At the Safehouse… 

 

Katleho was sipping on coffee this time, she was watching Silent voices, my favourite show. 

“Is this season two?” I asked. 

“Yeah, how far are you?” 

“Season 5, episode 11.” 

“It’s hard not to get addicted. This show is epic.” 

“Tell me about it!” we laughed. 

Mika arrived. 

“What are you guys bragging about now?” he asked, throwing himself on the couch, causing the tea to spill. 

“Hey, I just washed these!” Katleho complained. 

“Sorry babe.” Said Mika, he looked genuinely sorry. “let me clean up this mess” he added.

“No leave it! i will do it.” Katleho said, taking her stained towel to the laundry machine. 

“One day she’s going to dump me!” 

I laughed.

    Meeting with Sam's parents felt a little awkward, but great. I was glad that they didn't do any racist remarks. I looked at my phone and realised that it was time to leave for work. My mother had prepared bohobe. I put it into a plastic food container and left."You're late. Apparently Mr boss wants to see us in his office." Said Mika."And you waited for me to arrive to go in, what does your girlfriend have to say about that?" I teased.Mika paused,he said nothing until we entered Mr Phenyo's office. "Finally you came." Said Mr Phenyo, handing both Mika and I a casefile each."Thanks. Sir. We'll be in our way out." I said."Before you go,I want to thank you.""For?" Mika asked, I pinched him slightly on his hand.He brushed it off."For being patient with the organisation, for being loyal,for proving yourself worthy enough to be called Agents of the Hex. I know that it's not easy. This job can have it's.." Mr P

  • Guardians of the Hex   A certain presence

    My mother would only call me during work hours only if it was an emergency.She respected protocol. When I arrived,I saw a second car parked in the yard. I didn't even have to knock at the door as it was wide open. It was as if calling out for me to enter."Finally, you're here!" Patricia shouted in excitement. She came towards me,then grabbed me by the hand, pulling me to her. "Come I want you to meet someone." She said. I kept my silence and wondered what it was I had to see. There she was, with bangles on her hand and large round ratings on her ears,it was Sam's mother,Lynette. Her eyes widened when I entered the dining room. I exchanged greetings with Lynette. She offered me a long hug and I could smell her sweet rose perfume."I am sure you're curious about why we are all here. The wedding is happening in two months and we still don't have a caterer!" Patricia stated.I couldn't feel my cheeks for that moment, I was embarrassed,how could I have f

  • Guardians of the Hex   Limitless

    Watching silent voices on my laptop,helped remind me that life doesnt end now,but instead continues on. I sometimes wondered what I would feel once I was dead,would I cry? Feel sad? Feel angry? Or feel hurt?There are times where I also wish I could change things that happened, make wiser decisions,and if there was a way to turn back time or rather be in a different timeframe then return back to the present I would do so.Limitless,how I wish I could wander freely,having no regrets, doing wise decisions all the time. I would be right all the time. Hmmm.. but such things only exist in my thoughts well,some of them do."I can't believe it,my baby is getting married!" My mother shouted. I had finished eating my breakfast in peace, I didn't expect to see my mother so early in the morning."Morning to you too" I said,then rushed to the door hoping to escape my mother's long repeated conversations."Oh Lee when will I see

    "Finally!"I said in relief, I could access the hidden data I needed."Have you found anything yet?" Mika asked."Yes it's a lot to take in but guess what.i got it!" I shouted in excitement."What is it?"Katleho asked,leaning over my shoulder staring closely at the screen."Project Xena!" I said looking at the folder then I clicked enter to see more details. There was only an image of a hexagonal shaped metal with a gold cover on it.There was no other information, no words only the object ""That's project Xena? I wonder what it does!" Said Katleho."I wonder the same thing.!"But more than that I wondered why Mr Phenyo looked anxious when he heard the term Xena corporation. He seemed to know a lot. And why did Ben seem reluctant to talk about it,what was he hiding,I wondered.Meanwhile Mr Phenyo is in his apartment with Ben."You need to let go of the past,it brings nothing but pain!" Said Ben

Said Patricia.Mr Phenyo chuckled."I don't know about huge.Does size really matter?" Mr Phenyo joked.Patricia laughed."You have a sense of humor. Interesting."Mr Phenyo felt awkward,was Patricia flirting. Yes she indeed was flirting."I called you here for an important reason. " Said Mr Phenyo."My daughter's wedding.

    Mika called me early in the morning. I hadn’t expected that from him.I knew how much he loved his personal time undisturbed. “so early? Did someone die?” I teased.Mika chuckled.“you need to come to the safe house, Katleho and I have found something.”With that said, I put the phone down, took a quick shower, an apple or two for breakfast and I left. My mother didn’t even see me leave.At the safe house, Katleho was not in her usual blue striped pyjamas,I felt relieved inside. She only held a cup of coffee in one hand and a paper in the other. Reading the paper intensely.She didn’t even notice me entering the room, nor was she startled when she heard the door close. After a few minutes trying to put her gaze away from the paper, She finally looked up at me, with a smile on her face. “Lebo finally you came!” said Katleho with a relieved sigh in her voice.&

Asked Katleho."But Agent S has promised to help us find him.""Agent S?""He finds people. He is good at making bombs as well. He has been working here for more than ten years."

She is also as important as any other agent here and should be treated as a GOH case!" Mika pressed."Mika calm down." Katleho said in a low voice."No! I refuse to keep calm about this. W

We hadn’t eaten all day, Byron was still upset as we had murdered his beloved assistant Lisa.One of the guards entered with only a plate of food.“The boss said you can choose to share if you want.” he said. Handing me the plate of food, he then left.Mr Phenyo did not say anything, he sat there in silence.“would you like a piece?” I asked.“a piece of Byron yes.”I chuckled. Even as I was starving, my appetite for the food had completely disappeared.“I wont eat anything, Byron is not getting any more of my blood.”“Then that would be the stupidiest move you could do. Eat, get your strength, get out and run.” said Mr Phenyo.“Why do you suddenly care about me? Or is it the guilt you are feeling after murdering my m

The man is experimenting on rats doing God knows what, he even chats to them you can see that he’s insane and we still have not seen anything that could prove that he is somehow involved in Lebohang’s disappearance.” said Ben.“Fine, youre right”“A new case has come up, let’s go to my office.

There was a noise outside the house, he peaked through the window and saw a car parked outside and Patricia walking towards the house. Mr Phenyo rushed to hide in Chris’ old bedroom which had now been used by Patricia.“What the hell does she want?Shouldnt she be at the wedding? She will have to tell me where the file is. No thats a bad idea, Miss Mokoena will hate me..

    Byron hadn’t called anyone on the phone. But his mental state had not changed he was still insane. He hadnt abducted anyone yet, but he still did his experiments.“All of my rats have gone missing, as if they knew I was after them as if they were saved by an angel.” Byron said, holding a rat with his two hands tightly preventing it from breathing. Byron then looked up at the ceiling, Agent lunga controlled the robo bugs to try and hide them.“you whoever you are who is listening, I urge you to stop what you are doing and join me instead.” Said Byron. He hadn’t noticed that the robo bugs were in the room, but he did speak on empty space, somehow he knew or assumed that there were indeed people looking at him without his knowledge.“Be very discreet from now, we are dealing with a very intellegent man, we need to stay alert all the time. We cant make any mistakes.” warned Ben.Byron took a jug filled

And began to laugh.“I see a two year kid, butt naked carrying a ball and laughing. I was probably playing.”“and I see something else entirely. I see joy, we struggled so much but you were so happy my child. You didn’t even know how much pain I was in at the time, how stressed I was for not being employed, not being able to provide for you.It was so hard back then.” Patricia cried.“But we didn’t stru

    Getting married was something I never thought could happen to me, let alone last this long in a relationship with a man. After the rape incident I found it hard to be attracted to any man. I hate them, they disgusted me. Mr Phenyo had a charm to him that made my knees weak, but he also scared me. However with Sam, thing’s were different, he was the ideal match I had long been waiting for. Where was Mr Phenyo anyway? I wondered.Early in the morning, at the GOH site, cafeteria.“one week left and you’ll be Mrs Hansling.” said Sam, the smile on his face was so wide, that you’d swear he was advertising toothpaste.“Do you have a groomsman yet?” I asked“do you have a bridesmaid yet?”I chuckled.We both had a lot of work to do.“Do you think Mika would agree to be my groomsman?”“Mika’s is my friend, so y
