“Oh it isn't, I know who planned that accident. Who ruined my life and took Dared away from us.” Aramide informed her.
“Wait what? Who was it?” Tania asked as she stared at Aramide intently.
“Are you sure you want to find out?” Aramide asked as she stood up. “ Cause this is gonna hurt. A lot.”
“Who was it? Speak up already Aramide!” Tania yelled.
“Bola Hampson Dante.”

“Why are you hellbent on blaming Bola for everything?" Tania spat.
“Bola was the one who planned everything. She is the mastermind behind this whole madness.” Aramide explained as she sat down.
“Bola might not be the kindest or sweetest person in the world but she isn't a traitor.” Tania defended
Aramide chuckled. “I'm

~“I don't understand you Aramide"“Your goal shouldn't be to understand me. You need to focus on remembering everywhere that woman may be. While I— I will make a plan so big, Bola's conspiracies will be shrunk” Aramide announcedThis time. The player was going to get played. Now that Aramide had Tania on her side, a lot of things would be done easier.~Aramide groaned as she walked out of the warehouse. The sun was up in the skies and she could not wait to get some rest— it was no secret though that she was as far from rest as the sun was from her. She ran her hands through her head and walked to her car, the door had been held open for her.Aramide was in the car and struggled to control her thoughts. Her mind kept wandering back to Tania.FLASHBACK“Because I had no choice, I wasn
ARAMIDE 172
Daniel ran his hands over his face as he placed about the room. He tried his absolute best to focus on anything but Mercedes' cries. of course, he failed miserably. He could still remember how she wrapped her hands around herself and cried. She sobbed. Letting her emotions rack through her skin like she sobs that escaped her bruised lips. She had been bitting them for a while now. Mercedes had dried tear tracks on her face that were renewed by the ones that we're currently rolling down her cheeks. It had been five hours. Five hours since he was dragged out of there because of her panic attack. Daniel paused and walked down the halls towards the exit. His fists were folded by his sides. His fingers dug into his nails. He kept his face blank. Void of Al the emotions that were threatening to break the walls he had sworn would protect him until now. He couldn't breathe. He couldn't breathe at all. But he had to be strong right? He was

“I haven't been in the hospital for hours, but Daniel's with her, I could call him and ask—" She began but the moment she saw Efrain she said “Or Efrain could call him and ask. They are great buddies may I add” She said as she headed into the house leaving the two men behind. she would talk to Efrain later then. What she needed to do is get some fresh air and breathe. The past few days had been a hurricane. Aramide ran up the stairs into her room. She got some wine from her bar and took it out and poured a little into a glass. She reached out and drank a shot. Her goal wasn't to get drunk, no. She just wanted to get some rest, and over the years, a few shots of vodka or whiskey seemed to do the trick. ************** “I just called Daniel. You know… to ask how stuff is with Mercedes?” Efrain’s voice filled Aramide’s ears. She stood up from where she had been resting, her eye strained at the man as she tried to

~ “But what if we don’t? What if Bola wins? What if I’m not strong enough to stop her? What if right now she’s hurting someone and I can’t do anything to save them? What if I lose?” “Look at me,” Efrain said as he locked eyes with Aramide. “ I will never let you lose.” He said. They stared at each other for a few minutes, their noses touching. “thank you,” Aramide said as she pulled away “but right now, words aren’t enough to save the people I love” ~ Bola smiled as her car finally pulled up to its destination. She was grinning ear to ear. This was going to be fun. definitely. She slowly got down from her car as her other workers pulled up. They were armed to the teeth with guns and bullets. She adjusted her clothes but not her wide grin. This, this was going to teach Aramide a thing or two about messi
ARAMIDE [175] A generous plot.
Bola had to go to extreme measures to protect her family. Her world. She didn't have a child, so she needed to get one and who better to use than the emo sister Mercedes. The one who had nothing to wrote about concerning her life. It wasn't hard to get her drugged. It was pretty easy compared to all the things that Bola had been forced to do over the years, then an artificial insemination process later, Bola was ready to carry the fake baby bump, while a surrogate mother did the rest. After all the effort and strife, did Aramide think, that's she would let her take Cole away from her, of course not! She needed Cole by her side forever, even if she had to pretend to care about Aramide for a while, it was worth it. Bola had done everything. Everything to impress Cole as make him fall in love with her but Cole was obsessed with Aramide! Bola could not wrap her head around what made Aramide so special? Wh
ARAMIDE [176] I'm here to end your pain.
The car finally came to a halt. The men held their tongues with their breaths caught between their crooked teeth, their hands were glued to the trigger on the guns that were within their grip. Each person’s face was even more blank, to them, this was nothing more than they had been informed; a mission, and yes, blood was going to be spilled here and there, but it was what they signed up for right? This was what they wanted and they were good at what they did. Bola finally breathed. Her gaze was steeled as she boreholes into the building in front of her, the drive here had been a rollercoaster of too many emotions she was not open to talking about right now, not even wither self, a small hungry smile spread across her face and rested at the curves of her lips. “Tell them to get ready” she ordered the man behind the wheels from her place at the back seat. The man who seemed to be in his mid-forties merely nodded and gave a thu

“I see you finally decided to come down,” Cole said the moment he saw Aramide walking down the stairs with Efrain trailing behind her. They both looked drained and stress, Aramide looked like she could collapse at any moment, and Efrain? Well, Efrain looked like he was barely hanging on. “It seems like you were waiting, what is it? Did something go wrong?” Aramide deadpanned as she stared at him with a blank expression on her stressed features, her forehead creased and the edge of her lips curled downwards. Her hands were loose by her side as she casually walked into the sitting room and sat on the nearest chair to the exit. Neither men spoke or tried to do anything during this time, it almost felt like their limbs weren’t working, on one hand, Efrain had never thought he would meet this side of Aramide, the side that was dominated by the personality of ariel she portrayed. On the other side, Cole was still finding it hard to accep
ARAMIDE [178] I'm scared.
Aramide felt her heartache in her chest, she could barely breathe as her knees buckled. She fell to the ground beside her shattered phone. Her eyes filled with unshed tears and her lip wobbled. How could this be? Why hadn’t she seen this coming? This was exactly what she feared and it was coming to pass, Bola was one step ahead of her. Aramide choked on her thoughts as she wiped the tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks. She needed to stop this, she needed to stop bola, but how? She no longer felt like she would be enough to put an end to that menace, it had barely been twelve hours since she left the warehouse, and bola had not only found the place and gotten rid of all her men, but she also killed Tania while she was at it. Tania. Aramide never had the best relationship with her step-sister, they were always at loggerheads with each other, the woman couldn’t pinpoint why
