She opened her eyes in her weakness and immediately recognized she was in a hospital with blue walls, white mattresses, white light , and an antiseptic smell.
For some reason, she never went totally unconscious, no. Not while the nurses took her in, not while they injected a drip into a brachial vein, not while they conversed amongst themselves saying;
“she will be okay, just a little trauma and a few bruises here and there. She’ll be back soon. She just needs some rest”
Now she was fully conscious and suddenly felt a surge of anxiety and adrenaline when it hit her;
‘where is Cas’ mother?’
She was supposedly brought in with her but on looking around at the few other beds in the empty ward, she was not there! So where could she be.
She got up swiftly with caution not to make a noise and gain attention.
She trudged to the door, staggering

ChinnyThe heavens had shut their eyes, darkness had come, the night was here.It scared her, for who knew what darkness brought in it's mouthShe was supposed to be happy walking down the beautiful blue lobby of Springfield high with Uche, the father of her child, holding her hand and flashing his sweet dimpled smile at her. She was not. For heaven was falling and death was nigh. Medusa was coming, coming for all their souls, and she knew it. For everything had gone wrong, and the plan had shattered, it was game over in her calculations.She looked at the happy man, Uche, her love, and tears filled her eyes as he stood her on the balcony with himself - a place he used to give her chocolates and tell her his funny dreams of becoming the king of the world.

Ronald Here was the joy, that some people actually missed him, thought of him, and loved him. Chinny had literally jumped on him and Uche, for the very first time in his life, hugged him. Scorpion, who’d just been standing at some corner couldn’t help but smile at how happy they were. He’d been reluctant about the whole thing, but now he was okay. He only had a few more hours to spend in Nigeria as his pilot had confirmed he was already set at the airport awaiting their arrival so they could take off.But he didn’t want to and even scorpion saw it. He was happy. Very. They’d laughed and laughed about lots of things as Uche would tease him about his new appearance, his beard!

ChadHe looked up to the deep blue color that embraced the clear evening sky as the dry harmattan weather of the Nigerian December descended on him and he inhaled deeply, smiling at the memories it brought him.It had been seven years since that cold night of a thousand events and boys were now grown men.He marveled at how much he had changed since he left the country years ago and how one eventful day had changed the course of his life forever, changing even the good to somewhat mediocre, it's all life; life is the funniest joke in all of history, he thought.He inhaled the humid air again with his eyes shut this time and it had that stink of corruption, insincerity, and dust lurking somewhere behind the humid odorless mess. He smiled because that was truly the smell of the home he knew, Nigeria, in all her glory.

UcheWhat did he mean by the question "what?”Chad had always been a smart ass right from those good old high school days. He was the role model then, the "good student", athletic and cute with those 'mickey mouse' glasses.Well, he was definitely not the best in terms of luck.Why would he come back at this time? When It's all fucked up."Well, I am fucked up too" Uche thought.His life had taken another turn after that fateful night and he was not to blame for it because he had just seen and experienced what many people spend their whole lives not experiencing together - love, fear, and death, all three in the same

After an hour of driving, they finally got to the city, the big city it was, big indeed.How long had it been since Chad last entered it? It was past 10pm and people were still moving about like it was 9am.The street lights were yellow and the buildings tall. The people were busy, as always, selling everything! with lamps and rechargeable touch lights. Hawkers running about with their goods in their hands, as agile as ever.The city was alive, as always. It brought back memories too, memories of how the three of them used to trek long distances just to get to the 'aboki' man's kiosk where that 'abacha' and 'boleh' women always were.They loved 'abacha!' - the African salad. And the way the woman used to bring them back every day with her magic 'abacha' was a mystery.The spice was so traditional and hot, mixed with that tasty 'ogbe' and lots of veggies and pepper.The roa

MEDUSA CHAPTER TWENTY TWO: THE TRIANGLE
The white range rover sport had exploded sending him into unconsciousness for a while. He had woken up to the face of the black Goliath staring at him.“Mother!” Chad called out as he saw his mother lying still on the red sand stained with blood.“she’s badly wounded” said the black Goliath“she needs a hospital. I’m going to rush her to the closest one!”“Wait! Let me go with you”“No! Save your strength. Find who did this!” the deep voice sounded as he lifted Mrs Okorie in his arms.“ Roma! Roma!” Chad called crawling to where she lay unconscious bathed in brown dust.She was swinging in between consciousness and unconsciousness. Only weak and tired but she seemed alright. He wasn’t sure, she might have an internal bleeding.However, she was mildly conscious.“He is going to rush you both to a hospital, you’re going to be alright.. “ he could hear the thumping of his heart.The two people he loved like hell were fig

ChinnyShe stared at him as he drove, thinking, wondering. If only she could explain to him everything, tell him her story, tell him all he didn’t know and how everything he thought was true wasn’t. But of course, he’s at it again, Uche fighting for all he loves, how cute. “what?” he smiled “ oh, nothing. You just didn’t change much that’s all” “ are you sure?” “yeah…” she gave a fake smile unsure of what next to say as her anxieties were getting the better of her. Her anxieties not because of Uche's presence, but because of the whole plan- the reason, the reason for her return.He didn’t know, no. He didn’t know how he was just a puppet in the master’s hands, playing on a field in which he has no control.A couple of years ago she had completed her masterpiece, Troy – a protocol she had developed to access literally anyth
MEDUSA CHAPTER TWENTY: GOOD YEARS
RonaldWith Zayn Malik's 'good years' song playing softly on the radio, Ronald sat on the back seat of his BMW X6 with Scorpion who'd been driving for over 30 minutes now.He'd been lost and quiet for a while now still shocked at what had just happened as the lyrics of the song's chorus spoke loud in his heart, it said;"I'd rather be anywhere , anywhere but here..."With Dr Grant's blood stains still there on the clothing in his hands (he'd changed into a black polo and a black leather jacket) with him starring at it, lost, and remembering the past, all of it. He shouldn't be in the position to tell his best friend about his father's death, no one should. "where are we going to sir? We've been driving around aimlessly for over thirty minutes" scorpion started with his cold, light but crispy voice.No reply "sir..."
