All eyes were now on us and as if instructed, the Dj began playing a solo music, I looked at her for a while.
Me: Eve, thanks for everything you ve done. I won’t forget them so soon.
I went to my table, thanked my landlady, picked my lodge key and moved to leave the party. Eve came, running towards me and knelt down on my feet, grabbing my hand.
Eve: Forgive me in whatever I have wronged you, but know that I still and will keep on loving you.
Me: Stand up…
She did so hesitantly.
Me: Thank you…
I left the place and when I got home, I saw a bigger surprise. My door was wide open and music was playing in my room.
Who could it be?????
God of mercy, I said and searched myself to make sure I was actually with my keys. I never gave anyone my keys, even Kosi too. Who else couldhave broken into my room.
I stood outside at a distance, monitoring my room to know if I will notice any movement but didn’t notice any.
I stood motionless for about 10mins
checking to know if something will happen. No show.
So after like 20mins, I gathered all the moral I have ever mustered and multiplied it by 100 but agreeing to step into the house… My heart wasn’t at ease anyway but what can I do? What if someone had moved in to my lodge? Was my landlady
playing games on me? But I still went in anyway… Lo and behold…..

No one was inside. My bed was well dressed, just the way I left it. Apart from my home theatre playing and my door wide open, there was no other sign of someone’s presence in my room. I ran
to the kitchen and checked, no one. I went to my bathroom, no one. Then were is the intruder then? Could it be a ghost?? I went out and looked around and as I was about to move in, the light went off and sudden silence enshrined the whole place… My head swelled up and became so big that my head felt so heavy. I became hearing strange voices…
1st Voice: You!!!!!
2nd voice: You re so heartless… So disgusting!!!
3rd voice: You will join us now!!! We have come to take you with us!!!
All Voices:hahahahahahahhahhaahahahahahah
ahahaa!!!!!!!
If it were possible, I would ve killed myself. I was praying for the earth to open and swallow me. Then the light came again and the voices stopped laughing. I rushed in to get my bible and the light went out again. This time around I was trapped and my phone was too down to power its torch light. I made for the door and it was locked. I was already sweating down to my pants.
Then I heard another voice that resembled Kosi’s own. She was weeping.
Kosi: I never knew you were so heartless!!! You couldn’t even say a prayer for me to rest in peace.
Me: please am very very sorry! Am so sorry.
My voice was shaking and the ghosts were
taunting me with their laughter.
Kosi: You knew I was flying from Enugu to Abuja… Is that the kind of love you have for me??
There was another laughter again and everywhere went silent. Then my name was called with a thunderous voice that shake my room. Then I
heard Kosi’s voice again. It was soft…
Kosi: Wally!!
Me: Yes, please am very sorry.
Kosi: You were just there partying, forgetting that even in death, I will still not forget you… Why did you do this to me? Were you faking your love for me? Wasn’t our friendship worth it?
Me: Am very sorry….
Kosi: Turn around!!!
I did and saw someone on white, sitting on my bed. I didn’t see the person clearly and I heard a shuffle on my door, two other persons on white were standing there too…
I urinated on my pants…
