Uncle Jason brought us back after the incident and thanks to uncle drake, he pulled some strings so my family wouldn't be pulling along with the drama. "Hey! How are you doing?". After an hour, I met with Kiki outside the mansion. She held a cup of tea in her hand as she Slightly turned back and faced me. "I'm good and you?" Her response was quick and without delay. "I've been better," I approached forward and held her from behind. "I almost thought we were going to die together " She took her head back a bit and slightly resting on my shoulder.."Me too, but thank God, nothing bad has happened ". I replied, as I slowly strokes her hair with my hand..We stood outside until we were ready to go back Inside, it was already late and I wouldn't want to keep her awake. "Goodnight, Kiki" . I walked her to the door Of her bedroom.."Goodnight ". She smiled and then turned her head, and opened her door. I was just leaving then she called me back.." Hold on, munory". She said."Yes!"
mobster husband.I walk into my home after a long day at college, and the first thing I find welcoming me was a man, holding a loaded gun to the head of my dad. Dad saw me freaked out."Hey! What's going on?". I said as I let go of my bags and ran to save him.But the man, takes his hand back, following with the gun .... "Muna, why are you here so early?".Dad went up from his knees and slinked me back to his frightened gaze. "Dear, go to your bedroom,'. Dad instructed. He pushed me in the direction of my bedroom. I looked at mom as she gave me a slight nod. I believe she also wanted me gone.I left without getting my bags, I heard no noise, no one said anything until I banged the door to my bedroom.....Immediately. The whispering began.....I couldn't hear what they were talking about. However, the fright of a gun fixed to the head of my parents again made me more troubled.I paced around my bedroom.Then suddenly, I got a luminous idea.I thought maybe I can get a glimpse
He snatched mom and yelled to her face."How dare you slap Corey, I'll make you pay,".He says, as he dragged her to the kitchen, turned on the gas cooker, and practically attempted to burn her hand with the flames.I couldn't stand there and watch that happen, I rode past my scared dad, and walked between him and my mom.He stares at me angrily. "You should learn how to respect, your elders, didn't your mom teach you that?" I said, I managed to break his grip on my mother. Mom was freaking out of uncertainty. That alone made me mad. I gently shifted mom and took her place."Come on, you wanted to burn her right, you can as well, do it to me, I dare you,"..... I said... Without fear..... Corey laughed. "you sure?, I don't do well with threats,". He said."Seriously, I should be the one telling you, or better yet, are you scared now?". I brought down my hands close to the flames of the gas cooker... ...Mom begged me to stop. Dad seconded. I looked away ignoring their words, all I
Dad looked at my hands. His eyes were so watery, that he closed them and a teardrop falls on my plan. I felt it ease a little off the pain in my palm."Dear, come with me,". Mom dragged me away from dad and forcefully sat me down on the sofa to attend to my wounds. She pressed a wet towel into my hand and stared emotionally at me.While mom attended to my wounds, Corey stood and watched. After that, dad walks up to him and begged me to give him enough time to pay up his loan. Corey and I locked eyes I felt him enjoying the scene, he looks away and said to dad."Mr. Nunan, I don't think I'll be needing any more time, because I not only want your daughter as collateral but also she will get married to me and become my wife,"... The towel falls from my hand. My parents and I stared at him with shock.No! He can't be serious, or can he?....I stood up and fought against it."Never, you must be out of your mind, I'll never become your wife, neither will I accept such a stupid condit
I am waiting?" Corey said. I looked at the faces of my parents, before responding, "fine, I accept, I'll get married to you,". Dad immediately rebuked, " no! You can't do that,"."Dear, Please reconsider,". Mom said as well.Corey however didn't care what they said. He finally takes away the gun and before leaving he turns to my family and said."You're lucky tonight, but don't forget, I'll be back for you, my dear,". Corey winked at me before disappearing from our eyes... Immediately the door shuts, and dad ran off to the door, he locked it, confronting me. "You shouldn't have accepted Muna," dad complained.Like what the heck does he want?. I had no choice, it was either I see my parents die before my eyes or accept to marry a monster like Corey."Dear! Please no need to dwell on this, we should at least find a way to save our child from getting married to a man like Corey,". Says mom. She turns around and faced me. ", Muna, I need you to promise me, and no matter what, you'll n
The next morning. After the whole Corey episode, both my parents were still paranoid. I came downstairs for breakfast. Mom walks out of the kitchen holding a bowl of hot soup. However, the second a bang on the door came. She unnerves and accidentally sent the entire soup to the ground.Out of fear."Mom?". I called staring at her facial expression.She faced the door and ran over to meet dad.Dad looks at me, "dear, can you go check who's at the door?". He whispered to me."Seriously!", I said back."Please baby, huh!". Said mom, holding unto dad's favorite polo shirt."Fine, let me go check,". I inhaled and said.I stood up from my chair, navigating towards the front door.I came closer and yelled."Who is it?". . I faced my parents for a while, they were both freaked out of their minds, when a familiar voice yelled right back."Muna! Get the door open, please,".. Sara, my best friend, said.Upon hearing her voice, my parents calmed down, I did too.Even though I didn't quite show
Sara and I got inside.I would have suspected that maybe there was a fight going on, but the minute we step ahead to see what was happening.I came facing a huge shock.My photo was being disturbed around, the cafeteria with the headline that says, Corey fiancee to be.What the heck?...Sara picks up one of the flyers with my face on it and pasted it directly to me, "what Is this?, And who's Corey, and who's his fiancee?, Are you about to get married?"...She questioned me.I stared at her, after taking off the flyer away from blocking my face."You'll not understand, trust me,"... I said, and angrily walked away, however before leaving, I practically dragged the entire flyers away from the table and dashed off.I picked up my phone to call dad.Unfortunately, he didn't pick up.The flyers in my hand had a return address.Immediately I went out of college and went to the printing press for serious questioning.I got there after some time."Good morning ma'am, how may I be of help to
A few hours drive, the cab stopped by a huge mansion.He rugs head back to the passenger's seat and said, "Ma'am, we are here?".I tilted my head down a little and noticed a huge golden gate mounted at the front I got down from the cab after paying for the fare and slowly walked toward the gate.A man stopped me the second I walked inside the huge mansion."Hey! Who're you looking for?". He asks.I stared behind and a man holding a loaded rifle stared coldly at me."Hello, is your boss, Corey inside?". I asked."Why are you looking for my boss and who are you again?", He asked, repeating his exact words...I rolled my eyes...I can't be doing this with him."Sir, can you go in and call Corey outside, tell him that Muna Daniels, daughter of Mr. Naunan Daniels is outside waiting for him,"... I raged up my voice a little.The man takes a hand pressing his gun.I thought he was going to use that on me, however, he rolls his eyes and left to inform his boss inside.I waited outside, look

I walked her to the door Of her bedroom.."Goodnight ". She smiled and then turned her head, and opened her door. I was just leaving then she called me back.." Hold on, munory". She said."Yes!"
The next day felt like a delight. I woke up having to feel butterflies inside of my stomach, the joyous expression on my face and behaviour was so evident that Sara and my grandma had a lot of questions.."Munory, did something good happen last night?" Grandma asked me and I know that she was referring to my conversation with Kiki. "Nothing, happened". I sat down for breakfast and shortly after Kiki came downstairs. I thought she was going to join us at the table, however, she had an appointment that needed her attention. Grandma wanted me to accompany her but she preferred to go alone which to me was suspicious..I acted not to notice but deep down, I was dying to walk her to the door. I had nothing to do and so I decided to make a phonecall to her, Kiki's phone rang but she didn't pick up, I called the second time and when she had refused to pick up, I stoped myself from calling again..The entire day, I patiently waited for her to come home, Grandma left for a meeting, however b
After my conversation with grandma I went back to the room and retired for the day. The following morning, It was weekend and so there wasn't any need to wake up early, Kiki was still in her room when I passed by there and was heading to the kitchen.."Good morning, Mrs Sara". I grabbed a bowl and a cartoon of cereal with a glass of milk.."Good morning, I can see that you're Very hungry". She removed the Pancakes from the frying pan and smiled. "Yes , I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse". I joked , despite being so hungry.I had the bowl of cereal when Kiki came inside the kitchen, she was leaving for a jog and immediately I recalled Grandma warning from last night."Good morning, may I join you?". I set the bowl of cereal aside and then asked her. "Sure, I'll be waiting outside". She smiled and left.I had to pour away the remaining cereal which was left in the bowl and then went up to my bedroom, changed and came downstairs.."Let's go". Kiki waited by door. "Sure". She grin
I tried everything not to come near Kiki, but the more I forced myself, the difficult it became."Bro, aren't you coming for practice?". Gerardo, one of the basketball players stopped me from leaving the school. I couldn't just leave anymore and so I went back and headed for practice.."Munory, I've missed you, mehn!". Another of my teammate approached me, Frank , was his name. He had a strong icy feeling as if he had just come out from the cool room ."Thanks man," I thanked him and then went to change out of my clothes and my uniform.I came back some time later and began my practice with the team, we were slowly getting the hang of our practices, but everything changed when the cheer squad came out with their uniform and cheer with us ."Aww! So cute". Gerald grabbed the ball from my hand Andrew left.He had always been known as the womanizer, Someone that takes pleasure in making sure that he takes what is his Practice was done at least by two hours later, I couldn't change ou
Kiki and I met in school the following day, and as promised she brought the few documents which she could find, and said that the rest were locked up in a safe by Mr Kent..."Thank you" I said and left after showing my appreciation.. I came home at the night and took the documents up to my bedroom, I wanted to check my out before sending them out to Grandma, I noticed that they were some documents to sign .I looked through them, making sure about it. Then shortly after, Grandma knocked on my door and then came in.."Son, are you okay?". She asked me.." What do you mean? I'm fine, I don't understand you?" I asked questions, waiting for her response..She giggled, came and sat down on the bed with me.."Munory, can I ask you a question?" She asked me."Sure! What is it?" I pushed the documents away as I asked her.."I want to have a word with Kiki, may I call her home?". She paused waiting to hear my response and as much as I wouldn't want her back here, She did fulfil the end of he
I was home but I couldn't stop thinking about kiki, though she lied to me it was because of her assistance that I was able to find out the truth, she had the chance to lie to me but she chose not to ."Good morning!'. I came to school the next morning and she approached my desk holding out a cup of latte in a cup.."Good morning, what do you want?" I took the cup from her hand , keeping it on the table .."I'm sorry, please don't be upset with me?"..She bowed down her head and whispered to me. I was just about to respond back when I got the news that Tina's dad had been arrested for smuggling illegal substances into the city."Did you do you forget?". I turned and confronted her.."Forget her? I don't understand?". She looked disturbed by my question.I wasn't going to yell and so I grabbed her hand and dragged her to the corner of the class. At the latest we'd be able to have a peaceful conversation without anyone paying hid to it.."Did you get Tina's dad arrested?". I rephrased
Mr Kent and my uncle Jason met at the restaurant and they started to talk, at the start, I thought there was going to be an Issue, nevertheless, Mr Kent and my uncle ended their business meeting in the same note.Uncle Jason promised to supply him with the needed Gun's he wanted and then I'd be the one to bring in the cash..Mr Kent and I came back , and we arrived right on time before his wife and daughter came home."Good afternoon Baby" Mr . Kent embraced his wife the moment she arrived with their daughter..Kiki instantly looked at me, her eyes twitching so impatiently to know what had happened from me. "Munory, Can I talk with you?". She grabbed my hand and pulled me inside other bedroom.."What happened? Why is my dad happy?"..She asked me questions which I do not have answers for.."I don't know how to tell you.... But something did happen?". I stopped talking as I watched her counterance change.."What happened?" She asked me, and I had no choice but tell her the truth,
The next morning, Kiki's dad asked me to accompany to a friends place, although I wasn't in the mood, it would've been disrespectful if I had refused going to visit his friend. We got there and it would appear that they were lot of people there, Mr. Kent asked us to go in and find a place to stay for sometime before going to say hello; to his friend.We came to the bartender, and he requested for a beer, hoping I'd join him, nevertheless this last time I had taken alcohol, I almost lost my mind.."Do you want ?" Mr Kent asked me."No! I'm good". I pulled the other bottle in his hand and then left.I had no Idea were I was heading too, and the hugeness made it impossible to find the way back, anyone can lost. "Corey, what are you doing here?".Tina saw me coming down from the stairs after parading the entire place , looking for a something important."Hey, I came with someone... What about you?" I asked her, staring back at her face confused."Oh! I live here, this is my dad's place
The following day, I had people looking round the mansion, I needed to be sure that there weren't any intruders that might cause harm to me or any person's working here. "Hey! Can we go?"..Kiki came down from the car in her flower dress, last night, I had promised that I'd go with her and her parents to their cabin, staying for the entire day. I didn't want to leaves since I couldn't find a way to connect to grandma, I had to employ Sara into tell her on my behalf and wouldn't be surprised if she'd advise me to stay more than one day "Yes, I'm coming" I grabbed my bags and had then taken to the back of the car and then left. Sara watched me as we left and waved at me. Two hours on the road, we finally had arrived at the cabin of Kiki's parents. They were excited to have me but it would seem like that wasn't the only reason.."Munory, please, take a walk with me!?"..Kiki's dad, Mr Kent spoke to me and I had to abandon my luggage with one of the helpers at the mansion ."Good e
