a drum beat in the Village Square Toba nodded her head moving like a lizard on a hot rock I won't mama she promised but her mind was already elsewhere the morning chor were done and Toba dressed in her neat clothes she tied her scarf carefully waved her mother goodbye and walked out into the bright day her steps were quick and light like a bird hopping to Freedom at school Toba met her two best friends Amma and AD Doja they stood out like peacocks in a flock of hens dressed as if they were going to a

grand festival Amma wore a bright dress while ad doa's skirt sparkled like the stars Toba you're looking fresh this morning Amma said laughing yes fresh like Morning Dew ad DOA added her smile as wide as the river the three friends stood together laughing and talking unaware that the day was about to take a turn darker than the bottom of a clay pot have you heard Amma said her eyes sparkling like sunlight on water classes have been canceled until next year ah so my transport fair today was wasted Toba sigh shaking her head don't mind them

ad DOA said with a grin but don't worry we won't let the day go to waste toba's brow farrowed what do you mean we're going to a party Amma announced her hands clapping together with excitement a small one nothing serious come with us Toba Toba froze her mother's warning ringing in her ears like the sound of a warning gong I can't she said shaking her head I need to study I can't just waste my time Amma rolled her eyes and adja leaned closer her voice soft and teasing it's just a small party Toba no harm

will come come on we'll just dance eat and come back don't be boring no I can't Toba started but her friends Cut Her Off ah ah Toba are you now a grandmother live a little Amma said laughing okay okay Toba finally agreed her voice low like a beaten drum but only for a little while not long after the sound of loud music filled the air Dany ad doa's boyfriend arrived in a shiny Car the music booming like thunder Raji and faji his friends were with him their grins wide and confident let's go girls Danny called

out his voice full of excitement the girls climbed into the car their laughter Rising like birds into the sky Toba sat quietly her heart uneasy but her friend's Joy was infectious the car sped off the music loud and the mood high as they headed toward what they thought would be a night of fun the house was full of Life music blasting like the beating of drums during a festival laughter and cheers filled the air as people danced in peirs their bodies swaying like trees in the wind Toba shy at first soon found herself dancing with

faji while Amma was paired with Raji and AD Doja with Dany the friends laughed and danced their Joy bubbling over like Palm wine in a full Calabash after a while Danny clapped his hands to get everyone's attention friends it's time for a special treat I have something planned just for us he said with a grin that didn't quite reach his eyes excitement rippled through the group as Dany LED them outside the girls giggling and curious followed as he drove them to a nearby Hotel the table was already set with plates of steaming food and bottles

of drink shining under the soft Light Eat My Queens Danny said with a flourish pulling out chairs for the girls the girls ate and drank their laughter echoing through the room like The Melody of a happy song Meanwhile far away Mama Toba sat in her Market stall her heart heavy like a sack of stones Toba should have been back by now she tried to call her but the phone rang and rang with no answer why won't she pick up mama Toba muttered her palms sweaty as she dialed again her spirit was Restless like the wind

before a storm back at the hotel toba's phone buzzed on the table unnoticed in the noise and excitement she didn't hear it the music was too loud and the night too enchanting but suddenly the enchantment began to fade toba's head felt heavy like someone had poured sand into it her vision blurred and her legs wobbled she grabbed the edge of the table but the room spun faster and faster Arma slumped first then ad DOA Toba fought to stay awake but her strength gave way and darkness swallowed her whole when Toba woke up she was no

longer in the hotel the air was cold and smelled of damp Earth she looked around and saw cracked walls and broken windows they were in an uncompleted building deep in the middle of nowhere her hands and legs were tied with thick ropes she turned her head and saw Arma and adya beside her also tied and unconscious fear gripped her heart like the claws of a wild beast where where are we she whispered her voice trembling like leaves in the hamatan breeze wake up Toba whispered urgently nudging them with her elbow her voice trembled like dry

leaves in the hamatan wind the girls stirred slowly their eyes wide with fear as they took in their surroundings in front of them stood Dany Raji and faji their cheerful faces replaced with cold emotionless stairs behind them an old man emerged from the Shadows his presence filled the room like smoke choking and oppressive he held knives of different shapes and sizes their blades gleaming in the dim light beside him was a calabash empty but waiting do not shout Dany warned his voice low and dangerous Toba and her friends began to cry the tears falling like

rain as They begged for mercy but the C didn't Flinch the old man's eyes burned like fire as he stepped closer the air thick with the promise of evil the room was silent except for the dripping sound of water from the ceiling the old man stood tall his eyes sharp like the blade of a hunter's machete his voice deep and strange echoed in the darkness pick a knife he commanded holding out the gleaming weapons anyone who refuses will be flogged until their skin peels like yam Toba and her friends cried harder their sobs filling the

empty space please we didn't do anything wrong Amma begged her voice trembling like a frightened bird silence the old man bared his voice like thunder he motioned to Dany and his friends who stepped forward with ropes in hand the girl screamed and struggled but the ropes held them tightly the old man brought out a small black bottle filled with a dark foul smelling liquid he poured it into a wooden cup and held it to ad doa's lips drink he said his voice calm but cold ad doya shook her head her lips trembling no please she

begged but Dany grabbed her head forcing the liquid into her mouth she swallowed her body shaking as tears stream down her face moments later Aya's body stiffened her eyes wide with fear she fell to the ground lifeless the old man stepped forward raising a sharp knife with one swift motion he cut off her head blood poured into the Calabash like a river and Dany and his friends chanted strange words their voices blending with the old man's Toba screamed her cries piercing the air like a broken flute no no she shouted her body twisting in the

ropes next the old man said turning his eyes to Toba they forced the wooden cup to her lips but Toba fought with all her strength the bitter liquid burned her throat but as it reached her stomach she vomited it out again and again they made her drink and each time she wretched her body rejecting the poison she is strong the old man muttered his brows furrowing he turned to Amma who was too weak to fight she drank the potion with Trembling Hands her body collapsing moments later the old man wasted no time raising his knife

and cutting off her head blood filled the Calabash once more the red liquid reflecting the flickering light of a candle toba's heart shattered like a broken pot her tears fell endlessly as she watched her friends die before her eyes why did I come here she whispered to herself her voice choked with regret force her again the old man commanded Dany and fji held Toba down pouring more of the liquid into her mouth but no matter how much they gave her she vomited it all out her body refusing to give in the old man finally stepped

back his face hard like a rock she cannot be killed he declared his voice heavy with anger she will be made useless instead let her live as a shell of herself toba's body was weak from the beating her tears mixing with the dirt on her face she sat in the darkness her soul crushed as the old man prepared for the next stage of his ritual the market was bustling with life but Mama Toba couldn't shake the unease in her chest her hands trembled as she arranged yams on her wooden table she wiped the sweat from

her forehead and picked up her phone again Toba pick up she whispered dialing her daughter's number for the 10th time the phone didn't ring it was switched off Mama toba's heart raised beating like a drum in her chest her mind swelled with thoughts darker than a stormy night God please protect my child she prayed under her breath her lips moving quickly she looked around but the Market's noise drowned her thoughts far away Dany and his friends followed the old man's final instructions Toba barely alive was dumped out of the car to the roadside opposite the

market her clothes were torn her body bruised and her skin smeared with blood she lay motionless like a rag doll discarded in the dirt as the car drove off at a very high speed a market woman was the first to see her she screamed dropping the basket of tomatoes she was carrying ah somebody come and see they just dumped her people rushed to the scene their voices Rising like a swarm of bees who is she what happened to her they shouted their faces filled with fear Mama toba's stall was close to the roadside she heard

the commotion and ran toward the crowd her feet moving faster than they ever had before when she saw the girl lying there her knees buckled and she let out a whale that pierced the heavens Toba my child Toba opened her eyes weakly her voice was faint like a whisper carried Away by the wind mama she managed to say before collapsing into Mama toba's arms Mama toba's tears flowed freely as she cradled her daughter her once bright Toba was now a shadow of herself her body battered and her spirit broken without wasting a moment Mama Toba

lifted her daughter her strength fueled by desperation make way make way she shouted pushing through through the crowd she carried Toba straight to the prophet's house her mind racing with prayers God don't let my child die please don't let this be the end she whispered her voice trembling as she approached the prophet's door the prophet a man with a long beard and eyes that seemed to see beyond the physical opened the door before she could knock bring her in he said softly his tone calm but serious Mama Toba laid Toba on the mat her hands

shaking as she explained what had happened the prophet nodded his eyes scanning The Fragile girl before him this is not an ordinary battle he said his voice heavy but with prayer she will live MOBA knil beside her daughter her hands clasped tightly do whatever you can Prophet save my child her voice broke with emotion as tears streamed down her face outside the crowd murmured their Whispers spreading the story of the blooded girl found by the road the market that was once alive with laughter and trade was now hushed with fear meanwhile something even more terrible

had happened somewhere else after dumping Toba the car roared down the Dust Road music blaring as Dany and his friends laughed like hyenas after a feast this December will be the best ever Dany shouted gripping the steering wheel with pride Raji leaned back in the seat a green plastered on his face we'll have everything we've ever dreamed of riches power everything faji added nodding as he sipped from a bottle but their celebration didn't last long just three minutes from the market the car sped around a bend and out of nowhere a massive truck loomed in

front of them like a wall of Doom the crash was sudden and brutal like thunder striking the Earth the car crumpled like paper its music silenced forever Raji died on the spot his body lifeless in the wreckage Dany screamed in pain as blood poured from his legs now crushed Beyond saving one of his eyes was gone leaving his face disfigured fji groaned his arm severed hanging limply as he cried out in agony news of the accident spread through the town like wildfire Whispers turned to shouts as people connected the dots it's them someone said the

boys who dumped that girl at the market their evil Deeds have caught up with them another muttered shaking his head back at the prophet's house Toba lay on a mat her breathing steady but weak Mama Toba sat beside her watching as the prophet prayed and placed herbs on her wounds slowly toba's eyes opened and she began to speak in a broken voice like a bird with a wounded wing they killed them she whispered tears rolling down her cheeks Amma and AD Doja they cut off their heads I I should have listened to you Mama Mama

toa's heart broke and kneww as she listened to her daughter's harrowing tail the prophet placed a hand on toba's forehead and spoke softly her recovery will be slow but she will live the scars of the soul may never fade but she is strong the town BS with the story of the crash and toba's survival people spoke of divine justice of how evil can never Escape punishment the police came quickly dragging Dany and faji out of the wrecked car broken and battered they were taken to the hospital before being thrown into prison their dreams of wealth

had turned to ashes Dany sat in his cell his legs gone and his single eye staring at the wall fji clutched the stump where his arm used to be his head bowed in regret why did we do it Danny muttered we should have stayed poor the once proud boys now faced a life of misery they agreed having destroyed everything at the prophet's house Toba recovered slowly she could no longer walk without help and her voice was faint like a shadow of its former s the prophet told Mama Toba your daughter will live but she will

carry these scars for the rest of her life let her story be a lesson mobba wept holding her daughter close at least you are alive she whispered the town learned from toba's tragedy parents warned their children to listen and avoid Temptations young girls vowed to be more cautious their laughter now tinged with the the memory of toba's Tale the December that began with joy ended in sorrow Amma and AD Doja were gone Dany and fji were ruined and Toba would never be the same her story became a warning that echoed through the town be careful
