EPISODE 2Karl could hardly breathe as he stepped back from his father’s body, his eyes searching frantically for the light switch which he turned on. He noticed something beside his father’s head like he had been trying to write something, he immediately recognized the letters R and U but the last one was so smeared Karl had no idea what it was.“RU… what does that mean? I have to call the police.”Karl dialed 911, gave out his house address and sat down looking away from his father’s body to wait for the police. He tried hard not to cry, he wanted to be strong for his father so when the police arrived, Karl with clear eyes and a strong voice told them all that happened up until the time he discovered the body.“You said he was supposed to go with you for your late mother’s family gathering?” The policeman who introduced himself as Dan only asked.“Yes he was but a call came in, apparent

EPISODE THREEKarl touched down at the Muritala Mohammed Airport, Lagos feeling very lost. His only guide was the journal that clearly stated his destination and his Google map indicating his location. He punched in his destination in the Google map and it showed he was an hour away from where he ought to be. He dragged his luggage behind him, sunglasses resting on his nose even though it did nothing to shield him form the scorching sun as he tried to hail a taxi. He finally got one and proceeded to explain in clear terms where he was headed, the man understanding that he was probably new to the area came out of the car to assist him with his luggage and asked him to relax.“Are you not too young to be travelling alone?” the man asked him as soon as they got on the road.“My father just died, he was a Nigerian. I am here to relay the news to his family” Karl replied quite comfortable to be talking to the man.“I am so sorry a

EPISODE FOURIt took about two hours for Katherine to get her children ready for the journey another two hours to secure the property against intruders and also set it up like they were still in the house, she claimed it was just in case someone had followed him from the airport or something. Karl thought it far fetched but watched her do her thing while he looked over at where the children huddled excited about the trip, there were about five of them including the one named Sandra who was trying desperately to hush them up as they talked about him asking each other if they knew who he was. Karl could not help but smile at their curiosity and walked over to where they sat, they all became silent immediately they saw him, the only thing depicting life was the movement of their eyes, it was like they had stopped breathing if that was even possible.“Hello my name is Karl, what’s yours?” he said extending his hand to the one closest to him. She mumbled s

EPISODE 5They drove for what seemed like days to Karl but was merely hours, he drifted in and out of sleep sometimes imagining he was on a long ride to someplace where his father was waiting. “Are we not there yet?” Karl asked after being on the road for five hours“No we are not, I would have booked a flight but you know how urgent your return was, there was no time for that. You must be tired, longest road journey you have ever undergone?” “Longest anything I have ever undergone really, the road never stops.” Karl replied stretching and yawning observing his surroundings. He could see Sandra and the other kids were still sleeping curled together.“We will be there in about two hours and then you can take a real rest and a bath.”“How was my father like? Before he went abroad and cut you all off”Karl watched Katherine eyes flicker with sadness before it cleared so fast he thought he had imagined it.“He did not exactly cut us off, he used
