"I will surely catch you"I heard the voice said as I run faster than my legs could carry,I yearn for water cause I was dehydrated,but who dare me to stop,I need to save my life and running faster is the only solution
I felt more appease as the voice get fainter,I decided to stop and catch my breath,I have been running all day
Suddenly I heard a sound of a roaring laughter transmitting from one point to the other and the voice said again"I will surely catch you"I couldn't hold in the fear and I felt I was in the edge of loosing my life,I screamed so loud and started running, I stopped almost bumping into two young men in white looking angelic but couldn't figure out what they look look like
"Why are you running breathlessly"they asked me in a nice and welcoming tone
"I was being chased by unknown people"I said calming down
"I will help you"they said at once and hold each of my hands
"Let her come with me"one of them said
"No she is coming with me"the other said, struggling begins and both of them were pulling me to their sides
The force they were using to pull me was too strong that I began to feel pains,my bones started cracking and my skin was tearing apart I screamed and screamed seeking for help from anywhere,this was like the usual adage from frying pan to fire
"La illaha illalah"I screamed and wake up,I checked Samimah and she just stir and continued her sleep
"So it was just a dream"I murmured,it was very scary though,I took my phone which was beside me and checked the time,it was 1:30am,
I decided to switch onn my data connection,I saw Sultana's messages popping up from what's app,we didn't later concluded our chat when Jafar interfered
Sultana
You ain't replying my message😱
Abuja boys has stolen my bestie
I can't believe this😑
I'm trekking to Abuja tomorrow 😜
Babe come online na, it's boring here without you
I smiled at how dramatic my bestie can be sometimes,I decided to reply her messages before going back to bed
"When will you ever listen?"I heard uncle said a little bit loud,I switched off my data connection and lay back quietly listening to them
"Let me be,I don't need your caring,let me decide my last days"aunt said in a final tone
"Final days?,how sure are you,you gonna die?"my uncle asked
"Ninety nine percent and please let me be"she said in a sad tone
"I am your husband Khadijah"my uncle said frustrated
"It's been long I heard you call my name and it look nice coming from you,all I wanted was your love but I know it's the last thing I will ever get from you"she was already crying
"Khadijah I am sorry"my uncle said regretfully
"There is no need to,just continue calling me by my name it makes me remember the good times when we were Young and friends and don't ever force me to visit the doctor"she concluded
Minutes were gone and I heard no sound,maybe they were in their own world thinking
If only Samimah knows what's going on in this house
