THE ADVENTURE OF AKOR
Episode 19
By Esther Ochoga
She opened her eyes and saw that peter already let the temple, she told me my son, I am not done yet don’t speak when the spirits are speaking…
Who is your son? Madam look at me, you can never give birth to a handsome guy like me, this is how y’all deceive the gullible minds into believing that their mother is a witch I said and wanted to leave when she demanded for offering…
Peter, I called out please come… peter came and ask me what I am still doing there with this blind seer, immediately peter said that, the seer yelled how dare you insult the great one… peter looked around looking for the great one great one she was talking about and asked her a rhetorical question, ‘where is the great one’? ‘madam, look at me very well… there is nobody I don’t insult ooo, you can ask my friend… there was even a day I insulted someone and they beat me up but I didn’t stop oooo, why will you be this fake?’… Peter said
He turned to me and asked me why I called him, I told him the woman is asking for offering… peter started laughing and clapping his hands like a market woman, Akor, come again what did you say? I repeated myself and peter looked at her and told her ‘what have you seen that you are demanding for money’ Akor please let leave this place…
We left the place and headed straight to mama Odashi’s kitchen… I told peter that our lunch must have been ready and waiting for us at home but peter insisted we eat lunch there… we sat and lunch was served while eating a very beautiful lady walked into the restaurant, I was staring at her and literarily couldn’t get my eyes off her, peter was just looking at me while I was looking at the girl and was shaking his head… I acted as if I didn’t see him and continued staring I couldn’t let such beauty slip through my fingers and I decided to go talk to her.
Hello beautiful lady, how are you doing?
Fine and you?
I am fine, you are so pretty I said
She blushed and said thank you?
What’s your name?
Before she could answer a guy walked in and said “honey what’s taking you so long? And who is this guy looking like a beggar? Why not give him 500 naira so he can get something for himself?” When I had that I was so angry and I started yelling… how dare you? do you know whom I am? Look at this stupid man calling me a beggar, even my gateman is far better and richer than you…
The man told me to calm down but I kept yelling and insulting him, he took his phone out and made a short call and within a twinkle of an eye some hefty men walked in and one of then lifted me from the ground and put me on his shoulder… I started calling peter for help but peter was nowhere to be found.
They took me outside and asked me to kneel down, I told them I won’t do that, “do you know who I am, how dare you treat me this way, I will sue you…” before I could finish what I was saying one of them landed me a thunderous slap and ask me who are you? I immediately replied ‘I am nobody sir’ and I slowly knelt down, I didn’t hear anything with one of my ears for few seconds…
When all this was going on I was thinking the lady will caution her man just the way they do in movies but the lady was just there looking at me and smiling. Oh God what have I gotten myself into?
They were about to beat me up when mama Odashi ran out and started pleading with the man to spare me, I was so ashamed of myself.
The man finally let me go and I went back into the restaurant but still didn’t find peter there. I paid mama Odashi and left for home, while I was going on my bike I saw peter from a distance ‘running with the speed of light’ I speed up and caught up with him and told him to stop running but he refused to stop and didn’t even care to look at me… I left him and went home.
5min later, I saw peter ran into the compound and was locking the gate… when he finished locking the gate he started running towards me, immediately he lifted up his eyes and saw me sitting, he started running to the gate again shouting ghost ghost… what kind of human being is this I said to myself and started running after him.

I was running after peter and telling him to stop, I told him hope I rode passed him on the way and reminded him that I even offered to give him a ride home on my way but Peter refused to stop but continue running… I stopped running after him and went home.
Agnes saw me while entering the compound and quickly brought the clothes I gave her to wash in the morning, and told me she brought my lunch but I was not at home. I told her to go and bring the food…
I went into my room to arrange my clothes, when I heard a knock on my door… I went out and saw Agnes with a delicious plate of pounded yam and vegetable soup. I smiled at her and sincerely this was the first time I saw how beautiful she was… Agnes you are very beautiful… how come I have not noticed this your beauty all this while? She smiled and said thank you and left.
As she was leaving and I was about to open my door to enter with the food when I heard peters saying…‘if you move with that food I move you’ I turned back and the following conversation ensued…
Me: what brought you back? Oh no! I thought you were finally gone so I can rest
Peter: well, after running for sometimes I got to an uncompleted building and started thinking about the whole thing and also remembered you told me while running after me that you offered me a ride of which I remembered someone did while I was running for my life
Me: hold on…you were running for which life? Were you the person being assaulted?
Peter: my guy, forget grammar, you were not being assaulted but being beaten, open your teeth let me see, did you lose any teeth?
Me: peter, you are heartless… in short you are evil! How can you leave me in such difficult situation? What are friends for? Instead of running to get help you came back and was even locking the gate… What kind of human being are you?
Peter: I should be the one asking you what kind of human being you are….why are you so obsessed with women? Akor what is your problem? Them do you? How come you are always getting in trouble because of women and still chasing after them?… We are still trying to figure out what to do with your spiritual wife and you still went after another woman today… I was surprised seeing you back this strong. them for beat womanizing commot from your body…
Me: Peter, i don try na… It’s being a while I had anything to do with any woman na, this Belial the kill my spirit, as it stands now my waist is so stiff
Peter: na woman go kill you… Won’t you drop the food? Please bring water let’s start eating…
Me: Peter, do you know Agnes is very beautiful? I saw her clearly today and I was like damn… Her curves are so perfect and she also got the perfect smile
Peter: am I dreaming or what, Akor!!!! Are you serious right now? I can’t believe my ears… I cleaned my ears and ask him to repeat what he just said
Me: Peter don’t be like that, help a friend please… Remember I told you my waist is very stiff now. Can I use your room? since it seems mine is haunted.
Peter: thunder fire you plus my room… How can you be this unreasonable? What about Belial? Don’t you think she will come after you if you try anything stupid? Akor, why can’t you have some self control? At least get rid of Belial first before thinking about any other lady… This is astonishing!
Me: you are really surprising me Peter, remember you don’t believe in ghost, Why are you so scared of ghost now?… Just one night Peter, please…
Peter: Akor, na craziness the worry you. You can’t be this stupid to think about doing such thing and again with Agnes? No na… At this point of your life, you are supposed to be the most faithful Christian on earth, you are supposed to be very close to God so that God in his infinite mercy will deliver you from this problem… Today is Monday, I didn’t go to work but dedicated this day to help you but look at what I got. You made me run for my life some hours ago and you are trying to cause another trouble for me? I refuse to be part of this… Please allow me to eat in peace!
Me: I always know you to be very weak… The only thing that is strong in you is your mouth… In short I don’t even need you help finish eating and leave my room…
Peter: I will leave your room but will surely comeback for dinner!
Peter finished eating and left, and I started making plans to make Agnes spend the night in my room… I waited for her patiently to bring dinner! I took my bath and went into the compound to relax in front of my room when I saw peter dressed up in “yellow trouser, red shirt and white canvas shoe” I shouted peeeeeeter, what kind of dressing is this?
He told me “you won’t understand, I am going to see my woman. I am well dressed today because she told me to look very good before coming, so I have to bring this dresses I have been preserving to go and use and do shakara in the village out today, I know you are tripping” He said and I started laughing uncontrollably… Before I could finish and tell him what I have to say, he already left.
I was still laughing when Agnes came with my dinner… She was wearing a skimpy dress which was very revealing. She dropped the food and wanted to leave when I told her if she could spend the night with me in my room… She started scratching her head but later obliged. I was so happy and quickly went inside to eat my food…
At about 11pm I had a knock and it was Agnes, she was looking all shade gorgeous. I welcomed her and we started talking about random things… We later slept together…
I woke up in the morning feeling very happy… When I looked around I found myself in the graveyard!
