⚠Do not copy or repost.⚠

I opened my eyes as The ringing of my alarm clock woke me up.

**lemme just close my eyes a bit** I muttered as I stopped the ringing.

"It's still 6:37am" I mumbled as I used my bedspread to cover my whole body.

***********

...Knock knock…. A voice sounded from outside.

"Who is That person that wants to be unfortunate and wake me up by this time of the morning?" I yelled as I flung up from my bed angrily.

I will soon be rich and park out of this damn public compound I muttered angrily as I walked to the door.

"Yes, how may I help you?" I said immediately I opened the door.

"Guy if I remember correctly,you said you are going for an interview" Josh mentioned as he looked at me from head to toe…

**well yeah I know Josh,he's my guy.We hustle together or I mean he finishes my food****

"Yes I do! By 8:00, so I was…."

"You were or you are just waking up from sleep" Josh asked, cutting me short.

"There is still times'' i replied as i turned and pointed to the clock on my wall …"What the fuck" I screamed In shock….

"Hahahaha,"josh bursted out laughing "No go and sleep, it 7:12am and your just getting up from bed"

*wasn't it just now my alarm clock rang? or did I oversleep?* I wondered as I ran inside to get my bucket.

Oh my gosh I'm gonna be late,I ran to the bathroom with my water filled bucket only to meet a long line of my neighbors who are all waiting for their turn to take their bath.

"My village people are at work" I mumbled as I paced impatiently in the long queue.

**what if I go and take my bath in my backyard** I thought as an idea hit me.

I took my bucket, ran off and went Back to my room,and went to the backyard through my window to avoid attracting any movement.

I took my bucket,poured water slowly on my body to avoid it making a sound as it hit the floor.

****to avoid long details on how I took my bath,let me use this opportunity to introduce myself.

My name is jāy kalu, I hail from Abia state in Nigeria.

I finished my secondary school at the age of 16 because I started schooling early.so now I live alone and I hustle to earn money to take care of my family****

Well I was done with taking my bath,which I did with every sense of urgency and alertness.

Up till today,I can't still explain the speed I used in brushing my teeth and dressing up,but all I can say is that I was done dressing and ran out of my room like a mad man.

"Jāy this is 7:39, so just hurry" Josh yelled as I ran past him.

*mtcheew he's now behaving as if he's my time keeper.

"Taxi taxi oyigbo roundabout" I screamed immediately as I got to the main road.

"Taxi" I screamed at any incoming vehicle "oh God my village people at work"...

**Lisa POV****

*It been 9 months since all these happened** I thought as tears dropped down my eyes…

***Flashback 9 months ago****

My father laid sick in his room on the 6th floor of our 7 storey building high mansion.

"Listen to me carefully Lisa, these might be my last words" my dad stated as he coughed at intervals.

"No dad they are and can never be your last word" I cried as I placed my head beside his bed.

"Lisa, listen..! There is a document I left underneath my favorite chair in the attic" my dad said as he struggled to breath

I nodded with tears dripping down my eyes..

"I wasn't able to write my will,but those documents will give you some ownership to all my properties,anybody with it controls my assets" he added as he coughed and winced in pain.

"But daddy you can't leave me now,am still a young girl I can't take care of your legacy and the company now"I said sadly

"Lisa you ha…." A loud thud sound from just outside the room cutting my dad short

"Who is there?" I yelled, wiping my tears. But I got no reply so I stood to go check who it was.

"Lisa!!" My called holding my hands "get the document before anybody else" he added as he coughed

I nodded as I left him to go check what made the noise.I opened the door and was greeted by a gun pointing at me.

"Lisa..!" My uncle said pointing a gun at me

"Uncle Charles" I said in shock.

"Seize her" he commanded the muscular men behind him.

I tried to run and escape as I screamed for help but they seized me and raised me up from the group using their palm to close my mouth.

"Charles,please don't harm my daughter" my dad begged as he tried to breathe.

"Oh Brother,don't bother about that, it you that have what want and you know that" my uncle said as he walked towards my father

I tried mumbling words through my sealed mouth but I just couldn't

"Charles please" my father begged as he laid pale on his sick bed

"Don't bother yourself, I heard it all and some of my men are on their way to your attic as well speak" my uncle started chuckling.

That statement made a bell in my brain ring as the adrenaline in my body rushed,I bit the guard hand that sealed my mouth using my foot to hit him on the ball causing him to free his grip on me…

I screamed and tried to run but the other guards came after me and caught me before I could make it to the door..

"Don't let her escape,or else it would be your head on the stakes"uncle Charles warned

"Sir, here are the documents," a man said as he stepped into the room.

"That's awesome".."well brother it seems I have no use for you,so let me end your suffering"Uncle Charles said, picking up a pillow..

"No no uncle Charles please don't do this" I screamed but he paid no attention as in my very eyes my uncle took the pillow and placed it over my bed ridden father and pressed it restricting his breathing,my father struggled weakly,his legs shaked and vibrated.

"No ooo" I screamed and struggled hitting and kicking as I tried to free myself.then my dad stopped shaking..

My uncle removed the pillow and my dad just laid on the bed dead.

"The police would investigate and get you arrested,I will arrest you" I struggled to say as tears couldn't allow me to make a statement.

"Hahaha,I don't think so,imagine this headline on the news, popular rich billionaire dies in his room and daughter after finding out about her fathers death committed suicide by jumping off the 6th floor of a seven storey building high mansion" my uncle said as he smiled.

"Oh my god, you're evil" I exclaimed crying..

"Throw her off the window"uncle Charles ordered .

"Am sorry please",I begged and cried as I struggled but their strength was no match with a girl like me.

They took me to the window. I tried to hold onto anything I could grab but there was none. Immediately off I went falling with speed downward,my life played before my very eyes.

"I wouldn't rest until you pay for everything you have done to me uncle" I cursed before I hit the floor with force and died

**********

I opened my eyes to see people gathered around me,including my uncle and his men.they were all crying.

"Lisa,why would you kill yourself.you were like a daughter to me but you committed suicide because of your fathers death" my uncle lamented crying..

Immediately I stood up

"Liar!!" I screamed "his lying he threw me off the window" i explained to the people gathered there..

"Why aren't you guys listening?" I yelled as I ran towards my uncle to hit him but instead I passed through him and fell on the floor…

I stood up and turned my own body on the ground.

"Is that me?" I said shocked ..
