***************************************
The sound of gunshots was the first thing I heard, I jerk awake, i realize I must have slept off, I stand up and am immediately jerked back.
"Shh, don't make any noise, it's agang war, they will kill anybody they see"
Am instantly scared, o my God.
"They will leave soon enough when the police shows up, just be quiet".
I nod, this goes on for quite a while, I keep hearing the gunshots, sometimes shouts of Pain . Sometimes people speaking Yoruba.
I can't believe my first night in Lagos and am spending it crouched under a shed with a man that smells like yesterday's sweat

. My life.
Soon enough I hear the sound of running foots step coming towards our direction
I instantly tense, am going to die!
Am too young to die.
I feel the security guard beside me tense too.
The footsteps pass and I let out a shaky breath. Oh thank God.
I spoke too soon because another set of footsteps comes running again but this time they don't pass, they stop, infact if feels like that are actually coming towards the she'd am in.
I muffle my whimper when the tarpaulin is drawn back and a man enters.
He is exactly how I will imagine a gangster to be.
He looks surprised to see us and immediately points a gun at us.
"If you shout I will blow a hole through both of your heads"
I nod while lifting my hands in a sign of easy.
He nods while still training his gun in us, he cocks his head and seems to be listening for something.
He teases when the first set of feet comes back, I don't know how I know it was the first guys but I just do.
"You are sure you didn't see anyone pass through here"
This question is asked by a person outside and I instantly get that the person outside must be a security operative.
"Yes boss, no one went through here, Simon took out a guy that passed out back"
By took out I think he meant killed, oh sweet Lord.
The man before us seems to know this person they took out because he instantly tenses and I know that if it wasn't dark I would have seen pain flash through his eyes.
"Ok, get Jerri and the rest of the guys, today's operation was a burst, get the cargo and let's go, the local police will deal with clean up"
"Yes boss"
The other guy walks away, I don't know what made him do it, I really don't.
The security guard shouts and calls for the man outside and instantly he is shot in the head, I feel warm blood spray on my face.
Jesus.
The men outside run towards our shed but gangster has already begin to run away, I cry as I see the security guard is dead.
O my God.
The tarpaulin is whipped back for the second thing this night but I don't care, am crying so hard I can't breath.
I look up with tear filled eyes and I see a man staring down at me, it's then I realized I must have slumped down.
When he speaks I don't understand what he says but I recognize his voice as the one being called boss.
"Are you ok miss?"
I nod negative still crying.
"Did you see the man?"
I can't reply and I realize am gulping in air, I think I will faint.
The man kneels down and embraces me.
"Shh, little one,shh, it will be fine."
I don't think it ever will be fine.
