“What is it John?” I asked.

"The doctors just told me it’s today.” He replied.

"What is today?” I asked with utter confusion.

"My son, my son’s surgery is today. I just received a call from my wife and she told me that the doctors just confirmed that they will be taking him in for the surgery, I am truly nervous.” John added.

"Today, wow, that’s fast. Don’t be scared, everything is going to be fine.” I added.

"I hope so but I am still so scared, I don’t think I can handle it alone. I feel scared and you are the only person I had told what I was going through who I feel I can turn to for help, can you please come to the hospital this evening.” He added.

I was baffled by his request and at the same time I completely understood him. I had a lot to do today but instead I am at a party.

I didn’t really want to be here, I was just here for Sarah and on the other hand I have to catch up with the investigations of Pain’s sister kidnapping, it was just crazy.

Then I started to scout th

    The Lotus Group had two faces, first the face they show to the outside world and the other one that can only be seen with an opened eye. In other words, they are the worst set of people to deal with because, many won’t be on your side.Trina and Pain had tied up the guy they had put in the trunk, under the garage of Trina’s house, they had also blind folded him. "Did you send the message to him?” Pain asked Trina. "Yes I just did, I hope he sees it on time, he might still be busy.” Trina replied. "Should we start?” Pain asked anxiously as the tension was getting to him. "Let’s wait for him, in the main time let me get my toy case ready just in case it's needed.” Trina replied as the man shook in fear. "This should not be too difficult.” Pain let out. I got to Sarah’s house, it was some minutes to 5pm in the evening. I carried her in as she still couldn’t walk properly. "What happened to her?” The head security asked. "I am fine, I just sprained my leg a little, so Tony is hel

    I called Trina several times but she wasn’t answering, I then decided to call Pain but he wasn’t answering either. I got to Trina’s house some minutes past 9pm. I knocked on the door upon my arrival and Trina opened up. "Tony, we were waiting for you, what happened?” Trina asked. "You know what never mind, Pain is already trying to get him to talk, but I am afraid he will kill him.” Trina said, interrupting before I could respond. “I tried to tell Pain to calm down, but he beat the guy into a pulp and I doubt the guy can even talk properly.” Trina added."Where are they now?” I asked a little bit out of breath. Trina led me to her garage and I saw Pain holding a hammer and nail. "Now look, you still don’t want to talk, I will nail your hand to this table if you don’t tell me where they are keeping the girls!” Pain shouted. The guy was already bleeding from the head and mouth, it looked like Pain had really beaten him up, Pain was so concentrated that he didn’t even realize when

    "Is there any problem ma’am?” Phillippe shouted. Trina turned and saw him, I knew he had seen her before but I hoped he wouldn’t recognise her. She was wearing a disguise but what if he still recognises her. "Are you deaf, I am asking you, what are you doing here?” He asked further. “I am just asking for directions sir, I am looking for my boyfriend’s house and he said it's somewhere around here.” Trina said, trying not to show fear and play the part good enough. "Well, does this place look like your boyfriend’s house? Didn’t they tell you not to wonder about a street alone? You are so young and pretty, are you alone?” Phillippe asked, looking around if anyone was there. He started to lean forward towards Trina, Trina moved backwards acting shy and naïve. "Yes sir I am alone; I don’t know if I will ever find my boyfriend's house now.” She added. "It’s, ok it's ok, just come with us, we will take care of you till tomorrow then you can go back home once it's dawn." Trina knew th

    Phillippe stared at me in shock. "You again, what are you doing here?” Philippe shouted angrily. “I see now, now I know why that girl looked familiar, she was with you that day wasn’t she?” "Why are you guys always trying to ruin things for me, what does this even have to do with you?” He was irritated by the whole scenario. I remained silent looking at him disgusted. "What does this have to do with me? Taking innocent girls away from their homes and family, to sell to strangers who might use them as sex slaves, house maids and all sorts has nothing to do with me?” I asked, even more disgusted as he was trying to play innocent. "Is your family here? Are any of your relatives here? No, so what the heck is your problem? Do you think you can get me like you did the other time? Look, the other time I was not prepared but this time, you are outnumbered, just leave while you still can walk.” He said, smirking. I ran straight to him and landed a very big punch on his nose.

    I had the thought of picking my phone to dial Paula’s number. I should have really taken my own advice by not getting attached to anyone but what can I do in this case. I am not even this attached to my real family members, but John was really good to me when I was still Dumebi having not a single clue to who I was, if I had any family or where I came from. He was really there to help me through my difficult times with Uloma and her family, so why wouldn’t I do this much for him. I stopped hesitating and picked up my phone, I dialled Paula’s number and she responded quickly. "Hey Paula I am really sorry to disturb you but I really need to talk to you.” I said as I continued to drive back home. "What time would you be free, can you come to my house?” I added. "Is everything ok, this one that the great Tony needs my help?” "Please just come over and I will explain it to you.” I said and immediately hung up the call.Lizzy got to the office to realise that John was not there, she t

    The Boss asked, baffled."Wait, what? You mean the same person who ruined Miss Wellington’s operation also did this.?” "Yes sir.” Phillippe answered. The man got up with anger and slapped Phillippe. "How can you tell me that only two people were able to defeat all of you again for the second time?” Phillippe held the slapped face and muttered, "sir he is not an ordinary man; I am sure of it.” “I heard we kidnapped someone he knew, perhaps that was how he got to know about the operation, if not there is no way he could have figured it out, it was really coded and we made sure to get rid of any suspicion or threats.” Phillippe added. His boss went back to sit and pondered for a while. "Hmm, this man, this guy you say he is not ordinary, who is he?” His Boss asked, now interested in my identity. "Sir I am not really sure but I think I recall his name to be Tony.” Phillippe said with confidence in the information he just provided his boss. More questions poured in from his boss. "D

    I gazed at Paula as she gazed at me back, we both had a staring confrontation and there was silence. "You are not saying anything?” I wondered what was going on in her head. "What do you want me to say Tony?" “I know it might seem difficult, but what I am asking you is to save a life not to kill someone, and besides nobody needs to know anything." "I just want you alone to attend to him, that's all.” I added.Paula didn't look convinced with her continued stare. "What’s wrong?” I asked worried about how she looked. "Do you have his medical report? The hospital he was treated at? Are they ok with another Doctor taking over the treatment of their patient?” She inquired with the intention of dissuading me. "They did not exactly say that, but I could tell they had no care to whether George woke up or not, that was when I knew I had to take matters into my own hands.”Paula was looking convinced of my take but gave a clause condition. "Ok, then fine but I need the help of someone, I

    "Tony owns BRADON?” Mathilda asked. "Yes, don't you know? Anyways do you know anything more about Tony apart from the fact that he is friends with Mr. Wellington?” "Well not really, all I know is he is really strong, smart and very hardworking, why did you let such a great man go?" "Well you're at lost” Mathilda said. After all of these and the shocking revelation she had made Uloma started to feel something was wrong, she had realised that I wasn’t spending the money she thought I was. Back at the Lotus Group Goons base, Phillippe moved back and forth trying to understand how on earth he was going to get I and Trina. “The two of them are more dangerous than I thought, they have both ruined my operation twice now, they must pay for what they have done.” He exclaimed."I will have to find out who exactly both of them are, they might be working for some organisation or something.” He picked a picture of me and Trina and kept it on a board. “I won’t rest till the two of you are don

    I wanted to save his face the disgrace of his past life. I asked him to walk to the cafeteria while I follow him behind and he did as I commanded him. The cafeteria is a big one with so many serving tables here and there. Some of the costumers were eating some Kenyan delicacies and you needed to see how they were devouring the "sumptuous" meal. It had a good aroma that would cause anyone that is famished to salivate but this wasn't the time to try their food. Douglas and I had something important to discuss. We sat at the nearest serving table as I signaled the waiter to get us soft drinks. My kindness caused Douglas to fear the more. He thought I was doing him a favour that he would pay back in a thousand folds. But this wasn't so. He wasn't thinking well enough. I wanted to hear his story. Everything about him. The waiter had served us the drinks. It was enough to calm my nerves down. I gulped it as I was thirsty. Douglas felt very reluctant to take his drink. But I asked him to tak

    I wasn't too sure if the idea of naming the child George was a good one. How will John and his wife take it? Will they be happy about it? Will I be mocking them with the name? I hope my son will not die prematurely like the late George? My mind was preoccupied with these thoughts so I had to relax for a while. When there wasn't any other name that my heart desired, we named the child George. Sometimes, our fears only threatens us but if we shun the threat, we would be heading for success. The christening was a success and to my greatest surprise, John and his wife were happy about it. The way they snuggled the child in their arms read a million meanings. Lyda said that he looked like George during his days as a toddler. She smiled and hoped that he lived long. Thank Goodness I didn't change the name.

    Maggie and I were having all the fun in this world. It was just she and I. No disturbance. I kept the news of Mama's death at the back of my memory. I wouldn't let it interfere with the nice time I was having with the love of my life. The wailing was for Uloma and Lizzy to do. I wailed enough while she was alive. Even in her wickedness, I loved her. I hope that her soul find rest in heaven or wherever! It's God's choice not mine. It was the first time Maggie had a sexual experience. She was a virgin. No one would believe she was because she was a full grown up lady. All through her years with Malid, they maintained "sexual distancing". Malid must have his own good sides too. Waiting till after marriage before such an experience must have come with a lot of patience. But maybe he wasn't patient enough so he loose his girl and not only his girl, but now, his life. I wonder what explanation he was going to give his creator for taking the life that was given to him on a platter of gold. I

    Chapter 224: Farewell to a Miserable Life

    In as much as we all enjoy peace, no one desires an eternal peace or say rest. But this wasn't the case for Mama - Uloma's mother. She desired death even though her children rebuked her severally. "Mama, don't say that!" "Mama, stop!!!" They cautioned. They warn her on a daily basis about her pessimism but she turned deaf to everything they ever said to her. She wanted a ticket to hell or wherever because life was teaching her hard lessons. She suffered from chronic fever, an illness one would consider "minor" or "ordinary" but it was getting worse by the day. There wasn't any kind of treatment Mama didn't receive. They did one thing or the other to ensure they meet up with the bills. They sold some of their properties and even their bodies for money to take good care of Mama. They went out of their comfort and did some menial jobs and secured something profitable for themselves. There was virtually nothing they didn't do. But their efforts were not amounting to any positive result.

    I danced David's dance at the reception of my wedding. We were so elated and fulfilled. I now had a woman I could call mine with confidence. Friends and family joined in our dance. The bridal train were not left out too. The songs were so melodious. I mean, it was remedy for any broken heart. The musical instruments synchronized without any flop and we were just taking different steps - from left to right. We heard of the tragedy. It was as though we didn't hear the right thing. But it was true. Zero lies. It was so pathetic - the untimely death of Malid. No one could have thought that he would kick the bucket so quickly with the life of wealth he lived in. It was no news that he killed himself with poison right inside his room. He just wasted his life for nothing. He threw his poor family into mourning and complete bitterness. They hearts were heavier than the stone that was used to cover Jesus' tomb. The rumor was all around the place. It was everywhere that the founder of El-Tech c

    Nobody would believe that I "snatched" Maggie from him. After all, I didn't do that. She simply got too tired of him so she "kicked" him out of her life and will not allow him back. Thank God for Thunder who stopped him right at the gate perhaps he would have done something worst. He was such an animal. I think God assigned some angels to create him and that day, they were too tired to add a pitch of calmness in him. He just liked to burn everywhere he is found. But the fire from a lantern is not same as the one that erupts from a cooking gas. Thunder's punches were enough lessons for him and a warning never to thread the path of lions like us. Malid got home badly injured. He collapsed on his couch in tears. He had sacked all his staff and some of them resigned because they could no longer be patient with him. He was acting like a demigod and they wouldn't let another man trample on them like a snake Malid hates to see. He was growing more wild by the day so they all had to leave him

    Chapter 221: No way!

    I think Maggie is truly the divine woman made for me because for the first time in my entire life, I felt truly loved by a woman. I was betrothed to Uloma by her father who considered me a responsible man. He was sure that I was going to take good care of his daughter because of the traits I displayed during my stay at his house. I felt like I was marrying my step sister even though we were not in anyway related by blood. This was his death wish so I decided to honour the poor man. But one of the lessons I have learnt in life is never to marry a man or a woman in pity. I had compassion for Uloma and her family especially after the demise of their lovely father. So I married her but I regretted it quite too early. I wonder how Uloma, Lizzy and Mama coped with a man whose spirit provoked their demons. He was just one of a kind. A complete father and an epitome of love. I mean, he took me in without knowing a thing about me. Just assumptions and the fact that I was a human being as him.

    Chapter 220: Shall We?

    Now I had to tell Maggie the story of my life to clear the air. She kept asking too many questions and I couldn't deny her the right answers because she was now very dear to my heart. I mean, can one withhold the truth about the colour of one's skin from one's buttocks? That would be eating beans with the eyes. Maggie was pensive when we got home. It was as though she had just finished watching a Hollywood movie but this time, she didn't watch it on screen but on set! She was amazed to see me take them down, one by one, as if I had prepared for the attack. I didn't prepare for anything but that sharp thought that flashed through my mind was enough to sense something. I usually had such a feeling when something goes wrong. My demons were never asleep. They kept on knocking the door of my heart until it dawn on me that there was something wrong about the route we were taking. I told Maggie about the Dark Dragons something I never mentioned to Uloma. Paula knew about it of course, because

    It is true that once a soldier, always a soldier. But I also think once a fool is always a fool or maybe... Once a culprit, is always a culprit! Malid was at it again. His usual display of foolishness. I called it "foolishness" because he thinks he can play smart and get me tied to his trap. Me? What a dream! Malid couldn't sleep well. Of course, he wouldn't have. He was dreaming of the impossible. So how possible was it for him to find sleep? Sweet sleep are for those who have laboured in truth. Not some evildoers like Malid! I sensed it from the smile, the handshake, the gestures, uneasiness, friendliness, useless talks... everything! I knew he was surely up to something. Can I ever forget Aunty Raina? Even if she belongs to the family of evil-doers with Malid as the head. She would say; "a rat does not run in daylight for nothing. He must have seen a cat or something." Malid is the rat here but instead of staying clear, the idiot remains adamant, like a forgotten morsel of pounded
