"Erasta, Erasta!!", "Oh oh what is it again?", "Wake up, it's morning".
"So? Please let me sleep a bit". Martina looked at her friend shaking her head then an idea popped into her and she giggled covering her mouth getting a bucket of water she poured it on her face at that point the sleep in Erasta's eyes vanished.
"What did you do that for?", She spranged up from the bed immediately,"you didn't want to get up ", "so?", "I had to do something, you know we don't have food stuffs in the house again and the rent needs to pay, it's expiring soon".
Martina lamented,"Gosh, so that's your reason for disturbing my beautiful sleep, it's your time to find the money for us, I'm so exhausted after yesterday, the little I got we used it for last night's dinner".
"I know but am scared what if someone drags the money from me or kills me?", "Oh my", Erasta smacked her head with her hand shaking her head.
"Stop being scared, you're such a scared cat", "no am not","yes you are", "no am not","yes you are". Martina takes a pillow and hits her with it Erasta also does the same, feathers comes out of their pillows littering their little apartment.
They fall on the bed laughing,"now just look at the mess you have made", "you started it", Erasta replied.
"It's your turn to do the chores", Martina reminded. Erasta rolls her eyes, "do it for me please", "you are not serious", "pwetty please", she said pouting her lips and Martina laughed.
"Okay fine", Martina said. "That's why I love you", Erasta hugs her.
"And that's why I hate you", Martina scoffed. "You hate me?", Erasta said making puppy eyes at her.
"Stop that you look ugly when you do that", "I hate you", Erasta said.
"I hate you too", Martina said laughing.
"I wished we never met", "oh really?", "Just kidding Martina, you are my soul sister and I love you very much", "I love you too", Martina said hugging her and they disengaged.
"Am off", she said standing up walking to the door.
"Be careful", Erasta muttered falling back on her wet bed.
"I really hate this girl, arghh she ruined my sleep, I wonder if I can go back to the mansion and see that handsome man again in my dream", she wondered aloud..

"Tina, I need to go out for some fresh air, will be back soon", Erasta said wearing her hoodie.
"Don't stay long Babe you know I get bored without you here", Martina replied.
"Yeah, I will be back soon", "stay out of trouble", "huh?", "You heard me", Martina said rolling her eyes. Erasta scoffed at her statement before going out.
"Stay out of trouble, like she's my mum tsk", Erasta muttered to herself while she played with the can she saw on the pathway till she heard some noises coming from a delapilated building.
"No Mike, please don't do this".
"Please am begging you", a lady cried.
"Shut up", the so called Mike slapped her.
Her cries were reduced to silent sons as Mike held her two hands with his huge hand and used his other hand to pull down his trousers and widened her legs.
She kept on pleading til he punched her with his hand and she was bleeding from her wounded lips.
"Arghh", she cried out as he thrusted roughly into her.
"Bang bang bang", came a sound on the man's head, Erasta was hitting him with a big stick.
He immediately pulled out of the woman and turned to her holding his head.
He tried punching her but she ducked it and kicked him in his groin.
"Ahh", the man cried out in pains holding his groin as he staggered kneeling down.
She gave him a punch in the face breaking his nose his nose as he fell on the cold floor painfully.
"Who.. are.. you", he managed to say despite his blurry vision since he was gradually losing blood.
"Your worst nightmare", she said stepping on his face crushing his skull.
Blood splashes everywhere, "NO!!!", The woman screamed.
Erasta was confused,"no for what?", She couldn't help but ask.
"You just killed my husband", Erasta eyes widened.
"You mean this bloody idiot is your husband?", She asked and the woman slowly nodded going towards the dead man.
"Yes, he was just drunk, who asked you to come in? Who?", She yelled.
Erasta was utterly suprised, she supposed to be thanking her for saving her not yelling at her.
"Am reporting you to the police", the woman said looking at her with reddened eyes.
Just that name brought shivers down her spine.
"Po.. Po.. police", she shuttered in fear.
In a twinkle of an eye, Erasta jumped off the window falling on her feet, she ran as fast as her legs could carry her.
***M&E apartment**
"Tina, Tina", Erasta shouted. She could barely breathe as she ran into the house.
"What is it?", Martina asked looking worried.
The police are after me", she cried.
"What!! What have you done this time Erasta? Didn't I warn you to stay out of trouble?", Martina asked.
"I did but I had to save someone and now am in this mess".
"Hmm.. what do we do now?", "Let's run away".
Martina looked at her shocked before she could say anything, the police siren was heard outside.
"Police!!", Tina exclaimed.
"What have you done please tell me".
"No questions, we need to hide", Erasta said looking around.
"Hide where? We are surrounded,the police are after you we can't hide anywhere", Martina replied.
Erasta looked at her and smiled, pushing her bed a little a big hole which could fit two people was seen.
"Erasta", Martina gasped.
"Hurry we don't have much time, let's hide in here".
Erasta and Martina went in and pushed the bed back in place as it wasn't too heavy.
