I darted out of my lodge around 10pm into the already heavy night. I strolled at ujunwa's food restaurant( my best food junction)

"Uju! Please gimme spaghetti tomorrow i go come pay." I spoke with my quiet voice. Then i sat on the usual old dying bench designed with a frightful number of old rusting nails.

Few seconds later, she walked out, a plate of cold spaghetti in her hands and she silently placed the meal on the dusty table.

There was power outage and through the dim light supplied by the old lantern i could see that her figure was unrecognizable.

I tried to joke converse with her as we usually but she refused to talk. I shrugged and opened the plate and to my dismay i was greeted with a pair of fresh bloodied human eyes, intestines and a cold tongue( i knew it was cold because i reached for it first).

I jumped up quickly over turning the table and its contents my heart skipping, my kneel freezing .

She finally turned her face to me and I discovered her eyes and tongue where both missing, her stomach opened up in a messy form and a pungent odour emanating from her bowels.

"Ohh you have dirtied her eyes for now. How do i wash it now? Eh?  " she said in wild growl. 

"Blood of ........!!" I screamed never completing my grammar before , tripping over benches and chairs, bushes and stumps to begin racing to my lodge.

I rushed in turned the key, kicking the door open.

banged my door and crawled under the bed while sweating heavily." Joe has warned me to stop that girl's food but i wont bulge lord lead me out of this temptation and deliver me from this evil ." i said jamming my hands together in a prayer. Some minutes later, I began a journey to the world of nightmares.

The next day, I crawled out, stood, stretched my a

arms, and yawn.

I walked over to my window, shifted my old curtain open , and took a glance out side.

"Uju is dead oh her body was found outside with her eyes and tongue missing". Joe my neighbour cried out, his hands on his head.

i opened my door. Not surprised anymore. I mean why would i be when i warned her not denounce our occult group. i never knew She would still insist on leaving so the queen mother must have allowed Nneka to possess Her and and murdér her making it seem like she committed suçide.. but in the most horrible way.. my problem was why she served me the girls body. I will find out tonight.....

Be careful out there
