After eight long hours, and with fervent fasting, if I add the last fifteen hours of not eating to it, Officer Arrogant finally calls and comes to rescue, after I have given up.
I throw myself angrily into the car, and glare at him, "So, you finally decided to come and pick me up, right?"
I am cut short by his roaring laughter, "Wait, why do you look like a lady?"
"You know say you dey craze, I no look like woman before, ehn. No be your fault! If you see the kind torture wey that girl put me through, ehn. On top of that, I dey hungry. Na fast I con fast for here! You better branch somewhere and find me food or else, you will carry someone to the hospital o."
(You know that you are mad, don't I look like a woman before? It's not your fault. If you see the kind of torture that lady put me through... And to top it, I'm very hungry. I came here to fast! )
He begins to laugh hard.
"Mickey!" I scream at him.
"No, no, no, no, no! You are not going to call me that."
'Oh-oh! Someone doesn't like that.' I thought, I won't let him live it down.
"Yes, Mickey, I shouldn't call you what?" I tease him.
"Do you intend to starve? If you want, go on with it."
"Oya, sorry. Pele, I did not want to eat blood food ni, that's why I did not eat there."
"The one you stole is now what?"
"See, warn yourself o. What us your problem? Better find food for me before I begin to transfer aggressions joor. He will just be making someone angry, ki lo shele?"
(What is it?)
He pulls up in front of Dominos pizza, "You are paying," I tell him.
"In your dreams. Do fast o, or else I will leave you here."
"You are even stingy on top of it. It's okay o, only God said I should bring my ATM, starvation would have killed me." I begin to ramble before taking my purse and alighting the car.
Detective Mickey follow closely, a smile of amusement on his face. He order our food to-go and pay for it, I finally smile back at him.
We get to the station, only to realise there is an uproar, two people has been killed in the same trade mark way. Both brutal murder happened at Mushin, everyone is on edge.
"This is not Sting's trademark, this is someone else. Besides, those people were part of Sting's boys. We will go out and find evidence against the new serial killer on the run." Detective Aleshinloye had said.
Mickey and I and one other Special agent I just met are now sitting in the break room, our foods sitting in front of us, as I discuss what my day was like and I should do now that I have an access to Sting's house and resources.
"I will start with one simple way, putting bugs in his house, and the we can begin to monitor things like that, then we will graduate to trackers. The only problem is that childish wife of his, I have never seen someone so energetic." I tell them.
"And believe me when I say that apart from his wife being an airhead, this babe is fine. She is the most beautiful creature I've ever sighted. The reason why women doesn't appeal to sting."
"And while you are at that, can you learn his daily schedule and what he loves the most?" Detective Mickey say
I eye him, "So na my head all those work go dey, bah?"
(So all those work will be only my burden)
"You know that I will be doing things on my own side too."
"Just be careful," The other Detective say, "Sting and his Cohort are very vicious, you don't want to get caught, do you?"
"We will be careful. Thanks." I reply
