Must Read: Me And My Guys (18+)

Hours Later
My head was still clouded from the effect of
the drugs and alomo when I slept off.

I had a dream, mrs sandra’s husband got me
locked up in a cell.

10 am, I woke up with a banging headache
and a terrible waist pain.

Evelyn had gone, i stood up and went in
search of her. The parlour was empty, so was
the bedroom. I didnt see joe. Where went him?

I slept that long.

I called his number, he picked at the second
ring.
“afa where una there na” i asked.
“man on fire man on fire” he hailed from the other side.

Did i tell you why my friends call
me that? That a story for another day.
“talk na where you there?”
“man on fire i bin go drop the girls for pack

“when them go?”
“since 6am.”
“why you no call me? You don free me
akpugo?(money)”
“yes, i take am from that envelope wey dey

Ehhhhh? Joe, he can smell money from afar.
How he knew the was money in the bag, is a
mystery for me.

I paused.
“blue….blue no vex na i bin no wan wake you up abeg”

forgetting about my money. This guy no dey

“okay na make i push dem don come arrive”
“shey you don share your property first? Na

“back to sender… Evelyn don keep im number,

hailed and hang up.

After the call i went about my normal
activities, took my bath and got prepared for
the meeting with mrs sandra.

When i was through with all, i took my bag to
check how much money was left in the
envelope. I planned buying some foodstuff in
the market.

I met a shock, I met a dry and empty
envelope.
