“You’re here,,, my lawyer” She smiled.
Ken smi-rked.
“I’m here to save you and take you out of this mess. When all this is over, You and Malcolm have a lot to talk about and settle”
Cindy gr-unted, lowly.
“I’m not sure its me. As far as I can remeenber,,, It’s not me! I didn’t do it, I swear!! I never bought fhat…that thing to work” Cindy shook her head.
Ken sighed.
“You sure?”
“I’ve never been so sure, like this,, ever,,, in my life”
“Long story short,,, Someone planned this and did all this to you,,, intentionally”
“Who??” She wide-ned her eyes.
“How…would I know?? I should be the one asking you that. Who did this to you? Who could have done this to you? Wjp hates you to this extent??”
Cindy blinked and looked down, ru-b-bing her arm. written by sommy pearl f.
“I…don’t know. I…just…I’m confused. I’ve someone in mind,,, though its unnecessary for her to go extra miles. What did I ever do to her?? Well,,, that if she is even guilty” She said, with an eye roll.
“Who is your suspect?”
“Its just a suspect,,, okay??”
“Heard. So,,, who’s the suspect??” Ken asked, again.
Cindy sighed, de-eply.
“Gina. Gina Woods”
“Who’s she?”
“She’s some doctor at R-breeds. We’ve been at each other ne-cks for months now. She just hates the sight of me. Her dad owns the hospital and her mother owns that lab which we attacked then” She explained.
“Oh…” Ken muttered.
“Gina can’t be the one, though. She’s a novice in all this. How would she apply my finger prints all over the stuff? I know Gina. She’s stupid”
Ken ru-bbed his jaw.
“I think she’s working with someone. Someone smart”
“Who?” Cindy asked.
“Are you asking me all these now? I don’t even know this so called Gina so how would I know who she is working with?” Ken frowned, already tired of Cindy’s obnoxious questions.
“Sorry” She muttered.
Ken sighed.
“Do you know anyone close to Gina?”
Cindy laughed, shortly.
“Close to Gina? Who would be close to such a rude brute??”
“Try and think, Cindy”
“She got no friends. Nobody wants to even be close to her” Cindy rolled her eyes.
“Look at who, I’m trying to help here” He scoffed, angrily.
“Okay. Sorry, let me think. Okayyyy!!! I just remembered! There’s this girl who comes over to the hospital. They eat at times, and discuss. They laugh out like stupid hyenas and talk about irrelevant things”
“Like how you are also talking about these irrelevant things?” Ken raised a brow, slightly.
Cindy faked a cough and looked down. written by sommy pearl f.
“What’s Gina’s friend name?”
“I don’t know and I never asked”
Ken bit his lower li-p in thoughts.
“What about Gina? Is she on any social media app?”
“Yeah. Instagram” She nodded.
“What’s her handle?” He asked, bringing his face closer.
Cindy arched her brows.
“As far as I can remember, I think its GinaW”
Ken only smiled.
“Okay,,, I gotta go”
“Huh??”
Before she could say something else, He left.
“What’s with him?” She frowned.
She was about to stand when she heard the door squeaking open.
Oliver walked in.
“Cindy” He whispered, coming closer.
Cindy blinked her eyes.
“What are you doing here??”
“I came to see you” He answered.
“I don’t want to see you,,, so just go” She whispered, looking far from his eyes.
“Why not?” He whispered, and glanced at the handcuffs on her wrists.
She swallowed softly, looked at the handcuffs, and finally looked into his eyes.
“Cause I don’t want you to see me this way…”
“Wait,,,,
Before, he could complete his words, The warden had led her out.
“Sorry” She muttered.
Ken sighed.
“Do you know anyone close to Gina?”
Cindy laughed, shortly.
“Close to Gina? Who would be close to such a rude brute??”
“Try and think, Cindy”
“She got no friends. Nobody wants to even be close to her” Cindy rolled her eyes.
“Look at who, I’m trying to help here” He scoffed, angrily.
“Okay. Sorry, let me think. Okayyyy!!! I just remembered! There’s this girl who comes over to the hospital. They eat at times, and discuss. They laugh out like stupid hyenas and talk about irrelevant things”

“Wait,,,,
Before, he could complete his words, The warden had led her out.
Oliver sighed, heavily and walked out. He was surprised when he saw Kev coming closer.
“What are you doing here?” Oliver asked.
“And what kind of questions is that??” Kev questioned.
“Forget about it. She won’t see you” Oliver adviced.
Kev made no utterances, and simply walked out, of Oliver.

“You’ve another visitor and this is your last one today” The prison warden informed, opening the gate.
“Wait…” Cindy whispered.
The prison warden looked at her.
“Did the visitor give you a name?” She asked.
“He looks like the 1st visitor but I can see its not him. He’s a twin, right?”
Cindy nodded.
“That should be Kev…Please, tell him to leave. I don’t wanna see him”
The prison warden nodded, and locked the door before walking away.
Cindy sighed and sat down. Her cellmates were asleep already.
****
“She said,,, she doesn’t wanna see you” The prison warden ssaid
Kev inhaled and walked out.
“I told you, right” Oliver muttered, when he saw him coming.
Kev just walked away, entered his car and zoomed off after glancing at her beautiful picture.
***
? Is it true that one of your doctors is a ha-rd drug addict??
? Did you ever know about this??
? Why did you decide to employ her at the first place??
? What are you going to do to her now??
? What’s your view concerning this case??
The reporters around Mr Woods, didn’t stop following him, and kept asking him questions.
He finally stopped, and with very curved brows, He replied;
“I’ve stri-pped her of her doctor ship and announced her department. She has also been blacklisted and therefore, no hospital or health care center will be willing to hire her”
He continued.
“I’ll make sure the law prevails in this and surely she’ll de-eply regret her actions while serving her jail term but as for now, I’m sorry for not looking further into Cindy Keepers and giving her a Doctor title” He said, with a very low bow.
The reporters took lots of photos and videos, instantly.
***
Mr Woods cleared his throat and walked into the hospital.
The staffs would stop now and then, and greet him, while giving him a quick bow.
Gina ran to him.
“I saw what happened outside” She chuckled.
He said nothing, and continued walking.
“I told you I didn’t like her and asked you to fire her but you were adamant and non chalant. I warned you” She laughed, and walked away.
MK’s MANSION***
“Why are you smiling?” Malcolm glanced at Ariana, and continued what he was doing, chopping the cabbage.
Ariana only smiled wider.
“I’m glad we are now fine. I’m glad we settled our differences and I’m happy you are preparing a delicacy”
He chuckled, loud.
Ariana looked down, at the table and continued smiling.
“You still smiling?” He asked.
She carried her gaze to him.
“I can’t help but smile, whenever I remember it”
“Remember what?” He asked.
“Huh! nothing” She shook her head.
Malcolm looked around nervously before settling his eyes on her
“You mean,,, the ki-ss?” He asked, slowly.
She blinked, and felt her che-st already thumping. She was feeling shy and anxious already.
“You remember it now?” She asked.
Malcolm swallowed.
“Isn’t that what you were thinking about?”
“Not really” She replied, shaking her head.
“Fu-ck” He whispered to himself.
“So,,, what were you thinking about?”
She chuckled and shook her head.
“Nothing” She lied.
Malcolm chuckled and went off to the cooker to simmer the fish.
Ariana glanced at him and smiled. She was thinking about yesterday.
The way she held his wai-st close while he rode the motorcycle so that they would get to Kev, amidst the heavy traffic, made her fall more, in love with him.
“I like you, Mister” She whispered to herself, staring at her palms.
KEN’S ROOM***
Ken switched on his phone and quickly logged into his Instagram account.
He searched for Gina’s handle and got it. He scrolled throu-ghher pictures.
“She seems to be a picture freak. I could get her friend here” He thought.
He saw 2 photos, where Gina and her friend took, together.
The text un-derneath said; I and my best friend, un-der the fine sunlight.
“Got ya” He smi-rked, and tapped the photos. He saw Gina tagged her friend, since the name came out.
He tapped the name which directed him to Mimi’s profile.
“Mimi?” He whispered, and started checking her pictures. He also saw several pictures she took with Gina at different locations and he concluded, they were best of friends.
He clic-ked her recent picture, which was posted 2 days ago.
She took a selfie, wearing a bright smile, and made a V sign, with her fingers, which stood across her cheek.
Ken looked at the text below which said; Finally got the job!! I’m so happy guys!!
Ken went to the comments, and saw Gina commented first. written by sommy pearl f.
Her comment was;
I’m so happy for you, best friend,,, The hotel, right?
*Yeah, Girl* was Mimi’s reply.
“Hotel?” Ken whispered, and went back to the picture.
He noticed a neon sign board behind Mimi. He zoomed it, there and saw the writing on it which was ‘HIGHER 5 HOTEL’
Ken’s li-ps curved into a smile. He opened his laptop which was just in front of him and searched for the hotel in his GPRS.
Seconds later, the location result came out.
“Nice…” He whispered, stood up and wore his jacket.
He ran into the sitting room and Kev saw him.
“Where are you off to?” Kev asked, and glanced at the wall clock. It was 10pm already.
“I’m trying to help my client here” Ken winked.
Kev smiled.
“Help her well, dear lawyer!”
Ken chuckled and ran out.
“Fighting!!!” Kev giggled and later, sighed, heavily.
