It all started as a bet. Danielle and Janet are best friends for life. One was very rich and the latter is from a low income family. How did they meet and become friends? Eight years ago. There was a terrible storm in the area called The Main. The main is neither a slum nor a highbrow area, but the area is not particularly well developed, the land and rent was affordable and most low income earners settled there. Danielle was driving, drunk! Very drunk. She was returning from her high school (Secondary School) secret graduation party organized by the rich spoilt son of Senator Dinomel on a beach at a secluded private resort owned by his dad. Even though her friends warned her that it was too late and she was too drunk, she should consider staying the night or waiting for the bus organized for some of the other students to drop her off at home, she wouldn’t listen to anyone, she insist on driving home herself. It was around 11pm and the road was in a terrible state, coupled with
Danielle was in a daze, looking at the boss with lust and twinkle in her eyes. She was so lost in her lustful thoughts that the boss had to snap his fingers to catch her attention, she jerked back to reality. He looked at her weird behavior with a tiny frown, handed the file back to her and said – “Go and give it to the accountant and make sure you follow it up, I don’t want any delay in processing the order”. She answered – “Yes sir, right away, do you need anything else?” He looked at her sternly. And she quickly left his office. She closed the door and whispered- “oh my God! He is so hot!” She walked back to her work station with a big smile thinking of only one thing, how she will easily win the bet. Janet on the other hand was at her place of work worried about the pile of files on her desk and if she will be able to meet the deadline given by the clients. She doesn’t have much time to think of anything else, and the bet, she has totally forgotten about it. The Bet Danielle an
Quiddox Club At the club, the girls along with some other friends were drinking, dancing and having fun, when DJ Dodoskky paused the loud music and announced – “Happy people, hope you are having fun” Club goers chorused – “Yeessss” The DJ went on – “We have a beautiful damsel, amongst us tonight, but note guys, she is not in distress and today happens to be her birthday, the next song is dedicated to her”. He paused for effect, played a whoop whoop sort of sound and said "Happy birthday Danielle, you know you are one of my favorite humans, enjoy the song" Danielle’s favorite song came on, and she screamed “Yass!” She started jumping up and down. She was gyrating to the song as she screamed – “You are the best Dodoskky” . They were still dancing when some guys walked into the club. Danielle saw her boss amongst them and stopped dancing. She called the attention of Bibiana and Tokunbo and pointed towards her boss while talking to them. Jayden was complaining to his friends that h
The weekend was a breeze. Danielle was inside her big closet dressing up, wondering if she should just stay home and avoid the obvious or go to work. But she can’t just resist seeing the boss. She applied a bright red lipstick, smacked her lips and examined her appearance in the mirror with some slight poses. She smiled and said to herself – "Oh well, even if he does fire me, I can still work on my bet, it will be so easy". She looked at herself in the mirror again and shook her head – “Nah” and decided to change into something a little bit more sexier. She chose a Olive colored tight hugging dress that stopped mid thigh and put on a Burgundy blazer to make it look and scream sexy professional. She Picked up her purse and car keys and left her room. Downstairs she asked the maid where her parents were, the maid replied – “Small madam good morning, dem don commot, dem talk say make I tell you say, if your oga pursue you, make u go for intafew for this card” she handed her a compliment
Janet kept her word and took the girls out as a compensation for missing the birthday night out at Quiddox. But she warned them not to order anything too expensive as she can’t afford to lose her whole salary, since they all refused to go to the place she chose and would rather come to a high end location. “Ohhh Bernard Resort, I have missed you. It’s been so long we were here” exclaimed Tokunbo. Danielle doesn't like any serene ambience and can't help but complain “ This place is always boring, I don’t miss it a bit, no guys, no party, the bar and the view is the only nice thing they have got going on for them here, you know how I hate quiet and serene environments” Bibiana dismissed her complaints “It’s not every time we want gra gra, jaga jaga, sometimes peace and quiet, nice conversation and good cocktails” Danielle still not convinced said “Whatever” Janet looked at her friends bickering and sighed “I am already pitying my ATM card…Lord! Take the wheels” They were all stil
Janet lay on her bed smiling and looking at the ceiling but not actually focusing on anything. When she came back home she said hi to everyone, when she checked in on Damon and she noticed that he seemed restless, she felt he may be in pain. But her mom told her not to fret, "He is just uncomfortable having to lay on the same position all the time, he will be fine". Janet wasn't convinced, she was still worried and tried to convince her mom that perhaps they should go back to the hospital. Her mom won't have any of it so she had no choice but to come to her room to rest after having small talks with her parents. But now that she remembered Jayden, she couldn't stop smiling. Thinking of the way he smiled at her while squinting his sexy eyes as if she was a silly little thing. Her smile deepened and she felt silly, she haven't done anything like that before and she felt like she has become quiet as mischievous as Danielle for even daring to walk up to a total stranger, a hot one at th
Jayden checked the time and was surprised. "Wow! I didn't know I could talk this much on the phone, my battery is almost empty" He felt kind of happy, contented as if he has just won a lottery and he doesn't even know why. He just knew he enjoyed talking to Janet a lot. Although he can't figure out what the bet entails, he guessed that any girl or group of girls that throw themselves at him in the next few days will probably be her friends. He was thinking of ways to make the bet even more interesting for them, but he could not stop himself from yawning. He was feeling tired from his friends shenanigans at the resort. He wanted to watch the highlights of the news but the feeling of tiredness prevailed and thus he decided to retire to his room. He stood up from the sofa in his living room, picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. He is so used to using one of his two phones to control most of his electrical appliances, but his phone is red, the battery is almost down. He
Danielle was sleeping in. When she got back home late the night before, she barely made it to her room before she slept off. Danielle went to the club with her friend Mike as soon as she got home from Bernard resort. When the limo dropped her off at home the day before, she stepped in and was about so go check out the latest movies on Netflux when her friend Mike called her and told her he was bored. Mike asked if she could come out to blow off some steam at a new night club that just launched last week. Danielle agreed quickly as she also prefer to dance, have fun and drink than to stay home watching TV. So she quickly took the small elevator to her floor. Danielle went straight to her room, took a quick shower, walked into her closet and changed into a sexy shimmery sequin dress. She put on light makeup as fast as she could, pulled her hair into a quick messy Ponytail and ran out. On her way out, her mom saw her leaving in a hurry. She called out to her but she didn’t seem to he
Three months later "Jay Jay, you have always been beautiful, but now you are simply stunning. Jayden won't be able to take his eyes off of you today" Janet smiled as she looks at her reflection in the large mirror "You think?" "Of course and Jay Jay your wedding dress is to die for. Jayden is so attentive. Your baby bump is not showing at all. Sigh. You know what I did last night?" Bibiana smiled as she finally managed to push Douglas out of the doorway of the presidential suite and close the door. "What did you do?" Janet raised her brow. "I held a ring and told David to hold it the same way. He did and I slipped my finger inside. I pretended to be surprised and started shouting I do I do I do." Janet and Bibiana couldn't stop laughing. "Toks, David is smitten, if not, with all of your antics. He would have japa from you by now" Bibiana smiled mischievously "I agree with Jay Jay. What did he say though?" "He said he is not ready for marriage" "Aww. It's okay. He will event
"Are you sure you don't know who it was that is the mastermind behind your kidnapping?"Janet smiled and nodded her head "Yes sir, I don't know the men. I saw them for the first time that day. And I don't know who asked them to kidnap me either""You do know Danielle Savage right?"Janet clutched her gown tightly but her facial expressions didn't change at all "Yes. She is my friend""Is she in anyway involved? Or do you suspect her?"Janet shook her head "No, she is my best friend. She didn't do anything"The Police Officer in charge of the investigation looked at Janet thoughtfully, he asked her the same question several times already and she kept saying the same thing. 'Mr Jayden said it was Senator Savage's daughter, but if she is not saying anything there is nothing he could do about it.' he sighed "Okay. I will file your statement. However if you remember anything later, you can come at anytime or call me, okay?" "Okay, thank you""You are welcome. You may leave"Jayden was on
"Remember, try to control your emotions. We will tell them everything some other time. It's okay to be sad when talking to them they will just think you are missing them. But they will suspect something is off if you cry. I can't put this off anymore so be ready"Janet nodded."It's ringing"Janet's mom picked up "Hello""Hello mom, I was able to finally drag your daughter away from her office. I didn't know she was such a workaholic"Mrs Desmond laughed "She is a workaholic. She always bring work home. Even during the weekends"Janet smiled and was about to tear up, Jayden shook his head."Her boss gave her all those days off like a good employer and now he made her do all the work in a day""It's okay, she can handle it. She also likes working""Here she is ma""Hello mom""Janet how are you?""I am fine, how is everyone doing?""We are all fine. What's wrong with you? Your voice sounds off"Janet sniffled "I am fine, I am a little tired and missing you all a lot""Awnnn, we miss yo
"Yes Dee. I told you about him right? You didn't believe me. First you went home with your dad and then you went to Ajah where you kept her. Is that not where you answered my call while lying to me that you were locked up at home. Then you left after you entered the building. You saw us at Jericho right? Then you ran away because you did not want us to know that you were not at home. You even went to my neighborhood before that time" Danielle was completely pale as she stare at Bibiana in shock. 'They knew all along?' Tokunbo was disgusted "With friends like you, why would anyone need enemies!" Danielle got angry when she heard what Tokunbo said and screamed "Yes I did it!" Janet already knew but she still trembled in Jayden's arms as she finally heard her admit it. In a shaky voice she pulled Danielle away from Tokunbo and asked "Why?" Danielle felt guilty initially but right now she was mad that everyone is throwing accusations at her. Regardless of whether she did it or not, sh
Janet looked at Danielle with a bit of disappointment in her eyes and continued. " That room was adequately stocked, If I wasn't alone I would have thought I was in Small Sister's house. You know what the funny thing was? Me thinking you were kidnapped along with me and was probably in another room similar to mine. That's the only explanation I could come up with at first. Because you called me and the ring tone woke me up, then I heard your voice at the door. I was so worried that they kidnapped you first and forced you to lure me to the door." Janet chuckled self derisively and continued "The phone was useless because there was no signal. I tried calling Jayden several times, but it was useless. But when I later watched the video..."Danielle can't stop thinking what video was it that she keeps talking about "What video Jay Jay? I didn't do anything"Janet didn't say anything and stood up to look for her phone, when she checked the bed and can't find it, she was contemplating askin
The doctor completed her examination and stepped out of the guestroom. She frowned her face and asked "Jayden have you called the police?""They are aware. They told me she can come and give her statement tomorrow when she is better" "Okay, because I noticed that she is suffering from either PTSD or shock, she is not responding to any of my questions. She is fine, but she has few bruises. No sign of rape or any extreme bruise caused by blunt force trauma. The bruises she got are probably from been carried roughly."Everyone sighed in relief. "But..."Everyone turned to the doctor anxiously. "Relax it's not a bad thing. Although I can't be affirmative, but I am almost sure that she is pregnant""Pregnant?" Bibiana almost screamed.Everyone was dumbfounded especially Jayden. 'Pregnant?' "Yes. I am not 100 percent sure. I have drawn her blood. We can only be sure after proper tests are carried out. I will try and also check for traces of the drug they used on her."The doctor handed J
"I don't think it's okay to move her around too much until the doctor gives her a full check up" Tokunbo nodded "Yes I agree with Bee, let's wait until she is awake. Bode called the doctor that will check for trauma right? Let him come, by then the cleaners we sent to her house would have finished cleaning. Then we can decide if she needs to go to the hospital or home." Jayden was still looking at Janet's face intently. "Alright" They all went back to the sitting room. Bibiana saw how relieved everyone was now that Janet has been found. "What do you guys want to eat?" "Noth..." "Nothing" "Anything" Bibiana looked at Deji, Bode, and David with amusement in her eyes. Deji and David looked at Bode and shook their heads. "Don't mind him, we just ate. We were at Nuban when Tokunbo called" "Deji, I didn't get to eat anything. I was on the phone throughout remember?" David sneered "Shameless!" "What? I just got my appetite back. Jayden didn't eat either." Bode looked aggrieved.
"Deji can I borrow your car?" Deji looked at Bibiana, then his precious Brabis, then Bibiana again. He shook his head and reluctantly gave her the key to the Brabis. Bibiana collected the key and turn to Tokunbo "Tokunbo let's go" Tokunbo that was still frightened after seeing two dead bodies was shaking like a leaf in David's arms. David held her and guided her to the passenger seat. He helped her fasten the seat belt and told them to drive carefully. Bode and the boys got into Jayden's car and also drove off. Tokunbo still trembling a bit looked at Bibiana and in a shaky voice said "Bee, I have not seen a dead body that close before and not that mangled. I am going to have nightmares for the next few days" Bibiana smiled bitterly "I am just thankful that none of them is a female" "Bee, are you also convinced that Danielle did it?" "I wasn't at first, but how do we explain this Toks? She came here and suddenly the building is on fire and now there are dead bodies. What sort
Bibiana doesn't know what to think at this point. She stared at her phone then at Jayden and somehow unconvincingly said "She didn't do it guys" Jayden snorted "You believed that?" "I don't know Jayden. But Dee will never harm Janet. Trust me." "She clearly was acting. Nothing about that was natural" Deji shakes his head. Bode sighed "Everyone in our circle knew that when lil princess Danielle wants something. Then she gets what she wants. You are one of her closest friends, you should know that much." "I know her so well and that's why I am finding it hard to believe that she will kidnap someone and Janet for that matter. Trust me Danielle genuinely loves Jay Jay." "If she loves Jay Jay she won't be trying to covet her boyfriend." Deji sneered. Bibiana frowned "She is obsessed with Jayden I agree, but to actually go this far? I don't know, a part of me does not trust anything she said just now but the other part of me can't believe that she will stoop to that level." Jayden wa
