Eki walked back to the apartment, her heart feeling very heavy because of what Chief Olumide said. His unexpected kindness and decision to give up the Lease left Eki confused about how she should feel. One part of her felt happiness, finally seeing the cultural centre she always dreamed of becoming a reality. But when she thought more about working with Olumides again, another part of her started to feel uncertain. She thought about how she could keep following her art dreams without breaking this serious agreement they made—a deal that kept the spirit of Lagos alive for so long.
When Eki got to her apartment, she saw Dapo at the door looking very worried. "Eki," he said in a hurry, "Kunle has told me everything." The real collector, the entity… It is frightening."
