How Jafar was going to rescue me from the shit I put myself was beyond comprehension. Maybe I should have just allowed that stupid Volvo follow me around. Thoughts of Timi filtered into my brain. I wondered if I wouldn't see him again, I wondered if I wouldn't be able to run my fingers through his hair as he slept, hold him again. I thought about Abayomi, he would have been worried shitless now. Toun sat upright on the chair she was strapped on, if you didn't look clearly, you would think she was conducting an interview. I was beginning to think there was something more to this SUG than met the eyes.
Skanty brought oatmeal for us at lunch, I had decided his brain also had melanin problem but I kept that to myself. He came in shirtless, never seen an albino with six-packs before, he had a good physique.
Skanty: No news from your people yet
Me: You will hear from them soon
Skanty: we cant keep feeding you guys here o, make una answer us fast
Toun: you are not a student of our school
Skanty: yes na
Toun: which school?
Skanty: don't bother yourself with that..
He said this exposing those horrible teeth.
I must have slept off because I woke up to the sound of a car. I so hoped it was the police or somebody that came for us. If I was free again, I was going to look for Timi and tell him how I felt. I loved Timi. The silence that came afterwards was very depressing. It must have been one of them.
Toun: you thought someone had come for us?
Me: yes
Toun: me too
I noticed she was trying to stay calm, but tears were flowing down her face.
Toun: I have to call Abayomi myself, he has to step-down
Me: I just nodded
I wondered what the guarantee was that they wouldn't do away with us even if Abayomi stepped down. I heard somewhere that if Kidnappers didn't cover their faces when you are kidnapped then its most likely that you will be killed.
Me: Toun I love you.
Toun: I love you too
This time it was Skanty's voice that woke us up. He came in with the other guys that kidnapped us. They swept the dirts around us, the stench of the urine was reduced by the water they poured on it. It was getting dark, I wanted to ask why they were cleaning the area up, but I kept quiet. I looked at Toun, wanted to remind her about speaking to Abayomi, but she was asleep.
Then the most remarkable thing happened after they finished cleaning. A familiar person walked into the compartment.
Jafar: time to go home ladies…
I was so happy, I wanted to run and hug him but I realized I was strapped.
Toun had problems walking, after being in sitting position all that time. Jafar carried her, her head rested on his chest as he led us out of the uncompleted building.
Jafar: I brought fried chicken and Krest
I didn't answer him, I had a couple of questions to ask him but I didn't. like how did he find us?
Instead I looked for his hands with mine, and held on to it as we walked out. Skanty looked at us with a smile, I was sure our nakedness was in his head.
Toun: thank you Abayomi…
She muttered with eyes closed.. I wanted to correct her that it wasn't her Abayomi that was carrying her. It was My Jafar.
My Jafar.
