Must Read: Me And My Guys (18+)

I walked along the path leading me out of the bush.
When i was out into the open, i surveyed the road, no sign of cutlass and the macho. I gave a sigh of relieve and moved out of the bush.

I arrived home minutes later. I opened the door and went in through the corridor. The house was unusually quite. Abi guys don comot?.

I listened attentively, someone was wailing, .
I paused on my tracks. It sounded male-ish if there is a word like that.

It sounded like captains voice . I was surprise o!
“na who the shouts” i thought loudly.

What wrong, why is he wailing like that? Or his normal lame jokes? I barged open the corridor.
No soul was seen, i strolled down a bit.

I didn’t see any body. The scream came again, i followed the sounds of the voice. It led me deeper into the woods.

What a surprise i met. A distant away from me, A bush was cleared,
Lo, captain was tilling the earthen soil with a shovel.

The ground he was tilling was large and deep as his knees were hidden, maybe he wanted to bury a coffin i thought as i couldn’t grap what he intended doing with the ditch he was digging. Oboy see rhyme.

He was on boxer and singlet, he was the one wailing, screaming intervally as he dug into the earth.

Squatting by the side were vicky and ngozi, Becky rested on the back of the mango tree. Vicky used the back of her hand to wipe something from her face.
Shaking her head afterwards.

Joe’s mouth was open, he was holding his stomach, seems he was laughing. Rock? He stood, his heads bow, their lips were moving. I couldn’t hear what they were communicating, so i moved nearer

I was so so surprise at their action. Abi dem dey dig for hare? As i got nearer i could eavesdrop their communications. They were so engrossed with their actions that they couldn’t hear the rustling of the leaves and the footsteps.
“haaaa!” Becky exclaimed.

“blue die just like that?” vicky added sitting on the ground, her legs spread.

Ahhhhh! Me? Die? For where? Not the blue i know.
“captain you know say i no trust you?” rock said.
“my guy don die o i tell am o i tell am make we go o e no gree” captain wailed again. I had heard enough.
” captain na so you dey?” i said and approached them. They were all startled, Becky quickly stood up and tear a race I’ve never seen before. Infact i no run reach am the time cutlass pursue me.

Vicky followed with ngozi, shouting ‘ghost’. Rock back was pushing against the bark of the mango, he looked so tensed and was perspirating.
Joe sprinted also but fell like a man on agbada, rolling like a FIFA ball. captain? He fell into the ditch he was digging, murmuring incoherent words.

I was frightened myself. Frightened by their sudden action. I turned to rock who was now laughing. Close to tears and now laughing?

” wetin happen? Why una run? Wetin?” i asked advancing towards rock.

He laughed more.
” na captain o” he said.
