          We know about the "five", but we do not know anything about them or how they came to be right.....  Ella was the oldest of them all, followed by Bruno, Michelle, Ekaris and finally, Clinton. Long before then, they had respected the peace and serenity of the friendship, they never in any way breached what was meant for the other.

Michelle and Ella, were the first to come together as friends, they lived an admirable life of true friendship. Ella was cold hearted whereas, her friend was hot tempered ......so, they had a way of understanding their different nature. Later joined them was Ekaris, he was the immediate younger brother to Michelle. The three of them carried on the friendship for several years before Bruno and Clinton who were friends before later joined them. That was how their number increased to five.

CLINTON, an honorable fellow. He was a lucrative scholar and had the interest of the members at heart despite being the youngest. He was not the boisterous type or was he the quiet type either. He was a lovable being, but one thing about him was that he had no interest in whatever that has to do with love. He never believed in love. That notwithstanding, he was the most loved among them all. The only sexual life he had was with a girl named kate. And talking about sexual life, not the type Bruno and Enola engaged themselves in, it was something more like just normal friendship. The only romantic connection they once had was just holding of hands and hugging. Kate would always complain that he knew nothing when it comes to sex and romance, Clinton and his nature, he did not even care, he was just after his own happiness and money. That was how he lost kate to someone more romantic.

EKARIS, the quiet one. Very cunning, witty and smart too. He does not do anything on his own most times. You know how scavengers do, always moving from one point to another looking for what to inherit. A predator when it comes to taking what makes people happy. He had little or no romantic life.

ENOLA, the pretty diva. Looked very promising and with so much endowments. She was from the coast side. Coast side was actually a partitioned area or environment, very close to the ocean or sea. At the other side of the town, there was the Coast of Kris, that was the exact area Enola was born. People from the coastal regions were being regarded highly simply because of their direct relationship with countries that import or export necessary items. The reason why they had to relocate to their present location remained unknown. Though the dad, who works with the airports authority did not relocate with them. Enola's dad has worked with the authorities for several years as they were staying at kris and even after Enola and her mom relocated. The dad visited most often especially when he had days off. Enola resembled her mom in all ramifications. From the round face, to the exceptional hips and moderate height. The beauty was a topnotch and the fairness was just like the fanciful coloration of light displayed during the radiation of the ultraviolet rays of the sun on a plain surface. The beauty was indeed in the family line. No wonder she looked the way she did, all thanks to her mom.

BRUNO, the lady's man. In stature, he had a perfect body. Broad shoulders and oval face. He had what it takes to make a girl fall easily, but he was a flirt. With a voice of a melodious cantor, he threatens to force a smile on the beholders face.  Bruno graduated from school as a Management science student. He had greater regards when it comes to  matters surrounding money and besides, he had the more money among the five. Bruno's parents were still alive and were very healthy, each still attending to the businesses. The mom was a teacher whereas the dad was a business co-ordinator, maybe that was why he had to study management in school. He had two other siblings, they were girls. One was still an undergraduate whereas the last one was yet to enter.  There was a time Ekaris and Bruno almost had serious issues. The cause of the matter was that Ekaris wanted to mess around with his sister without his own knowledge. Ekaris was cunning and smart, like he was mischievious with his smartness. If it had been Clinton that wanted Bruno's sister, he would have not desisted because he was someone that was transparent and honest. He never hid to do anything or ever gone to the back to stab a friend. 

Ekaris secretly lured Nora, Bruno's sister, to start having a secret relationship with him. He hid everything from the peers, and Nora did likewise from her family. The first person among the entire group to notice was Clinton, who had a way of observing and relating. When he finally decided to relate the whole stuff to Bruno, not like he betrayed Ekaris, but the friends knew themselves well; maybe he just wanted to bring the awareness of Bruno to the whole situation. The Intel part of it was that, Ekaris do sneak to Bruno's house to meet Nora whenever no one else was at home. This kept on happening until Clinton related the secret to Bruno. Bruno confronted his sister first before taking any drastic measure, he issues a serious warning to her in other to avoid Ekaris. Ekaris was confronted too. So, that was how the secret relationship between Nora and Ekaris crumbled.  Does that mean Bruno was right then, or was he just acting out of guiltiness?. Those actions of Bruno on Ekaris life must have been the main reason why at some point in life, he felt this rage to scavange like a rampaging monster. Or maybe, he actually did found a way to settle his scores advantageously to his own ordinance.

  • Fire and Flame   The plan for the trip.

    Normally, within every year, Bruno and friends usually make out time to go on a short trip. Wait, before I continue, let's give these group of friends a name. “The paragons" will be fine, it's our joint decision to give them the name though.So, that year, the Paragons decided to go to the woods for their normal yearly trip. The trips usually last for three to four days. So, before the trip, certain preparation were being made by different individual. Each had to take up the role he or she could handle; the food aspect, the sports aspect, the organizing of the tents, the security aspect and host of others. It was Ella and Bruno that assessed the location and found it worthy for the trip. It was on a very cold and whispering evening that the both of them set out for the mission of finding a suitable site for the trip. All the Paragons met right in front of Bruno's house before they set out. Bruno drove all the way from the environs to the entrance of the woods. With the

  • Fire and Flame   In the woods

    “I never knew you can drive", Bruno said as he saw Enola arrived in a car.“A lot about what I can do you don't know about, she smiled and continued, just when you see me doing them, don't be surprised".They embraced themselves and she got a peck on the forehead. It was the day they planned to start the trip, all had agreed to assemble at Bruno's house for easy and straight forward movement. Enola arrived first, the reason is was very obvious. It became clearer that Enola was in love with Bruno. They way they relate and the way they act like they were newly married. Definitely, people should have lots of reasons to envy the lovers; at this, I do not blame Ekaris for the way he felt.Not too long after Enola arrived, the rest of the Paragons arrived too, like they planned the time themselves. Thanks goodness, Enola arrived with a car too. The journey already made easy. They packed everything they would need for the trip, some inside Bruno's car why the rest how's to

  • Fire and Flame   Story night

    There was a fire place which they made in order to keep themselves warm. All of them where seen gathered around the fire like it was a committee of witches having their meeting, planning on a mission to devour. Each of them was putting on thick article of clothing to help the body warm faster. The cold was much like it was winter. It’s a known phenomenon that areas surrounded by water are most often cool especially the cool breeze that makes one thing that he or she was about to freeze. That’s because, during the day, the sun heats hard on the ground producing heat that helps warm the rivers, then at night, the river produced immense cool breeze that helps to keep the ground cold. It exhibits diffusion, not like the we are talking about liquids though, but it works in a more likely way; which means, it’s coldest in areas closer to the river or sea and colder in areas far apart. One may ask why those friends weren’t afraid of the dark and the seclusion of the area, amidst cre

    It was already morning and they were all set for the day’s activity. It was hide and seek game. Everyone was ready for the game apart from Enola. She seemed little bit weak and exhausted.“Guys, I can’t come along, I feel really weak like I will fall sick. Let me just stay back and rest”, she Enola notified them.“Hmm, sounds so suspicious”, Michelle whispered to the hearing of Ekaris.“I don’t even wanna think about that, he whispered back and continued aloud… let’s just leave her behind and go ahead with the game”.They all left her behind like she insisted, Bruno was the last person to leave the area because he wanted to make sure that she was in good situation before joining others. Now, they would have to play the game in singles instead of pairing in twos. “You guys already know the rules of the game, we will spin a bottle, whoever gets spotted by the angle of spin will be the one to seek whereas, the rest hides”, Bruno instructed.“Please, let’s not go too far to avoid one mis

  • Fire and Flame   The love Conquest.

    They were already coming to the end of their stay in the woods. That was probably, the last night they would spend there. That night was so memorable for some and as well normal for others. Due to the effect of the last game they played, they were all drained and famished. Normally, they usually go to the river to freshen up one after the other. It was Enola's turn, she left with her necessary articles of clothing down to the river to take a bathe. Maybe Ekaris thought she needed an escort and decided to follow her without her knowledge. Enola was moving faster and left much meters for him to cover up.So, when he finally got to the river, he sighted from afar and realized that Enola was already stripped. He decided to watch closely from the distance. The magnificent body of a wholesome creature, like assorted meals prepared for the calibers. Her beauty beamed like that of a goddess and her flexibility of heart made her so attractive. Ekaris was at his hiding place, obse

    “I have something to say guys”, Bruno said as they were already gathered discussing.“And what could that be?”, Ella asked representing the anticipation of the whole Paragons.“Actually, it’s a proposal. Can Enola join the Paragons?” She asked.There was some kind of silence, they were definitely waiting for who would speak first. Though, I see lots of reasons why she should be admitted as one of them. She had followed them almost everywhere they went to and also did to some extent, what they did. “It’s not bad if I should say”, Clinton said.“She has been here and there with us, so making her officially one of us isn’t bad idea at all”, Michelle supported what Clinton said. And the rest of them had no objection about the issue. “Thanks guys, for accepting me”, she appreciated with beams of smiles on her face. They didn’t bother to know what prompted Bruno’s suggestion but one person did. Ekaris had a constant way of suspecting Bruno and Enola. He believed that whatever they were

    In the winter’s day, it’s as cold as ice right?..... The cold experienced during the winter is often not foretold. When the sun is directly overhead the equator or tropic of cancers or capricorn, whichever one, also when the north wind meets the sea. At their meeting, a catastrophic conjugation of misplaced ego as per which would persist. The esteemed purpose of their existence deflected and the unalloyed confliction stages. As this staging is going on, some part of the earth suffer it the most. A solidification of essence and prostitution of non conserved weather. That leads to the desertification of some areas and seclusion of areas.The Paragons were very much closer and lovable. Just the way people loved and preferred summer to winter, In that same manner, people loved them and admired them. Some things happened and some things led to another.

    At a very unconventional period, there appeared to be a conflict of romance. Clinton was left uninformed since he was the only one that seemed not to understood the underlying truth of the moment. He had things that kept him busy other than love and romance. The worst part, it was a cyclic romance. The only person he would suspect was Ekaris because he knew what the guy can do. Very cunning, smart and as well, wicked to some extent. He would do everything possible to have his way due to his cheered selfishness. At some point, Clinton confronted him to inquire exactly what would make such an individual behave in a way so affectionately unaccepted.The response he got from Ekaris almost made him to hate him. He decided from then to keep of Ekaris’s path and mind his absolute business.

At least to clear of certain things that were heavy on her. She suffered from loneliness and frustration from heart break. They day she planned to travel came too quick and she made her travel in solitude and silence without letting any of them know about it.The reason for the heart break, not like it was very official but there’s a way you must have gone with someone to notice the meaning of every action and reaction that comes from the person.

  • Fire and Flame   Insincerity

    We are not physically connected and as such, whatever I say stands to be right or worthy to be believed. It's not certain that one will say things the exact way they appeared to be, in as much as your presence wasn't relevant, what he or she wanted, that's what you would be told. Let's take for instance, I'm having an affair with another lady that's not my girlfriend and my girlfriend wasn't in sight, she traveled or I was the one that traveled. She called when the affair was going on, it would take just the comportment of the side girl to convince the main babe that you were sleeping before she woke you up, no matter how suspicious she might seem to be, she wouldn't be sure as well to conclude.Bruno and Enola were physically apart, and no one knew how longer that would be.
