Ebere 4&5

Ebere
Episode 4&5

Episode 4.

During the period of her internship.
Ebere worked for her uncle diligently. Sometimes she would remind her uncle about appointments with some clients who would at time complain about abuses from their husband.
She wondered if her uncle was beating his as some men do, even if she hasn't seen bruises on her, or seen cry to show she was being molested.
Ebere was now staying with uncle Peter and his wife, reason is because she would be waking up as early as 5:am to enable her go with her uncle to his office, he suggested this so that he would take her in his car, he said he doesn't want her take a cab or motorcycle since their apartment was a bit far from his house, it's distance would take almost forty minutes.
So he suggested it for her own safety, or what he wanted everyone to think.
His sister and his wife, including Dennis who had grown to have a man feature, he had muscles even at the age of fifteen, if someone sees him at the first time, he or she would think he was twenty or so.
They were in support of the idea.

A month later. . .
The Senior W.A.E.C result has been established and Ebere got As and 2 Bs in all her subject, everyone was proud of her and Uncle Peter promised her that if she passed her JAMB and GCE, he would throw her a party, she was excited and happy.
She prayed to God and paid tithe, she was really grateful to God.

She stopped her internship for a while as she started going to a JAMB centre for her lesson, the first day she attended the lesson, she was bullied by some group of boys but she was saved by Damian Stanley, a year one student of unilag. It happened that Damian left college to come down to Abuja to spend time with his sick mum and his elder sister who happens to be the one who ran the JAMB centre, so Damian had called her so that she might give him money to buy drugs for their mum, she had told him to come to the JAMB centre to take the money, when he had came, he saw his sister in her office and he discussed with her for some minutes before he decided to leave but as he passed through the cafeterìa he heard some voices, he wanted to move on but his instincts pricked him so he decided to find out what was happening, luckily he was in time to save Ebere from the three boys who wanted to rape her, since then she became friends with him, even when her mum had told her not to make male friends, she saw that Damian was different and she felt protected anytime she was with him.
She kept their friendship away from her mum.
That same day he had saved her, he had asked her mum but she refused to tell him but as he was in a hurry, he couldn't wait as he dashed out of the JAMB centre premises.

The next day, he didn't come and she was always thinking about him, she didn't know what was happening to her, she hadn't felt this kind of feeling for any guy, it was obvious she was falling in love but she didn't know it. She knew she was rude the other day but she was scared, he was a total stranger, but nevertheless, she hoped he would come to the centre once again so that she would  apologised but to her dissapointment, he didn't show up till the week was elapsed.

Episode 5.

The following week, Damian came to the centre to tell his sister he was going back to Lagos, his mum was now strong on her feet, but when he came to the centre, he saw the girl he had saved seven days ago from being raped, he decided to go talk to her.
When he approached her, she wanted to walk away but he caught up to her before she could take a second step. It was obvious she was shy, the guy she was wishing to see, just from nowhere had appeared walking to her, she didn't know when she let emotions get to her, she asked herself what she felt for this stranger.

'Hi, am Damian Stanley. Do you recognise me?" He asked as he brought out his hand for a handshake.
"No, I don't think so." she lied, she wanted their conversation to extend more, hopefully.
"Am the guy that saved you last monday from those guys that wanted to rape you." he  reminded her.
"Ohh! Now I remember. Am Eberechi Chukwudi." she introduced.
"Wow, what a nice name." Damian said smiling.
"Really? I like your name more." Ebere said blushing.
" Thanks, sorry about last time, I was hurrying to buy drugs for my mum who was ill." Damian said apologetically.
"Sorry. Hope she's fine now?" she asked Damian.
"By the grace of God she is okay now." Damian said, "So what are you doing outside when it isn't break yet" he asked.
"Oh, I wanted to pee so I went to use the women toilet." she told him.
"Okay, let me not be wasting your time when class is going on, see you later." he said as he brought out his hand for a handshake again, which she obliged to.
"I thought you also attend this centre?" she asked as she remembered she didn't see him again in the centre after he had ran out that day he had saved her.
"Me? No, am a unilag student, year one precisely." he said as he laughed.
She looked at him, frowning, when he looked at first and seeing that she was offended with him laughing at her question stopped then asked what made her think he was attending the lesson.
"If you are not attending this JAMB lesson, what are you doing here in this centre." she asked looking at him suspiciously, she wanted to say he knows about the boys who tried to rape her and that he wanted her to see him as a hero but she kept mute to hear what he had to say.
"Well, my sister is the one who is running this centre, and I came here to see her just to take some money for my mum's treatment." he told her, then she nodded.
"You mean, aunty Beatrice is your sister?" she asked and he answered in the affirmative.
They said goodbyes to eachother and Damian decided not to go to Lagos this week anymore.
He wanted to have her in bed before he travels back to unilag.
He figured she was too beautiful to leave just like that, he decided that day he was going to have a taste of her.

And since then he had get too close to her, he would come to the centre just to see her, he wanted to leave for Lagos that saturday so he calculated he had thursday and friday to get inside her.
