Part 21
I noticed she didn’t go with gideon, Immediately after madam’s departure,I sensed a trouble ahead. I believed madam must have informed sikirat to keep an eye on janet and I, I believed she must have left gideon at home also for same purpose. While I was in the living room, trying to round up the lesson with janet, sikirat walked in from her room and went to the dinning table to pack the plates. I looked at her and she looked back at me with a straight face.
****” I know say I don enter trouble this nite”.****
I began to reason how the night will look like, who should I sneak out to meet”. Sikirat’s unhappiness must have been caused by janet’s presence in the house. She walked away into the kitchen still looking at me. Janet caught me staring at sikirat. Out of the blue she said “I have been suspecting you and our maid of recent. That is why I stayed back tonight. I know its dangerous leaving both of you alone in this house” said janet.
****“Chaiii, I don enter am proper”****
Man must act fast ooo
Then I quickly took offence “me??, to your maid?! What is the meaning of this rubbish?, abeg leave me alone”. I stood up, left janet on the sofa and went into my room and locked it from inside. Janet called my phone several times I didn’t pick up. She came to knock but I didn’t open. Then a text came from her ” I’m so sorry love, I never meant to upset you, I was only kidding. I love you”. I saw the text and smiled.
At 11:23pm. Sikirat called me, she said I should come over or she would sneak into my room, I reminded her that janet had been suspecting us and she might catch us. I asked her what madam discussed with her before going to church but she refused to talk. She only said she will call back at 12:30. I dropped my phone and tried to sleep, a whatsapp message came in from janet and we started conversing
JANET: dear, pls I need to be in ur arms right now, I am cold and bored.
ME: so sorry dear, same thing here. but, hmmmmm
JANET: should I come over?, or will you come?
ME: sikirat is in the house with us, I don’t think its safe.
JANET: what do you mean?
ME: didn’t you noticed that your mum went inside her room before leaving?
JANET: and what does it imply?
ME: it implies that sikirat has been told to watch our movements, and I don’t want to get into trouble.
JANET: she can’t do anything, she is just a maid. If she dares report us to mum, I will implicate her and she will be sent packing.
ME: **confused on what to type next**,
ok, open your door, I will come to your room soon, I want to tidy up somethings. I was confused on what to do next. What if sikirat or gideon sees us?, what if she decided to expose everything as she threatened earlier?,. While I was thinking, sikirat called again to remind me that she will call me at midnite. This time, I was totally confused.
Watch out for part 22
