Here's the chapter!

Chioma's POV.

To say I was scared was an understatement. After what happened to that girl from the hospital, I've not been myself and although I hate to say it; I actually feel bad for her.

Flashback...

Seb was about entering avenue street with me at the back seat, watching out for her stupid car. We were just about entering her street when a black Camry rode towards her car with great speed and blocked the girl's car. Before we knew what was going on, the armed robbers got down from the car and forcefully made the girl to get down from her car. The next thing I know was that they pointed a gun to her head and then I ordered Seb to take me home before they actually sight our car. We saw what happened but I was too scared to do anything or call the police. I don't even know if they killed her or not.

"Ma'am, we should have contacted the police. They might kil--"

"Shut up and take me home, and remember to never ever mention this to anyone or else I'll make sure you lose your job" I warned Seb, cutting him off.

"Yes ma'am" he said and then drove off.

~~~

I feel really awful and guilty. I shouldn't have gone home without at least contacting the police. I might be a bit selfish--oh...Kay, a lot selfish--but still, I have a heart. What if they actually killed her? I mean, I wanted to teach her a lesson not kill her. I just wanted to confront her and maybe give her a beating or something but not to have her dead at least.

My phone rang beside me and I shrieked a little, snapping out of my reverie. I picked up my phone and checked the caller's ID, it was Amanda.

"Hey babes...what's going on?" She said and I took a deep breathe, to calm my nerves, before speaking.

"I-I-I'm okay. I was just...em, I was just resting" I replied.

"You sound down. What's wrong? How did the interview go?" She asked and that made me remember the girl again.

"It went well...I guess. Okay, it's a lie. It was awful!" I blurted out.

"What happened?" Amanda asked and I told her all that had happened at the hospital, including the part about that girl's rude attitude and then the last part of seeing her being attacked by armed robbers and not doing a thing about it.

"Chioma, how could you?! That's wickedness na" she shrieked and I sighed in frustration. Of course I know that! That's why I'm feeling guilty...

"Don't you think I know that?!" I yelled in frustration.

"Abeg don't shout at me oh, as it is now I already have a huge headache. And I wouldn't want you to add to my headache" she said all matter-of-fact-ly.

"Whatever. So what are you doing?" I decided to change the topic.

"Working" she said in a 'duh' tone.

"Oh...Kay" I dragged "so afterwards you'll be free na" I said.

"Yeah...but first I think you have to find out if that girl is still alive" Amanda said something which I dreaded to hear.
