The Series Of My Life - Season 1 - Episode 42

There were two buildings inside the compound. One was a two storey building with many rooms while the smaller one at the back was a one storey building with self-contain rooms.

The big one belonged to male while the one at the back was The female house.
It was different from camp but not much different.

I was given room 22 which I was supposed to share with a Cameroun guy until some other room was furnished for me. Agnes was taken to the female house and given a self-contain apartment.
(Please understand that germans dont name rooms like us. All the rooms on the second floor naturaly starts with 2. room 22 simple means room 2 on the second floor)

The monthly allowances for each of us was 199.40 euro. Approximately 200 euros.

We were given a fraction of that amount since we came in the middle of October.

There were some other Igbo boys in the same HEIM when we arrived. Johnson from Abiriba, Jordan from Nnewi, Tony from Ekwulobia, Chibuzor from Ozubulu and Filas from Nanka.
Then there were two Esan girls. Jordan was dating one while the other one hardly stays in the HEIM.

When I dropped my paper bag and received my money, I went to the shopping mall called Eurospar which was 300 meters away.
I saw Johnson and Jordan with some other Guinea men loitering along the road but didn't know what they were doing.

I bought a big coca cola bottle and sweet bread and headed back to the heim.
I went to my room and ate, then I slept for an hour or so. I woke up and headed to the female house, it was in the same place and it took me a minute to enter inside there.
Agnes had told me her room number when we were collecting our money.

I knocked on room 15 and entered. The female rooms were very neat and bigger. It had its own bathroom unlike our house.
I gave her some of the bread I bought but she refused. We chatted for an hour before I went back to my room.

There was no restriction whatsoever in the heim. A man can go to the woman's house at anytime.

We were finally free or so I thought.....
