On the road from Lagos 35: The forest 4

Previously On the road from Lagos 

The guards catches up Jamin and Remilekun

 


Fear engulf Remilekun and Jamin when they saw the guards. They struggles to get away from the guards but they didn’t get far when they reach a cliff almost falling in. They look back to see the two guards behind them. One of the two guard approach them. They shake with fear, as Remilekun looks at Jamin with tears forming  in her eyes


REMILEKUN

It seems this is the end


JAMIN

Says who?


He helps her to sit down


JAMIN

Stay there


REMILEKUN

What are you going to do?


Jamin gives her no answer as he walks to meet the guard


JAMIN

I am not letting you take her or me back to that cursed village. I am going to fight with all have got


Jamin stands to throw punch but seconds later he is seen on the ground getting kicked and punched. Remilekun quivers in pain as she sees Jamin getting beaten, then she sees big stones close to where she is sitting.

She crawls to the location of the stones. She picks one and throws it at the guard beating Jamin but missed. This failed attempt at the guard draws his attention to her. He tries to leaves Jamin to go Remilekun but Jamin holds his leg


JAMIN

No, not her


The guard tries to shake Jamin off but Jamin holds on tight. This distraction gives Remilekun the chance to aim another stone at the guard. The stone lands on his head and he falls to the ground. This gives Jamin the chance to punch the fallen guard beyond recognition. 

The other guard starts to fume as Jamin stands up with a bloody face and almost limping. He shouts in happiness


JAMIN

I did it


Suddenly, he hears a loud shout but before he check out the source of the sound, the other guard who Jamin and Remilekun have clearly forgotten about launches unto Jamin pushing him off the cliff. Remilekun shouts in a loud voice


REMILEKUN

Noooooooo


She starts to crawl to the cliff, crying as she crawls


REMILEKUN

No, not again


She gets to cliff and sees Jamin holding unto a rock, Remilekun breathes in relief


REMILEKUN

You are alive, thank God, you scared me


JAMIN

My chance is still slim, I can fell to my death at any seconds now


REMILEKUN

Where is the man?


JAMIN

He fell, I think he is died


Remilekun stretches her hand down to him


REMILEKUN

Give me your hand and let me pull you out


JAMIN

You don’t have the strength to pull me out, besides your leg is in a bad shape


REMILEKUN

There is no one here, I have to help you


JAMIN

Look around, you might find one of our people that will help me


REMILEKUN

That is like finding a needle in a haystack and you said it yourself, my leg is in bad shape. I won’t make it in time to help


JAMIN

You are not strong enough to pull me out yourself


REMILEKUN

But we have no choice, am all you got. So let me give it a try


Jamin gives her his hand and Remilekun tries to pull several times but it didn’t work


JAMIN

You should let go Remilekun


REMILEKUN

No, I am not letting anyone die for me again


Through her sweat and tears, she puts her injured leg on a nearby tree for support and she pulls Jamin up screaming at the top of her voice in agony. Jamin falls on top of her but he quickly stands up to check her leg and sees that the leg looks so bad


JAMIN

I told you to leave me there


REMILEKUN

No, I am not going to let you die for me


JAMIN

I heard you say you won’t let anyone die for you again, who died for you?


REMILEKUN

That young lady that was with us, she got caught because she went to pick my necklace, she could be died already


JAMIN

We don’t know that


REMILEKUN

What about the doctor? He could have been caught and used as sacrifice


JAMIN

You watched too many Nigerian movies, we don’t know that


REMILEKUN

But I know my mom is died because of me


JAMIN

What?


REMILEKUN

I tell everyone that she died because of my dad but in actuality she died because of me. She died because I won’t stop acting like the spoilt brat that I am. I thought putting it all on my dad will make it easy but it is not. Knowing that I killed my mom is very very painful and I can’t have the guilt of someone else’s dying for me on my conscience again


Femi runs into view and sees them staring into each other’s eyes


FEMI

Am I interrupting something?


The two turns to see him, a big laugh comes out of Jamin’s mouth


JAMIN

See, he is not died. Who know, the other lady might still be alive


Femi walks towards the duo hurriedly 


FEMI

We need to leave immediately


Femi bends and checks Remilekun’s leg


FEMI

Your leg look worse than the last time I saw it


Then suddenly Remilekun hugs Femi to his surprise


REMILEKUN

Thank you for not dying


Femi looks confused as he mouths what is wrong with her to Jamin. Jamin just smiles
