“It’s seven o’clock.” Anna told me.
“So?” I asked her looking up from my phone.
“Breakfast is at 6.45. Your family is waiting downstairs.”
“I’m not hungry, thank you.”
“Your father insisted that you both come down for breakfast.”
“Who is ‘you both’?” I asked her.
“Alice doesn’t want to come down too.” Anna told me.
“Genesis come down to the kitchen now!” Dad’s voice sounded strict on the intercom.
Anna went to press the receive button. “She doesn’t want to come downstairs, Raphael.”
I through her a deadly look. I was in no mood for this right now.

“If we don’t talk this out, no one is leaving this kitchen.” Dad said going to lock the door and taking the big black key out of the keyhole of the kitchen door. “No one is going to work, to school, no where.”“We were already not allowed to go out.” Alice told dad. “You forgot that you kept us all on lockdown?”“Always exaggerating…”“At least, someone in this family is always speaking up, being honest. Appreciate that- Wait I just forgot, I don’t even belong to this family.”“Alice sit… down.” Dad looked angry.“What happens if I don’t? Are you gonna send me to my new mother?”“If we don’t talk this out nobody is going anywhere.” Dad spoke. “It’s up to you all how long you want to stay in this kitchen.

“I need some water.” Mom said trying to get up.“I’ll get it.” Francis told mom, getting up and going to the sink. We sat quietly, waiting for Francis to finish. The sound of the water rushing out of the tap was so loud in this silent large kitchen.Well, until Alice broke the silence. “I have a question. What will Francis be calling you now?”She was asking mom.“We’ll talk about that later.” Dad cut in.Francis placed the glass of water in front of mom and sat back down. Mom only took a sip of the water and then placed the glass back on the table. We sat waiting for mom to start talking.“You know what your dad said about forgiveness?” Mom started. “Marriage is all about forgiveness. I’ve forgiven your father a lot of times, for various reasons, like he mentioned. One of those reason’s was Delilah. She use to work here for us, right in this mansion. She use to cook, cle

Dad looked at mom and then Francis. He then looked at me. For a few seconds. I thought he was about to ignore Francis and start asking about Yoké again but he didn’t.“A mother is a mother.” He said, and then turned to Francis. “It’s your right. But you’re a smart man: you know how highly I value our reputation. You know how much of a role it plays in our company, for our contracts, in getting and keeping clients. You know very well. So I know you know what that means: same applies to you like I told Gen and Alice, as long as the world outside doesn’t know. These servants signed a very serious confidentiality contract, they know if they just as much as say our name to other people, they’ll be in very serious trouble.

Did Omar not hear a word I said? I clearly told him that I’m not allowed to leave the house. He wants me to leave now? Does he know what the time is? It’s two in the morning. How the hell am I supposed to leave this place at two in the morning. Morning jog? At two? No one will fall for that. And dad is home, sleeping downstairs.My phone began ringing. I quickly answered.“Omar, I can’t leave the mansion, I swear.” I told him.“I forgot to tell you to leave your phone at home when you come and delete my last message.”“Why shouldn’t I bring my phone?” I asked him.“Just do what I said. I’ll see you soon.”“Omar you need to tell me what’s going on with you and Yoké-” He hung up before I could even finish.I pressed the area between my eyes and pinched

The closest hospital on the GPS was so far from where I had met Omar. It was killing me seeing Omar lye so helplessly in the backseat while I couldn’t get him to the hospital fast enough. It killed me to keep thinking of the possibility of us arriving too late at the hospital. I was shaking my head. I’d never ever be able to forgive myself.I glanced at Omar and saw his eyes close.“Hey, hey, hey!” I was telling him. “Omar wake up. Don’t you die on me, Omar, don’t you dare die on me.”He opened his eyes to look at me but only half-way.“I want you to try harder.” I told him. “Open your eyes. You are strong enough. Look, look, Omar, there’s the hospital in front. We are almost there. Don’t you close your eyes.”As soon as I drove through the gates I began honking.“I need help! I need help!” I was calling out the window as I drove to the entrance. “He’s been Shot!”When I got t

As I stood in front of the closed doors I tried to understand what Omar was telling me but it just didn’t make any sense. I started walking back to the waiting area. I saw a vending machine. Gosh, my stomach growled. I went back to the car and took another note. I came back to the vending machine and took two protein bars and some water. I went looked for the toilets. I followed the signs, until I got there. I walked up to the sink and looked at myself in the mirror. I was a walking mess. There was even stains of Omar’s blood on my face. How did they even get there? I opened the tap and started washing my hands with soap. After my hands were clean I washed my face. I wet my hair a little and tired it up on the top of my head with the band I always wore around my wrist at before bed as I undid my hair. I looked at myself, my face looked better but my clothes were still a mess, huge blood stains on my white and pink pyjama top and pants. Although there was no blood on that

“What did you say?” Dad asked me.Was I doing the right thing telling dad about Yoké?“He is here in Duran. He came here for me. And we met. I saw him.”Dad opened his mouth but no words came out. He looked blown away. He looked around placing his hands on his waste.“And where did you see him?” That seemed like the only words which could leave his mouth without him blowing up.“Everywhere. My apartment, his apartment, here in the mansion-”“Wh- what?” Dad asked, pronunciation so clear. “How the hell did he get into this mansion?”I kept quiet. If I told him how, he’d know that Yoké is none other than Dan. Dan: Alice’s boyfriend, the guy I’m in love with and the guy whose baby I was carrying. That doesn’t sound good for Yoké

“Go to your rooms, the both of you!” Dad told Alice and I as he was trying to button up his pyjama top, clumsily.“Anna, how could you do this?” I asked her, felling such a heavy weight on my heart.She too, trying to wear her uniform.“I’m so sorry.” Anna told us. “I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean for you guys to see this.”“Just go back upstairs now.” Dad was telling us.“How could you, dad?” Alice was asking, I could see her eyes fill with tears. Alice was gonna cry!“Weren’t you the one who is always about respect and loyalty to the family?” I asked him. “How could you do this to us? Is this what you call respect?”“Raphael.” I heard my mother’s squeaky voice. When I turned around, she threw both her hands to her mouth and began crying. She looked so vulnerable.Alice and I quickly ran to her, hugging her.“How could you le

"We have nothing left because of him." Dad said, staring at the ground. "I can't believe I trusted him that much.""Who is it, dad?" I asked."None other than your very own half brother, slash cousin, slash no relation at all, Francis.""What?" I asked. "What is he looking for? He wants to make money out of Toko Village meanwhile he is stealing from us and still gets a basic salary on top of that. How can someone love money this much? So much that you'd steal from your own..."Alice and Yoké joined us, they had heard the news too."I knew that that sneaky guy was dodgy." Alice said as she stopped behind the couch Delilah was sitting on and leaned on it.

Uma was awake, and as soon as we entered his ward and he saw us, he smiled, looked away and began sobbing. He covered his hand over his eyes and sobbed. "Aww." We chorused in unison, as if we had planned to. "Don't cry babe." He's girlfriend, Esther said, quickly walk-runned to him. She sat on the side of his bed and hugged him. She hugged him for a while as he continued crying. "We are here..." She told him, she looked sad too. "We love you and we'll always be here for you."

I stopped at the door way before entering the living room. He was in a navy blue suit, standing next to the couch, instead of sitting. Rosalie had just brought him his drink. He briefly pointed towards the table where she was supposed to place his drink. I went to sit on the couch opposite the one dad was standing next to. Yoké stayed at the room door post and leaned against it.Dad paced to and fro and stopped where he had started."So we've lost more than half of our clients..." Dad said, voice still powerful although the sad message.I kept quiet and watched him."We've lost most of our projects we were busy with, the clients asked to cancel their contracts or else they'd take us to court. Most of our employees, has resigned because they see the downfall. They know that we won't be able to pay them. Only the loyal ones remain."He then shrugged. "Maybe they're not even loyal.

We stopped a block away from the motel just incase there were people put in place by Nathan to watch Yoké. But we could see the motel from here. It was a cheap old building. So cheap that the light of the ‘M’ in ‘Motel was flickering so bad that you’d think it would just die any moment. “So what will happen is you’ll give me Nathan’s phone so that when I get in, I can ask him which room number he is at.” The woman half turned to talk to me.“But I’m going in with you.” I told her.She shook her head. “I may not have been entirely loyal to your father but I’m not bad enough of a worker to put your life in potential danger.”“What do you mean danger? I’m—”“I have a gun. Although I’m going in there alone, I know how to defend myself up to a certain point. We don’t know whether Nathan’s men are in there, or around here, in some building, possibly watching us right now. What happens if they fire at us?”“They’ll never fire at me—”“You d

You don’t ever have to worry about Nathan ever again. He’s in custody…”“Nathan is in custody?”“He’s gone. He’ll never stand between us again. It’s all good now.”“No, no, no Geny. You don’t know Nathan, he’ll never be ‘gone’. You have to hang up right now and never call this number again.”“I’m telling you, my love. It’s over for him.

I slammed the car door and fell back on the back seat. The woman, who was supposed to shut the already shut door for me gave me an unbelievable look and then got into the driver's seat."So what happened to your twin? Isn't he going to come with us?" I asked, bitterly."I understand you're upset that your father won't help you with your boyfriend but you don't have to take it out on me, or the car door." She told me looking back at me.We maintained eye contact for a while until she turned back and fastened her seat belt. She started the car and we were on the road again after a few minutes.I was too angry to care about how much this woman was looking at me in the rear view mirror."What?" I suddenly asked after a while of more rear view eye contact.She suddenly stopped the car causing me to fall forward and hit against her seat."Hey!" I shouted as I sat back in my seat.

“Come here, my love.” Nathan told me. “Come take a seat next to me.”“I don’t want to sit next to you.” I told him. “I want you to tell me which plane Yoké is planning to take and when.”“Gen, your dad will always choose me over Dan. Look, all this is a misunderstanding. Once I speak to him things can go back to the way they were. We could still get married and what happens today would never come to light. We’d still be the world’s favorite couple.”I didn’t even know what to say to him. “Are you crazy?” Those were the only words that could leave my mouth.“I’m crazy about you, yes. My fiancée.”“Nathan, tell me which plane Yoké is planning to take. Please.”“Why do you need him when I’m here?” He asked me.Just then, two cops walked in."Is he ready for us now?" One asked."Yes, sir." One of the nurses answered."Okay." The policeman said and began unlocking the cuff on Nathan's arm to the bed.

When they got out of the car and came to open the door for me, I didn’t even try to fight them off, what was the use? No matter how much I would try, they’d still have the upper hand. And besides even if I manage to get away, how do I get home without a cellphone or money? There hasn’t been a building in sight since we’ve hit the road.“I’ll walk myself.” I told them as they opened the door for me.They exchanged looks. What was it with these two and looking at each other as if they could pass little messages with just one glance?“Look, if you try to run, we won’t go after you,” The male officer told me. “The distance back is not walkable, you’ll starve out there and die and then your family will never hear of you again. So don’t try anything stupid, okay?”I didn’t respond.“You have a better chance of surviving this than running away.” The lady

When I got back to my senses, my first instinct was to unlock the doors and get as far away as I could from this car and Nathan. Nathan was still crying out in agony, trying to ease his pain by clutching onto his wrist with the unharmed hand. I reached out and pressed the unlock button on the stirring wheel. He didn’t try to stop me, just continuing yelling in pain. I opened the door on my side. As I was about to step out, I remembered, Nathan was our only way to getting Rissa back. I reached into his suit pocket where I had seen him put his phone back after the call with one of his men.“What are you doing, Genesis?” He asked me but did not try to fight me off. “Help me.”I began searching the pockets of his jacket for the phone.“Help me, Genesis.” He said again, looking at me helplessly as I searched his pockets. “I love you.”“Freeze!” I looked up to see a policemen on Nathan’s si
