DAY LIGHT ROBBERY

When I saw the first guy approach, I thought he was just a passer-by, then the second guy came, tall, lanky, masked. The third followed suit then I knew we were done for.
i called 'Jesus, Jesus' and made to run but remembered my friends were there......
They made us lie on our smomachs and began to ransack for our phones and wrist watches. When the phones did not tally with our number, they searched the more and one of them discovered my gold necklace. ...
When he got it, I felt the need to negotiate. "Bros, I'm like your sister o! You took my phone and took my necklace....give me one and keep one nau, please"
Then his matchete came 'whoop' on my bum, "I no get sister, dem dey get sister for this Buhari economy? so I shut the hell up. I did't panic but i wasn't smiling. His colleague came and helped massage my bum, his palm on my butt aggravated the pain and i wondered 'who send am?'
I began to tell God in my heart, "if these dirty urchins come so close and end up defiling me, I will rebel against You".
The massage stopped and another one came close by my ears asking what I was tryna say. I told him nothing. He was making for my breast region when the leader called out; "hey! no try that one o, no be wetin dem send us come do. If the thing dey hungry you wait, when you reach house you go meet your girlfriend". vintage inspired wedding items in short length
I grew calmer. They got done with the ransack and left.

Sleep has become a stranger. The blink of my eyes brings a rush of imagery, both of this one and previous encounters.

I thank God still. I was robbed not raped. Robbed not kidnapped. Robbed not killed.

I don't need a pity party now, just do what good friends do for their loved ones in time of such grief. Be grateful to God on my behalf. Say a word of prayer for me, silently, from your heart.

I trust God that affliction shall not rise a 'fifth time' in my life, Amen!
