Episode 1 CONTD
He was woken up by a soft tap on the door. He grunted in anger and glanced at his alarm clock. A minute past Eight O Clock.

"Christ" he muttered. He didn't realize that he had slept that long. He couldn't blame himself,the flight was exhausting. But why would anyone wake him up buy this time anyways? He cursed under his breath as he heard the knock again and made to open the door. He saw a one of the maids standing with a huge box in her hand.

"Good Evening Sir Daniel, your mother requests for your presence downstairs" she greeted like someone who had rehearsed the greeting.

"But why? Tell her that I'm resting please, I can have dinner later"

"She says it's really important"

He sighed and glanced at the box, "And what's that?"

The maid just handed him the box in response and he took it. He placed the box on the bed and opened it.



"A suit? But what do I need a suit f....."

He turned to ask the maid but she was already gone. He sighed again and shook his head. His mother was such a pest,he thought. What else did he need a suit for when he was just having dinner? He decided to drop it aside and go downstairs like that,but thought against it again when he remembered how furious his mother would be. So he wore it anyways. And when he did,he couldn't help but admire himself at the mirror. The design was out of the ordinary he thought,just the way he liked all his designs to be. It was a light red colour, with yellow highlights like flames drawn on it. It was also a bit tight fitting,and it didn't fail to bring out his ripped muscles well. He wondered how the designer guessed the exact type of thing he liked. He couldn't help but remove the suit again and decided to search for the label. A huge C was boldly inscribed on the small paper.

Candice,of course. Who else could get it so right?


He wore the suit again,combed his hair and wore a pair of black shoes. Not too long after he did that,a knock came on his door again.

"Are you done there bro?" Went the voice and he quickly recognized that it was Nina's.

"Sure sis,but what's the big occasion?"

"Just hurry up and stop asking questions, everyone is waiting for you downstairs!"

Everyone? Why was he starting to smell something fishy. He quickly finished dressing up and went outside. He saw Nina waiting for him, dressed beautifully in a knee length gown coloured pink,with her hair tied in a neat bun.

"Whoa Nina, look at you" he admired while shutting his door.

"Thanks bro, you don't look too bad yourself. Candice really did a great job on this suit" she said while straighting out the collars.

He gave a small smile"I guess so. But seriously N, what's the big occasion? I mean,we're just having dinner right? Is there really any need for all this flashiness?"

"Well,there's only one way to find out" she responded, bringing out a small piece of black cloth.

"What's that for?" He asked, confusedly.

"It's for your eyes duh"

"But what do I need an eye gag for?"

"You won't know until you wear it, right?" Nina asked with a convincing smirk. David rolled his eyes in defeat and turned back. She wore it on for him.

"God you've gotten taller" she said trying to catch her breath after the strenuous exercise of trying to match David's height. He just laughed in response.



"Now,lets go meet the others..."

Episode 1 CONTD
Candice, one of the major reasons why he ever returned to Nigeria in the first place. He wasn't planning to stay for long though. He would leave immediately once he achieved his mission.

He sighed as he dropped his bag on the bed,and started to unpack. He began to remember everything that led him to this point. He remembered how his brother betrayed him when he stole his woman away from him, while he was away studying. As he continued to unpack,he stumbled across an old picture he took with his brother when they were still kids. He raised the picture up and cleaned it a little. He sighed again.

"What really happened to us Daniel, what went wrong?" He asked. He remembered when they were still kids. They used to be inseparable back then. People even referred to them as 'The Wonder Things'. They used to be powerful friends, until a woman came between them.

A woman who was rightfully his....


He finished unpacking and was soon under the shower, receiving the comfort of a cool bath. He remembered everything that he had planned with Candice when he was still abroad. They would elope together to the states, get married there and get an American Citizen ship there. When they were done securing that, they would decide whether to come back to home to Nigeria or not. He smiled as he imagined the look on his brother's face once he realized that his so called love of his life was gone. He fell down on the bed when he was done, went through the plan again, and drifted off in a peaceful sleep, with hope of sweet dreams......

Episode 1
The car purred to a halt as they parked in front of the mighty building before them.

"Oga, were here ooooo" said the driver looking at him from the top mirror. David slowly raised his head up from the phone he was holding and heaved a gentle sigh.

"Finally..." He muttered.

He dropped excitedly from the car, while Ahmad,his driver began unpacking the boot. Soon, the front door of the mansion flung open,and he saw his baby sister Nina running towards him with open arms.

"Bro Daaaavvviiid!!!!! I missed you so much" she said as they interlocked themselves in a tight fitting hug. "I thought dad was just joking when he said you'd be arriving today"

"I missed you too,Nina" he simply responded with a smile

"Why am I missing out on the hugs too?" They heard their mothers voice and turned to see her coming with Johnson their dad, grinning from ear to ear.

"Mom" David responded and threw his arms around his mother, hugging her tightly. "Welcome home son"

"Thanks Mom. Dad?" He turned to his father who nodded and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulder

"Good to have you back David"

"It feels good to be back! Seven long years..." he said as he breathed in the fresh air of him. "I can't believe I'm finally home for good"

"Yes son, I'm happy you're back. It seems that wretched country didn't treat you well. I mean,look at you, you're so thin"

David simply rolled his eyes over his mother's observation and turned to his dad,who was just shaking his head.

"Come on in, I've prepared a feast specially for you" Patricia announced as she trudged her son forward.

"Was that really necessary mom?" David asked "you didn't have to go through all those stress"

"Oh please. You've been away from home for soooo long,it's only right that you would be treated like a king as such. So,go and freshen up a little while I set up the table, and hurry please..." Patricia declared and hurried along to set the dinner table.

"Don't mind your mother David. You know how much she's been dying too see you. Hurry along and freshen up" Johnson said holding hid sons shoulder. David smiled at him and looked around the room. So much change since he last came here, which was about to years ago. There were more portraits and decorations which he couldn't help but admire. Soon, his eyes landed on a peculiar picture.

"What about Daniel,is he....?"

"Should be here in a few minutes. He promised he would arrive with Candice before you settled down"

"Oh.. okay. I guess I should go get ready then"

"Yes, you should" Johnson seconded and David headed for the stairs. As he could,he couldn't help but shudder at the minds mention of that name...
