Chapter 20
The Next Day

Shira stared at the car that just dropped her off driving away. She then stared at the gate in front of her. Was she ready for this? She asked herself again for the umpteenth time that morning. Was she really prepared? This was her first real assignment and would she now fail it? Shrugging her shoulders, she heaved a sigh and dug into the polythene bag in her left hand. She brought out a mobile phone and dialled Mrs Jude's public number and watched the phone as it rang for a few minutes. The Minister of Finance's wife's croaky, irritating and nerve-wracking voice filled the phone.

'Who the hell is on the line?' came the irritating voice of the woman.

'Good morning ma, it's me …….'

'Nothing is actually good about the morning. Can you just go straight to the point. And if you think I am ready to give you money, if you want to ask for some, then you are on a fool's illusion,' she barked over the phone.

Shira wondered why the woman was so saucy. She could not wait to snap the woman's neck and if possible, fry it to dryness and then give the head to the poor. 'It's Kate ma,' she said.

'I don't know any Kate. That's how you people will be mentioning stupid names whenever you want to ask for money. Is it my fault that my husband is the minister of Finance?'

Shira was very angry she could have screamed at the woman. 'Kate ma'am, the maid,' she said.

'Oh, so you were the one talking as if you are being f**cked?'

This woman get mind, she thought. Shira couldn't wait for the day she would snuff life out of this nasty lady.

'No ma. I'm right in front of your gate right now,' she said.

'Errmm,' she heard her Said. 'Please you will have to go and wait somewhere. I want to think about it'.

'Alright ma'am,' Shira said and hung the call. The woman sounded really suspicious. Think about what?

She just hoped the croaky woman had nothing hidden under her sleeves.

………….

Cross-legged, and with a huge frown on her face, Miri gazed at the silly animated movie showing on the TV. Every now and then, she checked her wristwatch and sip the wine inside a glass cup in her hand. She looked angry. The stupid cartoon showing on the TV did not help matters. Finally exasperated, she reached for the remote control on the sofa near her to change the movie station. Suddenly, her phone started vibrating with startling muted sounds. She checked the caller. Speaking of the devil, it was the stupid woman. She dropped the glass of wine on the table in front of her and picked the call.

'Why did it took you long to call? You silly woman!'

'See let me make this clear to you,' the woman said. 'The fact that you are trying to save us from an 'unknown' trouble does not mean you can talk to me anyhow. I'm way more older than you are!'

Miri laughed hysterically. She laughed until her sides protested. When she had stopped laughing, she took on a mean voice and bellowed at the phone, 'Woman, do you know whom you are talking to? Be careful of trash you will say to me. If only you are ready to go to your early grave. Oh maybe you feel that your silly guards can protect you? I laugh at you in Spanish. I will only send your lives to Hades in a nutshell. Just try me'.

Silence overcame the phone. 'If you get me, may I know why you are calling?' she questioned.

With a slight tremor in her voice, Miri heard her say the maid was around but not yet inside.

'I'm on my way,' Miri said casually and hung the call. She then stood up, picked up her car keys and left the house.

…………

'Yes boss,' Shira said to her phone as she stood under a huge baobab tree near the building, awaiting the results of whatever stupid thinking the woman was making.

'She said she wanted to think about it,' she said to the phone. 'Yes, I hid the poison in my brassiere……. Yes boss…. Okay… alright,' she hung the call only to look up and behold a car driving towards the gate of the house. A lady was the driver. She watched as she honked at the gate. The gate was opened for her and she drove in. Shira was suspicious of the car and its occupant. She hoped this won't be more harder than she thought.

About five minutes later, her phone rang and she picked the call, it was the Minister of Finance's wife, Mrs Jude. 'Hello ma,' she said courteously.

'You can come in now. I've told the guards to open the gate for you.'

'Okay ma,' she said to the already hung line.

……...

Miri watched the lady as she walked sluggishly into the living room, dirty and clutching a little polythene bag. She watched her as she looked at the house, obviously admiring the house. She looked like those poor people who feels happy at the prospect of working in a huge house where they could steal things for their wretched families. But, she knew better than to dwell on appearance. Appearance could decieve. And this kneeling, local looking girl might as well be a devil.

Miri surveyed her body with her eyes. She then turned to Mrs Jude, 'You might as well excuse us now. I will take over from here'.

Mrs Jude started to protest but Miri's severe stare at her shut her up. And she stood up, frowning to the bones and waddled out of the living room. Miri turned to the lady and cleared her throat, 'Erm….young lady, if you don't mind, I will like to search your body'.

She watched as her a flash of alarm and panic swam across the lady's eyes. Miri became suspicious of her.

………
A loud bang erupted in Shira's head as she heard her say she wanted to search her. 'But why? Why? Why? I have nothing on me,' she cried, trying to sound naive.

'Well, we need to confirm,' she hear her said and then she watched the lady stand up and started walking towards her.

'Boss… boss… I failed you,' Shira wept under her breath.
