I sprawled on my bed after returning from the hospital. My phone rang. I sighed before stretching my arms to reach it. Without bothering to look at the caller, I picked it.
"Oh my, you did pick up." She said as I groaned. Why did I pick it up?
"Should I go off?" I retorted as I can imagine her shaking her head.
"No, son. I really wanted to hear your voice. It's been days since you have left. I haven't heard from you enough. I was really worried..." I cut her off.
"Cut to the chase mom, would you?" I snapped. I really can't keep playing nice.
"Oh... Okay. Have you been eating well? Also, how have you been finding work?" She spoke softly as I sighed. I really should try being nice.
"Mom, I have been eating. Also, work has been cool. Are you satisfied?" I said slowly trying not to shout.
"Alright then. But, I still think being the Poli

Abigail stated plainly as Eric laughed before nodding."That's the only way. Tonight is the best time to strike and you would be the inner strike we have. I am giving him the drugs today. So, find a way to leak that out. I would be there to communicate too. Don't worry." He stated softly as she nodded."Alright, let's get going. Are you done packing the goods?" She said as he nodded."Johnny already helped with that one. He would leave when we see that this is a total progress." He added as I dialed David's number."What's up with the girl? Are things going as we planned?" I asked as he laughed."We are back at the hotel. I would explain when we get in." He said as I nodded waiting for him."David is c

Eighteen -- Ewawummi"I found her address." Ini rushed in as I jerked up. I barely ate anything since I watched that video. It pained me to see a lot of people mourning over a boss like that. How dare he harassed her? How dare he hit her?"Boss, let's get going." He broke my stream of thoughts as I picked up my phone following him. He drove the car because he knew how narrow minded I am now. I can't guarantee that we won't have an accident."Boss, you need to calm down. You won't get any information with this attitude. You know that boss." He emphasized as I nodded."I am calming down already. Once we get to her place, I would have been okay." I said as he nodded. It took us a while to reach her out. It was small and cosy. She must be the only one living here.We knocked on the door for a while before it opened. A man came out... Oh, she is the one! Wait, she is dressed as a male at home? I passed I

Nineteen -- Eric"I am sure you have seen my maid." I asked Johnson over the phone has he laughed."Yeah, sure. She is such a pretty looking thing. It's nice to have such eye treatment in your house daily." He smirked as I rolled my eyes. How dare he called Abigail a thing?"Anyways, I would be sending the goods very soon. The Maid told me that you would be needing six box of apples to make the fruit juices. I plan to make it seven. The last one would be the goods thoroughly and neatly parked in the packet. A few apples would be on top. You just have to identify it that's all." I said as I could sense him nodding."That's not bad. But, how do I recognize it? What if someone else picks it up. It's game over!" He stated as I smiled."The tape used would be brown while the others are transparent. Besides, I would tape your name to it. Just state that your doctor said you needed more apples that's why you bought a

Also, I met the police on my way out. Did they already come too arrest him?" I asked as they laughed."No not him. He would be arrested but not now. They came to pick his son for drugs. Nice job, Abigail." I said as she smiled."It was fun though I had to fall down." She whined."Really? Did you get hurt?" David asked as Eric cleared his throat. My response was a laugh."No, I'm okay." She said softly as I smirked."How about you disconnect the call and proceed to have a private discussion?" I stated slowly as David huffed."It isn't like that." Abigail whined."Anyway, what's the last step we need to have take. The man's ruined already." Abigail add

Twenty One -- Kunle"What do you mean dead?" My boss shouted as all the other junior officers stood straight."Yes sir. We were almost at the door step when we had the gunshot. By the time we got there, he was already dead. We could only hear groans from the rest room and we found the lawyer." One of them stated as boss nodded."Any statement from the lawyer?" He questioned."He only testified to seeing a man in all black. He was the one who knocked him out. He also thinks that he might be responsible for his death." He replied as boss nodded again."Then, is he also the one that uploaded all his crimes? Why would he do that?" Boss queried himself as he dismissed everyone except me."What do you think?" He asked as my eyes widened in shock. I smiled in return as I stood properly. I have wanted to say something since."It's obvious that you have something to say. So,

Twenty Two -- Iseoluwa"Wait, what?" I uttered as my mind played David's words. He can't be here! We seriously needed to travel. How would we do it?"The police are aware about us, we have to leave for a while." Eric said."But, Mr. Durotola is here and he leaves in three weeks. Once he travels out, we might not be able to get him again. He is staying for a few years." David added as I sighed."So, we need to get him in three weeks. We don't have a choice." Abigail sighed as I shrugged."Exactly, we can't travel. We need to catch the man. David, how about Janet and her Father?" I asked as he smiled."They must have arrived at the house over there. It was smart of you to think of travelling them out. The police wouldn't be able to trace them." He said as I nodded."So, we need to take care of Johnson. He must have given the officers Eric's name." I thought for

Twenty Three -- Ewawummi"Boss, can you see it all went well? Big boss agreed." Ini said as I nodded. I actually thought it was going to be difficult but immediately boss was shown the video, his guard and pride went down. He also couldn't believe what he was seeing. We told him about the woman's statement and what we intended to do. He thought for a while before nodding to our request. We were fast enough to meet boss as he hasn't communicated with other seniors. It was very easy to silence and the rest of the officers have been told to keep quiet."Did you listen to the news recently?" I asked Ini as he nodded."Yeah, Mr. Badejo was killed by some people who revealed his crimes. Serves him right!" Ini muttered as I turned to him."Serves him right? How could you say that?" I asked as he shrugged."Did you hear how he framed a man for his crimes? That man served seven good years and he p

Twenty Four -- IseoluwaI quietly locked the door before stumbling on the bed. It had been really hard to bottle all the emotions inside me. I had to be strong for the team but my inside had been burning. I sighed rolling my side so that I was facing up.Memories from the past kept flooding in no matter how hard I tried to block it. I just couldn't stop seeing them. Also, the weight of being framed for killing someone isn't part of my plan. I never knew he was going to die. Who was responsible for his death? Perhaps, his team members or the other two that were involved in the case?Urggh! I groaned as I strolled to my book shelf. My very help is what I needed badly now. I carefully scanned through the books before settling for a book on delusional disorder. I might find delusions an escape of my past memories. I rolled over, dwelling on the painful path of the protagonist in the novel. He was an orphan like me. Wow, we were re

I was supposed to be mad at him but here am I in his arms."Put me down. I can walk." I said as he opened the window. I peeped outside. The fire fighters were already down with their water tank."Hold me tight, we are going to jump." He said as I gasped. What?"We are on the first floor." I complained as he adjusted me."Close your eyes." He said as he passed through the already burning window. I could hear screams from people but I couldn't risk opening my eyes. We ended up hitting the floor with me falling upon him. I opened my eyes slowly and gasped on seeing Ise's condition. His head was bleeding badly. Why didn't I notice that it was this worse. He was already feeling dizzy."Are you okay?" His voice came out barely as a whisp

I said as he sighed in relief. "How did you get it? I never knew it existed." I said as he turned with a smile. His lips was bleeding already."When we arrived from Canada, I dialed your doctor's number. He had the recording for a long time. I caught him with it and he couldn't deny. He was just so afraid. I called him then and promised to do a clean job without his name being mentioned. After much persuasion, he sent it to me this morning. I planned to tell you when I arrived but, I got kidnapped." He said as I wished I was free to hug and thank him."Thank you Dave, I'm really glad you gave me the opportunity to hear mom's voice and dad's too. I will make sure you get out of here safe."

Oh God, please keep him save.My phone suddenly rang and I ran to it hoping it was Ise. "Ini? Hello." I replied disappointed."Boss, are you okay? You don't sound well?" He replied as I sighed."I am really not okay, Ini. I am so worried right now. I don't know what to do." I said honestly."Why? The case is giving you problem? Or perhaps? Ise?" There was humor laced with his last word. Ini was like family to me so I told him a lot of things."The latter. Something is wrong somewhere and I don't seem to understand. It's like I might not get to see him again. I feel so uneasy." I explained as he hummed in response."If he isn't telling you, you shouldn't dig too deep and

That witch and her gang. He is in trouble. What should we do?" He cried out as I suddenly pressed the brake making us jolt forward."Damn! Hold on, I'm coming." I hung up. "I need to get somewhere. I'll get a cab for you." I said as I got down. She did the same and walked over to me."What's wrong? Is it very important?" She asked purely worried as I tried to keep cool."Ewa, you will go home and relax. Okay? Everything's fine." I replied as she shook her head in tears."Why are you

I replied as I was digging deep into his family affairs online."What do we do? Should we park? You said he knows about us. What if he reports us? Things have gone out of hands! It's gonna be bad if Ewa finds out too." Eric muttered pacing around."Let's plan to leave. That's our priority. Ewa finding out is nothing compared to your safety." I replied as Abigail sighed."Ise, it is obvious that you like her. Come on, you do love her. Don't fight it." She whispered as I laughed in despair."What? Love? Hey, I planned to use her from the very start. That's what I'm still doing. It's totally heartless to call it love." I answered her. Eric passed a look to David as they left us alone.

She was getting me angry but I needed to keep cool if I wanted to get any useful information."Where are you right now? I will come to you." I said as she sighed."With the officers? Hey, I am not that foolish." She replied as I lost it."Which son would want his mother arrested? Can you just tell me where you are and let me get you? You are the next, don't you know that?" I shouted as there was silence at the other end."Are you still there?" I said slowly."You are my son after all. I am at your hotel. I

I might do something if he left. His presence alone soothed my soul."Dad, dad. What have I done?" I cried as I leant on his grave. "I was dedicating all my life to the jerk that killed you. For a long time, I had always been praying for him. I had no idea." I cried harder as I felt a hand on my shoulder."Don't blame yourself. You had no idea." He whispered as I hit my chest so hard."You don't understand. It's better that I had no idea. You don't know what I'm passing through. Why was the case revealed? Who is that damned criminal?" I shouted as he pulled me up."Wake up! If you are going to catch the criminal, you won't be crying here. Wake up, this isn't the solution. Wake up!" He

I could have chosen another case file but, I wanted her to know the entire truth about her father's death. I placed her gently on her office table."I'll be back, I need to make a call." I said as she blinked in response."Hey Dave, are they around?" I asked quietly as he understood me."The police are about to take him. You should be fast or are we to hijack them on the way?" He asked as I shook my head."No, I'll go right now. I just need to make sure someone is okay." I said as I hung up."It's okay to leave, I want to be alone." Ewa whispered as I nodded before leaving.

I opened my system and began a background check on him. But, what I found amazed me.He was close friends with the late Mr. Dauda who died of cancer, Mr. Durotola and dad?? Why was dad his friend? Perhaps? No, it can't be. I grabbed those files I gathered on him. I really hope I could find something. I hope mom isn't related to this case!"So, Mr. Durotola is the next target? Damn, I need to tell Ewa." I picked my jacket and ran out. I really need to tell her before something happens. I hoped she is save. The murderer could come into play at anytime. I drove with full speed as various thought filled my mind. Was mom's case really involved in this matter. Also, why was dad close with them?I switched on the radio to ease my tension. "An unkno
