*BLACK FRIDAY* 🖤
EPISODE FIVE
After a while Annabel c@m£ back but I pretended I was fast asleep and she left.
I knew she would be sad about the whole situation but I have no money and no where to go.
The next day I quic-kly wake up and I went to the police station to file for missing persons report and gave them my ph0togra-ph, after I left there I want to the a nearby TV station and told then to displ@ymy pictures on TV just incase someone would recognize me . I was so happy they helped me, I also gave Annabel’s number and told them if they have any information they should call her.
That day was stressful too, I almost missed my way home.
When I got home Annabel was sitting down ii the living room frowning. ..
I greeted her but she didn’t answer me.
Where have been ?? you got me so worried, you know you’re still recovering. ..she said
Am so sorry I didn’t tell you, I went to the police station and TV station to help me out, if there is anyone who would recognise me out there.
Oh dear don’t worry you will recover and remember soon, everything will fall in place. Let me get your food. She said.
No don’t worry I will get it myself, just tell where it is, I said.
Hmmm you will not know where it is, she said smiling. .
After sometime she bought my food and i ate and fell asleep on the couch.
Annabel told me earlier that she was going to the office. Suddenly I heard a knock at the door.
I woke up and went to open the door.
Its Annabel’s b©yfri£nd,James
What are you still doing here? ??
He said angrily.
Suddenly I saw him with some bags and a Lady walked in with him.
She didn’t even greet me but I didn’t seem to care, she took the bag upstairs to an Empty room.
She is no around I replied him’
I didn’t come to see her, its you I c@m£ see. I know she went to work unlike you who is jobless he said.
He sat down..
Who is she? ? I asked
She is Annabel cousin, she just c@m£ back from the UK ,he said.
But I smell something fishy the way he was starring at her while she was climbing the stairs.
Now back to us. ..
I don’t care if you don’t have anywhere to stay, just pack out. ..,Our lives was better before you c@m£, my girlfriend has never quarreled with me or disobeyed me but since you c@m£, she doesn’t listen to you anymore. So plea-se I am talking to you man to man, plea-se look for a place to stay, a h0tel or something till you recover.
As he was talking I didn’t say a word , Annabel cousin come downstairs and was looking at me. .
My name is Jacinta and you?? She said stretching her hand towards me for a handshake.
Don’t bother he doesn’t remember his name, James said. ..holding Jacinta’s hand and they were looking at each other.
Oh really. .but I have to call you something, ok I will call you Joseph. ..because you look so cute she said starring at me from head to toe.
This one Cute. ..plea-se let me get you something to drink , James said , he was feeling Jealous all of a sudden. ..but why I said to myself.
They were just talking, catching up on old times and I left them to my room.
Later in the evening, I decided to go to the balcony upstairs.
I met James and Jacinta in an unusual position, She was sitting on his l@ps as soon as they saw me they adjusted and changed their conversion. But I noticed anyway and pretended I didn’t see them.
After some hours, Annabel was back from work.
I was so happy when I heard her voice, I have really missed her during the day, she is such an Amazing woman.
After she welcomed her cousin and talked to them she asked about me.

She didn’t even care about what he said she quic-kly c@m£ upstairs to my room.

EPISODE SIX
Soon it was day break alre-ady I decided to go out and look for a p@rt- time Job since Annabel has gone to work. I didn’t know the area very well, I just kept asking people for directions and looking out for a sign post for vacancy as Annabel told me to do because I had discussed with her earlier.
After a long walk, I saw a sign post at a warehouse which they wrote looking for a sto-re keeper . I just entered and they told me to wait that manager hasn’t come to work yet’.
I noticed they sell drinks and beverages in wholesale, its a big warehouse. I prayed that I would be given the opportunity to work there, am tried of sitting at home doing nothing.
After a while the manager c@m£, he seems to know me, he was looking at me like a ghost.
Alex, Alex, is this you??,
He sprinkle sand a me and t©uçh me, I was just mopping at him, I didn’t know what to say because I don’t remember him.
Why are you not responding , don’t you recognize me?? He asked.
No I don’t, I replied
come lets talk in my office, he said.
I followed him to his office, upstairs.
He offered me a sit as we entered the office.
You mean you don’t know me? ? He asked me again.
I had a fatal accident which almost took my life ,when i woke up ,i couldn’t remember anything ….I said
Oh so sorry about that, you had a painful experience that Friday am very sure you wished you never remembered.
Who are you sir and how did you know me??
Well I was your neighbor who was with you on phone all throu-gh that Friday.
He explained everything I experienced that day, how I lost my wife and baby too, I wept but I still didn’t remember what happened, he told me my father in-law *c@m£ to park all my belonging from the house . Everyone thought I had died, Since they couldn’t find me and they heard a rumour that I had an Accident* and I was dead.
Hmm it was really a sad story and sad day for me. He gave me the number and Address of my father in-law.
My neighbor *offered to help me, he took me to one of their br@nches close to my house, I was so happy. .he* made me their new manager and guided me on what to do. My neighbor was to helpful, may God bless him real Good.
I quic-kly went to see my father in-law as soon as I left my new place of work. My Father in-law was in tears when he saw me, he thought I had die, since I was an Orphan, he didn’t know what to do when he heard the news about my accident, he looked for me but to no avail, I could tell he really loved me so much from the way he shed those tears looking at me and praising God , he told me where my wife was buried ,that i should visit her anytime i choose , he prayed for me that i will find someone who will love and stay with me, i told him about Annabel and he promised to visit us over the weekend after a while I left his place for home.
I was so excited on my way home but I still thought of what he told me about my wife and son so I bec@m£ sad again and the most painful p@rt I can’t remember them.
But I had hope that things will get better and I couldn’t wait to tell Annabel everything I experience today.
As soon as I got home, i noticed the door was locked from inside ,so I pas-sed throu-gh the kitchen back door since I had the key, I noticed everywhere was so quiet but I heard some disturbing noise from Annabel’s room, I quic-kly rushed there only to find James and Jacinta shagging.
They were so carried away that they never noticed me, I quic-kly went outside the same way I c@m£ .
