THEIR ANGEL

V

"Group of kids being led by the so called Angel boy were around Coptic hospital. We were not allowed to see him but they were mourning the death of 6 persons who were killed at a shootout that happened today at Rongai....." I turned off the TV.

"What will you do about their killers." Mum asked worried. They knew how ruthless I can be when I'm angry. Not to tune my own horn but it's the truth that's why you will never find me angry but this time round, Hector crossed the line.

"I don't know mum. But I'm sure I'll ruin him." I said. "Tomorrow will be the cremation of Leila and Annette. Please go there, for her mum."

"I wouldn't have missed it. Don't worry. Go to sleep now." Mum said pushing me down.

"Thanks mum." I snuggled between mum and little Tina holding her tight as my sister slept behind her. "Thank you everyone." They all nodded before wishing each other good night. I slept well.

"My deepest condolences to the families. This was abrupt and I know it might hurt but you have to be strong for the rest of your families." I sat and watched as people spoke giving condolences and speeches about the girls we were about to burry. We were to start with Lyn who lived close and her parents wanted to burry her at their home. Then Winnie who was Lyn's Neighbour. Then Lydia and Anastasia who were sister's. Then lastly Annete and Leila who wanted their ashes to be thrown to the mountains. I hugged each parent who were weirdly more worried about me than themselves. They only asked for the perpetrators to be punished and that I will give them. The media still didn't get my face. Later that night we had a party to celebrate their lives.

"Can I stay with your son tonight?" I asked his parents who looked confused. "I'm just tired of the pitty looks everyone give me. I think I need the hatred look he gives me."

"Hey, we understand you." Mr Maina said patting my shoulder. "Go on, you know where his room is." I nodded going to his room.

"Get out." He said as I budged in.

"Can I stay the night please." I asked pouting and giving my best puppy eyes.

"No get out."

"If not, I will shout to the world how the strong, mighty, player Dennis Maina has a crush on me." His eyes widened before narowing quickly.

"You are drunk." I nodded. "How much did you drink in a span of 2 hours. It's nine and the party started at seven." He laughed. "Light weight."

"Hey, I am not." I staggered a little bit. "Come on, let me stay." I jumped on his bed and the next thing I know I'm in dream land.

The pills are for your headache. Eat and get the fuck out of my room. I chuckled reading the note. That is definitely Dennis. I went to the kitchen where I found his mum cooking.

"Morning." I said rubbing my eyes. "Sorry I budged in last night." I know I did but what did I do? I hope I didn't do anything silly.

"It's okay Jaime. Dennis was so mad. He slept at the guest room and left early this morning." I chuckled.

"Why does he hate me so much?" I asked.

"I don't know, maybe it was your relationship with his sister. He was jealous you know." She laughed.

"Well, call him back home. He needs to continue his tuition." Her eyes widened.

"He agreed?" She asked.

"I have my ways. Do you in any way have spare toothbrush?" She showed me one and left me as I sat in his room replying messages.

"Urgh. You still are here?" He asked irritated. "Get out."
