There was more than enough money in my account to book a flight to Abuja,if only there would be a flight for me. I dashed out of the house and paid my way to the airport. There was only one flight left going to Abuja. I quickly paid and checked in. The flight was due to leave by 8pm.

Elliot
I was discharged from the hospital some days after the incident. I couldn’t believe my life had come to this. At this point,I was scared for the lives of my family members. Tasha snapped a finger before me.
“Hey,I’ve been sitting here for like five minutes.” She said.
“I’m sorry. My mind travelled love.” I placed a light kiss on her lips.
“How are you feeling?” She touched my forehead with the back of her hand.
“I’m okay apart from knowing you took me from the hospital to suffer round two on this bed.”
“Aww,I’m sorry sugar but I’m sure your ears were functioning when the doctor said you still needed rest,lots of it.” Her face turned from pitiful to fierce.
“He didn’t say you shouldn’t let me move a muscle Tasha.”
“I see you moving the muscles of your mouth right now,so your complaint is invalid.”
“God! Why did I marry this woman?” I murmured.
“Did I hear something coming from that hole?”
“Tasha!”
She giggled. “What? You want all the neighbours to know my name?” She was obviously enjoying herself to my detriment.
I shot her a stern look and she left the room,reappearing minutes later with food.
“Goodness me! Tasha,I ate barely three hours ago.”
“Better keep quiet and let me feed you.” I obeyed the order and took in each spoon she brought to me.
“Thank you darling. I don’t know what I would have done without you.”
“I am bone of your bone sir. It’s my calling to take care of you. Now,tell me something baby.”
“What’s that peach pie?”
“Don’t eat me jor,which one is peach pie again?” We both laughed and I narrowly escaped choking on the last spoon she fed me.
“You’re not serious Tash. What were you saying before I called you my peach pie?”
“Oh yeah. It’s about the gunshot.”
“Tasha please can we just drop it?”
“Not until I’m satisfied Elliot.” Her eyes glistened with determination.
“Fine. Just get on with it already.” I tore away from her searching gaze.
“Do you have any guesses concerning who would want to have you in your grave?”
“No,I don’t.” I said quickly.
“Look at me honey.” She turned my face to herself.” Look deep into my eyes and tell me the truth.” For a moment,I was trapped in the beauty of the adorable twin organs I was staring at.
“Elliot,it’s Lucious and you know it. Don’t ask any questions. Just know that I know it’s Lucious who’s behind it.” She stretched a spoon to me but I declined.
“I expected you to lose you’re appetite and you did.” She chuckled softly. “Get some rest hon.” She squeezed my palm lightly before leaving the room.
My temperature suddenly increased. If Natasha knew about Lucious, I was as good as a dead man.
A million thoughts were running through my head. I was more scared than ever. I thought I was the only one who knew he was connected to the shot that almost claimed my life. For the next couple of days,I tried to get Tasha to talk but she was as stubborn as ever. She barely said anything to me each moment we spent together. Saying I was worried was a wicked understatement.

Re: Hidden Diamonds by EvaJael(f): 9:44pm On Jul 03, 2017
Natasha
Elliot yearned to talk to me but I rebuffed all his efforts. I wasn’t ready to open the wound I had years ago. Lucious,a bi-racial dreadful drug lord. His father was South African and his mother Nigerian. I always believed that there was no drug lord That wielded as much power as he did. He was simply everywhere. Once you got into his trap,your life was ended right there.
I couldn’t still forget how I became his prey. It was after I lost my dad. I was just through with high school. Valerie and I lived like beggars after his death,sleeping in front of shops at night, even stealing to survive. One day,I went looking for money so we could eat. I was tired of stealing people’s properties. I decided to go for any manual job available to me but fate had other plans for me. I saw a sign in front of a restaurant that read “Cleaner needed urgently.” I was overjoyed as I straightened up my tattered dress and went inside. It took a lot of pleading and begging before the manager gave me the job. He looked at me with disdain. I was forced to tell him how my little sister and I were struggling to survive.
My story seemed to soften his heart. I can still remember the moment he said. “MisS Natasha,this is strictly on a trial basis.” I could still see the smaller version of me nodding mechanically,barely restraining from giving the short dark man a bear hug. I set to work immediately. For three whole months,I worked diligently for the restaurant. I was known as the ‘no nonsense cleaner’ and I couldn’t care less. Lucious was a frequent customer at the bar. I didn’t like him a bit because he had staring issues. I wasn’t the only cleaner there but he took delight in watching me like a hawk each time he came with his broad-shouldered bodyguards.
Mr. Brown,my employer pulled me to one side while I was working one afternoon. He said
“Natasha,those men over there are requesting to see you. I offered them one hour with you.”
“One hour? And you won’t pay me for the one hour lost. You know I can’t afford to miss even an hour’s pay sir.”
“I’ll pay you for the one hour Natasha. Don’t do anything rude there,I know you too well. Those men have the power to shut down this restaurant for good and render me penniless.” He warned.
“Okay sir.” I went out of his office to meet these strange humans.
“Good afternoon sirs.” I curtsied.
“Hey girl,have a seat. I’m Lucious.”He stretched his hand out for a handshake and I took it nervously.
“I’m Natasha sir.”
“Do you mind if I call you Tasha?”
“No sir.” I looked at the bigger guys nervously saying a silent but fervent prayer in my heart.
“Boys,wait for me in the car.” He ordered,not tearing his gaze from my face. He probably sensed my discomfort.
“Are you okay now Tasha?” He asked with a small smile.
“Yes sir. Thank you sir.”
“You’ll have to learn how to call me Lucious dear. Your sir thing makes me feel too old.”
“Okay sir,I mean Lucious.”
“I want to change your life Tasha. I’ve been watching you for some time now and I want to help you make it big. I’m sure this job isn’t enough to make yourself and your little sister comfortable.”
“How did you know I have a little sister sir?” He gave ne a stern look and I quickly corrected myself immediately. “Sorry Lucious.”
“Lucious knows everything sweetheart,everything,”
“Yeah right.” I scoffed.
“I heard you’re a tough one.I almost thought my informant was lying”
I looked down at the table.
“Call me before sundown.” He handed me his card as he got up from his chair.
“It’s not up to an hour yet.”
“I know. Use the remaining time to relax a bit before heading back to work.”
He left before I could say a proper thank you.
