I slept there over the night to continue my journey in the morning. From where i found myself, i had nowhere to go, where i am i dont even know. I trekked down the lonely road not knowing where i was headed. After walking tiredlessly for an hour, i decided to rest a bit before continue my journey. I saw a pawpaw tree which i plucked from ate and sleep. After waking up i continued my journey to an unknown destination, after i had walked for another hour. I met a Lexus jeep, i had a little hope that at least there is light at the end of the end of the tunnel. After waiting for like thirty minutes a woman in her early forties and a lady walked up to the car. I rushed to the woman asking for help. The woman looked at me from head to toe then looked over to the lady. She asked me what i was doing in such a lonely road. Before i could respond the lady interupted and asked us leave that vicinity immediately. The woman asked me to follow her and we left immediately. When we got to the main road, she parked car then turned to me and asked me what i was doing there at that point in time. I explained everything to her in tears from the beginning to the end. She looked at me in pity and asked me what i want to do. I told her i want to go home. She said it is not possible because the death of my father is all over the news and he was the only one found in the house, my mom and sister where nowhere to be found so going back home is not possible. She asked if i will follow her to her house to which i nodded a yes. The drive to her house was a silent one, she later introduced herself as Mrs Collins. When we got to her house, i was ushered in where i was introduced to her two daughters, Tania who is 14 yrs old and her elder sister Tina 16 yrs old.
Mrs Collins POV
When i met this young boy today, i was dumbstruck at his resemblance with Kingsley Davis. Kingsley was actually my first love, we met in our university days, he had promise to marry me but we were undone because our blood group was not compatible. Even with that he was still hell bent on marrying me. I had to break all forms of communication with him and travel out of the county. When i asked the boy and he told me his story i was sad, i had actually saw the news early this morning. I will take care of AJ i said in my mind, if that is the only thing i can do for Kingsley, i will gladly do it.
Continued From AJ’s POV
After Mrs Collins introduced me to her daughthers as AJ them i will be living with them. After the introductions she told us she had to get somewhere. When she left I was shown the guestroom, i went in, had my bath, wore the same cloth i was wearing and slept off. I had not slept for 30 minutes when i heard a faint knock on the door. I went to the door only to find Tania holding a nylon bag, after the greetings she handed over the nylon to me, told me to come for lunch and left immediately. I opened the nylon and found some clothes which i wore and went for lunch. I met mrs collins, tina and tania in the sitting room, I met my food on the dinning. I ate, took the plate to the kitchen and made for my room. Mrs Collins called me back and told me to sit with them in the living room that am now part of the family. I told her i needed to rest, on hearing that Tina spoke up and said i can rest later. Mrs Collins told me we needed to talk, i became scared because i dont know what she has in mind.
