#12MIDNIGHT
Mr Thompson’s house, Linda’s father was a
bungalow but well furnished and designed.
He was a local business man who had
closed connections with men of integrity.
One could see electric light bulbs shone all
over the compound and darkness that took
over distance places. The flowers in front of
the compound rattled together by an
unseen force making it looks like the dead
were about to come among the living. Linda
laid quietly asleep in her room. The room
didn’t have enough materials in it except
her clothing and bed. She was covered with
a blanket but one could see her br-ast
standing upright. Suddenly, she began to
move her legs gently and shook her head
reluctantly with her mouth moving. The act
continued until tears began to drop from
her eyes. One could als hear her murmuring
in a dream..

#DREAM
Linda stood before Tochi knowing that she
was dead and couldn’t move or touch her.
Both were in tears crying seriously.
“The world is so wicked” Tochi began
crying. “I will miss you so much, Linda”
“No, please, don’t leave me”
“But i cannot stay. I can’t live among the
living”
“Then take me with you”
“No, stay and fight for me” blood rushed out
from her mouth. “Please, take care of
Wisdom for me. Tell him i will always love
him even in death” she began to walk into
the darkness.
“No!” Linda shouted and wanted to move
but couldn’t. “Tochi come back! I promise to
always protect you!” she cried.
Tochi looked back at her in tears and blood
all over her. She waved at her and
disappeared into the darkness.

“Noooo!” Linda shouted awake and found
tears all over her face then began to cry
physically after she tried Tochi’s number but
was switched off. “What is the meaning of
this dream?” she murmured in tears.

#SAME_MIDNIGHT
Mr Santo’s house, Kingsley’s father was also
a bungalow but wasn’t furnished like
Linda’s. There was no electricity which gave
everywhere a completes darkness. One
could feel the grasses dangling by an
unknown force. Suddenly, a gentle wind
began to blow. Kingsley laid face down in
his bed moving his legs and tears dropping
from his eyes too-he was dreaming..
:
#DREAM
He stood far away from Linda who wore
white gown bleeding from her mouth and
crying bitterly.
“Linda, stay with me, please”
“I’m sorry my love i can’t. The world is so
wicked. Please, don’t cry for me but be
strong”
“Take me with you”
“No, you have a better life to fulfil” she
began to walk away. She looked back and
waved at him then disappeared into the
darkness.

#REALITY
“Nooo!” Kingsley shouted and woke up in a
hurry. He could see himself sweating nd
shedding tears. The father, who heard his
voice knocked at his door.
“Who is there?” Kingsley asked.
“Is your father, son. Are you okay?”
“I’m fine Daddy”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, Daddy”
Mr Santo went back into his room then
Kingsley stood up and looked through the
window. He couldn’t see anything but
darkness, so he gradually closed it and laid
awake thinking about the dream.

#THE_NEXT_DAY
Vivian had planned her evil act. She was only
waiting for the time to click 4:00pm after
calling Wisdom and told him that she wasn’t
having issues with Tochi or him anymore
which got Wisdom surprised. She went into
the kitchen to meet her mother wearing a
bumbshort and a handles top.
“My darling, you really made me proud. I
can’t believe you are going to London on a
scholarsh¡p”
“Believe it Mum! When is Daddy coming back
from his trip?”
“I don’t know my dear, that reminds me, you
said you are throwing a party with your
friends today”
“Yes, Mummy”
“But remember that you have a result to
defend”
“That isn’t a problem, mummy”
“Okay, make sure you have fun”
Vivian went back to her room to call Wisdom
again because she actually enjoys hearing
his happy voice.
*
Mrs Desmond had never been so happy like
the way she was since the previous day. All
the neighbourhood heard her voice when
Tochi delivered the good news to her. Now,
she was in the kitchen preparing food when
Linda entered.
“Good evening, Mama” she greeted.
“Ehen, my daughter. How are you?”
“I’m fine, Mama”
“I can see the way you dressed. I hope you
are going to the same party my daughter
told me about.
“Yes, Mama, where is she?”
“I’m here” Tochi came out looking beautiful
in a black leggings. “Let’s go” she added.
“Make una have fun oh, but remember not
to come back late!” Mrs Desmond shouted.
On their way following the address. Linda
occasionally glanced at Tochi who always
reminded her of the dream she had. Tochi
didn’t notice any sign of sadness in her. As
they wanted to cross the main road, Linda
shouted, “Wait!”
“What?!” Tochi asked.
“Are you not seeing a vehicle coming?”
“Haaa, my protector. Keep protecting me
oh!”
“The Lord is  with you” Linda replied and
they giggled. “Don’t worry, i will always
safeguard you, God has made it 2 be so” she
added and they crossed successfully..
 
Her name is Tochukwu Desmond. She has a meek heart that makes her cry and forgives easily. She hærdly think of any person to be evil or dangerous because she is pure in heart. How would she had known that she was about to be killed by a friend whom she forgave and trusted only because she’s a good and kind hearted girl? With joy, she entered in the resident of Mr Luster with her friend, Linda whose mind never departed from the horrible dream she had. They saw other students and people who also came for the party when they finally entered into the sittingroom sparkling with beauty. Vivian came around and hugged them looking classic and beautiful too.
“Thank God you finally came” she said smiling at Tochi while Linda stared at her smiling unwillingly.
“What are friends for? Tochi replied.
“Do you want to talk to Wisdom? I can call him for you”
“No, i have done that already. You can’t believe how happy he was to know that i passed my exams”
“Yes, that’s how it should be” they smiled and stared at each other. Suddenly, Mrs Luster came out well dressed with a car key in her hand. Vivian introduced her to her friends then she went out immediately to Women’s Meeting. One could see a disc joker (DJ) at a corner getting ready with the music and drinks on the table. Linda sat closely with Tochi glancing at her wrist watch and the door occasionally, anticipating to see Kingsley.
“Don’t worry, he will come” Tochi her.
“I’m missing him already” she replied.
“I said don’t worry, Kingsley can’t disappoint us. Why don’t you try calling him?”
“He’s number isn’t going through”
“Then relax”
Few minutes later, the party began by Tochi standing close to Vivian before all the people. Linda’s mind wasn’t there, she kept staring at the door hopping to see Kingsley walked through it. Meanwhile, Vivian had poured a wine into a special glass cup where she added the poison and handed it to Tochi who smiled at her when collecting it. Everybody in the building also had their wine in their hands with exact glass cup and quantity of wine. Even Linda and Vivian.
“First i want to thank God for a successful result” Vivian began. “I’m so happy that i and my friend Tochi made it at last. Sorry, one of us, Kingsley Santo is not yet here but i believe he is on his way coming”
Hearing that, Linda glanced at the door again.
Vivian continued, “I’m using this medium to say sorry to any person i have offended especially my friends, Tochi and Linda even Kingsley. I also thank you all for coming. May God bless you all” she concluded and people clapped.
“I also give thanks to God for making me who i am today” Tochi began. “It all started like nothing but has ended like someone. I give credit to all my friends and teacher’s especially Mr Anuma for his big big grammars”
Hearing that people began to giggle.
Tochi continued, “I also thank my boyfriend, Wisdom who is schooling abroad. I will never forget Linda who had always encouraged and stood by me in times of difficulties and sorrows. All contributed for who i am today. So i say God bless them and bless you all in Jesus name”
“Amen!!” people responded and began to clap.
“So, lets toast for success and the party to begin” Vivian said raising up her glass of wine likewise other people in the building. “For success!”
“For success!” all shouted and began to drink their wine then the DJ scratched a hot music…
*
In London, having the feelings that something bad was about to happen to Tochi, Wisdom’s books fell from his hands immediately he stood up to go home after lectures. He tried to pick them up severally but they kept falling from his hands. For the last time he gently picked them up but stumbled at the door.
“Oh, my God!” a lady shouted and help him up.
“Thank you” Wisdom said.
“Are you okay?”
“I’m fine”
The lady began to help him park his fallen books with smiles on her face. She was a complete black American.
Wisdom didn’t have an idea what was happening to him so he became sad as he went home.
*
Mrs Desmond, having the same feelings, a cup of water fell from her hand and poured all over her wrapper when she wanted to drink it. “Chim oh!” she shouted. “What is the meaning of this?!” she added angrily and went in,side to change up.
*
Still with the same feeling, Mr Anuma started his car occasionally but refused to kick off. Then he came out with his hands on his wa-ist staring at it. He was wearing a voluminous trouser and shirt which he tucked-in looking like a professor.
“I just came back with this car few hours ago. Why does it want to give me a hærd time with all the sophisticated parts i changed in it yesterday?” he murmured in silence then entered to start the car again but all to no avail.
*
Back in the resident of Mr Luster, girls and boys drank and shook their wa-ist to the Timaya music blasting out of the speaker. Yet Tochi had not taken her drink.
“You are not drinking. Drink your wine” Vivian told her.
“Okay” she replied..
