Not wasting time, Alixies dragged back her chair, trying her best not to disturb the serene environment in the class as she jerked to her feet– this brought Rubin's attention on her again. He deftly turned his gaze as he lifted his eyes, meeting her creased gaze.
"Where are you going? " He loud whispered to which she spontaneously replied."Need to run now – got an urgent issue to attend to. Kindly pass by the house with my bag after class, okay? Please.""Is it about that message?" He asked on an impulse. "Or still going after Ben?" With this Alixies sauntered off, ignoring his numerous questions."Hey!–But" He stuttered with his eyes tailing after her, his hand stretched out in an attempt to stop her but they were already few distance apart which made him pause in his words–letting out a faint groan of frustration. Not ready to get everyone's attention, he gave up with his eyes still fixed on the hourglass shaped fair girl, who wasWith the rack of the door, Mya and Laura both froze with their gazes fixed on the door which was yet to throw ajar, as the familiar voice penetrated the quite room. Their thoughts went blank with absolutely nothing in mind-it was like a dead end for Mya. Laura's flushed gaze instinctively fixed on Mya's and she flinched."No, do something now, Mya ---you must not be seen here" Laura mumbled and Mya fidgeted as if she could actually hear her sister's warning. Turning to the wardrobe at the right end of the room, she spontaneously made a dash for it.Hansel sauntered in but automatically paused at the door to which his eagle eyes scanned through the whole room as if he could see through each corner. Soon he sensed he wasn't alone ; the sense of another human alerted him as he took steady steps towards his desk. Mya and Laura noticed the sudden silence and was alarmed." What's he up to?~ did he notice my presence?" Mya low whispered and Laura stared at her as the
Hansel sauntered out of the car and Alixies who watched from a distance stuttered in disbelief~ her jaw stiffened as the words faintly escaped her lips. " Mr Hansel?"She gasped and this grew her curiosity the more." Why is he here ?" She thought but then, a thought hinted which shoved off the other- her eyes instinctively widened as they involuntarily bated. " Did they already call for a ransom for his head?" She mumbled. But then, something else caught her attention which gave life to her previous thought; the man guarding the entrance spontaneously bowed his head in respect the moment Hansel trod past him.'' What the hell is going on here" She exclaimed and as if on an impulse, added. "Nothing seem to add up~ I must find out what all this is about" . After Hansel had faded in with the man at the entrance, Alixies hastened down as well and crept in through the only source of entry which her quick survey had proven."Where did you keep him?" She heard him inqu
Ben spontaneously shook in his entangled seat as if to free himself which made Hansel chortled."Let me go, dad– I'm really not into this game of yours, please. I guess we already talked about this" Ben stated in a swift, his voice echoed with anger, frustration and pain. To which Hansel inched to his side in a flash, clenching his jaw with his crawled fingers which made Ben groaned, his glaring eyes stared at his face like a piercing arrow which clearly spelt out his anguish and hatred. Hansel smirked, his mouth set in a tight frown~ he gripped Ben's shoulder so tightly that his bones felt pinched even though the his woolen coat covered it." Do you think i'm gonna give up so easily?" He chuckled. " No~" He added on an impulse. " Did you really think your brother committed suicide? and Elosie, his fiancee... huh?" He asked which made Ben stared into his eyes with a confused gaze. His eyes suddenly glistened with unshed tears as he scanned through his fat
Hansel sauntered through the door into the hall that evening to meet his family seated at the hall, watching the news update on Elosie's suicide case. As often happened with mysterious deaths, speculations became rife by the hour as everyone tried to find possible causes and the rumour mill continued to chum it's vicious tale. His approaching steps brought the gaze of both Delia and Ben, who had no idea of what was really going on and Marvin's attention on him." Dad" Ben exuded, matching up to him at the entrance, of which Delia followed with a smile and hugged him, landing a kiss on his cheeks."Welcome, honey" She cheerfully greeted. On noticing him, Marvin instinctively jerked up from his side of the seat and shuffled up the stairs which made Ben and Delia stared at his back, worried. Delia who only knew his absurd attitude may be the cause of his father's rejection to his decision to take up basketball as a career, instantly feigned a smile."Um, sorry about Marvin's a
With the fast approaching steps, Alixies swiftly crept down the corridor as quiet as she could and spontaneously ducked into a short hall that led to a number of rooms which seemed like a cluster of classrooms of which she hid behind a corner~ her twinkling blue eyes and brown curls instinctively peeked out from her hideout.Halfway through the corridor, she noticed two men approaching the room which Hansel had kept Ben but then, what caught her eyes made her gasp and her lower lips instinctively quivered. She was petrified with fear~ her brows wet with invisible sweat and her knees felt numb as she held on her breath with a horrified gaze." Oh.... those kids" Her voice trembled and as if on an impulse. " No, this can't be- don't tell me you also deal in selling of kids as well, Mr Hansel."A lot seem to be rushing through Alixies thoughts now with the sudden appearance of the three kids. Not really having any idea how related they were to the Hanse
Alixies watched the men trod into the room which held Ben hostage by Hansel with the kids as she ducked into a safe corner nearer; making their conversation more audible for her ears. With her hands readily fixed on the recorder, she swiftly pressed it into motion as Hansel's hoarse voice echoed with a sinister look~ ignorant of her presence, he shot a chuckle." Um, wait...this isn't fun enough; why not get it more fun" He said as he signaled the men in.Ben's gaze still fixed on the gun which hovered over his skull; fear fluttered in his chest like a trapped bird and his face became paler. With the entrance of the two men, their little companions instinctively caught his attention which made him shot in the trapped chair with fury. His face twisted with anger, his hand trembling with rage." Let them go, Dad!" He roared in pain and anguish, tears dropped down his cheeks as his eyes kept glued on his little siblings. They stared at him in tears, fea
Left with no option, Hansel spontaneously lifted his hand in surrender as he dropped down the gun in the process. With swift steady steps, the police surrounded him and led him out in cuffs. Nelly, Nina and Nelson, on noticing their father, rushed to him. He instinctively crunched down and bundled them in a hug~ their tears trekked down as they trembled in his bosom." Sshh....It's okay, dad is here now" Drake assured." Someone... Get the ambulance now, please!" Ben who had now been freed from the robes, howled amidst tears as he lifted Alixies onto his laps; her motionless body, resting on his chest. " Wake up, please~" He cried." Till when are they going to get here..... She's dying" Laura cried, shaking in tears.The moment of her unfortunate day, suddenly replaying in her mind as she stared at Alixies. Just then, she felt weak and drowsy~ the body she'd possessed, Mya's body, slowly faint to the floor. She glanced at the body infront of her, Mya l
MYA'S DREAMLaura kept going down a dark narrow little hallway, following the soft cries which kept drawing her; until the noise was only a thud, not a roar. Huddled a few meters from where she stood, she noticed a glow like that of a lamps' ~ it seem to be the only light in the tunnel; yet so fragile which made Laura squint her eyes to catch a better glance of whatever it was. As she stepped closer, it spontaneously lifted it's head, glancing up at it's interrupter~ revealing her pale, tensed and terrified face. Her eyes puddled in tears; red and rimmed with tears." Mya ? " She cried in a near whisper, her eyes danced with unshed tears.It was actually a she not it; it was Mya~ Laura's face intuitively registered her surprise as her sister instinctively jerked up and threw her arms around her, pulling her into a tight hug as if she was gonna vanish with just a breath. Her gentle expression was tinged with terror; fear pulled her smile into
