She was dressed in a flowery patterned gown..wearing a hat and
some nice dark frames. She decided to sit
upstairs..away from
people as much as possible..

She seemed excited to see me from the way
her mouth relaxed, but with the frames covering her eyes…truth
could me hidden.

Me: you look beautiful. .

Cynthia: I wish I could tell you same but you
have a strange
sense of dressing…all this Buba and sokoto thingy…you dont
look Yoruba, why try so hard..

Me: well I think I am..

Cynthia: Anyways there is something that just
came up..

Me: what..?

Cynthia: you remember my informant? ..she
was sacked
also.

Me: my apologies..I wish there is something I
can do..

Cynthia: thats not the point..the point is you should get those
people…whatever it is they are trying to do…
defeat them for me
and her..

Me: I might have gotten a break..but the less
you know, the better.

Cynthia: thank you. There is something else…
the informant saw
a lady come look for you in the hospital,
shortly after the
accident. She said she was directed there.

But the staff had
already been instructed to keeo your presence
secret. So they
said you were rejected.

Me: wow …can you describe her?

Cynthia: nope…but the informant said she is fair…and very
beautiful. .

Was that a glimpse of jealousy I saw in her
eyes?

Me: how do I get her now…?

Cynthia: call her

Me: how ?

Cynthia: my informant got her number before
she drove off..Red
Camry…

Me: oh..thank God..something concrete at
last… She gave me the number, it was scribbled on a
note pad.

Cynthia: please respect me as a lady and call
her after I have
gone..

Me: no p..

Cynthia: I am back with my boyfriend. ..I am
going to stay with
him in katsina..distance was one of our
problems…now that I am
jobless, I can right that wrong.

Me: I wish you the best..sincerely. .

She looked at me and smiled..we both knew I
didnt really mean
what I said as regards her and her boyfriend. .

Me: what can I offer you..should we try their
chicken?.

Cynthia:..no..I am not hungry..we could try something kinky
thou. ..

Me: like what?

Cynthia: meet in the ladies room in 2min..

Me: you crazy..this is a public…
…

she stood up and walked to the rest room.. ….there is something wild about public sex, especially when you are doing it with a sxy** lady…her pink
p@anties was at her knees
when I got in..she had folded her gown
upwards to reveal perfect creamy backside. Her purse was on top of the
hand drier..she
held the hand sink, I could see her face from
the reflection on the
mirror.
“No, leave my hat on…”…she said as I attempted to take it off
her head.

As I entered her we became one…even if for
the last time…..we
smelled like strawberries… Everything in my body wanted to make that
call but I wanted
Bayo to be there when I did. Somehow I felt he
was in it almost
as much as I was.

But I couldn’t hold it any longer, I made up my mind to call her
as soon as I got to Egbeda bustop. That silly
Bayo chose that
time to call me..

Bayo: Otunba, where u dey?

Me: Egbeda

Bayo: bad guy…u don finish nurse abi?..satanic
pikin.

Me: sharrap jor..I got an important number.

This person is linked
to my past..

Bayo: you don call am?

Me: No..I wanted to just now…

Bayo: ok na….

Me: or you wan dey dere when I call?

Bayo: na your choice o..

Me: oya I dey come..

Bayo: hurry o…mama onome yam and akara wan almost

Me: ok..how onome?

Bayo: no mind the girl…she dey her monthly
cycle. .

Me:eeeyah…Shade nko? Bayo: she don go sell her meat na..

Me: Bose nko?

Bayo: E be like say the credit wey dey your
phone too much…

Me: I dey come…
Alas! My excitement and all was to no avail…’the number called
was not reachable’
How do you send s message to a person when
you dont know
who you are?

Bayo was sitting beside me on a bench. I missed the yam and
akara so we settled for fried fish and garri.

Verily I say unto you,
the cheapest food are the sweetest.

Bayo: send text to am, tell am say na you be
the guy wey she come find for hospital. Lota hospital.

Me: smart …thanks bruv.

We decided to still go on with the plan to
search Alhaji’s house.

Me: so how we go take pass the gate mam
wey him no go knw?…

Bayo: that one na small thing. ..when e don
reach 10pm..we
enter..

It was 10:45 when we finally got to the gate.

We had one bottle of seaman’s and two bottles of Alomo..
