Malcolm kept roaring as he continued driving at high velocity towards the fast, big jeep.
His fingers opened the lock and and he took out a grenade. written solely by sommy pearl f.
He hit the both engine and brake hard and squeezed his sweaty face.
Suddenly, his car jumped high on the air.
Dew widened his eyes and looked up.
The car was literally above him.
His men were stunned.
Malcolm rapidly opened the grenade and targeted it down before releasing it.
“F*ck!” Dew noticed this and jumped out without his men.
The grenade landed and the grenade blew up, instantly.
The huge fire from it, destroyed the area around.
Dew was sitting on the floor, some miles away.
He broke his leg when he jumped down from the jeep.
He growled angrily and looked at Malcolm’s damaged car zooming off.
Meanwhile, in the car, Malcolm was weak.
He was driving with only his left arm.
His right arm got a fracture as a result of his car harsh landing.
His car had dropped mightily on the floor after gravity pulled it down, forcefully.
His left arm trembled and recieved a shock, which fractured it immediately.
He was slightly injured on his forehead cause it slammed the steering wheel as a result of the landing and speed.
He was in great pains but he kept driving.
When he saw he was almost at the main open road, he stopped his car, took out a black briefcase and the the transparent file.
Afterwards, he came down.
He tried to open the briefcase and took out another set of suit which he wore.
He wiped his face with a hanky, then, arranged the transparent file in the briefcase.
Malcolm was looking smart and good.
He sighed and took out a lighter from his pocket.
He lit it and threw it in the car before strolling away, holding the briefcase.
There was no CCTV cameras around that particular silent area.
Just then, and behind him, the car exploded and he smirked in satisfaction.
After walking for a long period, he saw a taxi and boarded it.
The driver took him home.

Ariana was still bored to the core.
After thinking and searching for what to do, she finally saw a drawing paper and pencil.
She slowly kept it on the low table and sat on the floor.
She held the pencil and looked at the drawing sheet.
“Can I even draw? I’m just gonna try though, at least to keep the boredom away”
“Hmmm…So, what should I draw?” She looked, around.
“I’m just gonna draw my room” She giggled.
22 MINUTES LATER***
“Are you serious now? You’ve got to be kidding me. Am I the one who actually drew this?? I can draw! Wow!! Awesome, Can’t believe this,,, Maybe I use to be an artiste before I lost my memory” She said with all smiles, looking at the drawing.
She was about adding more to her drawing but she stopped when she heard the door opening.
“Mister?!!” She gushed.
But remembering the fight they had made made her slightly frown.
“No! I won’t welcome him”
“Well, at times, Mister can be very annoying but that does not mean I’ll keep grudges with him. I’m just gonna show him what I drew though and leave” She said and stood up, holding the drawing sheet.
She went to the large sitting room and gasped. written by sommy pearl f.
The drawing sheet fell from her hand, unknowingly.
Malcolm had slump on the floor.
He was still tightly holding the briefcase though.
Ariana rushed to him and pulled his face over.
“Gosh. Mister? What happened to you?” She whispered staring at his white, pale face. His lips were dry and cracky.
His eyes were gently closed.
“Mister? Please open your eyes and talk to me” She worriedly said.
Malcolm slowly opened his eyes. He was breathing fast.
“Mister, wait. Let me call Cindy. You are frightening me” She sobbed, quietly and stood up.
Malcolm quickly held her arm with his fractured hand. He groaned in pains.
“What’s it, Mister?” She turned to him.
“Don’t…” He weakly, mumbled.
“And what do you mean by that? You look really sick and weak and you are telling me not to call Cindy? Or you don’t want her to get worried cause of the state you’re in right now? I understand she’s your cousin but she ought to know. She’ll understand too. Besides, she’s a good doctor. She’ll treat you”
Malcolm shook his head.
He didn’t want them asking him questions about where he went to, and how he got into a fight.
Ariana sighed.
“I don’t care. I’m gonna call her”
She took his hand off and started leaving.
“Please…” He Mõ@ned out causing Ariana to stop.
She slowly turned to him.
HALF, AN HOUR LATER**
“I’m not good at this” Ariana shook her head and looked at Malcolm.
She placed a cast on his fractured arm and a small plaster on the cut he had on his forehead.
She rubbed balm and ointment on his back and joints.
She also gave him aspirin and some pain killers.
“You tried and unbelievably, treated me better” Malcolm said and Ariana shot a quick smile.
“Hmm…Hmm” She faked a cough.
“So, are you gonna tell me what happened to you?” She questioned.
“Huh…It was no big deal. Uh…So, I just had a small accident”
“You call that small?” Ariana frowned.
“Let just forget about it, okay?” He muttered.
She looked at him.
m for a while and nodded.
“And please, don’t tell the others about it. Let it be our little secret”
Ariana smiled.
“So, now, Mister has a secret with me, feels good”
She raised a brow.
“Are we gonna also keep our secret from Rhoda?”
“Yes, even from Rhoda too…and my cousin, Cindy. Infact, from all the gangs”
Ariana almost chuckled but she held herself.
“Mister. I wanna show you something. Give me a sec” She smiled and left.
Malcolm looked at the briefcase beside him and sighed in relief.
Just then, Ariana dashed in and stood beside him.
“Mister. Look! I drew this myself!” She showed him the drawing.
He was amazed.
“You drew this?”
“Surprise! I was surprised myself” She looked at Malcolm, wearing a bright smile.
Malcolm looked at her pretty face and nearly got lost for a while.
“Mister? Is it pretty?” She looked at him.
Malcolm gently blinked.
“Yeah. So pretty” He whispered, still not taking his eyes away from her face.
