Wretchedly Rich - S01 E14

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 14

Adaeze sat speechless, wondering what she had said wrong. She couldn’t figure out why her friend would get angry at the mention of Obiajulum’s name, and came to a conclusion that she wasn’t going to bring him up next time. “Guess I have to go to class,” she said at the ring of the bell, getting up from where she sat.

She was on her way back to class when a strange man beckoned to her to come.

“Me?” Adaeze seemed possessed by his presence as she unconsciously went to meet him.

“You are not to tell anyone what I am about to say.”

Adaeze nodded at his command, listening quietly as he whispered to her.

“So you are to do this,”

Adaeze nodded.

“And not let anyone know… you hear me?”

Adaeze nodded again, lips sealed; watching him disappear into thin air.

Adaeze still rooted to the spot, wondered if she was dreaming or not. She was called back to consciousness by Adanne, who came to tell her that their Literature teacher was in class.

“Adaeze, are you okay?” Adanne asked, noticing her friend’s behaviour. “You’ve been standing there like someone who has just seen a ghost.” Adanne observed.

Adaeze walked past her like she was being controlled, shocking Adanne even more.

Did she not see me? Adanne thought to herself, hurrying after her. “Adaeze!”

Adaeze ignored the call, leaving Adanne totally stunned.
