Devil came visiting me within 12hours!
Good morning great friends and amazing people, it's really been a while since I dropped my article, well for sometime now I have not really been active because of the present financial condition and challenges I found myself of late, I have been battling with lots of personal issues and challenges at my work place, my family and within me. The story I am about to share with you is what I am currently facing right now and it's a true life event that is happening to me right now, it all started yesterday. In fact it has really been a hell of a month for me and yesterday incident was the highest of it all. Up till this moment of sharing this story, I am still finding a way to see how I can settle my present financial challenge I am having with my landlord as he left my apartment yesterday evening in anger without a word to me. **Disclaimer**: *Please my story is not in any way shared here as a means to extort money from anybody, rather this is to inform this great family of mine of my present state of condition since we see ourselves as one family of great readers. Please your personal assistance, advise, opinion and suggestions is really needed by me to help me pull through from this present situation I have found myself.* ****MY STORY**** Oh! What am I going to do right now? I have thoroughly searched all my belongings and the entire room yet I can't find my missing money. My entire savings I withdrew together with my November and December salaries I collected from where I do a contract work as a fashion designer yesterday gone, I can't find it again. Could it be that I lost my money on my way back from work? Or did someone steal the money from my pocket as I was trying to hustle my way to enter the moving bus going to the city where I live after my work closed? God! What's is happening? All these were going through my mind as I have turned my room upside down when suddenly I heard a loud knock on my door, to my greatest surprise it was my landlord who came to collect his house rent that I was supposed to pay him 4months ago which I promised him to come yesterday in the evening to collect, as he kept knocking on my door, I didn't know what to do, I was so confused because I have already pleaded with him some days ago to come today and take his money which has long overdue for me to pay. I was confused and lost all my thought on the next line of action to take inorder to make my landlord understand my present predicament, immediately I peeped through the eye of my door key and saw how serious his face was and how ready he was to break my door if I waste another second without opening the door as he was knocking. I hurriedly responded to his knock by asking who was at the door, he replied and said, I am your landlord! Please open your door and give me the house rent you promised to give me today, I have come for it. I opened the door and immediately he stretched out his hand and said, please can I have your house rent money? I was speechless and was moping at him for some minutes and he repeated the second time, please can I have your house rent Mr Patrick? Since you opened your door you have been looking at me without uttering any word to respond to my comment. What's going on with you? After he finished asking me question and I opened up to him to narrate my ordeal, how I lost the money I was supposed to give him today as I promised him some days ago. As I was still narrating my story to the landlord, out of anger my landlord shunned me immediately, stopped me from what I was trying to explain to him and quickly left my apartment. At that time my heart started beating faster than it should, fear gripped me because I was really not having any idea of the next line of action my landlord was planning to take because I failed to keep to my own words and agreement I had with him before now due to loss of the money I was supposed to give him today. As I was about locking my door to wait for the next action my landlord was planning to take, immediately I heard another knock on my door and because I was so afraid, I refused to check nor ask who was knocking, when the person knocking noticed I wasn't responding he kept knocking until I opened the door and behold it was Mr Ifeanyi who borrowed me some money to settle my mother's health issue, oh! You are inside and you refused to open the door right? Well, I have come to take the money you borrowed from me and I must not leave your house without the money. I began to beg him to understand my present condition and what I am experiencing at the moment because of the money I lost today. Mr. Ifeanyi refused to accept my plead and immediately said he will not leave my house without taking something that worth the amount of money he gave me. I pleaded and pleaded yet he refused and went straight to my wall television I was using, carried it and left my house. The television current price in the market is $235.00 and I was owning him $220.00 which I used to take my mother to the hospital for an emergency hip correction operation two months ago. Her surgery took a lot of money from me. As I was trying to calm my mind down and understood what was going on, my phone started ringing and when I picked it was my younger brother from the village, he was crying on the phone that my mother is been rushed to the village clinic for an emergency, I asked him what happened, he said our mother just fainted while she was trying to cook dinner and has been rushed to the hospital, the doctor is demanding for some cash deposit before they can commence treatment on her, you know our Nigerian system and how they handle patients. I have not slept all through the night till this morning, I am confused right now and really don't know what to do. I have called my landlord and he has not picked my calls ever since he left my apartment last night, I don't know his next action, my younger brother said the doctor just administered some Injections on her to revive her and I must come immediately to make deposit so they can run some tests on her and commence full treatment.
I am seriously losing my mind right now and don't know where to start from. Please your advice is personally needed by me because my landlord has threatened to evict me with a quit notice some months ago and I pleaded with him to give me little time to come up with the house rent. This one he left my place without a word, I don't know my fate and right now, my mother's condition is really very critical and I have no money anywhere with me. What do I do? ***Thank you for reading my story, God bless you 🙏 Rafd9828!***
