“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
“Okay,” Lyn replied.Arianna alighted from the car, crossed to the right side of the road where Brian was, and stayed on his tail, she was careful enough not to catch Brian’s attention.They had been walking for a few minutes and Arianna was starting to get tired “Is this the part where I say I warned you?” Primal said to Arianna.“And is this the part where I remind you to mind your business?” Arianna snapped inwardly at Primal.“But where exactly is he heading, we’ve been walking for minutes now,” Arianna said aloud in a low tone.Brian stood still the moment Arianna stopped walking.“What?”“He heard me talk?” Arianna asked Primal.“How am I supposed to know?” Primal asked back.Brian turned back slowly, and Arianna instantly turned back and walked as fast as she could, Brian remained on the spot for a few more minutes before he continued with his journey.“Has he turned back? Arianna asked Primal curiously.“Seems I need to remind you I don’t have supernatural powers, how do you e
Arianna stood still on the spot startled with her eyes closed as she held her breath, she was waiting for Jenna to look back and find her standing right just at her back.After expecting Jenna to say something for a few seconds, she heard nothing from her.“Maybe she didn’t see you,” Primal said.“She just mentioned my name!” “She must have heard me, and it’s all because I mentioned my name loudly to that thing, this is his fault,” Arianna said to Primal inwardly holding her fists tightly.“I didn’t expect you would mention your government name” Primal stated.“It was a reflex action, I didn’t think twice before mentioning my name,” Arianna said.“It’s fine, I guess you were under tension” “What do we do now?” Primal asked.“I have no idea, what would I tell Brian as to the reason I’m standing behind him with my eyes closed” Arianna replied.“Act surprised!”“Act as tho you are here to relieve stress and tell him didn’t think you would find him in a brothel” Primal stated.“What?!”
Arianna struggled to open her eyes as her head ached badly, she eventually did slowly and was surprised to find herself in a hospital bed.She raised her eyebrows widely and caught a glimpse of Brianna who was seated on the right side of the bed “Mum?” Arianna said slowly in an extremely low tone.“Ari!” Brianna screamed getting up from where she sat.“Thank goodness you’ve regained consciousness!”“I was so scared, I thought I had lost you,” Brianna said looking into Arianna’s eyeballs.“Aren’t you supposed to be resting?” “And what am I doing here?” Arianna asked slowly.“I would go back to resting when you get discharged from here”“And secondly I do not have a clear idea of why you’re here Brian hasn’t had the time to give me a proper explanation, but he mentioned something about Jenna having a hand in it,” Brianna said.“I think I now remember what happened” Arianna mumbled after a few seconds with her face squeezed.“Where’s Brian?” Arianna asked.“He stepped out to get medicat
