“Sister, ” Halimat called Rofiat who was seated on the bed absent-mindedly. “Sister,” she called again, touching Rofiat by the shoulder and jerking her off to reality.
“Yes,” Rofiat turned to answer.
“What’s the matter? Since you returned, you’ve been looking so disturbed.” Halimat said.

“Nothing dear,” Rofiat turned back. Hadijat was now standing in front of her, in support of Halimat’s question.
“But you’ve not been contributing to anything we’ve been saying since,” Hadijat joined in the conversation.
“Nothing,” Rofiat tried to fake a smile.
“That’s a lie, it’s all over your face that something is wrong” Hadijat insisted. “Did something happen where you guys went to?”
“Nothing happened,” she answered sharply. “We didn’t even get to meet those we went for.”
“Then what’s the matter?” Halimat sat beside her and placed her hands around her shoulder. “By the way, I didn’t see Host, Gentle or Slimmy return with you people. Did anything happen to them?”
“Nothing, they went to sort out a private issue.”
“Then why are you looking so disturbed?”
Rofiat sighed and stood up, she knew they were not going to stop disturbing her until she gives an answer.

“I just have this feeling that something is about to change,” Rofiat finally opened up. “You know since I came, I’ve dashed my legs twice against chairs unnecessarily. That’s a bad omen.”
“Come on, is that it?” Halimat widened her eyes in unbelief at her sister’s words. “How come your believe such?”
Hadijat chuckled at the back and turned to switch on the television set.

“I don’t know but I just feel that something bad is about to happen.” Rofiat insisted.

“Haha,” Halimat laughed, shaking her head mockingly at her sister. “I know what is happening. You’re missing Mum so much that you’re beginning to talk like her.”

Rofiat hissed unfunnily and sat back on the bed.

Halimat got up and walked towards Hadijat, they began to speak to themselves in low tones and laugh loudly. Rofiat ignored their rants and la!d in the bed, covering her ear with the pillow.

“Coded,” OJ called, entering into the dark room where Coded was seated silently.
“OJ,” Coded called back and switched on his torchlight.
“Have you heard anything from Baba?”
“Nothing yet,” Coded answered.
“I just feel there’s something wrong with all these,” OJ said.
“Why?”
“Terror and all, I don’t just feel good about it.”
“Terror is an enemy of Host and he’s surely going to use the opportunity to take out Host.

Thank God Host has foolishly taken up the challenge to go and meet Baba.”
“But do you know that Terror was once Host assistant?”
“Yes, of course. I know all that story. And I also know of how Host angrily shot Terror and his friend in one of their meetings and left them to die. Terror’s friend died that day and that’s why Terror has been looking for a way to have his revenge on Host.”
“But Terror did not die that day,” OJ said in a stern voice. “Don’t you know how he survived it?”

Coded paused for a moment to ponder on OJ’s words. He got up and began to pace around.

“Gentle and Slimmy saved Terror from death and the same Gentle and Slimmy have gone with Host to meet Baba, do you think that Terror would want to harm Gentle and Slimmy?”
“Shi*t! That’s true, I didn’t think of that before.” Coded exclaimed after pondering for a few seconds. “Why didn’t I think there was something fishy when we saw Host drive his car to Baba without delay.”
“We need to show up there,” OJ said. “Baba would need our support if things go wrong”
“Yeah, get your metal”
