Today marks exactly two months and one week since I came to this place. And today is the beginning of another chapter in my life. I have no idea what awaits me ahead of this journey that I am just starting, but I am starting anyway, and I am not looking back. I have replaced all the bitterness I had for this place, and Ejay in particular, with the hope and determination to reinvent myself, but that does not mean I am accepting to spend my life here with these murderers. One thing I have vowed to myself is that no one will distract me from this course. I am fighting for my freedom. I am chasing my happiness, and I am willing to pay the price. Whatever the price,Isn't it said that it's not because things are difficult that we don't dare; rather, it's because we don't dare that things are difficult? Well, I have no one as far as I know, and if I don't dare to help myself, then no one will come to my rescue. I am not going to wait to helplessly die here, like a useless dog. I have refuse
It's almost ten, but here I am, still on stage. My two hours of performance have doubled because these monkeys are asking for more, and more, and more. I feel tired. I feel exhausted. I am so drained that I feel like I am fainting the next second. I scan for this senior monkey, Ejay, in the room, but he is nowhere to be found. Where on earth did he go? I need him to come and talk to his men. I need a rest before crying out loud!"I greet you all!" I decided to help myself since Ejay left me hanging. Instead of answering my greetings, they all stood, clapping their hands. I look at the girls, who have been busy serving drinks and performing their duties, without missing a chance to show how amazed they have been by my performance. I wish I could sing until past midnight. That way, I will steal the time for these hungry men to have their demonic desires quenched. But can I? "I am happy that you are all enjoying the night, and I understand that you want me to continue, but I am so draine
It's so dark in this room. It is so dark that I cannot recognize the faces of the people around me. All I can hear are croaked voices that are so confusing. I don't know if they are the voices of men or women, because they are inaudible too. I try to take a close look at their faces, but all I see is darkness. I stand up and walk towards something that looks like a door, with a little light coming in through it. I still don't see anything but darkness. What is this place? I turn to walk back inside, but I hear two voices calling my name. One is coming from inside the house, and the other from outside. The one from outside is for a girl, clear and audible enough, and the one from inside is for a man, struggling to breathe. I stand on the spot, listening to the voices again, and they call me a second time all together. "Who is it?" I ask, taking a few steps into the darkness outside, but the male voice calls for me, making me stop. They both need my help. Who should I go to first? Who i
Shouts of praise and cheers filled the room after my performance again tonight. I am standing on the blood-stained ground that people lost their lives on yesterday, but nobody seems to care. Nobody is behaving like something as horrible as murder happened in this same room and in front of everybody's eyes. I might be wrong, but I think this is more than being loyal to the boss. I mean, are they not scared that the same thing might happen to them too? Where do they get the heart and courage to return to this club even after such incidents? What makes them stick to this club? Are they bound by an oath or what? I feel there must be something deep about this. The terms and conditions of joining How do they become part of this club? The aura in and around this whole club speaks nothing but darkness, and behind this darkness lie so many secrets that I will unfold one by one. I will find out the whole story behind this club and Ejay, whatever it takes.I bow slightly as I turn to walk to the
It is a beautiful Monday morning, a special day that the country will be hearing from and seeing me for the first time after two months since my sudden disappearance, both on media and physically. I should be nervous or worried, but I am far from it. This feels like the beginning of something new. Something good. I am choosing to be optimistic about this, and I am not entertaining any thoughts of negativity. I closed all my previous social media accounts according to Ejay's orders and created new ones, whose details I will give out during the interview. I don't know why this niger is determined to disconnect me from anything from my past. Anything that has anything to do with my past is prohibited from being near me.I finish dressing up at the same time Ejay comes in with my breakfast. The only thing I feel for this man is hatred. detest. pure detest. The only thing I think of about him every time I see him is how to bring him down. How can I rescue these girls from his crutches? But
I have finished watching the interview I did earlier today, and my heart is melting down because of the thousand messages I am reading. The sympathy, love, and care displayed through the messages is overwhelming. This love is too much. With the kind of replies I am getting, I am sure by now my social media accounts are flooded with messages. I can't wait to check them in the morning. I scroll down the messages further, forcing my eyes to stay open because they are giving up. It is almost three in the morning.Before deciding to close my laptop, I came across a comment that got me curious. It is from a lady called Nelly. She says she was my best friend and that she went crazy when I disappeared, and she asks me to call her. I take the number she listed below and save it to my phone, making a mental note to call her when I wake up."Thank you all of you. I want to let you know that I have read all your comments, but I can't reply to them all. Thank you so much. Let's reconnect through t
We are driving out of the club with Ejay, along with an annoying number of bodyguards. I thought he was going to let me go and look for a house myself, but the jerk had his plans. I was shocked when he told me that he had taken care of it, but either way, I am glad. This is a good start. It was a new beginning for me. It was a good opportunity to work out my plans. I will be able to concentrate on my music and private life with the little time I will be getting out of the club. I have a lot of plans already, and I hope I succeed. I can't fail. I can't afford to fail.It's been about twenty minutes since we left the club, and we are now driving slowly in a gated community. Security is so tight here, as I can see. In less than two minutes, we pass a few more apartments, and the driver hoots at a black gate labeled No. 13, 1st Hurlingham. I am guessing this place is called Hurlingham. A soldier opens the gate, and we drive in. A very clean tiled compound and a two-story apartment."You l
Today, I feel so happy. So fresh. So freaking free! It feels so good to wake up in this comfortable bed. I still can't believe I spent my first night away from the club. It's unbelievably thrilling. Now this is life, and I am going to live it to the fullest. I am not going to let anything weigh me down. Not even Ejay.I brush my teeth and walk downstairs to the kitchen to make breakfast for me and my new friend. She has not woken up yet, but I don't want to wake her up. It's not like she has somewhere urgent to go anyway. She told me that she has a fashion and design boutique, and she has trusted employees to run it in case of her absence. She is quite outgoing and has a slightly manageable temper. I saw how her face changed when I told her that I didn't want to talk about my past life. It was like I was refusing her request. It's like she hoped to really help me recover my memory, but I know better than to let my emotions take over. I know what will happen if I don't handle this well
