“So,,,, This is today’s record for Malcolm. He went to the gym today. Had desert and ÇOçktail for breakfast. He really didn’t do anything much. He never had any visitor either” Ariana said.
“Hmm…Anything else?” Cindy asked.
Ariana swallowed.
“Nothing else” She shook her head.
THE NEXT DAY**
THE BOY’S ROOM**
Ken was stretching his arms whilst exercising his body up and down, on the upper bed rails.
Kev was reading some huge books while Oliver was inverting something.
Ken grunted and jumped down. He wiped his sweaty body and came close to Oliver.
“What are you doing?” Ken asked.
“Inventing” Oliver replied, without looking up. He was fully concentrated on his work.
“And what are you inventing?” Kev looked at him. written by sommy pearl f.
Oliver looked up at the twins.
“A better face shifting item. Rather than the glasses we use,,, I thought that it would be better getting something portable and firm” He answered.
“And what would we use your invention for? I thought Malcolm said it’s over” Ken teased.
“Indeed…Gosh,,, I keep failing this invention. The sunglasses wasn’t even that hard. I’m trying to make it into a wrist watch” Oliver said.
“And trust me, It ain’t easy at all” He shook his head.
“You can do this. Thomas Edison tried a lot of times before inventing the bulb, you know?” Ken said.
“True…” Oliver nodded.
“Rather than doing that now, Why not do that later?” Kev asked.
“Why not? I’m less busy,,, so”
“We still need to know the welfare of Malcolm. His whereabouts and next step. Have you hacked into the cameras in the room yet so that we can monitor him?” Kev asked.
Oliver sighed deeply.
“Please,,, I’ll do that later”

Ariana slowly walked to Malcolm’s door. She looked at the time.
“He should still be at the gym by now” She thought and pressed the numeric buttons, 7…5…3
“Lemme try 1 for the last unit” She thought and tried it but it was wrong.
She tried 2, but it was still wrong.
She finally tried 3 and it opened. She smiled happily and entered.
She guess right, Malcolm was’nt in. She looked around and her eyes fell on the cabinet. She was about walking to it when her eyes fell on the calender on the wall.
It had a red circle on a date.
“What could that be?” She thought and walked to it.
“Olive-Cruz tree? Wait,, Could it be that…Malcolm is going to the Olive-Cruz tree tomorrow?” She gasped.
The door made a ping sound and suddenly opened. Ariana whose eyes were widen quickly hid inside the cabinet.
She peeped from it and saw Malcolm walk in.
“Gosh” She thought.
“Oh please” She shivered.
Malcolm entered the bathroom and she saw it was her chance. She quickly went out from the cabinet, moved to the door.
She was about opening it when a cold hand held her shoulder.
“Are you the one?” It was Malcolm’s voice.
Ariana was wearing the blonde hair. She gulped heavily.
“The one who has been spying at me all this while? Who sent you and how do you know I’m here?? Lemme see your face!!” He thundered.
“I’m sorry Malcolm” Ariana whispered.
She turned around quickly, grabbed his waist and fell him down on the floor.
“F*ck! My back!!” He groaned, with his eyes tightly closed.
“Who the h*ll are you!?” He shouted and opened his eyes but she was already gone.
“I need to do this and leave” He stood up.
“I’ve been caught..” He muttered, and opened the cabinet.
He sighed in relief seeing his things were still intact.
GILBERTO’S LAIR***
“Hmm” Gilberto hummed.
“Whos that lady?” He took his eyes off the screen and stood up.
“Everyone! Listen up!” He told his men who were now looking at him.
The men were Leo Da Cruz’s mafia soldiers. Gilberto was the captain.
“Malcolm will be going to the fortune tomorrow” He started and there was aloud joyful screams.
“Anyways,,,- Gilberto continued seeing the screams had died down.
“I hope we are all set?” He asked.
“Yes!!!” They chorused.
“I’ve also delivered the news of the betrayal’s comeback to all the mafias in town” One of them said.
“Good… A big fight will occur” Gilberto smirked, dangerously.
