The devil who loved me - Chapter 96

I was rolling in bed.

It was difficult to sleep, everywhere felt like Jafar, from the smell to the bold colors of the room. I tried listening to music but they were his songs. Naeto C’s “Kini big deal” was working for me until; Naeto C said “Kilode my darling?” and I wanted to die. Jafar loved that part of the song.

So I went to the kitchen, two guys were smoking Kush there, they quickly exited as I entered, I picked up a piece of cloth and a bucket full of water and went outside to Jafar’s Benz. It was in the same shape in which i had brought it back. The back Glass was still broken, with shreds of glass on the seats, his blood had stained the front seats. I soaked the chairs with water and detergent and started brushing the blood out. In no time the contents of the bucket was deep red..i sobbed as I washed.

My hands were bruised when I called it quits, I sat on the back seat when a phone rang, I picked up my phone then I realized it was another phone that had rang. I found the Nokia phone beneath the seat; it was the phone that the police-man who was leaning close to my window was holding. it must have dropped in the car when Jafar hit him.

The excitement I got from finding the phone was nothing compared to how I felt when I went through the contents…towards the end..i became shocked…I called Uche, told him to meet me in Jafar’s car.

Uche: I think say you don sleep..

Me: no..i couldn’t..

Uche : are you serious?

I just nodded my head…I was still dumbfounded…

Uche : where did you find it?

I told him how everything happened, including Jafar’s last attempt to avoid the tragic incident.

Me: you know what I realized?…Jafar actually hit the guy at my side so he won’t be able to shoot at me, in the last moments he put me first..

Uche : him na correct guy…

Me: VC called me, asking for a meeting with us this weekend..

Uche ; what do you think?

Me: would Jafar have attended?

Uche : Yes, he likes the VC..

Me: we should go then…

Uche: so when do we move?

Me: move where?

Uche : with this information we have got…or are u not up to it?

Me: oh…as soon as possible…

Uche : are you sure?

Me: I can barely wait…but I need a favor…

Uche: what?

Me : let’s keep it to just you and I for now…

Uche: No problem…

I bade him goodnight…

I woke up some hours later, it was very cold and I was hungry..i went back to the room to find the left over sugar-cane Jafar and I had munched in the fridge. As I ate it I thought of the past few months..i remembered the meeting I had with Abayomi, Kofo, Michael and Uche…I never knew that gathering would change my life ..But it did…

And tomorrow, it was about to be changed forever..
