TEMI Season 2 Episode 7
Written by Anthony Temiloluwa Kenny (Saintkenz)
Within the two weeks she resumed work, she had completed her mission. She had successfully planted bugs on every corner and crevice of Temi’s apartment in other to pick any sound that emanated. All his cars had also been laced with bugs and GPs to monitor his movements.
All the while he was being sleuth on, he was so totally oblivious of it. He had always returned home to meet cool and calm Nuella. Nuella was a good at what she was doing, so obvious she was a professional snitcher. She knew how to blend to her innocence appearance whenever Temi was around.
She had taken time to forward every of his little and noticeable activities to Pizzarrow, including letting him aware that Temi had only one girl in his life, and his life depend solely on the girl.
Pizzarow had reacted by trailing the girl in question and he soon found out that she was Mirabel. And though Pizzarow had been Dr.Banji’s goon for legion decenniums, he still didn’t know everything about him as Dr.Banji had guardedly shelved his privy affairs and matters from him and the public.
Everybody had always thought Derick was his only child and only close relatives and few people knew about his marital infidelity to his wife which paved way for Mirabel and her sister. Pizzarow was not among the few people that knew about that, hence the reason she didn’t recognize Mirabel the day he met her.
Dr.Banji who knew his wife wouldn’t be able to birth another child for him, and had always insisted his wife travel abroad so he could have enough time to engage in extra marital affair with his mistress then, at first his wife had succumbed, but later changed her mind and returned back to Nigeria. It wasn’t long she returned that his mistress gave birth to a daughter which was Mirabel.
Perceiving the danger looming if his wife got wind of his promiscuity that led to him having another child out of their wedlock, he had sent Mirabel and her mother to Canada, and exactly where Mirabel and her sister were nurtured because Dr.Banji never expend the opportunity of getting his mistress pregnant with another child. He could be heartless and villainous but he still a soft spot for his wife reason while he had this phobia for her.
And after they all returned to Nigeria, Dr.Banji had pleaded with his estranged mother of his two children to remain anonymous to some extent and never go public with his name all the way in which they had reluctantly obliged.
But Dr.Banji couldn’t keep the secret for a long from Derrick, as he got wind of it later on, and asked his father to let him meet his step-sisters. His father didn’t have choice than to accept but begged him to stay mature and never divulge the secret to his mother.
Mirabel, her sister and Derick later met themself, and as expected there was a cordial relationship as that of the same blood between them, they loved each other like brother and sisters even though Derrick had never been a graduate even at his older age, whereas Mirabel had graduated before returning to Nigeria. Still there was no fuss or rivalry of any such between the trio and Derrick had fulfilled his promise to hover the situation from his mother. And of course it pained Mirabel to the bone that he lost his newly known brother to an unknown killer.
Pizzarow had no inch knowledge of all these, knowing that Temi’s happiness depend on Mirabel, he had decided to give him an excruciated and rack death.
He wanted him to feel the pain his boss felt when he lost his only son. Pizzarow had decided to first kill Mirabel, and watch how Temi would lament in anguish of loosing someone so indispensable, then while in his bereaved state he would strike unexpectedly. He would kidnap him and have Don Ban shoot him straight on his head. What a better way to end a baleful enemy of his boss. Killed by own his father.

Inspector Lance hadn’t gotten himself together right from the day Mirabel had warned him to stay away from her. It was glaring to her he was fast loosing the girl of his dream to a killer.
Mirabel had been the only girl his heart fostered right from their puerility and they both graduated from the same university in Canada.
He had no intention of coming to Nigeria to settle down, but the moment Mirabel told him she and her family were returning to Nigeria, he knew he wouldn’t survive without her reason while he also came back to Nigeria and quickly secure his dream job.
He should have told her how he felt but he had always been timid and diffident, and the fear of eventually disrupting their friendship always gagged his mout from talking. Now he was finally loosing her. He knew the only one thing he could do to mole the love between Mirabel and Temi was to prove him guilty of killing Mirabel’s brother.
He wasn’t even concerned about how he had derailed from the line and norms guiding his job. To him, nothing matter more than getting Mirabel.
“Ring Ring” his phone bleeped up as he rushed down to his car. That morning, he had intended to visit Dr.Banji for questioning and even informed him. He had a feeling he was connected one way or the other to the death of his son. Matthew’s had informed him that.
“Yea. Helloo ” he spoke after he settled at the driver’s seat.
“Helloooooooooo ” he yelled out again after he received a steamed silence as a repy the first time he talked. He tried to look if the caller was still on. He was still.
“Is anybody there “? He queried
“Inspector Lance i am here” A deep cracked voiced sipped out.
“okk who are you exactly”? He said feeling uneasy at way the voice sounded.
“Don’t bother about that. I’m just calling to help you.” The voice oozed out making Lance feeling very irritated and indignant.
” Help on what Mr. Caller ? Do i look like i need help “? He said threw out.
“Well i think that you need my help, unless if you don’t wana Know the killer of Derrick Olanbanji” the voiced seemed confidence making Lance jolted up with happiness.
“You have that.. I i mean the killer of ..”
“Yes Lance. I have everything you need to put him behind bars, As a matter of fact he is my enemy too, and i so fuvking him want him down” the caller said deliberately dumping the *inspector part.
“So how do i see you to talk this out”
“Address and time will be sent to your device shortly. Just follow the prescribed instruction for your invite.” He said.
“Ok. Thank you”
“And one more thing Lance, endeavour to come alone. I have phobia for crowd” the man gave a stern warning derisively.
