ME AND MY DANCE

Chapter 25

Chapter 25:- Why Is He Acting Weird.

"You are sick. You need a doctor." The woman said.

"Come out everyone of you." the woman said.

Soon, ten heavily bodied men came out of hiding, they began to charge towards Damilola.

At that moment a call came through.

Damilola picked up the call.

"I heard you were discharged. I am coming to your house right away. "

In anger Damilola cut the call without replying.

"You know what? You all should go home. I am not in the mood to fight fairly right now."

The woman began laughing. I guess you are scared. "You are such a chicken, still you had the guts to kill my husband. I am going to kill you today."

"Leave right away or I'd call the police." Damilola said. Her eyes and voice void of the murderous look that was present on her face moments ago.

"Police? I guess you would be dead before the police gets here."

Damilola grabbed her phone and called the police.

"There are a lot of people here trying to hurt me, could you please come to my rescue? There are about 10 of them." She said over the phone. Her voice was very cool, unlike the voice of someone being threatened. She gave them the address of where she was, then said again. "Please come over right away or someone would be....... " before she could finish the sentence, a huge guy grabbed the phone from her.

"Now that's enough." His deep voice said.

"What do you think you are doing? Why are you so disrespectful. I was on a call for Christ sake. You prevented me from saying the most important part." she said in anger.

"What, that you will be dead before they come?" he asked.

"Nah. The other way round." she replied.

"Anyways, it's been nice chatting with you. My home is just over there, I will just take my leave now." She said again walking away.

"And where do you think you are going?" the woman said.

"I just told you stupid, I am going home." Damilola replied.

"You are going nowhere."

"Okay, fine. You asked for it. Prepare for the outcome."

"Just come at me at once. I am feeling sleepy already."

They began running towards her. Damilola immediately started running.

She ran straight into her house and said "Good night guys. I really am not in the mood to kill anybody today."

Soon, the police came and arrested them all.

The man in the black Maybach, stayed motionless in the car. She really was a murderer. She really was a murderer. Thinking about it, pierced his heart terribly.

He gathered his thoughts at the back of his head and drove off.

Clara came over later that day. She pressed Damilola's doorbell for a while and after not receiving a reply, went home.

************************************************************************
The next day promptly passed by. Damilola went straight to the dance school.

She had messaged Dave about the dance rehearsals, but received no reply.

So, she went to the dance school, in case he was there.

Dave was right there dancing.

Sometimes she wondered whether he lived there.

"Hey! I messaged you a lot but received no reply. Hope no problem."

Damilola received no reply from him.

His face was cold and without emotions. This reminded her of Richard. Except for the fact that being cold didn't fit Dave.

"Anyways, when is the rehearsal starting?"

"Why don't we start today?"

"Okay? What song?" he finally replied.

"Why don't you choose?"

"If you can't think of something, get out. I am busy."

"Is anything the matter?"

"It ain't any of your business."

Dave said as he walked out of the studio.

Did something happen to him recently?

Days passed and they still hadn't gotten a good duet and it was only few days to the competition.

Damilola kept going over to the studio to see him, but he had stopped coming and was always absent whenever she did.

Soon, she gave up.

She put a call through to Mrs Rogers to inform her of the happenings.

Mrs Rogers told her to come to the studio.

On getting to the studio, Dave was there also.

At the sight of her, he wanted to walk away when Mrs Rogers walked in.

"Today, you guys are going to stay here till you give me a valid duet. No one is allowed to exit this building. Infact, you both will be staying here till the time of the competition." she said in anger.

"It's Friday already and the competition is on Monday and you haven't gotten yourself a duet. Who does that? Even if you are not interested in representing us at the competition, you should have at least tried."

"I am beyond mad at you two right now. Whatever differences you have, I don't care. What I want is a duet unfailingly today." Mrs Rogers said as she barged out of the building.

Soon Damilola and Dave were all alone.

"Dave, if I have done something wrong, I am sorry. Let's put our differences behind us for this duet." Damilola said with a look that showed she was apologetic. This took Dave by surprise. They weren't even friends, it was odd to see her apologize.

"I am sure that's what you wanted me to say, but dream on a**h*l*e, you will never hear that from me." Damilola later said.

Now, that sounded more like her.

"Get up right this instant."

"I hate losing was your words, same here, I hate losing and I swear if you make me lose Dave, I will castrate you."

"Would you just shut up and let's rehearse. Your mouth hasn't stopped moving since we got here."

Soon, they began planning and rehearsing the dance steps for the competition.

Just at that moment,  a call came through. Seeing the caller, Damilola paused for a while, her face changing.

She immediately walked out to receive the call.

"You are out there now and you seem to have forgotten the purpose you were sent out there for right? You better get to work. My eyes are on you. Remember I have eyes everywhere, I don't trust and will never trust you. You either get to work or I'd get you."
