He stepped out of his car and headed towards the front door, as he got close he noticed that the house was dark – no lights at all, this was quiet strange because he was sure he had left some lights on before he went out.

He unlocked the door and walked into the house, when he turned on the lights, a cold wave of breeze suddenly hit him & he felt a particular kind of eerie energy in the house.
Stunned, he stood & looked at the mess in his living room, his coffee table had been turned upside down & several books were lying scattered on the floor.

Before he could make sense of what was happening another cold wave of breeze hit him and he heard someone breathing, his heart slammed hard against his chest as he scanned the house for an intruder but he found no one.

Chibuye managed to convince himself that he had not heard any breathing and there was no intruder in the house – it was all in his head.

He walked to the far end of the room and opened a cabinet which turned out to be a cooler he pulled out a bottle of castle and cracked open the lid with his teeth. He poured the beer into a glass and sat down on the couch.

After about twenty minutes the light above him began flickering, he looked up at the lights and watched them flicker wondering what was happening.

Chibuye started to walk towards the switch but as he did the lights suddenly went completely off and the room became dark.
‘Shit,’ he cursed.

Just then he began to sense a strong presence in the room, he couldn’t describe the feeling but somehow he knew that he was being watched.

He turned around but found no one there.
‘What’s happening to me,’ he mumbled to himself.

He was about to turn on the torch on his phone when he suddenly heard a loud crashing sound from the kitchen which sounded as though the pots and plates were falling off the cupboard.

Then he heard one of the pot lids spin around the floor. He managed to turn his torch on and rushed to the kitchen only to find that there was nothing lying on the floor and nothing was broken, all the pots and plates were still in the cupboard.

The hairs at the nape of her neck stood up as he stood there shivering and shaking then lights went back on at that instant.

He took a deep breath and then picked up his glass of beer though his hands were trembling. He brought the glass to his mouth and took a big gulp which he swallowed hard.
‘I will not give in to mind games,’ he thought to himself.

About a minute later, Chibuye saw the dark figure out of the corner of his eyes, it was standing at the far end of the room, he screamed in horror dropping the glass in his hand to the floor.

The beer spilled over the carpet making it wet.
He blinked his eyes twice and looked towards the corner again. The figure was still there and he was staring directly at him, his red glow eyes penetrated him, Chibuye could feel the figure’s rage and frustration.

Chibuye’s face became pale, he felt his heart sink and his voice came low and quiet, ‘Who are you and what do you want from me.’

‘Ha!ha!ha!’ the familiar empty laughter echoed through the room.
‘Please stop,’ he screamed.

Everything went suddenly still and for a while silence filled the room.

Just then Chibuye saw a marker rise from the table and float mid air.

Chibuye fixed his eyes on the marker he had an astonished look on his face. His head throbbed so hard, he felt like it was going to split into two while his heart felt like it was about to explode.

Slowly the marker began to form black letters on the wall.

Chibuye’s fear was so intense he had never experienced something this scary. Suddenly he felt a stream of warm urine trickle down his inner thigh he needed to find something to scare the figure away with before it harmed him.

Chibuye read the words that had the marker had written on the white wall.
‘Leila is mine! She is mine and mine alone.’
‘I warned you to stay away from her but you didn’t, why?

Chibuye gulped, ‘Leila doesn’t love you, why are you bent on destroying her life,’ Owen said out loud.

‘I owned her before she was born, she belonged to me even while she was still in mother’s womb, who are you to get between us?’

‘I love Leila and I will fight for her,’ Chibuye said, he had no idea where he found the guts to talk back to the figure knowing very well it had the power to kill him if it so wished.

‘Love!’ the marker wrote on the wall again.
‘I can kill you in an instant Chibuye but your blood doesn’t excite me.’

‘You can never lay your hand on me, I don’t belong to you, I am a child of the most high God.’

This time around the marker dropped to the floor, the figure appeared in front of Chibuye and he stretched his hand to his neck so he could strangle him but before he could do that, Chibuye screamed, ‘I am covered by the blood of Jesus, I am untouchable, out in Jesus name,’ and within a second the figure disappeared.

Silence filled the room the only sound that could be heard was the sound of his heavy breathing.
