“It’s seems they are working for the blacked masked assassin, Just as we saw on the street camera, they wore the same black dress the masked assassin always wore”
Det stones explained.
Liam sighs and touch Olivia’s cold nose.
“The blacked female assassin do this”
He said…
“But not to worry, Am going to get her to pay for your death”

Robert asked.
“Really?

It’s just an harmless question”
“They will be here soon”
John said and face jean.
“Jean, am farmished
Is there any breakfast?”
“Wow, am surprised you want what I prepared… Why don’t you eat out anymore?
She asked.
“So, it’s now bad for me to give your food a try? “Alright, I think I will rather eat out than to eat your poison food”
“Well, I hold nothing against you, You can check the kitchen, I prepared breakfast already*
Jean replied.
John looked at her and back at the kitchen direction.
“You truly prepare something?”
“Yeah… Check them out
It’s just scrabbled eggs and bread”
“Does Jean don’t really know how to cook?
Ben whispered to Kate.
“I think you should ask her yourself”
Kate replied loudly.
“Kate…
Ben was upset.
“Ask who what?”
Jean asked. John sighs and walk to the kitchen. Robert closed his eyes to take a little rest.
“Ben is asking maybe you can cook really well in the kitchen”
Kate said.
Oh…
I can’t really cook, but am trying”
Jean replied.
“Am sorry Jean… But don’t feel embarrassed”
Ben apologized.
“Yeah… I understand
Rose is also is lecturing me with some extra cooking lessons”
“That’s great…
I heard rose is a great cook”
Ben said.
“Ben, shut up…
Let’s end that conversation”
Kate said getting upset.
“Why are you suddenly getting upset…?”
Ben asked.
“Am just trying to create a conversation and erase the boring atmosphere… Gosh.
Rose and Andrew finally walked into the living room. They both sat down and looked at everyone.
“A fight early in this morning?
Rose asked seeing the almost heated argument between Kate and Ben.
“Sorry about that, Rose..
Robert opened his eyes.
“Finally… Do you know how long we have been waiting?”
Robert said.
“Oh… We are sorry about that
Rose refused to let me leave”
Andrew said and shrugged.
“Let you leave?
Did she tie you down?”
Kate wondered.
“Don’t not mind what he is saying…
She smile..
How are we going to go about Maddie?”
Rose changed the topic.
“Getting the file and also have her killed if we have the chance”
Robert muttered.
“Is there anything else we want to do?”
“I already talked this with Andrew,Maddie is a friend of mine
We can’t have her killed”
Rose replied.
“Then what should we do? She can’t just give us the file easily like that?”
Ben said.
“I have to talk to her, we understand ourselves and I will try and get why she is doing all of this”
“It’s seems you two are like best of friends
Kate also said.
John came in with a tray of his breakfast. He looked at everyone and walked to the diner table.
He pour himself a glass of juice and sip a little.

“John, ain’t you part of us here?”
“Sorry boss, but I gat to fill this stomach first”
John replied.
Andrew face Robert.
“What have you done for Maddie to be after you?*
“Nothing I can remember…
Robert replied. Maddie is Rose’s best friend.
Is there something I would have done that rose won’t know about?”
“Maddie and I have known Robert for long time now and I don’t think Maddie has something against him…
Rose said.
She actually idolizes Andrew than you then but am still baffled why she wants you dead”
Am as surprised as everyone”
“Rose?
Can you invite Maddie over?
Kate asked.
“Am going to give a try, but I think maybe going over to see her will be nice”
Coming over to see us might not be a great idea”
Rose said.
“Do you know her place?
Jean asked.
“I think I might just know where she could be”
“Please do, let’s end this once and for all… We get back Robert’s asset and everything get back to normal”
Ben also added.
Robert sighs tiredly.
I need to get back home now, I need rest, I still feel pain where I was shot”
“Robert, I don’t think you are completely fine”
Andrew said.
“How did you get out of the hospital? Cos I know doctor naresh will make sure you are completely fine before you get discharged”
“He wasn’t discharged… He left the hospital very early yesterday”
Rose said.
“We both left the hospital without doctor naresh consent”
“What?
How about your sessions?
Andrew asked worriedly.
“Doctor naresh already let me go before I went over to see Robert”
We left the hospital together when we heard you guys are back”
Rose replied.
“I think you need to go back to the hospital, Robert…
You weren’t finally healed”
Andrew said.
“Yeah, for your health…
I don’t think you are strong yet”
Kate also added.
“Alright, alright…
Am going to go, I should have stayed in the hospital if I know you guys are okay”
Robert said and groaned as he managed to stand up.
Kate quickly stood up and held him.

“Am really tired, Dylan…
Maybe some other time”
Maddie said.
“It’s not going to take time,
We just have to negotiate with them, that’s all”
“Am going to do that some other times.. getting a weapon isn’t that hard”
She replied.
“Okay, that aside…
What should we do about your identity being revealed now?”
“That’s a good thing, they eventually knows who I am now”
Have been hiding for eight months”
“Is that going to affect our plan?”

“We move on… Everything we did planned will be successfull”
“No, I mean what are we going to do next?
“Oh…
That?
Maddie asked.

“I haven’t thought of that yet.. what are we going to do next?”
She thought for a while.
What about a long vacation?”
She smile and face dylan.
“A vacation to have a rest, that would be nice”
Dylan replied.
Maddie sighs and look at him.

🔶 FLASHBACK 🔶
(EIGHT MONTHS AGO)🔶🔶
~(Slauson Avenue)~
“Ma’am… Let me take you to the hospital”
The taxi driver suggested but Maddie seems adamant.
She knew she is not going to make it.
“No, just drop me here, please…
I will be fine”
Maddie replied.
The taxi stopped and Maddie managed to step out of the car.
She held her stomach as she walk slowly to a building. An abandoned building.
She suddenly fall to the ground. Someone wearing a mask on his face came out of the building and rushed to Maddie on the ground.
“Maddie…
Hey, are you okay?”
What happened? ”
Robert kept asking questions.
“Have been loyal to you all this while and now am regretting I will not get to see your face before I die”
Maddie said as she shed tears.
He removed his face mask.
” It’s me Maddie”
Robert reveals himself.
Maddie smiles and touch his face.
“It’s good to see you again”.
I recorded a some voice conversation on my phone, take it and keep it safe.
I don’t have much time again ”
“The phone has some conversations about Olivia. She and Liam are the real murderers”
“They killed you”
She said and suddenly stopped talking.
Her mouth and eyes was still wide opened. Robert cried and close Maddie’s eyes and mouth. He planted a small kiss on her cheeks and stood up.
He looked around and noticed a taxi car coming towards his direction. He quickly wore back his mask and ran out of sight.
The taxi car stopped when Liam noticed a dead body. He stepped out of the car and walk to the dead body on the ground.
It’s Maddie’s body.
“Finally, she is dead..
He smiles and look around before walking back into the taxi vehicle.
“She is dead… They killed her”
Liam fake tears as the driver drives out of vicinity.
” Should we call the cops? ”
The driver asked.
” Yes, please
Liam replied as he shed out fake tears.
The driver drove away.
As soon as the coast is clear, maddie opened her eyes slowly again coughing out softly. She look around.
Everyone had gone including Robert and Liam.
“Robert is still alive”?
How?
She said angrily and stood up. She felt a pain in her stomach.
“Ouch” She winced a little. The knife was still stuck in her stomach.
But that didn’t bother her.
*How did you survive this, Robert?
I thought I killed you myself, I shot you in the head”
Maddie wondered.
“Alright, the battle line is now drawn…
You will pay for what you all did.
Robert, Liam and Olivia, I AM ALL COMING FOR YOU”
“My revenge will shaken California and new York”
