Me: okay bye.
She cut the call but i must say she’s kinda strange, seems like shes one of the lost girls. I removed my pot from fire and entered the house and locked my door, i entered bed and pray for God guidianc
i wokeup in a big forest tied with rope with a big tree everywhere is bright with nobody around, all i hear is the sound of birds, i looked at my right and saw a running water, i looked my left i saw a desert, i dont know where i am but i know say na bad place, the kind rope wey them take tie me be like sacrificial rope with red colours, i was rub with white chalk all over my body and cowries on my head, now this is really strange.
I didn’t know what to do so i started shouting for help, i shouted and shouted and shouted and shouted but nobody answered, after like two hours of waiting the running water started boiling like kettle wey them put for fire, the river they rise then suddenly somebody started rising from the water, what came out of the river was a small baby like six years, she has hairs all over her body like me, and she have a golden hair just like the golden chain Adanna gave me, she wore cowries all over her body.
I was scared like hell because i never see this kind thing before, she walked to me and say.
Girl: hello daddy.
I was surprised, why is she calling me daddy? I looked at her face well and i must confess there is a resemblance.
Girl: dont be afraid am your daughter and am here to deliver you to mummy.
Me: whiiiiiiich mumumumy (i stammmere).
Girl: Adanna my mother.
When she mention that name my heart skipped to my mouth.
Me: who are you.
Girl: am your daughter and you are going to help me bring my mother back, thats why we need you (now I have heard that we need you before somewhere)
Then i started crying, i mean heavy cry suddenly, she blowed breeze from her mouth and the rope on my body cut at once, she held me by my right hand and took me inside the river ( i was following her and i dont know why)
