Mama, she went to the market, as usual, to buy what she will sell. She felt it would be al

  • FACELESS FUTURE   Twenty Eight

    Mama Agnes' final phrase struck Tonia's spirit if only Mama Agnes knew she wouldn't be returning anytime soon. She assumed she heard Mama's voice calling out to her, so she intensified her walk. She was lucky at the bus stop, the cab needed just one more passenger to occupy the last seat. She kept her load inside the boot and filled the leftover spot. It's common for drivers to tell their passengers to enter with change, to avoid fighting on the road. Though the driver forgot to inform her, she had the exact amount to pay without wasting each other's time at the bus stop.She left the house when the cloud still had a shade of darkness in it. By the time she arrived at her destination, the sun had shone brightly all over the space. She got to the new apartment, there were four tenants in number and occupied room two.She knew Mama would have seen the letter, she wanted to hear her voice before she pulled the sim into the phone. She was scared of reaching her, she felt she left too soon

  • FACELESS FUTURE   Twenty-Seven

    She moved a few of her things to mama's room and the ones that are too heavy for her to move to her new place, she sold at a giveaway price. The other tenants were surprised by her actions, they comprehend she needs money to keep up.Four days later she got another apartment but she was yet to move into it. She thought of hanging around with mama for a few more days, she wanted to buy airtime outside, as she stepped out, she saw a familiar car coming from afar, she ran to the house, hid in the bathroom, and told Simon to lied to anyone that may come to look for her that she's not around.Behold, Jack came a minute later she had instructed Simon. "Hello, there!" Jack greeted people he met outside. The woman selling petty stuff, and a customer were standing outside, while Becky was in her room following through the window."Hello sir, what did you want to buy?" as a business woman she asked. Before Jack would say a thing, Becky hurried out of her room."Mama Agnes, not everybody is a

    Mama thought for a while before giving a response to Tonia's question. "You don't necessarily need to travel down to the south, Abuja is large enough for you to hide without anyone knowing." Mama never wanted Tonia to be too far from her side, she wanted her within the suburb of Abuja."Mama, you know I seldom go out. Where in Abuja did you think is safe for me?" She asked the old lady."Well, we have places like Bwari, Gudu, Kuje, Maraba, and Gwagwalada. My dear houses in this area are affordable and the cost of living is not high." Mama gave her a list to choose from."Mama, thanks for your guidance. I will sleep over the list and pick the one my mind aligns with," Tonia let out."If you have discomfort sleeping here alone, you are free to poke in my room till when you will be leaving. Don't worry I will visit you every now and then." Mama said and returned to her room.Tonia was alone in her room, thinking of the best place to hide from the list. She decided to try Gwagwalada out.

    Tonia bolted the door from behind instantly as she succeeded in sending Simon away. She sat on the floor beside her plate of Amala. She was hungry but she chose to open the envelope first. She screamed out of fear and lost her appetite after she read the letter."Tonia! It's not a mistake that I nicknamed you a stubborn cat, I will advise you not to prove stubborn with me."Don't you ever think that you can run away from me forever. I know your house and I can track you down any day if you attempt to play smart with me."I gave you a reasonable amount to flush out whatever that you said is growing in your belly, don't you dare think to pin me down with it, you've got the wrong person."I'd search for you and kill you with my hands, the day you think of creating any scandal for me. Like literally choke you to death."I will make earth unbearable for you and hell will also reject you. Maybe I am wrong and you are a nice person, but probably not. Watch your steps!!!"This was the letter
