🧘 TEARS OF A YOUNG MAID 🧘 EPISODE 7&8 I was cogitating wistfully when the gate man came in suddenly. Seeing him gave me the heebie-jeebies because he was the one that slapped me previously. He rendered an apology that he was very sorry for being acerbic. I accepted his apology without hesitation because what I did was one hundred percent ridiculous. Smiles of gratitude filled up his face and he asked me why I behaved preposterously. I had a lump in my throat and I was beside myself. I groaned inwardly but he insisted that there I should tell him. I narrated everything to him with face like a wet week-end. He was astounded after my narration and asked why I didn't tell him when it started. I looked at him in a black mood "what would you have done?" I asked him as though I wanted to fly off the handle. "Let your temper subside,it won't solve the problem" he said as though there was ants in his pants. My temperament became low instantly,then I knew that a...

While I was with her in her room,she advised me to take good care of the house that am now the only woman in the house.

I couldn't shout anymore because the sound of the compact disc was deafening.  Instantly, quantity of fluid started gushing out through my thighs.

IT WAS A SET UP (EPISODE 12) “If all what we have here is true, then this institution is so doomed. However, we shall have enough time to investigate all these claims”, the Vice Chancellor said. “I have something to say”, said Dr Mike. “Not at the moment”, refuted the Vice Chancellor. “I should be given a fair hearing. I have the right to fair hearing”, Dr Mike protested as he stood up, hitting hard on the table. “You don’t expect a refract from nowhere to come and heap insults on me while I keep mute.” “Sit down Dr and stop hitting the table”, said the Vice Chancellor. “Nobody has said anything yet. You will have enough time to defend yourself. But before then, Professor Ekpo, you have something to say?” Professor Ekpo was a very wicked lecturer. Not wicked in the sense that he witch hunted students, but because he will never add even half mark for you. If you scored thirty nine and a half, he will never give you the remaining half to complete forty, which was the pass mark in the uni...

We do not have any business with his phone. And I want you all to know that this whole drama is because of his lustful desires. Dr Mike thinks he can have any lady he wants. He has been sexually harassing me ever since I came to this school. He thought Ezekiel here is my boyfriend, so he got pissed off with him. He thinks that Ezekiel has been enjoying what he feels should be he’s. This whole thing is about me. Dr Mike wants to have me on his bed.” Linda sat and the Vice Chancellor signaled to narrate my version. I stood up and narrated what happened on the said day. After hearing my own version, a Professor who was probably in his middle seventies spoke.  “I remain Professor Chukwuemeka Nnamdi, a Professor of Meta Physics. I remain the longest serving Professor alive in the country. I b...

Goose bumps were all over me. People were shaking. Everyone knew the Minister. I used to see him on television. He was a no nonsense man. Throughout the country, he was very powerful and influential. Madam...

She said she wanted to have a word with me, so I granted her audience. “My son, I hope you are enjoying your stay here!” “Without a doubt, madam” “Good. So tell me, where are you from?” “I am from Akwa Ibom.” “Akwa Ibom. Akwa Ibom is my second home. I visit the state quite often. I know quite a number of influential fellows there. They are my brothers and sisters”, she took a break and continued. “Well, that is not why I am here. My daughter told me everything about you. I mean everything. But you know what? All your troubles are gone from this minute. Henceforth, you are my son and I want you to see her as your sister. Feel free to come here any time. This is your second home too.

™ IT WAS A SET UP (EPISODE 8)  I picked up the phone and it was my HOD. He informed me that the panel will no longer meet with us; instead we should prepare to appear before the Senate. That did not come as a surprise, because we were earlier briefed. I left the bed and went out to find Linda. One of the guys I met in the house told me she went out early that morning. I dialed her number only for her to tell me she went back to school to get few things from her house. ‘Why would she leave me here?’, I wondered. I went outside to catch the full glimpse of the compound. The kind of guys I saw stationed at strategic points in the compound confirmed my earlier suspicion that those people were ritualists. I quickly rushed back to my room and ensured the door was well locked. I became alert. ‘What if these people come to kill me now and use me for money ritual?’, I soliloquized. ‘I will fight for the last time before they take me’, I assured myself. I sat on the bed starring at the door ...

™ IT WAS A SET UP (EPISODE 7) When we got outside, I saw the same SUV I saw the other time.  We entered the vehicle and we zoomed off.  None of us uttered a word throughout the journey.  We drove to a Hotel down town.  We were ushered into a room where we met people waiting for us.  I mean very senior citizens.  From the look of things, they were all rich.  ‘Maybe Linda is an ashawo’, I thought.  We were given seats to sit.  Drinks were offered and merriments were made.  I was lost.  I did not understand what was happening.  “Why are they celebrating?”, I asked Linda.  “Make sure you don’t leave my sight”, she said as she stood up to greet a man across the room.  I became afraid.  I would have gone to use the restroom because I was pressed, but Linda had told me not to leave her sight.  So I remained rooted to my seat and my eyes glued to her.  “And who is that boy?” asked the man she greeted. His quest...

The spirit was willing, but the flesh was weak The house was well secured, but I was afraid they would open it I turned to retrieve with Linda to the bedroom, but I did not see Linda My legs were heavy Just then, Linda emerged with two knives She gave me one while she kept one She held my hand and pulled me to the bedroom “What should I do with the knife?” “It’s for self defense.
