Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 38
CONTâD FROM THE LAST SCENE :
Michelle walked into the room and saw Steve, his head bent down and his hands roaming around his hairs, he was clearly deep in thoughts or else he would have heard her walk in, She stood for a moment, trying to determine her next line of action, she could just push him on the bed, straddle herself on him and drive him into wonderland, moreover the party was almost over but then Steve might push her off, and she dint want to present herself like a nymphomaniac or she could just leave and pretend she wasnât here, and play the hard ball, waiting for Steve to run to her like a maid in waiting; she was confused so she did the one thing she figured might be the suitable way out, she shut the door behind her so loudly that even someone on the stairs could hear the sound.
Steve raised his head, more with a shock, the sound had pushed him away from whatever thoughts he was having;
âwhat the hell did you do that for ?â Steve asked
âWell â I have been calling you over and over and Iâve been standing here for quite sometime now; and you werenât making any move whatsoever so I figured out, I should do thatâ She lied, scared of the bloodshot eyes Steve was casting at her, but she had to hold her composure, she couldnât let him know she was scared or freaking out.
âMichelle, Iâm not deaf and ââ Steve began to say, but his words flew back as they were about leaving his mouth. Michelle cuts in with a slightly raised voice, âYou now call me by my name â its Michelle now rightâ
âLook â Iâm not ready for this â okay, if you walked all the way from wherever you came from, to this place to exchange words with me, Iâm sorry to disappoint you but Iâm not fit for thatâ
âoh! what are you fit for then â SANDRA ?! â
âwhat are you saying, have you gone nuts or youâre tipsy I think you should get some sleepâ
âOh stop the pretense Steve, I saw her leave here just nowâ
âI have a right to see whosoever I want to see, Michelle â just like you have the right to see whosoever you want to see; moreover you made it clear I donât own you, remember ?!!!!â Steve was now on his feet, his fist tightened and fastened into his sides, their voices were at its peak and anyone passing through the hallway will definitely hear them.
âOh, Steve âstop being so childish, thatâs not what I meant, and moreover you can see anyone but not Sandraâ
âSo I canât dictate for you but you can do that for me, right ? what do you take me as â some puppet or whatâ
âSteve, youâre not a puppet, youâre MY LIFE and I get jealous whenever I see Sandra around youâ
âwhen I got jealous over a guy touching you, I was wrong, why is that whatever you do, you just have a way to justify it, huh?â
âIâm sorry, I was just upset you ruined the party because of that, and I felt the guy was drunk so you shouldnât have fought with him, it might lead to a national scandal and a lot of prominent people where there, it might be a blow to your image and ââ
Steve cuts in ââ Iâm leaving, Michelle â
âyou are leaving ? leaving to where ? I donât get you â she drew closer to him, her heart beat fastened and it could be audible enough if someone drew their ears nearer to her chest, she was scaredâ what exactly was Steve insinuating â
âIâm leaving town, wanna move over to another state â
âOkay, when do we leave, so I can get my bags ready and have you told mum ?â
âMichelle, just stop â I am leaving not we, youâre staying hereâ
She laughed, she was getting scared and that statement increased her fears..
âI donât get you Steveâ
âwe need some space, Michelle and I donât want to be too clingy; letâs just take a break â after awhile Iâll be back â
âno ânooooâoo Steve we donât need any break, we have been apart for 5 years; okay, fine I messed up, I hurt you, Iâm stupid, Iâm crazy but you canât leave Steve, donât leave â it-itât-its gonna break me, I wonât survive another space from youâ Michelle said, moving closer to him, tears already gathering in her eyes and threatening to pour at any time.
âIâm sorry, Michelle â I have made my decision and I want to be left alone nowâ he said and walked over to his bed, switched on his phone and kept himself busy.
Michelle stood there for a while, transfixed to the spot, tears pouring freely from her eyes, her heart was breaking, the rate of her heartbeat increased and it was like it will explode at any moment, her feet went weak and numb, she suddenly felt her lips cold, her fingers were also cold, she was suddenly shivering, it was getting so cold in here. it was her system were failing, her eyes began to shutter and her brain was making loud bangs inside her head, the images around her were become so blur and unclear, everywhere suddenly felt so quiet and lonely, her eyes were barely open, she felt her body spin but she was hearing Steveâs voice call out to her, how come she couldnât see where he was, her eyes finally shut and her brain went to sleep.
âAlfred ! Alfred !! Alfred !!! â Steve shouted, carrying Michelle in his hands, taking fast strides down the hallway.
âYes sirâ
âget the cars ready, Sheâs hurt, call the doctor; we have an emergency â hurry !!!â Steve was clearly in a panic mode, he held onto her tightly.
âDonât go anywhere, Baby â I am right here, I wonât let anything happen to youâ He said, not knowing whether she could hear him or not but he needed to say those words, he was also reaffirming himself as well.
âStanley, I donât understand you but one thing is clear â allowing Steve into Nigeria was a mistakeâ
Mr. Popov said walking around the large parlor, hands folded at his back, he was clearly not happy with the events that happened at The Douglas mansion tonight.
âcalm down, Dad â Iâve got this under controlâ
âDonât tell me to calm down, boy â I made you powerful, because you said you needed to be powerful to bring down the Douglasâ â its been 5 years now, and nothing tangible has happened, you only sent men to their slaughter in Accraâ
âYou mistook it, Dad â those men were collateral damage, the operation was an experiment in as much as I wanted Steve to die in Accra, I knew he was no kid, I wanted to know how far he has developed during this period, I knew he will figure out something was wrong, i sent in a small unit because there was a possibility they were heading to their slaughter â they were martyrs for our cause, dadâ.
âI planned for Jeremy to be at that party, i knew he had a knack for pretty young ladies; but he wonât hit on The Mighty Steveâs girl if he was sober so i got him drunk and led him to were they danced, he walked to her as expected and swatted her ass, Steve was pissed and had a fight with himâ
âi donât get it, sonâ whatâs you end game ?â Mr. Popov sat down on his chair, shooting him long face stares. There was so much he dint know.
âYouâre getting old, dad â this is it : I know Jeremyâs temperament, he will want to get back at Steve and their might be an open alteration. I will use this opportunity to kill tow birds with one stone., When Jeremy confronts Steve again, it will become official, and knowing Jeremy as the Southern head of the BUCCANEERSâ CONFRATERNITY, he will want to use the firepower of the frat against Steve, Steve will see this as an open war, then i will step in, Iâll kill Jeremy, making me the next Southern head of the BUCCANEERSâ CONFRATERNITY, its more men and connection, we can begin to carry hits on your political rivals in the current administration- as for the second bird Steve, once jeremy is dead in the most brutal way possible, people will point fingers at Steve and its a national scandal, its the nation bigger boys and Jeremyâs father that will take care of him for usâ
Mr. Popov laughed and smiled ââ Wahala !!!! WHAT A BOMBSHELL !!!
Jared : hey buddy â whatsup ?
Alfred : Iâm good â how you hanging out ?
Jared : not much man â howâs Michelle now ?
Alfred : Doc said she needs a couple of rest, sheâll be awake by tomorrow, was just a minor brain shut out.
Jared (smiles) :that good
Alfred : So anything new, man
Jared : pulled up the autopsy report from one of the guys we grabbed and ran an identification process on him, and you wonât believe it â Heâs a member of some frat.
Alfred : i guessed so, they were quite some hit men you know..
Jared : but you wonât believe this.
I pulled up some files of his, 300 level student in Uniport and heâs a close friend of Stanley and Jeremy as well.
Alfred : Its either one of them ordered the hit, or they both belong to the same group.
whatâs the relationship between Jeremy and Stanley.
Jared : they donât seem to be friends â and even tonight, they just had a couple of drinks and even had an argument during the party.
Alfred : whatever it is â one thing is certain, The frat is now our official enemy â pull a quick survey of everything we can get on them, national players, sponsors, camp grounds, college members, their modus operandi and everything â this is the part i love the most.
Jared đ chuckles) Its gonna be a long war â hope you brought some chocolates because we ainât goin back to the states any time soon.
