Epic 48.After I finished dressing Lisa for the day, I had my shower, while having dinma help me out in sorting out the best wear for the outing. I didn't know how I felt initially, but when I got into the car and promised Lisa who almost started crying that I was going to get her a gift, Everything felt different and relaxing as Leo drove me around the city of Lagos.“So, where would you like us to go?”. He said as I looked at him blushing.“What do you want me to say? It was all your idea, isn't it? So... You should be the one to make a better suggestion, to where you find convenient enough”. I said as he started humming.“Mmm... Where should we go, where should we go...?”. He kept saying while tapping his hands on his car. “Yep! I think I have an idea of where we are going to go?”. He said as I still kept smiling at him.“It's your day, so... Do as you wish”. I said, smiling at him.“Sure. Thanks”. He said as I watched him drive while feeding my eyes on things that were around.“W
Epic 49We got home while preparing for Andrew's arrival. Leo and I already bought some sleeping pills for him. I had to sprinkle a little in Lisa's food so that she would doze off and not spoil the plan. While I hid in the secret room, immediately Leo gave me a sign that he was around. The Andrew dude looked more like a ruthless criminal. He was all dressed in black, with his face cap which he later removed, when he was exchanging greetings with Leo. While I hid and enjoyed their conversation flow, Leo decided to offer him something to eat, before they could go into the business. But he stopped taking anything. After a long while of Leo mapping out his framed plan, he requested water, which Leo didn't hesitate to give him. Unknown to him, his water has already been drugged, after some time of drinking it, he dozed off and we immediately tied him up.When he woke up, he was still trying to recover from what was going on, as his vision was still blurred.“Leo”. He whispered after he
Epic 50I was so cold until we got home. “Sister, Hope you are fine?”. Dinma had said immediately after we came down from the car.“Yeah, where is Lisa? Have you finished packing our bags?”. I said as she nodded her head.“What about him? did he make any silly noise?”. I said while shuffling my head toward the direction where Andrew was kept.“Not really, only when he complained about being tasty”“And...?!”. I said while giving Dinma a curious look.“Nothing happened”. Dinma said, shaking her head.“Nothing happened, as in, you didn't give him the water, or did you?”. I said, trying to clarify my intuition.“I didn't, Of course, I am a grown up. You didn't think I would make him see me, or did you?”. She said smiling.“You never can tell, you may just act out of sympathy”. I mumbled before going inside.~~~~Fast forwarding to the early hours on Friday, as the day went as usual, how it should have gone. Our luggage was already ready, and we were ready to set off to Abuja. “What abo
Epic 51I was set to leave the house, I had to sneak out on Lisa. With the mini bag which I was carrying. I managed to hang around the police station, till around midnight, when I sighted my mother's car. I had to hide to avoid being seen by hair. I was right, after all, she is going to attack today. While I was still observing her, I noticed she brought out something. She threw it out of her car immediately. I didn't realize too quickly that it was tear gas. I almost got myself choked to death. Before I covered my nose with the little oxygen inhaler that I was with. After some time, While I still had her observed, almost all the police officers began to scamper for their lives. That was when she stepped out, walking majestically with her face all masked up. I needed to trace the prison Micheal was in. But realized I wasn't with the map, so immediately I dipped my hand into my pocket. Without wasting any time, I had to run ahead of her, even though I was super careful so that she doe
Epic 52It wasn't an easy plan to relocate to another place. I couldn't even visit Michael as my whole body was just paining me. “Do you think she is going to attack Michael today?”. I whispered to Leo, on our way to the new flat.“I can't tell. I believe you know her better. But, left for me. I would rather have us attack first, and save Michael. Because if we keep watching out for her, the day she will finally attack, I doubt that day ever coming. Who knows, she might even attack during the daytime. Possibly, send someone to execute the plan for her”. He mumbled.“Hmm! So... When do you think will be best, for us to attack?”. “I can not tell for now, because we are not yet armed. We will have to set out our plans so that our plan will go smoothly”. He said as I nodded my head.“You have an idea. We should attack tomorrow”. I said as he looked at me surprised.“Tomorrow?! Isn't that too early?”. He said as I looked at him confused.“I thought you were making suggestions about us le
Epic 53While I went home to protect my family, Leo stayed behind, to save Leo.I was so scared, as I drove down the lonely streets of Abuja, till I got home.There she was, the little witch. “What do you want this time? What are you doing in my home?”. I said as she started laughing.“Home?!!! The last time I checked, you were based in Lagos. What are you doing in Abuja?”. She said looking surprised.“Whatever it is that I am doing in Abuja, is none of your business. Please, leave my home”. I said angrily.“Really?! You shouldn't sound harsh. Well, you aren't educated, so... What was I expecting?”. She said, giggling.“Well, I only came to say hello, I got the news that I now have a new neighbor. Who could have known, that it would be you”. She said while gently clapping her hands, in shock.“Neighbor?!”. I said even more surprised.“Surprising right?! Well, I am glad I got you that expression”. She said laughing.“Neighbour or not, I want you to leave my house. Besides, who visits s
Epic 54“What did he say?”. Leo asked immediately after I came out of the D.P.O's office. “He walked me out. I told you, didn't I? I told you she is working with them! They are all the same. Bunch of hooligans!”. I screamed out, as some of the police officers looked at me.“We will have to go to the state CID then”. Leo suggested.“Would he be better? They are all the same. Instead of wasting time, trying to find another useless solution I will rather go save my sister myself”. I said angrily“I know you are angry, but you have to calm down. Let's go to the state CID first”. Leo said as I just looked at him, and walked away.Slamming the car door, I was just furious. I was boiling in pain. I was so lost that I didn't notice Lisa who was crying until Leo came inside while looking at me surprised.“Lisa is crying”. He said as he tapped me. I had to jerk in shock.“You have to take things easy”. He said as I tried to make Lisa stop crying.“I think she is hungry”. He replied as I looked
Epic 55Just like I had expected, the prison got attacked, for the second time. I was just smiling all through. “Did you hear the news?”. Leo said as he walked into the room, where I was just seated.“Which one in particular?”. I said blushing.“The station attack or is there any other attack you know, that I am not aware of?”. He said as I started laughing “Of course not, well, I did hear of the news, could there be a little spice to the one I heard already”. “Nothing really, just the normal story that the prisons got attacked and I didn't seem to get into details, how it happened”. He said before my phone started ringing.“Who is that?”. I said while looking at Leo, as my phone was beside him.“Unknown”. He said.“Ow!”, I said, while going to take the phone.“Hello!”. I said as I picked up the call.“Hello! Is this Mrs. Angel? The wife of Mr.Leo...?”. The caller said as I looked at my phone's screen.“Yes, I am Mrs. Angel and you are?”. I said, a bit mean.“I am Mr. Bayomi, the
