It was Ricky. He swore loudly once the door slammed shut.
"Where the hell have you been?" He yelled over the noise.

When he looked up, he gave a wry smile. "You're lucky Michael. You know, the first time you stepped into Donny's, I wondered what you were doing there. You couldn't have known what you were getting into but I was angry with you for some reason. That you'd throw it all away. You have a family and people looking out for you."I was quiet as his words sank

My mom got occasional calls from my school teachers. Calls had also come in from Ola's teachers about the bullying. She had asked for updates on both of us."What, do you expect me to leave my two children home alone and not try to know what's going on?" She said.

I visited mom two days later and she was quite shocked to see me there again so soon. When I was sure she was okay and I updated her about happenings at home, I went to the hospital cafeteria to get a snack and hopefully catch a glimpse of Katherine. I was halfway into a meat pie before I saw her. She walked alone thankfully, so it gave me that extra boost of confidence to wave to her.

I was surprised at how much I looked forward to seeing her. I didn’t turn around just yet and remained where I was as I tried to decide whether to just leave or say hello. I decided to at least say something but when I turned to look for her, she was gone. "Honey, are you sure it's him?"My mom asked when I returned to the room. She referred to the

I didn't tell her anything about that night because I didn’t want her opinion of me to change but her dad knew some of the stories behind that night. I felt like I owed it to Dr Meyers to tell him what happened after how much he had helped me. I didn't want him to be deceived or keep information from him in case it came back to bite me in the future.I was worried that it would somehow get out in the public that I was once an employee of Donny's and the Police would come looking for me. Although I knew I hadn't done anything wrong. I'd even gotten rid of the weap

“Hold on, here's a quick one. You know what this means guys, it’s next week Friday, who’s going to be there?” Ayo drew our attention back to his gig. “What exactly are you performing for this time?” Idris asked. “There’s a fundraiser and a couple of bands and artists were invited.”
When You Least Expect It Chapter Forty Four
We walked into the hotel lobby where Laura and Idris waited. I couldn’t help but glance around the reflective walls-wow I looked amazing if I do say so myself- and the colourful paintings that seemed to give off a life of their own. Laura saw us first, as she walked toward us her heels clicked sharply on the floor. Idris soon followed closely behind. “Well, look at you!” I grinned as she spun around slowly for us to be awed by her silk evening gown. It draped nicely on her body and flowed down like a midnight blue waterfall.

Most of the unexpected people at fundraiser had set me on edge but I couldn’t miss it when Ayo and his band came on stage to perform. There was a palpable change in the atmosphere of the room and it suddenly became lively. It was always a rewarding experience to watch him in his element as he pretty much owned the stage within those moments he performed. There was a short break in between performances so we walked around the hall to mingle and grab some refreshments. I picked up a mini platter of grilled chicken with sauce and couldn’t help but take a mome

It was a couple of weeks before our final exams and we studied like crazy. But of course, Idris studied more than anyone else. That guy was like a machine when it came to studies while the rest of us were mere mortals. I had convinced Laura to tutor me in mathematics. It was a subject we all studied despite our different departments at school. It was also the bane of my existence. Laura and I sat on the floor in the sitting room with our mathematics textbooks laid out before us.

I did not know a lot of guys like Michael. Okay, so I did not know a lot of guys, period. Anyway, I had not felt as comfortable around a guy as I did around him. However, the day I saw a movie at the cinema with Michael and his friends, it had all started great until he went to the bathroom and returned agitated. I recalled the uneasy look in his eyes even though he tried to act like everything was okay. I remembered the shock I felt when he grabbed my arm. It made me wonder if there were other sides to him that I had not seen. Well, I guessed everyone had a side to them that other people did

I had only spent a couple of days at my new secondary school but one thing I was sure of was that it was very different from my former school. Everyone here seemed to know each other from somewhere. If it was not kindergarten, it was a primary school, church or they were family friends. I was a stranger in a new place with zero ideas of how I was supposed to survive the new term of school. I was in junior secondary school so you could imagine how it felt to be the new student. People stared when I walked past and they stared some more when we were in class together.

I was livid as I took Kiki out of the hotel and hailed a cab. The cab driver gave us a curious look but didn’t ask any questions. We must have looked a sight to behold. I was furious and it was written plain as day on my face while Kiki was in a wet bathrobe with fear in her expression. I gave the cab driver the address and he drove off. We didn’t speak until we got home and even then I could barely look at her without remembering the scene at the hotel. I did not understand where my innocent 13-year old sister had gone and who this person was in her place. “Caleb,” she whispered with a downcast gaze as her eyes grew misty.“What?” I snapped.“I’m sorry.”“Sorry doesn’t cut it just yet. You have a lot of explaining to do so you better start right now before I lose my temper any further. Tell me how you two met.”“At my friend’s brother’s party.”“Which friend is that?”“Coco, you don’t know her.”“Who is her brother?”“Her brother, Cole is a model, a popular one. Her brother threw a

The night I left town to be out of Donny’s sights was a night I cannot forget in a hurry. Besides, unintentionally scaring Michael and hanging around dark corners of the neighbourhood, I was also afraid of what could happen to me. Coming into town was a risk I had to take for Michael’s sake, especially since I learned that Donny was planning to build up his crime empire again. I had served Donny for several years but I was not sure if my life was safe. After all, I had seen him do many scary things. He had killed before, I saw it happen once. He did not pull the trigger himself but
