Chapter 71: Martha
Madrid, 2020
Blackwheel seemed to read Matthew's mind as he drove quietly to a busy marketplace in Madrid.
"Your help was really appreciated yesterday," Matthew said, turning to Blackwheel. He smiled. "Someday, I will be ready to pay you back for what you did for me and my kids. In my family, giving is like forgiveness. It was created to be shared and not selfishly stored. There are some people who will be placed in your position and still do otherwise."
"It is just a car," Blackwheel said, trying to prevent himself from smiling. "Anyone could have helped you if they had seen your kids inside your car."
"I doubt!" Matthew said with confidence. "Human nature has grown from bad to worse. People are only interested in what you can give them and not what they can give you. I would love to thank God for placing you in that position yesterday but I don't believe in him. So, I am at the middle of deciding if I should thank him or stay the same."

Owerri, 2020Two days had passed since Ifenna read a part of a book that talked about James Blackwheel and all he could think about, buried within the very deepest parts of his mind was Maria Blackwheel.In his short life, he had been blessed to meet people who were able to expose him to puzzles of life, difficult situation that he couldn't comprehend. And all he could do was respond with a faint nod to show that he was listening, that he was understanding even though he wasn't."Dinner is ready," Kainene said, folding a newspaper underneath her armpit covered with small curly black hairs."I will soon be there," Ifenna responded, rubbing his face with his hard palm. He couldn't get the thoughts of Maria out of his head neither could he accept the fact that there was a strong connection between her and James Blackwheel.As he sat for another ten seconds, his mind shut down, trying very hard to resist travelling a little bit back in time when

Madrid, 2020As Blackwheel drew closer to the statue that had made Matthew's daughter shake, he saw something that was quite familiar to him. He saw the biblical figure, David in it.He stared at the naked man who appeared to be pointing towards the sky for a while and frowned. Then, slowly, he stepped back as he trembled with a new idea that had flooded his mind."I looked it up in the Internet, Dad," Martha continued. "It wasn't in this shape. The naked man was pointing east and not towards the sky.""It doesn't matter," Matthew comforted his daughter. "Statues undergo renovation sometimes. Maybe that is what happened to your friendly naked man.""Your dad is right about the statue, Martha," Blackwheel said. He strained; the muscles of his shoulders and legs quivered with effort. He faced Matthew. "I will have to go now while you sort out things with your daughter. If you ever need me Matthew, you can call the number I am going to g

Madrid, 2020Even with the sound of the music in the room buzzing his ears, Blackwheel seemed to not notice that he had been sitting quietly for almost half an hour, thinking about a ball that rocketed across an old bridge in England and landed inside the heart of an old tomb that was once the dwelling place of an important earl.All the traffic that was going on his mind was moving in the other direction, in the opposite direction that he couldn't notice, towards the negativity of his mind, as if he had suddenly become the hottest man on earth."God bless my soul," he said as he brought out a rosary that was lying on top of the drawer."God bless my soul and the soul of all those who has died carelessly in an effort to return sanity to mankind," he said again as he kissed the rosary gently.Ten hours later and he was sitting in the backseat of an already filled bus, different questions whipping through his mind as he tried to find the nearest chur

An old man with a white beard named Dev said."We understand you as much as we respect your wisdom, sir," Five men dressed in white replied."You must be careful when you say each words because they contain meanings that shape the very existence of this world.""We understand you very much, sir.""Do you understand me?""Yes, sir!""Now, tell me the most important aspect of life?""Discipline!""And what follows it?""Courage!""And how do we achieve both?""By finding the missing necklace."
The Last Full Moon Chapter 76: Pastor
Madrid, 2020The phone in Blackwheel's pocket rang as he stepped down from the bus and raised a hand towards Xavi to tell him goodbye. Xavi answered, feeling sad as it dawned on him that he was not going to see the man who had the guts to tell him that Jesus was a black man."God bless you, sir," Xavi said to Blackwheel."God bless you too, son," Blackwheel replied and watched as the bus disappeared into another section of the road.Even from a few feet away, Blackwheel could easily recognize the cross on top of the church that was close to him. The symbol of Christ proudly warming the sky."Can I help you with something?" A short man with a Spanish accent asked. He was much shorter than the last unfamiliar man that had approached Blackwheel. Fortunately, the man talking to Blackwheel was also a pastor."Not really," Blackwheel said. "I was just hoping I could spend some quiet time with God before leaving.""Some quiet time, you say.
The Last Full Moon Chapter 77: Rebecca
Madrid, 2020Blackwheel was moving slowly as he felt his stomach grow unusually wider than its original size, and it was only a matter of half a minute before he realized the enlargement of his stomach was just his mind messing around with him in an effort to make him think about the woman that had asked him questions about abortion and prostitution.Rebecca!He positioned himself behind the wall as he watched Rebecca coming out from the supermarket."Good grief," he exhaled as he watched Rebecca conceal the item she had gotten from the supermarket beneath casually crossed arms in front of her, out of sight but accessible in a flash whenever she needed to show someone what she had bought. She seemed to walk faster and faster as the gap increased, and Blackwheel struggled to keep up without drawing unnecessary attention to himself.They walked for a while, cut across two distinct streets before Blackwheel's shoes scuffed a stone and sent him almost

Lagos, 2020Kainene let out a gasp as her partner, Ifenna approached the building.Inside the building, glowing like evil eyes covered with dust, she saw nothing except for her own sad imagination."Pathetic!" Ifenna let out a soft air."I thought I saw something," Kainene tried to defend herself without putting much effort.It didn't work."I can see what you thought you saw," Ifenna continued. "You probably saw a ghost covered in dust because that is the only reasonable thing that could have made you draw my attention.""I thought I saw something more than that," Kainene bit her lips."What do you think you saw?""I thought I saw a werewolf.""A werewolf?" Ifenna sighed and then hissed. "Are you trying to make a fool out of my genuine kindness?""It is far from that, honey," Kainene touched Ifenna gently. "I am serious about what I saw.""What you saw?" Ifenna moved away from her.
The Last Full Moon Chapter 79: Sandra
Lagos, 2020Ifenna had no idea where he was going as he followed Kainene from behind but he knew he had to continue following her if he wanted to prove to her that all her friends were the same, if she wanted to prove to him that all her friends were different. Kind, nice and reasonable. His elbows and knees burned as he covered more distance as if he was placed in a fire and was about to be roasted because of a false allegation laid on his head. Still, he persevered. The desire to prove Kainene wrong was his only compass, driving him slowly to follow her without hesitation, driving him slowly to endure the amount of time he was wasting without thinking otherwise."Your sister is funny," Ifenna said as he rubbed his forehead to remove the sweat that had occupied there."She is a blooming flower waiting to be touched by the right man," Kainene replied then added, "I can't wait for you to meet Sandra.""I bet she can't
