THE SPIRIT**
EPISODE [4]

I cracked my head searching for a good
river but couldn’t remember any. In
desperation i thought of
other alternatives. “A good bush will do” i concluded as i
remembered a very large bush, four
hostels behind mine. The bush really was
at the end of the street. A yet to be
developed
plot. But i was very unsure of the best time to
head to the place. I knew there wasn’t a
way i could go
there without being seen by many
students and my movement might
draw suspicion due to the sack bag in my possession and if eventually Nneka’s
body is found, tongues may talk and
i could be caught. I reasoned.
“The only solution was to head out of the
school enviroschool environment
with my load perhaps towards the small mechanic village which was fifty naira
bus drop away from my
lodge, find a good refuse dump site and
dispose everything” .
***
Luckily her body wasn’t discovered that morning and so by 7:45am, i smashed her
phone sim and
memory card wrapped the debris in a
small nylon before flinging it with small nylon before flinging it with the
phone back into the sack bag. Soon after
I left the lodge with my load and headed towards
mechanic village nervous, shaken but
determined.
It was very easy to find a burning refuse
dump site when I got there. I quickly
disposed everything and headed back to my lodge a bit relieved.
All that was left was to sit and wait for
the poor girl to be discovered.
I kept to myself, acting cool and trying
hard not to behave in a way that could
draw suspicion. It wasn’t easy, i couldn’t eat, sleep nor do anything. I was
conscious of
everything, plus i began seeing things.
Strange weird things.
Perhaps it was my imagination, perhaps it
was guilt and fear but i truly wasn’t myself anymore. I didn’t kill the girl but i
wronged her spirit. I felt she was
everywhere i went, staring at me with her
dark eyes.
***
Then she was discovered…………… An early monday cry from one of the
cleaners ripped the whole lodge apart as
she screamed loud.
