Ken felt on top of the world. He couldn't still phantom the idea that he will be with Steph alone through the weekend. He could remember those years he was asking her out. How she had rejected him on the ground that he never attended a University but was learning the arts of welders. Now he is fully settled and owes his own shop. He has boys working for him and could take care of a family. All thanks to Mary who saw him with his new red range rover ride on his way to the bank. He believed she must have feed Steph with stories about how rich he was now. He felt like a winner and decided to keep Steph to himself and never hurt her. She was too beautiful to be left alone. All his friends hailed him because he now dates an undergraduate even though he never saw the four walls of a University. He smiled to himself and thought, who said money cannot do anything.
Steph who just arrived few hours ago was at the bathroom, they were about to go clubbing tonight. He was going to rock her real hard tonight, turn her on that she couldn't be able to resist him. He smiled yet again as the prospects of tonight came tumbling down his naughty thoughts. His little johnny itched him. He felt he was already inside her, he couldn't wait for tonight.
Steph stepped out from the bathroom and walked to the bedroom. She retrieved the pale pink gown from her bag. She wore her undies and payed great attention to the colours that will match her outfit. The gown cut her above the knees thereby exhibiting exquisite legs that are straight, flawless and sexy. Her hips swayed back and front when she walked. She applied her make up and deodorant. she went to meet Ken as they both headed out to swingers. Ken held her waist possessively and felt proud to be associated with such a beauty.

Abeg come with your squad to criticize. Miss u guys
Oya let's go there...
Jst a short story shaa

It was past nine o'clock. Mary was still at home. Her head ached, her stomach rumbled. She anticipated a shower, the moment of stepping into it and the exquisite sensation of hot water pounding at her neck and shoulders. She has been writing an assignment that will be submitted on monday as she planned on going to the club tonight. As she was putting everything away, someone knocked on the door. She opened it and saw Paul. She was shocked because she knew her rummie had gone to Ken's house for the weekend and won't be back till sunday evening. She thought of what lie to tell Paul but couldn't find any. She was speechless but managed to greet him.
"Hi Paul."
"Hi Mary. Can I come in? Paul said.
Paul couldn't help to notice that her eyes were huge. He thrust out his hand towards her for a handshake. Her hand shook as she accepted his hand. Paul thought, She must be hiding something. Once inside the room he noticed that Steph was not there, he thought maybe she was in the bathroom or something.
"Where is Steph please?" He asked.
"Emm....she left the room since morning and never returned yet. You can call her to confirm where she is"
Mary couldn't get herself to lie. She glared steadily at Paul and discovered for the first time his cute face. Instantly she felt pity for him because she knew her friend was double dating. She imagined her married to him and it brought a smile to her face. She had been dating her departmental guy who could only provide her with a meager amount to take care of her minor needs like hair and clothing. She remembered one time she overhead Steph making demands of her school fees and house rent from Paul who always provides it as at when due. This fact irked Mary and a flame of jealousy liked at her mind, and she welcomed it. Emotions, at least, were something worth experiencing in this school environment where relationship were dry. A knife of anger plunged into her heart with the jealousy. She decided now and then that Paul deserved more than Steph was treating him. She felt obliged to help him ease his pain. She walked straight to the door and locked it, bolted and all. She faced Paul and started undressing. She was stark naked. Paul reacted to what he saw as his breathing became faster. He couldn't resist her kiss, her touch as she undressed him as well. He ended up spending the night with her.

Paul a graduate of Accounting from the famous University of Nigeria, Nzukka, currently employed as an auditor at Chevron oil company PH. His work provided him the luxury of a two bedroom flat and a Toyota Camry. He was never married, but have loved unwisely several times and currently dating. To him Steph was all he could ever want. She is a girl who has all the values of a wife to be and she was endowed with all the necessary resources that made her a beauty. He always appreciate one of flavour's song "nwata nwere something" when he thinks about his Steph. He retrieved his phone from his pocket and scrolled through his contact and dialed Steph's number. She answered at the second ring.
"Hello honey, how has your day been?" He inquired.
"It has been fine my dear" she replied. "What about yours?"
"Fine as well. Just that I miss you a lot, you know it has been up to two weeks we saw each other".
"Am sorry for that sweetheart, just busy with lectures."
"Okay. Can you come around this weekend?"
"No. I can't , we have a field trip so I won't be available. Maybe next weekend." She said softly.
"Alright. No problem. Take care. I love you."
"Love you too. Bye."
Paul felt hurt. It kept ringing in his head that Steph has been avoiding him for some days now. Reasons best known to her. He decided to pay her a surprise visit. Yea....that's the right thing to do. He smiled.

Steph sat in the small room pensively sipping her tea. Guilt nagged at her for leaving Paul alone for so many days, but she reasoned that he was beginning to chafe at her mothering him and was probably delighted to be fending for himself, as a man.
Mary her roommate came in with sparkling eyes and Steph could tell she had news. "Darling, the most extraordinary thing! Ken is in town, I saw him on my way home".
"Oh, no!" Cried Steph, all her lovely prospects lying shattered at her feet and a small curve of fear threatening to knot inside her stomach. She saw her situation clearly, knew she was in danger of getting her fingers badly burn as she would constantly be between two fires, but the simple truth hit her.
She had chosen them both
She was going to get one out of the two
It was fate
The corners of Steph's mouth turned up in a secret little smile. "I think I'll borrow that pale pink outfit of yours today".

Tina was extremely worried. They'd said that they'd be home anytime soon and it was now ten o'clock. She couldn't think of a single explanation for this. She'd turned on the news earlier to see if there had been anything about accidents on the road but there had been nothing. She sat nervously at the living room. Before they left, James had strictly warned her to stay indoors and await their return. But now, she was scared and hysterical.

She paced around the tiny living room, willing them to come home, squeezing her eyes tightly closed and visualizing her car pulling up in front of her house. When she finally did hear an engine, she knew it was her car. She ran outside, flung open the door just as Irele stepped out of the car alone.

'What kept you so long and where is uncle James?' She inquired. Irele was speechless because she didn't have the right words to say. She was visibly shaken by the incident coupled with the fact that her uncle is still a victim in the hands of Daniel.

On a closer look, Tina noticed a great change in Irele's outfit. Her hair was disorganized and a dirt lay evidently on her short blue gown. She was barefooted and she held her left hand as if it will fall if she were to let it go. Tina got worried the more and led her inside the house. She felt Irele's body shivering as she whimpered quietly. Once inside the house, Irele gathered up strength to tell her all that happened.

After describing all to Tina, Irele felt better. She sat quietly to think out what next to do. She dipped her hand into her jean pocket and felt something inside. She slipped out a phone, her uncle's phone. Unknowingly he had slipped it when Daniel walked into his office. She went through his dialed calls and a name got her attention. She dialed the number and at the second ring, the call was answered.
'Hello. Mr. Peter,'. Please help me, my uncle's life is at stake.
'What is the problem? Where are you? I guess you are Irele.' Peter said.
'I am Irele and can only tell you better when we see.' My uncle trusted you, so I can trust you as well'
'Okay. You can come to the station."
'Thank you sir.' She said as she ended the call.
She informed Tina that she will be going back to Portharcourt because she had no other choice and she knew nobody to confide to here at Lagos. Just as she was about to go into the room to pack her bags her phone rang. She retrieved it from the back pocket of her jeans, the caller I.D showed Samson. She picked it up immediately.

'Is that Irele?' The voice at the other end was nervous.
'Yes'
'There had been an accident and your number was the last the owner of the phone dialed, please can you come to LASUTH to identify the body.
Irele felt her grip on the phone tighten so much she thought she was going to shatter it. She felt dumb and tears rolled down her eyes. She felt heavy and her leg unable to carry her, she slumped and fainted. Tina rushed to hold her but she was too late. She has already rolled to the floor.

END OF CHAPTER THIRTEEN

***********************************

Daniel needed to get back home. He couldn't stay in the office all day, worrying about the code. He had left home since a week now. He needed a good bath, a good meal and a good sleep. He walked out of the office, locked it and walked down the stairs to his car and zoomed off. He was almost home when he remembered that the clothes he wore throughout the week which he planned to give to his cleaner was at the office. He reversed his car and headed back to the office.

Irele and James arrived and walked inside the building which housed many offices. They didn't know the exact location of Daniel's office. They got to the reception and James spoke up.
'Good day lady,' he greeted the receptionist and then flipped open his I.D. 'We are here on an investigation, kindly direct us to the office of Mr. Daniel Akintola.'
'Okay sir. I hope no problem?' She inquired.
'No problem.' He replied.
She gave them the directions and he thanked her for her co-operation. He inserted his I.D back to his pocket to create a mental picture of diligent attribute in the heart of the receptionist as they walked purposely towards Daniel's office. James brought out his tools and cracked the door open. They walked in and immediately started the search. They searched everywhere but found nothing. Just as they had concluded that the document was not stored in the office, they prepared to leave but then the door opened and someone walked in.
"Well, well, well , what do we have here" Daniel said with a smirk on his face as he stepped into his office. James flinched and drew Irele closer to himself. Evidently his protective instinct kicked in. He swore to save her even at the verge of death.
Daniel stared at them for a while, retrieved his gun and pointed it towards them ready to release fire which will take the life of any one among the duo. He recognized Irele immediately even though her face was quite hidden behind her uncle.
'What have you done with the codes? James asked. 'You cannot tell me you will kill me just like that and not be caught?'
'Can't I?' Daniel asked silkily. 'I can do anything I please. I am master of my own'. He laughed deep in his throat, reached out the gun and pointed it on his forehead, but James shrugged and spat out. 'Damn you to hell,'.
'That's it!' Daniel exploded. Don't say I didn't warn you.' He hit him twice on the face with the gun which instantenously blinded him and he lost conscious. James staggered and his hold on Irele was loosed, she sprawled on the ground with a thud. She felt a stark of pain around her left hand ankle. Immediately she bolted for the door but Daniel reached out strong hands to take her by the shoulder, but she shrugged from him and ran. She didn't know what else to do and had no other option.

Irele ran out of the office and headed towards the corner where they parked Tina's car. She was so thankful that she had keys but was disturbed about the fate of her uncle in the hands of the monster named Daniel. Her hands shaked as she inserted the key to the car and unfortunately the ignition failed to start. Just then, Daniel ran out of his office as well and strode purposely towards her. He shot, aimed to destroy the tires so she won't be able to drive out. Luck seems to be on her side because just then the car started and she drove with all her might out of the vicinity. Daniel swore under his breadth as he watched her leave. He ran back into the house.

James could hear footsteps outside. He knew he wasn't living some sort of dream, but what he didn't know was exactly where he was and why. He was not quite ready to open his eyes yet because really that would take far too much effort. He was incredibly tired. His arms and legs were too heavy to lift and he simply didn't have the energy to make the effort. He felt bad about this because he knew that he should at least try. But he didn't want to. He knew too, that......that....... He struggled to remember, and at last it came to him. Irele! He sprung up on his feet unsteadily just as the door opened and Daniel walked in, and this time his face was filled with rage.
'Where is my sister?' He asked.
'She escaped.' Daniel answered matter of factly.
'What have you done with the codes? James asked. 'You cannot tell me you will kill me just like that and not be caught?'
Daniel ignored him and asked him 'How can I decipher the third code?'
James stared at him continually with an empty expression. This act raged Daniel, he cocked the gun and shot his left leg. James cried out in pain but still remained silent. He asked him the same question over and over again but his refusal to answer nor to say not even a word perplexed him, he shot him again at the same spot. The pain was intense on James, he fell on the floor and blood spilled all over the room. He felt faint after some minutes and all he could remember before he blacked out was the face of the man who is intent on sniffing his dear life. And just then he lost consciousness again and embraced the darkness.

TITTLE__--__ Just a Tale...a wild goose chase

'What do you mean the code is not cracked yet?' Daniel leaned across leader of the IT team's desk, his hand tripping a stack of papers, scattering them to the floor.
His expression placid, the leader ran a hand over his thinning gray hair, adjusted his tie and straightened his shoulders. 'Sir, you should understand that we are not the machine, but we are really trying....' Before he could finish his statement, Daniel shot him twice and he slumped and rolled on the floor. 'Now listen all of you, by the time I return here in the next 30 seconds, I want to be welcomed with a result.' He said and walked out aggressively.

*************************************

He'd bought the lie. It had been a spur of the moment fib born from desperation, but now that she'd made the claim, there was no turning back. Irele was not yet convinced on how to retrieve the document but she had lied to her uncle that she had a plan. All she did was acting on impulse and instinct not with reasoning as a rational being. After their arrival at the airport and once she had called her friend Tina to stay put at home to wait for them, she had confidence that as time goes on she will have a plan.

Tina sat in silence at her living room for a few minutes in wait for Irele's arrival. She took a book that she'd bought out of her bag, by LarrySun. She opened it at the beginning and began to read. Tina stopped reading as the door bell rang. She'd reached the third chapter of 'Black Maria', the chapter where Peter Black discovered that the new occupants of his father's house had cemented the whole compound thereby trapping his parents to earth. She folded the page to enable her know where she stopped as she walked and opened the door. She'd more or less expected to see Irele and James but she hadn't expected to see the guy and the lady. She frowned slightly as she tried to work out the implications of what she was seeing, she was surprised.
'Helo, Irele. James,' she said and nodded towards Tess and Samson's direction.
'Tina.' Irele was the one who reacted first.
'Please come in and be seated'.
They all walked into her living room and sat down. Irele informed Tina about the reason she returned back to Lagos after her mother's burial. Tina apologized for not been in attendance and gave her condolence. After the story, they decided to get to work immediately so as not to give Daniel opportunity to decipher the codes. Irele and James were assigned to Daniel's office and Tess with Samson were to check out his house. Their aim was to know the exact location of the document. Immediately Tess and Samson left with the car they came with, Irele and James also drove off with Tina's car. Tina was alone in the house, she went up to her room and switched on her computer. She opened the web browser and typed in the word 'Uranium'. There was a great deal of information and lots of different stories, but all of it came down to the same thing. Nobody knew. Nobody could be sure. Nobody could predict where it could be found.
'Why?' She muttered as she leaned her head against the screen. She felt for her friend Irele because it all seems they are on a wild goose chase.
