Episode 7
During my dog hunting, i excitedly forgot everything apart from showing my non-fear of dogs to my babe, when i heard a cruel sound behind me.
I turned in time to see my so call babe fleeing like an antelope. My new babes were four huge female police dogs.
âchai i don die todayâ, but as a real Akwa Ibom man i decided to test my Usain Bolt speed.
âI don die o, help me oâ I screamed, running like a mad man. Before i spelt google i was on the ground dragged by the mean looking dogs. I started praying my last prayer.
âJack, Lion, Prince, Baggie, â stop that nonsense.
âSo heaven get names sef abi God dey call His bodyguardsâ i thought.
âHope you were not bitten?â a humanly voice interupted my heavenly journey.
That was when i felt a sharp pain on my bottom. I started crying like a new born baby. According to stories i heard from grown ups, if one was bitten by a mad dog that person must become mad, so when i saw they were police dogs, i felt that i was going to be a policeman that moment.
âSorry oâ the woman chipped in, she then called her daughter to take me to a hospital nearby where i was giving some antibiotics(an injection given to someone to prevent infection) and then i was taken to the womanâs house where I was given a big plate of rice, plantain and two big pieces of chicken meat.
âMehn if na so i go dey enjoy God make dog dey bite me everydayâ I foolishly prayed.
Maybe its because my people are dog eaters thatâs why the dog wanted to eat me first, even though I had never eaten dog meat before.
âWhy you leave me run,TTina?â I quarreled my run away wife.
âYou no see as the dogs big?â She replied.
I went home sulking.
âOya sleep o today na night vigilâ my sister informed us. What i love most about the vigils was that we always made alot of noise, play and tell stories and we also get to dance alot during praises time and then find place to sleep immediately the pastor starts with his boring messages.
So that day we all ran to sleep as if that would prevent us from sleeping that night. We all woke up and went to church, we met our friends and started our children gossip.
âWho don watch cinderella?â Paul, Tinaâs elder brother asked us. âAbeg tell us na; we begged.
One thing with Paul was that anything he said he always added the word âbahâ, as such ;
âthere was one girl name cinderella, if you see that girl bah, she fine well well, but she na orphan, she get two ugly sisters, so una
don dey sleep bahâ
âNo we still dey hear youâ We would encouraged him.
After the long story filled with âbahsâ ended, we went out to play and then i saw what made my love abi infactuation for Tina almost vaporized.
âOya make una dey come inside, church wan startâ an usher called us, we all went in, during the praise section I went outside to ease myself, when i turned, i almost died with shock. She was standing behind me waiting.
âWetin you want?âi asked her.
âI just came to ask you to be my friendâ
âIs that all?â i foolishly asked with my mind beating excitedly like kukere drum beat.
âYesâ she smiled, âbut i want you to seal our friendship with a kissâ she added.
Mehn i have die, i said in my mind. She brought her lips close and what i saw next was like a heavenly background with Angel Micheal playing a tambourine for us.
âYou all might be wondering who âsheâ is, well that wasnât Tina but a damsel more lovelier than herâ. Lets wait and seeâŠâŠâŠ
