When I was still 9, I used to ask my mother to buy me candy whenever she went out. I didn’t really pay attention to her where she was going but I knew that she would be back with the candy. She would always yell at me for touching my clothes because that is what I would often do whenever I had finished eating. I irritated my mother a lot and I guess that is a part of being a child. And no matter how often we annoy our parent's, they continuously show us love.

“Miss Mokoena!” Mr Phenyo shouted. I almost got a heart attack. 

“Sir?” 

“The GOH is improving on security, each agent must go to the control room to have their data recaptured. Make sure that you go there as soon as possible." Mr Phenyo instructed. 

“Thank you Sir. I will do that right away."  

“Go to the Lab. Ben will assist you” Mr Phenyo said,walking towards his office. 

I was surprised to see that he c

    Mika and I asked to see the footage of that entire night. The head of security fortunately still had it. No one had stolen the evidence. We looked over the footage, repeatedly but still found nothing.“This is not helpful. Mrs Caseem must know something.” I said.“We should abduct her, that way she’ll tell us what we need to know.” Mika suggested.But stealing her would be dangerous, we needed her to survive,we needed a doctor to keep her alive.“But what if she dies suddenly,we are not doctors.” I said.“What about the doctor that was treating your father?”“Doctor Simmons! But can she be trusted?" I wondered."We can check her credentials. Know anyone who can help us quickly?"I contacted Mr Phenyo right away.“Sir I need your help!”“Speak!” Mr Phenyo replied.“Can you please check if

    “Fine! My name is Paul. I am part of the Sevens Brothers, I just recently joined. I was given my first mission to steal a baby with eight legs. And don’t ask who,because that’s all I was told.”The Sevens Brothers again! How many are they and why cant we seem to find them?” Mika shouted angrily.“The Sevens Brother’s are everywhere. You cant find them, but they will find you. New members have to wear a mask until they complete their first mission. That is why I don’t know their place.”“Then you are not useful at all to us.Let’s kill him.” said Mika. Grabbing the thief by the neck.“No! Tell us more,we need more.”The thief was gagging for air,trying to speak.“Let him go”.“The man who sent me told me its a favour for his doctor friend.I didn’t bother asking much,because that’s not what we real

    In my junior year of highschool, I developed a liking for tatooes, they attracted me somehow. Some of the girls in my class had ones made on their bodies. Butterflies, dragons, snakes and even faces of popular people. I loved tatooes, but my mother didn’t. She believed that tatooes attracted evil spirits.so I forgot the entire tatoo idea, trying to be an obedient child. Instead of doing tatooes I chose to paint another way of releasing the things I felt inside of me.“Miss Mokoena, Mr Ludik, come in I have been expecting you.” said Mr Phenyo.Mika and I sat down.“I came for the file, I have been told about a new case,involving tatooes.” I said.Mr Phenyo smiled, he brought with him a two files then handed it over to each of us. “When you are in this line of work, you don’t always have to be secretive, speak to someone, be open don’t use people without their knowledge, it only puts you in gre

    At the Steakhouse Diner..“Welcome, would you like a menu?” asked one of the waiters.“Coffee will do.” I replied.“And what about you sir?”Mika observed the menu,as well as Katleho. They both seemed indecisive about what to order.“Give me a T-bone steak with chips. Said Mika.“Oh my word,seriously” I said."What? I eat when I'm anxious."Katleho also ordered the same meal as Mika's."“Sir, can you also call the manager while you’re at it. We need his help its urgent!” I said.The manager arrived quicker than expected. A fine looking manager she was. With her perfectly tailored jacket, green in colour, matching with the theme of the restaurant. She and my mother would get along perfectly. The green team would be their new nickname.“Good afternoon. I am Lira, the manager you called. What

    .My mother had her evening dress on, she looked amazing.“wow mom you look really hot in that dress!” I said, teasing.“I am 50 year old woman, I am supposed to look hot.” she laughed.I weared my usual clothes, but my mother made me change them, she chose a red laced dress,then cut in on the legs, to make it shorter,she quickly sewed a red silouhette on the top of the breast part making it look fashionable. I was impressed. She was not bad at fashion after all but I chose better jackets. Like father, like daughter.Sam showed up at the right time. He was wearing a red T-shirt, and blue jeans, his hair was perfect, it reminded me of superman. We exchanged greetings.My mother was smiling, I guess she was impressed.“So what do you for a living Sam?” my mother asked, with an intimidating look in her eyes.“I am an IT specialist.” he did not even blink, but I did. My heart was pouding really fast.“how much do you make

    A mirror gives of a reflection of who we are, it can also be used to help remind us of who we trully are. Like the song “Man in the mirror” by Michael Jackson we do need to take a look at ourselves first, change how we treat others first before expecting others to treat us well. That’s my understanding of the song. But there are many other ways to interpret its meaning. “Wow! Mom this looks delicious. Can I have a taste” I asked. The table was neatly covered with white linen, purple grapes overfilled the salad bowl,the cockery and cutlery carefully arranged in just the correct sequence. The kind of formal look you would see in expensive formal restaurant’s and five star hotels.“Leave those grapes alone. We will eat them when our guest arrives.” said Patricia, giving me a tap on the hand.“What guest?” I asked.“Don’t tell me you are throwing a party!”

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.“She wont,

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

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.

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
