--continuation--
The remains of the bomb blast victims were being transferred to waiting ambulances amidst tears from on lookers. Tina stood quite a distance watching as people burn beyond recognition are being moved, tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Hey!" Mark said standing beside her.
Her face lit up instantly. "Hi." She replied, but her face fell immediately she saw the sullen look on his face. "Any problem?" She asked.
"No... Nothing. I just felt I failed." He replied.
Tina was shocked to the marrow. If it wasn't for the mood in the air, she would have jumped up twice in happiness. For the first time in months, Mark was looking sober. And not only that, he admitted that he failed. Afterall, the Mark Ashimolowo of this world don't fail. Neither do they make mistakes.
"How do you mean?" Tina replied.
"I felt I was responsible for the deaths of these people." He replied pointing to the victims.
"No, you are not. You should be commended. I think I am the one who failed, because it is my duty to be there beside you and assist you. But where was I when N.A.T.U was under attack? Lagos traffic." Tina replied.
"The ones I felt for most are the two patients in the ICU." Mark said.
"The ICU?" Tina asked to be sure.
"Yeah... The intensive care. An elderly man and a young lady." He replied.
"Oh my God!" Tina gasped as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Mark looked at her in suprise, why the tears? He asked himself.
"Hey guys." Collin's greeted from behind.
Mark turned to face his boss who obviously was in tears too, but the hankie in his hand was doing justice to the freely flowing tears.
"What's wrong with her?" Collins asked with a shaky voice, much to the chagrin of Mark who couldn't place why the Director of the now-reduced-to-ruins terror agency headquarters would be in tears, when he was expected to console his crying subjects.
"Tina, is anything the matter?" Collins asked, but was even more shocked when Tina hugged him like her life depended on it.
"Nigerians have problems." Mark concluded.
"I just heard about Vannesa. Am very sorry." Tina cried.
"Its nothing. Am just glad she lived a worthy life." Collins replied, this time his tears flowing freely.
"May her soul rest in perfect peace." Tina prayed.
"Amen." The three of them chorused, even though Mark didn't know whose soul they are praying for, but he in his short stay in Nigeria had learnt to say amen to every prayers and rebuke every curse, because in 'Naija' they tend to manifest. And the last thing Nigerians want is a curse preventing a prayer from manifesting.
"The president sent his words." Collins said as he cleaned his eyes and immediately walked away.
"What's wrong with him?" Mark asked.
"He lost his sister." Tina replied.
"His sister, Vannesa?" Mark asked.
"Yeah." Tina replied.
"She is a patient in the medical wing. Wasn't she the one that tipped us about Clara killing this computer girl last month?"
"She is, but her health situation worsened last week and had since been moved to Intensive care." Tina replied.
"Oh my God! I had the chance to save her." Mark said regretably. "But guess who asked me to leave her, Collins did."
His mind flashed back to the short encounter he had with Collins inside the ICU. He remembered the strange act of Collins where he threw a small sized book at the lady just before they fled the building.
"I'll be back in a jiffy." Mark said as he walked up to Collins.
"Hey man!" He extended his hand for a handshake which Collins took. "Am sorry about your sister. Vannessa."
"Thanks man. She likely won't make it out of the ICU alive even with all the treatment. The doctors said they were buying time for her, but she'll still die. Its just painful to see her die this way. I mean, she has been on sick bed for months, enduring the pain, and instead of dying peacefully, she had to go through another round of agony. Its a pity." Collins tried to fight back tears.
"Shake it off and be a man. At a point in our lives, we will definitely loose someone close to us. A friend, a close relative, parent or even a colleague at work. All we have to do is put it behind us, no matter how difficult it may seem and forge ahead." Mark preached.
"Thanks man, I appreciate." Collins said.
"Anytime." Mark replied before walking away.
He returned to where he left Tina to find her talking to a light complexioned man in suit.
"Hey Mark! Meet Tony, I bet you have met before." Tina said.
"Yeah. The FBI guy." Mark said before walking away leaving Tony's hand hanging.
"Crazy being." Tony muttered.
Tina laughed. "That's his own way. He gave me the same attitude the first time we met."
"Tell him this is Nigeria." Tony hissed.
"So tell me. How did it happen?" Tony asked.
"I can't explain it. You know. Cos, I wasn't around when the whole thing happened." Tina replied.
"That's serious. And there are no witnesses whatsoever?" Tony asked.
"None at all." Tina replied.
"What of your boy? I heard it in the news."
"He already did his bit. He's said all he saw and we are working on his lead for now." Tina replied.
"Tina!" Collins called from afar.
Tina hurriedly walked towards her boss.
"Mobilise everybody. The ministry is sending vehicles, we are moving into the FBI headquarters for now." He instructed.
"FBI? Why?" Tina asked.
"Tina, no question. Just do as I say. Those with their personal cars can go in their car." Collins instructed.
"Right away." Tina said as she scurried away.
"And instruct all level four and above agents to wait behind." Collins shouted.
By now, the blast scene was becoming almost empty as every ambulance had left with two or more victims while onlookers have been driven far away from the scene by the stern looking men of the Nigerian Army.
"Tony, I have an assignment right now. Maybe we'll talk later if you are still around."
"Okay, but can I speak to your son, for a minute or two." He requested.
"No, you can't." A deep masculine voice replied.
A strong hand grabbed Tina's left arm and dragged her towards her car, walking past Tony in in the process.
"Mark, what's the matter?" Tina asked.
"You should leave." Mark replied.
"What? Why?"
Mark opened the door of the driver side. "You have been through a lot today alone. You should go home and rest. Moreso, Christopher is not safe. He is everywhere in the news, everyone would want to ask him question, and the terrorists are watching him right now." Mark explained.
And without struggle, Tina hopped into the car, switched on the ignition.
"I'll talk to you later." With this, she backed out of the parking lot, made a U-turn and drove out of the gate.
"Bye Madam." A soldier manning the gate said.
Tina stretched her hand to the back seat where she picked her suit and covered a sleeping Christopher with it.
Then she saw him standing beside a black Range rover sport, 2013 model. Her greatest nightmare. Daniel Martin. Immediately, she stepped on the gas and sped off, but much to her chagrin, he ran into his car and followed.

Abi na. because if i were Daniel, i would use 2baba style/method. Fisherman no dey throw net for only one point in a river na. If Tina could giv him christopher, Mag can giv him christian, all na chris.
But i luv Adeola's emotional stability or big heart. Forgiveness is one of d most difficult thin.
