Chapter one(The mix)

"**********************

When he left her that Thursday night,he didn't think of it as the last time he would see her. Now hearing the judge saying, " Jane Smith, due to the allegations and evidence,you are hereby sentenced to 21 years imprisonment with hard labour. Or so she said all that mattered to him was his dear mom was going to jail,the word "jail" sounded odd to him,now his mom was going to be part of it, he visualized his mom wearing a blue overall for inmates in lost city. He broke into fresh tears when he held his mom's gaze but she smiled, that was his supermom Jane Smith always relaxed even in the abyss of trials. He ran out of the court when he couldn't take it anymore, but stopped when he thought of where he was running to,the house would be so boring without his mom and the rent would be due in two days, could he really take it cool, he was just a 19 year old boy who just wrote His jamb. His stomach grumbled, he had not really taken anything solid for the past two days. No more waking up to the nice aroma of his mom's meals,he dipped his hands into his pocket and brought a fifty naira note,His last money. It would not be enough to buy a small loaf of bread and he couldn't trek to the junction to buy akara. He crossed the road to mama nonso's store, a women in her early thirties, but was so unfortunate she ended up with papa nonso,a street tout. With many mouths to feed she opened a little koisk she calls her supermarket. He smiled sadly when he remembered who he alongside his mom and few neighbours use to listen to their quarrels which was s daily norm, but here she was free,happy and going about her business when his mom was being locked up. Kester....... na wetin you wan buy na,her voice brought him out from his thoughts, mama nonso give me thirty naira biscuits, ten naira groundnut and one pure water, he replied her.

OK, I don hear, ehhen kester, I hear say your mama court case na today o, hiaa...nwayi oma, who con do that kin bad tin na... ehnn

did I tell you about her gossiping attitude,I onced advised her to go back to school and read mass communication, but today I don't have the strength for her madness.

Na so we see am oo,he replied

but she go come back today abi?.she asked

I don't know, make i de go,he replied.

hmmmm dem no de ask on a something self,she said with irritation

I now knew coming to buy from her store was a bad idea

Thank you for the mention

Thanks for the invite....nice story

@ Ouzo1,u r welcome

@ olufemiwhite,thanks dear

Don't cry here young man,your mother was a criminal and she died as one, even if she committed suicide, death is death. The female warder told him.

Now you listen,my mother was framed up,she was never..... I repeat never a criminal. He retorted.

You can say that to her corpse,I didn't kill her,she fired back.

Can I see her corpse?, please.... ma. he asked

I am sorry little boy, your momma's corpse is under the government's custody for the now. She replied

I don't understand ma,he said.

I meant until the government says something about this, her corpse remains in their possession.

He had it all at that moment, why would His mom ever think of suicide, No..... she was murdered she could never leave me all alone in this world,she was killed, he kept reciting in his head, but by whom,he asked himself. Yes the
female warder was mean and rude but she didn't strike him like a killer.

He was just a little boy who had no where to go in lost city, he couldn't even think of finding her killer now, he failed her, yes he had failed the only woman who loves him. If only his father would help,he chuckled sadly as he remembered his stepmom has a say in all his Father's decision, when was the last time he saw his father? he asked himself. I am better off on my own he said to himself but he knows sooner or later he would sought for his father. He sat in a stone on the entrance of the prison yard, he remembered everything that happened between his mom and his dad, from when they where together to
when she found out he had a mistress with a child his age, she felt betrayed and was down for days. And the only way his father could console her was to bring home his Mistress, Melissa and their child Nichole.

She changed that very day,from the ever loving and caring and smiling wife Daniel Williams,his father to someone who had no time for love, detest smiling and her world revolved around her only son. He cried when he recalled how his mom was kicked out of the house because of a crime she knew nothing about, after serving so much punishment in the hands of his Father's Mistress who tricked his father into sending her daughter abroad in his place, he moved out of the house. He could still recall that very rainy night when he left home.


(FLASHBACK)

Dad I want to see my mom. He said

kester.....don't ever mention that again, you want to see a thief right? His father asked with anger visible on his face.

My mom is not a thief, he fired back

really, did you just talk back at me kester? His father asked

am going to see her and am going now,he said with determination.

fine, go but know that once you step out of this building,you cease to be a Williams. His father threatened

am OK with that, he replied much to His father surprise,because he knew His father mistress would kill him before he had a chance to claim His inheritance.He heard his father calling in the darkness of the night but he had made up his mind.


(PRESENT)

He got up cleaned his hands and walked towards the road, he was going to spend time with his paternal grandmother, who knows she might accept him,even if she was not really a fan of His mother.

Chapter two


Dad!!!! why did you bring me here, I don't like it here in this country. You won't even let me go out, am I your prisoner?. Nichole asked

My love this is for your own good, you see, its not safe for you to go out all by yourself, that's why we employed these guards but you won't let them accompany you. Melissa stated.

Mum what do you think my friends would say, if they know I have slaves up my sleeves, I am 19 for goodness sake mum,do you get me 1 and 9, I mean 19!!!!!!;. she cried

Young lady I have tolerated you enough, this is lost city..... child,in here, its a battle for survival anything can happen,I don't give a heck about those mannerless over pampered girls you call friends,and in case you suddenly feel like going out, the guards are at the door. Daniel said

Dad......,am not going with them, watch me as I leave this estate and through that... door. Nichole replied.

Try me girl, Melissa I have seen you are slacking in teaching this girl morals,one more thing,when next I see you, you should be out of those.... rags you call clothes,in the city I am a noble man,don't disgrace me. Daniel said walking away.

, Nichole get in your room and do the right thing,Melissa said.

Are you really going to take sides with your husband mom!!!. Nichole screamed.

I see you are not afraid Nichole. Daniel said

ohhh..... please dad, the last time I checked you weren't one local deity I should be afraid of right........father.Nichole said sarcastically.

I would...( phone rings) hello,who us this.... yes Daniel Williams speaking, what!!! come again please it can't be. Daniel lamented as he slumped.

Hey what's happening, Melissa asked.

Jane is dead.he dropped the bomb,but was surprised when she started laughing

Don't tell me you are actually going to cry over her? Daniel.....,Melissa asked

Don't you get it woman,she's my wife, the mother of the Williams's heir.Daniel retroted

Cut the crap Mr husband, best husband in the world, you drive her out years ago,if she's your "wife" then what am i, must you rub it in my face that am your Mistress... hmmnnn. Melissa said

I didn't mean it that way, Daniel explained but come to think of it, the caller said she was poisoned and judging from your countenance am beginning to suspect you Melissa.

Now......my God he is calling me a murderer, Daniel are you sane...? Melissa asked

No am not, he replied sarcastically

***,continuation****


Good morning Sir, the female warder greeted smiling sheepishly as it was rare to for people like Daniel Williams are hard to find visiting the prison. Maybe if I impress him,I might get myself some tips,she thought happily.

How was she killed, he asked ignoring her greetings and smile..... hmmmm women they behave like children he said in thoughts, if if was the good old days, he might spare dome time for some flirting but he was in no mood for that,Melissa was enough problem already.

She committed suicide sir

suicide, hmmmm are you sure?. he asked smiling

yes Sir, she replied wondering why he wouldn't be smiling, who was he to the said woman these question pondered in her head.

I know you must be wondering the reason for my smile

ye...s yes sir

you see the dead Jane, bless her soul was my wife,he paused as he watched her gasp, she left long ago if she wanted to commit suicide she would have done that long ago not now that she knew I would do something to get how out of here,so this leaves us with another theory she was murdered

Sir, with all due respect no one could have done it.

Really how many of you are in these place, how can you be so sure.

All together we are 23 warders, 5 cooks and the gateman as well as some armed officers which I trust

don't get too sure of them,since I have a feeling she was murdered I would do whatever I can to see her murderer face both the wrath of the law and the society at large. he vowed.

hmmnnn this case is becoming too complicated, she sighed
*****
the man has a feeling she was murdered, its a step in discovering our mission, avert it.

I concur....

Chapter three



Kester crossed the road leading to his grandmother's house, when he saw His father walking out from the house, he tried to hide quickly but it was too late as His father had seen him already.

Come here young man,Daniel said

he walked towards him, but stopped when memories of what happened rushed through him.

Are you happy she's dead already? he asked with venom in his voice

Son why should I be happy, she was my wife,even if I know I messed up along the way but that didn't stop me from loving her, Daniel said sadly.

Love......father,love, if you had said so a Kong time ago she would have died even a happy woman.

Yes son, that's why I would do whatever I can to get her murderer, I still don't believe this story of her committing suicide, son come home with me let me make it up to you.

I would come home with father in the grounds that you must do everything to Make sure her murderer face the wrath of the law.

yes son,come and give me a hug,it's been a long time.

Father, that I agreed to come with you, does nor mean that I forgive you less.

I am sorry, I would hire Dora, she would look into the case.

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

Daniel, what is he doing here? Melissa asked

woman,that question should be directed to you, you are just my father's Mistress, am His heir,this house belongs to me. kester replied

Yes Melissa, he replied

Son, Melissa you guys should just stop this madness,please. Daniel pleaded

Mr heir to his house, have you forgotten Nichole is also his child? Melissa asked

yes Melissa his love child,kester replied sarcastically

Now, you too to your room.Daniel ordered as he stared at Melissa who midway to tears,he couldn't bare to see her cry,but he would do whatever he can to make kester comfortable.

Sorry about your health..get well soon dear.

Sir,you don't have to bring in a detective into this case,I can assure you the police is doing everything to make sure the suppose murderers of ma'am Jane smith are apprehended. The D.P.O said

the detective, Dora would help Mr d.p.o. the police are so slow. Daniel Williams said

But sir, let the police do the job, I know it seems slow but....

no buts,Daniel Williams interrupted, its final.

*"***************

Nichole woke up to her mom's nagging, she dragged herself to the bathroom, having done her hygiene, she tiptoed to the door,since the incident of the other day, she has been avoiding everyone in the house, she looked through the door and saw everywhere was calm,she thought of sneaking into the store to get some things,but she decided against it, and sneaked into the kitchen.

she was greeted by the familiar scent of food,her face brightened up,and she moved to get a plate,when she felt eyes on her.

who are you?, and what are you doing in the kitchen?. she asked the young man she saw staring st her,at first she thought he was one of the newly employed guards but he looked bold and so relaxed, she stared deeply into his eyes wondering if he was a guest ,ohhhh but no guest would venture into the kitchen alone,his eyes held her gaze until it began to draw her back to memory lane.

k....ester is this you?. she asked her face expressionless

take what you want and go back to your hideout, he replied

she looked perplexed, where was the kester who was afraid to talk back at her, who was this new kester. summoning courage she asked how dare he talk back at her.

what would you do Nichole?, His voice betraying the calm expression,His face carried.

don't forget who I am in this house kester


yes......my dear Nichole, how could I forget you are the daughter of my father's mistress, a sin in the eyes of the godly..should I go on?.he asked

ohhhh shit,mum...

Can you please take me to her corpse,detective Dora asked the mortuary attendant.

Yes MA, come with me. he replied

OK thanks.

They walked through different rooms until the came to a room ,she looked up at the inscription on the door which read, " We were once like you and soon you would be like us". she quickly muttered God forbid,the mortuary attendant looked at her and smiled, it wasn't his first time of seeing someone do that here,but the truth was no matter how you try to deny it. it was the truth.

he knocked and open the door, detective Dora looked around but found out that the room was empty with only the corpse of Jane Smith in it.

We had to move her here on the demands of sir Daniel Williams, since he thought you might not really have much time.the attendant said when he saw the confusion on her face.

OK,she replied, she looked st the wound she died from everyone knows it was a knife but there was something peculiar about that wound,she couldn't have stabbed herself with a knife and the wound would be like that, it was a wound inflicted by so much force, meaning the deceased had try to fight for her life.so it was a murder, she concluded and she vowed to find the murderer but first she would go to the police station to see the knife that was removed from her heart.

OK,I would be back, she said to the attendant who was amused that she has been staring at the dead woman's body since she came.

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

Good day, Mr d.p.o, she greeted

where is the knife that was buried in her heart? she asked

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

that's the knife,he said

she walked towards the knife and stop to stare, now it is confirmed, she pulled a little wrap from her pocket and took the knife.

why are you taking it?, the d.p.o demanded

for inspection, she replied pissed.

there is nothing, no fingerprints he said

how do you know about that

we checked.

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

boning knife, how did it get here? she kept asking herself, it was last seen since 2004. the person behind the murder was smart but I am smarter, she took her bottle of cocunut oil and poured it at the tip of the knife,cleaned it and left it.
**********************
