"Got a bag full offeelings and a heart full of regrets."
Wizkid ft Ayra Starr Too Sugar.

Tiana had arrived at Mohammed, Aishat's Brother's House, about an hour ago only to find Aishat alseep with bruises and dried tears.

She called Chidera and Johnathan to let them know what happened and they were both on their way. Tiana informed Deji, Tamara and Aunty Ronke of her going to Lagos too.

Mohammed wasn't around when she got there but his maids and security guard led her in.

"Christiana." Aishat called out lowly. Christiana immediately held her hand.

"How are you? Do you need water?" Tiana asked hastily giving her a glass of water.

"Thank you." Aishat thanked drinking the glass of water.

"I'm sorry I know I should have called you or told someone---Noo. I'm just glad you are okay." Tiana cut her off hugging her from the side of her bed as Aishat's eyes watered.

"I was scared, I thought I would die. After I took his phone,I called you but a man picked up then he entered into the house to get something. After he left I called Mohammed but he was in Ghana. I didn't even expect him to come so quick nor even call you but I am glad he did."

"I wasn't even going to work for about 2 weeks. I don't know if I still have job. Tiana the things he did to me..he has scared me for life. I don't know how..how..how I can ever get better from this." She cried,they heard sob coming from the door and saw Chidera there with Johnathan behind her.

Chidera hugged her crying and Tiana's tears flowed continuously. Johnathan's heart broke into pieces seeing her like this. When he saw she did seem unhappy but not like this.

"When did it start?" Johnathan asked trying to touch her but she flinched theb he fell back.

"After I came back, he slapped me when I told my mum she told me to take it like she did. She said he was a good man maybe he was just drunk." All of them shook their heads.

"Oh you guys are here already." Mohammed said entering her room. He was dark skinned, tall, bald with full beards he came in wearing a grey native and a cap.

"Mohammed." Aishat hugged him and he couldn't believe everything that happened to his sister. He was basically living in Ghana so he never really talked to her much except for once in a blue moon he would send her money.

They hadn't seen each in other in years.
He greeted Christiana and Chidera and shook Johnathan firmly.

"He's already taken care of. So you don't need to worry about anything. The maids here will get you anything you need and the security guard is outside. I have to go back to Ghana now I have work to do but call me if you need anything. " He said checking his wristwatch. She pursed her lips nodding her head in understanding.

"Have a safe trip and thank you." Aishat said to him. He nodded and left waving bye to her friends.

"Are you hungry?" Tiana asked her. She shook her head 'No'.

Johnathan motioned for them to excuse him. They left the room looking at her with sad eyes.

"I feel like such a bad friend. For weeks and I couldn't have come to check up on her." Chidera stated sitting down in the living room.
