💥💥💥 22 February 2010. The afternoon sun saturated the prison edifice in its golden, cosy light. Specks of dust particles seemed to dance in the shaft of the bright glow, slanting the prison windows. The blotched sun seeped through the canopy of tall trees scattered around the prison wall, creating mysterious and grotesque shadows of the heavily breathing prisoners. A group of wild prisoners encircled Christabel, each deriving fun from her wounded form. &

Ps: Please if you have not read the prologue please do for better understanding. 22 January 2008. Christabel and her sister, Sarah were playing in their small room. It was overhauled into an old dilapidated building. The cool morning breeze tinkled their skin - gracing and relishing their happy moment. Sun's rays flowed steadily into the room, making the standing mirror and the aluminium window glisten. The window shutters had parallel openings trotting across them. Christabel and her sister room was decorated with a faded solvent of blue and yellow paint. Her sister big, yellow teddy bear crouched on the blue bedroom

23 January 2008. The movement of squirrels rustling coconut and palm trees fonds throbbed Christabel's ear. Seated on the small balcony of their house, she could perceive the early morning air tinged with the ripening of mangoes: both fresh and rotten ones. Sheep, goats, and hens loaded the ventilated surrounding with their droppings. Knowing fully well that she would be the one to clean and sweep away the mess she squeezed her face and nudged her nose. From a notable distance, she could hear the bleating of goats, the crowing of mature gallinaceous-cocks, and people squealing greetings across cemented and uncemented compound walls. "Don't rape her! No, don't

25 of January 2008. It was like a hoax when their Mum hurried to the house after Sarah notified her about Christabel's head cut, including what happened in details and she suggested they leave the house for the Johnsons mansion. The shock was raw and sudden. Sarah and Christabel waited, hoping their Mum will burst into throaty and rambunctious laughter and tell them it was a sick joke, a ridiculous gimmick, a lewd farce, but it never came. Not even when they packed a few basic loads needed for the visit. To Christabel and her sister, there was just going on a visit, perhaps a visit to know where their Mum had spent five years working in. "How could we leave the house Dad worked so hard to build, how could you tell the loan shark

26 January 2008. Christabel stared at the skyand saw it pulsating with countless blinking lights. From where she stood she saw the moon spreading its soft lavish beam like a new mat over the city, this immaculate white bar of ancient days clothed in a garment of parables and proverb aglow and twinkling stars blanketed the sky. The moon scaled to the steeps of the sky and towered above the city roofing sheets. Christabel gazed at the beautiful night and wished her life could be as beautiful as the lovely view before her. She wished she could soar like those eagles she always admired. Daniel had bruised her ego when she went for her third interview. Catching sight of Daniel being the C.E.O of the company where she was

26, June 2008. Seconds rolled into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days, days into weeks, and weeks into months. The enmity between the stepsisters grew with each passing second, so was the love between Daniel and Christabel. The bond between them was stronger than a covalent bond, more fierce than thunder and lightning, and, more radiant than ever before. Monica's hatred for Christabel intensified when the latter got a job to work under the development team in the company where she worked. Monica always made sure to tell Christabel how poor of a church mouse she was and for that reason, she must never tell anybody in the company about the stepsister's relationship between them - because she saw

26, June 2008. "Are you still angry with me, come on babe, you know it was a ridiculous joke, you are pretty and you know that even if you are not I will have done the same thing," "En...but you shouldn't have said that to..."Christabel was cut off by Daniel's lips on her. Time stopped in a collision of sense when his lips meet hers. Her whole body tingled, the feel of his frame leaning on hers as his arms wrapped around her nearly felt forbidden.A second of intense gaze, Daniel pulled her In, claiming her mouth, hungry and fierce, giving in to the sweet scent of her hair. Christabel's heart pounded in her chest as her knees got weaker. She could only focus on how soft he felt against her mouth, how addictively he overran all her senses, how the taste of him nearly silenced all thoughts. Heat ro

It has been two weeks since the incident, Christabel was more dedicated to her work while Monica carried on, pretending nothing happened, waiting for the perfect time to revenge. Seeing the ring on Christabel's finger every day was a torture to her. "Monica, Are you sure you are okay?" Grandma asked her worriedly, of course, this is not her first time asking, she had kept asking ever since she noticed her sad mood. She forced out a smile. "Grandma, nothing happened, I am fine," "I noticed you keep staring at Christabel's ring, that has been happening for the past few weeks," Teasingly. "If it is about the ring, that should not be a problem, I am sure a husband will come your way, you are rich, good-looking, and beautiful endowed, what el

Christabel was very happy, her team leader praised her for a job well done, she was so very happy that Sarah and her Mum had to ask about the cause of her happiness, apparently, they are the only one that cares, except the bulging Monica though. Her mum was very happy when she relayed the good news and Sarah behaved like the mad Sarah she was whenever she was happy, today was not an exception, she was very happy and mad! At the other side of the wide kitchen, Monica heard them and hissed. "Your doom is still coming." She whispered before she left for the living room. "How was work today?" Her Dad who was flipping through newspapers asked. Monica was surprised that her father asked her abou

After Christabel left her mother view she went straight to Sarah's room. "Sarah wake up," She said and tapped Sarah but Sarah only yawned and changed her sleeping position. "Sarah!" Christabel called, again, Sarah didn't answer not until Christabel splashed water on her face did she managed to voice 'hmmm' "Abeg stand up!" Christabel yelled. "Why are you calling me and besides what are you doing at home by this time of the day?" Sarah said as she finally sat up. Her eyes were swollen with sleep and Christabel thought it wise to asked her the questions as fast as possible, so that she can drive back to her dreamland. "Did you send any message through mum's phone?"
