“Trust me? After all, we have been through,” he said with a slight rise in his voice. He gave little thought to his words before uttering them.Hank’s eyebrows creased into confusion, “We been through? What have we been through? I find it difficult to understand people like you who barely get out of their shells. Just because we planned an escape does not verify the existence of a ‘we’. It is only Me.” He took his legs off the table and walked toward Elijah, coming down to his ear level to drop a whisper, “There is no ‘we’, it is either the money or nothing.” A cold breath seethed through Elijah’s neck, as Hank’s whispers resonated like a church bell’ He’d thought Hank showed some kind of interest in becoming partners with him, rather than just the money he offered. His conscience forewarned him of the dangers of having to trust Hank a little, and at that point, he had to choose between trusting him again and taking his life in his hand. It was a matter of what next to do. Elija

“I have asked the wrong questions all theses while, thinking it was the right thing to do,” Daniel began his questioning, after noticing Elijah’s reluctance to bend to his wishes, “a wise man said, ‘only a fool will do the same thing over and over again while expecting a different result’, is it right or wrong?”Elijah remained silent, unsure of where Daniel was driving at. Just like before, he chose stealth over hastiness. “Am I a fool or what?” “If you call yourself one, then you definitely are,” Elijah muttered, letting the cat out of the bagDaniel responded with a light chuckle, and took another sip from his beer, “well, I am definitely one, I guess.”Elijah shrugged, making no comment on Daniel’s following words. Daniel rose to his feet, and traversed the four corners of the warehouse, and finally settled at the only window that provided illumination to the warehouse, aside from the light bulb hanging down the ceiling. As the rays of sunshine splashed on Daniel’s fa

Daniel chuckled sitting unfazed by what Hank had just said. He needed his answers and could only resort to means like this to get the truth from a lie. At its best, his plan could only enrage Hank, but not break him. “You idiot, I was just messing with your head a little,” Daniel said mid-laughter. He covered up his anger with laughter to blend in with the emotion of the moment., Hank leaned closer to him, giving Daniel deaf ears to his final show of surrender, “Don’t try it, because you won’t survive it. The shits I have in my head will suffocate if you even try to spend a minute there.,” he pinned his hand on Daniel’s chest. “Fine. I will see what I can do about it if only you would understand me and let us get going after we are done here.” Daniel yielded with a frown but was still adamant about not releasing Hank. Hank was starting to get disturbed and scared. ‘The police will be here soon.’ Hank thought to himself. He tried to control himself on who the police would

“You have to circulate the entire area right now,” Richard said with a touch of hurry in his voice, lockng eyes with the detective. “This is not your turf, tell me exactly what is going on or else none of my men will do nothing,” he answered, still remaining stubborn and unyielding with no sign of backing down.His words put Richard in an even more difficult position, as each second passing only spelt danger for Elijah. It only meant that his chance of redemption is sweeping past him faster than he could imagine. “You have to trust me, please.”He resorted to pleading if plain asking would not work out as he planned. However, sooner did his worst nightmare come upon him like a tsunami with no control. “Trust? Hell no!” the detective retorted with no time wasting, his upper lips curling into a sneering smile, “Let me ask you a question, Mr. Morgan,” he continued with his lips relaxed and his attention solely fixed on Richard in a sterner manner. “This is no time fo

“ What are you both doing here? They are looking for you? The police!” Cory said ,his voice very low and Hank held his hand dragging him to a dark corner where no one was going to see them.“ Who are all these policemen working for?” Hank threw the question at Cory but he avoided Hank's gaze which meant one thing; he knew something about what was happening since he was the one who kidnapped Elijah at first.“ I know nothing about it” Corry denied and Elijah sighed.If only Cory could tell them who the policemen were working with, it would be a great help to them.“ Just tell us who the fuck they are working with!” Hank was running out of patience. He just needed a way to survive all this problem so he couldn't help but raise his voice at Cory.“ Hey,” Elijah stepped in and held Hank's hand indicating he should step back which he did, his face looking pissed off.“ Hey Cory,” Elijah called, looking straight into Cory's eyes, though Cory tried avoiding his gaze.“ Just tell us who these
