Must Read: A SECOND CHANCE - Season 1 - Episode 76

Maria sat on the bed when she came out from the shower, took a can of cream from the wardrobe and applied it slowly on her skin.
‘so what did you say happened again?’ Maria asked Abby who was seating on the chair opposite the mirror.
‘i said Chuks was involved in an accident’ Abby said.
‘why?’ Maria asked foolishly. Before she could stop herself from asking such, it was already out of her mouth. The look Abby gave her alone sef, she regreted what she said.
‘sorry’ she said ‘i meant to say what happened’ she said.
‘Susan just called. She said we chould come to her house so we could go and see him together. You know his parents might be there and if she goes alone, what will she say she is to him but if we all go together, we could say we are classmates which we are’ Abby said.

Maria sighed.
‘na wa oo. End time is near oo’
‘which one be end time is near oo? Did you hear me say he died eh?’ Abby asked,
‘eh eh, what about your birthday party sef?’ Abby asked.
‘hmm, that one. I heard dad gave grandma money to take care of the preparations’ Maria said.
‘and what about your shopping?’
‘my dear, i dont know oo. Dad has not even coughed a word about it oo’
‘why now?’
‘hmm, i dont know oo but Abby something happened yesterday and i need to tell someone about it’
‘have you told your dad or your grandma?’
‘i told my dad but he didnt believe me’
‘what is it?’ Abby asked.
Maria took a deep breath and told Abby everything.
‘this….your story is,’ Abby said stylishly grabbing her bag ‘ridiculous!’
‘its the truth Abby, i saw my mother’s ghost here in this room!’ Maria said and Abby jumped up immediately.
‘erm…you see Maria, my uncle actually sent me on an errand and uhm…i think i have to get going’ Abby said and headed to the door.
‘wait! What about Chuks? Are we not going to see him again?’ Maria asked.
‘erm, no! Maybe next time’ and with that she b@nged the door and ran as fast as she could out of the house

Breeze started blowing from nowhere. The window was locked and the AC was turned on but breeze was scattering everything on the table.
‘what is happening?’ Tony asked as if Alice could provide him the answers he was looking for.
‘i dont know. The window is locked right?’ Alice asked.
Tony looked at her, then to the window and back to her.
‘isnt it obvious?’ he asked and just then he ws swept off his feet by some unknown force, he found himself lying on the ground.
‘Jesus!’ Alice screamed and rushed to him.
‘are you okay?’ she asked helping him on his feet.
‘yes….i’m okay’ he asked looking around fearfully.

The breeze raised Alice’s gown up, it infact blew it over her head and she found herself standing with just her innerwear on.
