Must Read: How 3 Girls Fought Over 1 Guy (A Tale)

I was smelling soil , correct compressed over pressed soil, “how come” I thought. I felt the hard heel of a timberland booth on my head. “what is going on I asked myself”, well instead of my brain to find out all I heard from it was one of shaggy’s famous songs ” why me, why me lord”.


They were talking, the girls where laughing, but I was not understanding, even though I was hearing.


As my thoughts was running riot, it ran over an issue that gingered me to reation, my burger!, wey my big expensive bread and egg with a collection of sliced tomato, onions and pepper!


Where is my food, that got me to react , I pushed the booth away and tried to stand up, hands where on me and I pushed them back , the struggle began. “I must retrieve my bread and egg at all cost!”, I said to myself ” what kind of man looses his food expecially when he is hungry” . Well I’m that kind of man, I heard a click and I went limp, by brain which had been shouting “fight ,fight ,fight” for some seconds went silent all of a sudden, no, it went silent instantly. It went so silent that even the best submarine sonar cannot detect it’s location. What made the click was clear to me, even though it was dark, I knew what it was, it was the sound of a sharp knife leaving it’s compressed chamber. I don’t know if it was a akbar or aigis, who cares, at this moment knife na knife and I’m not that stupid to think it will not be used on me, that it was sharp or blunt is not an experiment ill like to be part of.
I broke the guinness book of record for liter of sweat a man can produce per minute , in fact I broke the record for liter of liquid that leaves the skin of any living thing in one minute!.


I was just about shifting to prayers and begging accompanied with well choriographed wailin when I started hearing a familiar voice , it was Ade’s voice , getting louder and louder, and he was coming towards us.
loko! loko!, you dey craze?, you no hear wet in I talk?”, ade repeated over again, loko, who I later discovered is the name of the guy who pulled the knife on me and was about to sink part of it into my arse(later learnt that that was his intention). He stopped, looked at ade, then he and the second guy left me on the floor. Ade and the unknown babe came over , ade looked at me and said ” anti-ground, stand up”
me: “huh?”
ade: “stand up and go”
me: looked at the other guys and refused to move, who be ade compared to these boys? , he wan make them kill me when I try to stand up?, why are they not treating Ade’s interference, they should have descended on him for interfering na!. The only comfort Ade’s presence gave me was that he might tell others and school authorities the identities of those that are about to send me to the great beyond without my food.
ade: ” I say stand up!”
loko: ” you no dey hear again, i never slap you and you Don deaf already, comon, leave this place now”
The “now” part of loko’s statement has not reached me, but I was already on my feet, my waist and hips has turned to a V8 engine , propelling my legs at an ever increasing rate.



Ade later told me that after he blinked his eyes, he could not see me again, he suggested that I should start running for the school , I’ll Win medals at NUGA.


I ran to my room , lied to my roomate about why I was soaked in sweat and dirt. I also learned one thing that night, fear can belleful you!, I’ve not eaten for a while, but I’m surely was not hungry again!.
I finally was able to sleep later, but what do you think happened that night and the next day?
