He was a free man.Him, Cameroon River. The man who had allegedly murdered his friend and partner. The news flooded every news station, blog, internet, newspaper, and every form of media.Cameroon River was free. He was been released and all criminal records were been expunged. The state offered him an apology and cleared up his record. A clean state.Cameroon couldn’t explain what he felt the day he got the news. That he was free. He was happy, ecstatic even but there was numbness.Why? Because he found out that the closest people to him, had not only had an affair, they had also conspired to have him go to prison for a crime he did not commit. And not only that, Fred, his partner was actually alive!The level of betrayal he felt was unexplainable. It covered the joy he felt.He had trusted Fred. Had even believed Fred was dead. But to hear this? Now.He couldn’t place how it was he felt exactly.But one feeling

“Hi, Jake. Look who is here.” Vanessa almost shoved Elena into the office. Jake stood up as they entered. A big smile on his face like everything was fine and good in the world. Like there wasn’t any war going on in some part of the world. Or going through Elena’s head also.Because there was a war in her head. She was warring with herself.“Hi, Elena,” Jake said. And then he hugged her and planted a kiss on her forehead.“Hi, Jake. What a surprise. I wasn’t expecting you today.”“well, I’m sorry if I caught you unawares. I just needed to see you.”“okay. What’s up?” Elena set her bag down and sat opposite him. And Vanessa left them. She closed the door behind her as she left.“I got you something. Your favorites” he handed her a bouquet. Up until he passed them to her, she hadn’t taken note of them. She was still too preoccupied with the battle in her mind.“oh, thanks.” She took them from him.“Jake, why are you really here? In my office?” she asked

“Thanks for coming with me,” Elena said to Vanessa. They were going to see Elena’s doctor. Vanessa had insisted. To check out what was going on with Elena.They had agreed not to mention it to her parents. She didn’t want to get their hopes up.“you are welcome, Elena. I hope we get some good news.” Vanessa repliedThe good news to Elena was a relative term. What mattered as good news to her at that time was certainly going to be different from what Vanessa considered as good news.The doctor came in to attend to her and she did some scans and some evaluation. Then the doctor brought the two friends into her office.“from the look of things, you are okay. Everything is the same as the last time you came in. You said you can remember?” she asked Elena.“well, I see flashes. When I take a look at a photo or video from before the accident. But I don’t remember anything else.“that

Friday arrived.It was a date night for Elena and Cameroon. And the perfect night. The night was slightly chilly. And the wind was stronger than usual.Elena had spent most of her day in the office. Preoccupied with work. She had caught up on almost all the backlogs and was the only person still in the office. The last person to leave checked out an hour ago. Even the cleaning service had finished up for the day.But not Elena. She was still working. Elena wasn’t exactly a workaholic, but on this day, she simply wanted to pour out herself till she was empty. She had started out the day with a lot of backlogs.That was one of the reasons.And the other reason? She was distracting herself.From thinking about him. Not him, Cameroon. But him, Jake.She had tried so hard to sleep the previous night. But had ended up staying late till 4.00 am and she was up again at 7.00 am.She couldn’t stop her brai

Jake was in his home, alone in his thoughts. He had been binging on some movies the night before.It was a Friday night and he had wanted to talk to her. He had picked up his phone so many times but ended up putting it back down.He wanted her to come to him. He wanted her to choose him.And it was beginning to take forever. That made him sad. So he had sat in front of his TV, blocking everything out, and watched several shows till he fell asleep.He woke up the next morning, on his couch. He checked his phone first, no call had come in for him.Then he made his way to the bathroom. Before reaching the bathroom, his doorbell rang.His heartbeat surged.He guessed who it could be. He wasn’t expecting anyone and hadn’t made any orders.But he flung open the door.And there she was, Elena.He grinned. “come on in.” She accepted the invitation and stepped in. The smell of her perfume surrounded him as she came in. She clutched her bag li
