Nnenna was helpless and just accepted everything. The only problem now was that she couldn't carry it all by herself. So, she called a cargo driver and packed everything into the back of the vehicle. After saying a final goodbye to the old man and his children, she left.
Once she turned a corner and was far away from familiar eyes, she asked the cargo driver to help her offload all the items in an empty, quiet space.

Once Nnenna was sure no one else was around, she called out, "Guys, I need some help."
