CHAPTER 4: The Good Samaritan

ELIAS

Elias Dotu SAGBO are my first and last names. From the height of my twenty-seven years, I am one meter eighty. I am an expert in human resources management, but I am not yet in a relationship because I am not yet ready.

I have just put my bags down on Beninese soil after more than three years spent abroad. How much I missed my country!

After collecting my suitcase, I carry it around to the waiting room.

Once there, a not too slender sieur came to meet me:

The stranger: Have a good arrival boss, he said, trying to take my suitcase.

Me: Who are you please? I ask him, removing the suitcase.

The unknown: I am your parents' driver. The one that was sent to take you home. Wait a minute ! Your parents are calling.

The driver: Hello Sir!

Voice on the phone: ...?

Driver: Yes, I've seen him before.

The voice on the phone:

The driver: Take! They want to talk to you, he said, handing me the phone.
