That encounter changed his life forever, and he began to live an exemplary life of religiosity and moral rectitude. This lifestyle of innocence and abstinence was misinterpreted and rejected by Akudo his dear friend as she wanted nothing less than romantic, sensual, expressive intimacy with him and for which she was willing to do whatever it takes to make him change from his frigidity and consent to her amorous desires. But Akudo later realizes that it is an un-cultural thing for a girl to ask a guy out in Amad-Ama.

But Beatrice Akpan, his girlfriend, is in doubt of Kwame’s involvement in cultism and goes in search of him but when the finally meets him in his house at Abulo-Ama, she gets the beating of her life for a sin she never committed with Macaulay.
