After they talked a bit more, she finally decided she wanted to close the bar. She wanted to pay attention to the matter at hand because if she was not careful she might just lose everything she had worked so hard for. “Moses, you are not even making any sense with what you are telling me. I’m trying to understand you but I’m not sure I want to right now. I think a lot has happened and you just need to relax, then maybe we can talk in the morning,” she said as they sat at one of the tables in the bar with two wine glasses and a wine bottle. He just took the wine glass and took a gap before saying anything. He had been thinking about this ever since they shot Trevor. Somehow everything stuck with him. “I’m trying not to think about it, Abigail. But what if I was wrong about everything? And I never wanted to hurt the man. All I wanted was to get the company and leave. I think we did go too far,” he explained and pulled wine in his wine glass. She didn’t say anything to him for a whol
“Eliza you need to leave. I will be with him and we can exchange because I also need some sleep. Also the police want to talk to you. If you don’t mind,” he said the last part with hesitation. She looked up at him from the couch where she sat. She looked messed up and up until now she hasn’t even changed or gone home. Her hair was still raffled, her face covered in dirt and blood. And her dress wasn’t making things any easier. She smiled at him, “Micheal I’m fine. You can leave and I will be with him. Just bring me some things I can change in. I will do everything here. People keep looking and the next person to do that I might just lose it.”“Think about the baby. You need to get some sleep. Trevor will be fine. And if anything happens I will call you right away. And the police?” He asked again. “Can it wait? I don’t think I want to talk to them right now. I need to think about everything and what to say. Those people can be a bit too much as you said.”“Sure. I will tell them you
He sat in the living room alone, trying to think of a better way to deal with what was happening in his life. Just when he thought he had done it and finally was leaving this life it turned out he was played. Knowing Trevor and what he had heard about him, he should have expected that but he thought because of Eliza Trevor was desperate and would do about anything without thinking, but he was proved wrong. The place was dim, the only source of light being a candle that sat on the table. The place didn’t look that bad though, but it didn’t look that good either. The man and his wife ran a bar and it seemed not to have been making a lot of money for them. All his life he wanted to get what his family had. He lived with his mother all his life and she never wanted him to do what he was doing. She tried by all means to keep him far away from Eliza’s family and their drama. But after the poor woman died, his mission had been to get back at the family and get what rightfully belonged to
“I don’t even know, Micheal. All I know is that they kidnapped my wife and wanted my company and money. Who they are and what motives they might have apart from wanting money from me and my company I have no idea,” Trevor explained finally sitting up straight on the bed. Micheal thought about it for a while then spoke, “we need to figure it out before they show up. They haven’t come yet and I’m sure they are planning something big. They have the papers and the money, they might be waiting for something big. I just don’t know what it is,” he said looking at Trevor. Trevor sighed and then smiled. “What?” Micheal asked. “I didn’t do it,” he said, looking away for a second before turning to look at him again. “What do you mean you didn’t do it? What didn’t you do?” He asked, looking at Trevor questionably. “I didn’t give them anything. I didn’t give up the money nor the company. Those papers were fake. And most of the money was fake as well,” he said but again added before Micheal c
After a while Micheal finally left and went home because he also wanted to get a shower and he had some things he needed to do for the company. And Trevor just told him that he needed him to be careful because none of them knew what those people would do next. “I was really scared when that man shot you, Trevor. I thought we have lost you,” she said, holding his hands. “I love you. And never do that ever again. Do I make myself clear?” She scolded and rested on his chest. He sighed and kissed her hair, “very clear.” Then he added as an afterthought, “where is Mubanga? She came to visit didn’t she? And does she know that I’m awake?” He asked. Eliza got up from his chest, “yes she knows. Trevor it was on the news and newspapers. Everyone in this city knows you, so she did find out about it. And I talked to her, she has been meaning to come and see you. Even when I was coming here she called me to say that she would come. It’s just that she has been the one running the company. Holdi
“Mr. Mwansa, we need to find those people. We can’t just leave them after they kidnapped one of the richest people in the city. Try to remember anything about them sir, please,” a police officer asked with his note book in his hands. Trevor thought about everything for a while, but nothing. All he could remember was that the man was tall and well built. Anything other than that he didn’t know. And that the man seemed to have been forced to do what he was doing. He didn’t remember anything else about the people that kidnapped his wife. “I have already told you what I know about those people. I didn’t see them clearly. I went there during the night and that too in the forest. The only source of light there was the moon. I’m sorry, but there is nothing I remember,” he said, holding Eliza’s hand even more tightly. “And you miss,” he said, turning to look at Eliza. “Did you ever see the people that kidnapped you? Your husband speaks of a woman? But when we talked earlier you didn’t men
“What are you planning to do Moses? It has been weeks and you haven’t said anything about what happened. We can’t just let them get away with this because you can’t think straight. What should we do?” She asked as she walked to sit next to him. “I love you and I don’t want to force you to do things. But I’m just willing to do more for my kids. They can’t come into this world without us doing something about their lives. We can’t even take care of ourselves, how will we take care of our kids? You wanted one, didn't you?” She asked, playing with his hands. He just smiled at her and looked down again. He didn’t know what to do or say. He thought about what would happen but nothing came to him. He knew he had to do something about this. He knew if he didn’t act smart and listen to his wife it won’t be things at his place. He loved her and wanted to do what she told him. But what could he do about what happened? He didn’t want to do something that would upset his mother. His mother neve
“Finally, you are leaving this place brother-in-law,” Mateo said as he helped Trevor out of bed. “You know, I knew you were going to be fine. I knew she was stressed for no reason. I know how stubborn you can be. You made our lives hell with grandfather. And that's all because of your stubbornness, brother,” he said, smiling at his sister. “See, your husband is fine.” They just smiled at him as well. He was happy to see that Mateo was here to help. Something about him being here just made things that were going through his head easier for him. And that he had someone in Eliza’s family might be good.But also because he wanted to prove to himself that none of them were involved in his wife’s kidnapping. That was all he wanted and he was happy to find out none of his family members were involved. But again, thinking about everything and what kind of people his in-laws are, they can do anything for money and pretend as if nothing bad happened. But kidnapping the daughter of the family
