Episode 11
That day I ate around 10pm in the night.
If not for that Okpa and sachet water I bought earlier in the day, I wonder what would have become of me.
My madam came back with her husband and dished some jollof rice into my plate and handed it to me.
I thanked her and sat on the mortar to eat.
The food was still warm and delicious not minding the fact that it was cooked early in the morning before the incident with the white woman took place.
I ate fast and then had the plate washed and kept on the rack to dryâŠ
The next day was a saturday and unfortunately for me I didnât wake up early.
I was very tired and exhausted when I went to bed the past night so I didnât know when morning came.
The fury which the piece of wire landed on my neck this time around was ten times more painful than I had ever felt before in my life.
I screamed so loud that my madamâs husband ran into my room to find out what was happening to me.
As soon as my madam heard her husbandâs footstep approaching, she threw the piece of wire under my bed and frowned at me as warning not to talk.
âWhatâs the problem?â My madamâs husband asked as soon as he got to my room.
I kept quiet sobbing hysterically.
âWhy are you crying?â He asked again staring at me.
For a reply, I sobbed the more.
âDarling why is she crying?â He asked facing his wife â my madam.
Madam kept silent.
âCan someone please tell me what is happening here?â Madamâs husband insisted.
I didnât talk, madam didnât talk.
In anger, the husband stormed out of the room and into their masterâs bedroomâŠ
