The Rising Phoenix: Devisee’s escapade. The Black Card
Mira was angry that the poor fellow was trying to turn the whole thing into a show but who didn’t want to see him humiliated? She figured that he was biting more than he could chew and definitely wanted to make sure he was dealt with. “If you do not pay for the room as you have said, you will work for me as my cleaner at home for free for a month.” “And if I do?” Jason asked with full confidence. “That’s not even possible, I am sure of that.” Mira scoffed and looked at Jason again. The feeling of confidence crept into her and she was also sure to deal with him for being such a stubborn fellow. “What if I do? What becomes of you?” “I see you still find this funny, if you do then I would come work for you as your cleaner for a month.” “Mira!” Francis said aloud trying to call his colleague to order. Something inside of him told him that there could be more to the man’s shabby appearance and he believed his instincts. “Don’t worry, I am certain that by the time all these is

The Assistant manger turned towards Jason and observed him carefully from his hair down to his rickety sandals. He scoffed and frowned for a few seconds, then he smiled along to the thoughts that ran through his mind. “This would be a perfect opportunity to get myself into the good book of the Walkers. Who knows, I could be considered for the position of the next Manager by the time Mr. Garry retires.” He thought to himself with a one sided smile. Again he looked at Jason without saying a word for a few seconds. His eyes got stuck when they gazed upon the black card that was resting casually in Jason’s hand. He had never seen one before, only heard about it, and just like everyone else he didn’t think that Jason was going to be able to be the rightful owner of the black card. “Young man who are you?” Leonard asked with an imperative tune as soon as the laughter disappeared from his face. “Does that really matter? Do I have to be interrogated before I can be given a room in thi

“I knew it! You owe me your salary for this week.” Norah said victoriously with a smile on her face. She was not only happy that she had won her bet, she was also happy that the shabby looking fellow who came to disturb the peace of the hotel would be dealt with accordingly. The silence which lasted for almost a minute was overshadowed by the voices of the observes who mumbled inaudible words. Some laughed and jeered at Jason, which some others cured at him for being a thief and trying to use another person’s debit card claiming that it was his. “Oh the delight I would have from battering you out of this place.” Said the guard as he made a move to raise his baton against Jason but Leonard raised his hand to signal him to a stop. “Before you do that, I would have to take the precious card from him before it is ruined in the process.” Leotard said with a smile showing that his plans were falling in place. “I told you this fool was a fraud didn’t I?” The words spoken by Mira rea

The man seemed really afraid of the shabby looking man in front of him as he continued to plead without raising his face. This went cold shivers into the nerves of all those who had made bets with him. “That’s Me Garry! The Manager of this Hotel. Is he really on the floor or are my eyes deceiving me?” Said an onlooker from a distance. The old lady who has made her move to leave the scene out of annoyance was frozen and this effect was not only for her, it was distributed to everyone in the room, the stillness, the rising tension and the pounding heartbeats amidst open mouths were truly remarkable. “Who could that be? That young man definitely is someone of high dignity for Mr Garry to prostrate before him.” “More like a god! Norah.” Hilda said to Norah as they watched with their mouth agape. The stillness didn’t stop Leonard’s heart from pounding against his chest, he took three steps backward as though he was preparing to take off gulping in saliva. No matter how he tried t

The lady remained silent for a while unable to say her name. The fear on her face was glaring as her hands continued to shake. “Didn’t you hear him? Speak up now or have your body whipped!” Gary said angrily raising his right hand as though he was about to hit her. “Hilda! Hilda, my name is Hilda!” She said with a panic holding on to her chest and bending her head with her eyes closed from the moment she saw the huge hand rise above her. She gradually opened them when she waited for a few seconds and no hand touched her. At that point, she had already let out a shrilling cry. “Hilda? That’s a nice name.” Jason said with a smile, then he turned towards the dog who has been quiet for a while. “You have a cute dog Hilda.” “Thank you sir. His name is Milo.” She said unable to raise her face to look at the man who had a strangely calm attitude that was accompanied with a constant smile that refused to leave his face. “We had a deal Hilda and I love to obey every rule I come ac

Mira’s heart sank deeper and deeper into her stomach, even from afar it was visible that her hand was shaking as she tried to catch her breath. “Si…Sir.” She couldn’t find the words she wanted to speak. Francis gave her a stare that read ‘I warned you!’ as he took interval glances at her. Mira looked for solace but she found none. “Come on, don’t be scared. I don’t bite.” Jason said calmly with a smile, but this only made matters worse for Mira who definitely knew that the man was going to ‘bite’ in one way or the other especially after what she had seen him do. “Mira dear, I would really want us to check the card again. Who knows, it may have been a case of network glitch.” Jason said with a smirk taking two steps forward towards Mira. “But Sir…Bu…” Mira stammered amidst the tension that had already taken over her entire existence. She looked around, but no one seemed to care about her situation, they only looked because they wanted to see what was going to become of her by th

The guard was speechless, his courage had already left him a long time ago when the Hotel Manager hit him. Standing by the corner and having watched as others were dealt with, he could only wish that his condition could be lighter. “What’s your name Mister?” Jason asked taking a step forward towards the guard. “Owen Sir.” He responded without lifting his head. His entire body was itching me as sweat poured down from all the pores in his body. His breathing was heightened and his hand shook to the sound of his heartbeat which had no plans of stopping. “Owen? That’s a very good name.” Jason said smiling, then he covered up the little space between them and placed his right hand on Owen’s shoulder making him to whimper as he saw the hand going down thinking that Jason was about to hit him. “Such a big for nothing baby. He already yelps even without being touched.” “I wonder what his punishment would be.” The man responded to his business partner still holding on to his glass of

Owen went towards the man who held up his phone capturing everything that was unfolding but for some reason, the man didn’t react when he came close to him. He only held up his camera right in front of him and continued to record. This made Owen angry and determined to follow the instruction Jason have to him to the latter. Without any further hesitation, he bent over and lifted the man from the ground to the shock of everyone around. “How dare you! Do you know who I am? Let me down this minute you fool!” The man barked but all his utterances met deaf ears as Owen continued to carry him towards the reception area not ready to let him go. “Didn’t you hear me? I said let me down this minute! I can make you disappear!” He continued barking but Owen already had chosen a side which evidently came from the devil he knew. “What do you think the stranger is going to do to that man?” “I don’t know let’s watch I guess this is because he was recording.” Norah replied her colleague as s
