We walked together to the canteen and found a nice
place to sit down. He ordered for coke and meat pie
for the both of us and his order was brought quickly.
Titus: so Idris, what is the problem?
Me: it’s about Diana o.
Titus: *sipping his coke* so na even because of girl

Me: you dey craze o, its like you don’t even

Titus: don’t tell me that she has left you for another
guy?
Me: not even that.
Titus: then what is it.
Me: from yesterday morning till today’s morning I
haven’t seen her, neither have I heard from her.
Titus: you call her for phone.
Me: your ear deaf? I said I haven’t heard of her. You

commot or not but you say you call her.
Titus: sorry, she carry phone commot.
Me: no, the phone dey house.
Titus: no just bother yourself. Believe me, anywhere

Me: but I know just fit stay without her. You need to

She dey very sad. My hope be say she never go
commit suicide.
Titus: God forbid. Just drink your coke first. Later we
will go to her house and check. Who knows? She
might have decided to stay at home away from
everyone.
Me: yes oo. That’s very sensitive of you. Please lets
go.
I said standing up.
Titus: not so fast. Drink your coke first.
Me: ok, I will.
We hurriedly drank the coke and ate the meat pie. I
wanted to pay but he quickly paid for everything. I
thanked him and we all left.

DIANA’S HOUSE
we arrived at their huge mansion. It was difficult for
me to find the place because I wasn’t use to that
place and I don’t often visit her because we do stay
at school.
Titus: are you sure this is the place?
Titus asked me in a surprised tone.
Me: yes, why did you ask?
Titus: wow, this girl is very very rich o.
Me: so you don’t know.
I said with a smile.
Me: too bad that with all this wealth, she is still very
very sad. That’s why they say that money can’t buy
life or else, her parents wouldn’t have been dead.
Titus: true.
We got closed to the gate and knocked for several
hours before a gateman came outside.
Gateman: kai na who I be.
Me: I am Idris and this is my friend, his name is
Titus. Please is Diana inside.
Gateman: no, I never see am for small madam I
swear.
We begged the gateman thinking he was lying but
all to no avail. We even bribed him. He collected the
money and was still telling us the same thing.
Filled with frustration and disappointment, we turned
back and came back to school with lost hope.
*****************************
7 DAYS LATER.
I was in my room preparing to go to church. I
haven’t seen Diana for the past one week now.
Well, Life have to continue. If she truly loves me,
she is gonna come back for me.
I have prepared finish when I heard a knock on the
door.
Me: hello who is that.
Person: *no answer*
I decided to check who it was and when I got there,
I was surprised to see about two policemen
standing there with handcuffs in their hands and an
ugly expression on their face.

THE MERMAID’S COVEN
DIANA’S POV
Queen: it is time!! Tracy, open the lid of the WATER
OF HOLIES.
Tracy: yes Queen mother.
She said and removed the cover.
The Queen mother and the eleven mermaid girls
were all present. They have completed all the rites,
all the prayers and initiation to transform me into a
mermaid.
I was brought out of the WATER OF HOLIES, the
whole place suddenly became dark and I came out
from the coffin like structure, not as a human but a
MERMAID.
