Episode 18

A week later before the school closed the principal called me into his office. He congratulated me on my bravery for facing Cecilia without fear of reprisal and thereby saving him and the students from harm, but he further said that I was in danger if I continued staying in the school, that Cecilia might have something sinister in her mind for me.

“She might sent someone to kill or maim or abduct you because you ruined her plans,” he said. “right now the police are searching for her but they haven’t found her yet, and the worst of it is that she might harm before we could lay a hold on her. We went to her house but she had packed up and disappeared. So what we have to do for the better of you is that you have to find a good school in a remote area where she wouldn’t even think of finding you okay? I’m very happy that I didn’t stop you that morning God has really used you to save us”
I had to agree with him though no student knew it. They searched for schools and decided on this one because of its good reputation.

Prior to my arrival I encountered you and now I’m in love with you.”

She finished her story and I gasped.
” Sounds like a fairy tale isn’t it?” She asked and I nodded ” but it is true, I think the same thing that moved me to do that is the same that made me warn you of Mary, if not you would have been a victim now.”
“I agree with you.” I said ” but what is that thing? Is it the eye?”

Rita laughed, ” No! Not the eye, it’s just a gift. But talking of the eye, I wondered whose future was that in the mirror.”
” You don’t know?” I asked feigning a surprise.

” Yes seriously, I don’t.” She replied.
” It is your future. Your future is brighter than you think.” I said with an assuring tone and she smiled shyly and I admired her dimpled cheeks.

” Got any food? I’m hungry.”
” Yea but you have to cook it, I grabbed a bite from the fast-food yesterday and this morning as I was too lazy to cook.”

” That’s not a problem, I’ll cook.
” There’s a couple of frozen chicken in the fridge you can use to to cook,” I directed ” what are you planning to cook?
” Rice and tomato stew.” She replied.
” I think I was craving for egusi soup.” I said.

” Yea I can prepare the two in a heartbeat and then gave me a peck on the lips before heading to the kitchen, I watched her big ass sway as she goes.

” Reserve the broth for me.” I called after her. ” I do love it very much.”
” Not a problem honey.” She called back, so you drink chicken broth, no wonder you are so fresh.”
I chuckled at this.

She was soon through with preparing the food and the soup.

She had done that in an unimaginable speed. The aroma of the food made my mouth water as she brought it to the tiny dining area.
” You seemed pretty fast about it.” I commented.

” Yea, thanks to your gas stove.” She replied with a smile.

We settled down, said the grace and we began eating. She was a d–n good cook, the meal was delicious and I ate and ate until I was sprawling on the dining chair feeling like a Python that had swallowed a goat as I waited for some of the food to digest so I could have space to breathe.

She quickly clean up and did the dishes, something i always reserve for later.
After the meal we chatted on various subjects and spent some time watching action adventure movies on my phone. It was no surprise that she liked” Mad Max Fury road” the same way I do.
