Episode 64

Quincy:

Hey, I don’t have…..

Unknown Person:

(cuts in) I don’t take chilled water so you can relax, I just need a glass of water from the tape, or you won’t allow me enter your kitchen also?

Michael Ansah:

God, I hope I’m safe behind this fridge? God please save me from these guys and I promise not to poke my nose into anyone’s issue again, I promise to be a good guy and stay in my lane to avoid any further problems from bad people like the ones in this room.

Unknown Person:

Please, where have you kept your glasses inside your kitchen because I can’t see some over here on your cabinet?

Quincy:

Let me come and help you since you won’t find it if I tell you where it is. (Walks into the kitchen and moves to a shelf close to the fridge and finds Kwaku Mike hiding behind the fridge from the bad guys)

Michael Ansah:

(almost screaming because he thinks the bad guys were the ones who had entered the kitchen) Please don’t let the bad guys see me here or else that will be the end of us.

Unknown Person:

My guy, why can’t you get the glass or I should get it myself since am taller than you.

Quincy:

Oh, don’t worry I will be able to get it, now here it is (stands in front of the place Kwaku Mike is hiding so that the bad guys won’t see him)

Unknown Person:

Hey, thanks for your time and patience, come and lock your door as we take leave and I beg you to take it easy with your woman inside there because from the way you are driving us away you might tear her beads when you get her. Anytime we pass by in this area we will check up on you.

Quincy:

Hahaha, I hear you bro, I wish you a fruitful search as you go about looking for that idiot who attacked your boss but please take it easy on him and let the law take its course by sending him to the police station for him to be prosecuted by the law.

Unknown Person 2:

(hisses at what he heard from Quincy) Mtcheeeeeeeeeeew who has got time for those people in black khaki uniform, they will release him shortly after we have left him in their custody. For me I don’t trust them so I go with the instant justice galore, I will personally deal with him in a way that he won’t forget anytime soon. I will slap him left right centre and back.

Quincy:

Ayooooo I have heard you, now go for me to lock my door because I have got any unfinished business I have inside there.

Unknown Person:

Hahahahaha, men at work.

Quincy:

So keep left for there is a road diversion ahead.

Unknown Person:

Guys, let’s go for we have a mission to accomplish and shouldn’t waste much time here we might lose our chances of getting that idiot. My guy thank you very much for everything. (They step out of the house and Quincy locks his door).

Michael Ansah:

(comes out from his hiding place and does a cross sign on his face) Ah Quincy you are a rockstar and a great actor, I will take you to Hollywood to get you a role so you act with the like of Iddris Elba and Abraham Attah. Herh, see how you were calm and you took everything so easy and simple, massa I throw salute for you, my boss.

Quincy:

Shut up over there, next time again go and throw blows that isn’t meant for you to throw, if they grabbed you like you will see how hot your body is going to be, I can’t imagine that guy in the camouflage laying his hands on you. I believe he will beat you to the extent that you will even forget your name.

Michael Ansah:

Massa, drop that one because they will never lay their hands on me on this earth.

Henrietta Barnor:

(walks out from the washroom looking all radiant and ravishing) Please is everything alright, guys? I thought I heard some voices in here?

Quincy:

Oh yes what you heard is true, some tough and criminal looking men came into this room looking for you and Kwaku Mike. They wanted to even enter into the washroom and find out who exactly was inside there but I managed to divert their actions towards entering the washroom.

Henrietta Barnor:

Oh woooow, you are such a brave guy to face those tough and rigid guys. I don’t know why they didn’t use force this time around to enter your washroom to check who was inside there and where did Mr Bukom Banku also hide that they didn’t get to see him.

Quincy:

Hahahaha Mr Bukom Banku can you please answer the question that is been addressed to you.

Michael Ansah:

Oh, I was in the kitchen waiting for them to enter the kitchen, the way I would have given them a fight erh, like they will never forget, herh, like they will regret coming over to this place even.

Quincy:

(laughing and talking at the same time) Oh yeah I trust you Mr Bukom Banku, eeeiii some people can brag. See my dear this man here, if he had the power to enter the wall in the kitchen like he will do it, when I went into the kitchen to get glass for the leader of the bad guys I saw my man hiding behind the fridge and giving me signs not to raise an alarm for the bad guys to see him. See he was scared more than a chicken who had escaped death on a 25th December.

Henrietta Barnor:

Really? So he was hiding and he is trying to play the role of Hercules, erh?

Michael Ansah:

Me I was only taking cover first, in the battlefield you must first access the strength and tactics of your enemy or opponents before you attack, for me I was only drawing plans on how to attack even before they saw me.

Quincy:

Mr attacker, brag more for me, give me more gist on your battle tactics my squadron commander.

Michael Ansah:

If they tried anything funny, erh, like you guys will clap your hands for me.

Quincy:

Oh really? See they have opened the door again.

Michael Ansah:

(tries to run back to the kitchen again to hide) My friend be careful ooo, don’t you know some jokes are very expensive? See been careful or taking care of yourself is not a sign of cowardice when it comes to a fight.

Quincy:

Ebi you dey there Kwaku Mike Sampson the strong man.

Henrietta Barnor:

Hahahahaha, you guys are very funny and you are making me enjoy your company, please can I get pomade?

Quincy:

Oh yes, please check that part of the wardrobe for the pomade and body spray, you can join me to watch television or you can go to sleep, unfortunately for you, you are going to share the bed with your bodyguard or better still Mr Bukom Banku the boxer, who accesses his opponents before attacking.

Michael Ansah:

Hey, make study before I start punching you, please I am going to shower but please help me boil water so I use it to press my wounds.

Henrietta Barnor:

Did you get yourself injured whiles you confronted Albert?

Michael Ansah:

Oh no my dear, I was involved in an accident yesterday and please Quincy drop some amount of salt in the water you boil for me.

Henrietta Barnor:

So, have you been to the hospital?

Michael Ansah:

Oh, yes I went to the hospital and the injury was stitched for me.

Henrietta Barnor:

Mmmm, then I will say it’s too early to start pressing your wounds as you stated, the wounds shouldn’t get in contact with water for now so please I would advise you rather get water, soap and towel to clean your body rather.

Michael Ansah:

Mmmmm, but I don’t know how to do that ooo?

Henrietta Barnor:

(smiles) Okay then I will do it for you, I will clean some parts of your body for you so that you go into the washroom to clean your private part.

Quincy:

Mmmm, me too I am having the same problem oh.

Michael Ansah:

Eeeeiiiii susupon people dey town, if your mother die wey you say she sleep, she go wake up for us to see.

Quincy:

What do you mean Mr man?

Michael Ansah:

I didn’t say anything ooo, I was only rehearsing the song I’m going to record soon.

Maabena Boaduwaa’s House:

On phone:

Maabena Boaduwaa:

Hey, Doris, why are you calling me at this time of the night? Is everything alright?

Doris: There is trouble on the mountain Maabena, why didn’t you compile the list the matron asked you to work on for her before you left the hospital?

Maabena Boaduwaa:

Which list are you talking about and for the matron I don’t remember even coming in contact with her the whole of last night. Are you sure this is not one of your silly jokes?

Doris:

Ah, I am not joking Maabena, why would I pick my phone and call you at this ungodly hour and play pranks on you? Come and see how the doctor is very angry and yelling at the matron, I even got part of the anger cake he was sharing.

Maabena Boaduwaa:

My dear, I’m not aware of anything and the matron didn’t give me any work or assignment to do on her behalf.

Doris:

If you say you don’t know anything about what I asked you then prepare yourself very well to meet the doctor tomorrow morning, you know how strict he is and how difficult it is to convince him sometimes. I only wanted you to know the matter on ground first so that you prepare yourself well when coming to work tomorrow morning. Let me go back to work so you also catch some sleep, good night (call ends)

Maabena Boaduwaa:

(talking to herself) Ah what is Doris talking about, is she joking or she is serious about it? I didn’t even talk to the matron or even come across her last night so what is Doris talking about? But wait ooo, Doris won’t also pick her phone at this time of the night to call me just to pull my legs or play pranks on me, whatever it is I will get to the bottom of the matter. When I get to the bridge I will know how to cross the river, whatever plan the matron has for me I will face it squarely after all I am a proud Tuesday born who fears nothing and I mean nothing.

Meanwhile, the boys of Albert have also combed every part of the area Albert gave them but they didn’t get to see anyone who fits into the description that was given to them. Now going back to break the news to him was the biggest problem they have, especially the leader of the bad guys……..

Episode 65

Unknown Person:

Senior, we are back ooo!

Albert:

Where is that fool and ungrateful bitch?

Unknown Person:

Senior, we were not able to get him ooo, we searched and combed every corner of this neighbourhood but there was no trace of that guy and your girlfriend.

Albert:

I have always known you were very incompetent like someone that I know of, you have never scored any mark on the test I give to you, always you have an excuse to give without giving any positive results.

Unknown Person:

Senior God knows that we tried our best, we even entered the rooms of some people we felt he might be hiding there but to no avail. That guy was far gone before we got here.

Albert: See mumu, how did you know that guy was gone before you got here? I don’t know why my dad has chosen to still keep you fools even though you are incompetent and he knows very well that you can’t simply do anything right. For that bitch I call my girlfriend I know what to do to her and the right time to get her.

Unknown Person 2:

Boss, so what do you want us to do now, should we continue searching for him here or we should go home.

Albert:

No, stay here and guard the area so that criminals like you won’t come and attack the area. Foolish fools!!!! (sits in his car and drives away leaving the guys behind)

Unknown Person 3:

Guys, since he has left us, let us get going because we have things doing tomorrow morning and afternoon.

Unknown Person 2:

Charlie, what you said is true, we have a major thing to do tomorrow for the boss himself.

Unknown Person:

Let us go, guys, sometimes that guy acts like he doesn’t eat fufu with soup, for me I am fed up with his attitude that one day I will tell him my mind. Does he know the time we started doing this work? Is money that chose to go to the wrong side like will a small boy of his calibre stand before me to talk and even insult me? I have to gather much money and leave this group if not one day I will do something to him that will make me regret later, guys sit down and let us go.

Back at Quincy room:

Henrietta Barnor:

Gosh, your wound is more than I anticipated, what the hell happened to you that got you badly injured like this.

Michael Ansah:

(scratching his head to get an answer which will not put him in the spotlight) Mmmm I got injured through the carelessness of that idiot sitting there.

Henrietta Barnor:

Really, do you wanna talk about that?

Michael Ansah:

Not really but we went to his father’s construction site and as we were trying to convey some metal materials up to the second floor, he mistakenly dropped it and it fell on me, unfortunately for me, it pierced my thigh and I fell off the staircase.

Henrietta Barnor:

Awwww sorry, about that my dear, so you had this wound to nurse and you still went ahead to fight Albert. So what if he hit you in the thigh or leg?

Michael Ansah:

Herh, I swear like I will kill him, like I will break his head and twist his neck.

Quincy:

See you, were you invited in their fight in the first place. Today you had a mommy’s boy to beat but tomorrow when you meet a street boy like me, you will know when you buy Ga kenkey you have to take pepper.

Michael Ansah:

My friend shut up before I pounce on you over there, aren’t you the reason why I am in this state?

Quincy:

(reading in between the lines) So how many times do I have to say I am sorry Mr Bukom Banku? You know my action was not deliberate so why have you been castigating me all this while, aren’t you the one getting VIP treatment right now?

Henrietta Barnor:

Which one is the VIP treatment Mr man?

Henrietta:

Before I forget you also said you are having a wound so prepare yourself so I clean your body for you.

Quincy:

Please ooo, I retract my statement with immediate effect, I am very well and hearty. I just said it. I’m joking.

Michael Ansah:

Please, take it easy on me wai, I am feeling the pains now in my thigh.

Quincy:

Why won’t you feel the pain since you go about fighting outside the ring Joe boxer.

Henrietta Barnor:

Oh sorry, I can see the bandage on your thigh stained with blood, you shouldn’t have engaged yourself in that fight.

Michael Ansah:

I know but I couldn’t stand the sight of you been mishandled like a piece of rag, my conscience would never allow me to be happy if I walked past you people unconcerned if I didn’t intervene on your behalf what would have been your fate by now?

Henrietta Barnor:

(talking in her head) Awwww see how caring and handsome he is, I thought men like this only existed in fictional stories and movies. How I wish he was my man like I won’t give any lady a chance to even come close to him, like I will jealously protect him like the way mother hen protects its chicks. Hey try and gather courage and propose to me and I will gladly accept your proposal even without thinking twice or allowing you to end your statement. I can’t imagine how our children will look like with such a handsome partner like you.

Michael Ansah:

(talking in his mind) Aaaaah what a beauty, see how soft her palms are? The scent of your pomade in your hair is even driving me crazy, look at her eyes and lips, the toes that even is on the ground is beautiful than someone’s face. The back of your head like someone’s face. Your legs and the hair on it is even turning me on, if you were my woman like I will adore you like how Romans adore Holy Mary. I will worship the ground your feet touches and I won’t even let a fly come close to you. The way you are pretty I can’t imagine giving birth with you Herty, like the way our children will look beautiful and handsome erh, my God!!! Your voice alone is like a music from the harp of David to King Saul. The way your white sparkling teeth has been arranged in your mouth is even is classic, I believe God took a long rest before he started work to mould you and cast you to mother Ghana. I wouldn’t mind selling my father’s house and coffin shop to raise money so I marry you. If am to choose between you and heaven like I won’t think twice to choose you because living with you will be like been in heaven. If you are a bible like I will be your preacher and if you were a religion like I will be your stench follower. I would be your rod if you were a shepherd and the only cockroach in your cupboard, because am not financially sound I can’t propose to you so it is only in my head that I can imagine and fantasize about you without getting a problem. Indeed “better soup na money kill am”, aaaaah see how heavy and round her breast look, this one I can suck all night long without getting tired or even falling asleep. This is the type of person that I can describe as a creation of God and not this man-woman ladies we come across daily. God all my life if you give me Herty, I will only ask for two more things and I will never come before you again to ask for any more favours. God, I will ask you of divine health and more money to use in making maintenance on this V12 engine machine before me.

Henrietta Barnor:

God, if you give me this man erh, I will take good care of him and help him build his empire with God as our helper, I won’t let any lady come close to him and if it is sex he wants, I will give it to him in the morning, afternoon, evening, dawn and in fact anywhere and how he wants it. Lord you know I don’t usually ask for favours so please grant me this simple request for me to be the happiest lady on earth.

Quincy:

(talking in his head) God please let this lady fall in love with my brother from another mother because I see she will be a good lover who will take very good care of him for me, they look so comparable and I know they will be happy with each other. See the way she is wiping my brother with love and affection and see the way my brother is also gazing at her with much lust and a burning desire in his eyes, he is not even blinking his eyes, I can smell and feel love in the air.

Henrietta Barnor:

I am done Mike now you can go inside and do the rest inside the washroom and Mr Quincy you are next.

Quincy:

Hahahahaha, please I am on strike with anything relating bathing. I’m feeling sleepy so I will see you guys tomorrow God willing. Safe journey to dreamland and don’t forget to put your seatbelt and helmet on.

Michael Ansah:

Nonsense, have you bought any car or motorbike for us. Rest in peace you too.

Kwaku Mike goes into the washroom to clean his private part and as he walked back into the room, he came to meet Henrietta peacefully asleep and with the way she was lying down some electric currents started passing through the veins of Kwaku Mike and the power in his boxer started increasing. He ignored that feeling and went to drink chilled water in the kitchen before joining Henrietta in the bed.

After a while, Henrietta wrapped her hand around Kwaku Mike which made him wake up. His heart started beating fast and he could hear the sound of his heartbeat in the quiet room and through the little light in the room he could see the pretty face of Henrietta sleeping and smiling to herself, he in return wrapped his hands also on her and closed his eyes to sleep with the wish that someday he will have her in her arms and bed forever but around midnight something happened…………….

Is what Kwaku Mike and Henrietta feeling for each other lust or love?

Do you think Maabena can continue keeping the secret forever?

Is Quincy a good friend?

Is Kwaku Mike even safe as at now?
