THE RUNS GIRL - A story by Victor

EPISODE 3
When I came back to our room later in
the afternoon, Stella wanted to know how
everything went but I refused to talk to
her. This annoyed her so much and she
left me alone. I lay on the bed ruminating
over the events of the past night.
After a while I got up, went to my purse
and brought out the cheque of two
hundred and fifty thousand naira and
stared at it one more time.
I had to go and cash it as soon as
possible to avoid stories that touch. I
dressed up and went to the bank to cash
the cheque and when the cash was
handed to me, I couldn’t believe I was the
one handling such amount. The sight of
the money gladdened my heart and
erased all the depression I felt. I dropped
the money inside my handbag and headed
back to my hostel.
I narrated how everything happened to
Stella later in the evening when she came
back. She smiled after listening to my
story and said:”welcome to the game but
don’t allow yourself get drugged next
time.” I thanked her for her advice. The
next day I went shopping and bought new
clothes for lectures and for business.
I also bought samsung galaxy smart
phone, new handbag and new makeup kit.
I had learnt that the smart phone helped
us in getting clients by snapping lewd
pictures and uploading to social media
where potential clients could contact us.
I submitted pics to different hotels and
pleaded with them to contact me incase
any guest in their hotel needed company.
The two hundred and fifty thousand naira
had increased my interest in the business
and there was no going back. I opened a
new bank account and deposited the
remainder of the money therein.
Our second semester exams was
scheduled to start the next monday and I
wasn’t prepared. But that wasn’t going to
be a problem – I knew how to go about it. TBC
