EPISODE 21; WE WAIT FOR TOMORROW
I nodded, climbed out of the jacuzzi, and walked into the room. I picked up my towel which was placed in a hidden panel in the middle room only accessible by me. Toweled my body, creamed it then went to my day dresser machine.
I picked up the top place for me to see it was a strapless top and my face stretched into a frown. “I don’t like this top Mira.”
“But…,”
“Don’t but my words Mira and take the damn top away!”
“I’m sorry Lord. It’s been trashed. Check again.”
I checked again and what I saw made me smile. A top with long sleeve hands and was covered everywhere.
I don’t know how ladies manage. But if I’m not on the beach I hate my armpits being in view when I’m on clothes and so I hate all ladies who dress that way too.
“What style do you need your hair to be styled into Lord Snipy?”
“None, I’ll be going natural. Thanks for your time.”
“You’re welcome Lord Snipy. I’m happy to always be of help.”
I walked out of my room with a new glass of wine and a cigar and entered into the entry room to see Declan pacing up and down.
“Mistress” he muttered and rushed to me immediately he saw me.
“What is it Declan? Why are you panicking?”
“Your step mum plans to slay your brother and Frank if she doesn’t hear of your burial ceremony tomorrow. She’s afraid you might be alive and hiding.”
“But even if I was dead, will killing my brother and Frank be of any gain to her?”
“You know your step mum mistress, she’s competing with Jah’s one time Angel in wickedness but luckily for us, she doesn’t know we know everything she discusses. The painful part is that she plans to give your brother a painful death.”
“What’s the plan now? And where is my step mum’s twin?”
“She just left to have some food before you came in.”
He looked back and forth before he nodded.
“Why are you peeping?”
“I’m sorry but I don’t trust that twin even though she’s been helpful mistress.”
“I know we are not to trust anyone but she’s clean. She doesn’t have anything against us.”
“I won’t accept this till everything is over mistress. I’m watching her closely.”
“Just say what you wanna say Declan and forget about that.”
“All our plans have been carried out mistress. See” he whispered pointing at the tv.
“I stared at it and he clicked it on and the first thing that showed on the screen was the announcement of our death though they concentrated basically on me cause their pictures weren’t even shown. He picked up the remote and changed it to so many other news channels and it was the same thing.
“She did the work so early.”
“Yea, All thanks to who you’re. My police friend and his crew have already submitted their results to the same lady or do we call her a journalist so before evening their part of the story will be life.”
“So the plan now is to get two or three trustworthy friends of mine for the burial?”
“That’s right mistress.”
“Get me a phone Mira.”
“What model Lord Snipy?”
“Just get me a little phone Mira.”
“Ok, has been placed on the safe a few steps away from you.”
Declan rushed off and brought the phone then handed it to me.
“Is there a sim in it? And is it on?”
“Yes, mistress.”
I dialed in a number and it was picked on the first ring.
“Hello Jayden” I whispered.
“Mafia Lord? You are alive? Is that really you? How is that possible? The news channels all over the world are blooming of how you and your men were all burnt to death and here you are calling me.”
“Not something explainable on phone Jayden. I am alive. Where are you? I’m hearing noises. Is Lucas close to you?”
“Yea we are in the club. We came to drink away our sorrow of your urgent demise.”
“Stop the pranks Jayden. We both know what you went to do.”
He chuckled and I turned to Declan. “Are two dudes ok?”
“Yes, mistress. Just tell them to meet up at the railway and they should make sure they are not trailed.”
“You heard him Jaden. We need you both at the railway right now and you know I hate being kept waiting.”
“Who is that Jayden? Is that not Snipy’s voice?” I heard Lucas ask from the background.
“You will know when we get where we are going” Jayden replied. “We are already on our way coming mistress.”
“Good, see ya” I replied and ended the call.
Declan handed me a cloak which I wore and we were about to head out through the railway route in the house when my step mum’s twin came out of her room.
“Snipy” she whispered. “Good morning hun. You both heading somewhere?”
“Yes, we are. Good morning. Relax and enjoy. We won’t take time.”
“Ok.”
“Let her have anything she wants Mira.”
“Yes Lord Snipy.”
We walked through the route and came out in front of the railway and the route disappeared.
“Here!” Lucas screamed and we went to them. “Mafia Lord” Jayden mumbled and both hugged me.
“We thought we lost you both” Lucas whispered.
“Not yet. Here is why we called you both.”
“You lost Dagrin? How can this be going on and you didn’t tell us?” Jayden asked after I was done explaining everything to them.
“You know me Jayden. I hate crowd and I love doing things myself. Yes, we lost Dagrin.”
“Expect the news of your burial ceremony first thing tomorrow morning. Till then bye” Lucas muttered.
“You both should be very careful tomorrow. I can’t afford to lose any other dude.”
“You don’t have to worry. Declan keep her safe.”
“Sure. Au revoir” Declan answered and we turned back.
I touched a spot in the air and the route appeared back and we walked in.
“We wait for tomorrow now, mistress” Declan muttered and I nodded.
