Dennis walked slowly but smartly towards a house down the street. He stood in front of a small cottage house and turned around taking In his environment. He put in his keys and turned it, giving him entrance into the verandah. He turned on the light to reveal dying plants on the porch and a dusty chair.He brought out another key for the main door, slotting it slowly as he opened the door swiftly and walked into the pitch black room. Being his house he navigated smoothly In the dark, turning on the switch to reveal an almost empty room. To Dennis it was minimal decoration with everything In gray color. It was a cold night as his windows were open with the breeze flapping his curtains.It was a cold night but Dennis' room was colder. He ignored the curtains and headed straight for the bathroom. Taking off his clothes, he wiped off the blood stains. He got into the bathtub and turned on the shower. As the water hit his body, the blood came off his skin and dripped down. He looked at t
“Murder?” She looked at him with confusion in her eyes, Dennis looked a mess which made her wonder what kind of trouble he put himself into this time.She adjusted herself on the chair, looking at him for a while trying to decipher if he had finally lost it.“What trouble have you put yourself into this time? And make it crystal clear, I do not like surprises in court.” She added, her short bangs hid her arched brows as she spoke to him. Dennis atod up, holding the glass of wine up in his hand, he looked dazzled for a minute before finally saying.“There's a lot of debt hanging on my neck and boy! It's not pleasant “ he stated, the look in his face was not definite, he turned to her, as she grabbed the files steady. Denis was kind of pissed just by staring at her saying nothing.“Debt? And how's that?” She asked, as she fell back to the couch, he didn't seem any much happier from the last time she was here.“This was all Elvis' plan all along. I didn't know he had the upper hand and
“Dennis!” Elvis called out looking shocked“What do you mean by taking care of Sonia?” He asked. Dennis looked at him unfazed as he ignored his shouting.“Do not ignore me, I ask again what do you mean by you taking care of Sonia, I hope you have done nothing to her?” He asked angrily as he pulled Dennis' shirt ruining the look.“Tell me something, Man. I want nothing but the truth from you” Dennis asked, looking at Elvis judiciously. He rolled the sleeves of his shirt and took a deep sigh. “Do you now care about Sonia?” He asked slowly, scrutinising Elvis' face. Elvis coughed out as he reached for his pocket grabbing a small towel. Dennis shook his head in disbelief as he spoke to him calmly “So you now care about a lady who betrayed you. Well that is completely your choice but I want to let you know I will do what I want to do” Dennis said with a sly grin which annoyed Elvis.“You know what, I suggest we find a place to go sit and have this discussion, ” Elvis suggested out of the
Sonia looked at him as she struggled to lift her eyelid. Freedom was something she wanted. Anything to get her away from Dennis. “Do not try to kill me with your eyes”’ Dennis said as he observed Sonia piercing him with her eyes. Sonia ignored him as she spat on the floor. Dennis felt his phone beep. “I will be right back” he said looking at Sonia as he walked out of the room. He opened the door which creaked loudly. He looked around before he reached his pocket slowly for his phone. He opened it to read the message. A smile slowly formed across Dennis' face. He turned backwards and bolted the door as he safely secured Sonia Inside.He walked away from the room back to the lonely road. The sky was cold as the clouds began to form. He walked deeper into the abandoned paths absorbing his surroundings, his ears alert. Dennis suddenly stopped in his tracks.He felt something was behind him. He turned his back slowly to see a small feline creature behind him. It was a pitch black cat.“H
As soon as Elvis and Sonia make their way out of the rat hole. Elvis brings Sonia down from his back, assisting her to walk. Dennis follows closely but overtakes them, vanishing out of sight. Once he dispersed. Sonia flings Elvis' hands away from her's. “Don't you act like this is a reunion, we are not alright or together. Remember!” She said with her demeanor changing. Elvis scoffed as he looked at Sarah from head to toe. Her hair looked like a sponge that was zapped with electricity, her neck was swollen with patches of red and pink. Her eyes were completely swollen and purple, her lips still had fresh blood on them. He shook his head as her dress which was once white looked like the rags used in cleaning public restrooms. Her skin had fresh wounds which Elvis guessed was from Dennis.Yet she had the audacity to speak to him roughly. Indeed Dennis took care of her like he said but he doubted it had any effect on her character.“Excuse me, are you aware you've been staring at me f
The look of despair was written all over her face, she stood there as his gaze pierced into her like a knife stab.She quickly hung up before Dennis would say anything implicating the turn of the phone as she swayed it behind her.Elvis eyes traveled to her hand she hid behind her,“What's that?” He asked, he knew how sneaky Sonia could be so there must be something she is hiding.“What are you doing here by the way?” She asked, her gaze hitting the walls of the room but scared to meet him.“This is my house so I believe I have as much right as you do to come in here.” He says. The look on his face was just blank.She cleared her throat, then stepped back, “it's no one.” She said then walked over to the other side of the bed, Elvis breathed as he said.“Dinner is ready. You should come eat and have this' ' he added, placing a bag on the bed, it was then she realized he brought her clothes.“Thanks a lot.” She said, walking over to take it. She looked in, it was a branded shirt and jea
“Why are you scared of him? I thought you loved him from the start.”Elvis said he didn't want to believe these two were not in talking terms.“Tell me the truth, You are still in communication with Dennis..isn't it?”“What? Huh? After all he did to me?’ she stepped back, looking at him in disbelief. If there was anything Soniawas good at it, it was manipulation Elvis looked at her, considering whether to believe her or not but this time he was not going to let his guard down like the first time.“Well, what do you know? This scenario is not new to use anymore, "he added.“Look, I know I hurt you in the past but I'm sorry, and I'm not asking you to get back together with me…No.” She paused then sighs before saying,“I just wanted you to give me a little more time. I know better than to do this but Dennis is a really scary person and I believe I would be safer if I'm here”. She said in the most softening voice she could find, the butler prayed hard for Elvis not to agree, but it see
……It was morning already. The sun escaped into the room through the curtains which were slightly open, casting its rays on her face and brightening the room a bit from before.She slowly got up, she didn't have the time to admire the room allocated to her but she could see the beauty of the room now, it was beautiful in the morning. The room was like a space of dim colors, it smelt clean, and serene enough for a well breathed air. The walls were perfectly painted, illuminating the combination of the pale blue and dark royal blue, the crisp brown table took the beauty to another level. She laid there in the sleek, and cozy duvet, stretching lazily as she swung her legs off the bed, she was barefooted, as her feet grazed the plush carpet.She glanced at the room, before walking into the all white bathroom, that she couldn't get enough of.She stood in the spacious shower, let the water wash the stress and renewed her for the day ahead.After the refreshing shower, she returned to t
