Jackson Khumalo ordered Terry Peterson to find him a place to lay low. Daniel and Siya decided to get rid of Elaine.

At West Hill..

"I'm well aware of the risks Percy but a week is too much, I'm doing it tomorrow and that's final!" Jackson Khumalo looked away
"Okay I hear you boss, have it your way then, I'll set it up and let the team know" Percy said and started walking
"Hey wait up, borrow me your cellphone" Khumalo demanded and Percy gave it up
"Terry, tell me you got a place" Khumalo said as soon as the call was picked up on the other end
"Affirmative, I got it in the Indian community just a few miles out of town" Terry Peterson came through
"Good work buddy, everything is in place then, see you tomorrow" Khumalo grinned

Darren's day was getting better and better as the judge ruled against the defendant and handed him his first major win.
With the Khambule's case on track and one of his other cases already in the bag, he was pleased with himself.

IF YOU COULD SEE ME NOW TRISH! Darren thought
The last few months she had made him feel inadequate,she made him look at Daniel as his rival instead of his boss and friend. But now that perception had changed, Daniel had trusted him with a big case and he was about to pay him back with a win.

"Good afternoon ladies" Darren smiled cheerfully as he got in the boardroom
"Afternoon handsome" Siya replied
"Oh gross! how you guys doing today?" Darren sat down
"We good Oupa, how'd the case go?" Daniel asked
"Sweetly, I'd say two more days and Themba Khambule gets his settlement" Darren replied with a clean grin
"Good work Hendricks, knew I could count on you" Daniel gave him a salute
"I should be thanking you chief for believing in me, it really means a lot to me" Darren said soberly and before he could get his answer Daniel's cellphone vibrated
"Meet me tonight at Jingles, 7:30 sharp, don't be late!" the text read
And suddenly Daniel's face was all sweaty.
"Danny what's going on? are your ok?"Darren asked
"Yeah I'm fine, I just noticed that I'm a bit behind on car payments" Daniel said and Siya eyed him
"Yeah? well I gotta go then, guys why don't we hook up later on, I'm buying" Darren got up
"I'll pass" Siya replied flatly, all his attention was on Daniel
"Danny?" Darren inquired
"What?" Daniel came through
"Really? You sure you're okay?" Darren asked
"I am Darren, nothing you should worry about dude"Daniel came correct
"Alright if you say so then, cheers" Darren went out

"It's Elaine right?" Siya asked
"Yup! bitch got me where it hurts" Daniel replied
"What does she want?" Siya asked
"To meet me later on" Daniel replied
"I'm coming with you" Siya said
