Dirty Hustler - Season 1 - Episode 2

☆☆☆☆☆

Broda had told the Ape that we had come all the way from Ghana to live and work in Enugu.
He complained to him that he was only my brother and he had no right to give my hand out in marriage.

Broda insisted that our parents and at least two other close members of our family should be present to witness the affair. He taxed the Ape to pay the sum of 200,000 naira.

The Ape agreed and promised Broda he would give us the money in cash before the week runs out.

The plan made me paranoid. Broda had never demanded for such a huge sum from any of our clients. The highest amount we had ever made from our schemes wasn’t even up to 50,000 naira.

“Broda..Broda…” I tapped him gently to wake from his sleep.

“Oh God! Wetin?!” He grumbled.
“I nor fit sleep…I dey reason something.”
“Ogun dey kill you? You no see say I dey sleep? Which kind wahala be this?” He hissed then turned to face the wall. He began snoring.

I didn’t want to probe further he could slap or punch me. I sighed and rubbed my sore nipples which had s----d for hours before he fell asleep.

I tried to close my eyes to sleep but the room was too hot. I was stark naked but I still felt hot. I cursed the greedy landlord for building the room with only a small window which faced the brick fence that prevented fresh breeze from flowing in.

I thought of the Ape who was about to lose 200,000 naira in this harsh economy. The fool had a wife with four kids, I was so sure he was stingy to his family. I felt sorry for his wife. Broda and I were doing her a favour by teaching her randy husband a lesson though, the money was a reward for a job well done. I laughed.


I thought of things I would buy with my share of the money. Broda promised to give me 50,000 naira from it. I had to send 10,000 naira to Mama and Nkiru my younger sister.
I would use the rest to buy human hair wigs and beautiful clothes with matching shoes and bags.

When I visit Mama, my neighbours would then believe I had really travelled to the United states of America.

I smiled and dozed off.
