Angelina

Episode 19

I was so overwhelmed. I know that people had to be overwhelmed about doing good things. But
for me,I was actually overwhelmed for kidnapping Ellen and taking her to hell with me. I was very
study not to pass on the road where the police men stood in the middle of the road,stopping cars
for check up. I drove into the estate in a haste and reached the front of my entrance.

And I saw what I didn’t like. Mr Brandon stood in front of my house with folded arms and as
usual,in suit and tie. I didn’t know what he wanted and I honestly didn’t care. I stepped down of the
car in a mixed feeling because Ellen was also in the car. And the drug I sprayed into the face isn’t
strong enough to hold her down. I walked to Mr Brandon who was already frowning his face at me
and holding some brown envelope which contained some documents. I also folded my arms.

” How may I help you sir? ”. I asked him.
” Good afternoon, any way…am here to give you this ”. He said and handed the documents to me ” What is thus? ”.
” Those are the agreement papers you parents went on and gave it to Gina to take custody of you
when they were no longer alive ”.
I was so shocked. I unwrapped the envelope and read the papers and it was all intact. Wow! Now I
could actually kick my aunt an uncle Tom out of the house like dogs and destroy them on the
streets. That feeling was amazing. I looked back at Mr Brandon.

” Please is that all? ”.
” Listen to me…Gina’s burial will be tomorrow. And I am going to give you that slight opportunity to
attend. Just because, she and your mum were friends and she took you as her own daughter. But
after tomorrow ends,keep in your head,that my family has nothing to do with you. Okay?! ”. He
said,sounding like a warning.

” You don’t have to worry. I want nothing to do with your family either ”. I snapped back.

” Better for you. Now that you have your documents. Everything is over now. So the funeral will
start all exactly 9 am. That’s the time she’ll be buried. Have a nice day ”. He said and walked
away.

I was weakened. Did I just tell him I want nothing to do with his family too? I remembered the
morning kiss. Oh gosh! Was I falling in love? No! Impossible! I refuse this feeling in Queen
Marina’s name!!! I can’t fall in love. If that too happened, then Queen Marina will truly go ahead
and kill Danny like she threatened. And am not willing to loose any more people in my life.

I went back to the car and drove inside. There was this very special room I had prepared in the
mansion for rituals alone. I was going to use Ellen’s blood for the next fill up of the bloody gallon.

But I needed her to get a painful death. I looked around and the streets was empty. I pulled her out
of the car and dragged her on the floor,into the hall.

My mansion was an underground one so I could do what I want. And also,my father’s estate was
long away from this estate. And Ellen would be lost if she ever tried to escape. I had two more
people to kill to fill the gallon. When I am done killing Ellen,it’ll be one more. And I will give Ellen a
painful feeling that will take her to her death. If I have loosed Katherine, then I care less about
anyone else.

I pulled her up the stairs with all my might. And I was sweating real bad. I got to the door and
opened it,then I threw her into it. Queen Marina’s statue had filled the entire room and it was
scary. No one would hear her scream if she even tried. I went to the kitchen and boiled some
water. I took the hot water upstairs into the room and placed it aside Ellen’s right hand. I checked
the clock and it was getting to two hours since she fell unconscious.

I booted her with my leg and she panicked from her sleep. Her hand fell into the hot water an she
screamed out in pain and horror. Oh yeah..that gave me so much pleasure. Sweet pleasures. I
saw the pain in her eyes and I didn’t give a d–n. I pulled a long chair aside me under my
butt0ckz and sat down comfortably.
I saw that she was weak. I quickly tied her up. I tied both her hands behind her and her legs
together.

” Who..who (cries). Oh my God please,let me go! Who are you! ”.
” Hmmmm…Ellen,have I changed so much,you can’t even recognise me? ”. I said laughing.

” Look,is it money you want? My father has many! He will give you what you want! Just let me go
please! ”.

” Oh,I guess I should help you recognise me better ”.

I stood up and took the hot water. It was now warm. I washed away my makeups. And I cleaned
my face with my clothes. Then I untied my ponytail hair. At once,Ellen shouted in disbelieve.

” Oh my God!!! ”. She begun to weep. ” Angelina please. Oh Angelina please,dot hurt me ”.

” Oh cousin! I haven’t even started anything and you are already begging? Awww…you are such a
coward ”. I said playfully.

” I’ll do whatever you want. Please just let me go. I will even beg you. Forgive me please ”.

” Ooooh….but Ellen,the time to beg has not even come yet. Please stop. When it’s time for you to
beg,I won’t be the one to tell you,the begging will flow by itself okay? ”.

” Angelina, doing this will not be necessary. It won’t change the fact that my parents killed your
parents! ”. She said on impulse.
” What?! ”. I was pieced.

I knew uncle Tom and aunt Okereke hated my parents and me. But I never knew they could go
that far. I finally understood. My hatred for them worsened. I knew Ellen didn’t mean to tell me that
truth. She has worsened her own case has well.

I just starred at her for a few seconds and walked out of the room and locked her inside. I went to
the hall and wept. After I was done,I ate something and selected a nice block cloth to attend the
funeral the next day. I went back to the ritual room and sprayed another antidote on Ellen,and it
totally paralysed her system. She went all the way down and collapsed.

I needed her asleep until I came from the funeral tomorrow. I surely know that,by tomorrow, no
matter what happened, I was surely going to get a girl there,who will follow me and be my
sacrifice. That evening, I slept good.

(Next Day=Jordan’s Mansion=Living room).
It looked like someone had died in the family. Tears was filled under every eye. Aunt Okereke had
called the police and they kept questioning the gateman about Ellen. He also kept on pronouncing
innocence and the strange woman who came there yesterday.
Uncle Tom kept on making calls as well but aunt Okereke also wouldn’t let anyone have peace.

Her only daughter was missing after all.
” Madam,do you know anyone by the description of your gateman? ”. One police asked.

” No sir! Ah ah..no one dressed like that in our church oo! ”.

” Then this must be a setup,or a real kidnap. Stop crying madam,we’ll find your daughter ”.

Aunt Okereke pounced on the gateman and slapped him hard.

” You are very useless Musa! Useless! In fact,you are fired! Get out now! How can you leave Ellen
like that?! She’s just 14 you fool! Oh God have mercy on me oo! ”.

” It’s alright now! Stop making noise in the neighbourhood! ”. Uncle Tom said angrily.
” See this useless man too! Danny! Your father and I left Ellen here with you,why did you leave
now?! ”.

” But mum,I thought I told you all that I’ll be going for science class in the afternoon yesterday. So I
asked her whether she’ll be okay,but your insolent daughter even insulted me on top,she told me not to care about her because I loved Angelina more than her ”. Danny said.
” Who is Angelina? ” One police asked.
” She’s… She was our..urrrmmm..she’s a ….she once lived with us. Our maid. She was our
servant sir ”. Aunt Okereke said.

” And,where’s she now? ”. The police asked.

” Well sir..it’s a long story ”. Aunt Okereke said.

” Mafm,it’s better you give us every essential information to help us in our search for your daughter
”. The police said in serious mode. ” So tell us, where’s that girl? ”.

” Thing is,Mr police officer, Angelina was our servant. But we threw her out of the house,because
she got herself pregnant, refusing to tell us who the father of her baby was ”. Uncle Tom said.

” And,where did she go? ”. Police asked.
” We don’t know sir…why? ”.
” I have suspicions that,this girl must be involved….”.

” Hahhaaaaa…oh sir! Come on! Angelina was just a 13 years old girl ”. Aunt Okereke said.

” Oh really? Okay. We shall take our leave now family,whatever happens.. We’ll let you know.

The police said and left. But Danny was so shocked about his parents lies and deceit. He couldn’t
believe he actually came from such family of zombies. He stood on his feet in disappointment.

” Mum..dad,was it really necessary to tell those lies to the police? ”.

” My friend shut up there! Should I have told the truth? ”.

” We’re doing all this things for the future of you and your siblings ”. Uncle Tom said.
” My future? I hope and pray hard that,my future won’t be with you two. I am so ashamed and
disgusted to call you both my parents! ”.
” You are mad! ”. Aunt Okereke said,landing a slap on his face.
” You slapped me? ”.

” If you knew how hot I am right now,you won’t even bring yourself now! ”.
” You slapped me because you know that,what I said was right,and the truth. After all the harsh
treatment you gave Angelina,you stand here today and disgrace her in front of others. I wonder
why God gave me people like you as my parents. But it’ll all be over. I can’t wait to complete
school and leave this place for good! I want noting to do with both of you! ”. He said and left.

I had dressed up elegantly. I walked out of the house and drove away to a nearby theme park
around the estate,where the burial was taking place. I arrived a little late. Mr Brandon was
preaching about life and death. I waked in between the guests who were seated.

Nickel saw me and started looking at me stupidly. I went to an empty seat and sat down. He
preached and preached and preached…and my butt0ckz was already becoming hot. The casket
was in front of us all. And it was opened.
I was feeling so nervous. After the preaching was over,we had to walk around the casket to pay
our last respect. We stood up and walk around it. This went through my heart and deep down my
soul. I wept. I couldn’t control my emotions. But Mr busy body Nickel,came to me to console me.

I saw how Mr Brandon’s face was burning up like hot red pepper. I kept my distance from Nickel.

Some men came to carry the casket away. As we were all following, Nickel pushed me back and
pulled me to a quiet place on the park without anyone seeing us.

” Are you insane already?! ”.
” Yes! I am insane for you baby! ”.
” Don’t call me that! And don’t ever touch me ”.

” But I love you Angelina! ”.
” But I don’t! Let me be! Your father hates me ”.

” And I love you…”.

His speech didn’t end and he locked his lips with mine. He kissed me real good,and gosh…I
melted like butter. Suddenly someone pushed Nickel away from me and slapped him hard. I
opened my eyes and saw that it was Lady Nash.

What the hell is she doing here? I was puzzled. As she slapped him,my eyes didn’t no where Mr
Brandon appeared from,he slapped Lady Nash so hard that,she fell. Lady Nash stood on her
feet,strong and angry…she raided her hand into the air and a stream of fire appeared in her
hands…I shouted in horror, she threw her powers towards Mr Brandon….
