Go and sit down and soak yourself with Alcohol you cannot do more than a dead rat!” Sunny dared Simon, he let out a heavy punch the stroke Sunny across the face , he landed on the ground ,Simon jumped on him , and rained punches on his face , before people struggled to separate them .
“Sunny if you see me run! I’ll cut your head off with a cutlass ! I swear on my mother’s grave!” Simon swore , Sunny was still spitting out the blood from his lips , his white lace native had been stained with mud and blood .
“Me Simon ? I will deal with you until you run out of Agadagba. You injured me ?” Sunny asked struggling to go back and continue the fight, Simon was more than ready to give him the fight .
“Leave him let him come ! if I don’t kill him call me a bastard!” Simon swore over and over the men dragged Sunny away from the shop . Simon went back and demanded for fresh shots of Kaikai to quench his angry soul, he hated a backstabbing man ,if he wanted to harm a person he let them know .

“Mummy where is Agada ?”Igoche asked . Onyabehi broke into tears she couldn’t say a word to the boy .”Mummy where is Igoche ?” He repeated , Ogbole came in and took the boy away . Ogwuche lay in bed , face pressed against the mattress he had cried and soaked it wet .
