Chapter 45

  THE TRAP

  They got to the front of the Cochin church and Bimpe alighted from the bike. Then she turned to go into the compound after rewarding the bike man with a smile.

  She stepped into the compound and move towards her door when she heard a scream. She moved away from the doorpost in fright.

  She heard the scream again for the second time before she ran towards Banji's door. She knocked on it continuously without waiting for a response.

  Banji opened the door with a frown and quickly replaced it with a smile when he saw who it was.

  "Banji", she called, panting and pointing to the door which was directly opposite his.

  The smile pasted on his face turned into a troubled look. "What is the matter Bimpe?"

  "Didn't you hear any scream?" She asked him.

  "Scream? I thought you were watching a movie", he responded.

  "The scream is coming from my room. I haven't been home since last night, I just came back from class now. I can't go in, I'm scared."
