TANGLED
EPISODE 1
The stealthy movement of the garbage man notwithstanding, could still be sensed by Bumi that night. He must be sneaking into the neighbor's compound again to do God knows what. Bumi had observed that he did it more often these past few days.
Gently adjusting the blinds, she could see him from her window piling up stones and other improvise just to climb the fense. It was a short one though but he was just being overly conscious. She hissed in disappointment and went back to her bed. Lying supine, she turned her face to the wall clock hanging at corner of her room- it was just few minutes past midnight. Time must have stopped entirely she wondered and wished it was so-At least she wouldn't have to be awake till this time thinking of what her fate would be tommorow when she finally meets Brother Yusuf. She would have been sleeping and having a good night rest.
Swiftly, she grabbed one of her pillows and hugged it tightly allowing the hot tears that had welled up in her eyes to flow freely...
