DARK OBSESSION The verdict
There was tension in court as Nanny Cassie was called up into the witness dock. Grace shut her eyes for a moment as she saw the Nanny who was standing on the dock with her head bowed. After taking the oath, Tracy began to throw series of questions at her. "How long have you been working at the Smith's mansion?" She asked "For almost three decades" she stated "Great. Now as a Nanny who has witness a lot that has been ongoing in the Smith's mansion, tell us what you know about the abuse case and Mrs Grace's involvement in the murder of Mrs Rodrigo Eden's grandmother" she continued. "When Eden was taken back to the mansion, I began to notice a few unusual things about him. He sometimes refuses his meals, and he becomes emaciated. Sometimes, he would lock himself up in the room and I would hear him cry. One night, I saw Grace take him out of his room and she led him into the Master's room while he was away on a business trip. I tiptoed and leaned on the door listening to their voices

He stood up from the bunker bed as he heard the sound of the steel gate opening. He has been placed in the city's minimum security prison before his transfer to a maximum security prison in Joanesco. He followed behind the warder as they walked through the hallway which holds different cell rooms. A few armed men in uniforms could be seen, mounting in front of the prison cells. He was led into a large field in the open where he could see a few inmates who were having a good time with their family and friends. Heavily armed Security personnels could be seen, patrolling around the facility which was fenced all round. His face beamed with smiles as he saw his family and friends waving over him at the field. As he walked closer to them, he could see Jessica running to meet him. "Eden!" She cried as she hugged him tightly. He held her closely for a while as everyone watched with smiles on their faces. He looked ahead of her and he could see His father and mother standing with his sist

"Hey," Julius called as he walked over to him with a glass of fruit juice in his hand. "Hey man," Eden called as he munched his fries "You know, I'm proud of you" Julius said with a smile He nodded "Thank you for being a true friend" he said and Julius smiled. "You know, Smoke's perspective about you has changed a lot. He no longer sees you as an enemy to the state" he said "Oh, really?" Eden asked in surprise "Yeah. He sends his regards. He has been transferred away from chimalpa" he said and he nodded. "My mom sends her regards too. She's really happy right now that you did the right thing. She has spent a couple of months praying for you" he said and Eden smiled "I wish I could meet her one more time" he said and they both smiled. "Eden, my worst fear is life in prison for you. You know how many of those guys you've put in there and they're probably waiting for you right now" he said anxiously He gulped and exhaled. "I know and I've been thinking about that. I will have

10 YEARS LATER MAXIMUM SECURITY CAMP, JUAREZ The lights fluctuated and the sounds of his leather boots could be heard as he walked hastily through the hallway. Holding a tray of tea, he kept a straight face as he walked past the warders and the heavily armed men mounting in front of the cells on both sides of the hallway. He took a left turn where he could see a passageway holding up to three cells. Two heavily armed policemen could be seen patrolling along the passage which was as calm as a graveyard. He stopped in front of the cell with a number tag, G3. The sound of the steel gate could be heard as it opened wide and he walked into the cell slowly. She rose up from the bunker bed and heaved a sigh as she turned to face him. Her lips curved into a mischievous smile as she saw him holding the tray with his head bowed. "Gracias" she muttered with a smile as she took the tray from him and he turned to walk away immediately. She sat on the bed with the tray resting on her legs.

"Emilia!" "Emilia!," She heard her name being called down the stairs. She hurried up from the bed immediately and looked at her five year old son who was beside the bed doing his homework silently. "Your father is back," she said, turning to look at him. The boy looked at her in a perplexed manner before turning to his books again. The door flung open instantly, showing a young man in his late twenties, he was tall and able bodied, fair in complexion with blonde hair. His face depicts anger and his eyes were bloodshot as he walked in dressed in a black fitted suit and tie. "You shameless bitch!!," He slammed at her. "You thought I wouldn't be able to find out about your affairs uh!!," he yelled as he walked closer to her. She shifted backwards gently, she knew what he was talking about and so she summoned courage and fixed her gaze on him. "Oh.. It's a good thing you finally found out about the scandal," she smirked "How could you!!!" He yelled and grabbed her throat while

It was dark and raining when they arrived in Mexico city. The car stopped in front of a bungalow which was painted brown. Emilia pulled him out of the car with his luggage beside him and they both rushed into the building with the rain splashing all over them. Everywhere looked strange to him as they walked into the house. The lights were dim and he couldn't see clearly. The sitting room was small, compared to the one at his Father's mansion. There were three Sofas and a small glass table in the middle of the room. A soft music was playing in the background and the smell of jade perfume filled the room. "Hey".. a voice startled him and he turned to see an able bodied man standing behind him, wearing a fierce look on his face and his chin was covered with beards. He flinched at the sight. Who could he be? He reasoned as they both stared at each other with the Man's look intimidating his frail mind. He felt like peeing on himself when his mother walked in. "Hey baby," she said and

He woke up with an acrid pain on his head. He looked around the room and it was morning already. The pain of yesterday was still fresh in his mind and he thought about the lady who helped assuage his pains. He didn't know her name, and she had left without a trace. He stood up from the bed and heard his mother's voice from the living room. He knew she was back from her trip already. "Hey son," Emilia called on sighting him walk into the living room. "Hi," he mumbled and tried to walk back to his room as he saw Derrick behind her. "Hey, what happened to you?!!!" She panicked as she saw his wound. He stopped and turned to look at her. He could see Derrick's eyes piercing him from behind. "What happened son?" She asked, looking at the wound carefully. "Um ... I.. Um.." He tried to speak while Derrick continued to smirk from behind. "I fell, I got injured at school," he lied. "What!! How many times have I warned against playing dangerously at school!!" She fumed. "Hey honey, tak

Those were the kind of vibes he actually needed. Most times, he would sneak into Derrick's room to look for a stick of cigarette which he took to his room and lock himself in the bathroom to smoke. One day at school, Julius taught him about smoking and how God hates it. "Would he stop being my friend if I smoke?" Eden asked curiously "Yes, if you want to keep being his friend you must stop smoking," Julius advised. And from that day, he decided to quit cigarettes. He stopped sneaking into Derrick's room to steal his cigarettes, yeah he needed to come clean he reasoned. As he laid on his bed doing his assignments, he heard his mother scream his name from the living room. He got up in a hurry and walked out to meet her. He found her standing angrily with Derrick beside her, he was trying to calm her down. "Get your ass here right now!!" She yelled as she saw him. He wondered what he had done wrong. As he approached her, She grabbed his ears and twisted it so hard that he let out a

"libertad al rey!!"(Freedom to the King) were the words that could be heard echoing around the whole place as the young men and women tried to gain entry into the court premises. The police and other security agencies could be seen, trying to enforce peace and order as they engaged the crowd who were causing a pandemonium over the premises with their chants. As the police van zoomed into the court premises, the chants increased and the gate of the Court was shut immediately while the crowd continued to chant outside. He was led out of the police van with Spider beside him.

Her wide full lips broke into a warm smile as she watched him being led into the visitors room with a policeman beside him. As he walked closer to her, his face beamed with a smile and he couldn’t explain the feelings of seeing her here again. “Hey,” she called with a smile as he took the seat facing her. He kept silent and stared at her face for a moment, with his face full of smiles “What?” She asked with a chuckle “You’re getting robust” he blurted and they both laughed. They kept silent for a moment with their eyes burning into each other. “I miss you Eden, i want you to come out of all this” she broke into tears immediately He heaved a sigh as his heart became heavy ``Jess, stop it” he said with emotions written all over his voice. She sniffed and wiped the tears off her face as she raised up her head to look at him. “You don’t really have to go to prison. You have an unborn child Eden, you have me” she cried and he looked away from her sadly. “I’m sorry for putting you

"Take a look at this shit dad! It's all over the papers!" He yelled as he dropped the newspaper on the table before his father "She deserves more than this!" Emilio yelled from his seat "Really? And you believe the trash your criminal son said back there? No! That's trash. You didn't even stand up for her! You didn't care about the family's name!" He continued "Enough Clement!" He yelled as he stood up angrily. "Your mother raped my seven years old son! How does it sound in your ears?!" He slammed. The door opened and Tracy walked into the house with Juliet. "What's going on?" She asked "He is taking sides with his mother," Emilio related "What! Are you dumb?!" Juliet barked as she walked towards him angrily "Put yourself in Eden's shoes. I don't think you can withstand any of those pains he went through" Tracy put in as she walked close to him. "You all can say trash for all I care. And you know what, I will be defending my mother in court!" He stated as he wore his glasses

"Overwhelmed by shock, I screamed and the men chased after me. As I ran out of the woods, I was hit by a car which happened to be Gabriel's car. He and his beloved wife Ella, rescued me that night from the hands of those men. I became obsessed with the thought that someone was after my life. And when Gabriel introduced me to the gang, I wasted no time in accepting his offer. I was only eight when I became a gangster. And since then, I've been consumed with vengeance and hoping one day I would have my vengeance on the people who killed grandma and all those who had hurt me" he related as he looked at Grace sternly. “And since then, they haven’t stopped coming for me. I was arrested at the airport because of i was setup by my step mother whi is sitting here with us in court” he spilled and the whole court was thrown into an uproar again. “Maxwell, standing beside me here can attest to the fact that he was offered a payment by mrs Smith to frame me up so i would end up behind bars” he
