Incomplete - Episode 22

*Itz Wednesday morning*

The week have been busy, our company is one step closer to signing the deal with Max consult. Bea and Chris is match made in heaven, in love and soon to be business partners. I smile at my work in getting them close, there is this awkward silence between them whenever we are together planning but I know with time they will come to terms.

I know he must have notice the difference between the chatting Bea and real Bea, lol. I giggle as I remember his last question to Bea “Why the beautiful chat and absent physical talk”

“Mind your lane lady” a driver shouts at me

“Oh my” I shout and navigate to my lane

“Tristy focus, focus” I say to myself

“you have a task to tackle” I exhale and turn the steering

I speed off to the Empire “I have to end this today”

******

I walk through the waiting room to Ma Nora office; she has been waiting for me

“Good morning Ma” I greet with a slight bow before sitting down. The mean looking guard stood like a statue behind her. I look around and my friend guard is absent. I stylishly scratch my hair to check if the chip is still in place, satisfied; I plaster a smile on my face

“you are welcome” she reply

“Are you ready” she ask

“Ready for what”

“For the business” she says with one brow up 

I swallow hard “Oh” I exclaim, I shift nervously on my chair and nod

‘Yes Mah” I answer

She nod to the mean guy, “take her to the dark room, sedate her; I am coming with the drugs” she say with a sly smile

I follow him outside; I bring out my phone and send message to my clique

“I need help, I cannot do drugs” I type quickly and send

. “I pray they come with a plan fast enough”

My phone beam and it’s a message from the guard friend “Hold a sharp object when you are being sedated, it will help keep you conscious” I sigh and keep walking. It buzz again, this time from Chris “Try to keep yourself awake and if you are with the chip, that is a good opportunity to insert it. Be safe, we gaht you”

I sigh “just replies, no new strategy and why on earth is Bea still quiet” I wonder

I give out a loud sigh, the mean guy turn from mixing the drug; look at me and turn to his work. I search frantically around me looking for a sharp piercing object to use. He walks close to me with the syringe and I freeze

I made a mental check and smile as I remember my hair clip. I remove it quietly and squeeze it; pain from the syringe and my hair clip pierce through me at the same time.

I cry silently from the pain; I felt hazy and my eyes, head start spinning. I was half conscious when Ma Nora walks in with the white substance. I cry silently wishing I never start this in the beginning.

She start to bring them out dishing orders and her phone ring out loudly. She frown at the screen, drop what she is doing and answer the call.

“Bea” she say surprised

“You are in my office” she ask walking away from the dark room

‘Bea called” I ask myself “yes, I heard her mention the name’

She walk back, whisper to the guard; he walk out behind her and lock the door firmly.

I lay down tired of fighting to be awake

‘Tristy…… Tristy…. Tristy”

I stir as I hear my name, the pain from my hand remind me of where I am. I hear my name again from the communicating device

“Yes” I answer meekly

“Look for the port under the system” he command

“I can’t. I am weak”

“you can, please do it for us”

I stand feebly from where I lay and stagger to Gods knows where

“where is the system” I ask

“Hold your hands together” he command

I do that and wince at the sharp pain; that make me open my eyes little and I see the system at the center of the room. I stagger to it and sit down

“where do I put it”

“place your hands under it and you will see a match of the chip you are holding; just place it there, I will know once it’s in place”

I bend and feel for the match; I felt it under the system and attach the clip there. ‘Good girl, now I can access it”

I drag my heavy self hurriedly to the place where I lay before the faint steps come closer and dump myself. The door open immediately, Ma Nora walk in with the guard.

She hiss at seeing my state; she is a waste now, we will try next time.

. Take her to the recovering room”

“that girl have waste my time, thought she is here on a business” she hiss again and left

******

I blink repeatedly to the rays of light coming directly into my eyes; the room looks strange to me. I adjust my eyes but feel weak and heavy to stand up; I shift my gaze to the door at the crack of it opening.

The guard walked in and gives me a liquid to drink “go home and rest”. That’s all he said and left

I slowly stand up, pick my bag and leave the room. Outside the gate I saw Bea’s car, she rush out immediately and guide me to the car

‘OMG” she exclaim at seeing my bandaged hand

I smile weakly “I am fine”

“No you are not”

“How did you find me” I ask

“I followed the guard”

“thanks for coming to my rescue”

“I have to, I put you in this mess, I just have to make up an excuse to see her and it worked. The lady thought I am back” she grin at that and drove off

“where to” I ask

“to the hospital of course, I bet the guard did a bad job and I pray he tells nothing of it to Nora”

I smile weakly and doze off

********  We come back from the hospital and met the guys in front of their laptop

“I can see we have yahoo guys in the building” Bea say and we laugh at her joke. We exchange pleasantries, Chris inspect me all round; sympathize with me before laughing at my pity state

I beat him really hard for laughing, “is that all you can do”

“Okay okay, thank you” he murmur still laughing. The other guy exclaims and we cluster round him for explanation.

He showed us the coded alphabets on the screen; proofs of Ma Nora deals with great drug lords, pointing at file X containing Bea video  

“did you view it” Bea ask sharply

He nod positive without looking up. “I have to confirm the video; by the way you looked hot there” he add not smiling

Bea face turn red at that; “can I watch too” I ask

She gave me a murderous look, “I have to confirm too” I add and dodge the bag she aim at me. Chris laugh very loud at her; “what do we do with the video” he ask

“Delete it” she exclaim almost immediately

“Okay, delete it shall be” he click on the delete button

“at last” she murmur

‘your mother used your birth date in all her password; she must have love you so much”

Silence and she walked out on us

He click the download link on MaxN file “lets relax and wait for it to download; tomorrow you go and retrieve the chip”

I blink “you mean I still have to go back there”

He nods and I go limp

My last experience there was terrible and I dread it repeating again. Chris gave me a tap, it felt like an assurance
