Lyda - #3

Though at that time it was meant to be a voluntary service the incessant killing and unreasonable manslaughter made many to be wary of traveling wide in my home country. Hence, a lot of graduates decided to get exemption letters instead of serving. I had gone to the NYSC camp. The camp was a paramilitary camp indicted by the President to create unity among the ethnic groups in the country. I was posted to the Up North where we graduate spent about three weeks in the camp after which we were redeployed. In the camp, we were about 9,000 graduates who didn't know everyone except a few familiar faces from the university I graduated from. Those I eventually knew were my Platoon members and room members. It was the last day in the camp and our deployment letters were handed to us. Reading the letter, I was posted to a Village called Doun. I haven't been to a village before as I spent all m

He further disclosed that he has been having sleepless nights since the death of Ugo. He was so incensed with guilt and strongly believed he was at fault. That same evening, he came again shivering, complaining of body ache and his diagnosis was malaria so I injected him with some dose of aspirin for the fatigue and then some drugs which he took.

ACROSS town on the lower East side of Singapore, Marty was back in his hotel room which wasn't exactly a luxurious suite like he was used to while staying with his parents. The room was like a monks with living necessities. The not too tiny room had a couch and a bed. Other amenities included a sink and a half height white refrigerator. At least the bathroom had a bathtub, his one necessity in life and his most favourite place.He strolled pacing non-stop checking his black leather wristwatch as well as tapping in the screen of his smartphone. Holding the phone close to his left ear, he placed the phone on a call mode yet the phone went to a voice mail. In anger, he flung the phone on his spring induced bed and continued to pace the room. He could feel his throat close up in a thirst as his tongue felt heavy in his mouth. He moved towards the refrigerator to take a sip of water from the already opened bottle in the fridge. He had drank a few sip before leaving to see hi

Insanely tired and possibly in another world, Marty was in a deep slumber oblivious to the world around him. The energy drink he had ordered did nothing to derail the sadness he was feeling. The tension during the car drive was as palpable as humidity after a rainstorm. He had waited till night time when Katie's plane left for Nigeria. She had missed her proposed scheduled flight yet due to her adamant spirit she stayed at the airport till the next flight instead of yielding to Marty's plea to return to the hotel. One thing was for sure, Marty would never try to offend Katie as this was their first serious fight. He could imagine how a second might turn out. His body shivered as he pulled the cover over his head. And he missed seeing her face. Hearing her voice. Imagining her body beneath the covers. A loud ringtone just from beneath his pillow woke him. Sitting up grudgingly, he felt a piercing headache due to his sleep deprivation and intense intake of coffee. Despite the ache, he

He journeyed through the land, keeping track of the days spent. He didn't know the route but trod on the path with his instinct. Although he sensed a familiarity with the plains and mount surrounding him. As if he had once walked the path before. After walking for a very long time, he came by the path that led to a small village. This village was hidden behind thick and dense greenery comprising of wild bushes and trees. Seeing the remote setting of the small houses with tree houses hanging above them, brought back a memory. He had been here before. The small houses were made from bamboo and dried palm fronds, the thatched roof was woven from stacks of dried up hays, fallen palm leaves, and tall stalks of dead brown grasses. He remembered how they had dug small holes into a gigantic tree of strong roots and great height. His people had carved out the inside in any way that suits them. His friends had stayed in these treehouses throughout their lives.&

He has never run like this in his life. He could recall when he was little and a boar had pursued him to the end of the forest where he had jumped into the ocean causing the boar to leave him. He glanced back and noticed that he was still being followed, the hot breeze blew through his wet hair. Arrows flew past but he was able to dodge very quickly. Breathing heavily, he kept running, he pushed himself to keep moving although he was getting tired, more reflections roamed into his mind. I should just surrender, they will take me to my family.

As the pains on his back and arms proved unbearable, he decided to discard her body secretly in a nearby bush. He made a prayer in second bracing himself, he saw a path in the bush and continued.Along the path he trudged, there were hundreds of huge bare shadowed trees deprived of leaves and fruits. The trees could be assumed dead but the black hard trunks puttered with cracks that released some brown slimy substance. He walked through and came across a stream, it extended further into the land to its opposite side like a delta. The land had mountains of its own, it was vast and dense. Suddenly, a herd of catamount strode towards the creek. Their heads were round and their bodies were covered in tiny black spots leaving the tops of their ears, long tails, and
