PRIME SUSPECT

Chapter 13

Dennis went back to his house feeling very relieved  and  looking  happy, he entered  his living room where his sister was  watching  a movie.

"I would be getting  you another apartment  soon"Dennis told her  immediately.

"Why?"Nora asked

She stood  up from the chair, paused the movie and moved closer to her  brother.

"Why?"she asked again .

"My wife is moving  in with  me in two weeks time, which  means  I'm  getting  married in two weeks time " Dennis told her.

"Your wife?"Nora asked and laughed  hysterically .

"Why are you laughing? "Dennis asked

"Nothing, who is the wife and why is the wedding  so fast? "She asked .

"Because she's  carrying my baby, so the  wedding  is a silent and  fast one"Dennis answered  her.

"Who is carrying  your baby? "she asked  looking  confused

"Eugenia "Dennis  told her

"So you  stll impregnated  that girl after all you did to Sandra " Nora  said  angrily .

"Nora what  is your problem?"Dennis asked her angrily.

"But wait, if you  are getting  married, why do want  to send me away  from your house?"Nora asked .

"I am not sending  you out of the house, but you  and Eugenia  aren't  friends, and she's  pregnant, she needs  peace  of mind,and you  are stubborn Nora"Dennis explained.

"Really?So you want  to send me away because of Eugenia, no problem"She said and walked  out on her brother .

Immediately she walked out, Dennis sat on the couch looking frustrated.

"Nora doesn't try to understand people "he said to himself.

Just as he was in a deep thought, Nora came down stairs  dragging her bag on the floor, The sound of her bag made Dennis  look back, he stood up immediately  and moved  close  to his sister .

"Nora where are you going?" he asked trying to stop her.

"I'm  leaving your house"She answered as she placed her bag  on the ground.

"Why? "Dennis asked .

"You just said I should  leave " She told him.

"No Nora, I will get you the apartment  and furnish it for you"he told her.

"There is no need, I have a place to sleep,i would be safe, since  my own brother  sent me away  from his house because  of his wife"She said.

"But Nora, where are you going?Who are you going to meet? "he asked furiously.

"That's none of your business "she  answered carrying her things  from the floor.

"Nora, I am your brother,I have every right to know your whereabouts"Dennis said angrily.

"You don't own my life so you dont have any right to know where I'm going to,  and please  stay out my way"Nora said  almost  pushing  Dennis out  of her way as she left the house 

Dennis was dumbfounded, he couldn't  say anything .

"Nora I'm  sorry "he pleaded when he finally  found his voice  then ran after his sister.

"Hello"she said .

"Eugenia, she left  angrily "Dennis said on the phone.

"Who left? "Eugenia asked in a surprised  tone.

"Nora"Dennis answered.

"Why? "Eugenia asked.

"I told her about the apartment  and she became angry, I don't know, I've  been calling  her  phone  she isn't  picking up my calls."
Dennis  told her sounding  frustrated.

"Do you  have an idea of where she might be? "Eugenia asked .

"No I don't "Dennis replied

"No problem dear"Eugenia said.
