“Babe you're looking so fine, I hope I leave the country soon!“, Sofia exclaimed while Rita only smiled at her.If only she knew. “Waiter get three bowls of jollof rice!!, a full chicken platter, two big vanilla ice cream and two plates of chicken peppersoup”. “The waiter was shocked when you repeated the three bowls of jollof Rice, he had a 'who will eat it expression' on his face”, sofia made fun of him while laughing out loud.“Don't mind him, he doesn't know what he's in for”, Rita joined the happy chat as they both laughed loudly.He brought their order and gently placed it on the table. He dropped the three large bowls of rice, sofia stared at him and he still looked shocked.They immediately started laughing, he kind of felt embarrassed and immediately passed the bill to Rita. She transferred the money and gave him 500 as a tip.He said thank you and quietly left with a smile evident on his face.They set one bowl aside and descended on two, they each finished their bowls of r
In no time, he got to the back door, swiftly opened it and rushed to block them at the gate.He got to them, just as they were about to open the gate. Sofia bent her head, silently blaming Rita for what just happened. If only her and the scary fair guy didn't waste so much time, perhaps they wouldn't have bumped into this guy.Too much unfortunate events happening at the same time. Sofia rolled her eyes, and stared at Rita who looked oblivious of the situation.She really didn't know who Sofia danced with , so this guy was just someone she know.“Uhm, were you following me?“, Sofia thought of all the possible ways to actually dismiss this guy and get going but he just stood there, staring at her, looking like someone who had just been relieved to have found something.So she asked again, “Hello, were you following me?”. This time he seemed to have regained his senses and finally gave her the dumbest reply she had ever heard.“I suddenly missed you and I wanted us to continue the dance
Upon noticing that Gabriel took after him of all his sons, he was very relieved.Gabriel's younger ones all lived carefree and were obviously never interested in any superstitious thing. Gabriel was the only one that loved things like that, apart from healing and wealth, he was fully aware of what his father does with his powers.After graduating from the Tertiary institution, Mr Don sent Gabriel to the states to learn more about Black Magic. Gabriel spent five years abroad and came back looking completely different from the normal Gabriel they all knew. His brothers looked at him differently, they didn't know why he traveled or what he traveled to do.They only knew that he went abroad, to do what?. Only their dad had the answer to this question and he was definitely not going to tell them.During the five years stay, Gabriel cut ties with his three brothers, his friends and close ones. He only kept in touch with his dad.He lived a lonely and dark life, with only two things in his
She went closer and shook Rita vigorously, seriously trying to wake her up.She heard squeaks from the window, a high pitched sound that seemed to increase whenever she tried waking Rita. This continued for two times until she tried again..The sounds became higher as her window became wide open causing a heavy breeze to come inside.Sofia ran and hid behind the cupboard, things were getting worse by every second. She stared at Rita who looked deep asleep.“Why would waking Rita up be so much of a hassle?“, Sofia breathed heavily and pondered on everything that just happened. If she was some sort of a light brained person, she definitely would have thought that Rita had something to do with her current situation.But things were not actually what they seemed to be. Sofia crossed her hands and placed them on her knees as she rested her back on the wall obviously expecting the worst.Whoever caused all these definitely came for her. Sofia was not a deep Christian who would have started
Sofia lay on the couch with the bruises on her face. She lay still with her eyes darting from place to place, completely oblivious of her situation.She hoped to tell Rita what happened but now things moved from bad to worse. She couldn't talk and her memories kept on blurring, there was literally no way she could let Rita in on the matter on ground.“I woke up this morning and saw some clothes scattered, I saw Sophia on the ground with these marks all over her face. She looked pale and weak like someone with little or no strength. From what I can remember, we were both on the bed before I fell asleep but this morning she was on the cold floor, as cold as ice” , Rita hurriedly explained to the angel figure that stood before her, Desmond.“When she woke up, did she say anything or react funny?, how did she behave when she woke up?, Desmond probed further trying to understand the whole thing.“When she woke up, she didn't move her body, her eyes looked like it was going to fall out of i
Seven days had passed away in the blink of an eye but Sofia was still in her pitiful state with no sign of healing soon.Everyday, she looked the same, mute and always aloof, like nothing else mattered. Rita was having a hard time with everything that had happened so far.She was lost and in the dark but Desmond was ever present to help her take care of Sofia. Every midnight Sofia would strangely sit up in the bed and start starting into space.“Just like what happened last night. At exactly 12:00am, Sofia sprang up from bed, completely looking like someone who has been operated with a remote control. I went to ease myself that night , and when I got back to the room, Sofia scared life out of me”, Benny looked concerned as she narrated her ordeal to Desmond.“So what later happened?“, Desmond probed further, literally paying attention to the smallest detail.“When I came in and met her like that, I screamed and switched on the light. She sat alone with bloodshot eyes and did nothing b
He sat on his dark stool and stared at the Black earthenware on his altar.Being a strong potion lord and a conjurer, he had different liquids boiling in various tubes around his shrine. He imagined Rita's face and summoned her spirit to reveal where she is at the moment.He saw a two story building that looked shady. It was painted in Ash and Ox blood and these were two 'not so bright' colours to him.Something about the building was off, it reeked of intense darkness and sorcery. Being a witch too, it was only normal for him to sense a strong power emanating from the building.He looked deeper and saw Sofia at the verge of life and death. He saw Rita gradually losing her sanity due to everything that has been happening to her best pal.He took a closer look at Desmond and realized how pure his heart is. He imagined the place and teleported to the house at night.He felt much darkness emanating from inside the house, someone in that house definitely had something to do with the sh
Like a mad dog, he was out of control and was slowly losing his sanity.Gabriel tormented Big b in the dream and in the daytime he'd make him hallucinate. For him, this was only the beginning.In the dream he'd appear to be a green ripper with a long hook-like tool and a sharp blade. Big b was totally powerless in his dreams despite being a strong Witch.Seeing the scary ripper in his dreams, became an everyday routine. Not only did this ripper chase him in the dream, he also multilated after he must have caught him.The ripper showed no mercy while multilating him. He'd cut him deeply, to the point where Big b would beg for death instead of the gruesome torture he received.And when he finally wakes up he'd feel sore in the parts of his body that was mutilated in the dream.He was still in the dark and scared of whatever tortured him. Since the day he noticed the presence of a stronger Witch, he had known no peace and therefore lived like a peasant who was constantly in fear of the B
He was still engrossed in his thoughts when he sensed a strange presence around his house. His eyes glowed golden as the uncanny presence revealed itself.It was a grim reaper, a bizarre one at that. This reaper was dressed in white with a sickle-like tool in the right hand. The hood was empty, with no face just pitch black but two hands were visible too.Elio was taken aback by this unearthly person, why would a grim reaper dress in white? It was getting funny and confusing as Elio subconsciously started laughing.He was still laughing when the reaper charged at him, before he could avoid it, the sickle-like took already injured him, hence he braced up himself and swallowed hard, ready to fight for his life.The reaper advanced towards him and each strike was twice as strong as before. The power-thirsty Elio had cuts all over hence, he knew that this person was after his life.He thought of spells to use but then, being a dumbass was the worst thing that could happen to anyone. He th
She took a closer look at the woman and then, ran some inches away from her after seeing how dark he eyes were. Everyone was indeed scary and they all creeped her out. The white-haired woman waved her hands and the exceptionally beautiful woman came back to herself and more frightening women stopped resurfacing."Child, let's go in" Sofia was a bit skeptical but she knew she could trust this elderly woman. She got to the sitting room and immediately felt dizzy as everything looked strange and weird. She saw a picture of a beautiful woman, a man, and another weird-looking woman.The frame of the beautiful woman was beside that of the man while the weird-looking woman's frame hung opposite the two. She stopped staring at the frames and walked toward the Sofa. She could feel something burning her skin, but it wasn't the necklace and she was the only one in the room, then where could the sensation be exuding from?Sofia took a Torchlight and looked at all the frames, weirdly, they were al
Gradually she looked at the lady and discovered that this lady was comfortably sitting down as though nothing was happening. Everyone in the car trembled in fear and was also very scared of losing their lives. The driver lost control of the vehicle as he found it difficult to control the steering. it became very stiff and strong and moved around from side to side as though it were a pawn on a chessboard. Sofia observed this lady and noticed her weird posture with smiles all over her exterior. She acted as though everything was in her control, with a determined look like one who could predict what would happen subsequently with her psyche.Her lips twitched as she muttered something inaudibly. Fear engulfed the women on the bus as they all prayed and hope to make it out alive. Sofia stood up amidst the moving vehicle not the least scared and advanced towards the lady as her finger lengthened. She looked as though she was going to rip out the lady's flesh and maybe feed her heart to
Something came upon Sofia and then, she stretched out her hand with so much force which made the reaper lose balance and fall back.Instantly, he got up and tried advancing towards her but something was restricting the reaper. It was as though something kept pushing him back the more he tried to come in front.Rita was at a loss for words as she had no idea what was going to happen the next minute. Sofia was on the floor growing very weak as she used the last ounce of strength in her to scream," Ligra sahkad dahg!"In no time, the grim reaper disappeared as Sofia passed out. Rita took her to the bed and made her sleep wondering if she heard right."What was it that Sofia said in a strange language that made the reaper disappear?" Rita pondered on things for a while, but answers were not available when needed, hence, she had no other choice but to sleep off.Before sleeping, she placed three fingers under Sofia's nostril just to make sure that she was still alive. Thereupon, she held

"Which is?" Gabriel probed further."Finding her roots" Aquila calmly replied. Her reply made Gabriel and Rita turn their faces in confusion while looking at themselves.It was a very surprising thing to hear, "Wait, what? What do you mean by that?" Rita was the most confused person amongst them, hence she had to ask again for better clarification."A lot of things are attached to her, her birth, parents, siblings, and her village. She knows the people who claim to be her siblings, but the truth is, they're not her siblings. They only stood in the gap to help her, but now, after receiving various threats from the Witch they're all far away from Sofia.""Her glorified siblings told her that she is from Ebo but they were only following instructions from the Witch. The instruction was to lie to her so she'd never find out her village because if she does, there'll be a big problem"Aquila logically explained things to them but Rita was quick to retort."If there'd be a big problem, is it
