WHISPERS IN THE DARK






CHAPTER 7

Have you ever heard about the phrase “spiritual eyes”? Most people claim to have these eyes. Some people call it the third eye. Some of us have become so modern that we no longer believe in things like these. But it might interest you to know that these things do exist. Some people consider them evil, but they are not. These are special unique gifts that people are born naturally with.

STOLEN SWEETHEART


CHAPTER 1

I was at Miranda’s house when my younger sister came looking for me. She said my elder brother had just come to the village to take me to town to begin a new life. I had been living in the village for two years now, doing absolutely nothing. That was after my high school education. I had plans of going to Nigeria in a month’s time to go and forge a life for myself. That was what I was discussing with Miranda before my younger sister interrupted.

DESPERATE FOR LOVE



CHAPTER 1

It was payday. I had just received my salary and as usual, my first priority was my mother. I always sent her monthly allowance even before I went home after work on pay days. She lived in Nigeria, and I lived in Cameroon. Hence, sending her money was a little bit complex. Western Union would be the right choice, but the charges were enormous. So, I decided to use MTN Mobile money to send. It was cheaper, fast and reliable. Haven made up my mind, I went across the road to a mobile money point that was closest to where I work. When I got there, I met a lady and greeted her.

UNHOLY MATRIMONY


CHAPTER 1

It was December again, and that meant that the Christmas holiday was around the corner. It was a holiday I had anticipated so much. For the past two years, I had given all to my job and hadn’t travelled out of town, not even to the nearest town. So, I decided that as soon as the holiday began, I would be traveling out of the country to see my family. 

After a few weeks of waiting, the holiday did finally come. As soon as I signed out of work, I went to the bank and withdrew enough money. I needed enough money with me because I had projects that I had to do in Nigeria as soon as I got there. It was also the first time my mum would be seeing me in almost four years. The same applied to the rest of my family. They had been praying and fasting for me to come home. Their prayers had been finally answered.

HAUWA'S RETURN



CHAPTER 1

I had just gone to see my girlfriend off. She had spent the entire afternoon with me since it was a Sunday. She was still a student and lived with her parents. Therefore, I was only able to see her once a week and that was on Sundays. On that particular Sunday, she came as soon as she got back from church. As soon as she got to my house, she changed into something casual, went to the market, bought foodstuffs, came back home and cooked. After she was done, she rested a little and I took her to the bus stop where she got a cab and headed home. 

Nerissa, as she was called, was still a virgin. I didn’t know that when I first met her. When I met her, I was struck by her beauty. I had gone to the market to get some stuffs when I saw her. Her mum owned a shop at the main market. So, after I had finished buying from her mother’s shop, I didn’t leave. I just stood there staring at her. I can still remember the conversation between her mum and me.

SOLANGE


CHAPTER 1

I was a US soldier who had just moved back to the country after two years of serving in Afghanistan. Luckily, America’s war was over and I was granted permission to come back to my home country to see my family. This was my first trip in Africa in almost five years, and I was very happy to be back home again. My father was also very pleased to see me again. They had been worried that I was going to get killed in Afghanistan. My mother had prayed incessantly for my safe return and to God be the glory, her prayers had been answered.

“This is the thickest forest I have ever seen. You mean my dear husband has been here for many days without food? Oh my God, my heart is pained over what my husband and his mother must have gone through in this evil forest. Thank you so much Egu for helping me. I will never forget this favour. But please, can we hurry up? I can’t wait to see my husband. I have missed him so much.” Titi said as she and Egu navigated the narrow bush path that led to the kidnappers’ hideout. She reached for her handbag and produced dark spectacles which she quickly wore on her eyes to protect them from flies and dangling grasses that serenaded the narrow road. Although she had the words of Egu who promised her no one would harm her, she was still afraid of what would happen when they get there.

I had a girlfriend back then but it later turned out to be that she'd been cheating on me with another man so I withdrew myself from her.

“It is not true that your husband is in the hospital. Don’t mind Betty. She told you lies over the phone. Your husband was kidnapped and the villagers strongly believe that Betty has something to do with the kidnapping. In fact, your mother-in-law too is missing and she disappeared the same day as her son, Madu. We believe Betty is doing this as revenge because your husband organized a fake traditional wedding so as to humiliate Betty. We have searched the nooks and crannies of the village and we couldn’t find them.” A distant relative named Uche tells Titi as soon as she drove into Madu’s compound in the village. She had barely come out of her car when she heard what truly happened. She was devastated and feared the worse for her husband.

“I want you guys to do a very clean job. Do not leave any stone unturned. Do not leave any traces or any information that can lead the police to our hideout. Do not fail me. Just pick him up and bring him to this place. Pick his mother up too. If his father were to be alive, I would have said you should pick him up too. If he had any children, they would have been picked up as well. If his barren wife were to return to the village today, I will have her picked up too. But for now, let us concentrate on dealing with him and his mother. I believe they planned this together and I want to show them the difference between ‘egbe and egbe.’ When you pick them up, bring them straight to this bush. I want to personally ask Madu and his mother some questions. I want to know why they treated me this way. I want to know why they treated me like a piece of rag.” The new wife said with tears in her eyes.

“I don’t know how to get my husband to make love to me within this period. According to the doctor, my most fertile period starts from today. It is now two weeks since I started taking the treatment as prescribed by the doctor. I didn’t expect that my husband would bring another woman into the house. If had known this was what he was planning to do, I would not have commenced another round of treatment. I would have just given up on my quest to get pregnant. Of what use is it now? I have commenced fertility treatment but there is no man to make love to me. There is no man to deposit male liquid fertilizer in me. I think I should just dump the treatment and move on.” Titi said to herself.

“You have to leave this room. As our people say, when a new wife comes in, the old ‘cargo’ must vacate the bedroom so that the husband will have a taste of the new wine.

That enjoyment starts this night and I don’t want you anywhere in this room looking at them and stopping them from expressing themselves fully. Please, pack your bags and look for another place to stay. Tonight is the night my son would have the taste of a real woman.” Titi’s mother-in-law said with a sarcastic smile on her face.

“I was the invigilator for MAC123, Advertising examination written in hall 1 and I can bear witness to the number of students who wrote the paper. I may not be able to identify each of them if I see them, but I took home a copy of the attendance register.” The invigilator’s wife began to read the statement written by her husband before he was killed. She was standing in the middle of the senate hall and all the panel members paid close attention.

The VC wasn’t happy from the look on his face, but he had no choice but to listen.

“He is dead.”  The lady said. 

“Who is dead?” I asked.

“The invigilator. He was shot and killed yesterday in his house. An armed gang attacked him. His family escaped death by the whiskers.” The lady said. She is the secretary in the Department of Political Science where the invigilator worked as a lecturer. I had gone there to remind the invigilator about the panel hearing where he was expected to appear as a witness.

I also wanted to plead with him to speak out in my favour when he will give his testimony before the examination malpractice disciplinary committee. It turned out that the school had informed him through a letter from the office of the VC. But it also turned out that he was eliminated just a day before he could appear before the committee. It was a shocking news.
