Episode 12
Cristine’s Pov:
I waved at Daniella as she reversed her car and drove out of the compound.
“I’ll see you later best” She screamed
I airkissed her as she speeded off.
I looked at the big duplex and sighed.
Her presence actually lightened the house up since the maids were on leave.
I yawned hungrily as I walked into the duplex.
? ? ???
I sliced the tomatoes ? and onions into a bowl as I brought out of the cupboard the can of vegetable oil.
Am very famished so I’ll be preparing sauce for dinner.
I turned the gas cooker on with the pot on top of it.
I poured the vegetable oil in the pot.
Suddenly, I began to have difficulty in breathing.
I felt like I was choking as smoke filled the whole place since I added onions into the oil.
I needed my inhaler.
This is definitely asthma attack.
I couldn’t even breathe.
I fell on the ground still gasping for breath.
I was almost passing out when someone rushed in.
Who could that be? ?
By then, the pot on the cooker was already on fire.
I fell into his arms still gasping for air.
“The… The…. The…. In…. In… haler..” I gasped
“What?’ the voice asked again.
The fire have already been quenched but there was still a little smoke.
“Inhaler… Drawer” I said as I could not say anything again.
He rushed off.
I was still struggling for breath in his arms…..
