THE ADVENTURE OF AKOR
Episode 11
By Esther Ochoga
When the shoe finally came to my bed side I started screaming and I woke screaming but notice it was a dream… the joy that filled my heart at this point knows no bound…
Peter rushed into my run and asked why I was trying to bring the roof down with my shout… I told him about my dream and he said I must be hallucinating, he also asked me why I keep experiencing this issues only when betty comes around, I told him I have been thinking about that too and keep wondering why it is so.
I think you should stop seeing that betty, try calling Alice to come over, remember Alice stayed with you for about two weeks before and nothing of such happen… just call her to come over
Thanks peter, I will tell her to come over this weekend…
Peter do you think I am going crazy?
Not really, I think you are just thinking too much about something that does not exist, or you feel that way only when you are around betty because of the slap you received from her, maybe you are disgusted by her presence. Akor, I hate seeing you like this please put yourself together.
Thanks for everything peter…
I went to work and later that day I called Alice and asked if she can come around for the weekend… she agreed spending the weekend with me and I was a bit relieved…
ALICE’S POV
This boy called Akor is very stupid, see the time he is calling me… thank God this my ugly boyfriend is so dumb to notice this… why am I with this guy? I hate it when he smile, and its so sad that his friend Elias will keep telling him he has a good smile and he will be happy showing off his brown teeth…
His body odour and the snoring part gives me nightmares each time I plan to visit him. if not that Akor is a broke guy with big ego I would have managed him… Akor doesn’t even pay my bills but the thing is that I love him because he knows how to treat a woman and he’s clean…
I am with this thing called Okopi only because he pays my bills… I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard his annoying voice…
Baby, why are you so quiet okopi said…
Nothing please, I am fine and stop asking me such question…
What did I do? Is it a bad thing to check if you are okay? Alice why are you always like this when we are together? is it because you know I love you?
Just shut Okopi, I am not in the mood for your drama, you keep telling me how much you love. What have you done for me with that love?
Hahaha, Alice you are a drama queen
okay, I am sorry for asking…
Okopi, you called me a drama queen? You have the guts to insult me? I am living this house tomorrow… I think I need a breath of fresh air, I said and left the sitting room
I went into the bedroom and started laughing, because I have just gotten the permission to go and spend the weekend with Akor…
The next day I went to Akor’s house in the afternoon… he was not around but I have a key to his room. When I entered the room there was something strange about the place but I couldn’t figure out what the problem is…
I went straight to the bathroom to have my shower but while in the bathroom, I had a knock on the door, I told the person to hold on but the person kept knocking… I quickly finish bathing and rush out to know who was at the door but found no one…
I went to the bedroom to wear something, but had a knock on the door again. I went back to check who’s at the door but there was no one there… I was so angry at this point and yelled.. “who is that crazy person disturbing my peace?” Immediately I finish asking that question I heard a sound of a mug cup smashing to the ground in the kitchen… I shouted Jesus and….

I ran out of the room but ran back when I noticed I was almost naked… I asked myself why I as scared and I laughed because its normal for things to fall and break in the kitchen if its not properly kept… I tiptoed and peep to see if there’s something in the kitchen but there was nothing.
I went back to the bedroom, dressed up and head straight for the market to get food item so I can make something for myself and Akor…
Peter, good afternoon
How are you doing ‘our wife’
Our wife hummmm?
Yes na, I wish you know how much Akor cares about you… peter said
Thanks peter, why are you at home? No work today?
I am off for 1week dear, peter said…
Let me hurry to the market?
Okay… peter said.
PETERS POV
This lady is so beautiful, I wonder why Akor will have this kind of lady and still be going after other women… I wonder why peter is not learning from me. I keep only Vicky as my girlfriend and I don’t cheat on her…
I am not very happy about the fact that Vicky took me to her parent; my only joy is that she introduced me as a friend… but the way the mother was smiling and all over me, I hope she’s not thinking I want to marry her daughter. What do I have that will be enough to take care of a woman? Imagine the kind of family Vicky comes from… very rich family. I wonder what my own father was doing when all this people were making their money…
Back there in the village my father keep disturbing me to go into farming, till now what has he achieved from the farm? Instead of going to the city to make money like Vicky’s Dad he choose to remain in the village and eventually died as a retched farmer… thank God I left that village, at least when I go home, there envy me and call me a ‘town boy’…
The next time I will travel home, I will make sure I get a chieftaincy title…
Why is Vicky wasting my time, she said she’d come pick me up but until now I have not heard from her… if I wait for her for the next 10min I will not go anywhere with her, is it because she’s making me dinner that she’s now growing wing, just 10 more minu…before I could finish the sentence I saw her car approaching me
Hello baby, sorry I kept you waiting, I got an emergency call from the office she said
You would have informed me, I am a very busy person and even with my busy schedules I make out time for you, I will not be happy to learn that you are taking my attention for granted
I am sorry now, common, baby smile for me. No please, I am not in the mood… you know I love you and will not intentionally hurt you for any reason she said… I saw that her mood is changing and I quickly smiled, gave her a hug and told her I love her too. Can we go now she said… off course.
While we were about leaving I saw Alice coming back from the market, I welcomed her and we left…
ALICE POV
I am so tired, why is this weather this hot? How am I supposed to cook now?
I sat on the couch in the sitting room and dozed off… It felt like I was half asleep and half-awake when I saw a very beautiful lady coming out of the kitchen, she came close to where I was and started staring at me, after sometimes she told me that if I know I am woman enough I should try sleeping in this house…
I jerked up and saw the entrance door closing by itself…
