"Where are we going?" Rukkayya asked as soon as they got in to the car.
"Hold your horses ma'am! Do me a favour ma'am, put this on," Ahmad handed her a blindfold.
She looked at him blankly before she obliged.
"Are you going to sell me?"
That cracked him up. "Why would you think that?"
"Well you're acting sinister. First you got home acting all strange, then you suggested a trip, bow you've got me wearing blindfold...very kidnapper style! Since I trust you blindly, it wouldn't be odd to ask how much I'm gonna cost right?"
'I trust you blindly' kept echoing in his mind that did not ease the weight he carried on his chest.
Ahmad cleared his voice. "How much do you think?"
"Heyy! You're being a typical Nigerian answering a question with a question."
Ahmad laughed. "I'm not going to sell you but you're right this is kidnappish."
"In this case you don't need the blindfold then. I won't run anywhere. Everywhere I know in this town is related to you, I have no hiding place, that's added advantage."
"Yeah, I've got all the advantage alright." She laughed.
"What?"
"Your accent."
"I have an accent?" Ahmad looked at her in disbelief.
"Uhhuh, you've got that Fulani voice comedians always imitate whenever they are telling danFulani jokes."
"That can't be!"
"Its true plus that slight English drawl, makes it very...unique."
"Mrs, did you just admit that I have a unique voice?"
"I was talking about your accent besides I have a blindfold on so I don't know what I'm talking about."
"What an excuse!"
They arrive at their destination after fifteen minutes drive and a couple of seconds down an untarred road.
"You can take your blindfold off now." Rukkayya gently pulled the blindfold off her face. The bright sunlight streaked across her face, it took sometime before her eyes adapted to the brightness. They were parked in a garage made of thatched roofing.
She turned to him in amazement, a smile covering her features, "Where are we?"
"Lets go find out." The two of them got out of the car at the same time. Before she could get a good look around, a middle aged man ran towards them.
