The Bodyguard 2 Episode 6 by Tisa Phiri
Ackim..
In exactly 30 minutes we entered kitwe . All the time as we moved , Jane remained quite . I was too upset with her to even look at her face .
Jim grabbed a ciggarate from the bonet and lit it , one for you ? He asked me .
No I will pass , I told him shrugging . I have not smoked in a year . Mmmmm staying healthy uh ? He asked with a laugh . Yeah , I stopped when my wife was pregnant , she wouldn’t let me smoke and get close to her man plus she insisted l had to quit before our kids were born . I smiled at the thought of that .
I remembered I sat outside on the corridor as I took in a cigarrate ,Paula came and sat a step away from me , come here my love why are you seating away ? I asked looking at her . She was almost 3 Months pregnant then .
I thought we talked about smoking Ackim , that smoke is not good for you , besides if you insist l will make sure you won’t come any closer if you take in that poison , she added making a face and to punish me further that night , she chased me from the bedroom to the spare room .
Please love let me in I can’t sleep alone here I complained seated by the door , she had locked herself in . I tried brushing my teeth and assure her I was not smelling any cigarette but she wouldn’t just open .
I recalled retiring to the other room upset . How painful it felt staying away from her , it was like she was part of my body and being away the whole night was really a torture .
She came to the room in the morning and laughed so hard at how I was curled up in the bed . I hope you will never smoke again she teased walking way .
I ran to her before she could close the door , oh no not again I told her, you can’t punish me the whole night and expect to be free this morning , I told her as I grabbed her back to the bed .
She smiled as I lay her down on the bed . I first kissed her tummy to say good Morning to the kids and went up as she closed her eyes .
I had kissed her and caressed her until she was breathless and I left her . Oh no Ackim she screamed following me to the sitting room . How dare you leave me like this she cried as she chased me .
Uh so you thought you would get away with that punishment you gave me ? I asked as she sat down powerless . I laughed as she pretended to be crying .
I am going to find a man outside to finish what you have failed to do she shouted walking to the door .
I caught her by the door and kissed her leading her back to the couch in the sitting room , tell me you will never leave me out again I whispered as I touched her most sensitive parts . She mourned as she nodded , mmmmmm I can’t get you I whispered kissing her ears .
I won’t provided you don’t smoke again she said looking into my eyes even after we fell back down panting she still reminded me of not smoking and I knew I had to take a step to stop and since that day I had not smoked .
Recalling such moments made me shed a tear , thankfully it was dark in the car no one could see l was crying . I missed my woman and I knew if not for Jane and the other people who were determined to hurt us l would be curled up with her that moment .
So ? I finally spoke up as I parked in front of the lodge on the address , is this the place I cleared my throat as I turned to look at Jane .
Yes she answered in a low tone . Tell me which room they are keeping my kids ? I asked her sternly .
I told you I don’t know all the details she responded carelessly , I was only told it’s this place but I am not aware of anything else .
Lie to me Jane and I swear you won’t see the sun today I warned as I got out . I was driving the land cruiser and I was glad I used that car cause it was black , it wasn’t easy to spot especially in the dark night .
Jim followed me outside and I asked him to stay back and watch out as I went to check out the place .
I used a tactic I learned from the military to always check out the camp of the enemy before attacking , moving around I took in the yard of the lodge from the Wall fence .
I saw a guard at the gate and as I approached I noticed he was fast asleep.I didn’t want to risk anyone knowing I was around but again getting in illegally would cause the problems for me .
So I shrugged and went to kick the guard slightly . He woke up with a start , who are you ? he asked his face still sleepy . I could see his fat face from the light that shown around the gate.
Take it easy I told him calmly , now if you tell me what I need to know and give me the correct information this will be yours I said showing him some K100 notes .
He looked at my hands and licked his lips wanting to grab it .
Oh no I whispered , first things first , tell me if any one walked in the lodge with babies ? I asked . The children are twins I added , now did you see any of such ?
He stayed quite as though trying hard to remember . Hey I told him I don’t have the whole day . Look am not a criminal , those people you saw took my twins and I know they are here , all I need is for you to confirm you saw something and leave the rest to me I told him holding his shoulder making sure my grip was strong enough to make him know who was in charge .
He winced a bit before speaking up . I saw an elderly woman and a man walk in some hours ago .
Good now thats more like it , l patted his shoulder . Now second favour , watch out here for me as I go inside , don’t do anything stupid cause if you do, I won’t pay you this money but your reward will be a deep grave I added as I stood from where I had squat close to him .
Walking to the reception I met a tall and light lady who smiled widely . Good evening Sir , she greeted happily .
It’s morning I smiled back .
Oh yeah Morning it is , she chuckled . So how may I help you ? She asked .
I went close to her and whispered . I really need your help beautiful, and if you help me I know I will never forget your beautiful face I said flirting .
She smiled , well let’s hear what the gentleman wants .
I told her my mother was lodging there with my kids and that my wife had ran away so I needed to see her cause her phone was off .
Oh am sorry you are going through that with your wife , so tell me what’s the name of this your mother so I check her room number .
You see that’s the problem , she just got my kids and didn’t tell me so I must presume she isn’t using her real names I told her seriously with a sad face .
She shook her head , am sorry I can’t give you that information then , you have to understand . lt’s policy .
Oh please I begged.I need to see my children please help a poor and desperate man I told her. I know you can help , if I cause any trouble please call the police on me . lf you want take me there yourself and you will see am not lying .
She was quite for some time and finally sighed ,ok I will tell you the room but please don’t sell me out..
You are an angel I smiled . I wish l married you instead of my wife who is causing me trouble I flirt smilling and I saw her smile back .
I walked to the room I was told , looking at my watch it was almost 02 am .
I knocked softly on the door and waited , it was quite for a while and l knocked again and this time I heard a female voice ask ,who is there ?
Sorry Madam am the room service man , we have a problem with our Dstv and I need to check on your TV , I spoke in a tuned voice .
Oh am sorry am sleeping I heard Chikola answer. We are not using the TV right now .
I understand madam but the thing is the connection to the other room is from your room and the other guest is complaining it won’t take a minute I said .
Slowly I saw the door open , before she could see who was by the door . I quickly pushed back the door and it hit her in the face pushing her down to the floor .
You ! She screamed , yes me I responded lifting her by her dress .
I saw the bed was empty , where are the kids ? I asked her still holding her. Let me go you fool I don’t know what you are talking about .
Oh sure you know , l snapped angrily and you will tell me now .
She smiled wickedly , go to hell you bodyguard and Gold digger she spat .
I felt my anger rise and I knew at that moment I could do anything even kill for my children .
Listen am not a fool , you showed yourself at my wedding and the boys went missing and I have your acomplice outside so stop playing games or I swear to God you will not like me at all . I scolded pushing her hard to the corner of the bed not caring as her dress went up exposing her spoted thighs .I noticed she had patches all over her body . lt was evident she used lighting skin lotions but her old skin was not really accepting the bleaching .
Let me go and leave me alone you idiot or I will scream she Warned .
Or I see you are not good at dialogue , scream and let them call the police so you see how all this will work out for you .
With force I grabbed her neck and pushed her further to the wall .
She gulped her eyes popping out .
Where are they ? I asked agian as I lossened the hold on her .
She started saying something but her voice wasn’t coming out . I let her go and she breathed heavely .
What was that again ? I asked her .
She stayed quite .
Now I was done being patient , I lifted my hand and landed it on her face , the next one missed her eye and l saw a bump rise on the corner of her eye .
She tried to scream but I quickly held her mouth , tell me were they are I warned my eyes direct set on her.
Talk now I whispered angrily before I could hit her again .
She shouted .
In the next room ! raising her hand to avoid my slap .
I lifted her with one hand , move you are showing me the room . She staggered as she led me to the next door and I quickly grabbed my phone and text Jim to come enter and secure the doors not to let Jane escape .

Ackim…
I let Chikola lead the way to the next room . She knocked and when the man inside answered I warned her not to do anything funny .
It’s me she responded as he opened the door to let her in , I pushed it open and grabbed the man before he could grab the gun he had placed on the small table in the room . I took it quickly and hit him on the head before he could fight me back .
Looking around l saw the twins laying in the bed , two feeding bottles besides them . I wondered what their plan was . I was assuming Chikola a woman was to be with them . I then realised that they planned to guard the kids and that it was probably easy to let them be with one with strength to fight back .
I rushed to them checking if they were okey . The kids were fast asleep , I was carried away inspecting the babies and didn’t notice Chikola coming to hit me with a stool . I luckily grabbed it from her and pushed her down . Her accomplice come to me and charged forward . He hit me hard and as I staggard towards the Wall he come with full force punching me .
As We engaged into a fight I saw Chikola grab one of the babies and started heading out .
My attention shifted to saving my baby and the guy took advantage punching me , he grabbed the stool thrown down and lashed it on my head sending me down in an instance .
I shook to stand up and shouted noo ! Bring back the boy I screamed powerless . She ignored my scream and headed right to the door .
I lifted myself grabbing back the stool and pushed the guy to the Wall with the strength I remained with .
I was not going to let them take one of the twins away and the mission of the guy fighting me was clear . He wanted to delay me to let Chikola escape .
I struggled to keep him to the wall his height advantage over mine making it a challenge .
I heard someone walk in the room and saw Chikola coming back in , Jim pointing a gun at her. Gaining momentum I lashed at the guy hiting him with the other hand as he was still pinned to the wall .
His mouth was filled with blood and I noticed he was weak . I felt the rage for all the trouble I had been , the pain I saw in Paula’s eyes with my hands I continued hitting even when I saw he was not moving .
Stop, that’s enough man . Jim pushed me back , I tried going back to finish him but Jim held me so tight not letting me go .
Think of your kids man , he shouted . Let me finish him Jim I snapped feeling my anger not quenched .
Chikola tried to escape but I ran to her holding her by her dress before she could leave the door . I slapped her hard sending her to the floor .
Calm down Ackim , Jim held my hand as I went to hit her again .
I sighed and walked to the twins . Kim was just waking up his brother fast asleep .
Hey sonny I smiled wipping the blood from my hand , it’s dad , you okay ? I asked lifting him up . I got Paul on the other hand and slowly walked out .
In the corridor I met the police officers . Hold it ! They shouted at me , don’t move .
Am not a criminal officer I told them . I just came to get kids they were kidnapped last night . The culprits are in that room I said Indicating with my head .
They passed me as I walked on , I saw the lady at the reception stand in the corner with the guard . I looked at them both , thank you I told them with a weak smile . I got what I came for . The lady nodded her head and wiped a tear from her eye . l hope all goes well for you sir she told me .
Thank you l let a smile as I walked out , my babies held tight in my arms .
I took them to the car and one of the police officers outside asked me to go to the station to go and give my statement .
I gave them details and even reported Jane who was taken in together with Chikola and the other guy who they put on a stretcher . He was still breathing but his face was dismantled .
Come on man let’s take you to your wife , Jim said patting my back .
I got in the back seat with the boys as he drove us . Thank you man I told Jim .
You came right on time and you have really been great . I owe you one man I added .
That’s what mates are for dont mention it , you would do the same for me .
Yeah I nodded as I lifted Paul who I had put down on the seat as Kim sucked his finger laying in my laps .
Yes my love , yeah am okey and the babies too I answered as I talked to Paula . I called her to let her know we were safe .
Oh my God am so happy you guys are okey she shouted , tell me how far you are from getting home and can’t wait .
Soon , we are just from giving reports at the police station now we are on our way back .
Paula and her father waited for us and ran to welcome us as we turned to the yard , she ran to hug and kissed me tears in her eyes . Thank you for bringing back the boys and yourself my love , she touched the twins one after the other as she checked them .
Oh I missed you two she cried as she took them in the house .
Come here I clear your face she told me after she went to put the kids in their room after changing and feeding them .
I had stayed talking and giving the details to her father . Am so proud of you Ackim , he told me. You have always put your life on the line for my daughter and I know you won’t let me down ever . You are the strongest and most courageous and braviest man I know soldier , your heart is exceptional too .
I appreciate it Sir , I told him honestly .
Paula grabbed my hand and led me to the bedroom where she had prepared a first aid box and some warm water for me to clean up .
I winced as she wipped the small cut on my head , you need to go to the hospital babe , she told me , there are more than two cuts in your head .
No forget it love . Am not going anywhere just do what you can do I will be fine .
She shrugged and shook her head , you are stubborn Ackim .
I won’t leave your side and the kids I told her .
It was already 6 hours by the time I finished bathing and Paula stitched my wounds . I felt so tired I had to retire to bed after taking some strong pain killers , go on and rest Paula’s father told me when l went to check on the kids . Am here nothing will happen to any of them , they are safe he emphasized . Paula stayed back in the twins room as I went to bed .
I fall asleep almost immediately l lay down .
I woke up 4 hours later . Hey handsome Paula called me , she came to sit next to me .
How are the boys I asked her ? They are okey I called the Doctor to check on them , everything is okey . They are both so much asleep she added .
You are our hero babe she told me , what would I have done without you ?
I smiled at her , maybe gotten a life with that American I saw at the reception . I saw the way he looked at you Paula , tell me who that man is ?
She looked down and I knew my suspicions were right . I suspected the two of them had a past .
Forget it Paual , all I want to know is that you two are nothing more than just people with some history .
I love you Ackim and I can never do anything to break your heart she told me . Am sorry I didn’t tell you he was coming , I was caught by surprise as well . Serah invited him over and I didn’t get to understand why .
Umm that friend of yours I don’t trust her I said plainly . I know I have no right to chose friends for you but I don’t like that one .
Ackim can we stop discussing other people that don’t matter , come here she said extending her hands . I missed you so much she smiled and I love you . My friend and my past are just that , you are the one that matter to me .
I put my head on her chest as she talked brushing her hand in my head . I love you so much my woman I just hope someone will not make me want to kill them over you .
She ignored my statement and went on pulling me closer before kissing me passionately .
We made love and she sighed holding my face . Am yours and yours only , believe that okey she whispered seriously .
Just then her friend walked in without knocking , Oh am sorry guys I thought you are alone Paula she smiled looking at me and I knew she was trouble . Someone is asking for you , they said they are from Solwezi? Something to do with the mine she added .
Oh yeah Paula asnwered , sorry babe I need to sign some documents before we leave for our honeymoon .
Yeah I nodded and lay back down as she quickly dressed and headed out .
A few minutes later I stood to go and take another bath , turning I saw Serah standing by the door her tongue out .
what the hell , I screamed grabing a sheet to cover myself .
Wow ! She exclaimed biting her lip , I see why Paula is all over you , you are a true defination of a man Ackim .
Get out of my room I screamed pushing her out , what is wrong with you , are you are sick in the head…..
