"Clara, Clara, Clara", shouted the mother, "how many times did I call you? "Three times mother!" responded Clara. "I want you to go in search of your sisters, rumours have it that they have gone astray, they have left the way they have been trained and trailed the enemies' trap", the mother continued. "My God will guide you and put light on your way so as to arrive safely.

Clara's mum said so many things to her and prayed that she'd go safely. In little Clara's head who has never left the village for Lagos before kept wondering, " where will I find my sisters, I don't even have an address and I don't even know where to see them but I can't tell my mother because she's looking up to me to help clear the mess and the rumours that are flying here and there about them.

Clara's aunt, Ije came home and had an altercation with her mother and the least she could think of is to scorn her of her daughters lifestyles and it's consequences.

Uncle Robin and wife agreed to to take Clara to the Urban for her to redeem her WAEC papers which she had a pass in English and a fail in Mathematics. Some other cousin and Clara's dad rejected the idea. But due to the little secret between mother and daughter, she determined to go ahead to assist her older siblings to find their way back home.

Night bus was what was best for the sojourn... Ekeledirichukwu motors, were attachment ticket was bought for Clara and the other house maid to the uncle. Left by 7:30pm to arrive at Maza Maza bus stop in Festac area of Lagos. Considering being a traveller to the city hub for once in her life, Clara was excited holding on her rafter leather bag.
