Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 3

My father sends for you Amanda.” Maureen said and Amanda nodded as she remembered Maureen had informed her a while back.

“When did you guys arrive here?” She questioned.

“This morning.” Taofeeq cuts in.

“Well am glad to see you guys.”

“Us too babe.* Maureen smiled as she led her to the SUV parked outside of the restaurant.

“So why you guys?.” She asked once more once she entered the SUV.

“Daddy figured you would behave well with me around and that Taofeeq should be my bodyguard.” She answered then signaled Taofeeq to start the car engine which he did.

“So where too?” She dropped looking outside the window.

“Our hotel room. Then tomorrow we head back to Lagos.” She said looking at Amanda.

Amanda didn’t say anything else, she just shook understandingly.

“So what happened to you this past few days?.” Maureen felt like saying something.

Amanda turns and looked at her with a gloomy look then said “I just don’t remember.”

“What do you mean she disappeared?!” Olisa shouted at the top of his voice in Dr. Sheila’s office.

“Calm down Olisa, but that’s the truth.” Dr. Sheila pleaded.

“Don’t tell me to calm down alright. She is my Step brother’s only child. She is my children’s friend who are crying and disturbing me at home just because of her. Top that my step sister’s son is here also receiving treatment in this hospital. We wanted to take her home but you insisted she stays here for three days. Now she is missing!.” He yelled out angrily.

“Calm down Olisa, you’re in a hospital. I only called you here alone because you are the head of your house and you and that young man have been looking after her since she was unconscious.

“I know that Dr. Sheila but are you hearing yourself. An injured girl escaped from your hospital and no one knew about it in time. Am only worried because she lost memories of her family meaning she has no one in this village.” He said pacing about.

“You’re right. I understand the situation. Maybe we should go to the police?.” She suggested.

“I think I’ll just do that.” He said as he slams his fist on the doctor’s table.

He exited her office and Dr. Sheila muttered a silent prayer “Lord please let her be safe.”

“You woke up in a hospital with no memory of how you got there?.” Maureen questioned as they entered into their hotel room. Room 142. Taofeeq took the next room. Room 143.

“I don’t even remember why I came to this village. My village.” Amanda sighs getting tired of the questions Maureen was throwing at her.

“Your village?.” Maureen looked surprised, “I thought you said you didn’t know anything about your family or even your village?.” She stared at Amanda, waiting for her say anything.

“I lied about that. I didn’t want anybody to know my background.” She dropped feeling sorry for lying in the first place.

“You didn’t want anyone to know your family background so how did my father knew you were here then?.” She spit out almost angry.

“I told him because at that time, he was a father to me.” She looked away. She knew Maureen very well, staring at her would make matters worst.

“Okay, a year later. When I asked you about it. You said the same thing.” She was trying to keep her temper in check.

“Yea because I wasn’t sure if I should have told you then. Am sorry.” She commented again.

“Okay, fine. I totally understand why you didn’t tell me.” She said as she sat back on the bed with Amanda to her surprise, she kissed her passionately and they both started unbuttoning their clothes.

“Wait wait. I’ll should take a shower first.” Amanda said halfway.

“We’ll do that together.” Maureen replied as they resumed kissing.
