The Adventure Of Akor

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 19

She opened her eyes and saw that peter already let the temple, she told me my son, I am not done yet don’t speak when the spirits are speaking…

Who is your son? Madam look at me, you can never give birth to a handsome guy like me, this is how y’all deceive the gullible minds into believing that their mother is a witch I said and wanted to leave when she demanded for offering…

Peter, I called out please come… peter came and ask me what I am still doing there with this blind seer, immediately peter said that, the seer yelled how dare you insult the great one… peter looked around looking for the great one great one she was talking about and asked her a rhetorical question, ‘where is the great one’? ‘madam, look at me very well there is nobody I don’t insult ooo, you can ask my friend… there was even a day I insulted someone and they beat me up but I didn’t stop oooo, why will you be this fake?’… Peter said

He turned to me and asked me why I called him, I told him the woman is asking for offering… peter started laughing and clapping his hands like a market woman, Akor, come again what did you say? I repeated myself and peter looked at her and told her ‘what have you seen that you are demanding for money’ Akor please let leave this place…

We left the place and headed straight to mama Odashi’s kitchen… I told peter that our lunch must have been ready and waiting for us at home but peter insisted we eat lunch there… we sat and lunch was served while eating a very beautiful lady walked into the restaurant, I was staring at her and literarily couldn’t get my eyes off her, peter was just looking at me while I was looking at the girl and was shaking his head… I acted as if I didn’t see him and continued staring I couldn’t let such beauty slip through my fingers and I decided to go talk to her.

Hello beautiful lady, how are you doing?

Fine and you?

I am fine, you are so pretty I said

She blushed and said thank you?

What’s your name?

Before she could answer a guy walked in and said “honey what’s taking you so long? And who is this guy looking like a beggar? Why not give him 500 naira so he can get something for himself?” When I had that I was so angry and I started yelling… how dare you? do you know whom I am? Look at this stupid man calling me a beggar, even my gateman is far better and richer than you…

The man told me to calm down but I kept yelling and insulting him, he took his phone out and made a short call and within a twinkle of an eye some hefty men walked in and one of then lifted me from the ground and put me on his shoulder… I started calling peter for help but peter was nowhere to be found.

They took me outside and asked me to kneel down, I told them I won’t do that, “do you know who I am, how dare you treat me this way, I will sue you…” before I could finish what I was saying one of them landed me a thunderous slap and ask me who are you? I immediately replied ‘I am nobody sir’ and I slowly knelt down, I didn’t hear anything with one of my ears for few seconds…

When all this was going on I was thinking the lady will caution her man just the way they do in movies but the lady was just there looking at me and smiling. Oh God what have I gotten myself into?

They were about to beat me up when mama Odashi ran out and started pleading with the man to spare me, I was so ashamed of myself.

The man finally let me go and I went back into the restaurant but still didn’t find peter there. I paid mama Odashi and left for home, while I was going on my bike I saw peter from a distance ‘running with the speed of light’ I speed up and caught up with him and told him to stop running but he refused to stop and didn’t even care to look at me… I left him and went home.

5min later, I saw peter ran into the compound and was locking the gate… when he finished locking the gate he started running towards me, immediately he lifted up his eyes and saw me sitting, he started running to the gate again shouting ghost ghost… what kind of human being is this I said to myself and started running after him.
