SAVE ME

Heavy feet through the MacRonny’s hospital corridor. His heart raced and ticked with anger and furry.

“Who did you say did this my son”?’ He asked one of George’s friends as he stopped at the same spot to grab him by the shirt.

“I do not know but I am very sure it was Thomas. He came to the lounge to ask for George’s whereabouts and we told him. Sir we were all drunk and I am so sorry” The young man pleaded.

“’Well, you will be sorry for yourself and your entire family because my son doesn’t get well as fast as I want him to”. The governor spoke. His big stomach protruded. He released his grip on the young man and walked straight to the ward where his son was laid. It is a private ward for special cases. He looked up at the description on the door post and shook his head in pain. He pushed the door open to meet a doctor and a nurse treating his son.

“Doctor. What exactly is my son’s condition? I need to know so I can have a rest at least”. He spoke coldly.

“Sir, you have to

    A BIG FAVORShe ran off quickly and got to her house. “Meanwhile the governor has gotten to his office. The situation report of his son was making him lose his mind. He sat on a chair and placed his feet on the desk. “I do not think my son got in a fight with that boy just like that. Something must have triggered it. Now look at my boy” he spoke to his aide who had his hand folded on his shoulder. “Well, I think we should give it some time, maybe he will recover from it”.“Give it some time? While the idiot who got my boy into this goddamn situation goes free, enjoying his life? Never. I shall fight with all I have to bring that riffraff to justice. He can’t just walk around town like he did nothing while my boy suffers for nothing”. The governor said even more angered than he had been.A knock came on the door and the PA ran off to get it. “Yes, what do you want and who are you?” the PA asked.“I am Tricia Adams and I am here to see the governor. George’s girlfriend”. She said wi

    CAUGHTTricia rushed out of the room and headed straight for the corridor. Her heart swelled with pain and fear as she rushed out to search for his car. Damn bastard”. She spoke and rushed back into the room to grab her bag. Things he suddenly remembered: she can't go to the governor with the bad news. She placed her room back and forth.“I think I need to tell the governor before it's too late”. She thought as she bit her lower lip thinking and hoping she would wake up from the dream.Wake up Tricia. This has got to be a joke” she mutters to herself. She is in really deep trouble and the governor could get her locked up if she isn't careful. How was she going to get that bastard and that check?She thought of going to the bank or to the airport but changed her mind. She quickly grabbed her bag and went for the later. There was no way he would have picked up the money in such a fast time. She hurried out of the lodge and flagged a taxi.She hopped in and told the driver where she was

    I AM THOMAS AL THANIThe things drove as fast as the could with Tricia laying at the back. Her mouth plastered with tapes. She had managed to recover consciousness as the car continued in motion. Then they suddenly stopped at the hotel Thomad stayed. They climbed to the second floor and headed straight to his room. They know he as been hiding there since after the incident and the informant gave them the information that Thomas was still in the room. He saw them coming from the Balcony and smiled. The men rushed in thudding their feet against the ground as they walked hurriedly. “Hurry up” Their leader spoke and matched on. The moment they got to the door. They broke in unannounced. The bedroom was empty. “Where the hell did he go?” The thug leader frowned at the others as they all took turns to scan the room. Their informant was sure Thomas was in that room and now what? Had he just disappeared without any trace? They stood with lots of unanswered questions in their hearts.“Sear

    CHASED OUTThe governor’s thugs drove the car as fast as they could till they got to a very lonely road. “Get out of the car,” their leader yelled at Tricia.“The governor has asked us to let you go free without paying back the money you carelessly threw away. You know you are very lucky the governor is in a very good mood and this is your lucky day”. The man said.“Should I go?” Tricia asked in a very scared tone, She looked around and there was no single house or cars she could shield herself from. At this point she sensed there was trouble but all she had to do it’s obey their others to save her life.“Run Tricia. You are free, you can run back to the city from here, it's not as far as you think it is”. One of the men said to her. Tricia let them take off the rope on her hand and began to run as fast as her legs could carry her. The men let her run for a good distance and just when she believed she was finally saved, they drove towards her with seed while she put in all her best

    A HUGE LOSS“Mom, that was too harsh. We shouldn't have chased him away. What if he gets killed by those governor's thugs?” Maven asked her mother while she gave her a skeptical look.Maven the idiot is old enough and man enough to take care of himself” Lady Victoria answered deviantly without thinking. She held her hand in her head and sighed. Maybe she would go look for Thomas later but for now she would stay away. Since her mother doesn't want to see Thomas she would stay away for a while.She laid in bed and slept off. By morning she got up and rushed off to work. Grandma was already seated in her chair when she walked in.“Maven you are so fond of coming late to walk. I have thought you changed when we gave you a break. You really didn't change. You still have the effrontery to show up here late despite the fact that we are trying to build this company back. Sheooked at her Grandma soberly. She was tired and stressed from all that happened the previous day. “I hear your husband

    SHE IS MINE TO PROTECTMaven has thought about all the options and yet couldn't come up with some reasonable ones. She packed her office back and forth with the tip of her pen in mouth. “Damn! How on earth would they bar me from accessing the company?” She questioned and wondered through all the options she had. “Yes! That's exactly what I would do”.She said and grabbed her handbag and her car keys. She raced out, hitting Grace on the shoulder.“I am sorry Ma'am”.Grace bent over to pick up the files that had fallen off her hand. “Ma'am I need you to see this. A meeting has been fixed by DetroX solutions tomorrow”.Grace spoke the words as she raced after her boss who only had limited time to listen.“What meeting?I didn't schedule any meeting with them Grace” Maven managed to answer as she strolled out hastily.Then she suddenly paused to have a rethink.What's going on Grace?did you fix any meeting without first letting me know about it?”she queried her tone changing quickly and her

    ENOUGH IS ENOUGHThomas took Maven upstairs and laid her on the bed. He quickly took off her shoes and covered her with the duvet. He had always had a liking for Maven right from the first night he had met her at the bar drunk. This night brought a lot of memories to his heart as he sat by her side. He pushed off the long hair covering her face and smiled as he watched her sleep peacefully.Just at that moment the door creaked open and Lady Victoria stood by the door.“What did you say happened to her?” She asked like Thomas was supposed to know the reason she got herself drunk.“How would I know ma’am? I have no damn idea, I think she is frustrated from work” Thomas answered calmly. From the corner of his eyes he could see Lady Victoria scanning him like he had come into her home to steal, meanwhile the reverse was the case. Thomas smiled wryly and got up to his feet. I guess I have to leave, I am still not welcome here”. He mouthed.“Well, I think you should because you have no damn

    AN UNWANTED INVITEWhen Maven woke up from sleep. She decided to go invite Thomas over to the house at least to thank him for looking out for her.

Seating in the living room like a total stranger. “Hey” she called out when she stopped by the stairs. Come on, we need to talk up the stairs. She told him. “The maid will bring your food to the room. I know it's against the tradition of this house but will have to do it that way."I am so confused Thomas, I don't know what to do, '' Maven complained bitterlyThomas smiled while studying her face for a while; he knows she's the mewler. She could break down at the slightest opportunity she gets. Thomas held Maven's hand and helped her up to her feet. He stood in front of her.

    HOME AT LAST The moment they finished the duo got up and began to walk from the VIP lounge section to the main restaurant. Suddenly Thomas paused as a sense of danger hit him. His eyes shot a glowing green light and when Maven saw it she became very terrified. “What is wrong with you Thomas?Why are your eyes glowing?”she began to panic.From all she could see, Thomas looked like a demigod. “Is everything alright? The moment she shook him violently he came back to his original self. The green glow in his eyes died down immediately. “I think someone needs my help around here”. He said unbuttoning his suit as he began to walk faster. He increased his pace so much that Maven had to run along with him. “What do you mean someone needs your help?” she asked him but he gave her deaf ears and continued without stopping to say a single word. She called his name and ran after him till they got to the hall. “Call the ambulance”. Maven heard loud voices screaming while others tried to gi

Lady Victoria had a smile on her face. “Happy birthday my child”. Lady Victoria said, handing the glass of wine to Maven. ‘Mom. You did all of this for me? Awn! Thank you so much”. Maven said smiling, she took the glass from her mom and sipped from the wine. “This is good.” She then cleared her throat and clasped her hands together. “Look what we have here”.She exclaimed and rushed off to sit close to the cake. I have a wish and I want to make it. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath for a second before blowing off the candle sticks. Lady Victoria and Abigail clapped their hands happily. “Happy birthday Ms.” Abigail said to her and handed her a small box. “You got me a gift too?’ Maven asked with her eyes watering. “Come here” she grabbed the lady and hugged her tightly.

It’s long overdue and I need to get my life together. A life outside of the Taylor’s roof”. Lady Victoria was determined to get her life back at least for the rest of her days. Having a companion and someone to share her burden with. “Grandma, what do you have to say to this proposal?’ Maven asked, looking at her grandma with knowing eyes. “Mom, what exactly are they talking about? What deal do you have with Victoria? Do you have any idea Derrick?’ Patrick turned to his brother and asked him. Derrick shook his head. “I have no damn idea anything like this ever took place. “Whoa! Mom, that's pure wickedness. I thought all these while she stayed back with us because she so loved her husband and wanted to keep the legacy going. I never knew you had some contract running right under our noses” Patrick said the words without filtrating an

She had always known who grandma was when it came to having dinner or lunch or even breakfast at her place. With all that has gone on she just doesn’t want to get entangled with grandma and her boys, just focusing on her job and if need be quit if another chaos comes. All that mattered to her right now was her peace of mind and sanity. Maven walked down to meet her mother in the living room. “Mom, did Grandma Clara call you?’ She asked her mother if she had her eyes glued on the TV for her favorite show. The lady shook her head repeatedly without taking her eyes off the screen. “Well, I guess we would be having dinner at grandmas’ I suggest you go get dressed.” She informed her mother. Lady Victoria looked up at Maven with a frown on her face. “I am not going to Clara’s house for no dinner” she said rudely, grabbing the remote control on the table. “Why?Sh

    SENTENCED It’s been three months since Sebastian has been in and out of court. His Lawyer Bryan knows well that Sebastian would never win the case against the government and the Al Thani’s. The biggest name in the society. He had his head bowed in the cubicle when his lawyer made the last statement. The presiding judge Albert Wilmore sat on his seat with the wig hanging stylishly on his head. An old man from the North. He is presumed to be the best and sincere judge in the entire city. “Get me out of here” he whispered to his lawyer in a very soft tone. “I am trying my best. The judge is a strict one but I will see what I can do. “What do you even mean by that? I don’t need you to try, I need you to get me out. What’s there to lie and convince the court that I didn’t do it? You can’t even lie. Shame on you”. He said and just then the judge hit the gavel to maintain order. The break was over. The judge cleared his throat. “After hearing from both parties, this honorable court

    LET THEM GO The moment she saw the news she knew she had to do something to save her son. She had gone to the station to plead and try to bride David but the officers wouldn’t let her do that despite the fact that they know her too well. “I need my son out of here. No one is saying anything”, she began to cry. Just then Thomas drove in. She threw her bag on the floor and rushed to meet him. “I asked you to get your lawyers ready. David is appearing in court in a few days and there is nothing anyone will do about it. I will not let him treat my wife like that all because of envy”. Thomas was still pissed at what David did. But before he could say one more word, the old woman fell on her knees and began to plead. Everyone came out and began to look in surprise that the all mighty Lady Clara Taylor could go on her knees begging a small boy like Thomas all because she wants her son to come out of prison.

    CROWNED The morning after the whole incident Thomas’s assistant called in. Thomas was still in bed when his phone began to ring. “It’s too early for all the calls to start coming in”. He murmured as she reached out for the phone. Seeing Greg’s name made his heart churn a little bit. “Greg, what do we have this morning?’ he asked in a greasy voice. “Sir, you have a meeting with the Lesotho group at 9am”. His phone was calm and patient. “I will try not to be late. Put everything in other”. “Yes boss! Greg answered. They spoke on the phone for a while listing Thomas’ meetings and activities for the day after which they ended the call. Thomas got out of bed grudgingly. After the whole drama for the week he doesn’t see himself getting into any meeting or sit but he had to do it for the sake of the company. The company has to go one way or the other. Just as he got the tip of his bed a knock came on his door. He turned his head to look over. He knows his grandpa or Lucas, his co

    MAVEN IS DISCHARGED Lady Victoria has never been this rude to grandma but since Grandma has decided to bite the finger that feeds her then she would have to face the dance and the music she had set for herself. Thomas left the prison that instance and he headed straight to the hospital to meet Maven. On his way he had asked Grace Maven’s assistant to watch over her while they await her discharge time. He hurried and drove the car to the hospital and when he arrived at the front gate the men he kept to safeguard the yard nodded at him. They were dressed in black suits and black face Masks different from the security men who work for the hospital. He raised up using the elevator to the fourth floor where Maven was. He waved at the nurse rashly and wafted past her like spoke ready to consume a whole bush. This was the moment he wished he could kill his enemies with his powers but that would not be very necessary at this point. He is not big enough to face David and Sebastian. Rath
