Cynthia: I cant, lets go and start our life over there, if not

injection fail, that’s why he couldn’t challenge me, the
Doctor said he asked him severally, if truly he is the
owner of my baby,
Me: oga o, I want to go and see my wife sha
I jumped up from the bed, and I went to dress up, went to
Daniella’s place, I met the place locked, on getting home,
I met kola and Cynthia at home

Some days later
I couldn’t even think of sex, I can feel it that I’m getting
slim, imagine, v confirmed it that my wife, children and in
law are no longer in the country, Cynthia is the one doing
the cooking, I do go to work, chief still keeps disturbing
Cynthia to return the money, we thought it was a joke
until one morning, kola was with us, we were gisting
when we heard a gunshot, Cynthia that have been
sleeping, wake up instantly, we rushed to the exit door,
there is a small gate that link kola’s place and mine, we
passed through this gate, I was already running, it was
Cynthia that uses her initiative to close the gate again,
we heard the thieves shouting at the gateman, “thought
you said they are all here”, the poor guy couldn’t talk, he
was speechless, “gbau” he was shot, they left, for about
10 min, I couldn’t move, it was Cynthia that open the
gate, when he heard their car sound, so they’ve killed my
gateman, innocent blood, on my neck, Cynthia rushed to
the boy, I reluctantly move closer to her, with kola, she
rest the guy’s head on her chest, the guy was shot on
his head, Cynthia was crying
Cynthia: (sobbing) Benson will pay for this, they killed
him, cus of me, innocent guy was killed
Kola: this is serious
Me: were will I put him?
Cynthia: we will call the police, they will come, we will
explain everything to them
Kola: lets call them
Me: hope they wont say we killed him?
Kola: they cant
I put a call through to the police, they came, and Cynthia
and I follow them to the station, we told them, how it
happened, they contact one of my gateman’s friend, they
told him, I can see the way the boy was crying, I feel for
him, he has been crying, all of a sudden, he grabbed me,
His friend: you kill my friend, I go kill kill you too
Me: I swear, I didn’t, it was thieves, I no ge gun now, how
I go shoot him
His friend: wahalai talai, you go pay
One of the police intervened,
Police: oga, go and check his house, you will see how
this people destroy his house
His friend: I don hear you, no be him the thieves they
find? why they no kill him and his wife (pointing at
Cynthia)
Police: oga respect yourself o, if you know you want to
revenge, just work with us, or you may not go home
today, cus with the way you are talking its as if you want
to go and kill them
The guy didn’t talk, he let go of my cloth,
Me: oga, I swear, no be me, you know I like him now
We left the place, straight to kola’s place. On getting
inside, I saw his wife packing her cloth and her babies
own
Me: Juliet, whats going on
Juliet: your friend said I should be going to our 2nd

Me: oh, that’s true, but why cant you be going to your
