Must Read: Blood for Blood - Season 1 - Episode 54

As I darted out of the compound with full speed towards the power bike parked outside,the only thing that kept ringing in my mind was Alice’s safety but in the background,i could hear sophia’s delicate voice calling out to me.”honey what’s wrong???,where are you going???”,she kept on shouting but I wasn’t concentrated on that,the only thing on my mind now was alice’s safety,if anything happened to that innocent girl,i would live the rest of my life in severe guilt and self-hate……the only thing that would be able to calm me down now would be to see alice’s beautiful face smiling back at me and knowing that all was ok with her…….red hot tears of anger stung my eyes……

As I made to mount the power bike,i suddenly realised something,i would have to take the same route to get back to alice’s house,the same rout from which I had stolen a power bike,this wasn’t going to be easy at all……..I picked up my phone and called alice’s line and waited for a response,it wasn’t going through!!!!,that was it!!! I was going there no matter what……I kickstarted the bike and zoomed off along the open road not slowing down for anything…..It took only a matter of minutes before I got to the spot where a group of sympathisers were gathered around the confused young man,he looked hopeless……..I drove the powerbike towards the crowd and immediately shouts of “see am,see the thief” rent the air…….As they approached,i pulled my glock pistol and pointed at the angry mob,”dont you f-----g move,if I was a thief,do you think you’d see me again???”,the noised died down as theey retreated …….I got off the bike,beckoned on the boy and pressed the sum of eight thousand naira into his palm…..”This is for your gas”,I said politely as I got into my parked vehicle and swerved off amidst protest from the mob…..I navigated to a clear road and stepped on the accelerator causing the car to jerk forward as it picked up speed…..I took me not longer than ten minutes to get to alice’s house cos I was speeding like a mad man…….Getting there,i pulled my pistol,slammed the car door and ran towards her door,picked up my phone and called her once more……This time the call went through!!!! By now I could hear the phone ringing inside,she was still in the house or was she????……I didn’t wait for her to pick as I hurled myself at her door which gave way under my muscular frame……I trudged on into the house,my upper arm now bleeding….I saw her seating in the dining looking scared…..obviously something was wrong with her but I didn’t know what it was yet!!!!!….”baby what’s wrong???”,i asked her……….she was now shedding tears…..”greg I love you” she muttered,why was she crying I wondered as I heard footsteps behind me……”baby look out”,she yelled as I felt a heavy blow land on the back of my head……In my anger,i had forgotten to scan the house thoroughly for people and apparently there was someone else in the house…….Everything grew dark as I crashed to the ground…….
