    The final path

    Raquelia’s POV

    I yawned as I woke up, I looked around and got alerted, where am I? I looked beside me and saw Arthur sleeping with a lot of drips connected to different parts of his body. I smiled sadly and scoohed closer to him, his face was up and a breathing mask on his nose and mouth. Soft sobs escaped my mouth

    ‘You’ll be okay my love’ I assured him and held his hand, I closed my eyes and tried to connect with his spirit but it was really impossible, somehow I feel like Gwen is intentionally punishing me for my mistake. The door opened and Arthur’s mom and Jena walked in with the doctor, they looked bored of something, I smiled
    Jinora

    ‘So I thought I should just say hi to him nothing suspicious just a friendly hi to my ex but Nate got all jealous and blabbed about me wanting to leave him and run back to my ex is he crazy? Why will I do that? He’s just really annoying and obviously in his period right Mrs Arthur?’ She breathe out
    ‘Mm hm’

    ‘Yea in his period, whatever’ Jena sighed

    ‘Doctor what about you?’

    ‘He’s just scared Miss but please be quiet now so you won’t wake them up and murder Arthur with your talk’ the doctor said coldly, she gasped

    ‘Hey you Mr White Coat, my voice can’t kill anyone’ she flared
    ‘You sure about that?’ A smaller voice asked sarcastically, who’s that?

    ‘Of course I am’ Jinny snorted. ‘Anyways, doctor how did the test go? I’m not pregnant right? Because if I should be Jayden will render Nate impotent then fry me before my parents eat me’
    ‘You’re not pregnant Miss, please be quiet’ the doctor snapped
    ‘I’m just t….’

    ‘One more word from you Jinora and I will rip out your vocal chord’ Jena snapped, she kept quiet. The doctor walked to Arthur and checked him, I kept my eyes shut
    ‘It’s still fascinating how his nerves and readings calmed downed the moment we put Miss Raquelia beside him, Jena how did you know it would work?’ He asked completely fascinated
    ‘If you have seen their love in action, you would understand’ she said nonchalantly

    ‘What about my sister in-law? Why is she not waking up? It’s been four days already, is she pregnant?’ The small voice asked, Ashley
    Wait four days!

    ‘Ashley!’

    ‘Mom, I’m only making sense here’ Ashley said laughingly. ‘Who knows what Arthur do to her behind close doors and how she screams’ she continued laughingly and Arthur’s mom smacked her while Jinny and Jena laughed, I frowned, if I had done that before he wouldn’t be on this stupid but soft bed, are we still in a hospital?
    I opened my eyes slowly like I was just waking up, they gasped
    ‘She’s awake!’

     An_hour_later

    Jena explained to me how I slept off and didn’t wake up, she also said that after the operation, Arthur’s heart kept rising and falling so she suggested or rather insisted I be laid beside him in his fancy hospital room that looks like a bedroom

    ‘Ashley please leave my hair alone’ I pleaded, she kept touching my hair

    ‘But it’s so soft and smooth and smell so nice’ she said acknowledgedly as she stuffed her face into my hair. ‘I can eat it’
    ‘And it can electrify you’ Jena said jokingly but she was serious
    ‘I’ll take my chances’ she smiled
    ‘Ashley let go of her hair’ Anika, Arthur’s mom said seriously, Ashley sighed and let go of my hair

    ‘Call me’ she whispered to my hair, I laughed. A man walked in and I could easily tell it was Arthur’s dad, the striking resemblance was there, only that he had his mom’s complexion and eyes

    ‘Honey’ Anika said excitedly, he stopped on his track and stared at her suspiciously. ‘What?’

    ‘You called me honey, what do you want this time?’

    ‘So because I called you a sweet name I want something?’ She asked frowningly, he scoffed
    ‘You have three seconds to say it or forget about it’ he said seriously
    ‘Okay I need to go see Becca, she just gave birth and you know this is her first baby so as her sister I need to be there for her’ she said sheepishly

    ‘I knew it, you can go but I have to return to China too, what do we do about Arthur?’

    ‘I’m right here you know’ Kyle who have been quietly staring at Jena and Jinora said waving his hand

    ‘And me too’ his identical twin smiled too, he was seriously staring at Jinora, I chuckled
    ‘You can go, we’ll be here for him’ I assured them

    ‘I won’t’ Ashley muttered
    ‘What did you say?’ His dad asked warningly

    ‘I mean yay! I’ll be here too’ she said with fake enthusiasm, he smiled. The next few hours was spent with me laughing, gosh! Arthur’s family are so funny, his parents argue like every thirty minutes and Ashley spice things up, sometimes they would say
    ‘Arthur back me up here’ then hiss and mutter. ‘My back up is flexing his bed’

    As for Kyle, he wasn’t still used to seeing two Jena, he kept demanding that Jena dye her hair
    ‘How can your eyes and hair and everything be the same, my heart is the only means of identification I have, dye your hair’ he would say

    ‘I love my hair like this, leave me alone’ she would snap back
    ‘I wish to cut mine but Jayden will kill me’ Jinny would add, it was funny, Jena and Jinny got along with Lyle easily, especially Jin who Lyle is obviously crushing on
    I’m wondering how they can tell who is who

    Jin might be very loquacious but just like Jena, her unintentional charms on guys are still active, very active. I smiled to myself because she would certainly end up with Lyle, from day one I never liked Nate and I knew the relationship won’t last but Jin won’t hear it, in exactly six days from now, he would break up with her but by then she won’t care because Lyle’s name will be boldly sealed in her heart

    Two_weeks_later


     Jena’s POV

    I typed on my phone as I laid on Kyle’s bed, he was in the bathroom still washing his hands, don’t even know what he touched. I dropped my phone and sighed, Quelly was still glued to the hospital, she never leaves Arthur’s side, she cries a lot sometimes, as for Penny, after she tried to kill me twice and Quelly saved me, she disappeared, everyone thinks she’s missing but she only ran away from Quelly’s wrath
    ‘Hey’ Kyle called softly, I hummed. ‘Who are you chatting with?’ He picked up my phone and checked my chat, God! He has serious jealous issues ‘who’s Dathan?’ He asked jealously, I sighed
    ‘Some dude who wants to date me’
    ‘Did you tell him you have a boyfriend named Kyle McGee?’
    ‘Please read the chat and let it answer your question’ I wasn’t in the mood to talk, I don’t like how he suspect me every time, Quelly said it’s because he’s scared he’ll lose me, I am very beautiful and extremely attractive so anyone can try and snatch me but I’ve told him times without number that I’ve loved him for four years and it won’t stop now

    ‘Who’s Kyle Darlington? So you have another Kyle in your life, one that will replace me’ he asked tearily, not again, I never knew that Kyle was a softie pretending to be hard, he gets hurt easily by any mean words I say, it began just after we started dating, cute but still

    ‘Kyle please not again, why can’t you just trust me, I love you and no one can change that, you’re too legit to quit… See!’ I showed him our chat. ‘He’s just your fan and hopes to see you one day, that’s all’
    ‘Are you sure?’

    ‘I swear on….on….on…erm Jayden’s life that I won’t ever cheat on you’ I said kneeing up on the bed, he chuckled

    ‘So if you do I should kill Jayden?’ He said laughingly, I nodded, he smiled. ‘I’m sorry I keep acting like this, I trust you but I’m just scared, my first love got snatched from me so I just….’. So that’s why!
    ‘Well I’m not her, guys don’t snatch me, I snatch them’ I said seriously, he cackled

    ‘You indeed do’ he smiled and pulled me down to the bed, he hovered over me, I rolled my eyes. ‘Do you know I love you very much’ he asked huskily with darken eyes

    ‘Yea you do but that won’t give you access to me yet so hands off’ I said smirkingly, he pouted
    ‘Jena I think it’s high time I weaken one part of your over confident’ he said with a lopsided smirk

    ‘You know you can’t’ I said proudly, he chuckled
    ‘If there’s one thing I’m a professional at, it’s getting a woman laid when I choose to and as long as you are on my bed, you’re not going anywhere today until I have you begging me to fuck you’

    ‘Ha!’ I laughed nervously, simulating bold confidence in myself in front of him is hard enough but if he tries anything, I would fall within a second, only his kiss is enough to wipe my brain

    ‘I’ve told you to stop fighting it, you’re delaying yourself’ Quelly said calmly

    ‘Quelly what are you doing in my head? Get out this instance’
    ‘Oh sorry, I was bored and decided to check on you and I like his dare because he’s about to find out how weak he can make you, I should tell him your weak point is the left side of your neck just below your ear… Oh he knows’ she laughed and stopped talking, I felt Kyle’s lip on my weak spot and my body got paralyzed
    Darn it!

    Arthur’s POV

    I opened my eyes slowly and winced at the pain of the light, I felt something squeeze my hand tightly, I could hear a voice squealing. I turned and saw a white haired girl, she’s beautiful but who is she?

    ‘Arthur can you hear me?’ She asked excitedly, even her voice was enchanting, I stared at her admirably. ‘Arthur?’ She removed the mask from my face and some other trash

    ‘I’m fine’ my voice came out weakly, she giggled and hugged me, I held her weakly

    ‘You got me scared you know’ she smiled. ‘My love I missed you’ love? What love? Is she my girlfriend? When did I have a Bae? I’m in love with that girl from the park so who’s this?

    Wait! The eyes, the hair, the lips, it’s her! I moaned in pain when my brain vibrated

    ‘Are you okay? My love’ she panicked

    ‘Raquelia’ I whispered as her name popped up, I remember everything now, my Creamy. ‘My love’ I called back, she sighed with relief and touched my head, I don’t know what she did but I suddenly felt stronger, like I was never sick. ‘Penelope!’ I gasped out
    ‘I’ll deal with her once you’re hundred percent okay’ she said angrily but not to me, that last told me that she’s not what I think but I should be patient and let her tell me who she really is

    Patient my foot!

    ‘Raquelia please tell me, who really are you?’ I asked with a much stronger voice

    ‘Gwen’ she muttered and cursed under her breath. ‘I’ll tell you later’

    ‘Tell me now or consider us over’ I said sternly, she gasped

    ‘Arthur please don’t break up with me’ she pleaded with glassy eyes
    ‘Then Miss Raquelia Catania McGrath, if that’s your real name, tell me who or what you are because in case it didn’t register to you, I almost got killed because of you’ I said stridently, tears ran down her cheeks as she burst into tears, okay too harsh. ‘Okay I’m sorry, please don’t cry, I’m sorry’ I apologized and sat up

    ‘I haven’t even told you and you already want to dump me’ she sobbed, what have I done?
    ‘I won’t, I promise’ I assured her
    ‘Take your bath and eat first, then I’ll tell you when you get home, not here AND YOU CAN’T BREAK UP WITH ME, I WONT LEAVE YOU, EVER!’ she shouted, I smiled
    ‘I know, we are stuck together’ I smiled and wiped her tears, my mind raced with thoughts

    What or who really is my girlfriend?

    TARASHA
    Tarasha – Chapter Five(part1)

    © Oyin Oluwatosin Emmanuel






    Tarasha picked up a white napkin to wipe off part of the liquid which poured on her lab coat. She had been in the lab all night, spending hours to set up the lab which she couldn’t 

    complete as she was only able to set up the equipments she needed urgently. The rest of the time was used in manufacturing some of the important tools for her job.
    She got up from the seat, holding a syringe in the right hand, she drew in part of the warm mixture from the test tube and injected into a small needlelike metal with a opening only wide enough for the syringe to go through.
    She repeated the process several times; each draw by syringe filled ten of the metals. After filling about two hundred, she arranged the metals neatly into two rubber packs which could easily fit into her back pocket. It took her about two hours to complete the process of filling the pins.
    Benryl was the name of the mixture she prepared, a drug in the Benzodiazepines class. The manufacture of Benryl began two years back, a result of a research and experiment carried out by her Assassin group in Russia. The drug was made to induce sleep and erase the victim’s immediate past memories of two hours.
    She placed the rubber pack on a shelve which she had kept the previously prepared substances.
    Her wristwatch beeped, she looked at the screen as it streamed live the recording from the camera she installed in the compound of the house Chief Gab prepared for her. The time was 7am and some of Chief’s men were in the compound, obviously sent by Chief to check on her since she hadn’t spoken to him since the last night and she was expected to move in that morning.
    She took off the lab gloves and the lab mask she wore to avoid inhaling the dangerous gaseous substance and walked out to the sitting room. She picked up her phone as she sat on the sofa and  dialed Chief Gab’s phone number.
    ‘Hello Tarasha, I was about to call you. Where are you?’ the call was answered with no delay.
    ‘Yes Chief, I knew you would call me’ Tarasha replied with a smirk on her face. ‘Why did you send men to the house this morning’
    ‘I couldn’t reach you all through last night to inform you about the house but… ‘
    ‘I was there last night, I already picked up everything I needed from the house. Thank you for providing the laboratory equipment I requested for’
    ‘Are you the one that tied up your men? And where are you?’ Chief asked with a note of frustration in his voice.
    ‘What men are you talking about? I didn’t see any of them except the lady cook which I took along with me’ She replied back
    ‘The guys I provided to work with you were found there this morning tied back to back on two chairs with their eyes blindfolded’ Chief explained. ‘They said a lady tired them up’
    ‘Chief’ Tarasha spoke after giving a long wicked laugh. ‘I don’t believe you brought those guys to work with me, I took both of them down in just two minutes’
    ‘What? Those guys are one of the best around town, they’re members of the most notorious gang in the country’
    ‘Best? You must kidding me and they couldn’t even lay a finger on me while I handled them’
    ‘See Tarasha, they are not as trained as you, It took us a lot to bring them for you and they’re very good if you would only learn how to use them’
    ‘No problem Chief, but I don’t want those ones anymore. Bring two other better guys there today, I’ll work with them without testing them’ she concluded and made an attempt to end the call.
    ‘So when are you coming to the house?’ Chief asked.
    Tarasha paused for a while for she replied, ‘I can’t stay in that house Chief, it’s not safe for me. I can only use it as an office for meeting with you or doing some other things’
    ‘But what about everything I arranged there?’
    ‘I took all I needed already, just leave the house as it is, I’ll make use of it whenever it’s needed. Let the two new guys wait there for me this afternoon; any other uninvited person I find there would lose his life’ She answered back, issuing a serious warning.
    ‘Am I free to be there?’ Chief questioned
    ‘Only stay there if you’re one of the two men that’ll be working with me’ she ended the conversation without giving him a chance to reply.

    **11.15am

    Tarasha admired the beauty of the reception walls as she sat with another visitor on the sofa, waiting patiently for Dr Hammed. She adjusted the red tie which covered the ID hung around her neck and straightened up her shirt properly.
    Dr Hammed came walking by few minutes later, he walked alongside with two other men. They stopped close to the entrance door and concluded their discussion and the men made their way out of the building. Dr Hammed turned and began to walk back when he heard his name. He turned back to see Tarasha walking towards him.
    ‘Hey …’ He greeted as he saw, he narrowed his gaze trying to recall her name.
    ‘Samantha Osman sir’ Tarasha quickly helped him.

    You can also read: THE INCARNATE
    ‘Oh! Samantha, I didn’t know that you were here already’
    ‘I am sir’ she replied pleasantly. ‘I’ve been here about forty minutes ago’
    ‘I see, sorry I kept you waiting’ He apologized.
    ‘No problem sir’ she replied, bending her knee slightly as a sign of respect.
    ‘Okay, come with me’ he said and led her through a wide corridor.
    They walked past several labs before they got to his office which was located close to end of the block. He opened the door and allowed her in before he followed.
    ‘Welcome to my office’ he said, directing her to the visitor’s seat as he walked past the table to his seat.
    ‘Thank you sir’ she answered, looking around the office like someone who was admiring the look. She turned to the man and concentrated her gaze on him.
    ‘Okay, let me see what you have for me’ Dr Hammed said without looking up at her, as he tapped some keys on his computer keyboard.
    ‘Here sir’ Tarasha brought out a hard cover notebook and placed it on the table.
    ‘Just a minute’ he said, taking a glance at the notebook, he returned his focus to his computer.
    ‘Okay sir’
    ‘I’m just trying to settle the welfare issues for our guests at the conference’ he explained, smiling at her. ‘The two  non African speakers would stay at the governor’s house, so I have to make plans for our African invitees’
    ‘Oh good’ Tarasha smiled back. ‘What about our minister here? I heard he’s part of the speakers’
    ‘Yes, he is. He’ll be staying in his Lagos house when he comes over’ he answered her question and picked up the book as he waited for the computer to process a command. ‘So what do we have here?’
    ‘It’s a research on cancer and how it can be permanently cured ‘ Tarasha explained.
    He dropped the book just after opening the cover page only and went back to his computer. He held the mouse and clicked another set of instructions before he picked the book again.
    ‘Permanent cancer cure?’ He commented as he opened the cover page again.
    ‘Yes sir, through our local herbs’ she watched as he dropped the book once again and returned to his job on the system.
    ‘I’m sorry, I just have to resolve somethings’ the Doctor pleaded with Tarasha who just smiled at him.
    ‘Is it all about the conference?’
    ‘Yes, I wouldn’t have had time to…’ He couldn’t complete his statement, a Benryl pin was already used to inject the liquid into the hand placed on the mouse. His head fell back with his body into his seat as he slept off.
    Tarasha got up quickly for his seat, she brought out a mobile device from her bag and used to confirm if there was any camera hidden from her view in the office. The test indicated negative, there no camera in the room and also no hole through which the happenings in the office can be viewed.
    She moved the man’s seat away from the computer and began to work on it, copying some of the files to her flash drive. After about fifteen minute of searching through the rest of the computer files, she was satisfied with the information gotten. She dragged the man closer to the table and placed his head on his hand beside the computer’s desktop.

    She got out of the building casually, making sure that she didn’t raise suspicion from any one. She got a cab outside the gate and headed for her office; the house Chief prepared for her.

    ‘Good morning Chief’ Tarasha greeted on phone.
    ‘Good morning Tarasha’ a harsh voice responded.
    ‘Chief, have you gotten the stuff you asked me to get? I dropped it in the car parked in front of your office according to our plan’
    ‘Yes, I’ve seen it’ the voice answered
    ‘You’ve seen it? But why haven’t you called me then? You didn’t keep your part of the deal’
    ‘What deal?’
    ‘What do you mean Chief? Didn’t you say that I would get the bank alert for my balance two hours after you get the carton?’
    ‘Yes I said that, but you broke the agreement first’
    ‘What? How?’
    ‘You said you would do the job without killing anybody’
    ‘Yes, I didn’t drop anyone’
    ‘But it was all over the news yesterday, all the labourers at the warehouse were found dead yesterday’
    ‘That wasn’t me, that happened in the afternoon. I carried out the job around 3am’
    ‘How am I supposed to believe that you really did the job by 3am?’
    ‘What the hell are you talking about Chief?’ Tarasha flared up. ‘I see you don’t want to keep to your part of the deal?’
    ‘I will send you the balance once I’m sure that it wasn’t you that carried out the killings’ the call ended.
    Tarasha was fuming with anger as she dropped the phone, it wasn’t as if the balance meant so much to her but she was angry at the obvious fact that the Chief only wanted to cheat her and she wouldn’t take that from anyone. She checked her wall clock and pondered for a while before shr picked up a pistol and a mask from her bedside and stormed out of the house.
    She tapped a button on the remote control and the door to the driver’s seat of her Zently 2027 model opened. She slid into the car and the door closed back automatically, she inserted two bullets into the revolver and hid it safely under the car seat  after which she started the car engine and  drove towards the gate which opened automatically and closed after she was out of the compound.
    She drove as fast as possible, hissing every time she had to stop because of traffic signals and other road users. After almost an hour drive, she got to Gravl Avenue, she parked at a very far distance to the Chief’s house.
    She gave a wicked smile as she glanced at her wristwatch. In few minutes, the driver and the bodyguard that accompanied the Chief youngest daughter to school would be returning. She took the revolver from where she hid it and kept it in her purse, reason that she wasn’t properly dressed; the clothes she wore would show signs of the gun if pocketed.
    She got out of the car , carefully making sure no passerby was watching or noticing her and she walked a distance closer to the Chief’s house.
    With her dark goggles on, she stayed by the side of the road and placed one hand on her waist, acting like one who was waiting for a cab. After two minutes, she sighted the driver and bodyguard from afar, returning in the car.
    As they came closer, she started to walk through the road pretending not to see the coming car. She got the driver confused as he struggled to bring the car to a halt but not after he had gotten so close, almost hitting her.

    ‘What’s wrong with you ma’am? Didn’t you see a car was coming?’ The driver shouted angrily at her.
    ‘I’m sorry’ she pleaded, holding her chest like someone who was deeply horrified. She turned to the driver’s side to apologize.
    ‘You should be careful next time’ the driver continued, more calmly now.
    ‘I’m sorry’ she said, gasping for breath and coughing as sweat drop from her face in the hot sun. ‘I think I’ve lost my way, I was going to Eden hair salon at Gravl Avenue’
    ‘You’re at Gravl avenue already, just walk a little bit further and you’ll find it by your left side’
    ‘Please can you give me a lift there?’ She pleaded.
    ‘Okay yes’ the driver replied, looking at the bodyguard by his side who shrugged in confirmation. ‘Enter the back seat’
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    Inspector James sat on a chair facing a man on the hospital bed, the only survivor of the warehouse attack. The man was conscious and was talking already, narrating all he knew about the attack.
    ‘So you don’t know any of those who attacked you people?’ James interrogated
    ‘Yes, I’ve never seen any of them before’ the injured man replied, he had a bandage tied round his forehead and one round his belly.
    ‘And they were not thieves?’
    ‘Yes, they were not thieves. I believe they were looking for something, they said a carton was missing among the goods they collected last night’
    ‘Last night? Which goods?’
    ‘I overheard them saying something about 3am’
    ‘3am? Do you people work overnight?’
    ‘Sometimes, we fill up some cartons and arrange them overnight but I’m not aware that something like that was supposed to happen last night’
    ‘Who was supposed to be on duty last night’
    ‘Ermm… No one, except the security men’
    ‘But the security men have been killed already, who else was on duty?’
    ‘No the two security men that was killed yesterday were not the ones on shift that night’
    ‘Oh! I see, do you know how we can reach them?’
    ‘No, I have no relationship with them, we only greet when resuming and vacating the office’
    ‘I think its enough already’ the Doctor interrupted as he walked in. ‘He needs rest’
    ‘It’s okay’ James replied the Doctor and stood up, he turned back to the injured man.
    ‘We’re really sorry for what has happened and we promise to get to the root of this as soon as possible. Thank you for your cooperation, we’ll contact you as soon as we need your help again, I wish you a quick recovery’ he said and walked out of the ward with the other officer.
    ‘But what do you think that hoodlums would want in a beverage warehouse?’ James asked his colleague as they proceeded out of the hospital to their car.
    ‘I don’t know, I think the best people to give us the answer would be the security men on duty that night’ he answered.
    ‘Okay, what you would do now is to go back to the warehouse and check their logs, we need to get those men’ James instructed. ‘I believe they know about the incident’
    ‘Ok, I’ll just go straightaway sir’
    ‘Good, we also have to be on the lookout for the manager Mr. Felix, there are still no signs of him everywhere’

    **11am

    ‘Tarasha! ‘ Chief Gab called out immediately the call was answered.
    ‘Hello Chief’ she replied in a cheerful voice.
    ‘Tarasha! How come you went that far on a little issue?’
    ‘Was that Chief?’ She asked mockingly. ‘Or have you seen my gift?’
    ‘Tarasha, you shouldn’t have gone that far. I was going to send the money to you’
    ‘Alright’ she answered more seriously now. ‘I should get the alert in the next fifteen minutes else your daughter would be in danger too’
    ‘No o, Tarasha. Don’t try that at all, that would be big trouble for you’ the Chief tried to sound brave.
    ‘You’re the one who shouldn’t try me Chief, send the money within fifteen minutes after this call ends’
    ‘Okay, I will see what I can do’
    ‘Huh?’
    ‘I said I’ll see what I can do’
    ‘Don’t play pranks Chief, if you think you can move your child out of the school and stop me from reaching her, then you better think twice because I can already see that your men are outside the school gate and there’s no way they’ll escape me’
    ‘What!’ The Chief was in shock. ‘How did you know that?’
    ‘Let me get the alert quickly’ She said and ended the conversation.
    The Chief was in panic as he dropped the phone. He wondered how Tarasha knew that he had already sent men to safeguard his daughter. He wasted no time as he picked up his tablet device and transferred the remaining balance of ten million naira to Tarasha’s account and called her immediately to notify her.
    ‘I just sent the money’
    ‘Good, I received the message alert already’ she replied him.
    ‘So is my daughter free now?’
    ‘Of course, I have nothing to use her for’ she said with a chuckle.
    ‘Okay, we need to see. I have some other jobs for you and I need to explain to you personally’
    ‘We’ll see on Skype’
    ‘Huh? I need to meet with you, I need to see who I’m working with’
    ‘I don’t think there’s any need for that, we see on Skype already, isn’t it?’
    ‘But you’re always wearing a mask to hide your face’
    ‘No, that’s my face you see; that’s Tarasha’s face’ she added.
    ‘What do you mean?’ Chief Gab questioned.
    ‘The face behind that mask doesn’t have any business to do with you’ she said with a strict voice.
    ‘I …’
    ‘If you don’t mind Chief, I’ve got some other things to do’ she interrupted him and ended the call.
    ‘Damn’ he cursed as he put down the phone. He held his jaw with his hand, remembering how he had been told to deal with her carefully.
    He was calm after reminding himself that he couldn’t get angry with Tarasha now, he still needed her in the work he had to do; his revenge mission.
    He recalled his younger days as the minister of marketing and sales before he was sentenced to ten years imprisonment for drug trafficking and management of the country’s funds after being probed and found guilty by the new government at that period. He was angry and determined to punish all the government officials  that  aided his arrest and conviction especially those who were also involved in some of the illegal businesses he did.
    With the little he had seen Tarasha exhibit and the way Vladislav had spoken about her, he concluded that Tarasha would be of great importance to him in his revenge mission which was even the sole reason he had paid Vladislav several billions to send her down to Nigeria.
    ‘Hey’ he called out to one of his guards who stood at the doorside in the sitting room. ‘Tell Edet to come here immediately’
    The guard went out and returned with a very tall dark man with a slender body. The man bowed in courtesy to the Chief.
    ‘You called for me sir’
    ‘Yes, I did’ Chief begun, ‘two of our guys were killed this morning and I was told you were the one who saw it happening live from the surveillance cameras’
    ‘Yes sir, I alerted them downstairs immediately’
    ‘Yes, but I was told that the person left before they got to the gate’
    ‘Yes, it was a Lady…’
    ‘Shhhh… Don’t worry’ the Chief shut him up, standing up from his seating position. ‘Let’s go, I want to see the video footage myself’
    ‘Okay sir’ Edet replied as he led the Chief to the security room.
    Chief Gab spotted himself on a laptop screen as he entered into the room, that laptop was the one connected to the camera in the room. He looked around the room to check if any change had been made to the room since the last two months he visited. The only change he noticed was that the room was darker than before as no bulb was turned on and would have been completely dark if not for the reflections of light from the several desktop screens in the room.
    [You can also read NOTHING LIKE LOVE (Romance)]
    He sat down and rested properly into the chair he was motioned to and faced the desktop as Edet tried to open some files.
    ‘Here’s it sir’ Edet explained as a video played. ‘She wasn’t wearing mask when she drove to the gate, but she wore the mask before she came out of the car; that was when I suspected something’
    ‘Take it back to where she was in the car’ Chief Gab said as he watched with great interest.
    ‘Here’ Edet rewinded a little, then zoomed the video. ‘Only her jaw is visible, the rest of her face wasn’t captured by the camera; from this we know her skin colour’
    ‘Okay, play on’
    ‘She wore a mask and came out of the car, I don’t know how she knew where our camera was placed’ Edet explained as the video showed Tarasha with her mask on, facing the camera. She pointed to the part of the mask which covered her forehead, showing them the name ‘Tarasha’ which was inscribed on it.
    ‘So we can’t get any useful information from this?’ The Chief asked angrily.
    ‘We know her complexion’ Edet answered.
    ‘Are you crazy? Do you know how many people in this city alone has the same complexion?’ The Chief slammed.
    ‘I’m sorry sir’

    ‘Sorry for yourself’ Chief Gab hissed and left the room.

    Isadora-Episode 34








    Isadora’s side of the story continues

    Living with my new family really ushered in a new chapter of my life. Everyone in the house all appeared and behaved cool towards me, including Jane who tried her best to keep her distance as much as she could.

    To be candid I wasn’t very much comfortable in the house but because of my plans had to try my best to cope with my new life and situation. My uncle on his own part tried to make me feel at home by making sure I had everything that would make me comfortable in his house but anytime I tried talking about my late parents and inheritance he always had this way of brushing my questions aside. It just seemed as if he only wanted to keep me in his house without any motive of telling me about my parents or giving me what belonged to me. Nevertheless I still played the fool and observed his moves without giving him cause to suspect that I wasn’t very happy with how he was acting towards my interest. Moreover my lawyer advised I give him little time and observe.

    Val on his own part tried his best to reach out to me but I never gave him the opportunity. It just wasn’t time for love in my heart. I wasn’t ready to give in to his advances and romance. I had other bigger problems that were occupying my mind but he never really understood my position. He just felt I was being too difficult.

    However one thing I was happy about was that his scheduled court wedding with Jane never held. The day came and went unceremoniously. I bet it was the worst day of Jane’s life.

    The only true cousin or should I say companion I had that period was Chuka and yes he seemed like the wrong person to have as a companion but then he was very open and free with me unlike his siblings. The only bad thing about him was his bad habits which I tried my best to get him out of. Yes it wasn’t easy trying to get a chain smoker to quit but I had this zeal to change him into a better person and luckily he reluctantly was willing to change.

    ‘’see Isadora it’s not as if I don’t know that smoking is bad and all that but I can’t really help myself. I have done lots of terrible things due to my bad childhood and smoking is the only way to calm my emotions down and get rid of bad memories. I have done terrible things and I belong to a very dangerous group’’ he had confided in me one fateful evening when I tried talking more sense into him.

    ‘’sometimes we can’t help the bad choices we made in the past but two wrongs can never make a right. You can atone for your sins by following a good path’’ I had advised him.

    ‘’I can’t really get my life back. I can try to quit smoking but I can’t clear the bad things I did in the past from my conscience neither can I leave my group. I belong to a very deadly group and I can’t change my life. There is no way out for me’’ he poured out, getting me to see his own view.

    It really was a very tedious task trying to change him but since I had nothing to do in the house, I spent most of my time with him and slowly my influence started getting on him. The change was soon noticeable and he barely left the house unlike in the past.
    But I never expected what was to come with the change.

    One late afternoon Three weeks later, he rushed into my room heavily bleeding all over. His entire body, shirt and trouser were soaked in his blood. I had never seen so much blood in my entire life and gosh I felt a great chill ran through me as he fell on me.

    ‘’what’s wrong?, what happened?’’ I asked breathlessly.

    ‘’I tried to quit. I tried to back out but I wasn’t allowed. It only got me this. I pray God forgives my sins’’ he stammered as he gasped for breathe. I really didn’t know what to do nor tell what he tried to back out from. I couldn’t equally figure out where he was attacked, if it was in the house or outside. I was so confused on what to do to help him and before I could get my phone to call his mum, he stopped breathing, leaving me totally terrified. We were the only ones in the house apart from the gateman at the gate.

    What do I do now?’’ I wondered as I tried to revive the lifeless body of the only true brother I had in the house. Deep down I had this feeling I was in a way responsible for his misfortune.


    What do I do now?

    Nothing like love-Episode 19




    Mitchell threw her clutch to her bed,her heels and phone went the same way.Vanessa who had been engrossed making up became alarm.Chel only behaved and that way whenever she was angry.


    What’s with you girlfriend?


    I don’t know how I feel,maybe terrible.


    What happened “V” asked concerned


    Why do you care? so you can go and s£duce Richard into sleeping with you.


    Chell that wasn’t what I meant,am only been concerned about you.


    Concerned’ Is that a what you call it? wow interesting. I guess that was how concerned you were when you slept with Godfrey.


    Chell’


    what? or am I lieng?it’s true na,you had him to your fill.


    Vanessa stood up with unshed tears in her eyes to open the door. Standing before her was the guy that had slept with her weeks ago without even an apology. He never called or texted.


    “Godfrey”


    Hi V’ is mitch in?


    Yeah come in.


    She left the house almost immediately knowing fully well she wasn’t needed and to avoid Mitch ranting.


    Godfrey went on his knees the moment he stepped in.


    Mitch am sorry,it was just a moment weakeness.she doesn’t mean anything to me,you are the one that matter.I can’t live without you,believe me the last few months of my life have been completely meaningless. I want you back please Mitch.


    Why did you have to hurt me,you knew how much I loved you and you happily used my weaknesses against me,dumped me for some months like some trash and come back to pick me whenever you want.


    Mitch I hurt you but you aren’t trash,you are the best thing that had ever happened to me.Baby please come back to me I beg of you.


    just live please.


    Godfrey stood up and went over to where Chell sat on the bed.Within a twinkle of eye they were eating up each other’s lip.


    Have missed you so much, Godfrey breathed out in between the kiss.


    Have missed you more.Soon they were both unclad but it seemed they couldn’t just get enough of each other.


    Vanessa felt useless,all she wanted was to get drunk and forget the pain she was going through.


    How could he do this to her,not even an apology.He acted like nothing happened. She had wished and even fantasized him asking her out.A thought of those imaginations brought tears streaming down her eyes.Who was she to fall inlove? a fat plump lady with designers pimples all over her face.



    Why were things this bad for her? Chel had all it takes.The beauty and the wealth.And most expecially a guy madly inlove with her.Even if she had absentminded parents,she rather lived Chel’s life than hers’.
