EJE (BLOOD)

By Fabian Adeoye Lojede

Lara, an unemployed young lady, responds to an online ad for a babysitter. To her surprise, she gets the job with just a phone interview and no reference checks. She has fuzzy flashbacks of being assaulted in the house before blacking out. Nobody believes her, not even the investigating officers. An old cleaner in the hospital secretly tells her she knows what happened to her. She claimed it’s linked to her ancient RH Negative bloodline. As things become clearer in her memory, the reality of the revelation is earth-shattering. It plunges her into a world where nobody is who they say they are and forces her to believe in the unbelievable. The human race is facing an existential threat.
