[STORY] AFRICA MY LOVER (Episode 12)

Episode 12.

I was astonished when the guy walked up to the lions and calmed them down, He even player with them and they did nothing to him.

I tried asking him for help but he kept quiet looking at me, I thought he didn’t speak English, so I used Swahili so that he would understand but still, he kept kept, I was getting annoyed and pissed off that I almost shouted at him but then my sixth sense told me that this guy could be my only chance of survival then surprisingly the guy answered me back in English.
.

Tobi ➡ Of course, I speak English… What are you doing up there?
.

Lisa ➡ Isn’t it obvious?!? Your lions were trying to eat me..
.

Tobi ➡ No.. They only eat those that pose a threat to them.. and you don’t look like someone that poses a threat. Why don’t you come down.. It’s alright.. They won’t touch you.
.

Lisa ➡ No way buster! I’m not getting down there while those lions are present.
.

Tobi ➡ Okay suit yourself. I hope your skin is impenetrable to mosquito bites.. Good night
.

Lisa ➡ Wait!? Are you seriously going to leave me here?…
.

Tobi ➡ Well, that’s your choice.. Come down and stay up there and spend the night with mosquitoes.. You choose?
.

Lisa ➡ Seriously!? How can you be so?…. AHHHH!!!
.

In that moment as I was talking to the charming Stranger, a big spider landed on my nose, I was terrified that I lost my grip on the branch, before I knew it, I fell down from the tree and surprisingly landed in the strong arms of this Charming stranger..

I froze as I felt myself on this guy’s arm, He didn’t even show any sign of being bothered by my weight.. It’s not that I’m heavy or fat, it’s just that I’m surprised how he grabbed me instantly.
Shortly after I landed into his arms, He stared into my eyes smiling at me, I was nervous and at the same time turned on by the stiffness of his arm and the strong grip of his hold… I wonder what it would be like to have this guy on my bed?
Suddenly, one of the lions licked my foot making me snap back into reality.. I quickly held the guy and politely asked him to take me away from the lions.. He chuckled and then took me into his house, as soon as we got in, He let go of me and offered me a seat.
He went in and brought two bottles of Coke and then gave me one, He took his seat next to me and began to get acquainted with me.
.

Tobi ➡ First of all… You’re welcome in my house… My name is Tobi Mingati. You?
.

Lisa ➡ Er.. Er.. My name is Lisa..
.

Tobi ➡ Lisa who?
.

Lisa ➡ Lovette.. Lisa Lovette.
.

Tobi ➡ Hmm, what a lovely name… So Lisa.. What brings you here?
.

Lisa ➡ Uh. This is hard to explain but I was kidnapped by some men and I escaped.. I’m a Foreign lecturer in Nairobi university.
.

Tobi ➡ Hmm.. Did you do anything to offend this men?
.

Lisa ➡ No.. I haven’t.. I was just taking pictures one night and then they emerged out of nowhere and take me away… Please do you have a phone? I need to call my father back in England.. I need to let him know the situation, I’m in.
.

Tobi ➡ Sorry. I don’t have airtime for foreign calls… In the meantime, you have to stay hidden… Whoever this men are, they stop until they find you…
.

Lisa ➡ No! I can’t stay… I have to call my father.. He’ll sort everything out.
.

Tobi ➡ You’re so hung up on your father… He can’t help you… He’s thousands of miles away… Do you have anyone here that you know.
.

Lisa ➡ No… Except for my colleagues from the university. If only I could get to them.
.

Tobi ➡ Trust me. They can’t help you either… You need to stay out of sight.. Your life is in peril.
..

Lisa ➡ Look.. I can’t stay in this dump.. I have lots of things to do.. No offense.
.

Tobi ➡ Alright.. But just so you know.. You’re in Kenya and there’s nobody here to protect you.. Whoever that kidnapped you, is out there doing whatever it takes to find you.. There has to be a reason why you’re being kidnapped , your only chance of safety is to stay out of the radar and this is the best place to lay low but if you insist on leaving, Fine.. I won’t stop you but don’t expect to think that you’ll be saved the next time you get caught.
There’s an empty room downstairs for you to spend the night.. There’s a shower and i have some food in the fridge.. Help yourself with it. I’ll be going to be bed.. Good night.

Tobi stood up from the couch stretching himself, after that, I headed straight to his bedroom, Meanwhile, I sat on the couch wondering about what he had said.. It’s true I have nobody here but still I have no idea where I am and finding my way back to the University is going to be hard and if I’m not lucky, those b-stards might spot me and catch me again, Perhaps they might even kill me, after all I killed one of their own.. I think it would be better to stay with Tobi for a while.
Suddenly as I was deep in thought, I heard a knock coming from the door, Tobi came out of his room with his bare chest exposed, I wowed silently as I saw how chiseled his body was.. It was so s-xy.
As soon as he got to the door and opened it, A guy rushed in, bleeding from his ribs and thighs .. He moaned in pain and collapsed on the ground as soon as Tobi let him in.
.

Tobi ➡ Solomon… God! What happened?
..

Solomon ➡ Karanja… he.. betrayed.. us.. It was a setup… Everyone.. is dead. (Faints)
.

Tobi ➡ Solomon.. Solomon.. Wake up.
.

Lisa ➡ He’s passed out from his wounds. We have to stop the bleeding.. He needs medical attention.
.

Tobi ➡ Can you help me do that?.. I need to make a call.
.

#OMNISCIENT_POV

After witnessing the massacre of both the drug mafias and the members of POKAC,.. Jerome drives back home with a smile on his face concluding that his obstacles were finally out of the way.
As soon as he returns home, he notices an ambulance and some of his boys looking disturbed and worried.
Immediately he parks his car, He rushes in and meets Tucker asking him what’s going on.
.

Jerome ➡ Tucker!! What’s going on?
.

Tucker ➡ 🙁🙁🙁🙁
.

Jerome ➡ Answer me!? What’s going on?
.

Tucker keeps quiet still and before he could ask him again, Jerome sees some men bringing out a stretcher with a body on it, the body was placed in a body bag preventing him from seeing who it is.. He rushes close to the stretcher and unzips the body bag, as soon as he sees who’s inside.. Jerome shouts in shock and anger.

Tucker and some of his men quickly grab him as he was trying to beat up the hospital personnel carrying his brother’s body.. He was dragged inside sooner afterwards and was left alone with Tucker.
After consuming a bottle of Manchester wine, Jerome asks Tucker the mystery behind his brother’s death.
.

Jerome ➡ Tell me Tucker!!! Who is the B-STARD that killed my brother!? Who is it?.. WHO?
.

Tucker stares at him and then sighed before giving him an answer.
.

Tucker ➡ It was a white woman that killed Dia.. She wore his jacket as she fled from here.. Tell me.. Who is she? Do you know who she is?
.

Jeromes shouts in anger and throws the bottle of wine in his hand against the wall, smashing the bottle to pieces.. He roams around the room before answering Tucker.. Tucker listens as Jerome tells him everything regarding the white lady and as soon as Jerome is done, Tucker speaks up.
.

Tucker ➡ You kidnapped the daughter of a rich foreign tycoon… What were you thinking?
.

Jerome ➡ It wasn’t my doing.. The boss ordered me to do so and her father’s agreed to pay the ransom.. We have to look for her.
.

Tucker ➡ Okay.. But I have something to tell you… I caught Dia sneaking out of your room moments ago before his death.. He was looking very guilty and suspicious..
.

Jerome ➡ What are you insinuating?
.

Tucker ➡ Is the flash drive in a safe location?
.

Jerome ➡ Are you insisting that Dia went in and stole it? He wouldn’t do that.
.

Tucker ➡ Perhaps… But 300.million dollars is a lot of money.. And you know how money corrupts.
.

As soon as Tucker says that, Jerome in haste rushes back to his room and as he gets there, he begins to look for the Flash drive but he doesn’t see it.. He checks the place he kept it but nothing is there.. In that moment he freezes in dismay and shock not believing what’s happening. Tucker who was standing by the door realizes that is he was right about what he said.. Jerome sits on the bed slowly and shouts again louder than ever, The suddenly jumps up and tries to run of the room but Tucker holds him.
.

Jerome ➡ Let go of me Tucker.. If that flash gets into the wrong hands.. We’re finished. I need to search that b-stards body.
.

Tucker ➡ There’s nothing on him, Jerome.. Except his wallet and phone.. But i think I know where it is.. It’s with Lisa Lovette. the flash must be in Dia’s jacket and she has the jacket.
.

Jerome ➡ No.. No.. No.. No.. NOOOOO!!! we’re finished! God!
.

Tucker ➡ No.. We’re not.. We need to find her fast… We must search high and low for her.. But don’t tell anyone about the drive because once they know the reward behind it.. We’ll never find it.
.

Jerome ➡ This is messed up.. The boss is going to kill me.. I have to call him now.
.

Tucker ➡ You do that.. I’ll go assemble the men.

Tucker leaves Jerome alone and as soon as he’s gone, Jerome brings out his phone and dials his boss’s number, after some seconds, his call is answered.
.

Boss ➡ Hello Jerome.. What is it? I’m in the middle of something important.
.

Jerome ➡ Boss.. We have a huge problem.
