CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT

Melissa.

“What’s up dear?. You look happy today..” Said mom, seemed she already noticed my mood.

I smiled with a nod. “Of course am happy mom.” I responded.

“Awn, tell me about it.” She giggled, she always likes it whenever am happy. And why won’t I be happy when I’ve showed myself to the love of my life.

I cleared my throat, “I finally revealed myself to him.” I said.

“Who?.” She arched a brow at me, looking at me with confused eyes….she still doesn’t get what I mean.

I thought of him and blushed, she gasped with her eyes widened in shock. “Ryan………?.”

I nodded. “Yes mom.”

“What??? Are you out of your mind??.” She half yelled.

“Mom what’s wrong?.” I shrugged.

“What were you thinking Melissa??. What if you were caught???. How the hell did that happen anyways?.” She panicked, dropping the vegetables she was about to chop.

“Mom, will you please calm down?.”

“Calm down??.” She questioned softly.

“Yes please.”

She breathe out, nodding her head. “Alright, tell me what happened. How did you guys meet??.”

“Well….uhm…I followed him to a club…without his knowledge though..I just wanted to make sure he is fine mom. And believe me, I had everything in control until he saw me…”

“Huh?.”

“Yeah but he was drunk. I went out of the club and I had no idea he followed me, he didn’t recognized me cause of how drunk he was.

“You could have just left since you said he didn’t recognize you.”

“He passed out, I had no choice but to take him home mom. I couldn’t leave him, am sorry if you’re mad at me mom.” I sighed.

“Mad??. Am not angry at you Lisa. Am just worried, so did you tell him everything…?. About Jacob?.”

“Yes, i did. I also warned him not to disclose what I told him to anyone.” I said.

“Can he be trusted?.”

“Yes mom.”

“Good Lord, I just pray this end well Melissa. Am super scared.” She stated worriedly.

“Don’t be mom, am sure am gonna win this fight. Jacob has to be brought to justice no matter what happens…”

“I know but please be careful.”

“I will.” I chuckled.

“So….when is Kevin coming back from school?.” I asked, bringing up a new conversation.

She checked her wristwatch and faced me. “Oh, in three minutes time.” She responded.

I dropped what I was doing. “I should go pick him up then.”

“Good idea honey.” She smiled.

I moved to the living room, grabbed my jacket and put it on. “Am off mom.” I said.

“Alright bye dear.” She responded from the kitchen.
••

I held his small wrist as we walk hand in hand towards home, he kept giggling as he narrates his experience at school. I smiled, listening attentively to every words he voiced out.

“Mrs Henry is so nice Lisa, she gave me strawberry candy for doing well in my mathematics test!.” He exclaimed happily, showing his uncompleted white teeth.

“Wow, that’s good Kevin!. You just have to keep on studying hard okay?.” I encouraged him.

“Yes Lisa.” He nodded.

“And don’t ever stop being a good kid okay?.”

“Okay!!.” He giggled.

“That’s my boy!.” I roughened his thick black hair, he loves it whenever I do that to him. Oh Kevin….he’s such a sweet little boy, Mrs James’s so lucky to have him as a son..

“Lisa…” He called.

“Yes Kevin?.”

“What do you think mommy’s making for dinner??.” He asked, staring at me excitedly as he waited patiently for my reply.

“Hmm mm…” I touched my chin, gazing up the sky for a brief moment before I responded. “You have to guess Kev.”

“Is….is it Spaghetti with sweet meat balls?.” He asked.

“Nope!.”

“Uh…Macaroni and cheesy cheesy??.”

“Nope, try again..” I chuckled at his cuteness, well..he’s very cute…no doubt bout that.

“Lisa, I can’t guess any more. Can you please tell me?.” He pleaded.

“Okay, mom’s making vegetables salad.”

“Really?.”

“Yeah.”

“Cool! Can’t wait to get home!.” He exclaimed excitedly.

I noticed two men sitting outside a small store smoking ¢igarettes, obviously having fun. One of ’em stared at me like I’ve grown two heads, the other bald headed one tapped him to stop staring at me.

I held Kevin’s hand tight as we walked past them, “J.erk.” I muttered under my breathe….I wonder why he was looking at me in that way….

Riley.

Who are you?.” The bch asked again, gaining his attention. He has no idea bout my presence yet, he was cleaning his wet hair with a small towel.

I didn’t respond to her stupid question, I suddenly became mad. I stared at him, we both looked at each other…..I averted my gaze from him and faced the lady.

“No one, sorry to disturb.” I responded as she gave me a weird look, I glanced at him one last time and walked away.

I got to the guest room, kept my luggage and shut the door closed. I breathe out, leaning against the door….I feel so…..hurt??. Why???. Why do i feel this way….?. So what if he’s with another lady..???!. Common Riley….stop this nonsense!. You’re better than this….stop it!!.

I left the door side and moved to the bed, laid on it. I touched my left cheek, it’s wet…what the h’ll?. Why am I shedding a tear….?. Because of what I saw…?.

Get over this Riley…!. I can’t be jealous cause of…..of that wh’re..! Scott….he’s a casanova and i shouldn’t feel bad about it!.

Scott.

I was bewildered when i saw her standing in front of my door step but I didn’t show it. What the hell is she doing here and how did she get here??. Many thoughts ran in my head, I just couldn’t think straight at the moment.

“Who are you?.” Veronica asked as she looked at me. Those black eyes, I don’t know why my stomach ached immediately our eyes met.

“No one, sorry to disturb.” She said as I felt a sting in my chest, she threw me a brief look before she walked out of our sight.

“What was that?.” I mumbled, feeling confused. Why do I feel this way…..not again!. She back hugged me, jolting me out of my thoughts. “Baby, are you okay?.” She whispered in my ears.

I don’t know why but I felt disgusted, i pulled away from her and faced her, she looked confused as she asked me, “What’s wrong?.”

“Leave.” I stated coldly.

“What?.” She questioned with a shock look.

“Get out Veronica.” I said in a low voice.

“But we haven’t even started yet, are you out of your mind or what?. You called me, remember?.” She complained.

“Don’t let me repeat myself!.” I said through gritted teeth.

“Seriously????. Don’t tell me this is because of that maid that was here minutes ago…” She scoffed.

My bIood boiled up with range at the mention of ‘maid’, I frowned and got close to her. “What the fk did you just say?.” I asked with a smirk on my lips.

“That maid…..”

I $Iapped her cheek before she could complete whatever she wanted to say. She held her cheek, staring at me with widened eyes. “Get the fk out before i lose it bch.” I told her.

She rushed to where she kept her clutch, hastily put on her heels, strode to the door and got out. I let out a frustrated sigh, not sure of what got into me just now. Why did i react like that when she called Riley a maid??.

Gosh….!

Jacob.
~
I sank down on the settee, touched my sweaty forehead and closed my eyes. Gosh…this feels so good, I opened my eyes and stared at the white substance in my hands.
I inhaled it again….feeling high as fk, I dropped it on the table opposite me when she entered the living room.

“Jay, you still deal with ¢o¢aine?.” She asked.

“Yeah…” I sniffed.

“I thought you’ve quit taking it.” She said fixing her gaze on her smartphone.

“I didn’t Jessy.”

We gazed at the door immediately we heard a knock. “Are you expecting any of your chicks today?.” She asked with an eye roll.

“Just go get it.”

She stood up, walked towards it and swung the door open revealing Brad and Phil, my boys. What are they doing here?.

“Boss.” They greeted in unison..

“What’s up?. Why are you two here?. You guys didn’t tell me bout your visit..” I sniffed.

“Uhm we’re sorry about that boss but Phil gat something important to tell you sir..” Said Brad.

“What is it?.” I sighed.

Phil cleared his throat and began, “Sir…do you remember the bch we abducted and killed?. I….think I saw her today sir.” He said.

“Who?.” I asked not getting their point. I’ve killed so many people, who the heck are they talking about?.

Then, my mind drifted to her….Melissa. I don’t know why she’s the first person that came to my mind but they better be joking.

“Who?.” I repeated.

“Uhm….her name…..” Phil, he touched the back of his head, obviously trying to remember the person’s name.

“Anna.” He said.

“You guys should leave, Jacob isn’t in the mood right now.” Jessica rolled her eyes.

“Yeah get out.” I scoffed, what nonsense!.

“But sir…we’re being serious.” Brad tells as they moved towards the door.

“Oh…yeah. Melissa….it was Melissa I saw.” Phil suddenly voiced out loud as they were about to leave.

What??!. I faced them. “What did you say?.” I asked calmly, not believing my ears.

“It’s Melissa boss.” He replied.

“How come?. Do you guys know what you’re talking about?.” Jessy exclaimed looking surprised.

“Where did you say you saw her?.” I questioned, suddenly feeling uncomfortable as I rose up to my feet.

“Phil and I were having fun at a local shop when we saw her walking with a kid.” Brad explained briefly.

“Are you sure she could be the one?.” Jessy scoffed.

“Yes ma’am.”

“With a kid?. Whose kid?.” I asked.

“We have no idea sir.”

I sighed. “Alright, you two can leave.”

“Yes boss.” They replied.

I turned to face Jessica when they left, Melissa…..she’s alive?.?? How’s that possible??. I killed her……how could she survive….!.

“Do you think this is true?.” She asked.

“Yeah…remember when her boyfriend said he saw her but he wasn’t sure bout it….?.”

“Yeah?.” She nodded.

“He did saw her, Melissa…. and am sure she’s hiding wherever she is. I’ve always had the feeling she haven’t left this world….I was right all along…Melissa…, very smart bch.”

“What you gonna do now?.”

“It’s time for her to visit h’ll.” I smirked.
