Still on the strike palava. I and my younger sister, (remember I have two sisters…one elder sister who eloped with an Old Alhaji and a younger sister) were the first to come home since the strike. My sister is in year one by the way. Subsequently other university students started returning. Out of this returnees was Emeka. Now Emeka has been after my sister for years and is my age mate. My sister obviously likes him too you know all this naive kind of first love but I have just been spoiling his parole… (trust my bad mouth na).
So, this fateful morning, I went alone to the market to buy foodstuffs as my sister was too busy to accompany me. I passed a very popular short cut which was quite bushy in short very bushy and lonely. Just as I got to the middle of the path o, masked guys jumped out of the bushes around and surrounded me. At first, I didn’t even realize I was surrounded. I was trying to form Margret Thacher… running my mouth like tap until one uncle gave me slap from the back. I thought it was funny till I started seeing 🌟 🌟. They forced me to knee down and threatened to beat fat out of my already slim body if I don’t cooperate surrender all my money and take off my clothes. Just then Emeka and his friends showfaced about ten in number and the guys took off and the sight of them. Emeka and two other guys ran after them uno just to make sure they don’t stop running.
I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Emeka helped me up, cleaned me up with his white handkerchief and offered to walk me to the end of the path. I felt really bad for spoiling his parole and in my mind O I just kept on saying “my sister needs this kind of guy”
We got to the end of the path and I feigned ignorance and threw a nonchallant thank you his way and he left. But as I walked on, something kept on nudging me to go back and say thank you very well. Only for me to go back and see the so called masked men with Emeka and his friends rejoicing. At first I was lost until one of them specifically the one that slapped me said “Emeka but if this plan work ehn and you get that girl sister na all of us go do am oo ” another one commented “Why e no go work the girl go dey think by now say this Emeka na hero eziokwu she go like and respect you die… Her permission to do her sistilo you have gotten! na all of us get o” they all laughed what even angered me the most was what Emeka said “Sure na…na use and dump levels na that girl too innocent. But omo that your slap real die”. I was so angrrrrry what was on my mind was to walk up to them and just finish all of them you know just kill them all but I was subtly reminded that I am not super girl so I went back slowly humming aje ku iya… You know the rest of the song🤧. The ram that runs with the back is returning with full force.
P. S
My revenge is in motion. It’s me that took agbara (hot early morning slap) they would not even know what hit them.
