The atmospheric condition of the area is not looking good, the city is dark, less pedestrian on the road due to the bad weather, Honda car passed by with the driver driving recklessly on the road. The people standing by the roadside kept yelling at the owner of the car, At the very last minute, the driver lost control of the car along side a bridge, and the only sound that was heard was the splash of the car diving into the water.
Innalillahi wainna ilahi rajiun ( From God we came and to him we shall return) that was what the people kept on chanting, after witnessing this strange incident that just happened.
Subhannallah Who was this man that just got into this bad accident, "You see, this is how spoilt rich kids drive now a days , after taking drugs and alcohol, May Allah help us" one of the pedestrian said.
Upon hearing what the man said the people left the scene as it was too late to save the person because of the distance between the bridge and the water
Just then a man dressed in a black outfit wearing a black shade came out of a jeep , And by just mere looking at the person was enough to scare the hell out of a being, He was tall with a very well built up body and his face wasn't exactly a friendly one , it was marked with all kinds of scars suspecting it to be knife cuts.
He stood by the side of the bridge where the accident just took place, He let out an evil smile before he removed his phone from his pocket then dialed a number.
From there a voice can be heard, someone saying "Are you sure he is dead" and from the voice you could easily identify that it was a lady, the man smiled and replied "Hajiya your job is done" and from the other end she let out an evil laugh.
"I really like your work scorpion, I would send your remaining balance and then I want you to leave the city for a while and that's an order", " Ok Hajiya you got no problem, until I hear from you" he said before disconnecting the call and drove his car away.

YAMALTU VILLAGE
A small town village located in the outskirts of Gombe state, with a good scenario, and cultivation, a village where the people are living peacefully with one another, most of the tribes there are the Fulani and few of the Kanuri and Hausa.
The major work of the village people is cattle rearing, farming and blacksmithing . A village where young girls at the age of 15 are married off quickly as they believed a girl is worthy and holy only if she's under her husband's care.
Based on religion practice, Islam was majorly practiced there and for western education, it only stopped at secondary school level meaning only boys are eligible to reach that level and if he wishes he can further his education in the city. For girls , when they are through with their primary education they are being married off.
A young lady which by looks was about 17 years old, carrying a pot on her head, is walking towards the river. The girl was extremely beautiful, her skin tone fair with a smooth and radiant complexion, high cheekbones, Small yet sexy lips and a nose that's slightly rounded at the tip, her eyes dark yet expressive and almond-shaped, her black hair, thick and luscious wrapped in a scarf with a body slender yet curvy with a petit to average height adorned in a beautiful fulani attire called the SAKI.
Walking and at the same time crying, as she reached towards the river, she heard someone calling onto her, "Amrita where are you going at this late hour of the day and that too alone?"
"Wollah Lado it's Inna, she sent me to fetch water" she replied to the young man who by age would be 20, A handsome tall yet slim fulani boy with his skin tone dark in complexion.
"But you know in this village no one goes near the river at this hour "
"I know Lado", he kept quiet for a while before he left knowing how Inna can be, after reaching the river bank, she bow to fetch water, shivering in fear because somehow the weather suddenly changed as it was almost Magrib prayer time, after fetching the water and as if someone called her, she turned and look at her side.
She saw something or rather someone laying by the river and at first she was scared at the moment but after mustering some courage, chanting some prayers, she walked towards the person. "It's a human" she whispered, but she was scared seeing that he was unconscious, with shivering hand she poked him but to no avail, by mere looking he is in need of help, to think of it is so risky of her because deep down she knows Inna would not hesitate to kill her, that thought alone frightens her.
She didn't move an inch from where she stood, Suddenly, just an idea popped into her head, " Please wake up before the villagers come, and they won't hesitate to kill you" she whispered. With shivering hands, she placed it on his chest and began to press it, maybe he would wake up, gradually after a while he started coughing and vomiting the water, mere looking at him, he looks so weak and pale.
"Please, you have to get up, I don't want them to meet us here, they will kill you" she said with tears in her eyes, slowly and he flickered his eyes not strong enough to open them completely.
She was still contemplating on how to help him, but she was scared of Inna, and all of a sudden she decided to finally help him, she held him and he managed to stand on his feet and since he's weak, he mostly relied on her help, Her heart praying that she should not came in contact with a a familiar face.
From Amrita's home to the river bank is not far, so on her way back home their weren't people due to Magrib prayer, all were at the mosque, she entered the house and luckily, Inna wasn't back home already, so she walked straight to her room which is close to the main entrance.
She lay him down carefully on the mat that was laying in the room , she touched his head and it felt hot, sensing this she knows he is coming down with a fever. "This white man is coming down with a fever but don't worry I will get you some medicines by tomorrow morning" she talked to herself seeing he was fast asleep.
Using the opportunity she looked at him carefully trying to study him, Masha Allah he is handsome, fair in complexion from mere looking he was from the city because his outfit didn't match one of their own here, his silky hair black yet curled, his face adorned with side buns, his full cherry lips, with a tone and chiseled jawline making him he perfect dream man of any young lady.
The call of her name brought her back from her day dream, "Amrita where are you?" a voice of a lady coming outside the room, From God we came and to him we shall return she said placing her hand over her chest due to how her heart was beating very fast, Inna is back.
