Anita Julius the Chief called her. What happened to your sister? The prosecutor asked in a calm but authoritative voice. I don't know and I'm not my sister's keeper, she answered non - chalantly. And Bliss? I don't know, maybe she met her fate, she blabbered. You better give me answers, the prosecutor said authoritatively, trying to hide the anger and irritation in his voice.
Anita, the prosecutor called out, if you still has some humanity left in you , please answer the questions sincerely for Christ sake. The prosecutor said in frustration. He's pissed off with Amanda 's attitude but manage to coordinate his voice. What of your parents were you planning anything against them , the prosecutor asked in irritation. Not any I can remember, Anita answered a bit irritated by the prosecutor series of questions. Immediately, the door fling open and a woman excuted by a man came in. The woman showed her ID. We're from the police special department, we would take it up from here. The Sec. Prosecutor said while shoving her ID back into her front pocket.
She took a seat opposite Anita's. Anita Julius, I don't have all day nor the time to waste and moreover I'm easily pissed off, so don't taste my patience, the Sec. Prosecutor warned Anita sternly . She tilted her head towards the prosecutor beside her , prepare the torture equipments, my patience is very little this morning, she said authoritatively. Few minutes later, the torture equipments were brought in. Anita saw it, immediately and started figeting, her face clearly showed fear. She love her skin alot and always takes care of it. She treats her skin like a tender child. Because of this, she instantly decided to say the truth. She prefers saying the truth than allow this God-forsaken equipments to touch or damage her skin.
I will ask you this once and if you love yourself please answer me truthfully because we evidence that you entered your step sister's house twice that fateful day. One around 1pm in the afternoon hours and the other was around midnight. The Sec. Prosecutor said in anger. Amanda is truly a psychic. How can she have CCTV installed everywhere in her house. How would l deny this ? Everything is now messed up because of that foolish girl, Anita said to herself. When l asked you a question you answer immediately to avoid being sorry, The Sec. Prosecutor barked in annoyance.
Hmmmm, Anita exhaled deeply as she spoke up. I'm guilty of all the charges and more, Anita's voice was low and shaking in fear. We were once a happy and beautiful family. I was loved by my adopted parents. They loved me and gave me everything that l needed and more. Cyndy our friend, l knew she has something against my step sister but l didn't care much. Until one day, she told me that something about me that my family was hiding from me, she wanted to say it and Amanda interrupted the conversation. I couldn't sleep a wink that night, thinking about what secret my family is hiding from me. The next day, l went to Cyndy's house. She was home that day but her parents was not around. I thanked my stars because l don't need any unnecessary interruption.
When I came in, she was relaxing in their sitting room on one of the sofa. I sat down beside her. Cyndy please if you love me, tell me everything you know about me that my family is keeping from me. I said in a low but shaking tune. I promise l won't be mad at anyone. Please tell me, l pleaded honestly. Cyndy smiled. Amanda is aware of it, infact she confided in me three weeks ago when she found out. She said she don't know how to tell you but she can tell because she trust me enough and we have been childhood friends. Cyndy mumbled while observing Anita's actions. Please tell now, l can't wait anymore to hear this secret. What is it? You can trust me even though my sister didn't trust, Anita said impatiently.
Are you sure that you can take what I'm about to say? Cyndy asked mockingly. You won't say l didn't warn you, she said with a devilish smirk. Go on l can take it, Anita said boldly. Your step sister told me that you were adopted at the age of three when they couldn't have a child. Cyndy blunted out. She said, she found out when your adopted dad told her to get a particular file from her drawer, Cyndy continued with no emotions. As Anita heard this she started crying without knowing. I'm not Julius. I'm a nobody, Anita said absentmindedly. Yes my dear, you're a nobody and the real Julius is Amanda. And she's the rightful owner of the Julius properties, Cyndy said convincing and in a mockingly. You better act fast before she takes what's rightful to you. You wouldn't say l didn't warn you. Cyndy said annoyingly.
