Tomi * Continues* Dedicated to dominique, midastouche01, Doctorflash, " Who did you call?" i asked Vicky as she hung up the call. " I called a family friend. He should be here soon" she replied nervously. " This, this friend, will you be safe with him?" Victoria sighed loudly. " Tomi i will be fine.Thank you so much, you are a wonderful person'' Few minutes later.... A car honked at the gate and we both went outside. The guy parked his car and got out. He was a tall, handsome guy with packs. He certainly looked Like a knight to the rescue. " Is he the one?" i asked. " Yes." He walked over to where we stood and we exchanged pleasantries. " Tomi meet Tosin, he's a family friend" she said, gesturing." Tosin, Tomi" His hand captured mine in a firm handshake. " Hope you didn't tell Kelvin i called you" Vicky asked him. " I don't want anyone to know where i am" " No i didn't." he said. " I will follow behind you in my car." She said. " thank you". " You are welcome". he called, walking towards his car. *********************************** With Victoria gone, my apartment felt so lonely without her. I stood against my door, looking out into the night. A big fat lonely tear dropped down my cheek and i wiped it off with the back of my palm. Life is so lonely when you are a lazy girl, you don't have friends because you are either too lazy to make one or keep the ones you have. Once guys percieve that you are lazy they make it an excuse to give you the dump and most people are under the misconception that a lazy person is a stinky person so they do their best to avoid you. Even My co_workers shy away from me because to them i am ' unfit'. Lord knows i try my best these days to fit in but it is not easy. I heard a car pull up again, the screeching sound of the tires pierced the serene atmosphere and i braced myself. i was so sure it was Linda, but the person who walked through the gate was Richmond. I hate to admit it, but i missed him. The guy deserves some credit for putting up with my shiit for six good months. " Hey" he leaned closer and pecked my cheek softly. " Hi" i whispered back, burying my nose into his shirt. He smelled of soap, sweat and something dark and masculine.My heart fluttered. " Can we go inside?" He asked. I know what he meant. My feelings was still tangled and i don't know how to untangle the sticky hot mess that was my life. Once a cheat, always a cheat right? " No, no, Rich what are you doing here?" " Tomi.......i thought we have settled this." He said. We heard another car pull up and the gate was thrown open with force.Two ladies marched into the compound, in our direction and i cringed inside. This doesn't look good. There was something familiar about the fairer lady and i searched my head until it hit me. Oyinyechi Okafor. She stole my scholarship in high school. " Victoria! I know you are here!" Linda screamed, she spared a glance towards Rich and blanched. Rich looked like he wanted to be anywhere but here and the albino girl was starring daggers at me. " Rich? What are you doing here? and you! Why are you keeping our sister here against her will?" Oyinye asked. " What do you want here? you slut! have you taken to stalking me now?" Rich said, roughly grabbing Linda' s arm. " Richmond please stop it! She is my boss" He tensed up, shock written all over his face before letting go of her. Oyinye' s glaring gaze was fixed on my face." Don't i know you from somewhere?" She asked. " Miss Linda, I am sorry but your sister is not here and i also apologize on behalf of my friend here" " Yes! I remember you now! You are that dirty girl from high school" She shouted like she was announcing an important discovery. " You lost a scholarship due to your dirty nature!" '' Shut the hell up!" Richmond turned his wrath on her. " Oyinye let's go" Boss lady said. " But Linda..." " Let's go!" Linda screamed, already going towards the gate and her puppy hurried after her. I let out a pent up sigh. " Why couldn't you just keep your mouth shut?" I snapped at him angrily. " why didn't you tell me?" he said. " Tell you what?!" " You could have told me that she was your boss" I walked into the house and locked my door. He was the cause of the problem now i have to fix it somehow. I know Linda wasn't pleased to find out that her mousy assistant also had a taste of something she had eaten. ***************************** I woke up earlier than usual, i wore a light make up and ironed my best trouser suit. I needed to look good for the confrontation with Linda at the office. I knew it was inevitable, so i had to prepare myself for it. If i looked good, i would surely feel good i told myself. The receptionist wasn't on seat when i entered the building, it was a good sign. I won't have to endure her false cheerfulness. I saw a large carton box sitting on my desk, a quick glance told me someone had taken the liberty to tidy up my office. I could see my make up brush which had rolled under my desk months ago in it, my tea mug which was carefully hidden under my bottom drawer because of the green mucky stuffs growing in it was also in the box along with some of my books and other junks which i had failed to dispose. I wondered who the kind soul was. I always told myself that i would get around to tidying things up but it always skips my mind. I was so happy to find my things neatly placed in the box that i didn't hear my office door open. I smelled her presence before i turned around to see her. She pulled one of the office chair and sat down, she motioned for me to do same and i fixed my butt on the second chair. " Good morning Miss Linda" i said, rubbing my sweaty palm on my trouser. " Save it. You can see i took the liberty to help you tidy up your office." she said. " I was going to.......... " '' Don't bother. " She handed me an envelope." Sadly, your employment with us has been terminated". " Why? I have done nothing wrong!" I cried out. " You think so?" She smirked." If you want me to give you a reason for firing you, then i will give you one.",She said in a low menacing tone. " Is it because of Rich?" i asked foolishly. " " I don't have time to trade words Tomi. I have a company to run " She stood up regally and cat walked out of the office. She stuck her head in again, " Of course you will be handsomely paid for this month and next month". I picked up the box containing my belongings,I should have expected this from that wicked lady! I wondered if i should get Miss Maggie involved but pride took the better of me and i walked out with my box. TBC 12 Likes 6 Shares |

Chapter Seven Tomi Since i was thrown back into the system of unemployment, i found myself getting lazier by the day. All i do is cook, eat, crawl under my duvet and sleep off. Sleeping soothed me, it made me feel a whole lot better. I ignored the foul smell from the days old unwashed plates and pots in the kitchen. Richmond called me several times but i ignored his calls. I missed calls from Victoria and my parents too. Even Dantata had called once or twice i am not sure but i just wanted to stay in my own world forever. I heard someone pounding on my door aggressively, i thought whoever it was would go away but the pounding persisted and i found myself dragging my feet to answer the door. Two men with bushy beards and bloodshot eyes were the cause of the pounding. " Good morning. How may i help you?" " Are you Tomi Adebola?" One of them asked, revealing a set of irritating yellowish brown teeth. " Yes. What do you want?" " We are from Area F police station and we have a warrant to search your house" Brown teeth said, flashing me an Id card. " Why do you want search my house and who sent you?" " We advise that you keep your mouth shut because whatever you say here will be used against you in the court of law". the other one declared. They forced their way into my living room. One of them tripped on my heels which was on the floor and he almost kissed the ground if not for the timely intervention of his partner. They both gave me a look which spoke volumes and started searching the place. " Who sent you? " i asked, following them. My mind was reeling with questions. I had no beef with anyone and i wasn't involved in any iillegal thing so i don't know why they will have a warrant to search my place. One of them carried the box which i had brought home with me into the living room. I was going to sort out the items in it but i forgot to do so. " There's nothing in there! Just junks!" I informed them. They brought out the mug, some devotionals, three dusty novels, broken pencils and a pen. A big spider crawled out of the box and landed on the hand of the police man. It was so hilarious watching him jump up, trying to whisk off the offending thing crawling on his hand. He managed to brush it off and squashed it under his over worn shoes. He continued searching through the box and i suddenly felt fear prick at my heart. Why didn't i sort out this box days ago? A big emerald stone was at the bottom of the box.He held up the emerald ring in his hand, a triumphant smile on his scarred face. Someone had planted a pearl stone in my box. " That is not mine" i shouted. " Of course we know it is not yours!" he scoff. He brought out a sleek shiny handcuffs, he curved my hands behind my back, twisting it very hard. " I don't know who plant it there!" They read me my rights and one of them carried the box in the crook of his arm. " Please i need to take my phone" . " You will use the one at the station. " They pushed me out of the living room. The cold cuffs bit into my flesh, i felt tears sting my eyes. I knew who was behind this set up. Only one name comes to mind. TBC 10 Likes 5 Shares |

Dedicated to Jagugu88li, Veekid, Eniqurl Continues Tomi I was locked in a dingy little cell with no air. The only food they pushed under the cell iron gate was a plate of watery beans with a big tse tse fly in the middle of it. They refused to let me call my family. The cell reeked of urine and stale sweat of thousands of people who had been in it before me, i sat in a corner of the tiny cell with no water in my system for almost 48 hours. I wondered if anyone will miss me, will Vicky check up on me if she didn't hear from me? Or Rich? Or Dantata? Several hours later, the cell was opened by a female police, she beckoned me to come out. My legs were wobbly and i smelled like a day old poo. I followed her out on shaky legs, maybe Linda had decided to pardon me or perharps my parents had been notified. Standing across the counter was Linda, Oyinye and a guy. Our gaze met and locked but his face betrayed nothing. " See her! this girl is a crazy girl!" Oyinye screamed. " Officer has she confessed? " " What i can't seem to understand is why you will stoop so low" Linda said. " Haven't i been fair enough to you? " " Ladies we are here to see the DPO. " Kelvin said, his eyes searching my face. " Please take her back to the cell officer " " Thief! after all your boss has done for you! " I saw the guy give Oyinye a look which shut her up immediately. He propelled both ladies towards the DPO' s office and i was led back to my cell. ******************************** That evening i was set free on bail. I don't know who was kind enough to bail me but i was glad to be out of that hell hole. The cool evening breeze raised up my hair, it caressed my face Lightly and i inhaled the sweet air through my nostril trying to clear out the bad one i had inhaled in the cell. I saw him walking towards me and i tensed up. What was he doing here? " I will take you home" he said. " Come with me" I followed him in silence. we got into his car and he drove me home. My door was still ajar, i was ashamed to take him into my apartment knowing how foul smelling it must be by now but i couldn't turn him away. We entered the stinky living room, i was heading towards the kitchen but he asked me to go take my bath instead. By the time i finally shook off shame after having my bath, i Walked into my living room and stopped in shock. The room was smelling so nice and it was neat. He sat down on one of the sofa, his long legs stretched out in front of him. " Tomi are you ready to eat?" He asked. " Eat? where did the food come from?" " I thought you would never come out of the bathroom so i took the liberty of putting this place together and i also drove down the street to get you some bites" " Thank you........" I trailed off, realizing that i didn't even know his name and he had rescued me on several occasions. I wonder what connection he had with Linda and why he had bailed me. " Kelvin'' he drawled out. Kelvin. The name suited him." Thank you" I went into the kitchen and stooped short. The stack of dirty plates and pots in the sink was gone, i couldn't find it anywhere in the kitchen. " Where are my plates and pots!?" " I threw them out." He shouted. I groaned and bit my lips so i won't tell him something i might end up regretting. The food was in a fancy carrier bag on the kitchen counter. I carried it back to the living room, upon inspection i found a plastic spoon in it, i started eating the fried rice, chewing it slowly. I knew he was staring at me, i could feel the hotness spread through me. " Kelvin, i didn't steal that ring....." " I know." He said. I looked at him in surprise. " How do you know that?" " I know what Linda is capable of" I nodded my head. " Are you related to her?" He let out a sigh." She's a family friend. I was at their place when the DPO called her that they had picked up the......the ....." He looked uncomfortable. " The thief? " I guessed. " Errm no. The criminal...... her father insisted that i follow her and i am glad now that i did. " " Did she know you bailed me?" " No but there's nothing she can do about it." " Kelvin...... thank you" " You are welcome." He stood up." Will you be alright? " he asked. " Yes." " Good. See you tomorrow ". He said. " Good night ". " Lock the door and tuck yourself into bed on time " he said, giving me a warm smile. TBC Like share, comment. 15 Likes 8 Shares |
