Obsession... Heart desire

#20

          

Rotimi had woken up from her afternoon siesta, looked at her phone and it wasn’t late, she swung herself to the table where her laptop was.

“Let’s see who I can study on this night”

She powers her system and logs in, but decides to change her mind to call Sam.

Dials his number.

“Hello, this is Inspector Sam on the line, what’s your emergency?”

Smirks.

“The pride level only increased”

“Hello………”

“I’m not deaf, Sam! it’s amazing how you could stab a friend and still live”

“Rotimi?”

“Are you asking a question or you’re calling my name!”

“Rotimi! I’m so glad you called,”

“Did I win a lottery in your academy? Or did my name bring you enough batches and titles?”

Rotimi said with a very cold voice.

Exhales.

“You don’t have to be this way Rotimi, you could still have a normal life”

“Really? Do you now want to give me a hinge on  how to live a hopeful life? Really? Seyi really did make me see some good in you, you know”

“Timi….. Come off this attitude please, remember how you just wanted that little girl to come back to life and you told her so many……”

“Cut it, cut it out, cut this play okay… in fact you know the reality of pain? no you don’t it’s all from one crown glory to another, praises here and there.. And the last time you didn’t get the praises you needed, Oluwaseyi told me how both your actions and countenance became sour, so you don’t stand a chance to tell me what and not what to do”

Sam was left speechless.

“Exactly as I thought, I just came to inform you to stay out of my way Sam! I’m sure Oluwaseyis soul should have rendered interesting curses by now”

She said as she ended the call.

Sam  was left in a confused state to the extent that deep down, he would really love to help Rotimi avenge the death of Oluwaseyi, but not on the reason of Chief Oluwaseun being the suspected culprit will turn against him and of course his reputation on a fact less and non-evidential case or report.

But then what if Rotimi was right about the fact that all Sam cared about was his badges, rank, fame and reputation. He could not even take a risk for a friend. That was what hurt Rotimi the most.

Sam could only heave a sigh as there was nothing he could do about it.

 

Drives her bike with full speed to the location she was given so she'll be able to meet up with time.

Finally reaches the place she was to meet with Mitchell.

"You're late"

"Seriously? a minute late and that minute met me here"

Removes her helmet and walks forward to meet Mitchell.

The place was quite a site, filled with obstacles of course and deadly one.

"Rule number one, never be in a hurry"

"And you still should not get caught? I thought you're supposed to work with time? "
