Two days later Salim was up in his newly gotten apartment that dim urged him to buy, it was a bungalow in a secluded quiet area, it was past noon and he has just finished working out and was about to go out to look for some lunch, when his Buzzer went off, indicating there is someone by the door, but before he could go towards the door to open, it was forced open and came off its hinges, he moved away to avoid being hit by the door, he was shocked to see Black in a black overall and a hooded jacket

"you could have wait for me to get it" he said and before he could close his mouth, she gave Him a blow on the cheek and the impact sent him flying to the couch in the process knocking the couch down,
"how dare you" she yelled and gave him a kick in the stomach before he could stand up, she was about to stamp on his stomach when he dodge and in the process came up to dodge a punch to his face,

"what is wrong with you" he asked as he begun to dodge kicks and blows from her, but she didn't answer him, in fact as they continued it came to a point that's he grabbed a long lamp stick, broke the lamp of it and before he could register she cut him on the cheek with the sharp edge, and that got to him, he grabbed her hand, forcefully pulled her closer and made a fist with his hand and was about to hit her face, but stopped mid way, he stared into her eyes, in her eyes he could see, pain, sadness, anger and tears that welled up in a matter of seconds, he could never hurt the woman he had ever love

But before he could Register anything she seemed to be in more anger as her knuckles connected with his face, splitting the skin over his cheekbone with the force of the blow. He screamed and dropped to his knees-not incapacitated, but going for a kick towards her stomach but she lashed out with her heel, launching him backward across the room.

He staggered away, fighting to get his air back. For a moment, he looked like he would puke but he managed to straighten up, but as Black came charging he dodge pared her punch and forcefully pulled her towards him for her face to meet with his fist but stopped when his fist was just and inch to her face, he looked at and sighed

"Am sorry" he quietly said as he dropped his hand and let her hand go, "am sorry" he said and placed his palm on the cut on his bleeding cheek

"Sorry for what Sultan" she coldly asked, he was shocked to hear her call him

"how" he turned to her asking, and she punched him hard on the lips giving it a cut, and she squat as she gave a yell filled with pains and agony,

Salim was helpless "how dare you" she yelled
"I can explain" he said trying to help her up, but she punched him hard in the stomach, "please" he exclaimed in pains
"You know the moment you were given that assignment, I was told, but I didn't know the face behind Salim Hamdan" she said
"Look I had an accident and I got this" he managed to say
""you've got some nerves showing up to my face",
"Am sorry"
"For what Sultan" she calmly asked
"I don't know where to start"
"Then don't start at all" she stood up and added "go home, to your wife and kid, you don't know what you are dealing with" and headed towards the door
"What happened to you Lailah" he asked
"DON'T" she yelled stressing the word "don't call me that"
"Why, you are Lailah, my Lailah, and not some Black Mamba" he said taking a step towards her
"Then you are so naïve" she coldly added and turned to go again

"I can't go home, without you, am sure you know it, since you already know about my wife and kid"
"are you daft, you don't know what is going on here do you, you are just based on the glory of bringing the Nigeria most wanted criminal, and you will get more decorations and maybe a higher rank, am I right" she asked in a taunting tone, and that got to him

"you think is about that, you think I will find it very easy, I will take it lightly that the girl I ever loved has turned to some rouge killer, a drug pusher, some sort of mafia, you think I find easy that she is wanted and I have to bring her in" he asked with tears in his eyes, Black was touched but didn't show it at all,
