HER ADVERSITY: Chapter 51 – 60
By Obianke Prosper
Chapter Fifty Seven
GRACE POV
A shiver ran down my spine when I heard him mention the name, Dylan. I’d wonder why he called Dylan’s name.
Does he know Dylan? Why does he want me to tell him everything I know about Dylan? Is he asking about the Dylan I know? I sincerely don’t understand.
I felt so confused with all this. I had a lot of questions to ask but this jerk might get angry if I ask him a question.
Gosh! I really want go home, my family must be dmn worried about me. I wonder how they are faring now, what they are doing. Well, probably searching for me by using the police.
That would be great. The police might find me and arrest this ba$tard glaring at me questionably.
“Um… Dylan?”.I said, the confusion evident in my voice. “Whose Dylan?”.
“The one you know, bitch!”.Bitterness clouded his voice and I gulped down feeling scared already.
This man, he looks so dangerous and evil. He can kill me if he wishes to, so I have to try not to make him feel annoyed or angry.
“I don’t know much about him”.What was I even saying. The truth is, I don’t know anything about Dylan except his name, I don’t even know his surname. I know his house address and nothing more.
“What the he.ll are you saying? How dare you lie to me?”.He brought out a pistol from his pocket and caress it slowly. “You seem to have forgotten what I said. If you lie to me, I will blow your freaking brain off!”.
“Am not lying to you”.My voice was shaky, almost incomprehensible. “Am saying the truth. I don’t know much about Dylan, I don’t even know anything about him”.
“You must know something”.His voice was loud and impatient. “At least anything”.
“But I don’t….”.
“Shut up!”.He thundered and I flinched, tears rolling slowly out of my eyes. “Tell me, where is Dylan’s torture house? Where is his ammunitions kept? Tell me something!”.
I almost peed on myself as I felt so defenseless. Tears, big drops were busy wetting my face.
“I don’t know about all that. I…..”.
“Do you think I have the time to listen to this nonsense ya saying? Do you think I can’t just kill you here and now?”.
“Am sorr….”.
“Don’t sorry me, I hate that word. Sorry, sorry, what is that?”.His face was now red, he looks furious. “Listen bch and listen well, I give you ten seconds to answer my questions or else you will have yourself to blame”.
“Please!”.I sobbed, my sweats mixing with my tears. “I don’t know what’s happening. I don’t know why am kept here, I don’t even know why you’re asking about Dylan but believe me, I know nothing about him. We are just classmates…..”.
“Classmates?”.He scoffed with a short lasting chuckle. “Do you think you can lie to me? Or perhaps, do you want me to tell you the truth? Well bch, Dylan is your lover, your boyfriend….”.
“What?”.I asked, shocked. “No, no, you are wrong. Am not his girlfri….”.
“Close that pit you call a mouth!”.He fired and I kept shut immediately. “You like lying, don’t you? And guess what? Am sick and tired of listening to your lies and I will give you five seconds to tell me all you know about Dylan”.
“I already told you, I know nothing about him. That’s the truth!”.
He wanted to say something but his phone rang, cutting him off. I sighed heavily as he answered the call and then everything he said wandered in my mind.
‘Where is Dylan’s torture house? Where are his ammunitions kept?’ And that was when it hit me.
Torture house, Ammunitions. Oh Geez! Ammunitions, weapons, Dylan has that? No, I must be wrong but what about the torture house? It sounds like a house where people are tortured. Wait… Dylan tortures people? Gosh! What is all this about? I don’t understand a thing.
“You rat!”.Before I knew it, a loud stinging slap landed on my cheek and I winced as tears rolled out of my eyes.
The slap was painful, his palm was painful. I felt dizzy for a while as all I saw was blue but even at that, he pulled my hair and a scream tore off from my mouth.
“I don’t have the time, dmmit! I don’t have the time. Because of you, am gonna be killed, am gonna be dead but I wouldn’t allow that. If am gonna die, you will die with me!”.
Another hard slap hit my cheek and I yelped trying to bear the unbearable pains the slaps gave me but I couldn’t. I was feeling dizzy, too dizzy, too sleepy.
“I must take you to Midunk, boss wants to see me and I must present you as a gift to him!”.He hastily untied me and without wasting time, he pulled me from the chair I sat on.

“You bch!”.Another punch hit Mrs Skylar face and she growled, falling weakly to the ground.
She was in the torture house and was been dealt with by Dylan’s boys. It appears that Dylan found out about what she have been doing for some days now, spying on him.
Also, through his CCTV camera he was able to hear the conversation Mrs Skylar made on phone to Logan, the name of the tattooed guy.
They knew him quite well. He was one of the most respected of Duncan’s boy, they knew Duncan would send one of his boys to spy on them, Dylan especially but they never thought it will be through Mrs Skylar.

However, they were furious about it and Dylan made his boys torture her after forcefully bringing her to the torture house.
“Please, oh please, am sorry”.Mrs Skylar cried as punch after punch, blows and kicks rained on her.
Every part of her body aches her. She was weak, she was tired but the boys didn’t seem to care.
“Enough!”.Dylan’s voice ran around the room they were in and the boys after sending glares to the poor woman, they stared at their boss.
“Boss”.Pete, one of the boys called. They sometimes call him boss or master, they hardly call him by his name. “What will we do with this woman? She should be killed”.
“She will be but not now”.Dylan said, his voice strict but low. “She needs to answer my questions.
He turned to the woman who kept crying, biting her lips to suppress her agony.
“Skylar”.He sure didn’t know what to address her as, maybe as you disloyal woman, bch, punk but for some reasons he kept to Skylar deleting the Mrs. She lost her respect already. “Tell me everything you told Logan, I need every single detail”.
Mrs Skylar didn’t answer but when she saw Dylan’s hard glare on her, she swallowed her saliva in fear.
“Grace”.Her lips quivered. “I told him about Grace”.
Dylan’s face grew pale when he heard that and like lightening, he threw a slap on Mrs Skylar’s cheek and she winced, more tears flowing as she held her red cheek.
“Am sorry, please am sorry. I didn’t mean to, it isn’t my fault, he had my child, I had to…..”
“Shut it!”.Dylan said and Mrs Skylar shivered. His voice wasn’t loud but his tone was somewhat scary and horrifying. Everyone in the room felt the anger coming from him. “Where does he stays? Where do you think he stays?”.
“I…In a chemical shop. Sterk Road, shop two”.
“Pete! Caleb!”.Dylan called and Pete and Caleb bowed.
“Boss?”.
“Come with me. We have a fish to catch”.He grabbed his car key which laid on a table nearby and without hesitation, he left the room while Caleb and Pete followed after him.
