Must Read: Circle Of Three - Season 1 - Episode 41

Cassie looked at her, the absence of make-up
helping her tears to move down without
desecrating her lovely face.
“Ifeoma! Ifeoma!! Ifeoma!!! Please leave.”
“Oh, you now chase me away? Cassie, is this
about what I said now? Cassie, think twice.



Think well. Stop this show and have a grip of
yourself. I am going. I will see you later.” As she
made to leave, Cassie held her hand.
“Ifeoma, sorry now. She gave her the lost
puppy look. I don’t want you to leave. I don’t
know what will happen to me if…..”
“Nothing will happen to you jare.” She held
Cassie, her face with concern written all over. “I
would have loved to stay, but I have to go. I will
check you tomorrow.”

Ifeoma’s actions was the tonic for another bout
of weeping for Cassie.


As the night approached, she started to think
‘out of the box’. Negatively, of course. She
looked at what could have been and what is
now. Her parents are dead, she had no sibling
and her love-life just evaporated into the deep
end of the ocean. She looked at the mirror and
saw waves of water coming behind her, gaining
speed and grinning at her. She had decided on
what to do.


Tablets were littered on the kitchen table, with
one and two and three and oh so many
capsules on her hand. A glass, full of ‘death’
water was on hand to usher in her last dosage
on earth. She still looked at the water running
in the sink. Time was drifting.

As she lifted the drugs to the heavens and
opened her mouth, wishing that it ended
quickly, her hand was hit by a sweeping force
much akin to a tremor, sending the drugs to
the sink.

Death was cheated.

By Sidi.
Sidi quickly dragged her away from the kitchen
to her room, while looking at her upset.

Sidi, what’s wrong with you? How dare……..

Why are you crying?

Aunty Cassie, why you dey think like this? You
no even see me before you wan kill yourself.


Who told you I wanted to kill myself? I was
taking my drugs and you dare interrupt me?

Aunty, no vex but wetin you dey take na wetin
oyinbo call ‘overdose’. I dey hear am for
Channels the other day. Aunty, no lie to me,
