π«π My Boss Next Door EPISODE SIX: π€·
I called Tayo, my stranger friend, to tell him what transpired and how it didn’t work as expected.
He advised and encouraged me to pray and hope for the better.
I couldn’t hold my tears, I thought of commiting suicide every 2 seconds.
“My world was crumbling. How could I have made such mistakes, why didn’t it occur to me that Angela was behind this”.
” Why did I allow myself to be carried away by empty threats”.
” Why did I not report her ever since “?
I bombarded myself with rhetorical questions, I cried out to my satisfaction and even needed more.
But my tears couldn’t do anything, rather it caused fever and migraines on me.
I thought of going to strangle Angela with my bare hands, but I didn’t have the powers, even if I did, I didn’t want to have issues with anyone.
I liked minding my business and avoiding troubles.
**. Angela called again to begin her threats, this time I helped her to complete her words.
I repeated her threats for me words for words.
I insulted the leaving day light out of her life.
I made sure I rained heavily on her before hanging up.
I wasn’t still satisfied because I had lost my job because of her, and there was nothing I could do to meet up to that.
I was fully ready for what ever she was going to conjure.
I beat my chest so hard not to be afraid of Angela and her likes.
My mind boiled to some degrees.
I stood up and walked round the house like a mad woman.
I was going insane, I needed someone to explain what had just happened to my life.
I thought of texting my boss and apologizing to him, but it was too late.
I started calling my manager, begging him to talk to my boss.
He kept pitying me instead., he didn’t give me any valid response to hope on.
I went down on my knees but words of prayers disappeared from my mouth.
My mouth was dried and my lips kept shaking as I couldn’t remember what to pray for.
I rolled on the floor of my house and sleep carried me.
I slept and woke up very late in the night.
I blindly searched for my phone in the dark room as I didn’t turn on the bulbs earlier.

**. Tayo,my stranger friend was the only hope at the moment, as I had neither family member nor friends.
**. I invited Tayo to my house and it was the best decision.
Tayo would close from work and come to my house in the evening.
Sometimes sleeps over at my place, and sometimes goes home.
*****************************
Tayo owned a mechanic shop and he was making money from his dirty job.
Most of the time, I looked down on him because I couldn’t imagine myself with a mechanic, but he was just the best.
He provided literally everything for me and promised to help with part of my rent when the year ends.
He went out in search of a job for me. He asked his friends who had connections, tho nothing came up, but Tayo was the best of it kind.
I enjoyed every bit of his company and never regretted accepting him to my life.
Tayo developed feelings for me, but sincerely I didn’t like him.
I loved everything about him, but he was not just my type of guy.
I kept turning down his advances, yet he didn’t give up.
He never got tired of introducing me as his girlfriend to his friends, and sometimes it brought issues between us.
**. Asking for forgiveness and constantly forgiving is one thing nature gave him pricelessly.

**. A week later, Caleb appeared in my house unannounced as usual, with goodies in a white paper bag.
I was surprised to see him, after distancing from me for a week.
He made it known to me that he traveled and had just returned.
He handed me the bag and I gladly accepted it.
He asked why I wasn’t at work and I explained what happened to him.
He reacted sadly and suddenly left.
**. **. **. **. **. **
The next day, I got a call from my manager, that I should resume work fully.
I was so happy and my Joy knew no bounds.
I called Tayo and broke the news to him and he was so happy to hear that.
I then reached out to Caleb to inform him, but his reactions got me concerned.
When I told him about my boss’s decision to take me back, he replied with “oh that?, not a problem”.
I became more concerned, as to if Caleb had any connections with my boss or probably related to him. But I let it lie.
**. **. **. **. **. **.
I resumed work the next day a bit nervous.
I got to my desk and stayed all through, fully waiting for Angela’s rough threats and ironic words.
No trace of her was seen in the office.
**. I stepped out to ask Liberty about Angela.
Liberty smiled and said “she has been sacked”.
“Sacked how? What happened”. I asked pretending to care.
“It’s like you don’t value yourself and your Job”. Liberty said fuming up as he hissed at me and walked away.
” As if I care, I said laughing inwardly.
**.. minutes later, my manager called for a general meeting and everyone assembled.
**. **.
“Good morning everyone”.
This is a very important issue and I will go straight to the point”.
“We all have witnessed what had just happened between Angela and Deborah”.
” I want to let each and everyone of you know that, such an awful act can never repeat itself again.
” Not from the higher authorities or the common staff”.
” If anyone by any means harasses you, and you fail to let us know and address such issues with immediate effects, this grace won’t be made available again”. Deborah I’m referring to you particularly. The manager said pointing at me.
” And not by any reason should anyone discuss personal issues while at work, it is only work related issues that must be discussed”. He added
**. **. **. **.
” Hmh hmh”. Good day everyone, as the manager rightly said. My boss said standing to his feet.
” Such acts will not be condoned here, we don’t care to know if it’s a joke or seriousness”.
” And as for Angela, she is in the police custody and can only be granted a bell with the help of the CEO of this company. My boss said hitting the desk.
**** It was then down on me that “my boss was not actually my boss”, he was not the CEO of the company as I thought”.
” He only represented, as the acting “CEO”.
But who the CEO actually was, still remained a mystery to me.
**. The meeting continued and the manager broke the news of my promotion”. From a ” Cashier to an assistant Manager”,which was Angela’s position before she was sacked.
I was not just promoted but with a huge increment in my pay.
My Joy knew no boundaries, I jumped for joy that I hugged my manager unknowingly.
Everyone was happy for me as well.
I told myself I was going to sit up this time, I will do the needful when necessary.
I became a big girl with a twinkle of an eye.
I didn’t know if I was to regret what I did or be happy about it.
**. **. **.
I was still rejoicing about my promotion when the thoughts of Angela’s return struck my mind.
I went cold immediately, I started thinking of how Angela will handle my life when she is out.
Even as I was fully ready for her, deep down, I knew I couldn’t hurt a fly.
I can’t even bully or threaten one with a gun.
I saw the end of my life written plain in my palms.
I regretted ever associating with Angela.
But I made a promise to myself, that I was not going to lay low to anyone to destroy my life.
I will make sure I stand up against Angela until she withdraws.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Days later, Angela was released from the cell.
The news got to me and I almost got a stroke in my head, as I centred my thoughts on Angela’s evil agendas.
**. True to my words, Angela visited my house two days after she was released.
This time around she came with her gang.
The heavy ladies bounced on me and tied me up with a rope and flogged life out of me.
They poured me hot water, mixed with red pepper.
They rolled me on the floor and gave me all sorts of punishments.
**. Tayo kept calling my line severally, and as I couldn’t pick up, he got worried and hurried down to my place.
He bounced hard on the door but, nobody opened.
Instead Angela and her gangs divided themselves and hid in the room, leaving me tied down on the cold tiles.
Tayo went back home disappointed, still trying my line but to no avail.
Immediately Tayo left, Angela and her gang untied me, and promised to take me to the land of no return if I dare her for more time.
I lay down on the cold floor weak and exhausted, after some minutes,Tayo appeared with his working tools, trying to break the door with force, but the door opened, and almost capsized him to the floor.
Tayo ran to me in shock and asked what happened, I stared at him with my eyes almost closing as I couldn’t say a word.
He quickly booked an Uber and rushed me to the hospital.
**********************
After being attended to, I regained consciousness and narrated what happened.
Tayo reached out to the police immediately and Angela and her gang were declared wanted.
I was relieved, thinking that was the end, not knowing that I had brought a cross I couldn’t carry upon myself.
