Chapter One


The room was silent and looked happy with the cheerful paintings and twelve generations pictures plastered on the wall revealing that the lineage all inherited the famous pointed nose from the first man of the family. If only the room could share its cheerful mood with its occupant.

He attacked the meats in his plate like they were still breathing, and he was at the slaughterhouse cutting them into pieces. His manner at the dining room was offensive even to the inanimate objects. The chair he was sitting on could feel his restlessness, as he kept moving and shifting on it. His throat tightened in anger, it became a great task to swallow the unchewed meats in his mouth. He leaned back on his chair, his past and future staring right at him. The meal before him momentarily forgotten and the meats in his mouth was rudely spat into a napkin. He would be thirty years on February 25th. At that age, he was still living a life mapped out by his late father. He was not pleased with that and to be honest, he felt he was someone else creation. A sham. An artificial while the real him was the happy man with a simple life in his dreams.

He could remember the decisions that took place mostly in the dining room right after his father ate a heartily meal, he would belched loudly and turn to his wife
"Look at my boy, he is growing bigger each day"
His mother would reply in affirmative sometimes adding one or two compliment to please her husband. And that would set the tone for his future.
"He would be sixteen years next month. I think he should write JAMB and choose that university in Lagos. At least with 280 and above and a good score in his postUME something above 70 will secure his place at the engineering department or is it faculty?" his father asked turning his gaze on him. But he was too furious to reply. Furious and tired of their selfish attitude.

He knew his reply mattered not. All that was required of him during such conversation was too listen and if possible jot down his father's "loving"words.
He could remember when he was eight years old, sitting with his small hand tucked under his chin. His mother met him in that " terrible" position and asked him what he was doing. He told her he was thinking about his new school.
"Thinking?" his mother repeated in a tragic voice
"Why should you do something so stressful as thinking? We are here for you. As our only child we will do everything for you"
Even at a age so young, he knew his parents are wrong with his upbringing. How could thinking be stressful?

And when he showed him his Junior WAEC result, his father beamed with a large spectacle obscuring his small face.
"This is beautiful" he said, the smile splitting his face into halves
"Distinction all through?" he was surprised as if that was not his request
"You must go to a science class" he had told him this a billionth time even before he could spelt the word science.

And the present? He was in his hometown to marry his betrothed. Although the engagement was not a formal one but there's an understanding between the two families that their children would get married in the future. It was his father's suggestion. She was the second child of his late father's friend and three years younger than he was. His father again thought it would be best to marry her when she's at the right age of 27. According to him, she would have attained the higher qualification; M.s.c and PHD in view.It was quite sad his father was late, he would have been happy to watch his reaction when he realized his plan failed. The said lady got into the university very late, with strike at LAUTECH, she graduated at 25. NYSC added another year to her age. And today she is Olaonipekun Adunni, a Yoruba graduate. Although he had no issue with her course, but he knew his father would thought she was not good enough for him.
When his cousin greeted him with the "news". At first he thought he was joking. Why, he was the same person who joked on their uncle's wedding that his wife-to-be was kidnapped. Being a politician, it was highly believed. The whole family was thrown into panic. Important calls were made to the securities before he stupidly announced that he was jesting.
One would have thought that after the massacre he received that day, he would be sensible enough to know some subjects are not to be joked with. He instead ignored him climbing the stairs in twos and threes eager to eat the meal cook made for him. He was halfway into his food when he saw an invitation card with his betrothed name boldly written on it and the wedding was tomorrow.
He realized he had been deceiving himself living a sham of life mapped out for him. And for twenty nine years, three hundred and fifty four days, he was deceived.
Tomorrow, he has to start living on his own terms.

Waiting

For the next three weeks, Olaronke found out that it was hardly impossible for her to hold out on her best friend who called her every day to inquire on her well being. She decided Aina was not her enemy.

* ** *** **** **** ***
Tonight, Aina had used her other trick she learnt ages ago. She had reached out to Kunle and poured out her heart to him and once again he had surrendered. She thought as she smiled at her phone screen displaying another large amount added to her bank account. Not just that, Kunle had agreed that she could spent many months in his guest house at Abuja. She was pleased.
Men, were all the same except Oluwaniyi that pretended to be an exception to that easiest rule of hooking a man. It was quite simple; be vibrant, humorous, eager and vulnerable and watched how they came to you like a Knight. That was what she learnt from Mrs Georgina. She was waiting for the woman to go through with her divorce before she pounced on her with the secrets that was capable of destroying her life. That alimony would be hers alone. Aina smiled to herself, the future was bright for her. She would become stinkingly rich.
This rule had helped her to keep men for months which never led them to the altar. She wished a man would just make her his wife. Oluwaniyi was the one she set her eyes on and it was obvious she could no longer have him with Bonuade pregnant for him. What she would do was simple, she would followed the Yoruba adage that says "Instead of the rat to let go of the beans it cannot eat, the rat will rather lay it to waste".
If she cannot have him, no one will. She promised.
She stood all alone at the airport, waiting for Kunle to picked her up. She was about to call him again when she saw the sleek black jeep pulled beside her. She hopped in with her backpack. She had traveled light and disguised herself with her blonde low hair cut. She saw Adunni the previous day and recognized a new change in her friend. Olaronke now lied to her, she didn't mentioned her husband had a moment of insanity like Kunle told her or the investigations they are planning to carry out to discovered who was behind those mails and pictures.
She only prayed Grace did her job well, because now she could not cast any evil spell on her friend. Just psychological warfare.
They arrived into his private suite, the location suit her purpose. It was a remote place, not in the popular towns in Abuja.
She only planned to spent few days in Abuja to execute her plans.
" You said Olaronke was with us in bed that night at Glorious night?" Kunle asked, his excitement spilling all around her.
He had told her that he recognized the tattoo on her hand from Glorious night. And in truth, she did not remembered him. How many one night standers could she recalled anyway? So she quickly wielded tales that her friend was with them on the bed. Ever since she told him, he had became obsessed with the tale. And he was always repeating it. She was hoping his obsession would led him to revealed it to Wande or Adunni. It might not achieved much but at least drama would ensued and she loves drama.
They ate and slept together in the luxurious bedroom. She spent a restless and uneasy night, she couldn't wait for the day to break so she could have an early start on her mission.The following morning Kunle left for the East on his business trip. She was pleased to have him out of the way, he was beginning to stifle her.
She called the few men she hired, those whom had worked with her in the past. Together they went through the plans on her phone. Bonuade according to the information she received was very pregnant. So she arrived at her store very late in the morning and left in the evening around seven pm. She always waited for her husband outside the store. They decided it was best to kidnapped her in the afternoon. It was the most agonizing moment in Aina's life. Having to watch the clock tick very slowly before her plan would be carried out.
When it was three in the afternoon, Bonuade saw her sister's car pulled in front of her pharmacy store. She was very happy. Her sister had not talked to her since the day she got married to Oluwaniyi. The driver got out of the car, he looked new. Her sister must have gotten another driver, she thought.
The young man greeted her politely. He was all smile as he told her Mrs Ololade wanted to see her. Bonuade smiled, her sister was finally here, she wanted her to grovel a little before she forgave her. She hurriedly told one of her workers that she wanted to see her sister. In her excitement, she allowed herself to be ushered into the back seat. The face she saw was Aina and before she could scream, she felt a cold metal object pointed at her stomach.
"You can scream now. I wondered why you thought you would never see me. You and I have unfinished business" Aina taunted her as the car sped to an unknown direction
Bonuade stared in impotent anger as Aina. There was little she could do in the face of danger. There were three armed men in the car with Aina shining her teeth like it was another deadly weapon.
"So you are pregnant. You must have been thinking you have arrived" Aina said laughing out loud
"Aina where are you taking me to" she asked her face contorted in fear. They were now at a lonely road with no human in sight.
"A place where you will have an abortion. Not just that, I have arranged for a doctor that will carry out hysterectomy on you. By the time am through with you, you will be useless afterwards" Aina said each words slowly and watched her crumpled into tears.
"I will do anything you want, I will divorced him so you can have him all to yourself" she sobbed holding onto her cloth
"Too late" Aina said slapping her hands off her
She continued to wept bitterly, there was no way she would come out of this alive staring at her surroundings that was full of trees with no houses in sight. And in her pregnant condition, how could she outran three men. No one would look for her here, not the police, nor anyone. The car pulled to a stop in front of a small hut that was devoid of civilization. The car door opened, and the tall young man she assumed was her sister's driver pulled her out forcefully from the car, even though she begged him she could walk. Her right shoulder felt like it was out of its socket with the pain radiating through her. She continued to plead with him that she was pregnant but it fell on deaf ears
When they got into the hut, her fears grew legs that spun her running back to the front door before two hands caught her dragged her back. She could her Aina's laughter in the background. She was pleased with herself. The room was full of crawling insects and Aina knew how much she feared anything that crawled.
The man pushed her into the dark room and shut the door. No sooner had she settled down that different insects crawled on her. She cried her eyes out. This was too much for her.
The window opened and she saw Aina's face with the torch she held
"You must be thinking how I found this perfect location for you, right? It took me weeks and stress to find this place. I have had a lot of time to think of a punishment that befits you and thanks to your husband he speed it up with the way he treated me cruelly. This me using you to get back at him. I will be back in three days with your doctor. Have fun with your host" Aina said laughing as the window was shut in her face.
