Okay, I just started this beautiful story and my heart is shrivelling.

Chai.

Please I don't see what the issue is o. This matter could have been settled in days (I'm still where Samuel had Anita arrested though)

The date Anita started posting Tamara will be there na. Samuel claimed to have posted on Wattpad. Make e show his Wattpad account na.

Anyhow...

Nice story bro.

Two thumbs way way up

sly12345:
You didn't summit your story because you thought you'll not win, someone else took the risk and won and now you want the money, God will punish you Anita.

Silver please make sure you suffer her, she might later have sense.

This is so... I don't even know what to say.

Economic right is the right to make financial proceeds from the fruit of your ideas. And just because a work is posted on Nairaland doesn't mean it doesn't have copyright. Once a work is fixed on a relatively permanent medium eg paper, web, etc. It is fixed for the purposes of copyright.

Registration of works is only to answer the question who was first in time.

Moral right is the RIGHT TO BE RECOGNIZED AS THE CREATOR OF A WORK.

So therefore, Anita had every right to moral and Economic benefits from the work. She didn't submit her story yes but she is entitled to be recognized as the author.

For example in the Commonwealth Short Story Prize, translated works are awarded along with the original writer who may not have 'submitted' the story.

EPISODE 30
EPISODE TITLE-Until you lose it all








Rage build like deep currents inside Samuel as he glare at Susan, once more the hot slap came slamming his face over and over, it infuriated him more, his fingertips deep more into his palm and just when he was about reacting, Festus hold him dragging him back against every effort to send back what was received from his enemy..

Henry did same, carrying Susan back and stopping her from going any further to Samuel..

"How dare you..?"Samuel yell struggling to free from Festus hold, his rage nearly consuming him..

Susan nearly pounce on him but Henry hands around her waist hold her back, she slapped his hand turning her head vigorously, the animosity of the rage thrumming through her veins making her mince with a scream that came as a loud uproar......

"Devil..."Susan shouted at the top of her voice.........

From where Success stood, she could imagine the powerful resentment Susan has towards Samuel.., anyone in her shoes will probably do same.., wanting not to be seen, she retrace herself back into a corner, with the hugh tension in the air, no one would probably look her way.., she hid and watch from a corner as every action unfold right before her eyes...

Once more, Samuel let his eyes dig into hers, almost at the verge of choking in his rage.., she slapped him.., no one, not even in his secondary school days has anyone slapped him and he didn't clap back.., this is a slap in his face and if he doesn't react, he'll never be at peace...

"You monster.."Susan yelled again troting forward but her steps were limited by Henry's hold on her...."I swear to God you're going to pay for everything you did to my friend.."She added, going breathless with anger....

"Get out of here.."Festus hollered holding Samuel back..
Susan stare angrily at him, nearly suffocating on her fury...

"Let's get out of here...."Matthew said

Susan ignored him and listen to the fury twisting inside of her, once again, she tried walking towards Samuel but Henry's hands on her hold her back.., it infuriated her, her irritation flared and she mentally snapped by hitting Henry's jaw with her elbow...

Pain erupted from the point of contact and for a second, Henry lost hold of her, Susan took the opportunity and was about running towards Samuel when the least person she expected to stop her hold her back...

"Hey hey hey.."Matthew said in a rush as he grab her hand...

Susan raised her furious gaze to her with the alertness of the words...

"Let me handle this okay.."Matthew said with a cringe at where Samuel was standing...

"Please do..."Henry chimes in taking Susan from her ...

Susan's angry gaze shift from the two men by her side to Samuel, once again the reminder of everything he has done to Anita came running back into her head pushing her against every boundary of her limits...

Anger festering on Samuel, he clenched his fist once again as he weigh the pros and cons of enacting a possible and deadly payback..., she hit him.., she will pay, she and her friend will pay..

"Just let it go okay.."Festus stated gently...."She's not worth it..."

Matthew took a deep breathe, for a moment he just stood looking at Samuel, then he took a step and then another till he got to the gate.., he stood as if waiting for permission to cross over.., his head brood over everything he's been told about Samuel, how he arrested his sister and had her mad after stealing her story.., curiosity festered on him prompting him forward.....

Samuel looks daggers at him, his brows drew together as questions of where he has met him rumbled in his head....

"I heard you stole my sister's story..."Matthew stated concentrating on his words rather than dwell in thoughts of his sister...

Samuel quickly and forcefully free his hand from Matthew's hold before he bore his eyes on Matthew....."I stole no one's story.."He scowled....

"Did you arrest her..?"Matthew ask, his edge of irritation returning in a full force...

"I can have you arrested too..."Samuel retorted..."Where you stand is my property and you're trespassing.. , so get the hell out of my house.."

"Did you make my sister mad...?"Matthew queried

"Get out.."Samuel hollered

"Did you make my sister mad..?"Matthew yelled..

"He didn't..."Festus chime in...."Don't believe whatever that girl tells you.."

"I'm not talking about that girl, I'm talking about my sister.."Matthew retorted, his rage becoming a cold shoulder of suppressed anger...

Susan holds still, staring at Samuel , eyes locked right on him as he spout lies after lies, There is a wrinkle in her nose that has nothing to do with a coming sneeze, muscles tight, jaw clenched..., then her eyes caught something, someone behind Samuel and Festus..., her brain scrabbled to believe who she's seeing.., finding it hard to believe, she fixated her eyes on the person approaching them.., she quickly recognise her.., she still wore that expression of betrayal, the same expression she had on when she slept with Anita's boyfriend years ago..., then she took a step, a step towards the friend who had betrayed them before and showing her ugly carcass again.., she took another step slowly freeing herself from Henry's grip, her steps striking an epic series of movie-stills, fists moving as her face contorts into an expression she's never worn before....

Success stopped in her tracks as everyone fix their gaze on her, her eyes moved from Samuel to Matthew and then to Susan, she felt a tightening in her throat as if she's been strangled as she locked gaze with Susan..., the rage in Susan eyes held all the power of a wildfire, she could practically see the flames roaring in her eyes, ready to ignite anything that she came in contact with..
She suck in a deep breathe before she shift her gaze from her and finally settled them on Matthew...

"He's telling the truth...."Success said, the alertness of the words carrying a blow that shook the heart of everyone who heard it..

"The story is his.."Success added before the shock could fade from their faces..

Susan's brain went on overdrive as it picked every moment that she'd spent with Success. The memories weighed down on her but instead of breaking even more, her heart turned ice cold and slunk into nothingness as her brain took complete control. The anger in her stomach rose up to her chest and crawling through her veins, took over the rest of her body. Her fingers coiled into fists.., waves of fury rolled off her as she took another step, when Henry's hand pull her back, she shift her angry gaze at him and forcefully pull off from him....

"Liar.."Susan yelled turning to face Success...

"Then I guess Anita never told you then.."Success said regaining her lost composure..., Festus was right, she has to choose a side..., she's doing the right thing by picking the millionaire's side even if it means bringing some old friends down....

"Never told her what...?"Matthew queried immediately

"I was there when Anita sold the story to an anonymous person and this anonymous person happens to be Samuel..."Success said

Lips curled, Susan drew closer...."Anita will never sell her story.."

"She didn't tell you.."Success fling back..."Because she knows you wouldn't be happy..., she sold Tamara out and Samuel won the competition with it..., she told me herself she needed money for her father's hospital bill...., that's why she sold it and lose every right to the story.."

Susan nibbed her lips and walk closer but Henry hold her to refrain her from going any further....

"Is this true..?"Matthew ask shifting his gaze to Susan..

Frown lines encroaching on her forehead, Susan look at him, right there it occured to her Matthew wouldn't do anything just as he wasn't able to do anything to get Anita from the hospital.., she ignored his question and fused her whole attention on Success.....

"Betray us once..."Susan said trying hard to keep her cool....."Betray us twice..., shame on you.."

Success eyes widened, then she fold her hands and wore a lousy taunting smile..."If saying the truth means betraying..., then I think betraying needs to be redefine...."

Susan scoffs as she move her gaze from Success to Festus and then to Samuel....."I don't know how you manage to make my friend mad..."She said, her anger building back...."But I promise you one thing Samuel, you'll regret everything you've ever done to us..., everything you love, everything you hold dear and care for will be taken away.., I swear on my parents grave, until you're reduce to nothing but a tattered, necessitous peasant, I'll have no rest.."

"Are you threatening me..?"Samuel queried...

"Enjoy your wealth while it last.."Susan said, then she returned her gaze to Success, without a word to her, she spun around...

"Let's go Henry..."She said walking away....

"Matthew..."Henry mutter..

Matthew hesitated before he followed Henry, together they ran to catch up with Susan...

Heaving in a deep breathe, Festus let go of Samuel and trot towards the gate to bolt it......"Good riddance to bad rubbish.."He muttered..

Once again Samuel's fist clenched, Susan's words replaying over and over in his head.., he'll make her and her friend pay, not just for the slap but for threatening him..., she threw the first blow, now he'll show them that without money..man is useless...

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







The dark room was like a place out of time, a place to rest without consequence, but for nurse Titi, it was a place of torment, a place she wished she'll never be..., but her greed led her to this place..and an intincts tells her it will be her final destination...

When the door open, the turn on of the switch streamed in the bulb light in its bold confidence, Nurse Titi shut her eyes for a second only to reopen them to see two men standing at the door, one was of the men who had brought her there and the other was the one she had met in the company, the one she had told everything...the one she threatened....

"Hello..."Mr Smith said dragging a bench not far from where nurse Titi was tied to himself...,in all confidence, he sat down and position himself to face her....."Ungag her.."He said to the men beside him..

The man wasted no time before he trot towards nurse Titi and took out the gag from Nurse Titi's mouth...

Nurse Titi heaved in a deep breathe the moment the gag came out from her mouth.., regaining herself and filtering in more breathe, she raise her head to face him......"You.."She said, her brain trying to fathom the reason why he would kidnap her....."Are you working for Samuel..?"

"No.."Mr Smith said with the intentions of reclining his back but quickly realise the bench has no resting side...."As a matter of fact Samuel knows nothing about this..."

"So it's you then.."Said nurse Titi..."You're the bastard who brought me here..., I've done nothing to you.."

"Nothing..!"Mr Smith reiterate...."You threatened the company, do you remenber that..?"

Nurse Titi frown at the bitter truth...."My fight is with Samuel.., you have to let me go.."

"Samuel was rewarded by the company you threatened...., hypothetically.., Samuel is part of the company..., if I let you go, you'll go public and whatever you dished out from your mouth won't only affect Samuel but the company as well and everything will fall back to me and I've worked so hard to get to this stage of my life...., if you go public, the press takes the news.., the news get heated and everyone will begin to answer questions..., the CEO, our sponsors and me and you know the irony of it.., if my answers are not favourable, I lose my job...."

"So what are you going to do...kill me..?"Nurse Titi queried.., fear slowly creeping from the pot of her stomach, but she kept her facade..., showing weakness will only make it worse...

"Well that totally depends on what you tell me..."

"I've told you everything.."She retorted..."Samuel made Anita mad after he stole her story.."

"I'm not talking about Anita.. "Mr Smith blare out.., then he took a breather to reduce the tempo of his voice ...."You spoke about a recording of your conversation with Samuel...., I want that recording, tell me where it is and I'll let you go.."

Nurse Titi scoffs quickly realising she could use the recording as a leverage...."You know that's my only weapon against Samuel, if I give it out, my testimony becomes useless..."

"Let me help you rephrase that.."Mr Smith said.."If you don't give it to me, you'll die.."

Cold chills ran down nurse Titi's spines....."How do I know you won't kill me after I give to you..."

"Well you just have to trust me.."

"Trust you...!"She reiterates.."How could I possibly trust a man who sent thugs to have me kidnap...

"Where is it..?"Mr Smith cut in angrily..

"In safe hands..."Nurse Titi fling back, her voice carrying a thread of anger that could burn through mental.. "Kill me if you want, the truth will still be out and the company you so care for..., it's integrity will be questioned.. "

"I'm going to ask one last time.."Mr Smith said extending his left arm to the thug standing beside him.., when the thug gave him a gun and a silencer, Nurse Titi knew right there, her life was hanging on a thread.....

"Where is the recording....?"Mr Smith ask as he rolled the silencer on the gun muzzle..

Nurse Titi heart races, adrenaline flooding her system as she fixed her eyes on the gun, then she assured herself she shouldn't be scared...he's just threatening her with the sight of the gun....

"You should know I told someone if he doesn't hear anything from me before the end of today..., he should send the recording out.."Nurse Titi said."So it's just like I said.., weather you kill me or not, the truth about Samuel will still be out.."She nibbed, her head bouncing with different thoughts.."Or we could come to a compromise..., let's ruin Samuel together.., I make a statement that debars your company, your company stay safe, Samuel is ruined and we all go home happy....."

"You're an essential risk and a threat..., tell me where the recording is.."

"That's my only leverage.."She stated angrily.."I let it go and I'm done for.. "

"You're right.."Mr Smith said..."You're done for.."He sniffed, look at the thug before reverting his gaze to her..."I guess I'll just to find another way to get that recording...."He said, exhale, then he hold the trigger and just when nurse Titi was about talking..he pulled the trigger....

The bullet went straight for Nurse Titi's head and her blood splashed on the wall releasing her to the cold hands of death...

"Dispose her body.."Mr Smith said handling the gun back to the thug..."And I want you to find out where she stays, who she talks to..I want that recording found..."

"Yes boss.."







******************
The night rides in the horse of pure darkness, Susan found the darkness strange and scary, This was a blackness that she couldn't recall seeing before - one that was almost absolute. When she tilted her head skyward she could see clearly millions of bright stars dotted on the black canvas of night, yet none of that light seemed to filter far enough down to make any difference when she turned her eyes away...., her heart clouded with not just the horrors of the night but fear..the fear she had cloth right the very moment she mastered the idea of going to nurse Titi's house again....., earlier she had a serious argument with Henry about going to nurse Titi's house, she had told him to accompany her to the house but he was adamant to the fact.., said she should forget since Anita brother had decided her fate.., added no matter what she find out, it won't make any difference.., Matthew already believe Anita sold the story so she could cater for their sick father....

She clung her jacket to herself to wear off the cold threatening to tear her skin apart.., she remenber the words she said to Samuel and those words have driven her to take this action.., she knew it wasn't right, a young girl threading on a street of terror in the pure blackness of the night..., but she needed to know the truth, Anita went mad after leaving the hospital and since Doctor Bright isn't in the position to answer any of her questions.., Nurse Titi is her last option and in exposing the truth she feels Nurse Titi Will play a vital role..

She got to the gate of the house only to notice it was wide open.., fear crippled her mind.., her heart slamming hard against her chest...

She took a breather and quickly took out her phone, she glance at her time, it was 8:23pm...,, she breathe slowly allowing every fear she was feeling to elude her.., she pan her phone torchlight round before she walked in..., the compound was just the same way it was earlier.., quiet, deserted, scary....

Fear circling her mind, she stepped inside the compound and quickly head straight for Nurse Titi's house..., no light was put on inside the house and it made her wonder if anyone was in..., she pan her torchlight in the window, noticing no one was in, she walked towards the door and knock.., then she turn down the knob, surprisingly, the door open..

For a moment she stood and dance to the tone of her fear.., earlier on when she came she had tried opening the door, it was locked...., she walked in, the echoe of her steps sending a reminder to her she is threading on dangerous ground...

She pan her torchlight around, the house was scattered, chairs and tables turned upside down, the sudden thought that someone was in the house scared her to death.., for a second, she stood frozen to the spot as different thoughts began to bounce around in her head...

Her heart echoing, she stepped forward, a creaking glass sound quickly sent a signal to her brain she had stepped on something.., she pan the torchlight on her toes, she had stepped on nurse Titi's picture....., she took another deep breathe and it occured to her nurse Titi isn't in the house.., from the way the house was turned upside down, anyone could tell someone was looking for something..., what could it be and who could it be....

"Nurse Titi.."She mutter but no reply came..

She sigh realising her efforts coming to nurse Titi house has been nothing but a waste of time, she look around a little bit, then she turn around with the intentions of leaving but her elbow hit something.., the clattering and clanking sound sending a signal to her brain she had broken something ..., her heart jumped for a second, when she was settled she glance downward, her phone torchlight following the direction of her face, she notice it's a flower vase that fell and broke.., she was about walking out when her eyes caught something.., she look down again and notice it was a flash drive and a paper.., she bow down.., her eyes widened with extreme shock when she read the words written in the paper..

"Oh God.."She mutter with pants breathe wondering why nurse Titi Will hid a paper saying her discussion with Samuel and a flash drive in a flower vase.., then she looked at the house again.., someone was looking for something..what if they were looking for a flash drive..

Her brain went overdrive before she look at the flash drive again and quickly plugged it to her phone, she entered it and just one voice recording was in the content...., curiosity dawned on her, she entered the recording and played it..

Her feet nearly collaspe her body as she listened to the conversation between nurse Titi and Samuel...., she was right...., Samuel and Nurse Titi, they made Anita mad.., they made her best friend mad...

Her heart race when she heard a sound.., she turned with the alertness of the sound.., she pan her torchlight only to hear the footsteps of someone, someone that isn't her....., right there she realise she isn't the only one in the house......

I hope the other person in the house isn't who I'm thinking.

I don't know but I think nurse Titi death was kinda painful, that Mr Smith is really wicked.

Susan better run from the place before that person whoever he is comes out

Thanks for the update.

Is Susan an investigative journalist or CID, I'm sure nurse titi have not retire from her nursing job. What did her hospital do when she was absent from work for 2 days or is she on leave. When Susan see that no body is not at nurse titi house, what give her audacity to search another person house. I'm sure the next person that enter the house should be police

Do you remenber when Susan went to the hospital to find nurse Titi, the person she asked told her they've been trying to reach her but she isn't answering her calls, as for Susan going into someone's house like that, I think is a bad call, she can be easily framed, I just hope Mr Smith haven't dump nurse Titi body in the house and called the police.

Thanks for the update

I just hope it's not the bad people

Please I need Susan to be safe so that she can ruin Samuel

Nothing must happen to Susan oo. Thanks for the update

EPISODE 31
EPISODE TITLE-Karma is doomed








Susan breathed in and out but air wouldn't enter her lungs. Starved for air, her heart raced at tremendous speeds, and her lungs shallowly rose and fell in time, she stood there for what felt like an eternity but was actually only few seconds, Satisfaction of security was nothing but a distant memory , and an invisible force crushed her from every possible direction. Each second submerged in fear made a permanent mark on her heart, and a vivid imagination made her wander whether it was just her mind playing tricks or reality ..., she desperately tried to hide how fearful she was but it was useless since she couldn't silent her harsh breathe, A gaggle of goose pimples laminated her skin, Slow and deliberate the steps came closer and closer, then it stopped,the hairs on the nape of her neck bristled as her head bubble with conflicting thoughts, just then it occured to her the only logical thing to do is run away....

With that thought, she pull out the flash drive, pocket her phone and turn to walk away.., her heart froze when she heard something, something clanking on the ground, she didn't step on anything neither did she fall anything, it must be the other person in the house, regaining her breathe, she spun around one last time with hopes of catching glimpse of the other person, when she saw no one but a reflection of herself in the wall, she dashed out of the house in full force, , she ran, feet kissing the ground. Perhaps a little while ago she would have balked at the idea of finding out who the other person is, now she relish the prospect, she didn't find nurse Titi but she found something that could help her..

She bolted down the road to the gate, pushing the gate open in a hurry, outside, she look around with a clanging echo that matched her heart throbbing inside her chest, just then an idea crossed her mind, she looked at both corners of the fence, when she found an overgrown bush, she ran for it covering herself with it and letting the dim darkness do the rest....

She wheezes as her lungs gasp for air but she didn't care, she needed to see the person and a deep intincts tells her whoever the person is, he saw her and will be out to find her...

After some few minutes of crouching behind the leaves without seeing anyone come out from the house, Susan realise it was useless waiting, if whoever he is wanted to come out, he would be out by now, perhaps he was looking for something and still looking for it.., she grunt as ants began to flow around her foot, she furiously squashed some with her shoe before she came out from hiding, slowly with throbbing heart, she stepped out of the bush and make a few steps from the gate, then all of a sudden she turned back only to see someone in the thin darkness hurriedly running towards her..., her heart skipped from the shock, but she quickly snap from it and set herself to run but she was a split second too late...

A hand, rough and hard held hers but before he could get hold of her, a scream leap out from her mouth before she threw her other hand sloppily at his face hitting his eyes in the process, he let go for a while, she delve into the opportunity and once again took to her heels...

"Get back here.."His pursuers shouted...

Distance and safety was all that matters, Susan wasn't stopping for anything and she sure as hell not looking back to see if he's still chasing her.., even with her renting heart, She ran through a maze of buildings and winding side streets and in that moment all she could think of was Henry and Anita.., if she knew this was going to involve running for her life, she would have listen to Henry when he ask her not to go, she would have stayed back..

Her feet pounded the ground with all the grace of a sack of wet concrete, her rasping throat was as parched as a dead lizard, her head bobbed loosely from side to side with each footfall and her eyes felt heavy in their sockets...., when she saw a car approaching, it's yellow front light shoning bright into the road, she quickens her pace, if she could reach the car before her pursurer, she could escape, with the slightest of efforts, she ran faster..., then she stopped, realising the car was just a stone throw from her, she spun around but barely noticing anything, then she ran into the middle of the road and stretched out her hands to stop the car...

Her heart flew right out her chest as the car speedily stopped in front of her..., she close her eyes from shock and fear, she reopen them even with her breathe coming in short gasp, she went to the side of the car and knock on the screen, when the windscreen was rolled down, she opened her mouth to talk but what came out was engulfed in stutters...

"Help me.."She said, her words coming low than she anticipated...

"Please help me.."She said again, this time with a voice of a survivor..."Someone is after me, he wants to kill me.."

"Who's trying to kill you...?"The guy in the driver's seat ask..

Susan took a breather, then she moved her eyes around and quickly notice there were actually five guys seating in the car, one was sitting beside the driver while the other three were behind..,fear began to lick her from the bottom of her stomach, fear they may actually be bad people, she turn her gaze from them only to be welcome with the sight of her pursurer standing a few steps from the car, the front light of the car showing brightly in his face, he was short, a bit chubby with tattered hair and unshaved beards....

"It's him.."Susan shouted pointing at the man...., she watched the men in the car as they glance at each other like they were having a silent conversation, it quickly occur to her, her plea wasn't the right call.., these are bad men driving in the thief of the night, the opening of the car door pushed her a few steps from them.., then she watch in horror as the rest of the men alighted from the car.., her brain wants her to move, to run as far away as she can from these men but her legs were too weak to move an inch.., she stood paralysed to the spot as she's dragged into the menacing aura.., then all of a sudden she snap from it but she was a split second too late.., she was surrendered and if her intincts about the men is true, it means anywhere she turn to, she'll be caught....

Heart pounding, her eyes moved from the five men to her pursurer.., the fact that her pursurer wasn't moved by the sight of the five men made her more convinced she's been cornered..trapped...and only God can save her from the horror that's about to unfold..

"This is you right...?"

The deep voice snapped her from her thoughts and landed her roughly into reality., she revert her gaze from her pursurer only to be greeted by a photo of herself in one of the five men phones..., the shock dragged her backward..., her whole body shook like someone just deliver a fatal blow to her face.....

"You did well littlefinger...."One of the men said..

Heart renting, Susan manage to look at his pursurer face again as her brain desperately try to remenber where she have seen him..., when nothing came up, she look at the five men again and try to analyse the situation but was quickly snapped out of her thoughts by the buzzed of her loud ringtone, she quickly took the phone out and pounce the answer option when she knew its Henry calling...

"Henry help me, help me.."She shouted but was quickly short-speeched when the phone was taken from her by one of the five men....

"Who the hell are you talking to.."The man said, his voice sending cold chills down Susan's spines...

The man ended the call, drop the phone on the ground and smashed it with his shoe, the phone screen cascaded into broken fragments.....

Susan shiver as she thought through every holes and corners she can escape through, when she found none, she lower her gaze in search of anything, anything she could defend herself with..., no matter the plans they have for her, she isn't giving up without a fight.....










*****************
Samuel quickly turn off the car light upon reaching the bridge, he took a deep breathe and glance Festus way...
"Are you ready...?"He ask

Festus nod his heart, even with the fear lingering in his heart, he knew he needed to be strong..

"Let's do this.."Samuel said and with that, they both open the car doors and trot towards the car truck.., they glance at each other before Samuel open the car door, they took away their faces as the stench of the dead bodies find way to their nose.., Samuel spat before he helped Festus in carrying sergeant Owen dead body from the car truck..

Breathing heavily, both boys carried the dead body to the edge of the bridge.., they glance at each before they lifted the body and threw it inside the water..

Festus shiver as the body land with a thud in the water..

"Let's get the other bodies.."Samuel said..

Festus grudgingly followed him and together they carried the gateman body and the girl Sergeant Owen had killed and dump them in the water...

Satisfy, they didn't bother wasting anymore time before they ran into the car and in a slight minute, Samuel started the car and they drove off....

"This is the worst thing I've ever done.."Festus said as Samuel drive speedily on the express road...

Samuel's lips curl as he remenber Susan's words...."The worst is yet to come.."










*****************
Fear tortures Susan's guts, churning her stomach in tense cramps, it knocks every other thoughts aside as it overwhelms her body, making it drastically exhausted..., she hold the little stick her eyes could see firmly, she's standing firm and she aren't giving up without a fight.....

One of the men look at the other men.., as if been planned, they rumbled into laughter...

"What are you going to do with that stick...?"One of the men ask

"Touch me and you'll find out.."Susan replied immediately, she knew the stick was useless, six men against her and her only weapon against them was a stick that could break into pieces at the slightest touch, the stick is useless but it's the only weapon her eyes could see.....

"What do you want from me..?"She ask, her eyes carrying a level of fear she knew she shouldn't have..., whatever facade and powerful energy she was putting on, she know very well it's useless against six men...., what really are her chances.., she's trapped between life and death snd she fear death may be the end result....

When one of the men move towards her, she thrust the stick forward.., she watch, every part of her burning with anger as they rumbled into another round of laughter.....

"What do you want from me..?"Susan yelled..."Who sent you..., how did you know I'll be here.."

"I've been following you, you moròn..."Littlefinger chimes in..

Susan's brain quickly ran up to speed.., she quickly brood over about earlier at nurse Titi's house.., she had seen someone...it was him.., all this time she's been followed and she had no idea....., she glance up at them again but she was a little too late, one of the men rushed at her.., the sudden attack shook the living daylight from her, she lost her balance and she fell...

Just then they pounce on her, they rained blows onto Susan as if they meant to smash her into the very earth.. they didn't want her dead, they wanted her smashed, obliterated, nothing left to bury...

But Susan fought back, She pulled out hair in handfuls, scratched, bit, kicked and head-butted...., but quickly jotted out from the struggle when a fatal blow came for her stomach, then the attack on her became firece, efficient and deadly.., they left her bleeding on all sides.., then they torn off the clothes from her body baring every part of her naķed...., what followed were powerful kicks to her body and heavy boots landing fiercely on her legs....

A harsh gush of pain jolted throughout Susan’s body, her stomach ached, her arms lost tension and her legs began to weaken..., then they left her after a thorough beating...., Susan gasp for air as pain jolted through every part of her....

"Let's go lets go.."One of the men shouted when he saw a car front light coming from afar..

One of the men took out his phone and took multiple photos of Susan's nude body, then they ran into the car.., the one on the driver's seat started the car and drove the car forward, the tyres rode on Susan's legs, a rage full scream leap out from Susan's mouth as the car tyres came in contact with her legs, but the driver didn't stop, he ignore her screams and drove off, the tyres rolled over her legs breaking her leg bone and smashing the flash drive to pieces.....

Susan scream at the top of her voice with blood gushing out from her legs and mouth...., in a pool of her own blood, she began to creep on her stomach out of the road..., she creep into a mud.., the pains dragging every part of her, just then hot tears tinted with her blood rolled off her eyes.., she couldn't take the pain, her body was too weak..little by little, her sight began to fade until the pain sweep her into a terrific oblivion of unconsciousness










**************
As the car tyres swing into his house street, Samuel reach out to his phone to see the messages that has been beeping no stop..., he stopped the car as he look the pictures that were sent to his phone...

"Oh God she did it.."Festus said collecting the phone from Samuel...., he zoom the picture taking a closer look at her naķedness......"Do you think she's dead...?"

Samuel look his way, then he turn his gaze away and restart the car...."I hope she's dead..."

Festus exhale and took another look at Susan's battered and naķed body pictures....."What about Anita.., what did Dr Charana say..?"

"She's exactly where I want her.."Samuel said with a feeling of hatred that could make the world scarlet...."Mad..."

"Do you believe in karma..?"Festus ask...

Samuel glance his way..."I believe this world sits on two side of a coin..., you kill or be killed, betray or be betrayed, you ruin or be ruined and if Karma really exists....., then I'll be waiting for it...."

Festus suck his teeth and look at Susan's naķed pictures again...."What if Karma is a she....a mad she....?"

Samuel glance his way, just then evil thoughts began to cross his minds, every move, every attack was well laid out in his head, anger surged through him before he open his mouth to reply......"Then karma is doomed.."
