"On two occasions. At school. The first one was my best friend. I thought I loved him, because he was so close to me. He had a girlfriend at that time, so I was jealous. Finally, one day, when we were studying in our lecture hall, I summoned up the courage and told him I loved him. He said he loved me too. And that was how we started having sex. The day he told me to go, he was like, I forced myself on him. And he loved me, just as a friend. But he loved his girlfriend very much."

"Bull crap. When he was getting under your skirt, why didn't he tell you that? He's a moron." I wrinkled my nose in disappointment.

And Kate chuckled, before releasing a big puff of breath. It seemed she still hurt a little when she thought about the past. "The second one, was in his final year. We met at a friend's party, and because acquainted with each

I didn't know how it felt like anymore.Two hours later, I stared back at the mirror infront of me to see if it was me or someone else. They had wiped all the pimples and dark spots on my face, making the skin on my face lighter. And the artificial hair I had on my head was quite bigger than my body, it was long, curly and full. And looked expensive. I stared at the price tag on the empty pack and gasped. It was thrice my monthly income.I quickly turned to Kate,she flashed me a sheepish grin when she saw the look on my face. "It's a good quality that's why it costs that much. You look beautiful by the way." She was sipping an orange juice and eating french fries. She winked at me and I smiled my gratitude towards her.

Kate asked me.I wanted to speak up but felt the words choked up in my throat.Standing before me, was Mia dressed in a cream coloured gown which was moulded to her body, revealing her slim but shapely curves.

    Charles"Alex Friedrich Esquire, caused a whole lot of damages during teenage hood. He was the social role of trouble; Vandalizing malls to the fullest extent, in the dead of the night. Painting cops car, getting into fights. He hated his father." It was Max, with eyes and fingers in front of the system, on the wooden desk that was filled with gazillions of paperworks. There was a cold coffee at the side of the system, that he drank on several occasions, with a sour facial expression.It was a Tuesday afternoon, at the station. Max and me were having a discussion, when I brought up Alex. He insisted on knowing why, and right at that moment, the idea of searching Max on our Criminal records, popped into my head.So I barked an order to Max to check for Alex because it was important.

Asked a lady, whose eyes had been on me, since I and Ruby made our way into the grocery store.I nodded, while Ruby who was grabbing some candies, threw them into the cart, and stopped just to place her hands on her hips, as she stared at the woman in a carefully tentative manner."You look like her elder brother, and not her Dad." It looked like the lady wasn't going to drop it.Shoving my hands into my pants pocket, I shot her a tiny smile. "Yeah, I get that alot.""Uh, Paapa?" Ruby called out to me.

    CharlesThankfully there was a back door which I used in getting into the grocery store. I noiselessly tiptoed my way in, and stood at the side of where two book shelves were facing eachother. I knew it was a darn risky thing for me to do, because I was unarmed. But Lolita and her baby needed protecting. They were innocent.I took a hard dry gulp, calculating the next move I would make. Because these men were with guns. One bullet to my brain, and I was gone for good. I would loose every freaking I ever had, including my daughter and mother.I closed my eyes in dismay. This was a way too dangerous something to do, because it was just an unarmed me with more than twelve armed men. And if I didn't act smart, they were going to win.What the fuck was I even thinking?

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.

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 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
