"What is your predicament?" he repeated slowly I was getting pissed. My predicament is; I led my coworker and friend to an early grave, my fiancé if I dare call her that, was gallivanting around God knows where, doing God knows what. I had never even seen or held a gun all my life but in less than 48 hours I've somehow managed to stare down the barrel of a gun. I also endangered my family and anyone foolish enough to call me a friend and not too long ago I put an innocent woman, someone's grandmother in ICU. "What's your predicament?" Short legs asked again, spacing his words slowly as if each held a double meaning. My brain clicked suddenly; "I have delayed diagnosis" He nodded briefly. "Welcome. I'm Doctor Rasheed". ::::::::::::::::::::: Rex Obasi was just an average banker struggling to deal with his fiance dissapearing after eight years. In a crazed moment of greed, he steals valuable documents worth millions but there's something else in the mix; a piece of paper containing numbers - coordinates he doesn't understand. When the coordinates lead to a deadly human trafficking ring, operating under the guise of an N.G.O, Rex realizes he has stumbled on what is no doubt the most dangerous organized crime, operating since 1989. His life of deposit slips and checkbooks are turned upside down, now it's guns and bullets, knives and assassins. It's up to Rex to put an end to it, redeem his conscience, and just maybe he could get a second shot at love. But there's every possibility that a bullet is coming next.

All they know is that she wears a hoodie. *~*~*~* "HOLY SHIT, NOAH! WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU LET THE TROLLEY GO?! COME BACK! OH MY FUCKING LIFE, FIZZY DRINKS UP AHEAD--" BANG FIZZ POP "...am I dead?" I'm suddenly grabbed by the back of my hoodie and pulled up from the ground and out of the mess of the opened bottles of fizzy which had exploded when the trolley and I crashed into them. My hands instantly go to my hood and I sigh in relief to find that it hadn't fallen off through all of that. I turn my head and look the the employee who's holding me, his face completely red and the vein in his neck throbbing. "Wassup, dude?" I smile sheepishly. *~* {HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 in Funny #1 in Sad And #1 in Cancer apparently }

♕ 𝙄 𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙖𝙛𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙧𝙠, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙄 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙄'𝙫𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙧𝙠, 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙮 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 ♕ The world is a bitter place, but if you can just find the right amount of sweetness, you'll do just fine. Adopted numerous times, rejected just as much times as she was adopted - moving from one foster home to another. This girl learnt to be tough, she wasn't weak, she didn't want to get broken by anything she'd come across. Instead, she'd give herself a reason to look at the odds with a shrug, and move on. Alongside a crazy highschool experience and overwhelming infatuations as well as teenage dramas and insecurities, Alisa Chimezie, threads through the eggshells placed before her, with her head held high and an indifferent shrug. A thirst for power, shielded by greed and selfishness, A tango with the devil, in the shadows of her own nightmare, A bath in blood, and secrets - too scary to reveal... All these are served on her plate, with her nightmares slowly coming to life, in the Ekwegh mansion. The lies on their tongue, so frequent, yet brisk with it. Everyone seems to be liars, and are not who they claim to be. And in this hazy madness, and cobweb created by her fears, Alisa is left all alone. Adopted. Rejected. Wronged. One can only hope that her guard isn't left broken and shattered. Warning: Contains a few cussing and a little bit of violence. Not much. ~Bittersweet~ Copyright © Chisom. A. S 2020
