EPISODE 5

The ringing of my phone brought me up and I quickly picked it.

” Hey girly!” Responded Kegan immediately I picked the call.

” Yes man! What’s up?” I sighed placing the dishes in the sink.

” What time are you coming?” He asked

” Coming?” I inquired surprised.

” Yes coming, don’t tell me you have forgotten today is my birthday and am having a party this evening! ” He shouted obviously disappointed I had forgotten.

” I was just kidding silly, how can l forget ” I lied thrusting my finger in my hair.
” Am coming definitely” l added looking down at Benjamin and thinking of how I was going to be doing it. Leaving him alone in the house didn’t seem a good idea and now that I thought of it. It was like I was going to be my own prisoner.

My movements would be affected. The thought of taking him to Chainama came, but then what was I going to tell them?. I hardly knew him and the fact that I just kidnapped him worsened the situation.

” Oh my God! ” I sighed sitting down after cutting Kegan’s call. I had to find a solution to that problem.

” Yes!” I exclaimed recalling I had an old friend working at Chainama hospital . I had to give it a short even if we were not in good terms, she was my only hope of helping my Benjamin.

I looked at the watch once again, ” if I can go now, then pass through Manda Hill to get Kegan a gift, then I would make it back in time to prepare for the party” I talked to myself and started acting by walking to my room and grabbing my hand bag.

I walked to the door and stopped recalling I had to make sure Benjamin was okey when he works up.

I gave him another dose of sedutive, which I knew would take almost 3 hours to ware off. I placed the Nshima I left in the pot on the table besides him and walked out ensuring the door was locked.

” What a surprise!” Exclaimed Hellen upon seeing me.

” Yeah I know right? It’s been years my dear, how are You?” I acted up trying to pretend she was a good friend of mine.

” How is the man you grabbed from me?” She asked sarcastically. The main reason we were not in good pages. The girl couldn’t get over the fact that Daniel choose me over her years back. We were friends from high school but after Daniel flirt a bit with her he settled for me and she was mad.

” Well, you were saved the heart ach my friend, Daniel is a jerk I shouldn’t have agreed to his proposal years ago” I shrugged trying to act cool with her sarcasm.

She laughed loudly making me loose my patience, but I needed her so I played a fool.

” Anyway, so what made you recall I still exist?” She made a face taking in my attire. I knew Hellen always hated my curves and my ability to blend some clothe colours, which was a challenge for her even after getting herself a rich husband, who showered her with cash. My simplicity, and uniqueness couldn’t match up her expensive but unmatched choices.

” Well, I missed you and I realise it has been long, besides why fight over that Daniel when we both have moved on right?” I giggled looking at...
