“Fuck!” Olalekan cursed as he smashed the remote on the ground. Staring at the TV. The reporter continued with the details of the incident as he turned towards his room door. He was just about to go to the office to meet Daniel and the other workers who had been informed about an impromptu meeting when the news came.
Getting to the Vertical Technology building, ignoring his PA and the reception lady, he took the stairs instead of the elevator to work out all his

07:32 PM.Two of Olalekan’s guards dragged in someone wearing a shirt Seven could recognize. They had used a blindfold on the person. There was no struggle. One of the guards dropped a bag on the table and pushed the person into one of the chairs. Seven’s heart began to beat fast.“His house was hard to locate.” The taller and more light-skinned guard informed.“Is this the Michael?” Olalekan said rhetorically.But Milkos responded. “Yes, I am Michael. My eyes are hurting, can you please tell your men to remove the blindfold?”Olalekan gestured to one of them to remove the blindfold. He did. Revealing Milkos’ cocky face with a smirk plastered on his lips, like a man who knew what he was capable of.

From this angle, the entire world was lit up. In the dangerous will of the night, Q was sandwiched between two vehicles inside the traffic that connected the Mainland to the Island.Pappi Chill’s authoritative voice cracked from his car radio. Q loved the controversial man. He was nodding in affirmation to the words said by the OAP about the negative effects of Twitter and other social networks on youth development.

Guards brought out their guns from their hostlers, aiming it at the masked man. they were ready to fire. Seven’s first instincts were to get on the ground, so did everyone else. Tall with a muscular build, the black man held his Revolver with one hand and a black leather bag on the other. He was clad in all-black from his boots to his vest. He had on leather pants and a black wooden mask. This was not a regular armed robber, they knew, he was on a mission.The Heads of Department and Computer Scientists were trembling. With their knees shaking violently, they avoided eye contact with the man.

Not many people could handle what these Vertical Technology employees handled. From watching people they have no idea who they are, punch themselves out, to watching three people including one of their colleagues get shot in the head for doing absolutely nothing.These scientists and Heads of Department had never in all their lives and all their time in the workforce been this scared, petrified. Looking at their boss used to be a sign of respect borne out of the fact that he was the one that paid their salaries. But now, they did not give a breeze of fuck.All the devices came back to life, this time the screens were blue. An audio wave was visible.“What do you mean, ‘David is here?’” Olalekan was getting very impatient.“It worked…” Daniel muttered under his breath as he joined MIlkos and the others to stare at the huge screen on the wall.Everyone except Seven was looking.

“So do you have anything to say concerning this?” Q asked Olalekan whose face was expressionless. “You better start talking.”“David.” Olalekan’s shoulders jittered. “Where did you get this information?”“You assault someone for stealing a couple of millions but you have been doing this for the past one year. Hundreds of millions running through your account and top government official’s accounts.”The Heads of Department and his staff looked at him with disgust.Someone clapped. Loud, nerving. Everyone turned to the voice. It was Q.“I’m very very impressed. Wow! Lekan, you’re a wonderful person. It all makes sense why you have been secretive all these while. Why you’ve been so hell-bent on finding your partner’s whereabouts.”“Of course,” David pointed out, “He had made most of these transactions during the

“You what?!” Seven was taken aback.“After those conversations with you, I ran through millions of religious materials and did a survey all over the internet which helped me understand how many humans feel about the concept of God and the significant role he plays in their lives. Unfortunately, many humans only serve him as a form of obligatory ritual. Not because they genuinely understand the concept. Even with the loops and holes in various indoctrination, Christianity is the most plausible one, the one that is more similar to the original truth.”“Wow, I umm…” Seven cleared his throat, his body was easing up now, and talking to David was enlightening. “Don’t really understand how all those shabby things I said to you would amount to you believing in God.”David sighed. “Sometimes it’s hard to tell if you intentionally feign ignorance to let people repeat what they say to confirm if they

“Hold still!” Angel tilted Seven’s head to align with hers. She was tiptoeing in front of her brother, hands stretching over his shoulders. They were inside his room. It was a cool evening and the sun took a dive West. The Soft tremble of Witt Lowry’s voice emanated from the Tablet-like Bluetooth speaker that sat on his dressing table.“Look, if you don’t want me to do this properly, tell me. So I can go and watch Nickelodeon. They’re showing the Thundermans.” Angel grumbled when Seven moved slightly, disrupting her hands as they tightened something on Seven’s neck.Seven chuckled uncomfortably. “Sorry, I don’t think I’m ready for this.”“If you’re not ready, I’m ready. You have no idea how long I have waited for this moment.”“Huh?”“Sometimes I actually look at you with pity. The loneliness echoing in your laughter
