Beriyuy: No! What will people say? Don't you see that it is not good. I just want to keep you happy every time.
Lukong: I have an idea on how we can stay together forever without any problems from your husband.
Berinyuy: What is the idea ? I hope it is not something stupid.
Lukong: Sweetheart, I know this will disturb you but, I will first like you to tell me the person you really love. Me or your husband.
Berinyuy: Please stop it. You know I love you, the person you’re calling my husband, don’t you see that he’s older than me ? My parents forced me to marry him telling me that it’s our tradition. He’s not my choice.
Lukong: Ok, now I understand. Let’s do something very fast.
Berinyuy: What ?
Lukong: Let’s eliminate him.
Berinyuy: What ? Kill him ? You’re not serious. What will people say ?
Lukong: Ok, if you don’t want it that way, you better forget all about me and go to your husband.
Berinyuy: Ok , sweetheart. But I don’t think people will know about this.
Lukong: Leave that to me. Let’s go to my traditional doctor. He’s the person who’s protecting me and can help me in anything.
Berinyuy: Ok, let’s go.
(They arrives to the traditional doctor)
Lukong: I salut you my Lord.
My Lord: Lukong, how are you? Wait a minute. What do you people want ?
Lukong: My Lord, there is somebody who is disturbing my wife, my wife is not concentrating on me any more.
My Lord: Where is your wife, Lukong ?
Lukong: She’s there my Lord. Let me call for her. Sweetheart, come inside.
Berinyuy: Good day my Lord.
My Lord: You’re welcome my daugther. Your husband is telling me that somebody is disturbing you from him. Who is the person.
Berinyuy: Yes my Lord. This man, my parents forced me to marry him and I don’t love him, so I will like to forget everything about him.
My Lord: Are you telling me the truth ? When the Gods are demonstrating, they don’t look behind. Now, tell me what you want me to do for you.
Berinyuy: I want to elimate him my Lord.
My Lord: Where is he now ?
Berinyuy: He travelled to Yaounde my Lord and I want him to die in a car accident while coming.
My Lord: Consider it done my daughter. But you should think twice again.
Berinyuy: Ok my Lord. I’ve already thought it over before coming.
My Lord: You can now go and wait for the news from Yaounde.
Lukong: Thank you my Lord. How much am I paying my Lord ?
My Lord: You can go. The Gods don’t need any payment. Just wait for the work to be done.
Lukong: Thank you my Lord.
Berinyuy: Thank you my Lord.
(They are going back to Lukong’s house and Berinyuy was so afraid)
Berinyuy: I’m afraid sweetheart. People will talk about this.
Lukong: Come on sweetheart. Don’t worry. I will handle everything. You should not bother yourself. Once he’s dead, nobody will talk to you again, even if they do, they’ll get tired.
Berinyuy: It’s true. But please let’s wait for that to happen first before I come to your house.
Lukong: Wait for what? Wait for his corps? I can’t. I want you to come next week.
Berinyuy: Ok sweetheart, I’ve heard. I will do so next week but, I will not come to the house tomorrow.
(He arrives Yaounde at about 11 p.m.)
Father: Njo, are you there? It's me, your father.
Njodzeka: Father, welcome. I did not know you were to come Dad. I hope everything is all right back home. How is Mama and the people in the village?
Father: They're all doing fine, I got your letter and couldn't help coming. Where's Fonyuy at this hour of the night?
Njodzeka: Father, I've not seen Fonyuy for the past two months. The last time she came here, before I wrote that letter, she came with somebody that took away her belongings. She did not tell me anything. I tried to ask but the man shouted at me that I didn’t have the right to ask her any questions. That he's taking her to Douala. She told the man that I'm just her cousin and that she came and took her belongings from here to look for a house. Dad, that's what made me write the last letter, because Fonyuy was going mad after that man.
Father: So, she's in Douala now! The town I here is very big? This girl! A place I've never been to in my life is the place she has gone all alone !
Njodzeka: Yes, Dad, but I don't know where we can find her. She refused to give me her telephone number. However, there's a friend of hers who told me that she saw her in Douala and that she was not looking good going by her appearance. I think we should see her so that she can direct us to the area where we can find her.
(Njo leaves and goes to Nyuydzes')
Njodzeka: Nyuydze, good morning. It's me, Njodzeka. Can I come in?
Nyuydze: Yes, come in Njo. How are you today?
Njodzeka: I'm doing fine. My dad is here and he would like to see you.
Nyuydze: Your dad? Please let's go. You know, I don't know your dad. How is he? When did he come?
