Story of Addiction (Episode 132)

One Faithful Sunday service  @ RCCG

 
I continued praying and still trying to figure out where Tunde was taking me to. The car stopped in what I guess to be about 10mins drive. My heart kept skipping. I was bundled out of the car. I looked around: trying to figure out where I was but the fence of the compound was very high. I know that I won't be too far off from my area.
I scanned the area for Tunde and Ronke: but they were nowhere to be found. I have now resigned my faith in the hands 3 fierce looking guys. One of the guys removed the tape and rope from my body. He whispered into my ears --"you fuc*ked up and we are going to treat your fuc*kup".

Me: (crying) I'm sorry for everything but I promise it won't repeat itself
Guy1: (smiling) I bet that it won't... so you actually slept with her..
Me: no ooo... we just came over for a drink... I am very sorry sir; it won't happen again. Please let me go; my family would have been worried by now.
Guy2: you should have thought of that before you took your friends girlfriend to another hotel.
I knew that there is no amount of pleading that would let these guys let go: because I know that they are working under the directives of Tunde. I looked around and I was looking for a way to escape the vicinity. I could see that the guys with me were not concentrating on me. Without having much thought about what I was doing: I ran off to the gate. One of the guys saw me and he alerted the other guys.
They pursued me. Unfortunately for me, the gate was locked with a big padlock. With the three fierce looking guys almost caught up with me. I looked around and I sighted a hole in one of the X-axis of the tall fence. I dashed over there and I was
almost scaling the fence when one of the guys caught me by my trousers. He forcefully dragged me down: that I landed on my arm. I was seriously in pain but that doesn't stop them from beating me. I was kicked continuously on my tummy that I could hardly breathe. They dragged me on my feet and I received punches again on my tummy and face.
I started seeing 9 guys instead of 3 guys. The beating continued until I faked to have passed out. The guys were afraid that I was dead.
Guy1: (voice shaking) it seems the guy is dead ooo
Guy2: (checking my pulse) he's still breathing but I think it would be better for us to release him as Tunde as instructed.
Through their conversations: I was made to understand that: Tunde and Ronke had already alighted the car before we got to this place. And that Tunde actually instructed them to beat me up and release me afterward. They put my wallet and phone into my pocket. They put me back into Ronke's car. only that this time, I sat in at the back of the car.
They drove me to our street and they forcefully ejected me out of the car: just like the way "One chance" people usually does.
They drove off before people around knew what had happened.
I laid motionless on the floor and people have already gathered around me. I could hear their conversation. Some of them said, the guys that dropped me were ritualist: that they have used me. While some of them said I'm among the school cultists around our area.
I'm dying and none of the people around deemed to help me. I am very weak. I knew I couldn't stand up on my own but I managed to turn over my body. It was when my face was visible to all; that someone called my name. "It's Femi .. It's Femi". He helped me up and he called out for people to assist him. I managed to look at the man's face and I realised it to be Ruka's father.
They took me to our house. I was not surprised when I met my every member of my family outside. My mum started shouting and I could see Funmilayo crying. My dad ordered my only brother to bring out the car and I was rushed to the hospital.
