2024-10-29 19:42:56Rex paused his thoughts, waiting for the man to declare everything was a joke and that they were playing a sick joke on him. However, the elderly man had a serious face on.
The director's phone beeped
"DNA says you are not related, so you must be a doppelganger," he said and ordered Rex to make a decision.
"Everything is a Joke, right?" Rex finally spoke.
The man warned, "Mr Grayson, with your pretty face, men will make a meal out of you. Therefore, my advice is to sign a contract with us.
Rex swallowed hard, asking the man to show him his ID. He understood he already said who he worked for but he needed to be sure.
The director removed his badge and gave it to Rex.
"What exactly does the NSA do?" he asked.
"More like the CIA but we have jurisdiction in the country and way above them," the old man smiled.
"So if I get this job, I will not save time?"
The old man smiled again, "Yes and I think we are wasting time discussing your doubts," the director said and removed a contract from his file. "You go to Israel or you become someone's wife in prison," he joked.
Rex got up, nervously moistening his dry lips. Desperation etched its way into every crease.
"Sit down, Grayson!" the man ordered.
Rex's hands twitched spastically, he was all sweaty and his breathing ragged. The deal in front of him was too good to be true.
"Mr Grayson, your decision, we have other candidates waiting for this opportunity," the old man insisted.
Rex looked at the contract again, one did not trust the man but one thing was right. He was going to be turned into everyone's bitch plus a punching bag in prison.
"But…but I have no experience…I work in an office job," he stated.
"Your first assignment will not need any skill. Just show up at a restaurant. The person will confirm your face and hand you a briefcase," the man explained
"Restaurant?" Rex asked.
"Yes in Israel, full of customers. The person only trusts Chad," the director emphasized and pulled the contract from Rex's hand.
Rex pushed it back, he had taken a fall for a crime he did not commit so he was not going to let a miracle pass him.
As it stood, he was already a dead man in the prison walls.
"Pen… pen," he said out.
The director handed him a pen and he quickly signed it.
For unknown reasons, he felt like the weight of the five-year sentence he was given, lifted off him.
The director grabbed the contract, Placed it in his file and asked him to wait.
Rex watched as the man walked out of the room.
He let out a sigh, wondering what was going to happen next.
The door opened and a woman dressed in what appeared to be military walked in with the director following from behind.
"This is not going to work!" she said, staring at Rex.
"He looks like a scared kitty," she got closer. "And he does not smell like Chad but smells of piss," she turned away.
Rex looked away embarrassed
"Prep him up and make him look and smell like Chad," the director ordered, walking out of the room.
The woman rolled her eyes and asked Rex to get up.
"Hurry up, we only have two hours," the woman said.
Rex quickly got up and was taken to a bathroom where he was ordered to shower up.
After he was done, a hair stylist was brought in to make him look very identical to the late Chad and he was finally put in a suit and handed a briefcase.
Rex stood in front of the mirror in an expensive tailored suit and a slicked-back haircut, unable to recognise himself.
The woman walked back into the room this time with a smile.
A jet will take you to Israel, and a man will pick you up at the airport," she ordered.
"What… NOW!" Rex asked.
"You blow your cover, we send you back to jail," the woman warned.
Rex swallowed hard, his heart on the verge of bursting out.
"The mission is simple, the driver will drop you at the restaurant and you are to sit in the back seat and wait for a woman dressed in white," she explained.
"The woman will hand you a briefcase and you are to hand her yours," she added and warned him not to say any words to the woman.
Rex nodded and before he knew it, he was in Israel getting picked up by the driver and was already in his seat at the restaurant.
He was shaking, his heart was practically in his hands.
The door opened and a woman in white with a briefcase walked in and sat from across the table.
He quickly handed her his briefcase but to his horror, she pointed a gun at him under the table and asked for the safe word.

Whatever you are selling, I am not buying," Sydney finally spoke, trying to shut the door in his face, but Rex quickly grabbed the door."Sydney, it's me, your brother Rex. I am alive!" Rex stated.

They all saw his body, and because they could not afford a coffin, they had to cremate him, and his ashes were in the living room.Without a second thought, she ran inside, screaming. Either her mind was playing a trick on her, or someone hired the man in front of her to play a sick game on her."Sydney, wait!" Rex ran after her.Sydney ran straight for her phone, but she could not find it. Her father, who was sleeping on the couch, awoke from the screaming and asked

Breathing heavily, Sydney slammed the door behind her, the sound echoing through the house. She desperately wished that he was a fraud, an impostor, and not her real brother.There was no way her compassionate brother, who always prioritized others over himself, would accept such a ridiculous offer from the government and abandon his family."He wouldn't do that," she kept telling herself as she threw herself onto the bed and began sobbing.Meanwhile, in the living room, Rex proceeded to tell his father about the deal he had made with the government. His father remained silent, his eyes fixed on the floor.Rex grabbed his father's hand and started begging, tears streaming down his face. "I'm sorry, father. If I had known, I never would have taken that stupid test," he cried out.His father's eyes rose in a way that revealed the hidden sadness he was trying to conceal. "The good news is that you're back," the old man whispered. "That's what matters."In another room, Sydney went on

Rex slowly began reading the lawsuits that Chelsea filed against the government for what was referred to as negligence in his death. There were various articles on different websites. His mind was digesting the reality that not only was his sacrifice to accept the blame for the crime in vain, but Chelsea went on to profit from his fake death, and his family did not receive a penny.He sat on the couch worn out, without making any movement. The breakfast he had planned to prepare for his father sat in the kitchen drying up.He felt his stomach turn and all the stomach contents came hurling up making it difficult for him to hold it in.He got up and ran to the bathroom and vomited his guts out.Sydney walked back into the room at the sound of the vomiting. She looked in her father's direction."This is as hard for him as it is for us," her father said."But…" Sydney tried to protest, but her father interrupted her."Our prayers have been answered, I don't care if it's the devil that an

Rex was taken into a private room, giving him time to calm down. But the entire time he was in there, all he could think of was how dedicated he had been to the NSA while his family was wallowing in poverty and humiliating conditions.He clenched his fist, breathing heavily. He had wasted five years all for nothing. The Director betrayed him; the stupid fool was at the top of the list next to Chelsea."Chelsea! Director Peter Banks! Chelsea! Director Peter Banks!" Rex kept repeating to himself.The door opened, and one of the agents walked in. He cleared his throat and spoke."Due to your good record over the past five years, the Director has decided not to press any charges," he said.Rex looked away, showing no sign of being moved or grateful. The Director was nothing but a pig, a worthless piece of sh*t."Can I go?" he asked."Next time, you will not be this lucky," the Agent warned.Rex walked up to him, "Tell that to your boss," he warned.The Agent smiled, "Listen, you have bee

Chelsea slowly turned away and let out an audible swallow. She was supposed to be running or screaming, but for unknown reasons, she remained glued to her seat, soaking in her own sweat.The wedding dress was too thick, and the cooling system in the hall appeared to have malfunctioned.The other three, Selena, Melissa, and Miguel, had paused at the sound of Rex's voice, though their hearts were still racing.Rex looked up in Selena's direction and smiled."You died… You died five years ago," she whispered."No, Peter Banks faked my death and replaced me with a lookalike," Rex's voice echoed in Chelsea's ears.Chelsea slowly lifted her head to face Rex, who returned her shocked eyes with a cold icy glare sharp enough to pierce her heart."Do not tell me he was fucking you but never told you I was alive and working for him?"

Rex sat in his office, waiting for the deliberations on his application for the Director position. The supervisors were locked for over an hour, debating while he sat in front of his laptop watching Peter run mad. It was two days in his holding cell, waiting for bail and for his lawyer who was trying to prove that Chelsea was not mentally stable and her confession was not reliable or credible in court. The man was busy tearing into Chelsea’s life and exposing her with a list of all the government officials she once slept with and all the illegal activities she was involved in. Their main goal was to tarnish Chelsea’s name so that she was deemed not credible to confess in any courtroom. Rex did not interfere, he sat back and watched from a distance as the two went on exposing their sex scandal and dirty laundry. Finally, his phone beeped. The supervisors were done.

Peter Banks was placed in handcuffs and taken to the van that drove him to the private detention center. He was calm and did not show any signs of resistance or frustration. He was more interested in the person who was going to lead the investigation, considering the dirt he had on all the directors and deputies in various agencies. That was why he was untouchable; everyone was dirty and was supposed to know not to go poking in other people’s business. He was taken into a room, and in minutes, his supervisors and deputy walked in.“I will advise everyone to think or visit their lawyers before they say anything here,” he warned in an orderly tone.The door opened, and Rex walked in.“What the fuck is he doing here!” he yelled.“Rex is now part of our team and is leading this investigation,” the deputy announced, sending Peter slamming on the chair.He looked at his supervisor.“Last we checked, you are the one who recommended him, and it took him only a day to get a confession,” the

I will blow up! How could you cremate my daughter without me!” he yelled, but Rex had already hung up on him.He dialed the line, but it went on ringing.Frustrated, he called the men who were following Rex.They needed to abduct Rex, dead or alive.“How far!

The paramedics took Patricia away in the ambulance while Rex fixed his eyes on Peter, whose face was as grey as water-soaked chalk dust. It was the old man’s fault; he released Chelsea. He sent her to the function to kill him. He was the only one who had the power to infiltrate her into his security team. On the other hand, Peter could feel his legs numbing up; his daughter was dead. He killed his daughter; it was his fault. That was not a fact he could try to make excuses for or try to pull himself out of. He had known his family was going to be at the event, yet he risked it all.
