Back to her room Black was having an internal battle, to let the long locked emotions burst out or not,

"Screw Sultan" she calmly said as held on to the rails of the balcony, 'you are Black Mamba, don't let his presence spoil everything' a voice in her head said

But she couldn't help but succumb to think about the past, the past she so much distaste nothing about the past was appealing to her, nothing but her lost baby,

His cries, his weak innocent cries are the reason for her nightmares every now and then,

FLASHBACK.

Lailah was back at home with her baby, the two were asleep, the cries of her baby was what woke her up some minutes past midnight,

She checked the time as she carried the infant, and to her shock Sultan wasn't back,

She stood up with her crying baby and went to the sitting room, sat down as she tried to breastfeed him,

When the baby calmed down, she dialed his number but it was switch off, deep inside her, she knew something was wrong,

And after staying in silence for some minutes, she heard the gate open, she sighed thinking it was Sultan and hopefully waited for him to come in,

But she was stunned when two hefty men unlocked the door and came in,

"What is happening" she asked, she tried to shout as they approach her but she was gagged and the last thing she could see before everything went dark, was one of the man carrying her son.

She groggily opened her eyes, and she felt she was in a moving vehicle,

"Where is my baby" she tried to say but no words came out of her mouth, she couldn't speak but she could hear them

"is the child included"

"Yes, boss doesn't want anything linking to his son"

"Wicked, but where the son, he suppose be here with his girl and child, if it is me, i go dey to protect them "

"He don travel, this night now",

She knew they meant Sultan, "Sultan" she tried again but no words, and then darkness enveloped her.

Again it was the cries of her baby that woke her up, she weakly opened her eyes, she let out a gasp due to confusion and due to the blazing fire eating away the straw walls surrounding her,

At that spot she recalled the men and she passing out,

"No, no please help" she shouted, "Sultan" she cried and she tried to hurriedly stand up to find her baby who at that moment was weakly crying, but her body betrayed her and she collapsed back to the hard ground, she was weak, so weak,

The cries of her child was now nothing more than a feeble,

She begun to pull her body to where she could see a small heap with a shawl, and as she pulls her body towards the cries died down,

With more determination, she pulled and pulled and just when she was about make the final pull a huge part of the straw hall fell on the heap she knew was her baby,

"Nooooooo" she screamed as a new found strength came to her and she leaped and begun to pushing away the burning straw with her bear hands,
