Monica has always show to be an extragant lady with the kind of clothes she wore and Jewelries she put on. She was known to be a daughter of a rich man by her friends as she always refer to her father as a business man who doesn’t live in Nigeria and because of the she was sent huge money for her upkeep. That was the story she told her friends but on the contrary, Monica was a rich man daughter in the day time but at night she was the lady of the night ( a run$ girl). She had kept this a secret from friends. Joan also was in the game but had almost lost her life during one of her outing. She visited her friend in Lagos and was introduced to an old man who was a business man.
Man: Is this the lady, I requested.
Joan: Yes, I am sir,
Man: looking at her his eye full of Lu$t, okay you can come in.
The man had entered to shower while Joan had laid on the bed, waiting for him to come but he was not coming. After some minutes she decided to go in and check on him if nothing was wrong as she was after the $1000 he had promised to pay her. She tiptoed to the bathroom only to see something strange. The man had transformed into a huge $nake and was inside the bathing tub, he later transformed into a human being. On seeing this Joan tiptoed back to the bed since the door was locked and the key was not with her.
Man: hello, beauty are you ready?
Joan: forcing herself to smile, yes sir, I amm, amm. She began to stammer.
The man undressed fully and he brought out a white handkerchief that he would need some blood on it. At first Joan had declined but he promised to give her $5000 and a car. She thought over it that and she agreed.
After the incident, she was not herself has she was becoming leaner, it was the timely intervention of her parents who seek spiritual help that had saved her from dying. Since then she had quit the runs work but still have eye on married me, which is one of the reasons she was bent on having affairs with Kelvin.
As Helen and Monica were talking, Joan walked in and greeted them in their usual slangs, but because Helen was moody, she asked her what the problem is.
Joan: Is it John that is making you moody like this.
Monica: Help me ask her oo,
Joan: you better cheer up and don’t allow this to weigh you down, your wedding is in three days and tomorrow is the party for you to graduate from spinster to a wife.
Helen: Smiles a little, yeah.
Monica: But the John issue that has threatened to disrupt the wedding, what are we going to do about that.
Joan: Simple, I have come with an idea that we should hire some police men or bouncers that will stand at the entrance and the picture of John being given to them so as to prevent him form entering into the house.
Helen: Pretending, wow, that would be nice.
Monica: A liitle bit unhappy, why should we waste money because of John.
Joan: Looking at her, is it your money.
Helen: abi o, it is my husband money so…I should spend it on anything I want that would make my wedding glorious.
Joan: Ehhnnn that’s good as for John what was your decision when you went to meet him at the hotel.
