Enenche 4
Enenche called his brother and asked him to meet him at their usual hang out spot. He drove to the bar immediately. He ordered for himself and his brother who arrived few minutes after him.
"You look worried hope all is well bro" Adole asked him.
"Let's finish first then I will tell you everything." Enenche said sipping his beer.
"You know quite alright that iam not into suspense. I hate suspense and you know that." Adole said pouring the beer into the glass cup In front of him.
"You need to relax first Oyine. I will tell you everything after we finish."
"If you say so." He said and gulped the whole beer in the cup. They finished about ten minutes later.
"We met with Jeremy." He said looking at his brother.
"When?" He asked surprised.
"Few months ago. His mother was sick and was brought to the hospital where I work. He didn't even recognise me. I told him who I am. He was surprised though but he seem not to regreat a bit. I injected his mother with methanol,it was a mistake bro. I wanted to revenge......"
"By injecting his mother with methanol which could have killed her?" Adole cut him short.
"I also regreat doing that Oyine."
"Gosh! You could have called me and inform me. Two heads are always better that one." He said angrily.
"That is not even where the problem is. I told his wife and she filed for divorce." He paused and looked at his brother.Adole was dump folded.
"God! Enen how could you do that? Seriously,you fucked up big time. I never thought you will do that."
"I know bro and iam sorry. The thing is that I received a threat latter today which I didn't take serious until the shooting today."
"And what is the link between you and the shooting that happened today?" Adole asked.
"I was meant to be a warning to me. I was at the mall when the shooting happened. Here is what I saw in my car." Enenche said giving his brother a small piece of paper.
"There won't be a next time? This Jeremy of a guy is sick. After what he did to you he still have the gut to threaten you? He must be a joker. He doesn't know who he is joking with. I have waited too long to confront the idiot."Adole said almost shouting.
"Your voice brother." Enenche said.
"Iam sorry. Iam angry that is why. But you know what? We are going to hit back on that animal very soon and it is going to be hard." He said. Enenche smiled. His brother is the best thing to happen in his life. They both love each other.
How could i have been without Adole? He helped me move on and is always there for me. Enenche thought to himself
"What are you thinking of bro?" Adole asked bringing him back to reality.
"Nothing." He answered smiling. They ordered for more beer and chatted for some minutes before they went to home.
Enenche came back from work one evening tired. He entered the bathroom to have his birth. He was still in the bathroom when he heard the door opened. He was very sure he locked the front door. He was about to ask who it is when he heard foot steps. He quickly tied the towel and tip toed to the door. He opened it gently and peeped. He saw four shadows holding guns. He started shivering and quietly close the door. He entered his room and lock the door. He opened the wardrobe and brought out a pair of trouser and a shirt and wore them.
"I must think of how to escape asap." He said to himself. He unplugged his phone and put it in his pocket. Yes! The ceiling,there is an opening in the ceiling. He remembered. He held the window and climbed the wardrobe. He pushed the ceiling and entered then close it back. He brought out his phone and phone and on the flash light.
I need your help brother. Four men with guns broke into my house now. Please help me brother. He text his brother and put the phone on silent. Just then he heard his bedroom door being banged. His heart skipped. They struggled with the door for few minutes then stopped.
"Hello Honourable." A deep voice said. He is talking to someone over the phone"Yes E be like say the guy no dey house. We don check everywer we no see am." He said. He was quiet for sometimes listening to the person at the other end of the call. "Ok. We go check again no problem." He dropped the call. "Oga Jeremy say em people see as the guy dey enter house make una find the guy kill am sharp sharp make we dey go." He said in pidgin.
Jeremy at it again. So this guy want to kill me for sure. I must survive and will revenge if I do. The sound of the door falling made him jump and almost fall. He stood up and walked on the brick towards the direction of the kitchen. He broke the ceiling and hurriedly climbed down. He tip toed to where he keeps his spray and brought out the pepper spray. Thanks to his sister who advice him to always keep pepper spray at home in case of such incident like this. He saw the pastel inside the mortar and picked it. He walked to the switch and switch off the light. He stood at a corner waiting for anyone that will enter.
Your comments brings joy to my heart. Thank you.
