HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
Episode 1
Fred stood patiently under the shade of a mango tree which was notable for its serenity.He leaned vertically on the tree trunk with his left foot over his right foot.
Fredo was a dark complexioned guy,tall,slim with a very good physique.His face was his centre of attraction,his appeal could turn ladies cr@zy at first sight.Most ladies in the community revelled in his formidable appearance and would go at any length to make him theirs but Fred was too willing to reject any lady who attempted to woo.
He smacked his lips continuously as he waited for his dear Cyndi (the love of his life).
Of all ladies in the community, Fred had found Cyndi to be the best of them all.It was not only her beauty that attracted her to him,but also,her distinctive morals she exuded in the community.
Cyndi was an alluring and beautiful lady who was from a reputable family known for their decency and good morals.Just like every other lady,she fell in love with Fred the moment she first saw him.
Fred on his own part,reciprocated the love she had for him,he had always heard of her perfect qualities and had wished to be her boyfriend despite the fact that she was despised by other maidens because of her features.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
He sighed and felt a lump in his throat when he saw her approaching.Her dazzling expression triggered a smile on his sheeny face.
“Sorry I kept you waiting Fred, I was handling some chores.”Cyndi said with a smile as she walked closer to Fred.
“You don’t need to apologize darling, I have no problem with that.I would have waited longer even if you hadn’t come earlier.”Fred said as he held her hands and swayed them continuously.
“You’re so sweet Fred,you should be cross that I came late.”
“No dear, I can’t be @ngry because you came late, it’s nothing.”Fred said with a fa!nt smile.
“What about your mother Fred,is she getting better?””Um… I think so Cyndi, the herbs I gave her recently should have worked.”
“Are you sure???”Cyndi asked s@dly.
“Of course I am sure Cyndi, don’t be too worried about my mum, she will be fine.”Fred said as he rubbed her shoulder.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“I think it’s time for us to go Cyndi,”Fred said and was about to move when she stopped him.
“Where are we going Fred? you never informed me that we were going to visit someplace.”
“Wait a minute! you’ve forgotten!?”
“Forgot what??”Cyndi asked curiously.
“You promised to take me to your parents today.”Fred said as he nodded his head slowly with a flashy smile.
“Owww.. I forgot! I didn’t even remember my promise.”Cyndi said and she laughed sheepishly.
“Of course I won’t forget such an important thing, I can’t wait to meet the most reputable family in this community.”
“I’m flattered.”she said and her smiles faded slowly.
“What is it Cyndi?? why the sudden expression??”he asked when he noticed her sudden s@d countenance.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Do you think this is the right time Fred?”
“Of course it is.Your parents should get to know me as their future son in law.Remember we’re not getting any younger Cyndi,we can start a family together, it’s not too early sweetheart.”Fred said with all seriousness he could muster.
“I understand what you’re trying to say Fred.But i’m worried…. what if my parents rejects you.my father once rejected a man who loved me all because he wants to protect his so called reputation, he don’t want me to be seen with any man until i’m fully prepared to get married.””I’m very much optimistic that they won’t reject me.I believe i’ll be accepted by your parents.”Fred said.
“If you say so Fred,there is no doubt that my parents will accept you.I mean you’re responsible and cool.Your appeal could even melt their hearts if it eventually turns stony.”
“I’m flattered, c’mon let’s go.”Fred said and he wrapped his arms across her shoulders .
Together,they walked away, towards Cyndi’s home…
Mr Paul sat comfortable on his well furnished wooden chair.The chair was his favourite,he virtually does everything while sitting on the wooden chair.
In the scorching afternoon sun,he sat under the shade of a tree and was reading an old newspaper.He kept humming a popular tune as the tree swayed gently in the breeze making the environment cool.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Good afternoon my husband.”Grace,his wife greeted him as she walked into the compound.She had gone to the market earlier on to purchase some foodstuffs.
“How are you dear ? hope you’re not stressed, you look so worried.”Mr Paul said as his wife sat on a bench beside him.
“You’re right dear, i’m really worried,my steps to the market were so heavy because i’m still trying to unravel the mystery of my dream, I had a terrible night m@re last night.”
“A terrible nightm@re!?And you did not bother to tell me about it earlier?”Mr Paul asked curiously as he dropped his newspaper aside.
“I’m so afraid my husband, this is the worst nightm@re i’ve ever had.”Grace said and snapped her fingers.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Stop keeping me waiting Grace, tell me.”he said impatiently.”A man was chasing our daughter in my dream, he pursued her with a kn!fe in his hand to the point that he caught up with her and k!lled her sliced her body like a piece of meat.The dream was so sc@ry and remember my dreams always come to past,we must do something.”Grace narrated with s@dness in her voice.
“This is terrible Grace, we have to do something about it, I have no doubt that your dreams always come to past.I’ll tell the dibia about it,there must be a way we can avert this terrible thing that is likely to occur.”
“Hmmmm, let me get your food dear.”Grace said and she stood up and walked into her kitchen to get her husband’s food.
While she was in the kitchen, Cyndi and Fred came.
“Good afternoon father.”Cyndi greeted cheerfully.
“Good afternoon my daughter, where have you been??”
“I went to the…. ”
“And who is this young man??”he interrupted as he stared at Fred.
“Good afternoon sir, i’m Fred, Cyndi’s boyfriend.”Fred introduced and bowed his head lightly .
“Ohhh.I see, you’re welcome young man please have your seat.You’re my guest.”Mr Paul said as his face brightened with a smile.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“My husband,the food is…..”Grace was speaking as she walked out of the kitchen but suddenly stopped when she saw Fred.The plate of food she was holding, dropped.
She couldn’t believe who she was seeing,she blinked several times to be sure she wasn’t dreaming again.Cold shivers ran down her spine as she recalled her night m@re.
Fred was the same man who k!lled and sl@ughtered her daughter’s body in the pool of her bl0od.Though his face was partially covered with bl0od but she still recognized him as the m0nster in her dream.Her heartbeat quickened.
“This dream will surely come to past if it is not quickly averted.I can feel it in my spirit!!!!I can’t lose my daughter,no! never!!!”She said within her as the picture of Fred sl@ughtering her daughter freshened in her mind…..

Episode 2
All eyes fell on Grace when the plates dropped, she was lost in her thoughts and didn’t move until her husband Mr Paul called her.
“What are you thinking again Grace??”he asked s@dly.
“I’m i’m.. very sorry for that.”Grace said and she walked towards them.
“Where are you coming from Cyndi? I thought I said you shouldn’t go anywhere??”Grace was fuming with r@ge.
“Er… mum.. I went to see him and by the way,you didn’t tell me not to go out.”Cyndi said nervously.
“See him!? And who is he to you??”Grace asked almost immediately.
“Um…er …he is…”
“I’m her boyfriend ma,my name is Fred, I’m the son of late Chief Jerry.”
“You’re her boyfriend!?You have the gut,the effontery, the temerity to walk into my compound and blab such rubish?”
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Grace!”Mr Paul called in utmost sh0ck.
“Don’t call me,he had the gut to walk in here and introduce himself as our daughter’s boyfriend and all you could do is sit back there and call me….”Grace paused and gnashed her teeth.She turned to Fred, glaring at him from head to toe.
“I don’t want to ever see you anywhere close to my daughter, don’t ru!n her future.She is our only child and I won’t let you destr0y her future please leave.Leave!!”Grace blustered as she gesticulated.
Fred was taken aback by her mother’s sudden outburst,he quietly left sh@mefully with Cyndi behind him, trying to pacify him.
“Where are you going Cyndi?come back here now!!”Grace barked but Cyndi didn’t listen to her.
“What is the meaning of that drama you just displayed Grace?you have no right to do that.”Mr Paul said after they had left.
“I have the right my husband.I have every right to do that because I cherish my daughter,she is the only child I have.I can’t sit back and watch her associate with miscreant ,wolves in sheep’s clothing.”
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“What do you mean Grace? are you insinuating that our daughter won’t get married?You know she’s not getting younger,a man will have to woo her before getting married.”Mr Paul challenged his wife.
“My daughter is not that desperate to get married Paul, even if she wants to get married, it can never be that man,never!!!”Grace said and she rolled her arm round her head and snapped her fingers.
“Why Grace?You don’t know this man too well to reject him,you never can tell if he is really meant for our daughter.”
“God forbid!over my de@d body!!”Grace said as she breathed heavily.
“Is there something you’re not telling me Grace? because I see nothing wrong with that young man who just came here.”
“My husband,”she called as she stood akimbo and shook her head,”you see that young man that just came here,he will k!lI our daughter.”she said as she moved her head to the rhythm of her speech.”What do you mean by he will k!Il our daughter? you’re speaking in an esoteric language that I don’t understand.”Paul said with confusion written all over his face.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“That man was in my dream,he k!lIed our daughter.”
“What!!you mean he was the man you saw in that dream!?”
“Yes my husband.I strongly feel that this dream is not ordinary,we will certainly lose our daughter if we don’t do something.”
“Hmmmmm….this is becoming so serious Grace,this dream must be averted.”Mr Paul added.
“Yes my husband, I suggest me see the dibia before it will be late.”
“You’re right,we certainly need to see him, tell me when you’re ready, we need to act fast.”Mr Paul said as his wife nodded her head in agreement.
“Please Fred, please don’t do this, i’m really sorry about what transpired in my house.”Cyndi pleaded as she followed Fred who was walking quickly with long strides.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Please Fred,talk to me,you can’t continue walking away from me.”she said s@dly as she quickened her pace.
“What did I do wrong Cyndi? have I done anything to offend your mom?”Fred said in te@rs as he stopped walking.
“You’re cry!ng!?”Cyndi almost exclaimed as she saw te@rs in his eyes.
“I love you Cyndi, I love you very much, I don’t know what I did to deserve your mum’s judgement.”he said bitterly.
“You did absolutely nothing Fred, I promise nothing, not even mortals can come in between us.”Cyndi said and Fred nodded his head gently,his face brightened with a smile.
“I love you more Cyndi.”he muttered as he hugged her passionately.
“You’re so soft,you cr!ed all because of me.”Cyndi said with a beam.
Fred chuckled as he held her so tight that he wouldn’t let go…
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
Mr Paul and his wife Grace looked at each other s@dly as the dibia chatted his incantation continuously.
He spat on the cowries lying serially on the rug he was sitting.He craned shortly and shook his head like someone who was shivering from cold.
He stopped chanting suddenly, paving way for a long interminable silence.
“Your dream is not ordinary,there is more to it than I see.”Ikenga,the dibia said as he raised his eyebrows.
Mr Paul looked at his wife curiously and turned to the dibia.”We don’t understand great dibia of this community, what do you mean by there’s more to it than you see?”Mr Paul asked.
“That dream is a reflection of what will happen in the future, I sense that there’s more to this terrible dream.”
“You’re scaring us great dibia,we love our daughter so much,we don’t want to lose her.”
“Yes dibia,we don’t want to lose our daughter,is there anything that can be done to avert the impending dis@ster that is about to befall us?”Mr Paul added to what his wife had said.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Hmmm….. averted!?”
“Yes dibia, please help us,we don’t want to lose our daughter.”
“I understand how you feel….”the dibia said and he started chanting again.He rolled the cowries and spat on it continuously.
“Hmm….the dream cannot be averted, there is no way we can avert the dream, they are inseparable.
The only thing that can avert the dream is their separations but remember what I told you,they are inseparable.The only thing I see right now is the man sl@ughtering your daughter…..

Episode 3
Fred massaged his mother’s feet ceaselessly while Cyndi tried to arrange her hair.
Fred’s mother looked pale and worn out,she kept gro@ning in pa!ns as Fred massaged her feet.
“You’ll be fine mum, I promise you will be fine.”Fred said s@dly.
“Hmmm…. my son, I hope so.”Fred’s mother muttered and sneezed.
“Don’t you think we should go to the hospital Fred,your mother’s condition is aggravating each day.”Cyndi with a s@d expression.
Fred exhaled deeply and shook his head.
“I have no dime with me Cyndi, I would have done that long ago if I had the money.”
“You don’t have to take me to the hospital son, I promise I will be fine…. it’s just…..”Fred’s mother paused as she coughed aloud.
“I would have given you the money if I have it Fred, but I think I can talk to my parents about it, they might be willing to offer you some money.”
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“No,no no,you don’t have to do that Cyndi, I already know that they won’t even release a dime.I will see what I can do,maybe I will sell our only plot of land to raise the money.”Fred said still in a sombre mood.
“No my son, you won’t sell that plot of land.The land is our only means of survival, have you imagined what will eventually happen if you sell that land??”
“Mum,your health is paramount here.I’ll find a way we can feed after we go to the hospital and you get better, Fred said.”
“Yes mama, your health is very important, Fred and I will find a means of survival after you get better.”Cyndi chipped in.
“No…..”Fred mother paused and shook her head,”don’t sell that piece of land.If eventually something happen to me ,you should be able to fend for yourself with that piece of land.I don’t want my son to suffer,no….you cannot suffer the way your late father and I….”Before she could complete her words, she broke into te@rs.
“Don’t say that mama,”Fred said as he quickly rushed to console his mother,”nothing will happen to you mum,you will be strong, I believe you’ll be strong, please don’t sober.”Fred said as he felt a pang of p@in.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Yes mama, Fred is right, nothing will happen to you,the God we serve does not sleep,he neither sleeps nor slumber.”
Fred sat down and continued massaging his mother’s feet as soon as she started wiping her te@rs.
“Er… mama i’ll take my leave now, I have to help my mother with some chores before it’s too late.”Cyndi said as she stood up and rubbed her body to remove strands of hair.
“Thank you my daughter may God bless you, please go well.”
“Okay ma, thank you.”She said with a smile as she swayed her arms.
“I’ll be back mother,let me see her off.”
“Okay my son.”Fred’s mother said and he left with Cyndi.
“Where do you think you’re coming from Cyndi??”Grace blustered immediately Cyndi walked into the sitting room.
“Mum,from the church fellowship of course, Mr Abraham hosted a fellowship today.”Cyndi lied.
“A church fellowship indeed! I thought I have warned you, didn’t I???”
“Warn me!!?you never warned me not to attend the church fellowship mum.”
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“You went to see that man again, didn’t you?”
“You mean Fred!?”Cyndi queried as though she never understood what her mother was saying.
“Stop speaking as if you don’t understand what i’m saying Cyndi…”
“I literally don’t understand what you’re saying mum, I told you and my father that Fred is my boyfriend, I love him and he loves me too,so I see nothing wrong with that.”
“But I see something wrong in that Cyndi, i’m your mother I have every right to tell you what to do and what not to do.In as much as you’re under my roof, I won’t let you see that m0nster again.”Grace raved.
“You can call him whatever you want to call him mum, I don’t care.I love him and that is final.Mind you,you have no right to tell me what to do, i’m 24 for cry!ng out loud, i’m old enough to be in my husband’s house.”Cyndi challenged her mum.
“You don’t know what is going on Cyndi, you’re craving for de@th.”
Cyndi flinched and looked at her mum inquisitively,”excuse me!?”
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“That man is going to k!Il you Cyndi, he is not who you think he is, he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing trying to devour his prey.I had a terrible dream,he k!lIed and sl@ughtered you in that dream.You better flee from him.”
Cyndi burst out laughing when she heard this, she clapped her hands and shook her head.
“Excuse me mum, i’m not in for any form of fibs.”she said m0ckingly and left.
“Cyndi! Cyndi?!!”Grace called but there was no reply.
Cyndi sat under the shade of a tree, beside a river waiting for her dear Fred.She beamed sweetly as she watched the murky river cascading down the rocks.
“Hope I didn’t stay long??”she heard Fred’s voice behind her.
“You kept me waiting, I thought you were not coming.”Cyndi feigned annoyance.
“Why won’t I come to see my love, the apple of my eyes,the only beauty in this community.”Fred flattered her and she blushed.
“I love you too Fred.By the way, where have you been??? You didn’t tell me what you were doing.”
“I was h@unting for souls.”he said in a deep voice that sent cold shivers down her spine.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“What!!”Cyndi exclaimed as she noticed bl0od in his palms.
“What have you been doing Fred? what did you do???”she asked in fe@r.
“I want souls Cyndi! I want souls!!”Fred said and he brought out a kn!f and thrust it into her stomach.
Cyndi gasped in p@ins as her bl0od flowed rapidly.Fred murmured silently and rubbed her bl0od on his face.
“Hahhhhhhhhhhhhh…..”Cyndi screeched at the top of her voice as she sprang off her bed.
She was sweating profusely and was also shivering with fright.
“It was a dream….”She muttered as she felt a cold presence in her room.

Episode 4
Cyndi and Fred stood on their usual spot early the next morning.She was very worried about the night m@re she had the previous night and was very eager to narrate it to Fred.
“I had a terrible dream last night Fred, I am scared.”
“A terrible dream!? when did you start dreaming? because I know you don’t often dream.”Fred said curiously.
“It’s unlike me Fred, I don’t usually dream at night but I did last night.A nightm@re at that.”
“What was the dream all about?”he queried and sighed.
“You had bl0od in your hands,you k!Iled me in that dream.You st@bbed me to de@th.”she said s@dly with a shaken voice.
Fred opened his mouth in awe, he was speechless.
“I really don’t know what to say, that’s such a horïble dream.”Fred said as he opened his mouth in shock
“I know it’s just a dream but it’s so terible, I mean, I felt something strange that night.”Cyndi said with anxiety written all over her face.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“It’s just a dream Cyndi, just a terible night m@re,you know I can never do such a thing .”Fred said as he held her shoulders.
“I never you’re going to hurt me Fred, it’s just a dream.Besides,dream does not come true I trust you Fred,if anyone can hurt me, definitely it can’t be you.”Cyndi said as she touched his silky cheek.
“I love you so much Cyndi, please don’t leave me, don’t reject me, don’t abandon me, please.”Fred said in a cool voice.
“I’ll never leave you Fred,our love is till eternity, nothing can come in between us.”she said and Fred quickly hugged her.
“So when do you think we should get married? we’re not getting younger remember.”Fred broke the brief silence that ensued when they hugged.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Let’s not talk about marriage for now Fred.My parents have not approved our relationship yet, i’m still trying to make them believe that I love you so much but they wouldn’t listen to me.Instead,they cautioned me to stop seeing you,they said you will k!Il me someday.”Cyndi said nervously.
“What!?Did you tell them about the nightm@re?”Fred exclaimed.
“No I didn’t tell them anything Fred.The truth is that my mum had similar dream,you k!lIed me in her dream.”
“What!? this is serious! I’ll rather k!Il myself than to watch myself kïlI you.I can never……”Fred paused as he felt his heart bleed.
“You shouldn’t bother about that Fred, it’s just a dream and nothing more…..”Cyndi said sympathetically.
“Fred! Fred!! Fred!!!”They heard someone called as she ran swiftly towards them.
It was Ada, Fred’s neighbor.
“What is it Ada! why are you cry!ng??”Fred asked curiously when he saw her pan!cking.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“It’s your mother, she’s dy!ng,we have to take her to the hospital.”
“My mother! oh God please help me, I don’t even have a dime on me .
You know what, Cyndi will go with you to the hospital, take my mother to the hospital so I can sell the plot of land in order to raise money for the bills.”Fred said and he left while Cyndi and Ada ran in the opposite directio.
Grace and her husband, Mr Paul sat in front of their house discussing.They munched the maize that Grace prepared earlier .
“Guess who I saw today Grace??”Mr Paul asked as he munched the maize.
“Who was that my husband?you know i’m very terrible in guesswork.”Grace said impatiently.
“I met my childhood friend Samuel,the son of the late Mr Reuben,the man who fell off the palm tree.”
“Ohhh I remember him my husband, I can vividly remember he was your very best friend those years before he travelled to the city.”Grace said.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Yes Grace.He told me that his son want a wife and he wished our daughter can be his daughter in-law.I hope you still remember that his cute and intelligent son,his phonetics almost got me cr@zy the last time he visited.”Mr Paul said with a smile.
“This is a very big opportunity my husband,but you know our daughter, she will never agree to that.What the dibia said the other time still baffles me, that they are inseparable.”
“She must….”before Mr Paul could finish speaking,he saw Fred running towards them.
He quickly jerked up from his seat as Fred ran closer.
“What are you doing here young man??
“Please sir, you’re the only hope I have now, my mother is seriously s!ck and I don’t have any money to pay her hospital bills.I have a piece of land, I want to sell it to you in exchange for money, other people are not willing to buy, that’s the reason I came here, please help me.”Fred said te@rfully as he kept panting.
Mr Paul looked at his wife who nodded slowly in agreement.
“Come with me.”Mr Paul said and he went inside and Fred followed him.
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
Cyndi and Ada sat beside Fred’s mother bed, they encouraged and massaged her body gently.
The doctor have not attended to Fred’s mother because no money had been deposited for treatment.Cyndi had pleaded with them to commence treatment and promise to pay as soon as possible but they objected.
After she pleaded and they didn’t listen to her, She and Ada decided to keep Fred’s mother busy by encouraging and massaging her body before Fred’s arrival.
“I promise you’ll be fine mama, nothing is going to happen to you.”Cyndi said.
“Where’s my son? I need to talk to him.”Fred’s mother said faintly.
“He’ll be here in no time mama,he went to get some money.”Ada replied.
“Hope he didn’t sell that land , that land will be his only means of survival while i’m gone, I don’t want my son to suffer…”Fred’s mother said as te@rs rolled down her eyes.
“Mama,he is not going to suffer and you will be fine, nothing will happen to you, please don’t cry mama.”Cyndi said.
“Take good care of my son Cyndi you’ve been a very good help and support to my son and I.Please do me the favor of taking care of him.”
HAUNTED BY MY BOYFRIEND’S GHOST : EPISODES 1 – 10
“Mama…. the doctor will be on their way, I have given them some money.”Fred said the moment he walked into the room.
“My son….”Fred’s mother called.She paused when she looked into his eyes and saw him sl@ughtering Cyndi’s body.
“No…no… no……”she said weakly.She inhaled deeply and gave up the gh0st.
S@dly, Fred’s mother had d!ed before they made any attempt to call the doctor.
