HELL GATE 18+

Episode 2

I never forget the slums for once, I always visit
there to see my friends, Poppy Mama is
terribly sick and I know she won’t survive
the illness, she died a Month later.
she didn’t
even wait for me to fulfil my promises to
her. Cruel world, any money I have I send it
to Rex and Anthony to rgister in school
and further their education, they won scholarsh¡p
too to finish their Secondary education.
when I received the letter I was so happy.
I remembered the dream we shared Rex
always dreamt to be a lawyer and Anthony
he wants to be a cop, I always see the need to
be a doctor, to save life is what I want to
do and I am determined to offer free
medical care to the homeless roaming
in our streets. Then we will set out to look for
books in the waste bin, or visit homes to beg
for books in any form to read, many kindhearted
people will give us books and many people
will rather burn their old books than to give us.
any money given to me I sent it to my friends,
we visited libraries together to read and research.
we all have the same goal but different dreams.
Anytime Chief and his wife travelled Jezebel will
host orgy in the mansion with her friends.
disturbing my reading section, the most annoying
is Chief wife who I escaped her advances
many times, I don’t know why Chief is cursed
with such Pharaoh’s wife. I was in my room reading
when Jezebel came to my room and locked the door,
she starked herself unclad before me asking
me to have s€× with her, I refused to do what she demanded
she start crying and shouting “please
don’t rape me” Chief opened the door with
spare key, without hearing the part of my
story, I was arrested and thrown into darkness
I was beaten by the police like someone
who killed the president of the country to
confess crime that I know nothing about.
my in-mates also did the same thing Judging
me as if they are God, asking me why
did I rape the good daughter of a kindman.
the entire City cried out for my head,
no one wants to associate with me, I was banned
to receive visitors, I was taken to another
cell that I won’t see any form of light.
I was arranged for court, differnt lawyers
visited me to help me out and won’t return. those who came twice didn’t return
another time again, WAEC result was published
I had As in all my subjects, I was shown
by Chief and he promised me to never use it,
I cried that day, my friends didn’t even visit
me, darkness and beaten is the only comfort
for my wounded soul, politicians promised
Justice to Chief to obtain favor from him
for the upcoming elections, lawmakers
seat to extend, jail sentence for rape, tears
drop from my eyes, what a world for the helpless.
