BETRAYER IN DISGUISE??
Episode 12.

Still on the floor wincing in pains I heard a kind of commotion outside. At first I ignored concentrating on what was paining me but it sounded serious. I tried putting myself together to know what's going on but suddenly a sound of broken bottle was heard and the shouts increased.

I shifted myself aside and drew myself to the wall trying to understand what the noise is all about,
"You be mumu! You wan tell me say the police no dey road dey come here now? Why you stupid like this? How we take sabi you sef! I heard a guy voice.
"See no try me o, now I dey control my temper you dey push me, if I loose am eh! Favour cousin said.

"You still dey talk? Who you be sef? Who born you! The guy shouted so fiercely.
"Dah make Una stop this rubbish na! Wetin this shout go solve now when we suppose dey ready for those people. If na to open fire we go open give them, one guy shouted.

"I been wan tell this idiot say my ear dey there, if any move wan happen he go alert us and he dey shout rubbish, empty vessel like am, Favour cousin said.
"Your mama! The guy shouted.

"E don do! Whether your ear or nose dey for station e no go change the fact say this place go soon expose and we need to find another levels, the guy continued.
"But where we wan relocate go now as e be so? This place been good for us somehow o, another voice said.

"See eh, if Una dey plan to open fire for ekelebe when dey show, prepare to dey open everyday because this place go still dey their black book if they trace am. Simple thing, make we comot from here avoid more wahala for ourselves, a different person said.

"But wetin bring all this casala come sef? The girl you kidnapped wetin she do? Someone asked.
"See yeye question. Sef how e take concern you now? E concern you? She fired back and the guy hissed.

"As e be so, we no go fit return that girl back if they no succeed to track this place, because she fit bring them here, she fit trace this place o, someone said.
"Before who been wan return am? I heard her said and my heart skipped.

"Are they going to kill me? I asked breathing hard.
"Una go kill am? Someone asked.

"Stupid question. But make Una calm down, the person wey yan me this news so no tell me say they don discover this place. He go try cover up for us or hint us before any thing, so make Una chill, I get this one, Favour cousin replied and I was already shedding tears.

"So Joan just like that it's your time to die? Kept ringing on my head.
"Now wey she don spoil show, how you go take reach her papa? One asked.

"Nothing spoil o, she only spoil am for herself. But if I know say they no track this place, I go still go ahead with the threat because they no still get option. But one thing be say I go carry Favour leave Naija straight, that girl sharp and e dey pain me she dey for that cell so. To compensate am for all the trouble na to clear this girl comot, she replied.

"No wahala na, come go abeg you don dey bring us trouble already, someone said.
"Ode! like say you no like am, she said laughing and I was shivering.

I folded my knees and placed my face on it as I thought about everything that could enter my head.
No one entered the room nor did i heard anything about me, but the discussions that filtered into my ears where operations they are to carry out in the night.

In the evening after I used my hands to massage my back, the door opened and the guy who caught me when i wanted escaping walked in.
I sniffed saying nothing and he closed the door and bent down facing me where I sat on the floor.

"How are you? He asked but I said nothing without even looking at him.
"Ermmm can I get you something to eat? He asked again and I looked at him.

"Yes, and that's poison. Why not just end my life in a less painful way so I won't get to see how you will cut me into pieces and feed me to vultures, I replied and he heaved.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know they were going to kill you, he said.

"You're sorry like it's something strange huh? Is that not what you all do here? I asked.
"Listen to me Joan..... "How did you know my name? I cut in.

"Okay okay I..i... I saw your school bag and went through it. And ermmm.. I once attended your school, in fact i won as the best student in a big competition that was held in the state, he replied and i scoffed.
"I'm i to applaud you? I'm sorry my hands are too weak to clap for you, I said and he nodded.

"I understand you're angry with me but I........ "What are you doing here? Please just go okay, I cut in.
"Joan I'll get you out of here, trust me, he seriously said and I opened my mouth.

"What did you just say? I asked.
"I don't know how, but I won't let you waste away this way. Okay I'll be back, he replied and left and it was like I was dreaming.

Though i earnestly prayed for a miracle, but I never imagined it will be this way. I was supposed to be happy or relieved from my fears a bit, but no it increased and added with anxiety as I began to imagine how he will sneak me out of this place when its surrounded with lions and the bear in a lady form.

"God please! If you're hearing and seeing my cries, please get us out of here, I prayed.........

Minutes later the door opened and one of my honorable kidnapper came in with bread and a sachet of water.
"See your life, you no get sense but you wan struggle to get am. You just land yourself for more trouble, I pity you, he talked his trash and left when no one said a word to him, and i angrily shifted the chicken food away thinking of how that guy will sneak me from here.

Then the pains on my back came in full volume that I didn't know when my voice went out that I was heard.
They came in and held me up as I rolled the room from one corner,
"That's what you deserve baby girl, Favour cousin said when I was held to drink water.

"Haba you sef see this thing dey pain am na, the kidnapper who earlier dropped bread said.
"No be wetin she do herself? Who knows if she dey pretend sef, if she fit pretend say she dey sleep then run comot from this place, I fear this girl, the wicked one said.

"Leave am, na real drama queen you dey see so, but i go buy am drugs later, she said.
"Sorry, sorry iyeh, the other kidnapper said to me and they hissed and left.
I couldn't say anything to him and he had to leave too leaving me alone when I could bear the pains.

I didn't know when i slept off but i heard a tap on my back and i opened my eyes.
The room was dark so i couldn't see who it was but a flashed light was on,
"Its me, can you stand? The guy said and I tried getting up but my legs were weak.

He held me up but a sharp pain ran through my back,
"Sorry easy okay, he said.
"Where are we going? Is everyone asleep? I asked.

"Let's go, he replied crossing my hand on his shoulders as he quietly led me out of the room.........
