DEEP SECRETS
EPISODE 2
A concierge had heard a female voice shout for help and dashed toward the direction of her voice; on his way he met a
man calmly leaving a hotel room. The concierge studied the man momentarily as he passed him before continuing his run.
There were lots of doors to knock on to find the woman who had cried for help.
While he knocked on a door, it occurred to him to go check the room he saw the stranger leaving moments earlier. A gentle
push on the door swung it open;
cautiously he stepped into the room but was stopped in his track when he saw Stanley lying in a pool of blood. His eyes
darted about the room and he saw Eve on the floor, lying silently amid fresh blood. There was an alarm bell on the wall, he
sprang toward it and held it down for about a minute and then dashed into the hallway and began to call for help, “Help!!
Help!! A man and his wife have been murdered in their room! Help!!!” In just seconds the hallway was swarmed with
the hotel security and guests. While some petrified guests packed their luggage and
bolted out of the hotel, the hotel security
and medical team checked Stanley and Eve to see if they could get any pulse. There was a little confusion; some thought they
got pulse while others were not sure they did. They had to however haul the newlywed couple into an ambulance and sped off to the nearest hospital.

8:30 PM , HOTEL COPA CABANA.
A lady in her forties lay n@ked in her bed with a young man in his early thirties by her side. For hours the young man had
been working himself sore in bed to meet his end of a bargain. She shoved the drained young man aside and reached for her phone; punching a few keys on her
phone she placed a call to some guy,
“Hello Leroy. Have the lovebirds been sent home early?”
“As I speak to you, they are before the pearly gates of heaven waiting to know if they would be let in. Sadly the lady had no clothes on when I put her on a sudden flight out of our world.”
“I am glad they are home now. Don’t worry about the girl; the angels of God will clothe her if she makes it past the pearly gates.”
“Good to hear that, it is very comforting.”
“You were a ghost out there, were you not?”
“A boy saw me, but I doubt he can pin the hit on me. I was just another guest in their hotel.”
“I don’t like the sound of that Leroy.
Go back, find the boy and put him to rest.”
“Is that necessary?” “It is my wish and I want it done.”
“Okay Mam, your wish is my
command.”
***************
Four Hours Later, Eden Crest Suits. Mayo, one of Stanley’s friends is on the floor of his hotel room. Half n@ked and
sitting on Mayo is Stella. Stella is also another of Stanley’s friends. After the
wedding reception, she had made an excuse to her husband and two children and sneaked into Eden Crest for a raunchy s*xual marathon with Mayo who was also married and had children.
“We all are going to miss Stanley, especially we ladies. He certainly knew how to make a woman happy. I hate that b—h he married. She came along with her holier-than-thou attitude and took him away from us,” Stella said with a wry look on her face.
“They are not going to last long together. In fact they are going to make a big sad story
together.”
Stella dropped the back of her hand on Mayo’s forehead and felt it for a moment. “Are you okay? You don’t seem well, do you?” she asked Mayo.
“I can’t get your meaning Stella.”
“As much as I have grouse with Eve for taking my best s*xual partner away from me, I believe they are made for each other. I know it; they will
make the best couple in the whole wide world. I am surprised you can’t see that Mayo.”
“Don’t worry, you can’t get my meaning.”
“Whatever… I am going to miss Stanley you know.”
“You sound like you had him many
times. I heard you didn’t.”
“I had him only a few times. He said he had found the truth, whatever that was, and stopped bedding me. But I think he saw how spoilt I am and that he had no future with me.
Look at me, I am a married woman who has two children, yet I am here n@ked with you and have been making love to you for
the past two hours. Right now I am sure my husband is busy at home making dinner for my children. The sad part is that
when I get home he is going to look me straight in the eye and thank God for a wonderful woman I am to him before taking me to his bed to spend the night
with me. I think hell is made for people like me.”
“You are right; hell is for you and you are going to have a front row in it.”
“How about you piggy? You are going to be an usher in it. Of the four children Bimpe has
for her husband, how many are yours?”
Mayo pumped three fingers in the air signaling to her three were his.”
“Oh Christ! You are the son of Lucifer. Thank God I have had no child for you. All my children will turn out like my husband.”
“You can’t be that sure, your last child might be mine.”
Stella slapped him across the face and yelled, “Son of Lucifer, you have no child with me!”
Mayo sprang from under Stella, tumbling her to the floor; sitting on top of her he began to mock her, “You don’t know me, but there is one thing about me which you are right about,
I am indeed and usher for hell, and right now I am ushering you to hell.”
The look on Mayo’s face was beastly; Stella had not seen him that way before. Even though she
knew he was playing, she was however becoming afraid of him.
“Get off me; I want to go back to my husband!” Mayo didn’t listen; He lowered himself on her and maneuvered her into another round of lasciviousness.

10:40 PM, CLARA’S APARTMENT
Clara is lying on a couch in her living room, half asleep. On the table opposite her, was
her Samsung Galaxy phone. The phone vibrated loudly as a call came in; Clara startled out of sleep, sighed and then lazily
picked her call,
“Hello Steve, what is it? You just woke me up from sleep.”
“Clara, Stanley and Eve have been shot dead!”
“What!!! It’s a joke right?!”
“Some shooter broke into their hotel room and shot the two of them. I have been running around the city trying to find the hospital where their bodies are. About thirty minutes ago I
found the hospital but the police won’t let me see their bodies!”
On the other end of the phone Clara began to sob terribly.
“Clara! Clara!! Stop!! Listen to me, whoever did this might be after the rest of us. We
have to meet now! I just can’t reach Mayo and Stella, Chucks and Bimpe are on their way to your house now. Please see if you can get a hold of either Mayo or Stella. I am
scared to death; their phones are off.”
Clara stood to her feet, her eyes darting about her apartment while waves of fear shot through her. The rustling of the
curtains by night breeze made her dash into her bedroom and shut the door.
In that circumstance her bedroom
suddenly looked too big for her, so she ran into her bathroom. She had to run back into her bedroom when she thought she
heard footsteps by her bathroom window. To her, the safest place to hide was under her bed and so she squeezed herself under it. At her door outside were Bimpe
and Chucks, banging loudly on the door for her to let them in. Under the bed, Clara prayed fervently for help and forgiveness for her sins. When her phone rang, she almost threw it away, thinking it was
going to give her position away. The call was from Chucks, she had to pick it when she saw it was him,
“Chucks where you are?” she cried desperately.
“I am at your door with Bimpe, where are you?”
“Thank God! I am coming to get the door.”
Hastily she pushed her way out from under the bed. By 11:15 pm all of them, Chucks, Clara,
Bimpe Mayo, Stella and Steve were in Clara’s apartment mourning their dead friends
and wondering who might have shot them and the reasons for that. They all had secrets, the sort they would not like to talk
about. They sat, looking helplessly at each other.

4:30 AM, St. BRIGGS CLINIC
Since early night when Eve and Stanley were brought to the hospital, teams of doctors had worked their fingers sore to
revive and save their lives. About 3:00 am, the doctors broke up and left with sad faces. No one was told if Eve and Stanley
were saved or not; but about 4:30 am, a nurse was heard telling someone outside
the hospital that the couple was alive. The police man sitting next to her was not sure
who she meant. As if to move away from his colleagues and smoke, the police officer placed a call to a certain lady,
“Hello, you asked me to let you know if the couple makes it or not, I think they are alive. The doctors in Briggs Clinic may have saved their lives. Whoever you send here to finish them off must be very professional. There
is a squad of well trained policemen here; they will shoot everything which is considered a threat over here.”
“Why do you think they are alive? Leroy told me they are dead. I spoke with him again about ten minutes ago.”
“I don’t care what Leroy told you, I have been here for hours, I have not seen the couple moved to the morgue. Just now I overheard a nurse telling someone over the phone that the couple is alive. I am just doing my job, you do yours.” The police officer hung up.
***************
“Hello Leroy, Eve and Stanley might still be alive. I just spoke with Adams; he is at
Briggs Clinic. He thinks doctors may have somehow saved their lives. Go find out if he wants free cash or is telling the truth. If by chance he is telling the truth, you know
what to do. Good night Leroy.”
“Good night miss!”
“Hold on Leroy… he also mentioned that there are some well trained policemen at the hospital. Be careful please.”
“I will.”
