The sound of the motorcycle came loud and clear
into Daria's ears thereby stimulating her
sympathetic nervous system: increase of
heartbeat and fear. So she laid flat on the bed
and covered herself with a blanket but that didn't
prevent her from hearing the sound of the
motorcycle.

Still at that late hour of the night, king Lucas
couldn't sleep. He walked around his room with
his hands behind him. He wore a long pyjamas
which made his big stomach obvious. Just then,
his wife, the qween woke up to see him in such
mood.
"My king" she began. "What's troubling you? Is it
still about Red's request?"
"Yes" the king replied gazing at the ceiling. "I
have decided to give him the storey building built
by our son who is in abroad" he added.
"You don't mean it?!" the wife exclaimed in anger.
"Our son just completed the building for a hope of
coming back to Nigeria and you want to give it
to.. to.. Red or whatever he called himself"
"It seems like you don't know what this man is
capable of doing!" the husband barked angrily
looking at his wife.
"Then what will you tell our son if he comes back
to live in his house?" the wife asked.
King Lucas didn't reply immediately. He averted
his eyes back to the ceiling and groaned bitter
after which he exhaled heavily. "Time shall tell
what will happen or what i will tell my son. But i
know one thing; Red must be arrested, killed or
driven out from this land. I will make sure of that" long tight prom dresses
he concluded and went back to bed.

THE NEXT DAY
The first visitor king Lucas had was Red who
stopped in front of his gate. He didn't need to
activate the horn of his motorcycle before the
gateman opened the gate for him because the
sound of the motorcycle substituted the horn. He
drove in.
Meanwhile, the king, his wife, elder Thomas and
Ben were already standing in front of the house
waiting for him when they heard his motorcycle.
When Ebube jumped down from the motorcycle,
elder Thomas adjusted backward.
"I hope my message was delivered" Ebube spoke
out. They didn't see his mouth but they heard
him.
"Yes, it was" the king replied.
"Then where is the house?"
"Elder Thomas and Ben will take you there"
"No, you take me there" Ebube insisted.
"Okay, let me use my car" the king walked
towards one of his cars.
"No, you ride with me on my baby" Ebube referred
to his motorcycle.
"Abomination!" the queen exclaimed. "My husband
won't ride on that motorcycle" she added.
Without waiting time, Ebube brought out his
sword moving briskly towards them.
"Heeey! Red has come again oh" elder Thomas
shouted as he ran inside the house with elder
Ben.
Ebube dragged the king on his ear and looked at
the queen who was shivering in fear. "I'll forgive
you because you probably do not know who Red
is. But go on your knees" he told the queen who
did as he said immediately. Then Ebube dragged
the king to his motorcycle. "Croom croom" he
sped off with him.
After that, the two elders came out and saw the
queen on her knees.
"Aru!" elder Ben shouted.
"Abomination!" elder Thomas added.
**
With a high speed, Ebube passed Odem on the
road for the second time. He didn't fall but
staggered by the nearest bush. "Gods of palm
wine!" he shouted. "Is that not our king on Red's
motorcycle?" he asked.
"That's what I'm seeing!" a young youth
approached closer with his hands on his head
surprisingly.
"Abomination!" Odem exclaimed.
"Is like our King has been kidnapped by Red"
"Kidnapping is under statement. Our king has
been killed already by Red!"
"The Wine, let's go and save him" the youth
suggested then Odem disdained him.
"Alright, go, I'm behind you. Let me get my
weapon from Mama wine. Idiot!" he staggered
out.

One could see Austine dressing his resident when
Prisca arrived. She wore black leggings trouser
and a white top. Her black beauty glows like
diamond in the sky.
"Hey, Prisca" Austine smiled.
"Good day, Austine" Prisca sat down. "You called
me"
"Yes, what can i offer you?"
"Anything"
Austine offered Prisca a drink which he also
partook on it. After they had drank and chatted,
he looked straight into her eyes and said, "I love
you" Without Prisca saying anything, he brought
his head closer to kiss her but Prisca stood up
instantly.
"What's it?" Austine stood up too.
"What about Daria?" Prisca asked.
"I never loved her" Austine replied.
Just then, Daria came unnoticed. She stood at
the door which was only covered with a cotton
watching and listening to them.
"You are lying to me" Prisca objected.
"No, I'm telling you the truth" Austine held her
round the waist. "Please, accept to be my
girlfriend and forget about Daria. I love you" he
brought his head closer again to kiss her. Prisca
reciprocated but they were distracted by Daria's
sniffing voice and running footsteps.
"Who was that?" Prisca asked.
"Nobody" Austine replied.
"But you heard the footsteps"
"Maybe it was one of these children" Austine went
back to kiss her...
