Brian looked into Brianna’s eyeball and gave a weird laugh, he returned his phone to his pocket afterward.Brianna looked into his eyeball in return and gave a weird laughter also.“Is she suspecting me?” He asked himself.“I doubt that” he mumbled adjusting himself on the couch.“Could you get one of the guards for me?” Brianna asked.“Yes ma’am” he replied standing up.On his way out to do as Brianna had instructed, “Am I about to get locked up?” He asked himself aloud.He got to the front of the mansion and signaled to a guard to come running, the guard got to where he stood and bowed.“Mother needs your attention,” Brian said and turned to head back inside subsequently, the guard followed Brian with his head still bowed.They both arrived at the living room, Brian made his way back to the couch he was seated on before Brianna sent him on an errand while the guard stood beside Brianna with his head bowed.“What about Joyce? Has she said anything yet?” Arianna asked the guard.Brian
Brianna spotted Joyce sitting at one corner of the room dressed beautifully as tho she’s a bride awaiting the groom.“Isn’t that Joyce?” Brianna asked looking confused.“It’s her!” Brian said pointing at Joyce.Joyce stood from where she sat and stared at everyone one after the other, it seemed she was contemplating the next step she ought to take.“I thought I ordered that she was tortured until she confesses?!” Brianna screamed looking straight into Joyce’s eyeballs.“Why is she glam up? Is she planning to escape?” Brian said aloud.“Claw!”“Can you explain what’s going on here?” Brianna yelled holding tightly her fists.“You had better start talking right away!” Brian added.Claw who was fidgety sat on the floor with his head bowed, his lips couldn’t stop trembling.“Do not let me repeat myself!” Brianna said looking at Claw.“It wasn’t my idea” Claw stuttered while saying.“Who’s idea was it?” Brian inquired.“I think I know, it’s Lucas’s and Alice’s” Brianna declared.“You sound
“You know for once I thought it was them until Brian in his words said I was beginning to think like you,” Brianna remarked as she coughed.“That was rude of him to say” “You were stating facts after all” Arianna said wearing a frown.“We shouldn’t talk while eating, we would continue from where we stop when we’re done eating,” Brianna said smiling.“You and your rules!” Arianna muttered.Arianna and Brianna started to eat in silence, Brian walked in a few minutes later.“I have them locked up!” He said while entering the house, he walked towards the living room to have dinner with Brianna as planned, he was close to the living room when he sighted Arianna.“Ari” he chuckled.Arianna started at him giving him a straight face.“I didn’t expect to see you here, I thought you had gone to bed” he spoke haltingly.“Well, as you can see I’m here now, have a problem with that?” Arianna responded.“Oh no, I was only surprised,” Brian said and proceeded to have a seat and he did that next to
“Sorry, I didn’t get that,” Brian said after a brief moment of silence.“And it took you that long say?” Arianna protested.“I was trying to process it” Brian stated.“But you just said you didn’t get what I had just said,” said Arianna.“I me....an I was try....ing to process if I heard what you had just said” Brian stuttered.“You know what? Never mind!” Arianna said rubbing her hands on her air.“Goodnight!” She added as she made her way into Brianna’s room.Brian remained on the spot confused, “Does she know something?”“Is she tryna play mind games?” He mumbled.I shouldn’t act as tho I’m shocked, she mustn’t remain suspicious “Goodnight Ari!” He screamed.Arianna ignored him as she continued walking away “I was dumb to think he would tell the truth” Arianna told Primal.“Do you know something I don’t?” Primal asked.“I should leave you to figure that out” she responded flipping her hair.Getting to Brianna’s room’s door, she opened the door and went in.“Wasn’t expecting you any
While in the shower, he thought of several ways he could be a step ahead of Jenna.“I need to be on my best behavior when we meet, I wouldn’t want her suspecting I have plans just in case,” he said to himself.A few minutes later, he was done showering, he proceeded to pick a towel hung at one side of the toilet which he drained himself with.Singing, he came out of the toilet “I should start packing immediately after I meet with Jenna” he said aloud walking towards the mirror.“You’ve got all under control” he reaffirmed closing his eyes.He reached out for an outfit from his wardrobe, it was a checkered shirt with biker shorts “I’d feel so comfortable in this” he thought, he hurriedly put on his clothes and walked up to the mirror again.“I wonder why Jenna wants us to meet this early,” he said while combing his hair, having done that he picked up his phone on the bed.“I’m set!” He sent it to Jenna on WhatsApp, he noticed his message hadn’t been delivered yet to her.“She could sti
"I'm closer than you think oh how I have missed this place" Brian read aloud not minding the fact that Arianna had seen the message same time as he did."She had the gut to send that!?" Arianna said in a high tone."Lower your voice, Ari,” Brian said demonstrating. “She mustn’t suspect I’m discussing her with you, to her it’s more like a friendly visitation” he added.Arianna gave no response as she stared at him cunningly, looking elsewhere after a few seconds.Arianna had gotten so pissed at that point that she went straight back to cooking wearing a frown, she ignited the gas cooker angrily and served the already burnt plantain into a bowl."Brian gets to eat this as his punishment, it was his fault after all he shouldn’t have frightened me in the first place,” she said to Primal angrily staring at the served burnt plantain. "Don't you think you are taking this a little too far?” primal asked.“Oh please! Do not even try to patronize me, I see you’re now on his side” Arianna said
“How am I supposed to know?” Arianna replied a few seconds later.“Do you think I should open the door just like that?” Brian asked breathing heavily.“I should go upstairs, you mentioned earlier she might not be convenient with my presence,” Arianna said wearing her flip-flop.“I’d be in my mummy’s room,” she said walking out of the living room.“You’re just going to leave me to all of this?” Brian asked in a low tone.“Your words not mine” Arianna replied ascending the stairs.“I probably should be armed,” Brian said to himself, he was on his way to his room when the door was knocked aggressively nonstop.“Hold on!” He shouted as he could no longer go into his room, he walked towards the door slowly “I would start by asking how well she knows Joyce and if they had been keeping up lately” he thought.“No, that would be too direct leaving room for suspicion” he concluded.He got to the door and placed his hand gently on it, “Who is it?” He asked placing his ears on the door.“From the
“If we’re chanced,” Arianna said.Brian was quiet until they both got to the living room, “Do you think we should get a replacement for Claw before I move out?” he asked.“No” Arianna responded slowly staring at the television.“I understand you have your fears but the replacement would be a trusted one,” Brian said.“No, thanks” Arianna stated.“Care for popcorn?” She asked as she stood up.“No I’m fine” Brian responded.Arianna left for the kitchen and came out not long after with a bowl of popcorn, she sat close to the television and started to munch as she stared at the television with so much interest.Brian also was staring at the television but not with all his attention, he couldn’t stop thinking of Jenna and where in the mansion she could be, he picked up his phone from his pocket after a while and sent her a text saying “I’m still waiting for Jenna” that made it the eleventh message he would send to Jenna within the space of two hours without getting any response.“I’m sorry
