"BAM! BAM!! BAM!!!" Adanna woke up to the pounding of the door.

"Who be dat person wey no wan make I rest?", she yelled.

Ooh, just imagine! When Ndidi was about to tell me that he loves me and not Chioma, tchew¹... This person better has something important to tell me! Adanna thought while struggling to sit up.

"BAM!-"

"Biko², who is that?"

"BAM! BAM!! BAM!!!"

"Who could that be sef? Hope its not Olanma with those her rubbish pranks..... or is it that thing those girls were talking about? tufia! Ada come to your senses, see what you are saying! no one can scare me, let me take a look", she mumbled to herself while standing. She flung her wrapper to the other side of the mat in irritation.

Adanna walked to the door and opened it before the sound could come again. She saw no one and became angry, she looked left and right before trying to go in. The wind started howling and the birds began to cry.

"who is there? But its night na, how come all these things are happ-"

"Ewo³! someone help! Some-"

And everywhere was calm and silent once again only the swinging of Adanna's door could be heard. Fresh blood dyed the walls forming a string of words, NO PEACE IN THE LAND TILL I GET JUSTICE!
