The next day, Leo couldn't go to the office. He had lost concentration, as the only thing on his mind was to bring Edwin down. He wore an ashed coloured jean trousers and jacket. The colour of the polo he wore inside, was blood and a mixture of the sun. In his spotless canvas, he sat relaxed in his sitting room, gazing at the silver framed rounded wall clock before him. When it was exactly 1pm, he stood up immediately, walked to his car slot, and sped off to Hard Rock Cafe. He arrived there at a half past 1pm. Not having the appetite for anything, he sat down there, waiting patiently for the arrival of Nurse Abigail. Forty-five minutes later, he became restless as there was still no sign of Nurse Abigail coming forth. "Did she just bring me out here to keep me waiting for the whole day?" He asked himself. He then took his mobile phone to call her line, but it wasn't connecting. He became vexed at that moment. His fingers struck lightly on the transparent glass table repeat

Immediately, the door barged open; as if fate had given her another chance.He quickly navigated the caress into an act of removing what seemed to have entered her eye. Abigail played along immediately; in as much as she would have reported him, she knows the consequences of her actions."What's going on here? Edwin demanded, with a surprised gaze at them."It's nothing sir, I.. I.. only helped her to re..remove what had fallen into her eye." The man stuttered."Yes.. yes," she nodded quickly; "it's not what you are thinking." She fidgeted.Edwin scanned her from head to toe with his eyes in total disgust."Then, why do you look so haggard if nothing had happened?" He questioned.She quickly buttoned up her shirt and pulled down her skirt. "I swear, nothing happened. I was just feeling hot that was why I had to dress this way; I only needed fresh air. We were discussing the upcoming project before an insect flew into my eye; he tried helping me out to remove it before you barged in o

Getting to Edwin's office, she took a deep breath and gave a gentle pound on the door before walking in.A great silence followed her as she entered. She was bewildered at how they stared quietly at her as she took some steps toward them."Good day, sir; you sent for me." She uttered nervously."You look edgy, hope you are okay?" Dr. Rey asked.She gave a hesitant glance at Edwin; trying to pinpoint if the question was an act of asking her to explain her actions. She had known Edwin to be a disciplined man; he had never hidden any injurious deed from Dr, Rey."Yes sir, I'm okay." She replied after much thought."Alright, you can have a seat then."

After the day's work, Abigail was on her way leaving when she met Mr. P who was preparing to leave as well. He was rooted at the sight of her coming forward, with his usual saccharine smile. Getting to where he stood, she spoke out; "So, I thought about it; and I have decided to give you what you are asking for." She pouted seductively. He was pleased hearing such from her; "So, what made you change your mind?" She caressed his chest up and down with the car key in her grip as she continued; "Well, I realized that the only way to take you off my neck totally is to give in to your request." "You indeed made the right choice." He said licking his upper lip in a klutzy manner. She gave a regale smile at him, blanketing the nauseation she had felt. "So, where do you want us to meet, then?" He questioned. Crossing her arms all over his shoulders, she replied; "I think your house will do." "Well…, I think it's a nice idea." He said after a little pondering. Shrugging his shoul

She sweated profusely as if she had run a marathon, not having a clue of what to do; She took the pen knife immediately and held it firmly as she tip-toed to the door. She quietly opened the door to stab him, but he swooped backward immediately and ran for his life. Then, it dawned on her that she was in for a deeper predicament. 'He will go and enlighten the corps and they will come after me.' she pondered. Slipping into her car, she sped off Immediately to God knows where; with blood stains plastered all over her. As if she had known, the corps zoomed in after she had left. They phoned the family of Mr. P and informed them about his demise. As sympathizers began mustering around, the corps crossed the compound with a ribbon. They took with them the pen knife, the wine glass; and other pieces of evidence they could lay hold of; including a picture of the scene.

"What are you doing here?" Mr. Kenneth asked with a thunderous voice.Edwin could see the fire in his eyes. Mr. Kenneth had never liked him, the sight of him around her daughter nauseated him.His gaze was so darkened as if Edwin was the devil himself. His adrenaline surged Immediately."Good day, sir." Edwin greeted."And what is good about the day?" He replied coldly."Where did you hide my daughter, you son of a nobody?"Edwin was bittered at his statement. He could see his heart dropping to the pit of his stomach. The fact that he hurls insults at him due to his financial status made his heart bleed, being much enlightened that his accusation was instigated by Leo.

It was a very large dilapidated hall that was stocked with numerous items including barrels of diesel, logs of wood, ancient furniture, and drums of soiled paints. At the several entrances to the large hall stood a rascally dressed man each with their pistol sunk into their back pocket. Their eyes were on alert for any incoming intruder. A sound of panic emanated from Angela and Margaret as they were unblind-folded; their hands and legs were still under the powers of the rope.
