I gave him 85k, I handed all the money over to him, I told him to look for the house in one week,which he promised me to do so.. tunde left in search of the house,but throu-gh out that week tunde never returned.
Hope it’s not what am thinking?? I waited till the upper day he never showed up i was now week and was asking my self questions.

* Is tunde ok?

*have he been attacked my arm robbers

*or may he’s run away with my money

Oh God help me

The week was hell to me,sara and yvonne choose to do anything they like and treat me as if am nothing, tunde on the other hand have runaway with my money..
I don’t even know if he is alive.
One morning i woke up very weak and sick, I can hear someone shouting in the sitting room,but I don’t know who it was.. Until the voice was coming closer.. It was yvonne, she was shouting approaching towards my room With sara. She pushed my door.

Yvonne : *with anger* Nick where is my money?

Me : *surprised* what money?

Yvonne : the one i kept un-der the rug in the sitting room,because you always clean the sitting room

Me : (stood up from my be-d) I’m not with your money,go and look for it or have ask the guys that sle-pt over here yesterday?

As i was about stepping one foot out,yvonne dragged my hand to my greatest surprise she sl@pped me and told me “WE SHALL SEE”
I couldn’t say anything that moment,it was only tears i noticed rolling down my eyes.
Oh Lord why is my life like this,I cried it out and then decide to leave the house with immediate effect,I don’t know where i was gonna go but i believe something great out there is waiting for me.
