"Who sent you?" The old woman questioned as she studied Xavier uneased posture. He kept staring at the pavement as though looking for something."Ma...?" He replied pissed off. It was hard for him to lie to an elderly person."Yes am a non-governmental organisation in search of skillful women like you" He repeated as he grapped the glass of juice that sat on the table between him and the woman."Why do you keep staring at my pavement?" She questioned as she scroll down the ID card Xavier handed to her which had his information. Xavier could feel sweat trickling down through his back. This woman was more like a detective. He wondered how Alex fell in love with her or was she something else to him? It was hard convincing this woman to accept his money however he succeeded.He waved at the old woman who smiled back and waved till he entered his car.The little time she spent with this man gave her hope that she could be remembered even by someone who didn't know her much. she had told her
The cool breeze swept across every street reminding them of the season. Alex sat on the dinning waiting for the president to appear. He gazed at the building which was large for an extended family house but rather he housed only two beings. Most of the walls were made of glass. He looked at the beautiful decorations and was pleased with arrangements. He heard footsteps and he Rose up to honor the president but it was Natalie who stood by the stairs. She eyed him and walked up to him."What brings you here" she questioned but he didn't reply."You are at my house okay" she pressed on sitting close to him as she pinned her fingers together in anticipation of a reply but he was mute. She gave up trying to talk to him. He always acted all serious and mean towards her. "Don't just forget about the surgery tonight" she reminded as she ordered the house maid to serve the meal."I wondered how you deceived the old man into believing you" she whispered knowing fully well he was going to switc
"I can do this alone" she pressed on folding her arms but she knew she was praying hard for him to come along."Okay I will be heading home I think my shift is over" Alex snapped as he glanced at his watch. He was used to that. Sometimes, tochee calls him time keeper."I'm heading to the laboratory... If you don't mind..." She paused and folded her lips. What was she saying? Wasn't she the one who claimed she could do it alone."You were saying?" Alex asked as he noticed her legs moving left and right like a chorister."Don't act like you didn't hear" she retort. Couldn't he understand that ladies had their own pride."Well I need to consider first" he replied rubbing his head softly as she gave him a frown. Lucy had sighted this two and was surprised to see Natalie at the hospital around that time."What brings the queen bee here by this hour?" Lucy asked walking towards them and waved at Natalie."Is it wrong for a doctor to come around when patient's life is involved?" Alex questio
Rodger grew furious, how could Natalie trust someone so blindly? When Natalie left, he walked up to Lucy who was silent. He the bar rod and tried to assure her she would be released soon. Her silence always meant something. She wanted to ask who was going to take the blame? But he had already gone. She was behind the protest along with Xavier. She only did that to reduce the pride of this hospital which had so many foes. In her thought, Xavier bashed in to meet her. She was pleased to see him again. Surely he must have something now to bring her out."How are you doing today" she asked in a low tone."Not good..." He paused and scoffed."Why should you ask such when you Know am worried" he muttered as he curb her palms in his. She smiled."It's taking a little longer" she said annoyed."It's still noon you will be out before evening crouches in" he assured and grinned."Seems you are enjoying it here since I haven't heard your protest against what you were accussed of" he teased as he
They arrived at a place where perhaps some of these drones might be found, it was like old times again, attempting to stop Felix and this time, Alex was doing it for good. Lucy got out first and survey the area if maybe it was clear which it was. Alex jumped down and handed her a gun."When will they get here?" He asked squinting his eyes around due to the smoke."It would take an hour, first let's save the world" she responded with a serious look that made him jest at her, she was acting like a captain who was ready to sweep off the enemy in one count and he was motivated by that. Lucy placed an earpod on and quickly brought out a laptop from the bag she hung. Her eyes searched for the locations of where the drones were when Alex could hear people screaming for help. These two motioned to each other and raced quickly to where the sound was from.There were set of people trapped in a bus which was upside down close by wailing and panting for aid. It had collided with another bus causi
The two men crept pass the robots that were programmed to guard the gate that could lead inside. Alex advised they took the back which they did. This company had sections by sections and to cross by, one has to fight with a lot of aliens which had sighted them from a distance. Once they were done with kicking the badasses, they headed straight to where Anastasia could be found. Surprisedly, the villian wasn't there as he had gone to meet up with governmental agencies. His plans were really cunning as he seems to be the only solution the governments could turn since he claims he knew what caused the invasion of aliens in the country, hence he might be termed a hero but now he just wants to control everything under him and see the world burn. They found Anastasia fixed on a chair which had charges, her eyes were focused on a gadget. She was struggling to break through but no one was hearing her. The place was secured that it was difficult to get in."Let's break in" Alex said since the
The door got opened automatically too as his hands shook wanting to take a look at what was going on, just then the lights went on and his doorbell rang."Is this some kind of joke?" He mused as his hands were shaking. He wondered how vera kept up to this, in a nutshell, he was going to move out of the house because he had a feeling that ghosts or vampires were living in the same house with him, he jerked to reality when the doorbell rang again and he strides to the door to get it opened. He saw Alex standing and staring at him with a devious smile and Mr Williams smiled back."You wanted to see me? Mr Williams" Alex reminded and he nodded welcoming this man inside. He had forgotten that he called Alex over based on Vera's instructions."Make yourself comfortable""Why? We're still mourning over your lost family" Alex mocked indirectly and Mr Williams winced as this man was bringing back old wounds. He was becoming rude all of a sudden and not he's usually prince charming styles, he w
Xavier intended to ring the bells in this place but he got glued to the spot which he stood, that he couldn't move a muscle only his lips could move. He struggled to let lose of this man's power which was stronger than his, however he couldn't come out of the spell. He watched this man take Natalie in his arms gently, his dark hair which were long covered his face that it made it hard for Xavier to see him clearly, usually, Xavier could tell who it was even though they had mask on but this man must have cast a spell not to be recognized. He didn't waste much time as he had gotten what he came for and in a spur of a moment faded into the dark, immediately he faded with her corpse, Xavier fell to the tremendously into a coma.***The chop knife in her hand slide off as she heard Mr Williams read a message which Rodger sent recently."Tonight?" She repeated dropping the veggies in her hand on the chop board."Perhaps, he doesn't want to delay vera and that lucy girl must have told him th
