Pris'ners.

'Lie down there'....Shawulu screamed.
I laid down like a log, worn out and tired. I can't stand this pain again, Dear Lord, please, kill me.
Unfortunately, death wouldn't come. I tried all I could but nothing worked.

I felt Shawulus heavy body on mine. I turned my face and I saw the short black man. He just released his load into Amina while his friend was preparing to start. We were not only prisoners of war due to a non challant government; we were also sex slaves.

'Jesus'...I screamed as Shawulus' long unkempt finger dug into my flesh. He was pounding fast and he had been on for about three minutes. He did not look like he will climax soon. I was learning to use the 'I don't care' technique so I turned my face and saw a group of girls working. I caught Meinas' face with her already bulging stomach. A stream of tears ran down her face, with her eyes fixed on me. I did not know why she was cryinng. I made a mental note to ask her later. I was still staring at Meina when I felt a strong kick. I know what it means.

I stood up and returned to the group.

The people we trusted. They failed us.

To avoid the "H" thing, I either avoid words that begin with the letter or I try extra care but its usually when I'm being careful I goof. On one of my shifts, I was on night shift with MAQUIN of RayPower FM,Abuja and after he introduced himself, he had to introduce me. He was like..."There is one special, precious lady in the studio..." and after all the whining and head swelling description, he asked me to introduce myself. Maquin calls me "Lady L" on all his shows so after throwing jabs at Maquin, I was like..."Alright Abuja, its lady HEL in the house"...I added "HE" to the L. Oh Lord!!!...The ground refused to swallow me so I

Sunshine is one LOVE away!

The sun pierced through the curtains and into my eyes; with the rays of the sun that filtered in the curtains creating blotches that made my white walls yellowish. I closed my eyes to get more sleep but my banging head left me with no option than to stand up. I sat up for a minute and put my legs down after another. That had to do with the WhatsApp message mummy had sent me weeks before about having a heart attack if I stood up immediately I woke up. I smiled at the thought of following to the letters the same broadcast messages I condemned. I looked into the mirror and my groggy body and tired from crying eyes stared back at me. The splash of the water on my face jolted me back into the reality of the excruciating headache and imminent hunger. ************************************************* The table was filled with paperwork for the Obudu student’s vacation I was preparing for.
