IN The DARK (A Story Of Love, Betrayal And Survival) - Season 1 - Episode 54

That very day my mom told me my father’s
name, he was a popular politician.

According to research he was once a
commissioner before he became a governor
for eight years, after which he became a
senator and he was campaigning for the
presidential sit. I looked at his internet
picture and i could not argue the
resemblance. I grew hatred for him and I
was determined never to forgive him. I
continued to hustle hard until one fateful
day. ################## My mom
called me at work early that Monday
morning. She told me to come home
immediately. I became worried thinking she
was sick again. I quickly took an excuse
from work and went home. I was surprised
to see my mom healthy when i got home.
Immediately i got in, she turned me around
and asked if i was fine. I told her i was
completely fine and she breathe a sigh of
relief. I then asked her what the problem
was, with a worried face she said “I think he
is after us ” I did not understand what she
ment, so i asked her who?. “Your father, my
boss. I think he has been spying on us”. At
first it was all like a movie to me because it
was difficult to believe. “How can someone
lost track on us for the past twenty years
and he comes out from nowhere now?” I
asked my mom. She did not reply, she only
paced up and down our small livingroom. “I
noticed a man following since last week, he
is always on black and whenever i am not
looking at him, he makes phone call. My
instinct is telling me he is a spy from your
father. Has anybody been following you
too?” my mom said, breaking the silence. I
told her no and she held my hand. My mom
pleaded with me to leave Ilorin with her in
order to be safe. I was not ready to play
hide and seek game and with the amount in
my account and our total life savings, i knew
it would be difficult to start up a new life
anywhere in the country. I strongly refused
my mom suggestion and told her i was
ready for the worst. My mom’s further
pleading made me agree with her but on
the condition that we would leave after the
month end because i needed to finish the
month work for my salary. My mom agreed
and told me to be safe. I returned back to
work and we started living our everyday life
with the fear of been spy on. A week later i
also noticed a huge guy on black shade
following me on my way to work. At first i
thought it was just a coincidence but when
he took every route i took, i knew he was
after me. I doubled my step and rushed into
my working place. Thinking he would not
hurt me in the mist of people. After work, i
noticed the same guy was following me.

I increased my pace and he did the same,
before i knew it i was practically running to
my house. I locked the door behind me
immediately and informed my mom of what
happened. She immediately became scared
and she decided we should leave the town
the following morning. I could not object to
her suggestion so i started to pack our bags
and was ready to leave the town i lived all
my life. ¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
