Oscar: I love kemi though, I will marry her after all this, and I will take charge of her Father’s money, he said to Tiger who nodded his head like a lizard.
Tiger: you are the master planner Boss man tiger hailed and they head out after the secret meeting,
He made the other boys assemble, while they sang all old confra songs both in mourning of their dead brother, and that of victory at hand, Oscar briefed them a little on the next step to take, which was accepted by all the boys. And they continued in their sorority songs.
Day after day, kemi mourned the death of his father, he had called Joshua and told him of her loss, he commiserated with her, Joshua had a way with words, he made her stopped crying and mourning, every night and day, he always called her to give her soothing words, at some point he had even planned to visit her, at the expense of Hus safety, but she was against it, she made him see reasons why he shouldn’t come because of the confra clash, as a number 3 man, His life was at stake, any careless move from him would result to his death, Joshua saw some sense in what kemi to him so he heeded, Kemi had told him, she was just fine with his calls and affectionate gestures and soothing words Just to keep him safe, because she didn’t want to take chances, Oscar was around, Joshua might Just come to visit her in her house and boom, Oscar walks in she knew for sure Josh would be a dead man, Truth be told She was loving Joshua more than she did Oscar, but she couldn’t just detached herself from the death king, not like Joshua
was even a saint, at some point she had even asked herself, ‘‘was my life destined.to always be in love with confra men?’’. But there was no one to answer for her, Oscar do come around sometimes, but her love affair with Josh online skyrocketed she loved him just the way he does her. For a week, Oscar made her believed he was working on the death case, and was soon close to getting the culprits.
Weekend saw Oscar telling her how the creeds had done the hit on her father, he also showed her footage from the surveillance camera in her Father’s house, of people that performed the hit, a well doctored photo that displayed Josh face while pulling the trigger had made her crash to the floor, she cried he eyes out, the only one thing was playing on her head, at that time was that she was busy loving the devil that killed her father, she didn’t express that at Oscar’s presence, she only laid curse on the creeds and on Joshua, Oscar smiled inwardly at the effect of his wit on her, he has confused her and to even confused her the more, he went further to explain how the creeds were working for one Mr Ajayi, who was the Late Ex Senator’s Political Opponent, Kemi could Still remember the man, he was actually the one that caused her mothers death, he had sent thugs to kill Her father then when he was still campaigning for the senatorial position, that evening the goons had burst into her house, then she was still an O’Level student, she sat at the living room watching opera, when they came in, her dad was out of town, her mum had come down to join her when she met her daughter lying flat on the floor at gun point, the gunmen asked the woman to join her daughter which she complied to without any resilience, the sight of gun frightened her, Where is your husband? One of the guys yelled, and she told them he was out of the state, the searched the whole house buts did not find him, so they had to drop a message for the lucky man, and the message was to kill his wife. She died at the hands of the gunmen. That had left Kemi an orphan with just a paternal parent, to look after her, and now he was gun, the same Mr Ajayi that took his mother from her has also sent the Creeds to take her father, so Oscar made her believed. What the hell did my father do to this man she cried.
Oscar: It’s Okay my love, we will take care of him, if you want it done, I will send Tiger to take care of him right away, He said soothingly.
And the hopeless Girl concurred to His suggestions.
Oscar: Now for the creeds who were the instrument used to perpetrate this evil act, it’s time to get back to them, Kemi with the hate in your heart, I want to to milk your lover boy from the creed, of every plans and strategies they were making towards taking us down!
Kemi: Babe, are you in any way using me?
Oscar: No dear, you know you can’t fight the creeds, the only way for you to do that, is help us get information from them, so we will use to melt out Justice to them, in respect to avenging your father, Oscar said kemi saw light in what he said, but it still pained her, that Joshua was the one that killed her father. Did Joshua Knew all along, and pretended not to be aware, but instead
closed to be telling me soothing words and making me love him the more? I am so confused she said.
