Prince oponed the door and behold, it was
Ona. I made to come out from my hiding
but i decided to stay where i was, to find
out her mission.
She was panting “Dagger, there is problem.
A girl who refused to play along with Mady
has escaped. Mady is on her way to this
place to tell you to mobilize your boys and
search for her. This is her passport…..” I
Peeped and saw her bring out a passport. I
knew it’s my passport. I saw Prince stare at
the passport. Shaking his head.
“Please don’t hurt her when you eventually
find her. Rather save her life. The poor girl
is just helpless and innocent. The baby
under your care to be sold to the ritualists
is hers. I gave her a number to reach me…”
On hearing this, i came out from my hiding.
“My daughter.. my daughter…” that was all i
was
saying.
Ona was so shocked to find me there.
Prince told her what happened and added
that i used to be a good friend of his back
in school.
Prince told me that he would help me on
one condition, being that i must tell nobody
about Mady and the kind of business she
does. I agreed and he made me swear. I
wondered why he was trying to protect the
evil woman. Perhaps they are all into the
business together. The same doom awaited
them.
He arranged a room for me in a distant
hotel for the mean time. He brought my
daughter to me that very day. I was so
grateful to him and Ona. Perhaps he
decided to help me because how good i
used to be to him back in our school days.
Even Ona. Another Godsent i don’t know
how to repay her but i know God will see
her through somebody.
Prince gave me a huge sum of money to
travel to another state and start life afresh.
I owed him alot. I never got any information
on what transpired after prince and Ona
saved me. I didn’t also know anything about
Nnamdi’s whereabout. Even Mama Joy and
my parents. But i knew and believed that i
would see them again someday. What gave
me the greatest joy was my Winnie, my
daughter.

Years later.
.

I struggled hard to further my education and
train my daughter in school too. After
everything, i graduated as a lawyer. I got
enough money from my clients. My
daughter was living a good life and doing
well in school too. I bought a car and
owned a house. God really blessed me after
many years of hardship.
An idea struck my mind to visit home with
my daughter to know the situation of
things.
But i never knew what awaited me back
home
