Trisha
Me: its Abby… She got Emily… She got Emily
I yelled while running down stairs. Dad was up and on his phone… Henry was sitting with his head hurried in his hands. They both looked up at me.
Dad: who is Abby…

Me: some girl who wants money from Henry… He has been threatening me the wh0le weekend and I didn’t take her seriously. I should have told told you but I thought she was harmless.

Dad: calm down Trisha… How do you know its her.

Me: she just sent me a threat about going to the police.

Dad: you were not going to go police anyway. Here full name.

Henry: Abigail Tlhalefang.
Dad went back to his phone.
Dad: yes its a little girl named Abigail Tlhalefang…. Capture her and force her to tell the truth. Don’t kill her… Tell me when you have her.
He hung up. And looked at us. Then I suddenly remembered about the incident that happened years ago with Mrs Tyson’s last born.
Me: oh my God… Henry how is your mother taking this.

Henry: I don’t know… She fainted for like 5 minutes then went to lock herself in her room.

Me: how is Zenzie

Henry: he is fine… He just sustained some minor injuries the doctors said he needed to rest until the swelling on his head is fine.

Me: is he fired.

Henry: I don’t know.

Me: let’s go to your house.

Henry: okay.
My phone rang as we were on the way. Private number… Abby. I put on loud speaker.
Abby: Mrs Tyson… Are you ignoring me.

Me: Abigail if you touch my child you are going to regret it.

Abby: (laughs) are you threatening me? You know I could murder your child and kill myself… How will I regret it then.
I felt my heart jump a bit… I looked at Henry he looked like he was about to blow up. Tears stang in my eyes but I held myself and blinked them in.
Me: Abigail don’t touch my child.

Abby: your attitude has dropped… Thats an improvement but I want you to beg.

Me: please don’t hurt my child.

Abby: good girl… Now about the money.

Me: okay… We will pay you.

Abby: I want the money by the end of the day.

Me: are you…. Listen we can’t withdraw that much money all at once we need time.

Abby: you are a Tyson… You will figure it out.

Me: please… Give us some more time… We will give find money… Just give us some more time.

Abby: okay… By 4am tomorrow money.

Me: why do you always contact me.

Abby: because you are his wife… He listens to you.
She hung up… This time when I looked at him… He was swearting. I really wanted to speak to him but I held my tongue. I recieved a photo from Abby with a message. “This should make you hurry up” I looked at the photo. It was Emily… Her eyes were closed and her forehead was bloody. What did she do to her? I just couldn’t hold my tears anymore I burst into a cry. Henry took my phone and looked at the photo. He increased the speed.
Me: you just had to… You see what you have done… This is all your fault.

Henry: I know and I am sorry.

Me: if anything happens to Emily I will never forgive you.

Henry: I am going to kill her.
I fell silent and looked forward. When we arrived everyone was in the living room except the kids. There was another lady whom I haven’t seen before. I looked Mrs Tyson she wasn’t here her husband also wasn’t here. The stranger lady stood up.
Lady: Is this the mother of the child?

Me: yes…
The Lady shook her head in disapproval but I couldn’t careless.
Henry: Kgadi… Good evening.

Kgadi: good day…

Henry: this is my wife Trisha… Trisha… This is my dad’s sister…
Didn’t you guys break ties?
Me: what is she doing here…?

Kgadi: even though we have broken ties… Jerry will always be our family and we will step in to help when he is trouble.

Henry: in case you don’t know… Jerry is my father’s name.

Danny: I don’t think thats a good idea.

Sam: I agree with you.

Leonard: exactly… Who told you that Henry’s child is missing.

Kgadi: I have always been looking over you.

Leonard: yeah we don’t care… Please leave. I think we all know why you are here.

Danny: leornad is right… Please leave.

Kgadi: your family has problem…

Sam: which do not involve you.
It was my first time to ever see this brothers this serious. This guys hærdly talk. This must be the aunt who caused all the damage done to their mother. “Get out of my house kgadi” the voice came from the stairs. It was Mr Tyson… And he was coming down with his wife. She looked like she has been crying a lot. Red swollen eyes and she sniffed a lot… Her nose was blocked.
Kgadi: we have been waiting for you Jerry…

Mr Tyson: waiting for me to what?

Kgadi: we waited for you to come home and apologise… Then we will take you back.. Thats all mom wanted.

Mr Tyson: apologise… Excuse me you are the one who went nuts on my wife… When she has done nothing.

Kgadi: brother… That wife of yours… Is pure bad luck…

Mr Tyson: well I don’t care… I love her and she loves me, she gave me a family she took care of me and my children and she tolerated any shit I made her go through… So I don’t care if she is bad luck… I am not leaving my wife… Now get the f-ck out of my house.

Kgadi: your family needs help… The second child has gone missing in this family again.

Mr Tyson: you want to blame it on my wife?

Kgadi: she made you leave your family…. You even changed your surname because of her. That is the why she is cursed. you know that bad luck will always follow her around…
Henry held me close and i leaned on his shoulders all the other wives were sitted besides their husband looking completely clueless and out of place. Tears poured from mrs Tyson’s eyes and she was losing balance… Mr Tyson held her close to him and she gently pushed him away.
Mrs Tyson: you are right Kgadi… Pulling Jerry from your family was the biggest mistake I ever made… I am willing to do anything to rectify that mistake. What do I have to do?
Her voice was completely weak and sloshed. I felt my heart tear into pieces. This strong woman has a weakness. I took a deep breath. Kgadi smiled.
Kgadi: we are going to do a traditional cleansing of your wh0le family. Jerry and his family is going to change the surname back to Nkwe. Which is your rightful surname. Then Jerry is going to apologise and you two are going to divorce.
Me: what!

Leonard: dad are you going to let this happen.
The door banged open and Zenzele entered he was a mess. Still dressed in hospital clothes.
Leonard: Zenzele… Go to your room we will be with you after this discussion.

Zenzele: yes… You will always be with me from now on and my parents are not divorcing.

Leonard: what are you talking about?
Everyone turned to look at him.
Zenzele: I would like to apologise before I start explaining anything. When I came here I didn’t think any of you will accept me so I decided to become your driver… It seemed like the only way to get close to you.

Kgadi: excuse me who are you?

Sam: our driver… Zenzele can you please excuse us.

Zenzele: I don’t think I was ever going to come out of the closet but when I came here and stood behind that closed door I heard my mother being showered with hurtful words… I heard my mother sacrificing her own happiness which could possibly be because of me.

Henry: stop talking in riddles and get to the point.

Zenzele: I grew up without parents… I started searching for them a month ago and I learned that I was stolen from St Mariam hospital by some woman on the 30th May… 22 years ago so they revealed who my parents are and I was shocked by the answer.
I think I am shocked by this revelation. Mrs Tyson covered her mouth in shock.
Mr Tyson: Do you mean…

Mrs Tyson: you’re my son?

Zenzele: I actually came here to talk about that not to ask for a job.

Mrs Tyson: you mean you are my Tyson…

Zenzele: yes I am a Tyson.

Mr Tyson: actually we had named you after my great grandfather Tyson.

Kgadi: Hey what the hell is happening here… So a driver comes here and claims to be your son then you will believe him.

Mr Tyson: we will do a DNA…
I stood up.
Me: I am not sure what is happening here but in case you have forgotten… My daughter is missing and some nutty woman wants a million dollars for her.

Zenzele: and that is why I ran away from the hospital… So that I can help… But this woman here seems concerned about destroying this family than Emily.
I left them and went to the kitchen to drink some water. So much drama for one day. My dad called me.
Me: Dad… Did you find her… Where is she… She said by 4am tomorrow we should have the money.

Dad: we almost had her… She escaped.

Me: oh dad… Its killing me.

Dad: I know but we are onto her.

Me: please hurry… Its getting late… Its almost 8.
I hung up and almost emmidiately I receive a call from Abby…
Me: hello…

Abby: you think you are smart… So you send your father after me.

Me: how did you know that its my father.

Abby: I have my ways… So you want to see what I can do to your lovely Emily

Me: what no….
She hung up and I received a video emmidiately. Emily was tied to a chair and she was awake. She blinked rapidly and she wanted to cry.
Emily: are you going to kill me?
She asked then I saw Abby’s face and she looked so evil… She grinned and the video showed her hand… She was pointing a gun at Emily. I wanted to scre-m my heart was pounding. Emily was so scared. She pulled the trigger and I scre-med only to notice that she shot the wall behind Emily. Henry and Zenzele came in running and I showed them the video.
Zenzele: call her back and tell her that we got the money.

Me: but we have no money…

Henry: just do it… We have a plan.
Oh they made a plan… Together? I grabbed my phone and dialed the number.
Abby: did you get the message.

Me: there is no reoson for you to traumatize the child… Please untie her… We are coming with the money.

Abby: good girl.

Me: untie her… And put her in a comfortable please.

Abby: I will send you the details of my whereabouts…
And with that she hang up. I called my dad.
Dad: Trisha…

Me: stop following her around… She will hurt Emily.

Dad: how will we get her then.

Me: we are going to her. I will send you the details of the place she is at.

Dad: good girl.
I hung up as the message entered.
Me: the old abandoned dawn guest house behind the community mall.
Mr Tyson came down stairs with a big bag. Then gave Zenzele, Henry and Leonard some guns.
Me: um… Father… I am also going… She only contacts me. I need a gun.

Mr Tyson: women can’t handle guns.
Really? I stole Henry’s gun from his jacket and stuffed it in my handbag.
It was quiet all the way… We arrived and went to the guest house. It was silent and dark.
Me: hello…
A man in black suits came and led us to the pool side. She was at the other side of the pool and I couldn’t see Emily.
Abby: Mrs and Mr Tyson and the other Tyson… Oh and Zenzie… Baby.
Zenzele looked at us. What do you owe her?

Me: Zenzie… Its a long story…

Abby: and we got no time where is the money?

Me: in the bag… Where is Emily?

Abby: she is at the roof.

I looked up and Emily was being held over the edge by one of this man in black clothes.
Me: you sick person… Bring my child down.

Abby: tell your brother in law to bring me the money…
My heart jumped I knew that they were not holding any money.
Me: no… Bring my child down now…

Abby: mrs Tyson… Are you bargaining with me.

Me: call it whatever you want… I want my child down… Or I will burn this bag now. I took out a lighter from Henry’s jacket.

Abby: good bargain… But now I am pissed so I am going to tell him to drop Emily down… Into the pool… Unless you give me the money now.
Henry searched his jacked… I think for the gun then he cursed under his breath. I took a breath of relief. He wanted to take a stupid step which could lead to the death of his child.
Abby: Trisha… I want you to bring the money.
I took the money from leonard and walked to her side then gave her the bag. She opened the bag and I was so nervous. She smiled… Is there real money in there? She zipped the bag.
Abby: Nice doing business with you… Follow me. Hey bring the child to me.
The guy who was holding Emily disappeared. I felt a wave of relief rushing through me. I am going to take my child. I beamed as i followed her in,side. She closed the door and locked it then two big guys came and held me and tied my hands behind my back. She threw the money on the floor… They really had money on the bag.
Me: what is this…

Abby: I know fake money when I see it. You are useless and I need the money so those punks will get me the money… I got their Henry’s wife and child.
Me: you son of a bitch.

Abby: and you are going to pay for trying to trick me.
I tried to scre-m but they stuffed a cloth in my mouth and put a solutape over my mouth. The other man scooped me over his shoulder and went out through the back door…
