Saii I have entered one chance, could it be that the c*ndom busted or did she….. God, so many confused thoughts running through my mind.

I remember when I first parked into this compound, I was attracted to it because the environment was neat and clean and also very quiet, a very good environment for writers like me.

I moved into my selfcon, as a bachelor I didn’t much and also didn’t have much. I arranged everything in my abode the way I wanted and after everything, I prepared a small meal, ate and relaxed.

The next day, I explored the compound. I found out that most of my neighbors were single and only few were married or a family.

Since I didn’t have a job yet aside Writing to a local station which I did everyday. I was at home often. This brought a little problem between the compound. It was rumoured that I was a yahoo boy, that I don’t work, yet I use an iphone and also own an apple laptop.

At first I didn’t keep ears for the rumors, because I’m a very quiet and simple person by nature not untill the day I came back and found some government officials at the front of my flat.

We’re from the EFCC and we’ve received several news saying your an internet fraudster, said a fat elderly man.

So here’s a warrant, he said, showing me a paper, we have direct order to search you, your home, your cellphone, your laptop and everything you own, he added.

By now everybody in my compound had gather to see what will happen, some were even recording with their phones.

I smiles and told the man to search every nook and crane in my abode, and also my laptop and my phone.

I sat down outside while the man and his colleagues when to do their job. It surprised everyone that I wasn’t panicking or feeling scared. But why will I when I’m innocent.

The was one particular man that was looking at me like we’ve met before.

After searching everything including my phone and laptop, they were about leaving when the man that was looking at me seriously asked me if I was Savvy. I was surprised, but I told him yes.

He smiled and told his colleagues that I’m a writer not an internet fraudster. He further explained to them that I’m his daughter crush and it’s from her he got to read more of my stories.

He told them if they remember when he was laughing at the office and telling them a story of a young man who a calabar girl wanted killing with sex, and they replied yes.

He told them that I’m the young man who experienced it and also the one who wrote it.

His explanation solved everything, he even handed me a card containing his house address, inviting me to a dinner at his house, adding that his daughter will be so happy.

I collected it and smiled.

My neighbors apologized to me and said the were just being vigilant. I told them it was the right thing they did and that I wasn’t angry.

The evening of that day, a knock landed on my door, I told who ever was there to come in and Esther my landlord’s daughter entered.
