Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 6
Moving To Italy, Episode 6
Uju has come to accept the fact that she might not be allowed to leave Madam Philo's hotel even if she wants to. She has seen that she has come to a dangerous place. There was no way she would escape so soon. Even if she wants to escape, it will take her a long time to plan. It is not something she would wake up and do without proper consideration. Her encounter with the old man taught her a serious lesson. It taught her that she was only going to survive at the hotel if she was tough. She has vowed within her heart that she was not going to allow any man to touch her throughout her stay in the hotel.
"No man will touch me throughout my stay in his hotel. I will not allow Madam Philo to use me as a marketable commodity. I'm going to keep myself for the man who will marry me. I will never sell my body to any man. It is true that I want to make money, and I made a mistake to have come here, but any money I make must be made through legitimate work, not by selling my body. It is not going to happen. I will stay here and leave without any man touching me. I'm going to achieve that and I will surprise Madam Philo. I will show her that she is not the only wise person in this world." Uju said to herself that night. The waiter had told her that another customer was coming, so she was waiting for that customer.
"Imagine me having to attend to several men in one night? This woman is so wicked. So, this is what she brings ladies from Nigeria to do in Benin Republic? She makes false promises of taking them to Italy only for them to end up in Benin Republic where they will be using their body to make money for her. Well, I will not be part of those she will be using to make money.
In fact, as she is making money, I will be making my own money. I will show her that I'm also a wise woman." Uju said as she cleaned her face before the mirror in readiness to welcome the next customer.
"Madam Philo cannot bring me to a hotel against my wish and then turn me into a money making machine. I will not allow that to happen. She cannot turn me into her ATM while I'm left with an empty purse. As she is making money, I will also be making my own money. And like I said earlier, none of the men coming into this room will touch me." Uju said again with a determined tone. Just then, she heard a knock at the door. She opened the door and saw that it was the waiter who was knocking.
"I hope you are getting ready for the next customer? You will attend to three customers tonight. When I leave now, another customer will come in. That is the second person. You will have another customer to attend to before you will be allowed to sleep." The waiter said to Uju.
"I have still not eaten anything. Did you bring my food? How do you want me to attend to three people without eating? Do you want me to die? Why are you people being so heartless? You should not be treating people like this." Uju said with an emotional voice.
"Don't worry, I have brought your food. And please, Madam Philo is not wicked. I'm not a wicked man as well. We will treat you well as far as you do your job. If you do your job well, you will enjoy and have every good thing you want. But you will have serious problems if you refuse to cooperate." The waiter said.
"And who told you this is the job I want to be doing? I'm staying here against my wish. You people are holding me hostage. Well, give me the food let me eat. At least, let me eat and get my energy back. I have not eaten anything since I left Nigeria, not even a snack." Uju said as she took the plate of friend rice and chicken from the waiter. She started eating aggressively. She ate like someone who has been fasting for many weeks. Indeed, her belly was empty, with no food in it.
"When you finish eating, gather your energy and wait for the next customer. Make sure you treat the customer well. Each time we lose a customer, you will be held directly responsible because it would mean you did not treat that customer well." The waiter said as he leaves the room.
Uju quickly finished eating her food, cleaned up again and reapplied her makeup. She even looked more beautiful and stunning than before.
"Hunger can make someone to look ugly. Look at how my face is shining now that I have eaten. Indeed, I'm a very beautiful woman. Madam Philo wants to turn me into something I don't know. She wants to be using me to make money. Alright, Madam Philo, let us play the game." Uju said to herself. She went to the bedside and positioned her phone camera in a hidden place.
"Every man that comes into this apartment will be recorded. However, none of them will touch me. I will teach them a lesson." She said as she brought out the gun she collected from the old man who first visited her.
"I will use this gun to my advantage." Uju said. She sat on the bed and waited for the customer. She hid the gun under the pillow.
It was not long before the next customer came in. This time around, it was a young man. As soon as the man came in, he moved to the bedside and started removing his clothes. As he was removing his clothes, Uju's hidden phone camera was capturing him.
"Good evening sir. You are welcome sir." Uju greeted him respectfully.
"Good evening. Let's do it quickly. There is no need for greetings." The man said. He had finished removing his clothes.
"Ah! Sir, please, did you bring anything for me? Like cash? I used to collect money before doing it. And it is pay before service." Uju said.
"What do you mean? I have paid Madam Philo before I was allowed into this place. Why are you asking for another money?" The man asked Uju.
"Well, I'm not Madam Philo. I'm the one who is going to attend to you. You have to pay me." Uju said.
"Don't try me or, I will deal with you." The man said. Uju's camera was busy recording. Uju brought out her gun and showed it to the man.
"You should not be shouting at me sir. I'm not your housemaid, neither am I your wife. If you shout at me, I will teach you a lesson. Bring your brief case." Uju said. The man saw the gun and started shivering.
"Please, don't pull the trigger. You can take all the money in the briefcase." The man said to Uju. Uju opened the briefcase and saw $10,000 in it. She took the money. She then ordered the man to wear his clothes and leave.
'As you leave, don't ever come back to this hotel. And you know what? My camera recorded you when you were removing your clothes. If you ever tell anyone that I took your money, I will post the video online." Uju said as the man 'As you leave, don't ever come back to this hotel. And you know what? My camera recorded you when you were removing your clothes. If you ever tell anyone that I took your money, I will post the video online." Uju said as the man grabbed his bag and ran out of the hotel with speed.
