He met her on his first day on the job
His employer had insisted that all the staff members must undergo two weeks training before resumption
It was a new Television station
The training started on a Monday morning
She walked into the hall at about midday
She was wearing a skirt

so short that all the men in the room practically paused whatever they were doing at her entrance
He was the only one seating on a desk close to the rear exit
She promptly walked up to him and sat right next to him
The skirt was a distraction
As much as he tried to keep his face

on the marker board
He found his eyes darting to the long spotless legs over and over again
She noticed his dilemma and decided to help out by removing her handbag from the desk and placing it right over her thigh
After she did that, his eyes settled down
They got talking because

she needed to befriend him so that she can tacitly send him on errands while they were in that hall
She didn't want to stand up again because of all the attention her skirt was courting, so she told him her name and tried to be friendly
When they were to have lunch, he got it for

her and also ran some other errands
He knew what she was doing but he didn't mind
The skirts were so scandalous that he felt he was doing all the men in the room a favour by ensuring that she doesn't get to walk around again
Later that evening, she asked if he could give her a

ride
He said he didn't own a car
She looked at him, laughed mischievously, and shook her head
They finished the training for that day and he packed his stuff to leave
She said her goodbye but didn't make any attempt to stand up
About 10 minutes later, while he was still walking

towards the main road, a car drove by, and there she was
Comfortably seated in the passenger's side of the car
Chatting with the driver
He really wanted to sleep with her
It was the only thing on his mind
He felt he could have gotten a better chance to do that if he had a car

she could have been sitting next to him that moment and they could have been going somewhere to do whatever they wanted to each other
He thought about her until he slept that night
The next day, she got to the hall before him
This time she was wearing a pair of leggings that kept

him crossing his legs every five minutes
Again they sat together
He rehearsed in his head how to convince her to be his babe
He had no intention of marrying her or anything like that
He just felt she was asking for it and he would be a slacker if he looked the other way
Even if

she would say no
He wanted it on the record that he tried his luck
They were given an hour break by 12 noon
He went out to get them some food
When he returned to the hall, he found her praying
There was a sheet of paper with over one hundred prayer bullets in it on the desk in

front of her
She prayed throughout the break period
He sat beside her silently as he ate his lunch but he couldn't help but overhear her destroying evil altars and quenching fiery darts of the enemy
When she was through, he asked her if she was a Christian
She said yes
He said ok

Later that evening, they left the hall together
When he wanted to start walking towards the main gate, she said "Wait for a little while, we might get a lift"
He stood and sure enough, a car came along and stopped to pick her
He quickly jumped in the back seat and listened as the

sharp guy that picked her up started chatting her up
He didn't know when they got to the main road
She turned around and said "You can drop here pls!"
Oh!
He had thought they would be dropping together
He said Thank you and alighted from the car
The driver drove on with her in

another direction
Again he thought about her all night
He didn't know if to love her or hate her
There was an intense feeling at the bottom of his belly whenever he thought of her
He couldn't describe it
It was a love hate thing
Like "You're a slut" and "Be my slut"
He was in a

relationship
His fiancee was observing the NYSC in another state
The lust had its hook in him ina bad way, he had stopped calling and picking his fiancee's call from the moment he met this girl
He knew there was no way he would talk to his fiancee without spilling the beans or

talking about this new hot chick
Once they discuss it, he would feel duty-bound not to pursue his earlier objective and he really wanted to sleep with the lady
It was the one thing he thought about all the time
When they got to the office the next day, he made his move
She was

seated right next to him when a phone call came in
It was from his mother
He listened intently for a while until his mother stopped talking and hung up the phone then he started talking loud enough for her to hear of a huge sum of money that had been paid into his account as his

share of his late father's estate
He acted quite convincingly
He pricked her interest in a way
She began to ask questions and make funny faces at him
He didn't say anything
When they closed that evening, she didn't ask him to wait for a lift
They walked together to the bus stop

She followed him to his crib
He didn't even have to ask
She practically followed the money (The impression of it) by insisting that she would not leave him alone until he told her the full story behind the phone call
It was a lame excuse but he played along
When they got to his

apartment
He told her a big fat lie about his father dying in a plane crash and the airline finally paying the family some huge compensation
He said his mother was just calling to inform him that his share of the money had been paid into his account
She bought the story
They went

for a stroll
She paid for the Suya they bought on the way back to his apartment
Somehow it got too late for her to go home
She called her mother she would be spending the night with a friend
He finally got what had consumed his thought for many days
It rained all night and he

fetched many buckets of water
She left his apartment early the next morning so that she should have her bath and change her clothes in time before resumption
He went to the office whistling and feeling cool with himself
He finally called his babe and told her he had been having a

hectic time with the new job
He expected the all-consuming thought of her to ebb once he had consummated the imagination
It always felt like that with the other ladies he had been with
Chemistry - sex- walkaway
The moment he saw her walking into the hall thirty minutes into their

first training session of the day, he realized he was in trouble
His heart was beating as if it wanted to fall off his chest
The only thing he felt like doing was to jump on top of her and start fetching water all over
The thing really got him in the wrong place
He was distracted

throughout
Later that evening, a car picked them up
When they got to the bus stop, she told him to go ahead and wait for him at home
She drove away with the driver (The same guy that picked her the other day)
He waited until she got to his house by 10:30pm
He had almost ran mad

with worry
When she walked in, he fell on his knees and started crying
"Please don't do that to me again"
That was what he heard himself saying over and over again
She pulled him up and kissed him and said "It was just a tease, I didn't know you'd take it so serious"
He could

only nod.
He was powerless around her
Her wish was God's wish
He forgot totally about his girlfriend and relatives
She was the center of the universe
When she asked him about the inheritance, he told her the truth
She slapped him and told him to kneel down and face the wall
She

left her there all day
As punishment for the lie, she collected his first salary and made him wait outside the hotel when she went to sleep with the other guy
He didn't care what she did as long as she didn't leave him
He was in love for the first time and it was bitter sweet

just as he had heard
His fiancee was the one who called the attention of his mother to the change
His mother found out what had happened and the family decided it was not natural
Prayer and fasting went on day and night for 17 days
Eventually, she got tired of him and walked out

of his flat
She also resigned from the job for a better one (She was employed as a presenter with the TV station they were both working with but got employed as a news anchor at a more popular TV station
In all, he was in the well for four months and twenty-seven days
It was hell

When his fiancee returned from NYSC, she brought him to the brother in Jeans and T-shirt for prayers
He said he was a born again Christian, he even spoke in tongues but he was afflicted so easily
Why?
He didn't walk in the light
The lust of the flesh led him away from the light

The Brother in Jeans and T-shirt prayed with him
He was delivered from the effect of the demonic charm working on him
He said he didn't think the lady could engage in the use of charms because of the way she prayed every day by noon
He was wrong
Religion has its own demons

Flee!
