EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI turned the ignition on then turned the steering with my other hand.“Are you sure you can drive in this stare of yours or should I take over?” Tony asked on seeing my struggle trying to navigate through with my injured arm.“Oh, do not bother. It is nothing.” I said as I tried to get the right gear and control the steering at the same time but my left arm which suffered the gunshot injury felt too heavy to move. I had no choice but to switch seats with Tony and get in the front passenger’s seat.“You need medical attention immediately. We are heading to the hospital first before anything.” He said as he successfully made U-turn and headed back the way home. I rested my head on the seat rest then turned my neck to check Smart and Taylor seated at the back. Taylor looked lost. I felt pity for him that instance because he had no idea yet that his brother was dead.We got to the hospital in no time. We took Taylor in to get checked up and admitted in
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI stood up then looked at everyone, “It is sad that we all have to gather here today to discuss Thomas’ demise and his funeral. I still find it unbelievable myself. We might not have the beat of relationship but he was family still hence why I am not backing off in the quest for revenge on whoever did this.” They murmured but I continued, “Yes, I believe that Thomas did not die a natural death even though he had been in coma for a while now. This morning, my friend and the rest including myself had to go rescue Taylor. He was kidnapped last night at the sacred house after the full moon night procession.” They looked shocked.“Where is he? Where is my son?” Thomas’ mother flew up from her seat as he came over to me and shook me as if she could shake some response from me. Her husband disentangled her from me and it was a hassle. I never knew she still had such energy in her despite that she was looking ghost few moments ago.“He is completely fine. H
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI left the ward and walked to the garage with Tony. We ran into the chief security.“Hey, I already went to the conference room to check you but you were not in. I heard the Robinson’s had a little meeting in there.” He said.“Yes, I left the meeting not too long ago to check on Taylor.” I said.“Oh, how is he fairing now? Nothing too serious, right?” He asked showing concern.“Yes, I guess. They just broke the news of Thomas’ death to him. They were inseparable. I can not imagine how he feels right now, which is why I have to get to the bottom of this.” I said“I think the doctors are hiding something. I just checked the footage but something seems fishy.” He said suspiciously.“Fishy how do you mean?” I asked.“Some of the footages are missing. Early hours of dawn which is very close to the estimated hour of death announced for Thomas. You know I am invested in the Robinson’s family. I have been with Pa Robinson for over a decade and I feel more l
WILLIAMS’ FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI stayed in my hiding spot until they had all left. When I was sure they were gone, I got out then went further down in the street. There were abandoned houses all scattered around but I had not gotten to the one that fitted Sniper’s description. I saw some crowd of women and children in front of one but they all ran inside on seeing me then shut the door. I felt they must have been traumatized with the fight that would have ensued between Edward’s men and Sniper’s men. I did not bother finding out what scared them but headed to the building to give Sniper a piece of my mind as I could not understand how he could allow them find out their hideout not to talk of rescuing the hostage. A car drove to the building as I got to the gate and knocked. I almost tried running off thinking it was some of Edward’s men who were back to finish off whatever it was they could not earlier. Only for Sniper to alight from the car. I removed my disguises and called o
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“What is that supposed to mean?” I asked getting furious. I shoved him aside to check for myself then I found out that truly, the folder for that particular night was missing while the others were there. “How is this possible?” I asked fuming.“Erm… sir… I have no idea how this came to be. I am not in charge of collecting data.” The older one stuttered obviously terrified of my anger.“Are you not in charge of everything that happens here? How come you do not know? And you.” I pointed to the other man, “do you also not know anything about this?” I asked him.“He is actually the one in charge of collating the footages in folders on the system.” He said.“Wow, really. Young man, can you explain what is going on here?” I sat and leaned back on the seat I was earlier. “I did not delete any folder. I have not done anything on the system other than retrieve a copy of it and submit it to the head doctor.” He explained in a shaky voice.“The two people he
MR WILLIAMS’ FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“Yes, that is right. It was a disaster.” I began. “To cut the long story short, my car got stolen and they got to the boy this stupid Sniper and his boys kidnapped to give me a leverage over the Robinson’s.” I said.“Wow, that is crazy. How did your car get stolen? Did you not say it was around the outskirt of the city? No one literally lives in those areas talk more of anyone bold enough to steal such expensive car knowing fully well the owner would not let it go just like that without trying to track the thief.” She said.“You might be right but not if the thief might be Edward Robinson himself. I remembered parking behind an expensive truck and I knew for sure it was not Sniper’s because there was no way he would be able to afford that and not get the anti-crime on his tail only for me to return and both cars were gone. I ran into them while I was walking to the building so they are most likely the one who went away with it. It might even be
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWAfter a while, Dro’s call came in finally.“Hey, Dro man! It has been quite a well.” I said into the phone the moment he picked.“Who am I on to, please?” He said unenthusiastically from the other end.“Wow, you really did discard my contact after university?” I said feeling a little disappointed that he did not have my contact and also could not recognize my voice.“Edward! My man!! Of course, I was pulling your legs. If I lost your contact, I would never fail to recognize your customized baritone voice.” He said laughing out so loud on the other end.“Wow, you can have that one because it honestly got to me. How are you doing though? I can not believe I really had to wait that long to be able to speak with my old time buddy.” I said getting relieved he had not cut me off really.“Yo, my man. I was in a meeting with some experts from other countries. They had to fly in to do this so I could not pend at the moment. I am sorry about that. What does
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“In support of what?” She turned to me and asked in her cracked voice from excessive wailing.“The doctor said they will need the consent of the family to be able to conduct the autopsy. That was what he told me earlier. I already told him to continue with the process and we will deal with the consent when it is time. I doubt anyone will be against it though.” I said.“Of course, I support it. I need to know exactly what and who did that to him. He was not even a troublesome person. His only offence was being a Robinson.” She said and sniffled.“It is okay, Celestia. You can go home now. I will let you know everything that goes down tomorrow.” I said.“No, I want to witness it myself. I need to see how everything went down with my two eyes.” She refused.“Celestia, I understand that you are hurting right now and that your emotions are getting the better of you but it is already late. You have been in the hospital all day mourning him. It is time for
