Where the hell did she get that kinda experience from?. He climbed off the bed and into his shorts, sat back and proceeded to light a cigarette from the pack on his bedside stool.
Lu-Lu on the other hand, went through the motions of dressing as he puffed away; releasing the waste through his nose and mouth ‘That was pretty hot’. She thought.
She seemed to have everything as she combed and arranged her mass of red hair as well as her make-up. Her fingers always disappeared into her bag to pick up something new with which she attend to her face with. It her a good half hour to get ready. By then, Harry had already exhausted three cigarettes which their butts glowed faintly on the not-so-clean blue and red flowered linoleum floor.His appetite for smoking hadn’t diminished despite his vow to give it up. Checking his wristwatch;16:03 hours. Almost time for business to begin, he’d better dispose of Lu-Lu or whatever her name was ‘nd go ‘nd see what was pricking Carrie.
Full dressed, she sat back on the bed, lighting a joint and studied him through penetrating eyes. He seemed to be asking himself what had been the purpose of her` visit’. ‘Be calm, keep ‘im guessing’, the under boss had said. Now was the time to cut the crap and git down tae business.
‘Damn fine apartment ‘, she said sarcastically and blew a smoke ring in his face, their foreheads nearly touching. ‘How much it cost you`, she asked blowing yet another ring in his face. His features seemed to be tightening.
This dame was trying to piss him off but he ain’t allowin’ that to happen. If she ain’t got nothing’ but crap to say; then she better haul her ass outta there or he’ll help her do that.
‘Whassup’, he said in his all-too familiar voice for deals when he saw she wasn’t playin’ no games.
‘You interested in makin’ sum reeal fast dough?, coz once you’re in, you ain’t goin’ nowhere’’, he nodded thoughtfully in response.
‘Gimme the facts’
And he listened while she talked.

Ira had yet another day to face, the usual morning routine though affected by her secretarial job at Serene- though this branch in Kory city was called Legdon. She now had less sleep as she left her workplace at 17:00 hours straight to Raven for another round of work. Though Mr Rees had changed her routine for 18:00 hours to 24:00 hours. She had always ended up dead beat at 01:00 hours at home. ‘What a day!’, had become her favorite exclamation as she scurried back home each day.On this Sunday morning, she had decided she needed to replenish the stock in her fridge; it had gone low over the past few weeks as she fed heavily on it. She had fed heavily on it and had literally eaten it empty. Time for shopping. Picking up her purse and making sure she had enough mions; she left her apartment, nodding to a busy Mrs. Hennessey and flagged down a cab.The Q self-service store always held a fascination for Ira.

Six months had gone by, months of fruitless searching for Raina’s murderers. A hundred and eighty-three wasted days. Lassair had finally decided to shut the lid on the case since a pin he could not find. Raina was now six months old in the soil and the family-two people actually- grieved her but that couldn’t bring her back. Nan cy had remarked that the search for her killer was a rather futile one and persuaded Matt to finally give up on it. She was buried in the family’s newly erected mausoleum in a gold coffin. studded with paragon diamonds which to Nancy was rather too extravagant. The family had fulfilled all rites but the inevitable gloom and question was still hanging over them; WHO DID THIS TO RAINA???? Matt, finally won over by Nancy, had called off the investigations into her death and suffered in silence. The silence that now hung around the house was a palpable one which he reasoned; was only fit for the dead. Worst of all, Nancy h

He sat back in the jacuzzi, taking another sip from the glass of white wine he had. The day was moving fine and at the leisurely pace, he loved. Taking a few days off from work was the best tonic for his itch for a change of scene. Sometimes, you gotta dump the job on the underdogs and have yourself some fun. He wasn’t ready to swot blind while there was much fun to be had outside work. Occasionally-not seldom-, he thought of Ira;but he had things way more important than her for example, the cat lying and sunning herself on a mat by the poolside, sipping the same wine as he. Ira was too ninny-minded for him, she seemed to take them as a thing that would last for a long time leaving him laughing at her antics. As sure as hell, she was dreaming of wedding bells but he wasn’t the kind of guy to be trapped by unsophisticated, classless ladies like she w

On the other side of the city in an average apartment, a twenty-six year old brunette stood worried in her apartment. Her right hand tapping nervously on the desk. She hadn’t seen or heard from Matt in about three weeks and was getting terribly worried about him. She now had a horde of unanswered calls and texts to him. Finally, with a resigned shrug. She left the room for the kitchen. She wasn’t surprised, he was reverting to his usual style. Matt the Flash was fading; and real fast. She couldn’t help it, could she? Entering the kitchen, she warmed the leftover chicken sandwich she found and fed her stomach. No way in hell was she going to bother herself over his misdemeanours. She ate it in her sitting-room on a cushion, silently seething but controlling it; Afterall, she knew what she had signed up for. She turned her mind to more impor

Ira sat demurely and tried listening to and digesting what Doc Fleming had to say. He gave her an overview of her mother’s state of health. Brianna had been fighting a losing battle with Leukaemia for seven and made no mention of it to Ira. All this was so terrifying, thought Ira. She sat staring hard at him without seeming to register the import of his words. Brianna’s condition had deteriorated over the past few years.

Brianna looked like something from a ghost movie[no offence]. Her once glorious olive skin was now pale and as white as sheet. Her glorious dark locks now thinned so much, the remnants could fit on the head of a medium-sized doll. Her eyes –ever so quick and bright- now looked tired and had a great too many worry lines for her age.Her face was half-covered by an oxygen mask. She didn’t know much about hospital machines, having never been admitted into one before but she could at least guess the one with the zig-zag lines was the EKG. All this was taken in in one glance. She gingerly stepped into the room as if the floor was lined by vicious stinging scorpions and stood next to Brianna’s bed staring at her; trying so hard to picture her without the mess of wires linking her to machines that Ira felt, no longer supported but kept her alive. She didn’t even notice the doctor’s exit.

Craig impatiently lit another cigarette as he stood, leaning on his car beside some rat-infested alley in Whelp. The stench coming from the trashcans behind was much worse than when he worked the toilets way back in high school. Checking his time-piece, 14:13 hours. He’d been standing there for what…..an hour at the least and during that time had reduced his pack of Camels to a deplorable state. So much for agreements, where in hell was the damn kid he was supposed to meet. An unkempt-looking dark kid in scuffed boots with dreadlocks, tattered jeans and a too-large overcoat bumped into him smelling like a beer salon. ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa, whossamatter with you?’, he said and checked his pockets; one could never be too sure in Whelp.
