Everybody got up at once, some searched for their phones in the bucket and they got it while some could not find their own. It was 5am when a group of DSS agents came to take the senator and his friends’ home, madame was shaken and lost for words while most of the staff left the club immediately with the remaining guests. Nobody wanted to wait for the sun to come up, everybody wanted to leave as soon as possible. I went to one of the rooms and brought my backpack and put the money inside it before I left the club without speaking to anyone, I got to my room and locked the door. I brought out the bundle and tossed it into my bag, I didn’t bother to look at the notes since it was not bulky besides I already calculated the amount to be about 50k. I lay down thinking of the ordeal I just went through until sleep came and I didn’t resist it.
Hunger woke me up and I had to go out and look for what to eat. I came back satisfied, took my bath before I checked the money I brought home. I looked at the bundle with shock, I had to wipe my eyes to be sure it wasn’t a dream. The bundle contained 100 dollar notes, I hid it under my pillow and checked to see if my door was locked, I also drew the curtains just in case someone was watching me. I felt excited and cold all of sudden, so many thoughts went through my mind and I wondered how I was going to change it because I had no idea how to do that. I hid it in a secure place and the next couple of days I rarely left my room except to the club when we were summoned for interrogation by the policemen who were assigned to investigate the robbery incident. We were interrogated twice and it seemed everyone had well-rehearsed lines except me, who kept adding and subtracting information. One of the policemen was a bit sympathetic, he felt I couldn’t cope with the trauma that came with the incident but I was scared that someone would accuse me of taking money. Some of the staffs resigned without waiting for their salaries while some had made up their mind to leave by the end of the month. The security men were always present at the interrogation so nobody could tell if any of them were among the robbers. I had no idea who was among them that day since I don’t easily recognize people’s voices. The club was shut down indefinitely while the investigation was going on, I had to rely on Justina to help me with the exchange but I didn’t tell her the amount, she even offered to go with me but I told her not to bother since she had already called person to let him to know I was coming. I took 200 and I was successful so I told the man to expect more some days later. I decided to leave and maybe travel to an African country with the funds I had. I wanted to be as far away as possible, Justina had told me about her relocation to Dubai but I wasn’t sure I wanted to hang around her again so I told her I wasn’t interested. It took me four weeks to get the necessary travel documents and I had to pack out when my rent expired. I sent the little furniture I had home and also visited my family but I didn’t tell them which country I was heading to yet……

The Red king did not reopen again and everybody was laid off. I didn’t bother to go and find out if I would collect any salary because Madame Nora traveled to London and no one knew when she would come back besides I had no time to do so because I was too busy with my travel plans, I decided to travel to Seychelles (that was what I could afford at that moment) and spend some time there before thinking of the next thing to do. THE END
