Midnight Stories – Untruth ( Episode 3)
I stalled. I was in my room for about an hour more , he’s just a driver. There’s nothing he can do right? Or so I thought. I heard a knock ,
Segun went to open. A huge man stepped right in ( I think being huge is a criterion for Miss William’s recruitment) . He said to me with a very deep voice ” Stand up and let’s go right now ” . I followed without hesitation. I was in for it.
.
When we got to the house. Miss Williams welcomed me with a huge smile and a warm hug. I felt like slapping her white teeth out of her sinful mouth as she apologized to me for the other day. She said ‘ Matthew , all you have to do is cooperate and you’ll enjoy our relationship ‘ . I concurred. As I walked into that room again , I remembered my Mom’s warning but I ignored it. I didn’t need viagra this time , neither did I need a gun for motivation. I did it without remorse or guilt. But as I finished , teardrops came out of Aminat’s eyes and I could feel her soul scream. The endless pain and trauma this girl has been through. Damn. I got dressed and went out of the room. Before I got home , I got an alert of 120 k. Wow ! Account balance – 210k in just 2 visits. This is good! I had another appointment in 2 days. My mother’s warning didn’t leave my head throughout the 2 days. I waited and waited for something evil to happen but nothing happened. Tsww , that warning was fake biko. So I went for the next appointment.
.
I slept with Aminat twice a week for 3 consecutive weeks and within one month , I already made 600k. I was actually loving this!
The fourth week , instead of going straight to the bedroom . Miss Williams sat me down to have a chat with me in the living room .
.
Miss Williams : Matthew Dear , Congratulations .
.
Me : For what Sandra ?
.
Miss Williams : You have gotten Aminat pregnant . She missed her last period and the tests are positive.
.
I really didn’t know what to say. I just kept saying ‘ Wow ‘ . Then she continued
.
Miss Williams : Its a big feat in my opinion. Two men have tried before you , including your friend Maurice . None of them could get the Job done . (Smiling ) You are a sharpshooter my dear .
.
Me : So I am going to be a Father ? Where is Aminat now ?
.
Miss Williams : No , you’re not going to be a Father . The baby is not your responsibility ok? And where Aminat is is also not your concern . You did a good job and you’ll be rewarded.
.
Me : Ok Sandra
(I couldn’t believe I was doing this. I fathered a child and I am willing to ignore it all because of money . Wtf have I turned into )
.
Miss Williams : Good. You can go now. I will send you something later today.
_
I left and before I got home. I got an alert of 250 k . I was happy af! So I went straight to the atm , withdrew 100 k and and I called my gf. She picked up
.
Christy : Babe , how are you?
.
Me : I’m fine , what are you doing?
.
Christy : I’m waiting on Sade , I wana go make my hair.
.
Me : Hmm , can you postpone that?
.
Christy : Why nah? I can come and sleep over when I’m done jarey. I have been using wig for the past 3 weeks
.
Me : hehe , I want to take you out jor. On the Island and when we are done , we’ll lodge.
.
Christy – ( Sounding excited ) Really?
.
Me : Yes babe.
.
Christy : Oya wait , let me call Sade that I’m leaving .
.
Me : Ok babe.
.
Christy : Wait wait o , I must go to church tommorow o! I have one important Exco meeting and you must follow me to church sef . I have been inviting you to come again since all these days. So take your church clothes.
.
Me : Babe , I’ve heard you. Just dress up and come early.
.
Christy : Hehe , ok. Bye. I’m coming.
_
So I had fun with my girl that Saturday . And great sex in a premium hotel room. She woke me up early to dress for church though. Ahh! I couldn’t say No because I already promised.
.
.
We got to church , we sat down . Service started .Praise and worship- lit . Word of God was great too. Its been able 7 months since I last came to this church. Everything has changed. I was trying so hard to concentrate when Christy started tapping me and whispering.
.
Christy : (Whispering) Babe , that’s the woman I told you about that I look up to in church. ( Stylishly pointing at the Altar ) .
.
Me : Where nah ? Which woman ?
.
I was trying so hard to see who she was talking about .
.
Christy : That old woman that is unmarried and a philanthropist. Why do you always forget things like this? !! The deaconess that gave me 50k that time they stole my school fees in the hostel.
.
Me : Oh , ok . Oya , where is she now?
.
Christy : Look to the right hand side of the Altar . Where the elders are sitting.
.
I think you can all guess who Christy was talking about and I am as shocked as you are. I fucking saw Miss Williams sitting on the Altar of God looking so holy and without blemish. My heart wanted to cut!! I needed to confirm so I asked.
.
Me : Babe , Please what is her name ?
.
Christy : She likes to feel young so she requested that everyone calls her Aunty Sandra.
.
Ye!!! Sandra Williams . She is the one! Oh my God! Now this is fucked. Cause so many things are adding up.
_
During a period of 6 months . 3 girls have gotten missing in the church. 3 teenagers! Including a cousin to Christy. They have searched for them everywhere to no avail. This is around the same period Maurice met Miss Williams. So she has apparently been the one behind the disappearances. This is seriously fucked. She gives the church shitload of money from what Christy told me. Who would suspect her?
.
What tf was I to do now? If I tell Christy about the whole thing , she will take it to the head. If I report to the police , the whole issue will be investigated and will bite me in the ass. But that little girl’s parents know me well and have been super nice to me. Damn! I looked at her again and she looked so innocent like she’s never hurt a living soul. Suddenly , she turned her face and we made eye contact. She was shocked too but she suddenly smiled at me and returned to look at the pastor making announcements. This is fucked !
