RIDE OR DIE OKBs contest

It was a dark, moonless night and coupled with the streetlights being off as a result of the power outage, one could barely see past the car in front, even with the headlamps blaring at full gusto.

Efe slowed the car as the driver of the vehicle ahead had done the same because there was a Police mounted roadblock in front. We were just about five cars away from the Police.

I had noticed the trend in the area recently. It had begun right after the son of the new Police Chief for the precinct had been murdered in cold blood. I heard it had been to send a message to the Chief who had cracked down hard on many drug dealers in the area.

The Police Chief was obviously still playing hardball and I wondered if this road block tactic made much difference as I still heard gunshots consistently every night and drug deals still went down as usual.

"Shit!" Efe cursed, hitting on the wheel with his fist. I turned to him concerned, knowing something was horribly wrong from the look on his face.

"What is it?" I asked and he glanced briefly at me before turning his gaze back to stare at the back of the vehicle in front of us..

He didn't trust me.

We had only been dating for two months., I wasn't even certain yet if we could call what we had, dating.

I had known Efe all my life. I had watched him rise from a mere corner boy for the kingpins in the area, acting as a look out for them and alerting if the police were in the area, now he was presently the head of the hard drugs syndicate, they were a wholesale operation in charge of supplying the four sections of town.

I heard he had killed the former heads to take the position, I had heard a lot of things about him. You would think that would make me scared and run in the opposite direction from him but growing up in a tough neighbourhood in the poor side of town, I’d had to sharpen my survival skills early in order to survive.

Efe was respected in the neighbourhood and being with him meant some sort of respect for myself, I figured. I and my family would be sacred and be under the protection of the boss.


Only a few people had this information that he headed the syndicate. I knew it because my cousin was the babymama/girlfriend to Efe’s right hand man, Maro. She was ride or die, and even though she kept her mouth shut most of the time, I was able to weasel some information out of her from time to time.

I was sharp like that. My friends called me crazy, I wasn't too sure how true that was but thinking on it, I had done some questionable things that some uptight people might wonder about, but I had always had my reasons.

One of which was dating a dangerous man like Efe.

It had been like any other day when he had walked into the fast food joint where I worked. I had taken his order but noticed he had been staring at me unusually. At the end of his meal, he had approached me and asked for my number.

I had been surprised but I had written it on a piece of paper and handed it over.

Maybe I was indeed crazy, maybe I loved danger or maybe I just had feelings for him.

Efe was good looking. Tall and chocolate skinned, he had the right type of body a woman lusted after. He carried himself with an air of confidence befitting his position in town. Who was I to say no when a guy like that asked me out on a date?

He was careful with his shady dealings and had never been arrested. on the outside, he was a young man of thirty two years who legally owned a few car wash companies in town and was making a pretty good income off it. Of course the car wash business was a guise to launder and clean up the drug money but what the law did not know couldn't hurt anyone, I guess.

Even though it had been a few dates, I really liked him. He was quiet, didn’t talk much and a bit of an introvert but unmistakably smart and he did make me laugh plus he was an excellent lover.

I didn't consider myself a material girl but the fact that he wasn't broke like most guys in the area of his age, was definitely a plus in my books.

I was into him and I knew he knew this. If we went on for much longer, I would begin to feel too deeply for him and the problem was, I wasn't exactly sure what this was between us. I sure as hell didn’t want to become his baby mama, I wasn’t cut out for that life. I wanted something permanent but I knew better than to tell him that.

It would be too much pressure on him and he would end it.

The police were now a car away from us and with the way he tapped his foot nervously, I knew he was quite scared. I decided to put my smart mind to work.

Drug dealers like Efe always carried a weapon for their protection. I had never seen one on him but I had a feeling it was what made him so nervous. There was a car in the car and it wasn’t hidden.

This was my defining moment. I could choose to mind my business and wait for the police. They would check the car, probably find the gun and Efe would be charged with possession of an unregistered weapon. Or I could step up, show him he could trust me, I could be 'ride or die'.

This was the time to prove myself, show him where I really stood.

"Efe!" I called again turning fully to look at him, the urgency evident in my voice and the expression on my features must have gotten to him because I had his full attention. "Where is it?"

"Where is what?" He asked still trying to play dumb.

"Cut the dumb act, you know what I’m talking about, you only have a few seconds before the police search this car... And you know when they search it, they will find it, I doubt you relish going to prison and having a record. So... where is the gun?"

He sighed then, "I don't want to involve you in this, if you get caught you could go to jail, I wouldn't...."

"Where is it, now?!" I snapped raising my voice as the police were done with the car in front and waving for us to move forward.

"Glove compartment." He clipped and I worked fast.

Opening the glove compartment in front of me, I snatched the piece, shoving it into my handbag and zipped it closed just as he moved the car forward.

Efe wound the glass down as he turned on the light in the car and the two policemen on either side of the vehicle flashed their lights in our faces.

The one on Efe’s side of the car asked him to alight and pop the trunk of the car open. Efe complied leaving me with the other one who was staring at me.

I consciously tried to settle my nerves but doubted I was doing a good job of it. If I were, I doubted the officer would be looking at me like this, trying to decipher if I was hiding something.

I told myself I was paranoid because I was guilty and tried to make a light conversation instead.

“How’s your evening going?” I began knowing it was a stupid question to ask and regretted asking the moment the words had left my lips.

"Good.” he clipped, asking a question of his own. “Where are you coming from?"

"Err... A date with him..my ahh boyfriend." I managed through pauses deciding I needed to work on my lying some more. If I wanted to be ride or die, I would have to be a better composer of untruths. This didn’t seem to be going well.

Efe had picked me up from work and was dropping me at home, where I knew we were going to make passionate love as we had been doing the past few months but I couldn't tell the officer that.

Efe returned and I was glad we would be moving away from them finally but just as Efe opened the door, the officer suddenly spoke up again.

"Can you open the glove compartment, Miss?" He asked me and Efe’s eyes met mine.

I looked away and did as the officer asked.

"Alright." He said as there was nothing to see in there and I was just about to heave a sigh of relief when he suddenly spoke up again.

"Is that your handbag, miss?" He asked .......

Lilyomi:

Mma! U forgot me....

No I did not but can't recognise ur name. Can u tell me what u use on the group watsapp. I'm sorry

Nice story buh too short

@repo girL u ar aways doing this thing d.....delaying and delaying witH the stoory until we forget the story line sef . The same thing u did with false pretences. Me am tired o. Let me look for other stories to read. I can't shout. *vexing*

I doff my hat for you @ Repogirl.... You are of the highest level.

As for those who criticize you for updating late; don't take it too much to heart. I also write and I know how hard it is to write in Nairaland, especially when circumstances contrive to betray you. Happened to me a couple of times, most recently with my current running story. They stole my phone on campus and it was the only way I could update. Had to wait until two months to get a new phone and get pass some stuff and people still talk sh*t about my efforts. I left them because they don't understand.

@rapmike when pple complain about updates being slow it means one thing only ....that they are enjoying d story and the writer is doing a superb and wonderful job, its not like they don't understand that there are other circumstances beyond the control of the writer. I followed repogirl's story titled false pretences, I was so glued to the story dat I was checking for updates amost every day till I got tired. Das y I sed she's always doing this thing.

Couldn't buy d book or even download the app

I understand you but I will say this; never think that a writer delays his/her update deliberately. Never, ever do that. We enjoy writing and people reading it and commenting as much, if not more than you guys do.

raffyreuz:
Couldn't buy d book or even download the app

sorry bout that, just use your phone browser to download/buy... You don't need the app. If you have access to a computer, even better.

Labellefille....I understand and all I can say is I am sorry... You can check back in a few months and see if the story is finally completed .... That's the best I can do.


rapmike, thanks a lot, it is only he that wears the shoes that knows where it hurts.

I strive to make every chapter as perfect as possible because I have bigger plans for this story than just nairaland.

When people read the story years later, they will not know it took months and months to finish, all they will see is whether the story is good or bad.... I could rush it and present something mediocre and below standard but that is not my aim.

It will take a while but I know slowly and steadily, I will end this story.

Thanks...

And please download my short story here oooo, if you haven't, I am watching you in Highest Definition ooo !

http://okadabooks.com/book/about/10133

gonna wait till yu complete it....

Kudos to you Anty repo..Av even download the book too but take your time and update for us



And while waiting for update the people here can please help me take a look at my new work on nairaland here"KUTANA THE GREAT..crisizm,encourage ar all expected with comments tank u all"
