We were still talking when some army men stormed our hostel and started searching bunk to bunk for people who might have illegally connected electricity to an extension wire.

After checking through the bunks, they left after warning us to sleep and not keep making noise as we might not like what they will do to us if they come back.

As the army guys left, it crossed my mind that I have not heard from Shania the whole evening.

I dialed her number twice but got no reply but when I checked her Whatsapp profile, she was online. I couldn’t think of any reason why she wouldn’t pick my calls. I sent her double messages asking about her day and why she wasn’t picking my calls. After a while, I saw an indication showing that the messages has been read but I got no reply. Since she doesn’t want to talk with me, I switched off my phone and slept off.
