David’s side of the story;
As narrated by David


‘’seriously what is she doing here?’’ Nora asked, turning to face me with great anger, ignoring Cassandra who politely greeted her. I quickly drew close and held her by the waist to calm her down.
‘’actually she came in very late last night and I couldn’t ask her to leave out of fear of what happened the last time she showed up by that exact hour’’ I answered truthfully, praying for her to believe me.

‘’she slept here?. She slept with you?’’ she asked without reservation, her face coloring up deeply. I quickly shook my head.
‘’no she slept in the other free room. You can check it out to confirm for yourself. I wasn’t even aware that she is already in my kitchen’’ I answered like a scared little child. She shrugged, walked back to the sitting and sat down.
I stared at her for some seconds, not knowing what to say or do. I have never found myself in situation before.

‘’Nora dear, you got to believe me. There is nothing going on with Cassandra and I anymore’’ I tried to explain, sitting by her side.
‘’fine, then ask her to leave’’ she said seriously, throwing me aback with her demand.

Yes it really was the right thing to do but the manner by which she gave the command made it look as if I was a little kid or someone being controlled by a woman.

‘’she wants to return to her school but then she’s scared of what Edwin could do to her. Can you just allow me to talk with her first?’’ I said desperately, clueless on how to follow the situation.

‘’just listen to yourself. Are you trying to justify her motive of being here?. If that’s the case then I think you still want to continue your relationship with her.’’ She said with a raised tone.

Cassandra walked in that moment, smiling innocently as she came closer to us.

‘’Nora I know we have never related well to each other but you just have to calm down please. I have no bad intentions for you or for David’’ She said softly, trying to work her way into Nora’s heart with the gentle words but unfortunately Nora wasn’t buying any of it. She simply ignored all Cassandra said to her, instead faced me with burning eyes.

‘’David you have just five minutes to send her out of here or I will leave this house and you will never see me or your child ever again’’ she suddenly threatened, standing up as if she was about leaving the house. I quickly got up and dragged Cassandra to the room (she slept the previous night).

‘’I’m sorry for doing this but you have to leave. It was your entire fault. I was ready to do anything for you in the past but you insulted and abandoned me. Nora picked me up and revived me. She now owns my life and I will have to do as she wants. This is hard for me but you have to leave. Go back to your house and remain there until Edwin is caught’’ I said seriously. She nodded softly as tears showed up in her eyes.
‘’I don’t know what else to say. I’m very much broken in spirit right now. I just feel so terrible but I will have to leave’’ she breathed. I nodded, drew back and returned to the sitting room where Nora was anxiously waiting.

‘’she’s leaving’’ I said to her quietly, a bit angry over the insensitive behavior she put up towards Cassandra.

‘’that’s fine by me’’ she muttered, glanced at her watch and breathed heavily.

————————-

Cassandra showed up at the sitting room minutes later, ready to leave. She gave me one last look, breathed deeply and left without saying any word. I never knew where she was going nor did I ask.
The dark smile on Nora’s face as Cassandra left unceremoniously kind of made me wonder the true state of her feelings.

There wasn’t any doubt Nora was in love with me. There was any denying she was only trying to protect me but then I felt she went way over the line with the way she reacted towards Cassandra.

‘’I hope this is the end of Cassandra?’’ she asked, leaving me to ask myself the very same question.

‘’is it really the end of Cassandra’s influence in my life??’’
hmmmmmmm

Cassandra Season 2Ep3




Nora’s side of the story;
As narrated by Nora

Seeing a young man who introduced himself as Val that fateful January afternoon, my mind quickly raced towards David. I instantly had the fear that he was in grave danger. And just like I feared, the young man brought some very bad news to me. He told me that David was being detained by the police, which really got me anxious but then what really got me very angry was the annoying request that I should follow him to the station to see David.

Of course I snapped. The request left me totally angry. I couldn’t believe David could have the guts to make such a request as if I was his wife or a part of his life after making it very clear in the past that I was nothing but a bug in his life. Yes he tried to make peace with me quite alright but then he equally made it very clear that he was doing it for the sake of my baby and not for me. I don’t think you need to be a woman to know how painful all his actions has been to me. Nevertheless I still did my part by referring him to my cousin for legal help, thinking he would let me be, instead he sent the young man who introduced himself as Val to come and fetch me the instant he got arrested.

David really deserved all that was happening to him. He equally didn’t deserve any help from me. He needed to feel how it hurts being without a partner in time of need. He badly needed to be taught a lesson that life isn’t all about him.

A part of me wanted him to suffer but then a greater part of me couldn’t just let me back away. My conscience wouldn’t let me be and as soon as Val left, I dropped my little baby in my sister’s care and headed to the police station to see David.

Yes I still was in love with him no matter how hard I tried to deny the feelings. I really couldn’t stay to watch him suffer even though he deserved every bit of a thing happening to him.

In no time, I found myself standing before Val and David at the poli8ce station. I was nervous as ever because I hated the police for no reason. One look at David showed me a man who lost everything. I saw a man who was scared of losing his life. I saw a man who was scared of the future before him. I saw hopelessness in his eyes. I badly felt like holding and caressing him tightly but instead i stood my ground and smiled softly as he quickly got up with a smile of relief, hugging me tightly.

Of course I knew the hug he gave me wasn’t out 0f love but possibly out of gratefulness.
‘’oh Nora, thank you’’ he breathed in my ear.

——————————————————–

David’s point of view;
As narrated by DAVID

As soon as I saw Val return to the police station without Nora, I instantly felt empty. Of course I knew she had no reason to pity my condition or show up, nevertheless I had hoped on her good nature, thinking she would be forced to come with Val out of sympathy; but on seeing Val all alone, I realized that I hoped too much.

I felt like crying that moment. I felt like turning back the hands of time. I felt like correcting all the mistakes I did in the past but then it was already too late to hope on anything. All the remained in me were the prayers in my heart. I prayed for Cassandra to show up from anywhere she was hiding. I definitely was scared of spending even a single night in the police cell.

As Val and I were talking, I just didn’t know what made me bring up my head which really had been down since he showed up without Nora. I couldn’t believe my eyes as they rested on Nora who was standing unannounced before us.
All I could mutter was ‘’oh Nora, thank you’’ as I quickly hugged her with great passion.

———————–
However the joy of holding her in my arms was short-lived as an officer showed up that moment to take me to the cell.

I couldn’t help but wonder if that was the last hug I was ever going to share with Nora.

‘’just be strong’’ Nora whispered in my ear and believe me, her voice never left my head after that moment.

‘’dear Lord don’t let him hang for something he didn’t do. Yes David could be nasty and bad but he isn’t a murderer or a kidnapper’’ I heard Nora softly pray for me as tears slowly dropped from my eyes.

‘’don’t worry David; I will go for Nora right away. Just relax’’ I promised and backed away while he nodded with great hope.

‘’I know it won’t be easy convincing her to come with you but please try your best’’ he begged softly.

—————-
As I made to leave the building I noticed the police inspector staring at me. I had no choice than to stop and have another word with him.

‘’I have to go fetch his lawyer and family. I really never imagined this situation would go this far. But Come on officer, can’t you guys find a way to settle this issue without getting the young man detained?” I asked like a foreigner who just got to the country. The officer smiled softly, shook his head and weighed me with his eyes. It was very obvious that my question surprised him and for a moment I was scared that he could have a change of heart and get me detained as well.

‘’listen young man; this is a case of a missing girl. We take such issues seriously. In fact we treat such case the same way we treat a case of kidnap. Just pray the girl returns because her father is very willing to take the case anywhere with the evidence he has. We the police have no choice than to allow the law to run its full course. There is nothing I nor even my superiors can do in this situation to turn things around for your friend’’ he answered calmly.

‘’okay please at least don’t lock him up yet till I return with his lawyer or a family member. Of course I will settle you for that’’ I begged while he shrugged and accepted.

Visiting Nora was the next thing i did after leaving the police station. I really was very curious to meet her in person, of course who wouldn’t be after listening to her story.

Finding Nora’s house was very easy due to my vast knowledge of the town. I got there within fifteen minutes and with a little bit of nervousness I knocked on her door as I quickly formed the words to use on her.

The door gently opened, revealing a very attractive woman, dressed in a native fitting gown. She was just naturally beautiful with no makeup or any form of sophistication. She was just so natural. I swallowed hard with admiration as I stared at her speechlessly while she stood and waited for me to say a word.
‘’emm; Good day. I’m David’s friend. He sent me’’ I stammered.
‘’okay, I hope he is fine?” she asked suspiciously, searching me with her eyes. I nodded quickly.

‘’he was arrested minutes ago by the police and with the look of things he isn’t getting out of detention soon. He is being detained at the fire service police station and he badly needs your help. He has no one else to turn to but you’’ I said quickly, watching her guardedly. She kept quiet for some seconds before shaking her head.

‘’I really don’t understand what he needs me for. He has my cousin’s phone numbers. I can give them to you to call the man. I don’t see where I can help here.’’ She muttered defensively.

‘’yes he needs you as much as he needs your cousin because you are just like the only family he has in this town. He will need your food and visits, plus his house and shops needs your attention’’ I quickly answered but my words only made her mad with anger. She instantly gave out the longest hiss I have ever heard in my life, while I took a cautious step backwards.

‘’he can rot in jail for all I care. I have already done enough by asking my cousin to help him. You just get away from my house right now before I pounce on you. It’s very obvious you don’t know my relationship with him. Get out’’ she barked and shut the door on my face.

—————————————————–

I staggered back to the car, extremely shocked by Nora’s outburst. I badly needed to hand over David’s welfare to someone. I had my life to live. I had things to do with my time and not running around for a dude I just met. David’s car equally was still with me and I really didn’t know what to do with it.

I finally called the lawyer who unfortunately told me that he wasn’t in town at the moment.

‘’just calm down, I will be at the police station first thing tomorrow’’ he promised and hung up.

—————————–
I returned to the police station to meet David who hopefully stared at me . I forced out a smile before sitting beside him.

‘’I just finished writing my statement. They refused to let me go’’ he complained with a very sad look. I tapped his knee, smiling reassuringly.

‘’so how did it go with Nora and her cousin?”’ he asked curiously.
‘’the lawyer will be here first thing tomorrow’’ I answered.

‘’and Nora?’’ he asked eagerly. I breathed deeply, avoiding his eyes.

‘’she isn’t coming. She doesn’t want to have anything to do with you. I guess it’s time to call your mum because you really need someone around to take care of things on your behalf. You know, I have already done my best for you’’ I said painfully. He nodded and looked down with great pain.

———————————
I really was touched over his condition but there wasn’t much I could do anymore for him. There wasn’t any doubt he was a drowning man and what he needed the most was someone like family to him.

‘’hello David’’ I instantly heard a familiar voice greet. Looking up, I was extremely surprised to see Nora facing us with a smile. I quickly heaved a sigh of relief. But the relief I felt that moment was nothing compared to the happiness in David’s eyes as he looked up at Nora.

‘’oh Nora’’ I heard him breathe with relief.

There wasn’t any doubt about Nora’s wondrous nature.
