Accepting himself for the monster or angel he had become was the best choice for him and he wasted no time in moving forward with the taunting moment. Still on his bed a special feeling had invaded his heart and it wasn't the thought of Kaltumi that came with such a thrill. It was the thought of Ramlah. He wondered how she was and how Mahir her foster son. He wondered if she was still angry with him for turning down her feelings for him. He had not yet forgiven his self for making Ramlah cry. She was too sweet hearted and innocent for him to have hurt her so much. His heart was somewhat magneted to Kaltumi as if though it ticked only for her . But the feeling for Ramlah was fast growing in a hallow avenue in his heart and all that needed to be do was to harness it. There was something about Ramlah that kept on ringing in Siins Mind. He couldn't fathom wether it was her beautiful smile or the promise of peacefulness that came along with the thought of her. He was still thinking of her smile when he fell into a deep slumber only to be awakened by the ringing of the telephone. " Oh Goodness . Who dares to interrupt my slumber ." Said Siin in a stressed out voice. He lept out of bed and headed straight to the phone. " Hello Who Is on the line please.," Said Siin without bothering to check who it was that appeared on the screen. " It's papa Jalo sir . Or you can call me the new chairman elect of Lukaku Local government area of Zaire. Congratulations to you sir." Said the voice from the phone. " Yes ! That's great job my man. Has the victory been officially declared.?" Siin asked as he yawned in an air of ease. " Yes sir. I have been returned as winner of the election. It was a landslide victory. Even my opponent has called to congratulate me. " Said Papa Jalo amidst his excitement. " That's great. Congratulations. This is is just an inception of my plans. Stay loyal to me and your dreams would come true. Your other choice however is to disobey me. None of your dreams would come through and I will kill you. Is that clear.?" Said Siin. " Yes sir . Very clear. I promise to be loyal to you." Said Papa Jalo. " Go and enjoy your self at the bar with your boys tell . The bar man to forward the bill to me as usual." Said Siin with a smile on his face and hung the telephone. Things were now in motion. " Oh mine . This looks almost too easy. I should have staged him for the governorship elections. " Said Siin in a monologue. In all, he was filled with joy for the accomplishment and  It was time to take his plan to the next level. Knowing fully well that governorship was off the table but it will be profitable to elevate the position of papa jallo among his fellow chairmen by making him the chairman of chairmen. He quickly reached for the telephone and dialed papas cellular. " Hello Papa Jalo. Can you hear me." Said Siin after confirming that Papa bag picked the call. " Yes sir I can hear you. " Said Papa Jalo with with an even more elated tone. Siin coud tell that the euphoria of victory and the thrill of alcohol was very much at work. " It seems you have and the boys have commenced celebration. Don't drink too much.it doesn't say well about your personality." Said Siin in challant manner. " Yes sir we are out here in the bar drinking and making Merryment. This is my first bottle and I promise it's also going to be the last." Said Papa Jalo. "Please let it be as you have said. The background is rather noisy. Excuse your self let's have a word in private." Said Siin . " Okay sir. Should I rush down to the Fula Safari?." asked papa Jalo in loyal tone. " Not really.just walk to somewhere quiet." Where there isn't so much noise and where no one can hear you speak. " Okay sir . Hold on I'm running out to the gate and heading outside. It's much quieter there." Said Papa Jalo. From the change in breathing and background ambience. Siin could really confirm that Papa Jalo was not bluffing, he was really running towards the gate. " Stop running Please. Just walk there . Don't attract unnecessary attention to yourself." Said Siin. " Okay Sir. I am almost there." Said Papa jallo as Siin could now hear the relaxed tone in his voice. " Good." Said Siin in an air of majesty and paused for a while in wait of Jalo. " Hello Sir. Can you hear me. I'm outside now its more quiet and very much discreet." Said Papa Jalo in a more sober tone. " Yes I can feel it." Said Siin and took a sigh before he continued to speak. " Have other wards declared there winners as well." Siin asked in steady tone. " Yes about seven wards have also returned the winners of their polls. The rest are ongoing." Said Papa Jalo in air of loyalty. " Good. You would call them all immediately and congratulate them. Make a good rapport with them and make sure you sell your hands of friendship to them in a cordial manner. " Said Siin in humble yet explicit tone. " Yes sir. I will do just that." Said Papa Jalo with an air of gusto. " I want to elevate your status among other chairmen. The only I can achieve that,is to make sure that you emerge victorious as the head of the chairmen. It would single you out and give you more power. You and the governor would work hand in hand. and my plans can easily be achieved." Said Siin with an air of confidence.
