Nissan

Ill-Fate

They hadn’t eaten for days now and Hilda was already complaining. The baby’s milk was already running low. But she could continual breastfeed as a substitute for the mean time.

She was thinking of finding a little house to pay for. And to settle down with her two kids. Her life savings were really playing out well now.

————————————————

He woke up and saw himself being tied to two poles. He still felt a sharp pain at the back of his head. He regained consciousness and then. . .

Three hefty men stood in front of him.

“Who are you?” Asked one of them.

Pierre was speechless. He tried to talk but didn’t even know what to say. How would he describe himself to them. He had just arrived two ago, seeing no one. He was also thirsty.

“I’m Pierre, please can I get a drink? I’m thirsty”

But they mistook his name for a regular fruit being eaten by all.

“No we won’t give you water Mr. PEAR, you must disclose your mission or else…”

The man went it and brought the corpse of the man whom he’d see hanging earlier on the ceiling

“You end up like this”

——————————————————

She decided to sit under a tree with her kids. She couldn’t see clearly, it was sunny, but the signboard showed that there where in place Starr.

“Hand me the bag” she beckoned on Hilda. She tried brining out the bundle of money which she had saved for her entire live. But then.. it was gone. She became alarmed, she screamed, the baby awoke and yelled, Hilda became so scared, she took the bag from momma to really understand what had happened. There was a hole underneath the bag. The cash must have fallen of through it. She wept. Why was everything just being so wicked to her and momma. She looked at Nissan, he was seriously crying, though he didn’t even know what happened. He was being carried at the back by momma. She would make mum happy once again in life. But then they were to suffer from then on. For the mean time.

—————————————————

They would never believe that he could lay hands in his family member though he looked so innocent. But then Pierre knew that they meant business. They we’re getting tired of listening to his long and boring story.

“ and so I told Ben to buy me one more bottle of gin but he stood up and laughed at me, so……”

“Cut it!!!” The tallest man shouted. He corked his gun and pointed it straight at him.

“Why are you here?”

He became scared. He had to open up now he had to convince them that he meant no harm, that he was just there to take cover for the main time.

“The police are after me because of martins whom I told you of earlier.”

There was silence everywhere.

The two other men waited for their leader to reply.

He would either say two things in this kind of situation.

“Then you’re of no good to us Brody”

This meant death as the next action on the individual.

Or he would say

“You’re doing well Brody”

Pierre was starting to panic.

“Then you’re of no good to us”

Said the tallest man.

——————————————————

Though she was emotional, she was also courageous. It wasn’t easy for someone like her to lose two important assets now and still try to put herself together.

Martins was gone, her live savings too.

She couldn’t bear seeing her baby boy suffer. Due to her inability to provide his basic needs sooner, because she had no cash again. She resorted to one last idea that came through her mind. It would be so painful to part with him, But she just had to take the risk. Hopefully she’ll see him one day. Hilda would miss him more, she would cry almost everyday, oh, she just had to do this to save them all.

She was stranded under the tree. No where to go again, no money to buy a house. Would she be a wanderer? Would she be homeless? Her hometown wasn’t the best place to stay in, her husband’s house was already counted off from the start.

She would work as a cleaner and see if she could raise something.

They spent the night at the same spot.

———————————————————

Just before the tallest man shot the gun at Pierre…

“But I can help you guys!” He shouted.

“How important are you to us Brody”

The tallest man asked.

“ I have one more person in my list before I can finally relax happily and leave this world.”

The tallest man brought down his gun. If this man could help secure a sure victim for them, they could go on with the ritual rites and make more money soonest.

But they had to be extremely careful this time because not quite long they’d escaped from prison after an unsuccessful attempt to abduct a little girl which happened to be Hilda.

“And who can that be Brody?”

It’s my other son.
