It was a matter of life and death, so I was in a haste to leave.I was desperately in need to see Mia, to save her. Because she had made the decision to go meet Tunde Ibrahim to take her life. So all the problems on going in my life would be put to stop. Something which made me feel so fucked up, on the inside.I cussed the moment I had told her everything at the hospital. How Tunde Ibrahim had burnt down my house, and threatened to kill my dad, sister and her family. And she had looked so guilty, like she wanted to tear right into the ground and die. Something that had made feel like the worst person to ever live on planet Earth.And then, she had said she was going to meet with Tunde Ibrahim. Because having been she wasn't in my life, all the ongoi

MiaOn getting home, tears started welling up in my eyes. I couldn't believe Grandma Felicia had passed away. I mean she was old, and was having health issues. But I didn't expect her to die so soon. When she hadn't even enjoyed the fruit of her labour. Grandma Felicia was the only parent figure I had, after my parents died at a plane crash, when I was six. That was twenty years ago.I had lived with Grandma Felicia almost all my life. And not that she was immortal, no. I never thought about her dying any day. It was just like that for me. Like she would never die. And live for as long as possible.I could still remember the first day she had taken me to live with her. How I had been irritated at everything in the house, with her and my cousins inclusive.How she had forced me to eat the food I didn't like, and I had run out and had a good cry myself. Because I was missing my parents.

Chapter ninety-one

Charles"Your daughter is missing."Those four words, where what made me still like a statue for sometime. As I moved the phone away from my ear.Lolita who had been crying, and begging me to forgive her, stared at me in an odd manner.Ruby's Proprietress was the one that called me on the phone, and told me that Ruby had gone missing. That most pupils claimed they saw walking with a man who claimed he was my cousin brother. And was sent to fetch her from school, because I got involved in a fatal car accident.Dé javu hit me hard. Because it was starting all over again. Reminding me of how miserable I was, when she got missing the first time.Flashback.I arrived at my mom's house twenty minutes later, to pick Ruby. But I noticed the doors and windows were locked. Which signified that no one was present.

92BoluWhen I got home, my phone started ringing right at that moment. When I carried the phone out from my purse and stared at the screen, it was my mom."Hello. Good afternoon, mom." I greeted over the phone."There is nothing good about the afternoon Boluwatife. Nothing good at all." Her voice was laced with anger when she said this. Something which left me wondering what was going on."I don't understand, mom. Did I do anything to upset you?" I asked, bringing out my grocery bag from the back seat of my car."How could you not tell me that you are pregnant?""What?" I could feel my eyes nearly pulling out of their sockets at this."You heard me. Don't you dare try to play dumb, you silly girl. I saw you at the mall an hour ago. I chose not to come meet you, because you have been avoiding my video calls, and refusing to come over to the house. And then I saw you at the mall, and watched you from afar. You are pregnant." She

Bolu"This has got to be some joke." I said, the moment I found my voice. "How the hell did you get in here?" "I know how to pick locks. My dear sweet, sweet Bolu." Sam said with a smirk, taking a step forward to me."Don't you dare come any closer, or I'm going to tear your limbs off." I warned, recoiling a step backwards, out of sudden fear.And he slapped his palms together. "Fine." He responded, staring around him."What do you want here? I just don't get it. You saw me off at the grocery store, and the next thing I see when I get into my apartment, is you. When my doors were fucking locked. Something which makes it suspicious that you have something up to your sleeves." I said, feeling so scared. Something which made my legs started dancing out of nervousness."Well, well, well. Bolu, it's a good thing you know that." A tiny smile tilted at the corners of his mouth, as he sat down on my couch, crossed leg."And I thou

Chapter ninety-four

Bolu "No." I said, after a few moments. "There is no way I am going to run away with you. Because I am waiting for Alex." "Can't you see that Alex doesn't love you, or want to be with you?" The fact that how true Sam's words were, made tears to build up in my eyes. I turned away from him, so he wouldn't see them. "No. I am carrying his child." I broke the news. Suddenly, I felt him hugging me from behind and digging his face into the crook of my neck. "You carrying his child doesn't change anything. He wants another woman and not you. Can't you get that? It is I who genuinely loves you." Sixteen years ago, this would have touched me. His words would have made me wanted to give my all to him. But sadly, I didn't feel anything. I didn't even love him anymore. The one person who my heart belonged to, was someone who didn't even want it. "The one person who would never give up on you. I ha

Chapter ninety-five

BoluA look of disbelief and confusion clouded Sam's face, as his brain properly aligned the words that just came out of my mouth."What?" He blinked, still unsure of my response."I said then take me to him. I would rather be his sex slave, than yours. Because I don't love you anymore. And I would never love you." I stated painstakingly. Then release my grips on the grocery bags, that they fell at my side. As I maintained eye contact with him. Not even scared of him or anyone. I guess it was the baby giving me courage."Are you being serious right now, Boluwatife?" He asked me, with his forehead creasing into their insides."Yes, I am more serious than you can ever imagine. You are not to be trusted, because you work for the same person you want to betray. That's beside the point, you might be even worse than him. Someone who genuinely wants to render help to me, would look for

Chapter ninety-six

Bolu "Now, grab all the things you'd be needing. Let's leave this place before the others get here." Sam instructed. Something on my insides, told me not to. That I should delay him until the others would arrive. Not that I wanted to go live with Tunde Ibrahim. But I was more scared of running away with him to where I wouldn't know. He might be even worse than Tunde Ibrahim. But on the other hand, he might shoot me on the leg if I delayed him. He had even threatened to shoot my leg, and then carry me out by himself. I made my way into the room, with him trailing behind me. Still had the gun pointed at me. I began stuffing some clothes into a duffle bag. Then I carried my credit cards. I started feeling nauseous right at that moment that I rushed into the bathroom, to release the undigested food out of my stomach, into the sink.

Chapter ninety-seven

Bolu"Hurry up!" He barked at me, pulling me away from the sink. That I couldn't even rinse my mouth, and make use of the mouth wash.He was acting like one who was on hard drugs. Like he was being controlled by something. I couldn't believe this was the Sam I used to know."Get your things, let's fucking leave. Now!" He pushed me towards where my bag was. And I hurriedly picked it up, with my shivering hands growing sweaty. Because I was scared. I didn't want to go with him. I didn't want to run away with him. I was carrying Alex's child. And Alex needed to know. He had every right to know that I had his seed in my womb.This made me awfully sad. That tears started welling up in my eyes."Let's go, now!" Sam yelled over my head. Then he pulled me by the hair, and started dragging me out of the house.Something that caused pain to shoot through

Chapter ninety-eight

MiaI couldn't remember how I walked down to the road, or I entered a cab. All I knew was that, I was inside a cab, yelling over at the driver for being to sluggish and to increase his pace.Tunde Ibrahim's man who had been texting me, had instruct me not to take the busiest roads of Lagos. Because he thought somehow, I was going to involve the cops.I was glad grandma Felicia was alive. That she didn't die, and it was all a lie. But what was worse, was that she was being abducted by Tunde Ibrahim. Because of me. Including Alvin.I tapped on the cab driver to stop, and hopped out of the cab. Paid him his money, and slammed the door shut.I started walking, until I saw the abandoned school just as it was described over the text message.There was a footpath at the back of the school, and I followed it untill I saw a big building surrounded by thick bushes.
