Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 36
I suddenly finished rubbing her back and she
thanked me and went to the wardrob, I
watched her slip the clothe over her body. I
have devised and perfected my plans. My
phone started ringing and I picked it up and
talked away rapidly screaming and making
exclaimations that drew my madam’s
attention. She watched me with questioning
wide glares that assured me I was acting well.
“What is the matter?” She asked hysterically
immediately I dropped the phone.
”My cousin’s son just had an accident and
she was the one that called, her husband is
out of town and am the only close relative
around… she wants me to come stay with her
at the hospital.” I lied without difficulty.
She was obviously caring as she urged me to
start going, offering to gimme a ride down to
Gwags as she zipped up her gown. I had told
her it was General hospital Gwagwalaa that
she was on her inquiry.
The next few minutes we were on our way to
Gwags. She was behind the wheels, looking so
worried as she drove. I was almost going to
burst out with laughters as I watched her
facial expression. She was really sad. How I
manage to keep that sad face shocked me.
Truly. The face is not a window to the mind!
as Shakespeare said.
I started thinking of how I had planned to
leave her room and I beamed a hidden smile
to myself. This is how it happened. When I
was rubbing her back I was seriously cracking
my brain thinking of a way to leave so that I
can go visit Ada.
Along the line I thought of giving an excuse to
go visit my cousin sis at Zuba but on what
basis? She will not want me to go
immediately. That was how the accident stuff
came into my head. my cousin is newly
married and have no son so I quickly planned
out how to fake a call. I won’t want to be the
one to call I would want my cousin to call but
how? and if she did call how will I act out
what I have in mind.? That was when it
dawned on me like a flash.
Immediately I finished rubbing her back with
the Olive oil, she turned towards the wardrobe
to get a new dress. Immediately she had her
back turned to me, I quickly grabbed my
phone and checked the time.It was few mins
6:30pm so I quickly set an alarm to ring by
6:31 pm, remember my phone was on silent
mood so I quickly switched it to general mood.
She found the clothe she wants to wear and
slipped it over her body and was about to Zip
it up when the alarm went off and I quickly
picked it and acted like one receiving a call
The way I exclaimed paused her movement as
she waited for me to finish so she can ask me
what the matter was.
Thankful to my stars everything worked
according to my plans and now she is driving
me to Gwags to see my Cousin whereby
invariably she is driving me to her daughter’s!
UniAbuja is located at Gwags too.
When we got to the hospital, I jumped out and
rushed out of the car like some one who is in
a hurry to see the state of his nephew. I was
running towards the hospital building when
she called me back.
“Nneji, don’t be in a haste” and I stopped
abruptly and apologized.
“Sorry ma, thanks alot for the ride, God bless”
I told her and started walking off again.
“Won’t you like me to accompany you?” She
asked. Immediately my brain seized.
“Accompany me? Noooooooo, na scam I dey
act so!” I screamed in my head.
“No ma, you have tried, and my sister is not
expecting you” I explained to her and she
really did understood. At this point I wished
that
I was not deceiving her and I wished all
women will be understanding like her.
“Ok here, have this” And she handed me some
folds of naira note. I collected it with so much
joy, thanked her and ran towards the hospital.
Immediately I reached inside I hide behind a
glass to watch her go into her car and drive
away I was so happy that ny plan worked so
fine. The joy never allowed me to unfold the
notes to know how much she gave to me.
I stole out of the hospital when I was quiet
sure she has gone and I bounced toward the
gate and when I was about to cross the road I
heard “Nneji” immediately I turned I saw it
was my madam calling from behind the
wheels. Immediately I felt the ground should
just open while I fall in.
