CRAZY SIDE CHICK
Chapter 13
“We are done,they are both dead,” reported a thug over the phone.
Daniel grinned as he pulled back his office chair and said,” good,now go and fetch this guy in the pictures am sending you at the same residence I gave you the address.Take him away and kill him too.And make sure you leave no traces of him.Burry him!”
“Count it done,” assured the thug.
“I trust you guys,” said Daniel.
As Daniel hung up the call,he walked to a picture frame that could reflect his image and stood in front of it.He saw beyond the picture that he looked a weird and different being for a moment.It was as if he had completely lost his conscience and he was going astray like a mad stray dog.He had never killed before.Except for sending the thugs to beat up his enemies he made at the drinking club.
He opened his mouth and looked at his gap between the upper teeth and said,”like I got my tooth knocked out for my pretty Majo,and I will never have it back,so will Mwewa get knocked out of your life,Majo.Iam never giving up on you now.I will make sure you keep loosing your memory so that you can start a new life with me.”
He turned away from the picture frame and said,” but first let this little game of mine finish!”

Mwaka got back home hoping to find Daniel’s thugs guarding up the place as agreed,but there was nobody!The locks to her apartment doors were broken and the doors were open.And there was a trail of blood by the front door.She ran to the closet and found Mwewa’s phone and everything else in the apartment intact though scattered, except the gun Mwewa had.The apartment was messed like there had been a fight.
Did he break out?She asked herself.She had to call Daniel.
“Hello” Daniel answered.
“Where are your guys?They should be here as you promised!” Asked Mwaka.
“Oh yeah they came there but did not find Mwewa.The bastard broke out of your apartment before they could find him.” Said Daniel.
“Dan,this place looks like there was a fight.There’s blood stains and everything is not in order,” said Mwaka ,panting.
“He might have hurt himself while trying to break the doors,” said Daniel.
“Ok…but where is he?Is he at the office?” Asked Mwaka.
“No he’s not.I don’t know where he is,” replied Daniel.
“Am I not in trouble for locking him up?Cause this blood is horrific!If it’s his then he is badly hurt.Aah am confused…I can’t find his gun too…maybe your boys came and had a fight with him?” said Mwaka.
“Calm down Mwaka,okay!My boys never had a fight with anyone.They came and didn’t find Mwewa.Whatever happened there will find out soon,okay?” Said Daniel.
“Ok…please don’t let him hurt or hate me,you know I love him.I just want us to be together with him and this child am carrying for him.I don’t want a mess like this…oh my God,” said Mwaka,in an emotionally depressed tone.
“Yeah..I will..I will talk to him when he shows up,” Said Daniel.

“Please where am I?” Mwewa woke up in a very strange building of ages,tied against a pillar.He felt so stiff and his whole body ached and bl00d oozed from his nostril and from a cut on his forehead.He had been knocked out unconscious by Daniel’s thugs at Mwaka’s apartment,a few hours ago.
“You made it so hard for us to drag you out of that apartment and that’s what has kept you alive up to now.You don’t cooperate!” One of the same thugs who,with his colleague standing by his side now, had killed Dr Sinyiza and the police detective,was talking.
“If you are a religious man,we can let you say a prayer before you die here!” Said the thug.
Mwewa weakly looked up the thug in his scar face and said,” why do you have to kill me?What have I done?I have never had enemies in my entire life.”
The thug knelt before Mwewa gave an evil smile, ignoring his lamenting,he chinned Mwewa up with his pistol and said,” do you wish to say a prayer or you wish to walk a rough road to your grave?”
“Who sent you?” Mwewa asked as he hea
The thug stood up and stepped backwards and pointed the gun right at Mwewa,”you ask too many questions!But if you must find whom to haunt after a shot,ask the dead they’ll guide you .Now close your eyes!”
“Please!!” Mwewa said.
“Close your eyes,I said!” Shouted the thug.
He was about to pull the trigger when a mixed voices of a crowd approached.Some among the voices were singing religious songs.Perhaps they were coming for a burial because here it was a grave site.So the thug had his hand that held the gun put away by the other.
“Iwe you said this old cemetery house was too old and isolated but what are those people coming to do?” The thug whispered in another’s ear.
“Aah..we both know this is an old and locked down cemetery.I now think it has been re-opened.”
“So what do we do now?”
“You know you can’t fire a bullet.It will be noisy and people might get our faces on our way out.We dont know who’s out there.So let’s wait here for a while.”
“Wait here?My guy just seal this guy’s mouth so he won’t shout for help and let’s leave him here for sometime. Let’s leave this place before we get caught.We will come back later to finish him.”

“Where is Mr Mwewa Mulusa?” Mr Binwell Tembo asked the audience in the conference room.
Everyone looked at each other and seemingly nobody knew except for Daniel who sat in his conference chair with his face down.
“Daniel?” Mr Binwell Tembo got his attention.
“Yes…yes ..sir?” Daniel stammered up.
“You seem out of place..” said Mr Binwell Tembo.
“No sir…I mean..yes sir..”
“What’s bothering you?”
“Nothing sir,just that I have a lot to digest on my mind,”
“Okay.But we need your attention in here” said Mr Binwell Tembo and continued,” where is your colleague,Mr Mulusa?Has he not reported yet?”
“No he hasn’t reported for work,sir” said Daniel.
“Well ladies and gentlemen,this meeting cannot continue without the presence of Mr Mwewa Mulusa as he is the course of purpose for this meeting.Until he comes,we shall not proceed.Thank you.” Said the chairman,the Director Mr Binwell Tembo.
So everyone got back to their respective offices.But Daniel remained and wished to talk with Mr Binwell Tembo.
“Sir,am worried,” said Daniel.
“About what?” Asked Mr Binwell Tembo.
“About Mwewa,” said Daniel.
“Yes..me too.But where could he be with his phones off?”
“Sir, correct me if am mistaken.But let’s think about this: Mrs Majory Mulusa,his wife got drugged and dumped away probably from home, and the following day Mwewa is nowhere to be seen.I think he had a serious fight with Mrs Majory Mulusa and he might be on the run after hearing the news that his wife did not die.”
Mr Binwell Tembo thought calmly and pulled a chair to sit and listen.He gestured for Daniel to sit too.
“I know you and Mwewa are friends,” began Mr Binwell Tembo,” is there something you know about his marital relationship with my daughter that I need to know of?I mean are there been some disputes between them ?”
“I wouldn’t say they quarrel,” Daniel was saying,” but…in any marriage two people are likely to quarrel..and….Mwewa is an unpredictable type of guy…”
” I don’t understand,” said Mr Binwell Tembo.
“I mean Mwewa can do the unexpected,” said Daniel,” I Know he is my friend but at times I doubt him because of his deceitful character.”
“Deceitful character?Please get straight to the point”
“Sir,Mwewa cheats on his wife and as iam speaking,there is a girl carrying his child.”
“What?Are you sure of what you are saying?”
“I know the girl sir.And I think his wife found out about her and then ,maybe some fight broke and maybe…am saying maybe he tried to do something to his wife__with or without intentions to kill her___ so that you wouldn’t find out that he has been hurting your daughter and stop him from becoming the new Director…. because Mrs Mulusa got drugged the yesterday and today you are supposed to crown him as the new MD.”
“How did you know am making him the new Director?”
“He told me ,” said Daniel.
“Well, thank you for your information.If he doesn’t show up tomorrow morning,I will call the police to launch a manhunt on him if indeed he is missing,” said Mr Binwell Tembo.
Daniel remained alone in the conference room as Mr Binwell Tembo walked out.
He smiled at himself and thought,” tommorow morning? Am sure Mwewa is dead and burried by now?And there will be no traces of him forever!”
