"I am terribly missing my mother." I told him. "You should call her. " he said. "Never. " I screamed probably so loud that the lady in front of us had to turn around. "Well you are having issues with your mom not your dad. So you should call her. " Trevor insisted. "You don't understand. " I said to him. "Yes I don't understand why you can't place a simple phone call to your poor mother telling her how you are doing. She must be worrying to death. It's been almost six hours she hasn't heard a word from you. " he said. "I can't call her. They'll find me. I can't take chances. " I told him.
"I understand you are running away from Mr. Moore but perhaps a text message will do. Text your mom informing her that you'll be fine and just need some time to cool off. " he said. "I can't. " was my reply. "So you gonna call her when you get to GreenLand? " he asked. I didn't utter a word. "The people you are going to stay with in Greenland. Aren't they relatives, or maybe
What if Ella gets caught?
"She meant Bella not Ella. " said Trevor to the lady in front of us who was still staring at us. "You know kids.They get confused alot. " he continued. "She must have heard how they were trying to fish out one Ella Moore earlier so she.... You know? " he said trying to convince the lady while swinging his head from side to side the way he does. The lady nodded and turned around. "Hey little one. " he said addressing Jeken. "Aunty ell... I mean Bella's phone is down. The battery went dead. You can't play any game with it right now. " he told the little girl who nodded and left a little bit disappointed. I was beginning to sweat and God knows if Trevor didn't intervene, I don't know how I would have handled the situation. "May God save me from addressing you as Ella. " he whispered into my ears. "I am Bella Brown now. " I whispered back. "I hope I don't forget that. " he whispered to me again. "So you guys are whispering now. " screamed the elderly lady. "Nothin
"Hey Lilly. " he screamed and ran to meet the strange lady. "Is that you? " he asked her holding her wrist and looking at her from head to toe. "What are you doing here? " she asked him. Meanwhile, I was standing by the corner watching Trevor exchange pleasantries with this dark skinned lady called Lilly. "Meet my friend. " he told her while pulling her closer to me. "She is.. " "Bella. " I said quickly before Trevor could forget and say Ella. "Hi. " said the lady while extending her hand to me. I shook her and said "Hello. " ", This is Lilly. " began Trevor. "We were course mates at the University. " he said. I smiled halfway and nodded. "Is she your girlfriend now? " asked Lilly. "No. " I quickly replied. "So what are you guys doing around here? " Lilly further asked. "We are on a luxury bus to GreenLand. It broke down few meters behind so we are here to grab something to eat. " Trevor told Lilly. "What are you doing here? " he asked her. "I live in this com
In as much as I wanted to Kiss him, I knew I had my dignity to protect. This is is a man I met on a luxury bus twelve hours ago. Also, I have been made to understand that he has his way around women therefore I shall not fall for this temptation else I'll be added to his edless list of rakish accomplishments. "Do it. " blurtred Trevor as if he just read my mind. We were still facing each other and I swear I was begining to burn from the inside with this sudden desire. "Do what? " I retorted. "Kiss me. " he said in a slow and erotic tune. "Never. " I replied then chuckled. He laughed and turned his head facing the bus and I did the same. "You are scared aren't you? " he asked. "No not really. " I said. "You are not just attractive enough. " I added. He laughed and said "I know the problem. One. Either you are a terrible kisser or two either you are being conscious. But I'll go for point two. " he said. "Whatever. " I said. "You don't want to kiss a man who had practically kisse
Hey! Look who is hugging me now. " said Trevor. I quickly broke off the embrace . "You know? " he continued. "Early this morning you wouldn't say hi to me now look how far we've gone. " he said and chuckled. "Hey don't feel so special. " I replied. "It doesn't mean that I'll beg you to take me along as you claim. " I added. "Let's get some sleep. It's past 3:am. We need all the sleep we can get. " he said. I nodded. Few minutes later, I heard Trevor saying to me. "You can't sleep can you? " "Uhmm am not feeling sleepy. " I lied. "Of course you are. Your eyes say so. " he retorted. "You are scared. You are scared you might get another nightmare aren't you? " he asked. "Probably. " I replied then coughed. 'Let's do this. I'll tell you about the scariest night of my life and you tell me about yours. " suggested Trevor. "Am not sure if I can do this. " I replied shaking my head in disapproval. "You can. I'll go first and don't you worry. You don't have to tell me about your scarie
"No. " replied Trevor. "What? " I asked in a low tune. "I want to grab you and kiss you so badly but I won't. " he said. I felt disappointed and said turning then turned my head around the other way. "Don't feel disappointed. " he said. I instantly felt stupid. 'How could I have begged a random guy to kiss me. Someone I barely know. ' I thought and cursed myself for being shameless. "Ugrh" I silently groaned in frustration. 'How can I be this stupid and so cheap. ' I thought. 'Damn what came over me? ' "Goodnight. " said Trevor then he fell asleep. I closed my eyes and curled up facing the other way in shame. I was just refused a kiss by a guy. 'Trevor must be thinking I've falling for him now. ' I thought. I closed my eyes in anger and was soon fast asleep. I was then tapped on my knee. "Wake up. Good morning. " Trevor said. I pressed my phone. It was quarter past 7:am. "Breakfast stand. " Trevor said pointing outside the window. The bus wasn't moving. "It's
I am glad everything is sorted and no life is lost except for Charles Wagman who is in the emergency unit. Trevor and I are okay and the fact that he didn't have any scratch makes me marvel. 'What a hell of a journey ' I immediately looked away while Trevor didn't shake. I began taking his hand out of mine so I could sit up properly. "You are awake? " he asked after I finally managed to disintegrate his hand from mine and sat wit my bed against the wall. "Yes am fully awake. " I replied with a half smile. He scratched his head with the edge of his nail and said"Hungry? " I nodded in approval. "Let me see what I can get around. " he said standing up. "They sell things around here? " I asked him. "There might be an eatery close by. I'll check with one of the nurses. " he said then left while I stared at him in admiration with a smile. Shortly after he left, Trevor returned with a plastic full of hamburgers and some fresh milk. "You sure do know how to pick
I looked to the left and saw Domn seating behind in a red limousinedriving away. As God will have it, a taxi immediately dropped some boys who were hurrying into the club. I jumped in right after the alighted and told the taxi driver to follow the lemo that just left taking a route I showed him. I have never been in a car chase before. Now this was no ordinary car chase but a life chase. I had a strong conviction that Domn and his guys got away with Trevor. "Ma'am that lemo seems not to stop any sooner. I might pull somewhere. I don't want to get into any trouble. " The taxi driver: a young man in his early twenties said to me. ""I'll pay you five thousand naira. " I declared even though I had no dime on. "Okay can you please tell me why we are trailing the lemo? " he asked. I was tensed and sweating all over yet this annoying driver won't shut up. "I just hope Trevor is okay. " I mumbled as Domn's limousine went further into the dark then stop
"So tell me. " began Domn. "This sudden fire... Girl I never saw it coming. " he declared lifting his right hand up. "You'll never see anything coming. " I told him. "I will change your life miss.. " he said. "Bella. " I quickly replied. He nodded. "I will take you to the ends of the earth, I'll crown you my queen and give you a life you never imagined. " he professed choking me as I inhale the disgusting stench emanating from his mouth. I quickly grabbed his hand from and neck and slightly pat it as he smiled. "Old fool. " I muttered. "Aren't you bothered? " I asked him while still patting his hands. It was probably 1:am and he had discharged his guards. "Maybe bothered about who I am, where I came from? or... " I was saying. "Oh come on. " he interrupted. "I don't care about any woman that comes my way. " he said. "Your family, your orientation not my business. As long as I like you and you satisfy below my abdomen. " he said smiling as disgustingly as ever. I nodded smiling
