By Esther Ochoga
They took me back with themselves to the hospital and told Peter to provide the money, we got to the hospital and soon after peter joined me there…
Peter: What’s your plan on how to settle the bill?
Akor: I have no idea but why Belial go do me like this na
Peter: that girl na stingy spirit, why she go collect her money back?
Akor: I wonder oo, what does she need money for?
Peter: you no see as she fresh, even though I see her for Agnes body, she still fresh inside the body pass Agnes weh get am
Akor: you haven’t even met her, you would have understood that, if not that she’s a spirit she’d never have accepted me. That girl fine.
Peter: I understand my guy
Akor: wow, see that nurse over there? She’s so beautiful?
Peter: are you mad? I don’t understand, what was that? Oh my God, I must be dreaming… Akor what is wrong with you? You still have the gut to stare at a lady? Do you remember why we are here?
Akor: I am just kidding…
Peter: what do we do about the bill, I wonder why they are thinking I am the one responsibile for you… I wish I had allowed you to die that day
Akor: I am mad at you self, you would have allowed me die na, by now I would have been enjoying my life with so much wealth in the spirit world just like Belial and I can easily choose any woman I want…
Peter: I see, but remember… “Only a stubborn fly follow a corpse to the grave” if you don’t stop now, you may get into a bigger trouble, don’t misuse this second chance…
Akor: I hear you, I will be more careful.
Peter: how much do you have for the hospital bill
Akor: I have about 30k in my account
Peter: shuuuu, na so you rich? This okada get money oooo
Akor: how much will you add for me please, at least you are doing a white collar job
Peter: NEPA work is a brown collar job my brother… The white don fade. Well, I have about 1300 naira in my account, and some cash
Akor: how much cash do you have please
Peter: I was having 4500 naira before… I used 2000 to collect card for you and I use some of the money for internal expenses… The only change remaining is 90 naira, I can sacrifice that for you too…
Akor: what is your use? As old as you are you have 1300 in your account and 90 naira physical cash… I thought my situation was bad but yours is on another level…
Peter: hey don’t insult me
Akor: sorry but this your own is just so bad, I think Vicky is the cause of this laziness, she doesn’t bill you! You therefore have zero responsibility.
Peter: Vicky broke up with me…
Akor: what did you say?
Peter: Vicky broke up with me…
Akor: how, what did you do?
Peter: Akor, it was all your fault, Belial took her away from me, she told her the truth about me.
Akor: it shall never be well with Belial… That girl is so beautiful and wicked at thesame time…
Peter: what’s beautiful about a spirit, you need to stop fantasising about that lady. Wishes come true, be careful with your words, remember what you said the pastor told you.
Akor: I remember, I will be careful… I think you should visit Vicky and explain to her how you feel about her, you have been so faithful to the relationship you have with her. Just talk to her, don’t sit here thinking you have lost her, she must have missed you so much. I think she’s just waiting for you to try winning her back… What she does for you is beyond imagination and I think she’s not after what you have but after your good heart. You are a good person Peter, and I think you deserve the best. Despite the fact you can be very stupid and annoying sometimes, you are still a very sweet guy…
Peter: okay, but why did you say I am sweet? That’s not manly na…
Akor: so everything I said, that’s the only thing that caught your attention? See why I said you are stupid? In short I collect all my complements and advice back
Peter: Do you think I need them? After all the advice and complements na 1300 still dey my account, so?
Akor: I don’t blame you
Peter: “I am not born to be blamed”
Akor: I hate you…
Peter: I hate you more
The security man close to us started yelling at us, telling us they brought us to that place because we did a fake transfer and not argue like co- wives… Peter immediately stood and told me he wants to go and see Agnes and ask for help and she will visit Vicky too, that I shouldn’t expect him anytime soon… Shebi you said you didn’t need my advice? I don’t have your time Peter said and left…
Immediately Peter left all my attention was focused on the beautiful nurse sitting not very far from me… At a point I could bear it anymore and decided to talk to her but immediately I said hello and she lifted up her face… I got another shock of my life!
THE ADVENTURE OF AKOR
Episode 28
By Esther Ochoga
I was surprised to see that she was one lady I knew from my village…the intriguing part is that the lady did not even finish secondary school, how on Earth is she a nurse here?
Immediately I saw her face all the crush disappeared and I acted like a big Uncle, how are you Titi, I fine o uncle Akor… You ra sickness? She asked. Yes, but I am better now. Thin God she said, you are now a nurse you
and this your English is still this bad, I wan see the person weh employ you. Even your broken English is still really bad! Uncle Akor no insit me oooo… “What is no insit me o” don’t dare call me uncle so that anyone will hear you ooo, I said and left her…
PETER’S POV
I went home and I was told Agnes travelled… I was so angry and decided to go see Vicky and apologize to her.
I left the house, forgetting that I was left with only 90 naira and transport to Vicky’s house is 200naira… It was when the bike man dropped me that I realized I was having just 90 naira. Wahala, I groaned in my mind… Oga, “I forget my wallet for house and na only 90 naira I get here”
What did you say? Do you know how much we buy fuel now? Bros just give me my and make sure you don’t waste my time… While the drama was ongoing the security man at Vicky’s house came out and asked why the bike man is yelling at me, I told him I forgot my wallet at home…
how much be the money weh you wan embarrass my madam boy? He said
Heyyy, who is your Madam’s boy? I cut in…
He ignored me totally and paid the bike man and told me madam is waiting for me upstairs, that was when I realized Vicky has been watching the drama, “what a shame”.
I went inside and saw Vicky coming downstairs, I quickly knelt down where I was standing…
She asked me what I was doing in her house, I told her I haven’t come to try to win her back but have come to ask for forgiveness…
“I made a mistake by lying to you, seriously I wish I was everything I told you I was. I was so much in love with you and was scared to lose you, I know if I’ve told you the truth, you’d never accept to be my girl… When I met you, at first I thought I will just spend time with you and move on and even if I want to get married I will choose from my village or church, but as time goes on, I saw a bigger picture of you. You are a rare Gem Vicky, you are a virteous woman, your price is above that of rubies! You are the Esther of our generation because I have seen you standing up for many… You are the Naomi of our time because even when I act the way you don’t like you still say “Anywhere I go you go”… Vicky you are everything a man wants in a woman and I am a disgrace to have hurt you… I said all this in tears while she sat down looking at me.
When I finished talking, she told me she has another man in her life already. I was shocked to hear this… “Just two days she already got another man? Were the men on queue before? This lady that acts as if she can’t live without me has replaced me within two days? I fear who no fear women!” I said to myself…
Please baby don’t do this to me, I will just die here… My friend Akor has been in the hospital for about four days now. He is fine now but he’s not allowed to leave the hospital until full payment is made… I have been running around to get help and also thinking about you, how can I lose two of my friends at thesame time? Vicky please give me one last chance and I will make it up to you…
While I was still begging, a guy walked in and saw me on my knees, he then ask Vicky, is this the houseboy you told me about?… Vicky smiled and said yes! I passed out…
