1094 Words
I was still pinned to the wall rethinking my life choices , I could smell his breath ,the mint was familiar , it was from one of the companies I had fought till they hit the ground . The company had long filed for bankruptcy, and their products had been withdrawn from the markets after people realized that their chewing gums contained nicotine . I mean they didn’t quite realize I told them. “The gum you chewing on contains nicotine.” I said. He spit it out and came closer to me lifting my chin with his hand . “Tell me how much money do you get from your platforms , I will give it to you , and you will never talk about the Nyemba’s ever again .” “I work for the regular people , I cannot choose to betray them like that .” I said pushing his hand away . “A million dollars , take it or leave it !” He said . “I will leave it .” I confidently said . “You know what they say, if you leave this building with your head still on , go and use it to prostrate to the lord .” He said as the door opened again . “I will use it for that and to expose you !” I said as I walked towards the entrance. I ran out fearing that the door would shut before I could move out , I peeped inside and he was still standing still . “. Are you not going to stop me ?” I yelled . He stayed silent and still , I felt my ego broken . I picked up my phone from the container and rushed to meet my team . “What are the workers saying ?” They asked . “There are no workers !” I said . “Someone cannot accept defeat , huh .” Ole who was standing me said . “I have not seen any workers in there , there was nothing .” I shouted . “Why don’t your mates come and see for themselves?” Ole Nyemba the billionaire heir said as he led them towards the big door ,he pressed the button and the door opened . “I have been advised that the machines are strong enough to handle the electro magnetic waves , am sorry for earlier .” He said. “You can also record , if you want .” He said while glaring at me . We walked into the ware house and we could see workers operating the machines , I knew something is off . “I demand to know what all this means ?” I locked eyes with Ole as I walked towards him . He locked eyes with me too , fearless , he did not even flinch . “There are the workers you wanted to interview .” He said . “Am going to tell everyone that this is all set up !” “And how will they believe you .” “I am going to collect sufficient evidence and then I will bring this whole company to the ground .” I said in a low tone . “I would love to see you try .” Ole said and smacked his lips . I left the company wondering what had happened, my team had footage of the workers and had interviewed them . The workers had said that they experienced no trouble at work and loved their job , they all looked healthy and happy , but I know they hid something. I reached home and took a shower , all I could hear was my phone buzzing with notifications, I stepped out of the shower and checked it , it was my hundreds of thousands of followers, they wanted updates . Usually I don’t leave the scene without giving them the full story but today I was confused , I also didn’t have the full story ! I could not tell them what I initially saw because I had no evidence to back it up , I sighed and turned off my phone . I went and recorded a video asking my followers to hold on as I collected the evidence i needed to sabottage the Nyemba’s . I posted it on paracam and went to sleep . I had barely slept when my phone i heard more buzzing , it was normal , a post of mine would gain thousands of comments in two minutes , but then I got a phone call . I picked it up . “Why have you betrayed your people like this ?” A voice cried on the other side . I sat up and checked my phone , I was dumbfounded. The official Nyemba paracam account had posted videos and pictures of me claiming that I was their new brand ambassador. I pinched myself to make sure I was not dreaming , then my phone rang again . An unknown number , my hands were shivering then I picked up . “This is Chayna from Nyemba millers , Mr Ole would like to meet you at the offices tomorrow morning so you can finalize the deal .” The voice said . I remained silent . “Mr Ole demands that you attend in person , he will be ready to answer all your questions.” She continued. “I don’t think he will answer all before I pull his jugular out .” I said assertively as I hang up . I grinned and went back to bed . I saw Ole the heir to the Nyemba’s standing at my door , he moved closer and closer towards me , I told him to stop but he wouldn’t listen , he sat on my bed and held my chin . “Take the price or leave it .” He said . “You cannot buy me .” I insisted . “This brand deal is going to change your life !” He said . “And I am going to decline it disrespectfully !” I said . He slowly pushed me down , as he crawled on top of me , I shouted ,and he vanished. I woke up from my sleep . It was just a dream , I sighed .
