SLEEVELESS Episose 6



"I am sorry, I should have told you this since we met but I don't know how you are going to react to it" Tina said calmly.

Dele was looking lost as he was breathing heavily from the urgent call that made him rush down to the house.

"Princess was kidnapped while coming home for the mid term holiday" Tina's mother interrupted.

The call was put across by the neighbour's so that Dele can come around to see whatever he can do to help.

"But who is Princess? I... " Dele stammered in confusion as he pressed to know who Princess was.
He leaned on the wall checking his time and it was already few minutes from 2:00am.

"I'm sorry dear, Princes is our little baby" Tina cut in breaking the silence in the room.

"Wait, wait a minute, you have a baby sister that I don't know of? Or I'm not getting what's going on here" Dele tried to calm down and continued asking further question to know what the police said after they were informed.

"They asked us to come as early as 6:30am to the station to come and file an official report so as to start the search and investigation"  Tina's dad, as he joined the conversation from the dining where he was formerly seated.

"It's late already Bamidele and the gate to your estate would have been locked since its past 12. Just stay over and we can get to the station together tomorrow" Tina's mom suggested.

Bamidele was shown the way to the visitors room but every time that he tried to close his eyes, he couldn't figure out who Princess was and the more he tried, the more headache it resulted to.

The night became longer as no one was sleeping deeply as they checked the time at different intervals so as to catch up with the meeting with the police.

"Knock, knock" Tina had said as the time was already 6:00am.

Bamidele quickly moved the blanket away and wore his palm slippers to walk down to the door.

"Good morning, dear, trust you slept well?" Tina asked as they both joined the family at the living room.

"Mom lead us in short prayer and let's set out to meet with the police" Tina's dad had said and the prayer was said briefly.

Few minutes after 6, they all set out as the nearest police station to the house was like 20 minutes drive away. Since the day had not fully formed, the cars moving were few compared to that of the day.

Twenty Minutes later, they all arrived at the police station. They exchanged pleasantries and in no time, they moved to the matter that brought them down there.

"But did you try calling the driver or someone to confirm their move?" One of the officers asked them.

"We tried calling the school and they said they left since 2PM but when we call the drivers number, it has not been going through" Tina's mom said.

Everyone looked so worried and since the car that was kidnapped was for a family friend whose child too was in the car. The car belong to Mr James Aminu who happens to be Tina's Dad best friend.

In the process of filing the report, Mr Aminu also came in sad and confused as no one could place where exactly their children could be at the moment.

"Its a Nissan Primera green colour car" Mr Aminu tried to describe the car to the police and as well as what his driver looked like.

The police assured them that the best would be done to make sure they help find their children.

"Let's also visit the Radio/TV station to tell them to help us announce four missing children in a car and a driver" Bamidele suggested.

All of this had been going on for almost 3 hours, no one even thought about food. How to get those children back home was all that was on everyone's mind.

An hour later, a call came through.

"Hello, who am I on to?" Mr Aminu holding the phone firmly to his ears.

Who called? What happened?

SLEEVELESS Episode 5


"What's going on right now?" Justina asked, facing her mom.

"Mom, what is it that I don’t know?" she asked curiously while Bamidele was standing confused as he was looking at everyone's face.

"So this is the Dele, Dele you have been talking about all this while Tina?" the mother asked.

"Yes, mommy but what's going on?" she was getting more confused.

Justina's mother who happened to be a renowned businesswoman in town, very inquisitive, fair and plump size woman with a birth mark close around her neck that complemented her beauty.

On the other hand, Mr Oke, Justina's dad was a Reverend of the church after he retired as a Director in a consultancy firm.

The mother sat them all down and served them food that evening. She left everyone with the suspense of what had happened or how she might have met Bamidele before.

After dinner that night, it was already past 8 and Bamidele's place was like an hour and thirty minutes.

"Help me with this plates to the kitchen" Tina mother requested.

As they both walked down to the kitchen, Justina's dad engaged Bamidele in a man to man conversation while the mother in the kitchen was also doing same.

"Justina my darling, you cant marry that boy out there" mother said as confusion was all written over Tina's face.

"But...but mom why? What are you not telling me?" She pleaded as the mother insist.

The conversation was interrupted by the shout from the dinning as Tina's dad called them out to inform them that it was getting late and Dele had to get going.

"Mama Tina, where are you ooo?"

Justina and her mother walked down to the dining to join her dad and Bamidele. The mother kept smiling so her displeasure won't be seen on her face.

"Thanks for coming, it is really nice having you around" Justina mother said as they all stand to walk Bamidele down to where he parked his car.

"Goodnight, my son, have a nice night" Tina's dad said as they all stand and waved Dele as he drove out of the compound.

Everything that had happened that night kept ringing in Bamidele's mind. So many "how's" and "why's".

Weeks later, everyone was still silent about the 'what' behind Tina not marrying Bamidele even though Tina did not discuss it with Bamidele after the visit.

Days rolled by, the intimacy and closeness between the duo was so unbreakable that everyone in office teased them. At a point, the immediate supervisor said "this two should get the award of best couples" and everyone laughed about it.

One of the weekends, Bamidele got home and retired to his bed, minutes later, a call came in and he quickly sat up from his bed to listen keenly to what the person had to say.

"Yes, I can hear you clearly... yes I am Bamidele Tomori" he looked more confused but trying to be calm.

"Kidnapped? By who? when did that happened? He check his time and he realised it was already past 11.

"I will come, I am coming right away" he rushed down to his car and zoomed off.

"Bukola, my dear" she runs to her as they both greeted each other, the noise from the entrance got into Bamidele's in the room.

"So mom, this is how you always sneak to enjoy in your own son's house leaving your husband alone at home abi" she teased her mother as they both walked down to the dining room.

In the middle of their conversation, Bamidele walked down to the living room to join his mother and her sister.

"Baby Sis, sorry that I couldn't pick your calls yesterday, a lot happened altogether" he said, looking all tired as he speaks to his sister.

"Well, I have made us breakfast even though I do not know your sister will meet us here today" mama beamed as they all walk down to the dining room.

It was from one gist to another and before they knew it, the morning has moved down to evening time.

"Wow, it's already past 4 and I almost forgot that I have laundry to do" Bamidele said as he walked down to the laundry room.

The weekend happened faster than the usual having the family around to keep Bamidele's company.

Days rolled by and it had been two weeks that mama had left as well as Bukola who only stayed for Saturday and Sunday before going back to her place.

After a few deliberation, a new staff was introduced and everyone welcomed the new staff with rounds of applause while the new staff stand to introduce herself.

"I am Justina Oke and I will be assisting the Head of Marketing Department" she said as everyone exchanged pleasantries.

Justina was a light skinned young lady with dimple, her long hair was out of this world with her nerd glasses.

Miss Justina's office is adjacent to that of Bamidele and they got to connect faster than any other person in the company.

Justina was already counting days and days turning weeks into months as the unexplainable friendship was growing between Justina and Bamidele.

One of the afternoon, his two friends called to see him by the coming weekend to catch up with so many gist.

The weekend was around the corner and he wasn't sure of his availability to his friend as his friendship with Justina had gone to the next level.

"Hello guys, can we make the meeting 7 instead of 8 because I have another meeting by 8:pm and I won't want to disappoint" was what he was saying on the phone to his friends that noon.

It was weekend already and Bamidele finally met with his friends after skipping about 5 meetings already.

"Guy, tell us wetin dey sup na" Femi had said but before he could round up his question Olu walked in with 3 cups and a drink in his hand.

"Alaye, wetin dey sele (what's going on)?, you are just scarce" Olu had said.

Bamidele apologise for been unavailable for the past few weekends now, he also added to the gist by telling them about his interest in the new staff at their work place.

"Guys, I'm going to be meeting with her family next week. She invited me over for a dinner" Bamidele said with smile on his face.

"Oshey baba mi (well done)"  Olu shouted while Femi raised his cup up and request them to do the same as they made a toast to Bamidele new found love.

The meeting ended that day and they all departed to their separate ways.

Finally, the day was here to meet with the family of Justina. Justina been the only child made her to be over pampered and over cared for.

SLEEVELESS Episode 3



"Mom, go ahead I'm listening to you" he said as mama took a sip from her drink.

"Bamidele, you know you are my only son and I want the best for you. As you're enjoying my meal tonight, it could have been your wife doing this for you"

He was already tired of hearing all things in line with girls. He couldn't end the conversation like he had always done on phone calls.

Mama brought out her small Nokia android phone leaving Bamidele wondering what mama was up to.

"Mom, do you want to call anyone by this time of the night?" he said as he pointed to the watch on the wall to remind mama that the time was few minutes past 11pm.

Bamidele had been listening, but not with full attention as he was eating on the other hand. He was looking all tired already and it was like he should get a remote and fast forward whatever was left mama want to say.

"Come let me show you the list" she said will all concern written on her face but Bamidele on the other hand was left in awe as mama continued.

"I have the list of beautiful girls from our area. Some from the church and others from our street" She adjusted her glasses and drew her chair even more closer.

"My son, Juliana is 27 and single, young and vibrant while Yomade is tall and light skinned" she teased him as she said further "I know you like omo pupa (fair girls)."

Mama kept on mentioning and mentioning names till the time it had gotten to the height of what he couldn't take.

He furiously hit his hand on the dining table as his face were all red due to the stress from the day and also to the unexpected list mama is talking about.

"Mom! I have to go and sleep now, I am extremely tired". He said as he walked away talking.

"Also mama, please don't wake me up until it's 11am because I need to sleep well. Goodnight mom"

Mama claps her hands in surprise of how her son had been sounding like he wasn't interested in talking about any girls at home.

Mama went to her room that night and as usual, mama was the kind of woman that doesn't joke with prayer. Prayer had never failed her and she know the God she was serving.

On mama's phone, she had different prayer alarm for different time. She hasn't slept for 2 hours when her phone alarm started ringing, immediately she picked it up, she already knew what it means.

Meanwhile, any time that mama came around with her once in a blue moon visit, she was always lodged in the second room as Bamidele's house was a 2 bedroom boy's quarters.

The room is been divided by toilet, bathroom and laundry room. The rooms were not too far from each other enough for anyone to talk in the other room and it could be as loud as the person was talking inside that same room.

It was 2am already and mama knelt down by her bedside, tying her wrapper to her chest having a white camisole underneath.

She started praying and the pace of the prayer was going from low to high at a certain point that Bamidele on the other side couldn't help but cover his head with the pillow.

Bamidele was forced to walk down to mama's room to knock and open her door but as at that time, mama was almost rounding up her prayer.

"Whoever is saying my son will not marry, let them die by fire! die die die..." mama was sweating profusely.

"Thank you Lord for promising not to shame me. I will forever praise you Lord" mama rounding up as she switch to singing different Yoruba praise song.

"Bamidele, o sun ni (you are not sleeping)?." She asked in surprise as she found her son in her bedroom.

"Mom, how will I? how will I sleep when you have killed all your village people and those who doesn't want you to see grandchildren by fire?" Bamidele said with all displeasure written all over his face.


"Well, well, If we can't have a peaceful physical conversation about why you are still yet to talk about anyone, I said we should take it a bit spiritual ni"

Bamidele wasn't totally ready for all this and he was beginning to think on how to start asking mama when she was going back but he kept his cool as he walked back to his room to continue his sleep.

Night fading off as it was getting bright outside already. Mama checked her phone time as the phone backlight flash through her dimmed eyes.

"Ah, 7am already. Let me go find something to cook. I'm hungry already"

Mama got to the kitchen and found out that there is almost nothing at home. No soup left, no stew as well. She was not totally unfamiliar with the street.

Mama rushed out to get some ingredients and other stuff around making soup and stew that will at least take Bamidele for the week.

Some minutes later, mama got back home, washed the dishes and set everywhere right.

The aroma from the kitchen was so catchy and can leave anyone wanting and salivating whatever been cooked in the building.

Mama was rounding up and thinking of how to go wake Bamidele up as the time now is past 10.

Before mama could move from kitchen down to the dining, she heard a knock on the door.

"Who's there?" Mama curiously asked but a part of mama was thinking it could be the neighbor's or any other random person that love the aroma of her food.

"Who's there, I am coming" mama said.

As she opened the door, she couldn't believe her eyes.

What did mama see?
Who is there?

SLEEVELESS Episode 2



The sight got all blurry and focus weren't clear as flash light from both side of the road were pointing to him to stop.

As he was getting closer, the pace in which he was driving was getting slower. He thought to himself that why will the police officers be operating this late inside the rain.

"Young man, stop this car" a tall guy with a deep bass voice said and immediately, he commanded Bamidele to roll down the window. Bamidele did but trying to clear his curiosity and asked immediately "How may I help you sir?"

The man laughed sarcastically placing his hand on the car saying "what if you are the one that needs our help?"

This left Bamidele more confused as the man kept laughing, Bamidele's heart beat was increasing like someone trying to mix a beat in mind.

"In what sense sir?" Bamidele asked but to his uttermost surprise, the man said to him that they meant no harm.

"We got a call some minutes ago that the bridge that is leading to Road 3 has been damaged, that's why we were instructed by oga to come and stand here to direct people" he smiled as he asked Bamidele to go and drive gently.

Bamidele who was nervous already, sighed heavily as he drove away but all through the time he was with the officers, his phone had been ringing but he didn't know.

Minutes later, he arrived at his apartment just to find his mother waiting and sitting at the gate of his house.

"Mama B" as he fondly call his mother "you didn't even tell me you were coming over" he said as he was closing the car door, having his suit laid across his other hand and his tie sagging down on his shirt.

"So I have to take permission before coming to see my own son" Mama replied raising her eye brow.

Bamidele assisted Mama who was looking all tired and fagged out in her Ankara skirt and blouse and her small handy leather bag.

"Mum, but how long have you been waiting outside and why didn't you call me so to hasten my coming home?" Bamidele said out of concern but mama shoved it all out by letting him know she's tired and she needs to rest first.

As tired as mama was, she had gone to the kitchen to prepare rice so that she can eat and Bamidele as well.

Bamidele had the chance to check his phone and realised mama had called for about 7 times but he missed her calls.

He dropped his phone and went straight to shower as well as freshen up. The drama that happened during the day kept ringing and playing in his head.

"Bamidele, come down oo! Your food is going to get cold" mama shouted.

Few minutes later,  Bamidele joined mama at the dining table as they started mother to son gist.

"Mom, this your food is just so delicious, that's why dad keep looking so fresh and young" he teased his mom but mama wasn't even ready for the whining because what she had on her mind was far way deeper than that.

"Bamidele my son, I have something very important to discuss with you"

What did mama want to say?

"Father Lord, I commit Bamidele's life to your able hands, let him bring me home his wife as I'm growing old and those that are not even up to me are been called grandma, grandma..." Mama Bamidele was praying that morning before she was interrupted by her husband.

"In Jesus name we pray... It is few minutes past 3:00 am and you haven't slept since. If it is about Bamidele, when the time is right, he will bring someone" Baba Bamidele said calmly.

Mr and Mrs Tomori, the couple whose marriage was worth emulating celebrated their 37th wedding anniversary with their two children 2 weeks back. Bamidele Tomori and Bukola Tomori had been the blessing over their marriage.

Bamidele Tomori, a tall dark and handsome guy with pink lips that attracts every lady. He had built up himself so much that every shirt and suit he puts on always fits him like he was made for the cloth or rather, the clothes was made for him. He always had his nice hair on low cut and well carved beards.

Bamidele who was now 36 and still single was the Managing Director of a renowned Company in the state and he assumed the position ever since he returned from Canada about 3 years ago.

On the other hand, Bukola his sister who is an extreme extrovert, slim and curvy with her afro parked hair was also a senior staff in a Multimedia company in the state. Even though the age gap between them was not too much as she just clocked 32 some months ago.

The song of "when will I have my own grand child" had been on repeat on Mrs Tomori's lips so much that everyone was tired of hearing that.

One of the nights, Mrs Tomori put a call through to Bamidele and the call almost ended with a big fight.

"Hello, are you listening to me?" Mrs Bamidele asked as she paced up and down in her room.

"Mom, I can hear you and please make the call snappy because I had a long tiring day at work" Bamidele said calmly.

"Bamidele, Bamidele, Bamidele! How many times did I call you? See, omo mi (my child) your dad and I are not getting any younger, when do you want to introduce us to your fiance? She asked with a sad face but the reply she got that night almost gave her a sleepless night

"See mommy, I've had enough of all this bring your fiance home, I want to have my grand child. Mom, I wont deceive you, most of those girls around only want my money and I haven't seen any one I love. I'm sorry mom, let this be the last time you will disturb me over this matter, you are not letting me concentrate, goodnight mom" he ended the call as tears almost strolled down Mrs Tomori's face.

Weekend came faster than the usual that week and it was Friday hangout with Bamidele and his friends. There is this popular pepper soup joint down the road where Bamidele and his 2 other friends do meet and talk on Friday evenings.

"My guy, how far now? See how you look all stressed out, what's up na?" Olu Johnson, one of Bamidele friends said out of curiosity.

"I just have so many things going on lately, I can't even think straight" Bamidele said worryingly but before he could conclude what he was saying, Femi Akande interrupted with his usual shout.

"My people, my people, twale for my goons" everyone laughed as Femi was the most jovial out of the three jolly friends and there was no dull moment with him.

"Won’t you guys order and let's gist about our week as we always do" Olu said and ordered for pepper soup and drinks.

"Guys, I'm worried and tired about how momsy is pressuring me about bringing home someone" Bamidele complained as he gulped his drink.

"You know say, time no dey baba mi. You too should do quick and at least mention one girl name to calm her down" Femi suggested but Olu kicked against that saying "don't give mama false hope abeg, let them know you are working on it and very soon you will bring home someone"

They talked all night till it was past 9pm and everyone went their separate homes.

As Bamidele was driving home that evening, it started drizzling and his sight were blurry and focus was getting dimmed.

"Where are you going from here?" Lois asked as she was also ready to leave for her place. Although, Lois' house was about 20 minutes down the road.

With tears in Josh eyes, he narrated that he had no place to sleep or even go from here. "Me meeting you, is just God's way of reminding me that He loves me so much because I didn't even know where to go or hide or even what to do" he explained.

Lois paused for a minute and later suggested to let them walk down to her house together.

Twenty minutes later, they had gotten home. Lois narrated a few of what Josh had told her to her parents. They took him in as their own child as Lois is their only child.

After five years, Josh had begun his internship since it was a moment of practical experience in his field.

One of the noon at the hospital, he noticed a patient that was rushed in. He tried to follow up and to his uttermost surprise, it was his father.

He had not seen him for close to 7 years. And seeing him that afternoon, in that physical state had gotten him very emotional.

His father was being treated everyday and was responding to treatment.

"Good afternoon, sir" he greeted his father one afternoon but his father couldn't even recognize him. Josh went ahead to introduce himself.

He had thought seeing his father was very emotional but seeing how his father pleaded for forgiveness was even more emotional.

Josh told his father that if God could forgive him, then he also could forgive him. Josh led his father to Christ that same day.

The father was fully recovered and they promised to discharge him the day after. During the father to son discussion was when Josephine and Joan walked into the room.

Josephine apologized and it was another moment of reunion and mixed feelings. Joan couldn't even remember she had a brother.

They all got back together, it was a moment of joy and excitement for everyone.

They all prayed, praise God and ate. At the middle of the meal, Lois' dad, Mr Johnson stood up to make a toast.

He further said that there was an announcement he had to make. Everywhere became silent as Mr Johnson gave his speech.

"I am glad for moment like this when we have  overflowing testimony just as the theme of our convention has said. We are happy that Mr Alarape is back to his feet and I want to tell you that my family and I are relocating to the US this weekend. Henceforth, this house belong to Josh and the family. Lastly, I will sponsor Josh till the end of his medical schools" he said as everyone clapped and hugged themselves.

Josh couldn't control his tears that evening and he said to himself
"I was a happy child with many sorrows but God has wiped my tears away and turn my sadness to joy"

The stereo started playing songs as everyone got busy with their food and merriment.

HAPPY CHILD (with many sorrows)

Episode 9.

"Yeparipa!! How did you get here" Jacob the rewire guy exclaimed in his slangy Yoruba accent.


"Sir, I need help, don't let the driver know that I sneaked out through this means" Josh pleaded.

The driver had gone to pee on the other side of the fence so the rewire helped him to hide till he was done repairing the Jeep.

"Oga Saburi, I have finished it oh" He said as he handed the car keys over to Saburi.

Saburi drove back to the compound after two hours of staying at the rewire's workshop.

Madam had been looking everywhere for Josh but she couldn't find him. She walked round the compound as Saburi entered with the jeep

"Saburi, where is Josh? Where is he?" she furiously asked, but no one could really answer since no one saw him leave.

That was how Josh escaped from madam Arowosafe and her sexual demands.

Josh looked very pale and tired because of his hiding from one place to another. One day, he mistakenly hit a young lady and she almost fell.

"I am sorry, I am very so..." Josh tried to apologized as he look closely, it was Lois.

"Lois" he said and Lois also called him by name "Josh"

Lois was the one always sitting behind him in their primary school. Lois was a lady brought up in a Christian home and she never joked with the things of God.

"Where are you heading to?" they both asked out of curiosity. "You go first" Josh had requested. She told him that she was going to the church for bible study and asked where Josh was heading to.

Josh couldn't even start the story of how he had been living his life from the last time they saw and now that they met again.

Lois interrupted his thought by reminding him of his mother's death. "I didn't get to be close enough to you back then to greet you about the loss of your mom, I'm really sorry" He thanked her as they kept on walking to the church.

"We are almost at the church" Lois said and then noticed how unkempt and tired Josh was looking.

Josh was so hungry that he wished he could just turn stone to bread because the last meal he had was puff puff and he had even begged for it from the seller in the morning along with sachet water.

Since Josh had no place to go, he decided to follow her down to the church.

The Bible study lasted for about an hour and thirty minutes. An altar call was made that evening and Josh and some others stepped out to pray their way through.

"Thank you Jesus, thank you Lord" Josh had said on his knees. Everyone around him was happy as they saw him shout 'thank you Jesus' repeatedly.

"Congrats Josh, you are now born again and saved from your life of sin" Lois had said with so much joy written over her face.

It was a total turnaround for Josh as he felt the joy that he had never experienced before.

"But where do I go from here?" This was the question that kept running through Josh's mind as people were finding their way out of the Church that evening.

Where will Josh go to?

HAPPY CHILD with many sorrows

Story by O'nezer
Episode 8.

"Good morning young man" the round shaped, dark woman with a tiny voice said.

He hurriedly replied "Good morning ma.Good morning"

"You are welcome here, come inside and let's have a chat" she beckoned while she asked every other persons around there to stay outside.

The house was a very big one. In his whole touring round the street, he hadn't seen a house that had such a beautiful structure.

If not careful, a stranger could easily get lost in the house, but he was calm to listen to what the madam had to say.

Josh was shown around, he was introduced to other people in the compound and over the time, he got used to the building and the way they behave around there.

"Madam" was how they always addressed her. So, Josh didn't know her real name.

Madam Arowosafe was a classic woman with so much wealth, properties and shares.
 She was in her mid 30 but her baby face made her look even 25.
 No one really knew her source of wealth but there was rarely anyone who entered the house to work there that ends up leaving.

They would be getting paid but madam won't let them meet with their family or anyone else.

Then one evening, Madam sent for Josh.
"At least, you've worked here for about 6 months right?" She asked to be sure but Josh replied that 'it has been 8 months that I got here"

Madam was impressed with his sharp memory and she told him that whenever she was impressed, she always compensate every of her staff. It was more like staff bonus that comes once in a while.

Josh was excited about the news but he was still curious to know what the madam was up to.

Madam tried to lead Josh to the room after serving him juice. He was so tipsy and not in his total consciousness.

One thing led to another and before Josh could say Jack Robinson, madam had sex with him. He woke up the following morning seeing a letter on the bed which stated "whatever goes down here must stay here, say it out and die"

He wanted to shout but he lost his voice, he was speechless and he knew that there was fire on the mountain.

The subsequent months were sex-filled for Josh and Madam. Surprisingly, the madam was getting fresh, Josh was getting skinny even though he was feeding well

One afternoon, Josh had thought of how he could just run out of the bondage he had gotten himself into.

'Saburi, come and drive this Jeep to the rewire to help me check what's making sound inside it" madam had commanded.

Saburi drove out of the compound to the rewire's shop.

As the rewire opened the boot of the car. He was left with the biggest surprise of his life.

Tayo, Kenneth and Josh were the three jolly friends from SS1 till SS3. So, it was easy to execute the plan of dealing with Mr Jide.

It was already getting dark around 6pm, they knew when Mr Jide always use the bathroom outside his room. As he walked into the room to pick his towel that he forgot to pick, when he first came out. Kenneth tipped toed to the bathroom and poured the grinded dried leaf into his bathing water.

As he entered the bathroom, he applied the soap to his hair and he started whistling, before pouring the water on his body.

He didn't feel anything immediately but a minute later, he ran out naked shouting "who did this?"

The boys in the door closeby shouted back "Jesus, oh my God!"

 Mr Jide danced so much that he had to be taken to the clinic, minutes later by the gardener, who also helped cover his nakedness by giving him a short.

Red oil was rubbed all over his body. He stayed days in the clinic receiving treatment. When he fully recovered, the shame didn't make him come back to the male hostel for the remaining weeks to the end of the term.

Two weeks after, the school had their usual graduation day. Parent came with different gift, food and other menu to grace the occasion but no one showed up for Josh.

Josh managed to receive two awards as the best student in Biology and Agric Science.

The graduation ended and he had to follow his friends who promised to help him with his load.

The reality of life finally dawned on Josh and he had to think of a faster way to help himself out since help wasn't coming from his family.

School was over and even with the good grades he had in his WAEC, he couldn't afford to get a Jamb form for himself.

Three months later, Josh saw a Vacancy of house help in a street far away from his usual vicinity. He opted for the house help job for his upkeep and other expenses.

He knocked on the gate that afternoon and he was asked to come in.

"Have you ever done this kind of job before?" The man at the gate asked but since he had never done the job before, he didn't want to lie so he had to let him know that he was doing it for the first time.

"We will employ you for your honesty" the man had said as he walked to the main building of the house "Come and resume next week... Hold on, what did you call your name again?"

"Josh... Josh Alarape" he replied with excitement.

He couldn't hide his joy that day as he was walking faster home. His sleep that day was different as he was counting down to the days he had left under the roof of his father and step mother.

Minutes to hours and hours to days. The day for him to resume finally arrived. He had left home very early that morning so he could meet up.

He got to the house by 7:45am and the man he had met the last time told him to wait at the gate for the madam of the house who will give him his full job description.

Few minutes later, the madam came around and that was the beginning of another journey for Josh.

What happened?
