Sam and the rest got to Jessicaʼs house and watched Mandy leave all dressed up for a party. Sam searches around the house for the cellar window and finds it. He wears his gloves and moves back to the front door as Mal follows. He applied some technicality while opening the front door as Mal pointed him a flashlight. He opened the door and they walked into the house pointing a flashlight. They move to the cellar cautiously flashing light from the window and then around the place. They checked for fingerprints and took the samples of what they saw.They searched further and found nothing more. Sam took the samples to his office while Lindsay and Mal returned home. He ran some checks and was able to identify some individuals. He prints out their photographs and leaves his office in a rush.................Jessica was still in a coma, No one knew what happened to her. She was lucky to have her child still kicking, but no one knew how long it would last seeing she was in a coma.Everyone
Maya was preparing for the season,she reminisced and relished the moments when she'd go on bus rides with Nicholas, she stood by her car for a while contemplating as she finally decided to take the bus.She boards a bus and takes a window seat, she leaned her head against it.she watched the busy roads without having to care how she'd make it through to work.yet she was in motion.Maya closed her eyes after she had fixed her earpods in both ears,she nodded her head slowly to its rhythms.Maya made a stop by the gift shop to get some gift cards to give her customers for the season. She picked the cards carefully as she smiled like a child. A Man though younger than she is stretches his hands over her as he helps her pick a card. He stared at it for a while allowing Maya to stare at him with her mouth slightly opened.He was talkative and had the perfect body.He wore a black shirt that revealed his just perfect abs. He wore a Jean and a long black coat with canvas to match. His medal dan
Lindsay's laughter echoed through the corridors as Mr Justin Graham got his fittings, she had never been this happy in a long while. They did a few colour pickings and matched each with a tie.She could wish it lasted for the entire year. Nicholas bought Lindsay a dress himself as she was too busy with the duties delegated to her. She was actively planning for the success of the dinner party and award giving night to best staffs shareholders and business partners."I've gotten Mr Justin Graham's tuxedo across to him, picked up the wines and met with the interior decorator_" Lindsay continued giving a long list of all she had accomplished.Nicholas turns to pick a bag from the rear as he holds it cross-checking it a bit then hands it to Lindsay." Okay," she said surprised."Who's the She I have to deliver this to?" She asked, smiling as if to tease Nicholas.Nicholas' thoughts drift to Elena a bit then he shakes his head as if to eradicate the name and person from his head . Lindsay st
The long wait was finally over, Lindsay wished Nicholas a merry Christmas as she went home. Nicholas drove home to meet Hannah and Andre decorating a tree. Andre's grandmother joined them and apologised on the behalf of his Aunt and Uncle who couldn't make it. And Mr Graham was there too.They sang beautiful songs at the tree's foot while eating cookies Hannah made. For some time it seemed interesting wearing matching PJ's and singing Christmas carols with his father, the women and Andre. Soon he felt lonely.He excused himself and picked his jacket, taking a small bottle of whiskey. He put it into his jacket as he strolled the quiet street in the cold night.Nicholas fought how he felt but it wouldn't leave him, he took shots of his whiskey while sitting on a park bench . He sat there for a while ignoring the cold."Hey," A lady said to him as she lit her cigarette. She wore police uniforms. "Care for a smoke?" She asked looking at Nicholas.Nicholas shakes his head refusing while he
Maya remained glued to a spot as Bryan stared at her, the stars twinkling above them. "I'm not going to kiss you, till you give me the permission to." He said in a husky voice still staring at Maya."I'll let you set the pace, cause I'm not thinking straight." She said as her heart raced she stared at Bryan.He bent over and kissed her like he had been waiting for a go ahead all the while. He drew her so close that there was no space between them. His hands strolled round her body. Then finally he breaks from the kiss to stare at Maya who's body ached and longed for more of him."Let's go somewhere else." He said as if reading her body language. Maya nods as he takes her out of the area to some quiet housing blocks. She held on to him as they entered his apartment. It wasn't elaborate but was quite furnished. He went to his fridge and brought out a bottle of water."Are you interested?" He asked to face her; he couldn't hold back what he felt and so did Maya. She felt ashamed but th
Lindsay and Mal walked into the house to meet Nicholas. He was holding a cup of tea. It was beginning to snow outside and the atmosphere was generally cold and pale. Nicholas smiled when he saw them. He watched them come into the house with a huge smile on his face. "Lindsay," he said. "What a pleasant surprise." He told her and she smiled back at him. So did Mal. "Hello Nicholas." She said to him as he offered them seats which they took. "How are you doing?" He asked her. "I'm good. " She said as she glanced at Mal. Mal walked towards where she was smiling at Nicholas. "Compliments of the season Nicholas." Mal said to him. Nicholas chuckled at that. "It is the season of yuletide." He responded with a nod. "What can I offer y'all? I've got coffee and hot chocolate." He offered and Lindsay smiled at that. "We're fine. " She said to her. "Cut the crap Lind," Nicholas said. "I insist. What would you like to take?" He asked them as he glanced from Mal to Lindsay. "We'll have cof
Nicholas repeatedly paced back and forth in his study, he was lost in thoughts. The warmness of the crackling fire was doing quite little in trying to thaw the chill he felt from his conversation with Lindsay and Mal only just moments ago. Right at that moment, mind was a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions, ones that he simply couldn't place a hold of or whatever it was that he had planned. Finally, as he found himself unable to contain his anxiety any longer, he grabbed his phone and dialled Lindsay’s number. He waited for the call to connect and when it did he let out a breath before he spoke."Lindsay?" Nicholas called as soon as she picked up. He tried his hardest to keep his voice calm, but the tension made him sound like a frantic little kid who was trying to ask his abusive parent for a Christmas present. Coincidentally, it was indeed Christmas and he was indeed asking her for something that would in some ways be beneficial to him. "Nicholas," she responded in a surprised v
That evening, Lindsay and Mal were having dinner when her phone buzzed. It was a message from Nicholas: Can we talk tomorrow? I want to make things right. His message read. When she read it, she rolled her eyes as she looked to Mal who was happily eating his meal without any cares in the world. Lindsay showed the message to Mal, who nodded approvingly. "That's good. Maybe he’s coming around." He said as he put some veggies into his mouth and began to munch away. Lindsay looked at Mal for a few moments before she let out a sigh. "I do hope so," she said, feeling a glimmer of hope. "I hate being at odds with him." She said, He was such a good person to her and she wouldn't appreciate it if what they shared was tainted for whatever reasons. They had their dinner and went to bed that night. Mal was okay with her going to see Nicholas. He was his friend too, but he wanted to see his girlfriend getting along with her employer and friend. After all, they both met and came to know each ot
