    Isabel had roamed round the street aimlessly for about an hour, whistling like a boy, kicking bottles on the ground and walking so slow with her head directly facing the ground. She was weak and down casted.

Who wouldn't be? She was just thirteen for Christ sake. She had gone through a lot already. She was beautiful but the sorrow had made the worst of her.
      She looked so pale and weak.
As soon as she looked up, she saw a tiny light afar and sooner the light got closer and advanced.
She wore a smile with a thought the owners of car would lend her a phone to call her mom, then her problems would be solved. She would eat and sleep. She was still gesticulating when she notice it was Papa's expensive black Honda accord car. She became happier, excited that he could take her to his house.

Little did she know...... Papa wasn't the occupant of the car.
........................★...............★...
     In Isabel's uncle's house ,there was a party in the afternoon.
Isabel wasn't there but she saw pictures from the party.
Francis bought a new black Honda accord car for papa as his gift.

Francis' son(Frank) gave papa a popsicle and said:
"Papa, this popsicle would make you grow hair like me. Rub it on your shiny head". Kids say the funniest things.

As soon as Frank got to school, he started jumped and flying around literally, telling everyone about the car. He was just five, he had no idea the dangers coming from that.
The ice cream man called him immediately and the following conversation took place:
Ice cream man: Young boy, how are you?.
Frank: Very fine.
Ice cream man:what is your papa's name?.
Frank: I don't know
Ice cream: what is your father's name?.
Frank: I don't know
Ice cream man: *frustrated* Do you even know anything. What is your name?.
Frank: Fwank Popsicle.
Ice cream man: What? You know what, just go.
Frank: You sure are a frustrating and wicked ice cream man.
Ice cream man: *huffs* I remember why I don't want kids now *leaves*

" I'll have to find answers myself, I think he is in kindergarten."he said to himself.
He had to look for answers so he could tell his who were "gentlemen of the night".
    Silently, he burglared the window and crept in. He breathed a sigh of relief. The coast was clear.
He slipped into the classroom and took Frank's file.
"His name is Frank Inagwu. How the hell does that sound like 'fwank popsicle'. I hate kids"he said
" His grandfather's name is Jones John Inagwu....Nice information "he continued.
       The Ice cream man search for the name on a search engine.
The Ice cream man saw a picture of papa with a caption that says
" Always at Daniel gym💪💪"
This shows papa goes to the gym everyday.
He gave this information to a group of robbers. The robber went to Daniel gym to wait for papa. They followed him back home in order to know the way to his house.
     At night,they struck wearing a black outfit. The heartless marauders entered with bullets pouring like rain. The old people did not want to lose their lives. The thieves took all the valuables.
They were returning to their hideout when Isabel saw the car.
.............★...................★..........
"Do you see what I see right now" Fox, one of the robbers said.
"Ya mean the girl down there" Ultimate, another of the robbers replied.
"I don't see no girl"Missman, the last robber said.".... Oh, I see her now"Missman continued.
" We can kidnap her"one said
"We can sell her as ritual" another said.
"Nice plan.... We gon' gain 3.5 million. She ain' goin' nowhere" ultimate said.

      When they got to where she was, they pulled her in and made her unconscious.
They drove away and went to their hideout. In the chill and breezy night under the shelter of an uncompleted building. Thunder and lightning roaring liked a lion.
The whole world was in the blanket of warmth but there Isabel was in the midst of unknown people.

2019 isn't her year...........
