Chapter 4 The Letter.

Gosh that was my nickname ,how come?I asked but she said she was hungry so, I had to prepare vegetables

and plantain for her.

When she finished eating I

wanted to ask her more about her sister, Pamela but she seems not to talk about herself and family.

We had sat down,when I remembered potiphar whom I had completely forgotten about.

It was night already. Promise was already asleep but I couldn't sleep because potiphar's name kept on echoing in my mind. I was already sleeping on the new bed that I claimed to have bought the day before he came to my home, infact my life..... I lied. It was a lie. I bought the bed a week before but didn't use it the way I should have used it.

I slept on the bed with promise who slept comfortably on the bed. I smiled while staring at her beautiful and cute face, I turned to my right hand side to look at the wall clock. It was 1pm. The time was slow, I had been expecting potiphar to have come back at this time since this was not the first time we fought. He was used to coming home late after our arguments, but this one was different.

I took hold of my phone, I didn't have potiphar's phone number on my phone or contact log book, so I couldn't reach to him.

Immediately, I dropped my phone on the table by my bed-side and noticed a letter on the table. It had no name on it. I opened it and the letter said;

To my arrogant but accommodating friend,

Reading this made me laugh but I wondered why I laughed when I felt guilty. The letter continued which made me feel like I was the one to be blamed. He really did not slap me but patted me on my face a little hard, which made me angry because I was having a sweet nightmare of my self meeting my parents. The letter continued;

I am writing this letter to you to the you that I am leaving you at last. I thank you for accommodating me but now I felt that since I am of no use to you, I thought that I should leave you alone since I was always a burden to you. So now, I am on my own. I have found a job to fend for myself.

This was what I wanted to tell you when I thought if I patted you a little bit hard, shout at you,then break the good news to you, I felt you would be happy, but all of a sudden, I could see in your face that you were angry before you slept".

I felt guilty again so I couldn't read the concluding part. I didn't know when I slept off but a beautiful voice that was humming woke me up. It was then I realized that it was daybreak. It was promise who was humming my favorite song. I had lost my memory before now but all I could remembered was my name and that of my sister's. The pretty humming voice distracted my thoughts. The voice said; '' Good morning Pam,''. I replied the little voice saying; ''Good morning little angel. How was your night?''

My night was good replied the little angel in a shaking voice. I felt furious and wondered what happened to her, she just said'' one man named portiphar, dropped by and dropped this. She handed an envelope and food to me.
