Annabel in her usual gait, enthusiastically barged into Nasha’s apartment. She didn’t knock much longer at the door before Nasha unbolted it. Then she walked straight to her bedroom and threw herself in the bed like a schoolgirl who returned from school during the summer.“Girlie, what happened to your phone? I have been calling since last night.”She asked concerningly as she got up from the bed and took a few steps to the refrigerator to get a chilled juice. While she poured the juice into two glass cups, she presented one to Nasha who grabbed it with haste as she poured it down her throat.“Ann, it’s nothing. I was just feeling sick, and I needed to be left alone”.“Oh really? When did you become a private person? And when did you start hiding your life affairs from me? “Ann flared up. But she later simmered down when Nasha began to cry. Then she moved close to her as she persuaded her to confide in her and say the problem. “My baby, we’ve known each other since fourteen, so, wh
Nasha returned home, battered and shattered. She couldn’t fathom why a person could incur all the problems in the world upon herself.And as soon as Annabel arrived at the house to inquire about the earlier incident, she was dismissed immediately as Nasha said,“I don’t want to talk about it. I beg to have my space for the moment”.Then Annabel left sadly. And she shut the door, as she soliloquized,“Why me? Why now? Why...?”. She lifted the small jar of flowers and smashed it on the wall, then threw herself on the floor like a woman whose husband was killed in the battle Field. “This has to end! This has to end now! I am exhausted by everything! Is it a crime to come from a lower class? It’s obvious that the world is against me!”She remained at that same spot and wept bitterly. One of Nasha’s parents died when she was ten and she was left in the care of her poor father; whose only means of livelihood was Shoemaking. He used the paltry sum to sponsor Nasha through Highschool. Bu
A certain group of students was seen gathered in a circular form, by the side of the Engineering department building; talking, hissing, and clapping their hands like gossip in the native market.One said, “Who knows who would be the next victim? “And another said, “ I think the school should rusticate her.”“ But what if she has ties with the management? “An oval face girl asked. “She doesn’t have such a connection, girl. She's such an indigent.” Another person snapped.They laughed sarcastically, rubbing their shoulders slightly.Then Nasha suddenly passed by their side and they became mute like dumbs as they turned their faces to another side; pretending to be waiting for their friends.Nasha walked into the class to receive lectures as usual, but she was stopped by some security personnel whom the head of the department have instructed that she shouldn’t be let in. “Get out of my way! What’s wrong with all of you?” she flared up. “We are very sorry, Ma'am! But we ha
Richardson woke up feeling skeptical. The conversation he had with Tina struck his heart like a hammer. How could he let someone else take the love of his life from him because of his bad attitude? No, a man shouldn’t be in a pool and allow soap bubbles to blind his eyes; he must wash it off. And in that case, Richardson resolved to confront George. He knew that he was as influential as him and even more than. But that wouldn’t stop him from fighting for the one he loved. He got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom for a brief shower. And in the next few minutes, he was already dressed in a semi-causal dress as he hurried off to George’s office.When he arrived at the office, he met Nasha and George talking and laughing, then he became furious.And rather than confronting Nasha, he started throwing tantrums at George. “You rascal that parades himself as an officer of the law have you no shame? How could you belittle yourself to date,, someone you ought to investigate
“Yes, baby I know".she whispered as her silky hair flipped sideways. He lifted her face and stared into her eyes like he hadn’t seen a girl of her kind before.She is a drop-dead gorgeous girl, he knew and that was why he wouldn’t want anything to happen to her or even affect her mental health. Then her heart raced intensely as her stomach buzzed with passion. She dropped her eyes to the floor, avoiding eye contact with him. But he moved his lips close to hers’ as their eyes became shut, letting their tongues strike against each other, as their succulent lips echo in rhythm. He caressed her body euphorically as he hastily pulled off her bra and began to fondle her tatas. Then she yippee as she unzipped her trousers for him to have his way. He slided his two fingers into her muff and pushed it to and fro until it got wet. Then he brought out his tallywhacker and stroke it in her thing. But the position wasn’t convenient then he made her bent over in a doggy position as he stro
It had been two weeks since the court adjourned the murder case, and Nasha had returned to her shell as usual, hoping that her fate would bring her luck this time. She could have believed that with George on her side, nothing could break her anymore but it has begun to become more complicated by the day as everyone wants to take advantage of her. And now, she couldn’t even trust her shadow. Reminiscing on the demands of the judge to have the case turned in her favour, had kept her jolted and stirred up tons of anger in her veins. She could think to stay back in the town until the next seating of the court but all she could hear in her spirit was “Run, Run! They will kill you! George won’t be able to protect you!”She covered her ears with her hands to shut off the voice as she screamed “No!!” and then fell on the floor as sleep swayed her like a one-month-old baby. Then she had a dream where she saw two monsters chasing her. She galloped until she saw George who smiled at her the
George returned to his apartment after an unfruitful search. On that day, he had seen a lad who told him that he saw Nasha standing by the train station going to Polperro. “Mr, I know the Miss that you’re seeking. She has gone to Polperro I guess cos I saw her standing by the train station yesterday.”But he doubted the young boy as he considered him too small to comprehend his pains and to even give meaningful suggestions. Thus, he flung off his talks as he went back to proceed with the murder investigations which was his primary assignment. He had gotten information that night, that the London big boys and girls would be having a pool party at Beacon Hotel.Then he hastily suspended his other work and dressed lavishly as he tend to disguise himself to belong to the league. He arrived at the Hotel by 10 PM. And as he walked in, he beheld men and women of different calibers seated circley in different seats with their circles. Then it became difficult for him to identify the
Nasha’s new life at Polperro was becoming more interesting. She garnered the fragment that she was and turned it into an exquisite fine art.Her glowing becomes anew by the day as her flawless skin shines effortlessly. She had many office assistants; distinguishing her position as the director general of Nasha's Special Taste.Though she had forgotten the pains of being rusticated from school and the pains of being accused wrongly, but one thing she couldn’t forget was George’s nonchalance about her whereabouts. She loved him very much and she had thought he did love her as well. But as the saying goes, love is tested when one is in trouble. However, in her case, George had supported and stood by her beyond doubt.And even if he decided to withdraw his support from her, she would still be grateful for the times that he was with her. Star was the only person that she had reached out to since she moved to Polperro. Star had promised to come to check on her by the next week and sh
The ancient rock is lovely and colourful though lonely. On the left-hand side was a beautiful building, the single and lonely building where George and Nasha stayed before her disappearance. “This is the place. It’s on this spot that they disappeared”. George sobbed and pointed at the place to Fred. “It’s ok. You don’t have to do this. Man up, bro. We will find her.” Fred assured as he took the lead and they hastily ransacked the inside and outside of the building. However, when they couldn’t find anything in the building, they resolved to follow the lonely tick path, and that path was filled with thorns. So they narrowly walked through the lonely path amid the pierces they got from the thorns. And even though it hurt immensely, they persevered until they reached the topmost of the rock. And there, they saw a heap of smoke coming out from a tiny hole. So they thought that it could be one of those bush hunters that would have lightened up the fire but on a second thou
The journey to the ancient rock was seventy-two hours. So while George was driving, Nasha was sleeping. And when he drove a bit, he would slow down and check if she was alright. So considering the distance of the place, George decided to lodge at the only hotel on that lonely highway.He alighted at the hotel by 8 pm then he left Nasha in the car as he reached the reception. “Excuse me, Miss. I need a good room for me and my fiancée.” George said to the receptionist. “ Welcome, Sir. Here’s the key for room 205, it’s very spacious and I hope you will like it.” The receptionist smilingly responded. George collected the key and thanked her snappily as he returned to the car and tapped Nasha to wake from sleep. “My love, my love, please wake up.” He said as Nasha opened her eyes. “Where are we?”She queried amid the grogginess. Then George smiled and replied, “We are in a hotel. We should spend a night here then we will continue our journey tomorrow. It’s v
So George got up from his seat and went to the cell and instructed the warder to bring him out. “Bring him to bail office.” “Yes, Sir.” The warder replied as he proceeded to unlock the cell. And as he unlocked the cell, he thundered at him, “Come out now!”So Richardson came out and was led to the bail office. “Remove those cuffs from his hands,” George said to the warder and he did as he commanded. Then he turned to Richardson and said, “Sit down and sign these papers”.So he sat down as he avoided looking at his uncle’s face and when he was done signing the undertaking, George said to him,“Learn to be a good man Stop causing trouble”. But he smirked and left abruptly and even when his uncle was catching up with him, he walked faster than ever as he hopped into a taxi, parked by the roadside. “Move now!” he ordered the driver then he turned on the engine of the car and drove off after a while, he asked him for his directions but he answered rudely,“Move this car! Do not ask
What do we do now?” She queried after cleaning the blood on his body.Then he snarled, “Allow me to heal first please!”So Nasha dressed the wound as she proceeded to give him a pain relief medicine. “Take this, drink it, you will get better. “Star shakily sat up as he said peeking at her face, “Where do you get that?” “It has been in my bag since I arrived here”. She snapped.Then he nodded as he collected the medicine and swallowed it as he slept off after a few minutes. But before that, he instructed that Nasha should remain in the cave regardless of the intensity of any sound. So she remained in there as she sat quietly, holding her breath with her hands as she heard many footsteps, stepping on the cave. However, while Star was still sleeping, Nasha rose from where she sat to the kitchen part of the cave, to prepare the food that they would eat before he woke up. But while she was cutting the veggies, the sharp knife that she was holding, blushed and cut one of her finger
**********************So Star sailed back to the island and quickly carried Nasha to the hut and lay her on the bed as he applied hot stuff on her body. George had been trying to reach Nasha ever since she left for the unknown destination but the terrible server couldn’t let him.However, when he opened his laptop, the signal of the watch that Nasha wore; which was connected to his laptop, showed danger. He could see the location at a very far distance but it was a little blurry then his heart sank as he quickly called his teams to inform them to get ready to search for her the next day. “Fred, I am getting too worried. Her phone number has been switched off and her watch is showing danger signals. I don’t want to think that something bad has happened to her.”“Calm down, she’s fine. I believe so” Fred said over the phone then George snapped, “We will go in search of her tomorrow, inform others!”He hung up as he walked to and fro tensely. Nasha became conscious around
Please, wait. Please, wait! “ Nasha pleaded as she ran after him. But he was already in the hut. So when Nasha entered the hut, she saw him sitting on the wooden settee wearing a scrunched face. “What is it? Did my question annoy you?” She queried while standing arm crossed. But as silence enveloped the room for a few minutes, then he said, “No. I’m just having mood swings. Perhaps, you should learn to ask me questions when I’m in a good mood. “Nasha swallowed her word and nodded then turned around and left the hut. She walked to the island coconut tree where there was sufficient shade, then she sat down and brought out her phone from her combat Jean pocket then attempted dialing George’s number but she realized that the network server was fluctuating. She hissed as she stared into the space sorrowfully. And whatsoever attitude the man that brought her to the island exhibited, was what she didn’t want to bother her as her major concern was to see Star and then do the
“Alright, dear team members. Thank you very much for your time. And I sincerely apologize if you found her responses offensive.” George said as he moved from his seat and began to shake his colleagues. But they smiled and said “No problems. We understand.” Then George excused himself and ran to catch up with Nasha. Nasha got to her apartment and threw herself on the bed as she stared at the ceiling. She wasn’t having it well with George’s behavior and she had a rethink that the man that she knew was not the same again. However, she shut her eyes, to force herself to sleep but then George arrived and disrupted her with his knocks. “Who is there? Do you want to break the door?” She yelled as she got up pronto and reached for the door. So when she unbolted the door and saw that it was George, she turned and returned to lie on the bed. “My love, what is it? Why were you yelling at me? Who else would have come here if not for me? “ George said as he moved close to where she
Richardson punched the wall severally and ceaselessly and blood started gushing out from his knuckle, his house help rushed and stopped him from injuring himself anymore. “Stop it, Sir. Please, stop.”She clenched her arms around his waist like a woman participating in tug of war until she dragged him out from the wall and both of them fell on the grass floor. Richardson stood up and dusted the dirt on his body then ran to the bathroom and grabbed a tissue as he hastily cleaned up the blood. As he raised his face, he saw his battered looks in the wall mirror, as hot sweat ran out from his head and dropped to his face. He cleaned it and spat inside the sink then declared, “I can’t be defeated! No, I can’t! I must fight to finish!”Then he reached the bedroom picked up his phone and dialed Don’s number. And within a second, the phone buzzed as Don’s voice echoed to his end, “Hello Chair, our plans remain the same, we will execute them tonight.”“Don, please listen.
“What do you think that you are doing?” George thundered. Richardson grinned as he lifted the remaining bottle and was about to smash it But Nasha out of furiousness slapped his face and howled, “Have you gone nut? For how long are you going to continue with this madness? Haven’t I made it clear to you that we are no longer a thing? But we can be good friends. Yes, we can!” Richardson dropped the bottle and laughed sarcastically as he said, “Hehehehe…., You ingrate! Go on and tell me that you are not! Where were your so-called lover boy when I sent my boys to rescue you from the hands of that beast? But here you are, smiling and making merry with him. I should have known that you are an unforgivable person; that you won’t consider me again, I would have walked away long ago.And you bastard”, he turned to George, “I will make life a living hell for you since you have vowed to have her”. Then he turned and walked out of the bar. While Nasha teared up George tried to pacify
