I stood transfixed, staring at Ken trying to see if he felt
remorse for what he was doing, the bastard kept the
gun at my head level staring back at me. I clenched my
fist almost wanting to punch him but I have punched
enough people to know the aftermath.
“So this is it, your revenge plan.” I said to Ken’s face, his
face had no expression.
“You deserve whatever that is happening to you.” He
replied me.
“How do I deserve it, what did I do wrong?” I was
almost yelling at Ken.
“You are not a friend to me, I nee-ded help and you
couldn’t come throu-gh for me.”
“Do I look like your piggy bank? Friends do not
encourage laziness”
“I wasn’t lazy!” Ken yelled and I raised a brow. “I was
into a business; I invested all my money into it, turned
out to be a scam. I was broke and I was in debt, and
then I turned to my so called friend for help and he just
turned me down. He didn’t even ask what I nee-ded
the money for.”
“You are a liar, I remember asking you, and you hung
up on me!”
“After you started raining abuses on me” Ken and I
were both fuming. “So right now I want you to take
your as-s back to that seat and empty your account for
me.” He said and aimed the pistol fiercely at me. I
slowly retreated back to the chair with a resolve not to
l@ya hand on the computer, I was re-ady to go throu-
gh torture even re-ady to die, but these captors of mine
won’t see a dime of my ha-rd earned money.
I sat on the chair idle for twenty seconds before I heard
Ken exhale sharply. “Well seems like you are shy
around this crowd.” I made no movement. “Well then
let’s get rid of a few for you. Mike you were telling
Charles something, I would like you to continue.” Ken
said.
Mike walked to where' I was and I saw remorse in his
eyes like he was almost crying. He squ-atted beside me
and said. “Charles like I said, I am un-der duress here,
I’m not a bad person. These people got something on
me, I know you think I am the master mind, it’s not me
it’s…”
“Enough!” Ken exclaimed, I heard a deafening sound,
and then I saw blood oozing out from a hole in Mike’s
head. He fell on his side and never moved again.
“Segun, you have any last words?” Ken turned to
segun, aiming his pistol at him. Segun looked infuriated
he was about to dash for Ken, Ken fired.
Segun clutched at his che-st, staggered backward, fell
on his back and then he was motionless.
“Huh that does it.” Ken sm-irked at me “Just the two of
us left now, what’s it gone be? You pla-ying along or
pla-ying against?”
I remained silent, Mike was right; meeting Ken was the
most devastating moment in my life.
“Look Charles I know you are going throu-gh a lot but
you deserve it.”
I looked at Ken with disdain, I wanted to launch at him
but I thought about it. I knew I was re-ady to die
instead of transferring my money, but I didn’t want to
provoke it because there is chance that I could be
saved. If only Victory would get my message.
Everything seemed surreal, I have been living a life
someone else wrote for me, I have pla-yed along to
their plot, did everything they wanted. Since Mike said
he was manipulated into doing what he did then
maybe Tiffany was also f0rç£d to tick me, because
when I had her, she felt so real, there is no way slee-
ping with me was p@rt of the script. I could remember
she c@m£ to warn me heck she even said she was
sorry.
All hatred I felt towards Tiffany was resolved. I was
beginning to miss her again.
I looked at Ken all I could do was wish him harm. “You
will never get away with this I promise.”
Ken chuckled “That joke’s on you bro, think about it,
everything is labeled on you, you bleeped and killed an
actress then you ran, sh0t a police woman and ran
again, now you have killed a tech tycoon and some
other random guy, and soon you will take your own
life. plea-se remind me how I am still involved.”
“What did I do wrong to instill so much hatred?”
“Simple! You were stingy to me.”
“How did you do it? How did you get all these people
to do your bidding?” I said with croaked voice.
Ken exhaled. “Well it wasn’t easy, but sometimes God
just decides to bless you with wisdom, wisdom that
makes you cook up plans and alter-nate plans, well
calculated scenarios. Let’s see, I met Mike at a casino,
conned him to brokenness and then he stated using
company’s money, I later got him in scandalous
situations started blackmailing him, well enough about
Mike.”
“What about Tiffany?”
“I won’t tell you because, you are wasting my time.
Why not start transferring, I will tell you the whole
story when it starts re-ading in percentages.”
“Forget about it Ken that is not happening.”
Ken bec@m£ worried and I wondered why. He brou-ght
his phone and dialed someone. “Where are you?” he
asked the receiver angrily, waited for a reply. “Then
come inside.”
“Hey buddy, I’ve got a surprise for you.” He said and
pointed towards the entrance. I wondered what the
surprise could be, then I saw it or should I say her.
Victory walked into the room tensed, I sat gaping at
her in shock. For a moment there I thought Victory was
betraying me until I saw a hand holding a pistol
emerge, I looked at victory who was apologizing with
her facial gesture and took a resolved breath. She c@m
£ for me, but why the hell did she come alone?
I stared at the hand and deduced that it was a female
hand, I wondered who it could be, and then
majestically a foot stepped in, followed by a full b©dy.
The face I saw s£nt a wave of shock throu-gh my
entire b©dy.
Standing before me, in the flesh was Tiffany Johnson. Don't forget to leave a Comment
