SHE Spent Four Good Years Of Her Life Waiting And PAYING For The Money… #story #folklore #folk – Ty
That evening, Sophia sat on her small veranda killing grand knots when her phone rang. It was Chuki. Immediately, Sophia started smiling. For 4 years, that man has been her dream, her peace, her laughter, her reason to believe that love still exists. She quickly dropped whatever she was doing and answered the call. Baby, come on.
You didn’t call me since morning. Hope all is well. But instead of Chok’s normal sweet voice, she heard him crying. Seriously crying. Sophia, Sophia, my mother. Oh my mother. Sophia. She collapsed. What? Jesus. What happened? Where are you now? I’m at the hospital. The doctor said we must start treatment now or else my mother will die. I don’t even know what to do.
Oh god. Nothing will happen to her. Babe, which hospital? Let me start coming. No, no, no, no, no. This is not the time to start coming. You don’t need to come now. Just pray for her, please. My love, I just need help. The doctor said we need 800,000 for his surgery. 800,000. Yes, I’ve called my uncles, but they’re all giving me excuses.
You know, my father is no longer alive. I don’t know who else to ask. My sisters, they’re all struggling. They managed to bring the little they could, but I need the money ASAP. I don’t want to lose my mother. Please, Sophia. If my mother dies, oh God, I will not forgive myself. Sophia started shedding tears. She remembered [snorts] how his mother always loved her and was always kind with her.
Anytime she comes around, she’ll be calling her my wife, Tai, fine woman. My son have already found good thing. Without thinking twice, Sophia said to Chuki, “Don’t cry again, my love. I’ll find the money. I promise. I don’t have up to 800,000 in my account, but I have about 250,000 naira. I will forward it, but I know it’s not enough.
Okay, but I will make calls. I’ll find a way to raise the money.” Chok asked her to send the one she has so that they can commence treatment. Immediately Sophia ended the call. She sent the money. After sending to Jook 250,000 NRA, the last savings in her bank account, she then called her best friend, Ella. She explained everything to her.
But Ella wasn’t quite convinced. Sophia H, this your story sounds somehow eh? It sounds serious. I will not lie. But are you sure it’s not those fake emergency stories that they use now to scam people off their hard ear money? You know the format now? Come on Ella, I don’t expect you to be saying something like this.
Eh, you you know Choki now Chuki can never lie to me. It was his phone. His phone number. It was his voice I heard. Please, if you don’t have the money, you can as well tell me. Don’t try to discourage me from helping someone to stay alive. I just need to borrow money anyhow. Anyhow, okay, I will call you back. Give me a few minutes.
I’ll figure out something. When Ella ended the call, Sophia started calling her cousins, his friends in school, everyone on her contact list. And nobody gave her one ner. It was still Ella that called her back and told her that she cannot be able to raise 800,000 naira for her, but she knows where she can go and borrow the money and she’s going to pay back for a minimum of 1 year.
Sophia did not even think twice. She asked Ella to forward the details and Ella did so. It was an app and that was how Sophia filled out all the information they needed. Immediately they gave her the money. Within seconds, Sophia had already transferred the remaining balance to him. Immediately, almost immediately, Chok called her back.
My love Kai, God will bless you. The doctor had already started the surgery. If not for you, Kai, my mother would have died. Y. It was then that Sophia relaxed. Thank God. God. Oh, thank God that all my effort was not in vain. Just make sure mama gets well. I’ll put her in prayer. A complete two days. Sophia didn’t hear from Chuki.
Each time she called, his phone was always switched off. She started worrying. But on the third day, he finally sent her a message. Baby, the surgery went well. Please do. My God will bless you. My is stable now. I’ll call you later. Okay. I love you. Thank you, Jesus. That was what came out of Sophia’s mouth. She was really happy. Ah, thank God.
Ah, please tell Mama I’m praying for her. I love you, too. I can’t wait to see her smile again. Sophia texted him back. But Chok did not reply that night. But as days passed, Sophia began to feel very lonely. She missed his calls, his laughter, his early morning tests. Chicho can no longer call as he used to ever since he requested for the money and Sophia gave it to him.
Sophia had to start doing cleaning jobs during the weekend so that she can be able to pay the monthly fee from the money she took. She was meant to pay over 100,000 every single month and her salary cannot even cover half of it. So she was forced to start doing cleaning for people, washing for people every weekend so that she can be able to raise the money.
At some point in selling on her, Sophia is always tired. She’s always weak. All because she want to meet up so that she could pay the loan she collected. Sophia and Toki had known each other for four good years. They have dated for four complete good years. They had planned their lives together.
They have shared their dreams. And Chichok promised her that once he is financially stable, he will marry her straight. And Sophia being the understanding girlfriend had waited patiently with love and hope. She trusted Chuki completely whenever they talking about cheating men. Sophia believed that Chuki was different and that Chok loved her so much not to betray her.
The next time Ella saw Sophia, she couldn’t recognize her. Babe, what is what is wrong with you? You look old. Abby, is my eye deceiving me? I saw you. What’s wrong? You don’t look good. I’m fine, J. I just need you rest. I’ve been working and working and working so I can cover up the depth from the money I took.
Now wow things we do for love I go love not be this kind of love my dear your own love not go try I don’t know why women like you ladies like this you guys lie to the mu for love look at how you just rush and go and borrow that kind of huge amount of money for a man a man that not put ring on your finger what have that guy even done for you that you have to go and borrow such a huge amount of money and give him anyways I’m not saying that you did wrong or see My friend, you did well.
You did what you think is good. But sometimes we learn from experience. I just pray that you don’t regret this your decision. Sh. [snorts] Regardless, pay for your depth. Pay your busy. You are the one that put yourself in it. So pay for it. But don’t overwork yourself. You’re looking like like a lost puppy.
Go home and rest so that you will not faint. If you faint, oh, you see that your boyfriend okay? He will move into the next victim. I’m sorry. You’re not a victim. He will just get go and get married to another woman. That’s what I mean. Another week passed. Sophia couldn’t stop thinking about Chuk’s mother.
And Chuk has stopped even calling her completely. He doesn’t call. And whenever she calls, he won’t pick up. And even if he try and pick up, he’s always in a hurry to end the call, claiming he’s busy taking care of their sick mother. Sophia would send messages. Chuk will read and will never reply. Then she was really tired of the calls and not picking up and decided to call Chok’s younger sister Ada Ez has always been very kind, sweet, just like her mother towards her.
And she would always call her my sister-in-law and always hype her, not because she’s bad or trying to hide something, but because at this they genuinely loved her. Immediately at this they answered. Ah, sister Sophia, it’s been long. Yes, my dear. I just wanted to check up on mama. How is she feeling? Mama? Mama is fine.
Oh, so is she still in the hospital? Hospital? What are you talking about, Sister Sophia? Chok told me that your mother collapsed last week. I mean, so worried. So that’s why I’m calling. She he barely picks my call. So I decided to call you collapse hospital. H no no Sophia mama just returned from market trip this morning.
She went to Lagos very very early in the morning to to go and buy goods. My mom has never been in the hospital. Wait a you might be mistaken. Was your mother not sick few weeks ago? Auntie Sophia it’s not possible. No, mama is not sick. Mama is fine. In fact, she’s even complaining to me how expensive onions has become.
Can’t you hear her voice in the background? Mama is perfectly fine. If my brother told you that my mother was in the hospital, he’s I don’t know the reason why he said that, but I suggest you call him and ask him the reason why. Because my is here. She’s feeling well. She was never rushed to the hospital. Sophia thanked Adz and ended the call.
That night, she couldn’t sleep. She kept on replaying everything on her head. Wait, Toki called me. He told me he needed 800,000. H. And I went and begged and begged and begged just to give this man money. I got embarrassed while begging most of my friends and even went as far as borrowing. Now I’m paying heavily for it.
H what kind of a man will lie about his own mother? What kind of play is this? The next morning, Sophia rushed out of the house and went straight to go and see Ella. The moment Ella cited her, she knew something had happened. Sophia broke down in tears. I’m finished, Ella. ; ; He lied. Everything was a lie. His mother was never sick. Jesus.
Sophia, are you sure? I called Desa myself. I collected Adza’s number and she confirmed. In fact, I was hearing the mother’s voice laughing. Why would Chich do this kind of thing? Why would he put me in such a tight corner? What joy does he give him? Huh? Men. So, where did the money you gave to him go to? I don’t know.
I’ve been calling him throughout the whole night. His number is no longer going. He switched off and I’m finished. My dear, you can never be finished though. Li, do you think Jo scammed me? I’m not sure yet until the two of us find out what he used the money for. I don’t know. But for him to bring his mother lying about her sickness, that was going to extreo.
So, I think you should not act in a rush. Just calm down. Okay, we figure out what we can do. Have you visited him to find out what’s going on? Yes, I’m even tired of going there. The neighbors are now looking at me as a weird girlfriend. I’ve been to Chok’s house severally, and anytime I go there, Chok is not always around.
The neighbors will keep telling me he has not been around for weeks. [laughter] I’m tired. Ella begged her to calm down. Ella asked her to relax and don’t rush anything so that she will not regret her actions. They will get the money that she gave Shuk but right now she needs to calm down. Sophia decided to listen to Ella and calmed down even though she was deeply hurt by the betrayal and she had not really figured out where Toki went, what he did with the money.
Everything was still guessing, guessing, guessing, and Sophia was really running out of patience, but still decided to act normal. 3 weeks later, Sophia was at work when Ella rushed inside and started calling her. Sophia, come outside. What is it? What happened? Why do you look worried? Hm. If you see what I just discovered, my dear, you’ll be more worried than me.
See, who are you seeing in that wedding banner? Chok. Yes. Chok. And the bride’s name, Cynthia. This is your man’s photo and this is the bride’s photo. So, Chuk is getting married next week, Saturday. You know that my brother owns a printing press. So, they have already printed this thing about 2 weeks ago, but this was the one I saw on the trash.
Today, I decided to clean up my sister. I shock t that is not all h better hold your heart so that it will not come out of your body. I now went on Facebook and I searched about the girl home their pre-wedding pictures are all over her wall did not post even anything but the girl has been posting about them for a long time.
Just know that while you are dating your man 4 years ago, this girl in particular that Chok is getting married to, he met her one year ago. The story is on her Facebook wall. She was busy bloating, making mouth how she met her man and in less than one year he had already proposed and told them are getting married. Men know what they want. Don’t waste time with them.
Ch they hear them. You are here crying over a lost puppy while another woman is using him to do motivation. [snorts] So I guess that the 800,000 naira you borrowed him. H should I tell you where it is going to his wedding? Sophia’s eyes were filled with tears. What they have done their traditional marriage in case you don’t know the pictures the videos are all over her page.
So even that girl you are saying she’s so kind. She like you when you called her to ask about the mother. Why didn’t she tell you that her brother is getting married? Why didn’t she tell you that oh h your fiance as they claim to be calling you sister-in-law that he’s leading you to go and marry another person.
So you see the family is well aware of what he did. So you better buckle up because you’re going to get your money back. See that guy he will never go scotfree. Sophia started feeling dizzy. In fact, everything around her was just shaking. She couldn’t believe it. No, Ella. It can’t be. It can’t be. Chuk cannot do that kind of thing to me. He loves me. Only me.
Maybe when you see the white wedding happen in front of your eyes, your eye will open small. Because this one you shouting, it cannot be. It cannot be. You better stop it. So we are going to go to that white wedding. You will use your eye and see it. But let me tell you, let me just tell you, I thought this through.
I was able to sit myself down and think about the whole scenario before I came to you, Sophia. You’re not going to destroy the marriage. You’re not going to drag anything with him. You won’t call talks to come and scatter everything in the marriage. No, there is no need for that. That is wasting your strength and energy for the wrong thing.
Now all you need to do is to pick up the broken pieces of your life. See Jojo K had already married that woman traditionally. So even if you went and destroy the wife’s marriage h ceremony whatever the two of them is married they are already married you say they don’t marry there is nothing you can do.
So please for your own sanity, for your own peace of mind, do not think about revenge. Do not think about going to go and destroy things. No, we are going to have proof. You will go to that white wedding, get enough videos and pictures of your so-called boyfriend getting married to his wife.
That woman that is running mouth wouldn’t want his husband’s reputation and that of her own reputation to be ruined. I don’t think she knows about you. So, we’re going to use her as our prey. And if she does not comply, we’re going to go public and expose him. Just get ready. Do not do anything stupid that is my own.
Sophia collapsed on the floor there and started crying, screaming. She kept on screaming. She was screaming out her pain. She was in so much pain. She couldn’t hold it. She wasn’t even listening to what Ella was talking. She kept on screaming. It was Ella that held her down and asked her to calm down. I know how it feels.
Calm down. I gave that guy my money, my time, my resources, everything. Ella, this is how he paid me back. I getting married to another woman after 4 years. Is this not wickedness? Is this not wickedness? Please tell me any form of wickedness that pass this one. Tell me if he doesn’t want me, he would have told me.
I will just walk away. Why would he even come and scam me on top of it? I would go with you and I want to witness the wedding. Sophia made up her mind. And the next Saturday, Sophia and Ella went to the wedding venue. They just stood outside watching everything. Sophia’s eyes were full of tears. And Ella was beside her all throughout.
She stood there looking at the man she gave everything, her love, her trust, and her money. Ella then turned towards her. My sister, this is wickedness. But regardless, do not overreact. They took some videos and some pictures and they left. That night, Sophia cried her eyes out. She cried and cried and she couldn’t cry anymore.
She was really broken. What hurt her the most was that Choki didn’t just destroy her. He didn’t just steal from her, he stole her peace. But this time around, he wouldn’t steal her strength because her strength is the only power she has to fight whatever is going on around her. That night Sophia prayed to God and asked him to guide her on the best thing and the best way to go about this and let it be successful because Tuk can now go scotfree after doing such a thing to her.
One week later, Ella came to Sophia very happy. Sophia asked her what is going on and why she was so happy. Ella then told her the good news. Guess what, babe? I found out something. Something so sweet and delicious. What do you mean? H the main reason why your darling Chuk came and scammed you 800,000 just to give that foolish girl a befitting wedding, the wedding of her life, is because she is target the big fish. Her family is stinking rich.
and TJ was trying to look the bat too. That was why he scanned you off that money and also borrowed some money from the information I got. So Ella, what will I do with this information right now? How is it going to help me recover my money? Well, what if I tell you I also did a little digging around and I found out where Cincier live as in their family house.
You will go there and show them the proof that their darling son-in-law scammed you off your money just to go and marry their daughter. This family, they don’t like scandals. And I’m sure you will definitely make way more than 800,000 that you give to him. Ella, are you sure this will work out? I hope I will not go there to go and embarrass myself. Come on.
You think I’ll just come here and be giving information without being sure? I’ve already consulted a lawyer and they said I should do this. I should tell you to do this and they will also have a written agreement with you. All the things you’re going to see, they will be so frightened that you will go out and talk and their daughter’s wedding that just trended all over social media will get ruining before it even started.
The marriage will just fume. So my dear, get ready to recover your money back. Sophia made up her mind and decided to trust her friend. 3 days later, she now went to Cynthia’s family house. She waited beside the gates. Few minutes later, a tall man that looked exactly like Cynthia walked out. He was coming out to open the gate so that he can drive out.
When Sophia greeted him, “Good day, sir. I want to talk to you. Can I help you? No, you can’t help me. But I can help you. What do you mean? I want to speak to you and your parents inclusive. My parents are not in the country right now. I’m the only one here. So, you can talk. I cannot talk in front of here. We need to sit because it’s a long story. Fine.
I’m about to go out and grab some food. Maybe you can follow me to the restaurant. Sure. My taxi will follow you behind. No problem. And that was how the two of them went to a nearby restaurant and sat. Who are you, young lady? My name is Sophia. And what I want to talk to you about? It is about your sister’s husband.
Chokia then showed him her phone. Take a look at that screenshot. That is a debit alert. Two debit alerts. One is 250,000 and the other is 550,000. So what should I do with the debit alert? You want me to pay you 800,000? No sir, allow me to land first. your son-in-law was my boyfriend and he called me suddenly one fateful day that his mother is in the hospital need an emergency surgery and they need 800,000 and I decided to give him my last saving all the savings of my life 250,000 NRA on top of that I went and borrow from an
app 550,000 which I am still paying to today just one week After I gave Chuki that money, I figured out that he lied about the mother’s sickness and that Chuk is getting married. A man I dated for 4 years. Are you serious? You mean he told you his mother was dying just to collect 800,000 from you? Yes.
This is our chart. Sophia showed him proof of the chat the two of them had after she sent him the money. I asked about the mother’s surgery and he said he went well look for look look at it yourself you can see I’m not lying right by the time I found out that he used my sweat to go and marry another woman I was really angry I wanted to embarrass him at his marriage and all that I decided to play very very matured and don’t go that kind of way this boy is mad why would he scam you just for But that wedding you see was sponsored. 90% was
from my own father. He didn’t even contribute much. The little we asked him to contribute he doesn’t even have it. My sister was rooting for him all. I knew it. I knew it. All this all these poor people with a lot of demand. I didn’t trust that fool. But my sister was in love and my father sponsored that wedding 90%. He didn’t bring anything.
So why did he scam you of 800,000? Well, I need compensation. No, I need my money back. He blocked me everywhere. The house I used to know that he lives in, he had moved out from there. That is why I came here. I will go to social media. Eh, I will file a lawsuit, bam on his head, and it’s going to affect your sister, affect her marriage, even destroy it before even started.
So, that’s why I came to your family house hoping to meet your parents. We’re going to settle this amicably. All I want is my money. I want my money plus interest because the loan I collected the app from, I paid interest on top. Chuk can have your sister for all I care. I don’t care anymore.
I’ve moved on with my life. 4 years wasted. It is still better than getting married to the wrong man. So if he can see money like this and change immediately, he can do worse when he gets married to me. So thank God your sister have already carried that burden out of me. What I need is my money or I would drag everybody on social media.
We provre this matter the way it should be treated. I will not take it lightly. As for your money, you’re going to get your money back. I personally will pay your money back. Don’t worry. I need you to give me a photocopy of this proof. Yes. And your contact. I will contact you let’s say 3 days from now.
Please do not do anything. Don’t go to social media. Um just have your lawyer stand by. Okay? Just just just give me the proof. That’s all I need. Sophia gave him everything she had. It was just photocopy. Sir, you can have this ones. And that was how Cynthia’s brother did not even eat the food. He came to the restaurant to eat.
He stood up angrily and gave Sophia about $600 here. This is all I have with me. You can go change it. Okay. Um, this is off the book, like off the record. Do you understand? I will contact you for your money. Yeah, just just calm down. Give me some days. Sophia was so excited. $600. Uhhuh. This one don’t cover the money I borrowed now.
She happily left the restaurant with the money. Cintia’s brother then visited his sister and teacher K opened the door. He was so happy to see his in-law. Ah, my in-law-in-law. How you day now? The next thing that landed on his face was a punch. [snorts] What happened? Why are you punching me? You just scam a young lady named Sophia 800,000 just to get married to my sister.
Cynthia came out and was confused. Bro, what are you doing? Why you hitting my husband? This one is not a husband. This one is fraud. He scammed a woman he dated 4 years and left her for you without even saying goodbye. He even scammed her on top. Have you heard about that before? No, Chi cannot do such a thing.
You see, I’ve always told you I have good instincts, but you never listen. Now, this foolish human being came and deceived you, got married to you all because of your inheritance, and you feel I don’t have sense. When I tell you to go for a man in your class, you refuse. This one came and sway you off with sweet talk and you feel like you’ve landed yourself a good husband.
Oh, yeah. Check out the proof the ex-girlfriend brought to me. By the time Cintia saw everything, she couldn’t believe her eyes. Chok, did you scam your ass? 800,000 naira. The same week we got married. Why? I practically gave you my ATM card. I asked you to use it for everything you wanted.
Why scam her off her money? See, it’s not it’s not what you guys think. Eh, two of us have unfinished business. She was owing me. She was doing me. That’s why I took the money. And you also lied that your mother was having a surgery while your mother is at home eating pepper soup, enjoying herself. That was the only way I could get my money back from her.
I’ve supported her dream for years. That was the only way I could take the money. Hey, I never knew you can be this wicked. So, you dated a lady for 4 years. You didn’t marry her. And because of the little things you supported her with, decided to collect the money back by scamming her off. You’re wicked. Oh, I never knew I married a man this heartless.
Please, it’s not what you think, babe. Cint, please don’t do this. Our marriage is barely a month. You can’t just ruin everything. Your reputation. Oh, don’t worry about my reputation. My brother really warned me against you, but I never listened. Now I know why. He kept telling me to go for guys that on the same level with me.
You guys are just blood suckers. You’re wicked. If you can do this to a woman that stayed with you faithfully for 4 years, what can you not do to me? It’s obvious you are here for the money. It’s obvious you’re here to come and scam me off my own hard earned money. The inheritance my father gave to me.
It is obvious this is what you came to do. And I’m sorry it will not work out. You see that 800,000 NRA you collected, you’re going to put interest on it making it 1 million and you’re going to send it to that girl. If not, you are going to have a very good one room and palace cell inside the prison. Try me and see. TJ was begging, but Cynthia’s mind was already made up.
The things were thrown out of the house that fateful day and they forced him to make the transaction. Sophia and Ella was seated laughing, teisting on the way she was able to collect $600 when she received a credit alert of 1 million NRA from Chuki. She was so shocked. She then showed Ella.
The two of them started jumping up. Very happy that finally she won her battles and she recovered her money. Tok was thrown back to the streets where he belong. Two weeks later, Jojo came back to come and beg Sophia so that they will go back to the way they used to be. Sophia was really shocked. Hi, you don’t have shame.
H God, so you came back here to come and talk to me after what you did. Huh? You are very shameless. No, go and look for a new victim. Should have known that. I can’t even take you back. If a whole sincere could not take you back after all the money they wasted on a wedding, you think me I will take you back or forbid and never go and lick my vomit.
You are my vomit and you remain where you are. Get out of here before I call the police on you. Sophia moved on with her life and with the money paid, she was able to leave her work that is barely paying her anything to set up a good business for herself. Besties, I hope you enjoy this story.
