REDUNDANT 23 Jack opened his eyes to the constant beeping he was hearing. His vision was blurry and he could barely see anything at first, but it cleared after a few seconds. He looked at what he could see, it seemed like an environment he had never seen before. He could see a white ceiling with mild light all over. And from where he laid, he could hear the constant beep of something from his side. He tried to raise up his hand but felt he some pains on wrist and that made him stop trying He slowly turned his head around and viewed where the sound was coming from. He saw some machines beside him of which he soon recognised it to be a heartbeat monitor. He saw a drip beside and realized it was that which caused him the pain in the hand when he tried to raise it up forcefully At that moment he realized where he was, IN A HOSPITAL. He wondered what he was doing there and what had brought him there. He looked back up and tri
THE MAN IN LOVE “ How are you feeling now Mr Jack?” The nurse asked with a smile. “ I'm okay now,” Jack responded. “ May I know your full name?” The nurse asked again. “ Jack, Jack McAllister,” Jack replied. “ Well, Mr McAllister, you are well now, we just need to give you some drugs for you to take and you will be okay. We just have to wait till the contents of the drip are all exhausted, then we can discharge you. In the meantime, you have to eat something. You have to eat something to gain some energy. You did not eat for the whole of yesterday. Your food will be in very soon” the nurse said. “ Yesterday? . I was brought here today. What do you mean yesterday?” Jack asked in surprise “ Well you were brought in at the same time yesterday after falling unconscious in the moving train. The lady here brought you in. You went into a state of unconsciousness for the whole day, and you only woke up previously around 9 pm yesternight” The nurse ex
IN FANTASIES Cont’d, from Chapter 18. Jack thought about the circumstances in which he met Jane, it was surely a coincidence, but not just a mere one. From the very first time he saw Jane when he was on the hospital bed, he had gotten a different thought. He wished he could have told her what he had seen, but it was just impossible. At that very moment, he looked at her in the hospital, his heart began racing for her. He fell in love with the girl at first sight. Regardless of the fact he was broken-hearted and pained by what he was going through at that time, coupled with the fact that he had just lost a chance to gain millions of dollars, he still felt calm when he saw JJane. A young and calm hearted young lady with a heart of gold. When she smiled at Jack, he just could not control his emotions. He remembered when he opened his eyes for the second time in the hospital, just before the nurse could
A LETTER TO HIM Thursday Morning, Jack’s Residence. Jack had woken up from sleep and was preparing to go look for Jane that day before going to work. He had no idea whatsoever whether or not he was going to find her, but he had high hopes and a great feeling that he was going to see her. He was already dressed up and was getting ready to leave. It was about 5:45 am, and Jack planned on driving through the ten minute journey to the subway and getting there around 6 am. He got into his car and drove off to the subway.

ANALYZE HIS PERSONALITY Thursday Morning, McAllister Mansion. George was sitting on a couch in his living room. A man stood in front of him with his hands behind him. George was giving the man some instructions as to what to do. The young man was seriously listening and nodding his head in affirmation. “ You have to get to work now. Remember if you are able to do your work, you will be given a hundred thousand dollars, and if you are not able to, you have your family at stake. Now just make sure they do not find out about you. Immediately everything is in motion and going as planned, just call me and I will handle the rest” George said to the young man. “ Okay sir.

I WILL COME FOR YOU George heaved a sigh after listening to his narration. “ So if you are going to settle on the last one, which is also valid, that means, we should be able to link it to a heist around the country anywhere within last week. If we are able to get any news of such, we might be able to get him audited” George said. Alfred nodded with a smile. “ Well, I will try my best, but I know very well that if indeed it was a heist, it would not be within last week, it would have been a very long time, and they have hid the money to this time.Beside his money is very huge as far as i can see. The very day I came back from the interview, I remember we planned on setting the place ablaze, and we actually did it. I was around and silently observing it when the firemen went to quench the fire.I saw Jack around but just after five minutes of being there and speaking to one fireman, he then left immediately. With his demeanor, he seemed not concerned with the whole thing. I tho
A NEW CUSTOMER Jack’s office, Thursday Afternoon. Jack was seated in his office, Jane was sitting right opposite her.. They had driven to the office and Jack had talked to her for some hours before they finally went out again. The company was working and all the workers had reported. He took Jane out and went to his house where she washed down. They then headed to the boutique where Jack went to get some new clothes for Jane.

They were now cool and now all of them were okay, they had all let go of the past, and Jane had now come to accept the fact that Jack was a rich man and really owned the company. Jack had taken her around and showed her all the fields he had and the company’s warehouse where they refined, stored and sold the oil and its products. Jack had then told her something he wanted her to do for him. It was a part of his plans to take revenge on his fami
