(Saturday the 25th of September)
Muhammad was a disappointment as he did not show up, I mean what makes a man thinks he can keep a woman waiting.
I guess he was a screw up but thank God that there was no one in this house, who even knows if it's not his.
Today has been really long and stressful at the same time, I mean we both could not sleep, and there was nothing in the house for us to snack on, we we're both scared of the guards finding us, but I wondered why they did not follow us from the house, they just stood there and where firing arms at us, maybe they thought we we're dead or something, I still don't understand.
Well I wish Maryam we're heard she would have made things better for me, I am sure she would have been the only good thing around all this madness, come to think of it divine is dead, that could have been anyone of us, it could have been me, does it mean that's how my story will end with a man telling my stories point of view, but it will be his anyways.
"Knock knock"
The sound came from outside the house, and we could tell it was this house there were knocking at, but fear and anxiety did not allow us to answer, we both came out of the main building we were now standing in front of the gate, God who could this be.
We we're both standing there, and he tried to open the door using the password which he did, he pushes the door slowly and my heart stopped at the thought of him being my parents, or maybe Muhammad works for my parents that's why he is keeping us waiting because he wants them to come and kill us, no wonder he is so close to that which that calls the self a boss.
He pushed the door slowly until it was large enough for his body to pass through, "Haaaa" I said giving a sign of relive as I know he was our side now.
"Hello?.... Hello?... Hello? " He said.
"Where is your friend? "I asked at the poor thing that looks tired and stressed.
"Here I will be back later"
"Okay, so where is mamma? " I still insisted in knowing where my baby was.
"I will be back soon, besides what happened? " It's a very long story, that I am not sure whether you want to hear.
"I will be back soon, every thing you have packed it"
"Why? " I asked.
"Well you gyes are traveling to Lagos, to stay with his parents"
"Oh, okay are you coming with us?"
"No" he said as he stretched his hands for me to collet the leather bags that he was carrying there were three of these bags, two were cloths the other was food, I grabbed the bags from his hands as he turned back and walked away living me with this wired since of feeling that was complex and simple at the same time.
We went inside to pack the money that we kept in the bag, the things in the bags we're not much, so we decided to throw away any sign of identification, we're already done with mom and dads ATM card as we transferred money from it using Stella's POS wow, and look how handy it came.
We ate and took our bath, and then we changed to the cloth they gave us, normally I would rap the avail around my head, but today I wore a cap and rapped the avail around my neck, the key was to do the unexpected not to get caught.
It took me time to get use to tying and re_wrapping my veil over and over since I do not want to dress like my usual self today, well the truth is we also had to dress comfortable which was not as bad as It seems, we had to look causal and also be comfortable as we needed the comfort in case we may need to fight some bad gyes in suits and stuffs, well you never can tell, but I don't think we are ready for that yet.
But I can fell the war vibe passing through my veins just imagine *me fighting in a beach, with my heart flying at any direction in which the wind wanted it to fly, I would be kicking ass with my swords and shield, God I look good in this cloth that looks small and slim fitted, I will just be..... * wait I think that's wonder woman.
Well it was not long till musa came back with two flight tickets, he gave them to us with some passports I don't know how things work in the real word as I have travelled by air before but from movies and stuffs isn't this illegal?, well I couldn't ask anyone and I guess plain would be five times faster than a car.
"Okay, so where are we going to meet with him? " I asked as I wanted to see my baby really soon.
"Well you gyes will be walking on your own from the airport until you get in the plain that's when you will leave"
"Okay"
I was so excited how real this is, like we get to plat spy in a Nigerian movie, and I know that it is really boring to watch a spy movie, but I promise you guys I would make it interesting, please tell me this is real and if it not don't bother waking me, I hope the next thing that will happen is the sky opening and someone comes down to tell me that I am a lost child of Zeus, or something even better, I am Zeus but this time I will be an African Zeus, maybe my crown would be a lion head to show strength and power.
"Habiba, let's go" he said
"The time was past five, and I have only eaten once, I have not yet prayed, and you want me to go where exactly?" I asked.
"Let's go the flight takes off by wight in the knight so please let's go" he said
"Fine" as long as I get to see my baby I guess I will be good then
We left the house with a cab and there was no change in anything there was nothing, mom and dad did not act as if anything happened to me, they acted as if nothing had just happened, I am sure this was how they acted when I was sick and captured NY those beasts.
"We left the house with a cab, we passed mom and dads house, and it looked as if nothing happened in the house, it was so sad that they chose to leave me, and forget about me so easy" I said out loud as every one was looking quite and also sad at the same time
Time flew by really fast as we could not tell the time when we reached the airport, Or maybe I was the only one that did not pay attention to the trip.
The rest was pretty easy as we boarded the plain and departed for Lagos, the funny part was that i was now an Offical orphan, I am now a pantless child, I am now an empty whole in the universe that needs to be filled, I was now a statistic been added to homeless children and I was not happy.
But according to mom I will soon be responsible for my self, I will still be eighteen very soon, I will soon be an adult and all will be a matter of time before I realize that I need help, I need to be found by a greater force...... Bla bla bla.
I was just being emotional right now cos it has been a stressful journey, I mean when did my life became a fairy tale?, when?.
"Hi" he said as he adjusted his seat
"Hmm" I was still confused and scared at the same time, but i guess I was fine.
"Habia, it looks like you are losing touch of reality" he said
"Hmm, what?" I asked looking at him this time
"Maybe you need to rest"
"Hmm" I said as I really was in need of a good Night sleep
I slept like a six-year-old girl I was tired and stressed out, I guess this was the best way for me to relieve my self off stress.
It was not u till six o'clock in the morning before we landed at the Lagos stare airport, it was a bit stressful as all the passengers joined me in my sleep even those that did not want to, they still joined me.
"Haaaa" I said as i stretched my hands forward, God my breath stinks
I was yawning and screaming at the same time, thank God these people were still sleeping, the time was now 6:02am and the plain just landed they connected the stairs to the plain, and the flight attendants started waking people up, luckily I was, and so I decided to wake hammy, and *shit* he is awake, he has been the whole time, and he was looking at me, I felt so uncomfortable and stressed, wait he saw me check my breathe, wait he saw me sleep *shit, shit, shit* I slot like a lost dog, I opened my mouth which allowed saliva to come out of it, my jaw line was filled with saliva which was dried and sticky.
I turned back and saw Stella sleeping so innocent and calm, she was like an angle and me, I was sleeping like a nightmare, I tapped her both foot and immediately she woke up.
"What?" she said
"Lets go" I answered even if I was not sure of where we were going i defiantly know that we can not stay in this plane forever.
We went down the plain and entered the airport, we were already with our goods, so it was fast for us, we went out of the airport and there was a car waiting in front of the port that was not a taxi, he walked towards that direction and we both followed.
"Salam" he greeted a woman that was standing in front of the drivers door
"My baby" she said
*Sorry miss but he has a mom already, he has me*.
"Good morning ma" I and Stella both said in chorus
"How are you?" the woman in the driver's seat asked
"Fine ma" I answered as we entered the car
She drove us down to a house that was in an estate it was a big and beautiful house, it was a Manson, this house was three times bigger than my parents house.
