LAYLA TODAY OR TOMORROW?
The news of the appearance of a black-eyed girl soon spread around the village and the rumours mongers are no one but the nurses who found the girl too creepy for their liking. "She insists her name is Layla and she is a demon sent by Lucifer to the earth as punishment for her betrayer to the dark lord," one of the white-dressed nurses whispered into the ear of her comrade, peeking at the deep-in-sleep girl on the patient's bed and resumed her gossiping, "she is an evil entity and must get rid off as soon as possible.""How are we going to get rid of her? Those who brought her had taken to their heels, and I was told she has no family.""Some young men in the village are planning to invade here and snuffed life out of her.""Oh my gosh. That is murder.""No. You can only murder humans and not demons. That is not murder but cleansing the world of every evil.""Won't there be any legal repercussions if she was assaulted?""They will come under the cover of darkness and not in broad day
LAYLA EMOTION DISPLAYED
A young boy in a white shirt and blue shorts stepped out of a brown-painted duplex and walked on a tarmac for some miles. He stopped beside a large field, stood arms akimbo, and peered at his mates playing football on the grassland far off. His courage seemed to be leaving him as he walked closer, halted some miles off and stood with a fixed smile. "I wish am tough and not a sissy." His voice was filled with sadness and he wasn't aware of the footsteps at his back. "Hey. I always see you standing alone. Why don't you join them to play football?"The boy turned about and was immediately mesmerised by the beautiful young girl in a bikini."They hate me and always called me a sissy.""Don't mind them," the girl paused her speech, jerked her new friend's arm and dragged him towards the shade of a mahogany tree beside them. "They are all bullies. Especially, Lang."The boy nodded his agreement, and the contentment of being held by the pretty girl made him redden. "Let's seat here and
LAYLA PRINCESS OF DARKNESS
Just like fire in harmattan, the news of the black-eyed girl spread around the island of Arkansas, and the tongues of those who heard about her were tied in shock. Since we fear what they don't understand, and hatred always comes after fear, the inhabitants became fearful of her."That which is the source of the excess rain that is destroying our plants.""My farms were destroyed by erosion, and it's all Layla's fault.""My cow died overnight, and I suspect witchcraft is involved."At last, plans were put in place to exterminate the evil one among them, and D-day promptly arrived sooner than expected. As soon as the world was pitched in darkness because of the starless and moonless sky, some group of young men in black uniforms and hoods over their heads were seen gathering under the bridge to Arkansas general hospital."I hope we are all here?" "Aye. Let's be on our way now.""Are we returning her to the middle of the sea or we are killing her?""Killing her, of course. Who has th
LAYLA WELCOME TO YOUR PAST
Six people were crammed inside a minibus, and the driver drove around the neighbourhood for a while."Over there. That is their lair," the young girl announced from the back of the car.Zuma drove closer to the uncompleted building on the left side of the road, parked and was out of the car as soon as the ignition was turned off. "Hey. I need to talk to you. Where is Lang?"Six lads were smoking cigarettes and gambling when one among them noticed the officers in uniform, signalled to his comrades, and they all scampered out of the back door and were soon lost among the numerous buildings."Wait. Am not here to arrest you. I just want the novel you collected from her.""Get lost!""Come after us, if you dare.""Damn kids. I am trying to save them from untimely death," Zuma raised his two arms and shrugged."We can't leave them to their fates. Please let's look for them," Isabella let out. "Did you know where they usually gathered apart from here?""No." "Did you know their house?""
LAYLA LIFE IS AN ILLUSION
A young man stepped out of his cottage, glanced at the dagger in his hand, descended the steps and raced into the midst of the mobs. "Make way... Make way, and let me see his face." "Take it easy, boss. He was caught red-handed and will be handed over to the sheriff." "Impossible. The last criminals we handed over to them were released immediately after. He must be made a scapegoat to serve as a deterrent to others that the Seaview territory is not to be stepped by a bandit." "I... I am not a bandit," a voice chipped out of the mobs, and the man with the dagger shoved the men out of the way with his shoulder and glared at the naked man on the ground. "Please don't kill me. I am a foreigner and lost my way-." "Be silent and say no more. You are a bandit and should be killed." "Take it easy, Banjo. Let's verify his statement before delivering our judgement." "What is there to verify? He was caught among our grains and had ten filled bags on a wagon. What is there to confirm again
LAYLA KARMA IS REAL
The sound of gunshots boomed suddenly and was immediately followed by screams and scurrying feet. "Run for your life, we are under attack.""Into the bunker!""Get off the way now.""My husband is shot. Oh...my... Gush!"The uproar become hysterical at the sight of thousands of men in combat uniforms, and the assaulted inhabitants of the peaceful village raced into the safety of their houses, then hurried back as their refuges burst into flame."Ransacked their house and put all the males to death," a man stepped out from the mobs, gestured to some of his subordinates and announced, "come with me.""They were defenceless villagers, and were just unlucky to be on the enemy's territory, I suggest we tempered justice with mercy, Sir.""Remind me your position, officer.""I am an enlisted private, commander!""Stick to your post and don't put your mouth where it isn't needed," the commander announced, stepped in front of the advancing armies, jerked his machine gun up and targeted an unf
LAYLA THE UNIVERSE IS A SCHOOL
The room is sparsely furnished and filled with lots of gadgets, and romantic music boomed from the radio on the centre table. The couples on the king-size bed cling to each other for a while and the woman raised her head from her man's hairy chest and looked into his eyes, and then asked, "what will you do about her? It's two days now since you brought her here," the voice of the woman boomed over the sound from the radio. "Don't worry. I have informed my superior and they will make arrangements for her at sooner time," he stood up from the mattress, grinned at his wife and announced, "we will be okay, she is just staying with us for more few days." "No. That girl is evil and must be sent back to hell where she escaped from... You won't believe she hasn't eaten anything since she arrived here?" "Why. Did you ask for her choice of the meal?" "Yeah. Guess her reply?" "What?" "She said she had been feeding on our fear since she arrived here, and the only food she wants from us is
LAYLA UNCOMMON AMONG THE EARTHLINGS
Apart from the humming sound of the chopper engine, the two passengers were as quiet as a mouse through their flight to Arkansas island. Each was lost in his thoughts and unaware when the chopper descended."I shouldn't have pulled the trigger. I thought he want to attack me, and I shot on impulse," Isabella said as they came down from the eggbeater. "Stop blaming yourself. He is already possessed and will be dying after all.""I can't get it off my chest.""Keep repeating to your subconscious that you did the right thing under such conditions. Believe me, I would have pulled the trigger if he take a step further.""Are you saying this to make me feel better?""Nope. He isn't himself and is unpredictable. All Layla's zombies always remind me of a zombie movie I watched during my teenage days."Isabella giggle at Zuma's speech, looked into the taller man's face, and asked, "where are we heading?""To their police station. Am sure they will have some records of her.""That's the polic
