Chapter seven: she is here...and its stormy!


SOMEWHERE IN NIGERIA

"What happened?".

Sarah came in saw you lying down flat on the floor she ran out and called me. B what happened?, is it another attack?". B didn't answer she just looks at P and asked "Where is my passport?"

Of course it was with me, B knows I always kept it P thought.

"Seriously? Is in the safe. What in the world is going on B?". She didn't answer instead she just turns around and starts carrying her files and gathering some of her inner wears in the box. P and Sarah were just standing watching her. P then ask Sarah to give them space. She then ask B to say something she was making her nervous and angry.

"I need you to book the flights am going to Washington this minute". P was so confuse so she just holds B firmly and looks her in the eye." B please TELL ME...!" . B held her gaze for a while then turns, took her iPad slide it and gives P to read for herself. Immediately she read her head snapped up and she asks.

"What the fuck! Is this some kind of a stupid childish joke?". B just looks at her without blinking, looking so small and said.

"Does it look like am joking? Am going now and for the last time P get me my passport". P knew this side of B, she wasn't going to answer her now so than for them to fight she rather just they move so she can understand the shit she just read. And they needed S too on this one. So, she just picks her phone calls the office and books three tickets to Washington then turns to B.

"you are not going alone am going with you and so is S". She turns and started to the door.

"Will meet you downstair in fifteen". Suddenly B called.

"P, u know u don't have to, there is a lot of work to be done here, i need you both here i trust u both here most". P had already opened the door she turns.

"Yes I know and am still going and nothing in this world can stop me". with that she left, went to her office got in the safe brought out their passports, some cash, her files and gadgets then calls S.

"Hello P am quite busy now am about going in that meeting with this Devils called government officials who don't have a single shred of sympathy for their people's welfare so whatever it is ca...". P had had enough of S's rambling.

"listen we are going to Washington this night, this minute".S stopped at the door of the office where the crucial meeting was going to be held.

"What? No I can't didn't u just hear what I said?, Am too busy just go with B whatever it is i will cat...". P knows S too well she has to argue every point, but not now. If she wasn't her best friend she would have long been done with her.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP SPENCE! Gosh! you can't fucking shut it for a bloody second!".

"Now listen we are going to Washington this night I have your fucking passport, get your fucking gadgets, files and whatever the fuck you might need. then meet me and B downstairs in ten!".

P hardly curse everyone knows that so, when she does everyone knows there is som'In big going on and Spencer knows it too.

"Ok " she says, but P didn't even hear her because she had long disconnected the line. Spence just excused herself told her assistance to call shelby who is also a lawyer and knows all about her dos and donts to take over. she will call her for further details and actions .

Spencer went straight to her office gathered her things and prayed in her heart that "is not another storm" coming their way, but her prayer was too late because the storm had already started the proper prayer she would have said were.

"lord give us, B, the strength to beat this already started storm".

They were in their last flight, P had already paid for the remaining 20 seats that were empty, B wouldn't wait and a quarter of a millions dollars wasn't really anything to them. They have the money. If they wanted they can buy the whole damn plane, but they already have private planes anyway B wouldn't want her father to know she was coming. she wanted to take him by surprise so, they had to use the estate they were staying's helicopter to the neighboring state, then take a plane to Abuja the Nigerian capital.

They entered British Airways to Heathrow, London. There were no direct flight to the States Then a friend's private plane to Washington airport. At the airport they took another helicopter to the suburbs when the mansion or rather estate is situated at. By the time the reached P and Spencer were totally beat, but not B. and spencer wasn't sure this was fine. she was having a bad feeling about it.

After spencer entered the car back in Nigeria and they were dropped at the helicopter, she was still in the dark, P hasn't told her nothing, but just by mare looking at B's and P's faces she knew this wasn't a joke. is not one of those topics she had to have her way with. so she just kept quite and kept it together until they landed at Abuja airport. P knew spencer was beside herself she was just holding it up for now. So she just pass her phone to her. That was when she read it. What the trip was about.

At first she laughed out of shock then turns to B and asks.

"Is this some kind of a sick joke?. Common don't tell me you believe this bulshit?!". P and B just looked at her dead in the eye.

"Ok Ok, I will shut my big mouth ok". So she did and for the reminder of the stressful journey none of them said a single word to each other. Words were spoken only when P or spencer needed something to drink or eat to the cabin crew, but not B she didn't touch a single food or drink she just listens to jazz and either look straight or the window and with that Spencer knew 'this storm' will be worse than the first and God save them all...

As they landed on the helipad, Some security guards at the estate in Washington rushed to the helicopter and immediately open the door. No one called in about anyone landing at the estate. Their boss was home he and his wife. whenever B or Akin or Spencer were coming they always gave a heads up.

the doors open they saw B, P and spencer they all straighten up and greeted them. B just waved her hand and started walking towards the main house which is about five kilometers always. One of the security guards called in to a driver to hurriedly come with the mini golf benz car. He came right away, B sat at the front while P and spencer who were walking tiredly and sluggishly, hurriedly entered the back seat before B could order the driver to just leave them there.

Just when B was about opening the doors of the mansion the maid opened it and welcome her cheerfully B just waved her hand and passes she was angry, No she was mad. the guards, maids all loved her, but when she was in one of her moods no one dares cross her not even her idealist autocratic father.

And She was here for him. He must have known it, she knows the bastard already knows this. So, after walking pass Erin the maid she stopped and turns.

"Where is he? " Erin nervously looks at B then answered "in his study ". B moves very fast to the lift press the button and waited. She has often wonder why her father's study was below this floor not on this floor or the other three floors up. She couldn't wait for the lift so after just some few minutes she went to the stairs and ran down like a dog was chasing her. Once she got there she didn't even bother to knock she just opens the door with all her might. She saw her father facing the gardens he knew who it was.

"What the hell father! What the hell is going on?. I know is not me so it has got to be true. Is real isn't it?. He stood for some few seconds as if he was contemplating his next move. He then slowly turns.

"Welcome home Batman, you didn't even tell me you were coming. How is Africa?". He used that name just to indirectly calm the storm. He wanted to seems he was sort of being nice today. Then again asked as if nothing was wrong. He should know better. He knows better.

"I asked you a fucking question!". B wasn't in the mood, He had to be bold.

"Mind your language girl!. we do not talk like that to our elders". He then turned more to his B's left and peeped behind Her, he saw P and spencer standing at her back.

"Hello cat woman, Hello Wonder Woman I can see we lost our manners, we don't greet our elders anymore, the whole A team is here except for Hancock your husband Spencer. So you people just picked up left Nigeria without informing me?. Who did you leave there in charged?" Spencer then spoke up.

"Evening sir, everything is as per planned. Caleb and Shelby are in charge. there is nothing for you to worr..." At this point B who has an anxiety disorder can feel it building. She last took her medicine at the apartment before they left Nigeria. She had had enough, she shouting.

"ENOUGH!" All three had to shake a little.

"Don't you dare try to belittle me or this conversation that hasn't even started. am going to ask you for the last time father. Why didn't you tell me!?". He turns to The garden and answers.

"YES!". B nearly felt down P had to hurriedly hold her then pull a chair for her to sit. Tears started dropping from her eyes she just sat looking at the back of her father she wasn't sure what to even ask so she tried. "How could you keep this from me?. Why would you do such a thing to me?. Am confuse I don't know what to make of it. father please tell me?".

She stood up went to her father while tears of pain, anger,confusion hurt flows down her cheeks. B stood some few inches within his reach and asked again.

"Why didn't you tell me?. I honestly don't understand. I had a twin?. How is that even possible?" He turns quietly towards her.

"It wasn't my intention to keep it from you, I was hurt too when I found out. I wanted to tell you four years ago when I found out. Am sorry I didn't know this was going to happened".

"What the fuck do you mean four years ago!?. Did you hate me this much!? Or her? Who are you?. How come I never knew this? Say something please".

B had turned red with anger no one could face her when she was like that. Even her father was scared inside he just had to be a man at this moment.

"What kind of a father are you!? I need answers and I need them now!". He mans up.

"How dare you raise your voice at me?".

At this point B's eyes were red her forehead lines down to her neck were scarily visible P and spencer had come some inches behind her afraid a fight might break out. Her father calmed his nerves.

"I swear to god I was going to tell you I just didn't know how. I swear I saw her for the first time four years ago when Ian showed me an article in a magazine". B didn't believe him

"OMG! Can u hear your fucking self?. Do you hear the horrible words coming out of your bloody mouth!?". B was shaking spencer was shading tears she didn't know whether to strangle him or shoot this fucker with a gun. P who was also crying quietly, finally spoke.

" I grew up in this fucking house I have known B since she was ten how come I, we never knew about this?".

In all honest Nicklaus McCullers was sorry. he wished he didn't let his ego, pride and hatred for his ex wife Evelyn, clouded his Judgement.

"Is a long story, I will explain all. Am sorry, but the harm has already been done is too late now. I wish I could turn back the clock I would have done things differently".

The pain was too much for B. She was already crying of pain, anger and lost. She straightened herself up and walks closer to her father looks him in the eye for some few second and then Spoke up dangerously slow.

"I hate you, I wish you were the one that died. I never wanna see your face again, ever in my life!". She slowly turns and started walking away. Her father quietly, guiltily speaks.

"There is more".B just stopped. then P hisses and spoke.

"What possibly can be worse than this?". Nicklaus slowly turns and spoke quietly.

"Your mother is alive. She leaves in New York". The room was so quite it was scary.

B stood there which felt like an eternity then suddenly turned fast, ran to her father and gave her him a deadly right hand! Boom!.

Nicklaus McCullers felt back to the floor. B knees right in front of him giving him blows saying.

"No I wish I was the one that died...! I wish I was dead!. Am done with you!"

She stood up walked passed P and spencer who were so shock, glued to the floor. Nicklaus who had a bloody mouth still tries to show he was still the boss.

"Am gonna sue you for this!". B had already left. P walks slowly to him, knelt down and dropped some few tissue papers on his chest and Slowly spoke.

"Can u see Spencer standing perfectly still there?". He looked at Spencer then look back at pru.

"You should be scared of that spence, hell am scared of that Spencer, because that Spencer will eat Mr and Mrs Hastings raw, alive in court. That's if they will agree to still be your lawyers after hearing this god forsaking shit".

She stood up with tears in her eyes pulls Spencer who also had tears in her eyes.

"Let's go spence u have to call Akin home right way". They walked up to call Akin and also to see the plan they were to put in motion for their best friend and colleague who they love and respects so much.
