The baby must have being shocked by the electric. he quickly disconnected the whole light in the house. while Mrs Adeseye grabbed Ebenezer. He was black from head to toe, the cloth he wore was burnt beyond recognition, He was as stiff as a log. He was now weightless, Ebenezer was cold dead.Jesu Jesu Jesu!!!(Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!) Those were the words Oluomo was chanting as he ran outside to call neighbors to help. People gathered immediately. Within five minutes tears were flowing from people's eyes. lamentations came from the mouth of others. Mrs Adeseye was held by hefty men as neighbors took the boy to the police station to get a report. "What are you doing here exactly??" a wise old man asked. "She cometh to conlet yestaday resut with her baby and me no well. so she is coming inside to take it. I dey found the result she con shout, i run out" Oluomo replied with a shaky voice. Did I ask you?? the old man asked. "oniranu". He added. Some Wise ones among the people knew he was lying.

While people were wailing over the dead young boy, Bimbo was inside with Philip sleeping. A loud bang on the door woke the two from their deep sleep. "Put on your cloths he told her in a low tone. Who is that?? he asked "Forget who is that brother Philip. I just want to tell you That Ebenezer Bimbo's brother is dead" The voice at the door replied. Ebenezer??? bimbo screamed as she went to the door to question who said that. She was putting on just singlet. It was Iya tobi that was at the door. Bimbo what are you doing here??? she questioned.
