"I'm here to see Miss Bolu Afolabi, she checked into one of your rooms. Er...room 307 I assume." I informed the receptionist, with my hand on the counter.

After I had left Mia's room and headed out of my house, I had drove one of my SUV cars to the Hotel where Bolu was. And currently, I was inside, and needed permission before I could go up to Bolu's room.

"Do hold on for a minute, while I speak with her on the phone." The blonde hair, green eyed receptionist had said, giving me a look before she carried the landline to call room 307 occupant.

But there was no response. She threw me another look, then pressed the button to call again, until her eyes finally lit up, which read that the call had been picked by Bolu.

"Hello ma'am. There's someone here to see you, his name

    Alex"I know it's because of her." Bolu growled. "I don't even know what you see in her. I have everything she doesn't have. Urgh! I hate her so much!" Bolu outcried. "What exactly did she do to you? What did she do for you to care for her this much? You have known me before her, I came first into your life." She choked out these words, with her hand fisted against her chest, like she was being stabbed there.And I face palmed. " She's the one I love, Bolu. And I want to be with her. I'm so sorry. That's why I even came here to apologise to you, so you could forgive me all the pains I've cause." I implored. "I'm really sorry fucking sorry, Bolu. So sorry that I couldn't reciprocate the feelings that you have for me. That I couldn't love you. I'm sorry for maltreating me. And all I ask is for your forgiveness.""I will never fo

    AlexWhen I went home, I went straight to Mia's room to check up on her. She was asleep, looking as peaceful as a newly birthed kitten, with her hands at her side as she slept.I felt at sudden peace, while watching her skinny sleeping frame. It was just like a breath of fresh air. I didn't feel angry on frustrated anymore. It was like she was my saving grace.With my hand on the door knob, I stared at her for a while, admiring her soft and beautiful features. Then I close the door shut and headed straight to my room.While walking to my room, thoughts of Bolu were starting to come right up in my mind, but I shoved them away by thinking about Mia. I choose to think about Mia instead.On getting to my room, I changed into my pajamas pants, and white shirt.

    AlexA knock on my door woke me up the following morning. It felt like I slept for just thirty minutes, because I could recall when I finally drifted to sleep in the early hours of this morning.I rubbed my eyes with the back of my palm, stared at the time, and then saw that it was just 7:15AM. It was still to early for the servants to knock on my door, to come clean up my room. And this left me wondering if something had gone wrong.The knock came in again, and I yawned a little before permitting the door to be opened.I could hear a low feminine sigh, and then my door being pushed open on a gradual process.In came Mia. She was still in her pajamas, a white pajamas designed with tiny black polka dots. Her hair was disarrayed from sleep.Her fair skin glowed from the mor

    MiaI had a terrible dream about Alex again. This time he was shot dead by Tunde Ibrahim, here in Houston, Galveston. The dream felt too real that when I woke up, I was sweating profusely and had tears on my cheeks. I had been crying while having the dream. It was such an horrible dream. A fucking one at that.After washing my face, I decided to head straight to Alex's room to go see him. I was feeling so sick on the inside, that I felt if could see his face, see that he was fine, I would feel better.I knocked on his door. There wasn't any response at first. It looked like he was still asleep. I waited for sometime, then knocked on his door again. Wondering if he was really inside. Because he had mentioned last night that he was off to somewhere. What if he hadn't returned in the night? Was he okay? Where was he?

    MiaOh my God, I would do anything to taste his food again. He was even a better cook than his chefs. His food tasted more delicious. They couldn't even compare with him. It was now that I realized I had missed the taste of his food. Ever since his pancakes I had on that day he first kissed me, I hadn't had any of his food in my stomach."You can return late in the afternoon. I'm going to make use of the kitchen now." He ordered the kitchen staffa that were newly arriving.And they hurriedly moved out.I was glad he wanted to make breakfast for me."So, you want to fix me breakfast Jinsu?" I asked him, although I knew that was what he wanted to do. I could feel a smile on my lips.He didn't reply to my question, but picked up a strawberry

    Mia"I bought you a dress." Was what Alex had announced, after he had barged into my room that afternoon. Looking as good as the devil. Clad in his usual all black. Black long sleeve shirt, black ripped jeans, black boots. And looked so tall and big in all the right places. He had a large lean body. It seemed that, whenever I clasped my eyes on him, he looked more better than before. Or maybe it was because I was developing feelings for him, that was why I could see him that way.He was holding a white paper bag, and had a flower on his other hand. Looking the absolute opposite of the man I had met two months ago."A dress, why?" I inquired, getting up from bed and advancing towards him. Why did he buy me a dress? What for exactly?I already had my wardrobe filled with the numerous clothes Kate had bought for me. I wouldn't be nee

    AlexI watched her closely, then saw how her mood had changed from she telling me about the stuff that had happened, at Stanford University, California.That guy, Nate or whatever the fuck his name was. He was an oaf. To have wanted to fuck such innocence. She looked really younger than her age now. I wondered how she looked at that time. Most guys were predators. But Mia was so smart. So brave. And one hell of a lucky woman. I felt it was Good who made her go pee, so she could go eavesdrop to the conversation of those sick fuckers. She really was lucky. But that had changed her view over men. Made her not to go into a relationship with any guy.It was so fucked up, but I was glad nothing happened to her. And right now, she needed all the pampering and love in the world. Something I was willing to give to her. But first, I needed to ensu

    Alex"It's about time you get dressed, let's go for the date." I said, half an hour later, when we had disengaged ourselves from the hug. But she was still straddling me. Earlier, she had wanted to move away, but I held her back down, so she couldn't move away.She nodded to what I had said, with a tiny smile playing on her lips. It looked like she had alot going through her mind. Like she wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it."It feels so surreal that you bought a dress for me. And then, you want to take me out. I had never for once in my life, imagined this moment." She blurted out, then blushed a little like a child that had a crush on someone she wasn't supposed to. Something which I founded absolutely adorable. She was so cute this way."That's because you've proved

At this, I knew it was her grandmother and her cousin brother.My brain couldn't properly align that she was gone.I was still hugging her body to myself, as I wept, until I heard "Bolu."Instantly I snapped my head back, and saw one of the cops rushing to the lady who was on the floor. It was the same lady who had taken the gunshot for Mia.I stared at the lady closely, until I saw that it was Bolu.Taking my mask off, I left Mia in the arms of her grandmother, as I quickly walked up to where she was laying on the floor, in the pool of her own blood.The cop and a little girl was crying so hard, as they held her.And I squated and took one good look at her.

It was other people who where tied with ropes, and had rags in their mouths.Tunde Ibrahim who had sustained a bullet on his leg, was on the floor. And he had a gun pointed at a female who was decorated in bruises, and had her clothes coated in blood.I looked closely, and saw that it was Mia.My heart moved to my throat at this, and I felt weak right at that instant.Mia looked half as dead, and I could tell that I stopped breathing.Just as Tunde Ibrahim pulled the trigger, I saw a lady from nowhere diving in to shield Mia away from the bullet.And when the bullet got through her neck, and she slumped heavily on the floor.This happened within the space of two seconds, and I shot Tunde Ibrahim on both hands.

    AlexThe two cops accompanied me down to the basement, after adding more bullets to their guns.I could recall how Kate had told me, one of them; the tall fair one to be precise. Had saved them, when Tunde Ibrahim had sent a bomb.I knew if I hadn't shot the man who intended shooting him, he would have been as dead. Because he was out of bullets at that time.Him and his colleague had stared at me wide eyed, after I had shot and killed the other Tunde Ibrahim's man, who had wanted to kill the colleague.On getting to the basement, I kicked the door opened with my feet, and gunshots where behind fired at me. But for the fact that I was clad in a bullet proof all through, made no bullet to penetrate into my body.Taking steps backwards, I shot at these men, with the cops at my behind, assisting me.The more we moved backwards, the more they

    CharlesMax and I exchanged gunshots with some of Tunde Ibrahim's men. It was really easy, because I was quite scared I was going to be shot dead. Even Max had fear evident in his face. We had our backs against eachother as we hid and shot at these men.It was one of the most difficult situation I had ever been thrown in, because we were surrounded by these men who where shooting at us from different angles. But God was still guiding us.The fact that Tunde Ibrahim had my mom and daughter, was worth panicking. I had no idea what he had done to them. If they were still alive or not.Max and I had killed most of Tunde Ibrahim's men, and it looked like two where still remaining, and hiding at some corner so they could shoot us.Just then, one of Tunde Ibrahim's men jumped out from his hidden place and aimed his gun at me.I tried to shoot at him, but then I r

    BoluIt looked like something was on going outside, that most of Tunde Ibrahim's men started running out.Gunshots and screams could be heard.And on seeing how Tunde Ibrahim and the remaining of his men were rendering hefty blows and kicks on Mia, was making me sick.There was a pool of blood on the floor, and Mia's face looked swollenly covered in blood.Guilt stung me deeply, that the pace of my breathing became fast and uneasy. Because it was partially because of me that she was in this condition.I had been blinded by hate and jealousy, to see that Mia was innocent. I knew Alex, he wouldn't fall for a despicable person. He had fallen in love with her for his own reasons.Something I was too angry and jealous to notice.And now, she was thrown into this situation because of me.Like a beast, Tunde Ibra

    CharlesThroughout the drive to Tunde Ibrahim's house, Max and I were panicking, to the extent that Max even wet his pants.I was trying so hard to keep my emotions in check, and it really wasn't easy.Tunde Ibrahim had my daughter and my mom, and I didn't even know if they were dead or alive. But I chose to believe that they were alive.Meanwhile, Max had lost all hopes.He broke into tears like a baby, and despite that I was in an anxious state, I still managed to talk to him.

    AlexOn getting in front of Tunde Ibrahim's house, I made sure I took hold of my bulletproof mask. My whole body was clad in bulletproof, before I wore my clothes.I wore a face cap, so it would be hard to recognize me.Then I banged loudly on the gate, and when I heard a masculine voice demanding who I was, I told him I was the pizza delivery guy.The peephole of the gate was flung opened, and a white milky eye stared at me, and the pizza I was holding in a suspicious manner.Before closing the peephole back. Then my ears kicked in the dangling sounds of heavy keys, which read that the gate was being unlocked.Blowing out a big puff off breath, then waited.The gate was finally jerked opened, and I stepped in.Right there an then, I saw an heavy raccoon of a man, with other shirtless guys who had bullets as necklace, and guns in thei
