Must Read: THE FIRST DAY I TOAST A GIRL

***As we entered the shop to buy drink, we sat down,i requested for sprite***
Me: baby what will you take?
Mabel: let her give me sprite too.

*** i told the woman,very soon she present it to us. We started drinkng and gisting***
Mabel: baby i need suya.
Me: where are they selling it,i also need it?
Mabel: next street.

*** i gave her money to go and buy,she left. After like a minute she left,some guys with a gun and mask on their face entered the place. I was so scarced, they told all the people in that place to lift their hands up,we did as they instructed. For my mind, na arm robber ooo..my own don finish today. Na so i go die eeeh! I was panting .

The worse part of it is that i don’t have any money on me accept N200. What if they ask me for money and i present N200 to them,what will be their reaction toward me? God please save me ooo. They introduced themselves as military men.

They started asking us our names one after the other. There was two guys standing together,they asked the first guy his name,he said ” am chukwuebuka efueme. They asked the second guy.. He was so scarced that he forgot his name and said”my name is chukwuebuka efueme”’. You know it is only in Nigeria that a military man can clap somebody on friday and he will be smiling,then on sunday as he is preparing to go to church,the pain and cry will come. One of the military men gave him a thunder slap ”GBOZAAA”,it took the guy 5mins to get himself before answering. After asking us questions,they ordered us to hold our neighbour’s cloth and form a straight line. We did as they instructed and they took us to a nearby area, i was thankful to God that it was night,because nobody will recognise me so as to avoid disgrace later.

They told us to lie down and we did. They started whipping us as if we were animals. I cried like a child whose mother denied his meal.

They whipped us like 1hours before they released us.

I don’t know how i got home that night,all i could remember was when the military men drove off. I opened my eyes in the morning.

All my body was paining me,am so weak and fatigue. I don’t have phone to contact mabel or clara to come and assist me. But how come,mabel didnt show up again after he left to buy suya or did she notice what was happening and ran
away. Who brought me home yesterday night? Is it mabel or what? No it can’t be mabel because if she is the one,she would have slept here.

As i was asking myself this rhetorical question,clara entered panting.***

Clara: what happen to you igwe? *** i was so weak to talk ***. Please igwe talk to me.. What is the problem? Why are you looking like this?

Please talk to me baby.

Me: *** i regain some strength** please take me to……

Clara: *** cut in *** take you to where baby?
Me: hospital.

*** she rushed out and came in with a keke driver. They helped me to get downstair before we moved to hospital.clara deposited me in the hospital and doctor applied dripp. After some hours i regain myself again. I told clara where my ATM card is in my house. I told her to go and withdraw N5000 from the bank so that i will pay the doctor for the treatment. I told her my pin and she dashed out.

After 30mins,i didn’t see clara,i was waiting patiently. One hour left,clara isn’t around yet.

I was so worried,did she witdrow all the money in my account and ran away or what?
