As Ireti closed from work she went downstairs to wait for
the cab she just hired. As she was waiting she perceived some roasted corn
nearby. Ireti was a lover of corn. She decided to follow the aroma so she could
buy some corn. Before Ireti knew what was happening her head was covered with a
black mini-sack. Her hands were bound together as she was bundled into a
strange looking car. The two men hopped into the car as one of them started the
engine. Ireti could hear as one of the men started the engine. Her heart beat
began to increase. Different thoughts began to run through her mind. Her
scariest thought was that they kidnapped her for sacrifice. She began to cry
uncontrollable. At one point she didn't know when urine ran down through her
legs. Ireti hadn't prayed in a very long while but this time she began to say The
Lord's Prayer. After saying some prayers she began to beg the men. She offered
them a lot of money. She told them how her father is a business tycoon and how
she could get them a lot of money. The men didn't answer her. She kicked and
screamed but all was to no avail. No one could see her in the car because the
windows of the car was tinted. Ireti started to think of how to jump out of the
car. She tried to use her legs to unlock the car door but she hurt her leg
instead of unlocking the car door. Since she couldn't jump out of the car she
decided she was going to just stay calm. She finally made a plan than seemed
like a genius one. She made up her mind that when she gets to the sacrifice
ground she would beg the herbalist. She had concluded in her head that if she
offered the herbalist a huge sum of money he would spare her life. Everyone
loves money she echoed feintly. That was her beautiful plan and she was
sticking to it. The men were amazed of how she had simmered down and how she wasn't
making anymore trouble. After a long drive the men stopped the engine. As the
men stopped the engine Ireti's heart rate increased. It was like she should
just die. She felt the worst had befallen her. So I will end my life as meat for sacrifice she thought.One of the men
opened the back sit door and reached out to carry her. She tried to fight the
man but it was a wasted effort. The man hung Ireti across his shoulder. Ireti began
to count the steps of the man. Suddenly the man dropped Ireti on the floor. He
untied her hands and removed the mini sack that was put over her head. As the
mask was removed she was amazed to see her fiancé Eyinna. She began to have
mixed feelings. Immediately Eyinna dropped down on one knee and asked her to marry
him. She stood there looking at him in astonishment. After a minute and a half
she moved closer to Eyinna. Eyinna was afraid of what Ireti would do to him so
he started begging for his dear life. As Ireti drew closer she whispered in his
ear saying -yes I will marry you. She reminded Eyinna of how she had told him
the year before that if he was going to propose he should make it an epic
proposal. She hugged and kissed him feintly while she thanked him for making
the proposal an epic one.
