Episode 7

Back to past

Amarachi narrates

I was going through my laptop, when Samuel’s

dad calls me since he offers to help me get an

apartment l picked the call immediately

Me: Good morning sir

Samuel’s dad: Good morning dear how are you

this morning

Me: Am fine sir and you? What about mum?

Samuel’s dad: We are all fine

Samuel’s dad: What about your parents

Me: They are ok dad

Samuel’s dad: Ok l called because of what l

promised you though, l have already informed

your dad earlier on Hasn’t he told you?

Me: Yes dad, but he promised to have a talk with

me after work

Samuel’s dad: Hope you are now ready for school

l mean l hope everything is already set

Me: Yes dad

Samuel’s dad: Good feel free to tell me always if

you need help

Me: Thank you so much dad, l really appreciate

your efforts God will reward you abundantly sir

Samuel’s dad: You are welcome

Samuel’s dad: Now listen my son Samuel is

actually in the same school with you, you know l

have planned looking for a new place for you,

but l think it’s of no use since Samuel is staying

there alone and his apartment is such a big place

to contain you Two, so l have decided you stay

with him there in school

Me: Dad am sorry l can’t stay with Samuel

Samuel’s dad: What do you mean you can’t stay

with him? Is it because of what happened

earlier? Is he still mad at you? Just tell me l

would call and talk to him right now

Me: No dad isn’t because of what happened l l

don’t just think l can cope with him

Samuel’s dad: Amara l just need you to stay there

with him please just do it for me.

Me: It’s ok dad l l l will have you told him?”

Samuel’s dad: Isn’t a problem

Me: Ok dad thank you very much dad

Samuel’s dad: You are always welcome

Samuel’s dad: Please take him as your own

brother, Samuel is actually stubborn that’s why l

want someone like you who is well trained to

stay with him, stay there with him and teach him

morals, l will send you the address bye for now

He says and hangs up. Why? Why this Samuel

again? Hmmm, l missed him, l missed his quarrels

though l knew we are in the same school which

am not sure he has a clue of that, but l never

expected to Live in The same apartment with

him, l never for once believed that. How would l

be able to cope with him how

“I don’t ever want to see your face again” his

words rang bell in my head oh my God! We have

already promised to stay away from each other.

Samuel? I scre-med his name again ever since

that day l met him l haven’t been myself even

when he quarrels and talks to me the way he

wants I still like him that way. Gosh! Like him?

Do l like him? No l can’t. I have to call Esther

before l knew it am calling her

Me: Esther are you there?

Esther: Babe hi this one you voice is somehow

are you okay?

Me: Am not ok Esther and l can be ok

Esther: Gist me baby what happened

Me: As if you haven’t heard

Esther: Heard about what?

Me: Is that jerk that you called your brother

Esther: What’s it this time and mind you l have

warned you to stop calling him a jerk

Esther: What happened to him has he threatened

you again?

Me: If its just to threaten me l would have been

ok

Esther: Then what’s it this time

Me: I had been asked to Stay with him in school

by your dad

Esther:what! Hahahaha like seriously?

Me: Isn’t funny oh don’t find it funny

Esther: Gosh! It’s really funny and interesting

Me: What do you mean?

Esther: You guys are meant to be together aren’t

you seeing it?

Me: Never can we be together

Esther: So? Do you reject the offer?

Me: Am still thinking about it

Esther: What’s there to think about

Me: Esther your brother isn’t that easy to handle

am not sure l can stay with him

Esther: You will and you can and besides what’s

even there? You guys are not staying in the

same room, you stay in yours while he stays his

Esther: The house is even big enough to occupy

5 students so chill dear l know you are afraid of

his k-ss hahahaha

Me: You are still finding it funny isn’t funny at

all

Esther: Am very happy for you

Me: You are very stupid, how is studies

Esther: Fine am just coming back from lectures

Me: Alright l really appreciate everything your

dad had been doing for me you guys are the best

Esther: You are always welcome dear

Esther: You have agreed right?

Me: Since l don’t have any other choice

Esther: Please this one been made already is

really the best for you

Me: Ok

Esther: Treat him as your brother, teach him

morals, always ask him questions to know the

real him

Me: What! (she hangs up)

Why did she hang up? To know the real him?

Could it be he was a nice guy and changed later

on because of someone or something? Mtcheew

whatever why are mine even thinking about

him.

I don’t even have the face to show up in that

apartment cos we plan not to see each other

again talk the more of living under the same

roof

Samuel! Don’t try any rubbish there oh cos if you

do l will kill you myself

“Amarachi are you in?” I heard my dad voice

” yes dad come in” l replied

He comes in and sat down on my bed

“chief offia called~__”

“he has told me already he called this morning” l

said not letting my dad to finish

“Amarachi are you like angry? Is that decision

not ok with you?” My dad asks

“dad am not sure it’s ok, but l will just try and

stay since there is no other place” l said

“Amara why isn’t ok with you do you have issues

with his son?”

“dad no l don’t it’s ok dad l will just stay” l said

“that’s my daughter, l had always wanted the

best for you, l will always take care of you, l

know l don’t have much, but l will always give

you the best, go there and make me proud make

your mum proud also so that where ever she is,

she will be proud for having a daughter like you.

See you my lovely daughter l Can’t even believe

to miss you” he said

“me too dad” l replied

“promise to make me proud” my dad says

“yea dad l promised” l assured him

“that’s my queen try and see your step mum

before going”

“ok dad”

“good take care of yourself” he said and k-sses

me on my cheek

“you too dad”

“eeh you will be going tomorrow right? Since

everything is already set”

“yea, but dad you haven’t given me the money”

“l know sweetheart l will give you #20,000 now

after like 3 weeks l will give you something

again isn’t ok like that?”

“it’s ok dad thank you” l said

“l love you take care” he says and left

The next day, after a little advices from my step

mum and my dad adding a little more to it. I left

for school. Samuel’s dad had already sent the

house address to me. So l got there around 3 pm

“wow such a big house” l said when l got to his

gate, l knocked like minutes and nobody comes

to open the gate after knocking for sometimes

somebody comes out who l think is Samuel’s

gateman

Gateman: Eeeeh why you dey knock gate like

that Na you get this house?

Me:”am sorry please am looking for Samuel”

Gateman: My oga?

Me: Yea is he in?

Gateman: U be him wife? This one you carry bag

Gateman: Aaaah maram l no know nah enter

He allows me to enter and even helped me in

carrying some of my loads

“maram see as you come fine like mami water”

he said

“really?” I replied

“yes nah you too fine”

“thank you” l said smiling

Samuel narrates

I had gone to open the door for Annabel,

thinking she is the one, when l opened the door l

was tongue tied to see her (f-cking shit!) this jerk

again? How did she locate me here? How no no

no this is not Annabel nah

I said rubbing my face if am not dreaming

Wow but this feature in front of me is the most

beautiful of them all, she is very beautiful, she

wore a blue shirt with a blue jeans to match(this

girl is beautiful)

We both were just staring at each other at my

door front, l was surprised cos she should be the

the last person l should be seeing right now

“are you surprised to see me here?” She asks me

breaking the silence between us

“Amarachi! Why have you find me come again?

Why are you here and how did you locate here?”

I pout

“that seems like a difficult question for me to

answer you hear? Please you can see am tired pls

just let me in” she says meaning every single

words she says

“ha l don’t get it, let you in in my own house? Ha

you failed didn’t l tell you not to come my side

again?”

“mind you isn’t your house either is our house do

you get it?” She says pissing me off

“ha has my sister sent you here to disturb me?”

“Amarachi get out of this place!”

“are you not hearing what am saying? I said get

out of here” l said and she didn’t do as if l was

talking to her, she was just there giving me that

sed-ctive eye (she is a queen, looks more like a

model)

“leave here? If there is anyone leaving here

right now and this minute it should be you

Samuel cos here is also my house” she said and l

got pissed, move closer to give her a dirty slap,

as l raise my hand up l couldn’t move it again we

both just looking at ourselves

“Samuel why not just go on and slap me”

“common go on slap me” she says and l couldn’t

slap her, l just move my hand down and she left

me and went in,side

Who is she? To challenge me in my own house?

How did she locate the way to my house?

“sani!” I called my gateman to know how this

jerk entered here

“yes sir” he answers

“come here” and he came

“how did that girl entered here?”

“sir l no know oh sir l know even wan open the

gate before, Na wen she come talk say Na ur

sister”

“my sister?” I asked

“oga l swear so she no be sister sef make l go

bring am out here so she wan play play me abi”

he said going in,side to disturb Amarachi

“eeei would you come back here” l said and he

did exactly what l said

“oga so—-”

“shut up and go back to your duty” l said and left.

Episode 8

I went in,side immediately to call Esther cos l

know she’s the one behind this. How could she

tell her to come here. Amarachi was not in the

sitting room when l got in,side gosh! Where the

hell is she? I asked myself and go upstairs to look

for her, luckily for me l saw her in the other

room opposite to my own room. I went in,side

and found her arranging her stuffs

” what kind of game are you playing?” I asked

her

“Samuel l really need to rest and besides am very

hungry did you cook anything?”

“how l mean you have even gotten yourself a

room in my own absence, l should have been the

one giving you a room not you suiting yourself

like you own here” l said looking at Amarachi

who seems to be more beautiful than she was

before

“ha like l own here? Yes l own it also”

“you must be kidding me eeeh just listen this

room is meant for someone you can’t stay here”

“and besides you haven’t told me why you are

here and who sent you here” l said and

Amarachi’s phone rings distracting our mode and

she picks up

“good evening dad” she says

“yes dad” she says again

“not really”

“He’s here already” what! What kind of game is

this let it not be my dad oh

“ok” she says giving me the phone

“who is that!” I said

“your dad” she answers

“my dad?” I asked and collected the phone

Me: Good evening dad

My dad: Son how are you doing

Me: Dad am ok

My dad: Esther will be staying with you for now

she gained admission to study English language

in the same school that you are, so son you guys

should stay together, take her as your sister and

don’t be rude to her do you hear me?” My dad

says the worst l supposed to have heard

Me:”yea” l

My dad: “am not ok with that your answer”

Me:”yes dad l will”

My dad: Return the phone back and take care of

yourself

Me: You too dad

I said and returned the phone back to Amarachi

Amarachi narrate

Samuel’s dad: Amara feel free, cos there is also

your home

Me: Yes dad

Samuel’s dad: If he tries to hurt you don’t

hesitate to call me

Me: Ok dad thank you

Samuel’s dad: You welcome take care of yourself

bye (he hangs up)

Samuel was tongue tied and pissed ha l can see

that it shows on his face

“it’s your plan right?” He asks me

“my plan l can’t plan on that do you get it your

dad was even the one begging me to come, cos l

wanted not to come when l was informed” l

replied

“then why did you change your mind?”

“cos l have no other place to stay” l replied

“didn’t l tell you not to show up again?” He

stupidly ask

“listen you can’t stay in this room find another

room and stay not here” he says and turn to

leave

“you are funny here is also my own house so l

have right to stay or do whatever that pleases

me” l said

“don’t try me little girl or else you want to see

the other side of me” he said and left

“you’re very stupid rubbish is me and you in this

house oh God have you seen why l refused

coming here earlier, this Samuel is too stubborn

well let me find something to eat first” l said and

went to the kitchen

Samuel narrates

Amarachi do you think coming here can change

anything? It doesn’t change anything it will

even make my plans easier.

Amarachi for slapping me am going to bleep you

and you are going to regret it, l said and smile a

little. Hmmmm but how can l do that when we

both are like cat and dog. Should l start being

nice to her? Yea nice to her? No l can’t oooh God

am confused, that girl always makes me fear

sometimes, whatever l will still teach her a lesson

l said to myself and collected my phone

Gosh! 10 missed calls from Annabel?

I called her back

Me: Anna l missed your calls

Annabel: Yea am sorry l couldn’t make it to your

house

Me: Hmmm is alright we will see tomorrow then

Annabel: Yea hope you have eaten

Me: Not really nd you?

Annabel: Same

Me: Try and eat nah

Annabel: I will you too

Annabel: I hope you’re not angry for not

showing up

Me: Yea am not

Annabel: Ok goodnight

Me: Good night

I hanged up

After answering the call, l went to the kitchen to

go look for what to eat, on getting there l met

Amarachi cooking.

Me: What are you doing?

Amarachi: Do l need to tell you that am cooking

Me: Amarachi l own this house so mind the way

you talk to me

Amarachi: The house is mine also( she says still

busy with her cooking)

Me: Why using those things without informing

me

Amarachi: Samuel can you just let me be am

very hungry l don’t have time for your quarrels

shit cos of that comment she makes l move

closer to her and collected the knife she was

using to slice onions

Amarachi: Give me back the knife

Me: I want to use it cos it’s mine go use yours if

you have any

Amarachi: Ok

She says and to turn to leave the kitchen

“where the hell are you going to?” I asked and

she didn’t even reply

Like she is angry? Mtcheeew what ever

“why did she leave her food on fire?” I

continued with the food, after cooking l took

mine and hers to the dinning room and went to

her room to have a little more quarrel with her

and also to tell her to come eat, but when l got

in,side, l was flabbergasted when l didn’t see

Amarachi. I searched all the wh0le room and l

couldn’t find her, l came outside and there was

no trace of her.

Where the hell did she go to? I asked myself

“sani!” I called my gateman

“Oga” he answered

“did you see Amarachi?” I asked immediately he

shows up

“Oga you mean your sister?”

“yea do you see her?” I asked

“yes sir she say make l open gate for am naso l

“did he tell you where she was going?”

“oga l asked her she no talk, she dey do like

“open the gate for me” l said and went in,side the

house to take my car keys and left to go look for

her

“where the hell is this girl, she just want to put

me in,side trouble God! What have l done? Where

did she know? She’s just starting school here and

she doesn’t have any friend neither does she
