(CRIMINAL LOVE)
Final Episode (24 & 25)
Written by author Nath
Heading: New President.
The tyres of her car rotated like a putter’s wheel, expertly driving like James Bond on the road. The evidence of this could be heard from the friction between the road and the tyres. That was sheriff, running home to confirm her children whom report had shown that they’ve been kidnapped. She pulled over in front of her house; a portable bungalow. She rushed out in her uniform.
“Cyndi!! Benjamin!!” she was yelling their names, running towards the door at the same time. She stumbled, nearly to fall, but strongly withheld it like a trained personnel in the force. Violently, she barged into the house, yelling their names and opening the children’s rooms. The sound of the doors when pushed were like the sound of fireworks on Christmas eve. She could see the house tattered and her maid crying on the floor of the living room. The young girl wore a native gown which stopped at the knee.
“Where are my children?!” she asked her.
“They’ve been taken, ma’am.” The girl replied in tears.
“By who? How did they look like?!”
“They look like you” she pointed at her from the floor.
The woman became confused. “Like me?”
“They were putting on your type of uniform.” The girl clarified for more confusion on sheriff’s head..

The sun had begun to rise. It reflected on the empty building where Ada and Murphy took refuge. The young boy, after showing Ada the ch¡p, turned to a window through which the ray of the sun refracted into the building.
However, Ada, leaving her story behind; how her father tried to kill her and Stephen being her brother, all she wanted at the moment was Murphy to reconcile with teacher or get the ch¡p back to him. She didn’t know how to convince him to do that, so she became restless, flinging her hands and tapping her feet to the hearing of Murphy who had already turned his back on her, enjoying the vitamin D the early morning sun radiated. Suddenly, Ada calmed down. She gazed, slowly walking to him. She wore a polo over a short skirt. Her hair remained intact exposing her African beauty catalized by her dimples.
She slowly put her hands round Murphy’s wa-ist from behind and rested her head on his back as if it was a posture for pre-wedding picture. “Thank you for saving me, Murphy.” She whispered almost rom-ntically.
The boy turned with her hands still wrapping his wa-ist. Both stared into each other eyes, moved by the force of attraction between magnet of different poles. Therefore, they gradually began to k-ss. In the process, Ada collected the ch¡p from his pocket.
Murphy grabbed her buttocks systematically, feeling his er-cted d*ck on her skirt as the k-ss went on.
Ada quit. “Murphy, I’m sorry. I didn’t know what came over me.” she said.
“Is okay, Ada” he car-ssed her check.
“Will you reconcile with teacher?”
Murphy kept quiet, still car-ssing her.
“Please, I want you to.” She added in a pleading voice. Yet, Murphy didn’t say anything. She disengaged from him and stepped back. “I’ll like to talk to them. I want to go meet them at the police station.” She concluded.
Murphy exhaled. “Judas betrayed Jesus with a k-ss. Do you know that, Ada?” He asked cleverly which rendered the girl speechless. “You can go with it, but be careful. Tell teacher I’m sorry.” he added and turned his back on her again.
Ada knew he caught her. So she didn’t know whether to leave or apologize. Nevertheless, she began to walk out. Just at the door, Murphy called her, “Ada”
She turned.
“Obi loves you.. so much.” he told her.
The girl didn’t say anything. She finally left briskly. Murphy smiled for a reason best known to him.

At the resident of Mr Cliff, Cynthia laid asleep on a bed in a room. On her leg was a white bandage. She did not only look sick but relaxed too as if she was at home.
Mr Cliff kept staring at her through a door like one whose child is at the point of death. The wife had left, leaving them all along in the house. Suddenly, a knock came and the doctor walked in. She was a middle aged woman with medicated eye glasses.
“Welcome, doctor.” Mr Cliff offered her a seat. “What’s the result?”
“It matched” Her voice trailed. “She has your gene.” she clarified, handing the result to him.
The man sat up after confirming it. “You mean she’s my daughter?”
“Yes, sir.”
The man finally stood up thoughtfully. “I felt it.” he murmured, going back to the door to have a good look at her again.
“How did it happen, sir?” The doctor’s s€×y voice called him back, therefore he looked at her.
“It’s a long story. The mother is dead.” He began to walk back to the chair. “She got pregnant for me and I denied it. I never saw her again. A few years later, I heard she was dead but I never knew what happened to the pregnancy.” he sat down.
“If you had accepted your responsibility, I think the mother would have still be alive.” The doctor blamed him. “All the same, fate has brought her to you. Shower her with love.” she stood up and left.

Ada walked into the police station. She was granted permission to see teacher. One could see a police officer leading her to the room. Immediately she entered, they locked the door. Teacher stared at her including her fellow orphans. They were more than surprise and happy to see her especially Obi who called, “Ada?”
She looked at him, remembering Murphy’s statement but didn’t say anything. She walked to teacher and stretched the ch¡p to him.
“Murphy said that he’s sorry.” She broke the silence. “I’m sorry too.” She looked at others. “To you all. Murphy has explained everything to me. He also saved me from my father.”
Teacher collected the ch¡p from her. “Murphy can’t give you this easily. He has another interior motive.” he said.
Ada remained quiet.
“Where is he?” Teacher asked her. Before she replied, sheriff barged into the police station, ignoring the salute greetings of her men until she met teacher again in the presence of the kids in the room.
“Give me the devices” she ordered.
“What we have here is an empty circuit. The ch¡p where the information is has gone!” Teacher explained.
“They have my children! Give it to me like that!”
“No, unless you set us free.” Teacher objected. The kids sensed something especially inquisitive Judith.
Sheriff leaned closer to him with a lower voice. “How do you expect me to do that? Don’t you know that I don’t run this office alone?”
“I don’t care how you do it, Magi” Teacher insisted. He looked at his children to see some like Obi and Vivian smiling coz they had an idea of what his plans was. Just then, sheriff’s personal phone ran again. Quickly, she picked it.
“You have five minutes to bring the devices here otherwise your children die.” A voice warned on the phone.
“Please, tell me the location” sheriff demanded in a hurry. After a two seconds she brought down the phone, staring at teacher the same way he did thereby generating quietness.
“Fine, follow me. All of you” she commanded.
Teacher raised his hand up for her to see the cuff which means that it needed to be unlocked first. She turned to the kids to see theirs slightly up too just like their teacher. Sheriff shook her head exhaustively then began to uncuff them one by one. She led them out of the police station to let them go with the suitcase already in her hand, but Jerry, her second in command pulled her to a corner.
“What do you think you’re doing, sheriff?”
“Taking them to the white house. It’s an order from the government.” she replied.
“Didn’t hear of such a thing.”
Sheriff didn’t know what to say again. Already, teacher and his kids had ignored reporters who clustered them for news and information then drove away on a public vehicle.
Jerry saw tears rolling down from sheriff’s ears. “They have my kids” she cried. “Please, let me go.” she rushed out. Jerry quickly understood what was going on.

The tyres of her car rotated like a putter’s wheel, expertly driving like James Bond on the road. The evidence of this could be heard from the friction between the road and the tyres. That was sheriff, running to the location given to her. She pulled over at none residential area, stepped out with the box and began to run in,side a forest until she saw her children being held by two gunmen.
“Stop there!” One of them exclaimed.
Sheriff stopped. She looked back to see another two men behind her at gunpoint.
“Keep the box on the ground!” the same voice ordered.
She did as he said, stepping away from it. “Please, don’t hurt my children!” she added.
The men took the suitcase and pushed her children to her. Before she could get to hold them, the men disappeared.

However, teacher and co had transferred to their limo, stopped at a particular building where all settled in a room. Teacher made all of them to sit on a large bed including Ada. He stood before them, walking to and fro.
“Teacher, the kidnappers are not from the government, are they?” Dave asked.
Teacher stood at a s₱0t. “I’m beginning to rejoice that you’ve started reasoning like me. Of course they’re not. They are my men. It was a way to get us out.” He replied.
They smiled.
“What I’m wondering is Murphy’s next plan coz he can’t give out the ch¡p so easily.” He looked at Ada. “Tell me Ada, how did you get this ch¡p?”
“I stolel it from him, but he called me Judas. He knew I had it but allowed me to go with it.” The poor girl replied.
“Something is fishy. Murphy is smart. He has an interior motive why he let you have it.” Teacher began to think. Just then, a knock came at the door. When he went to check on the person, Obi stood up and hugged Ada while others smiled.
“We’re so happy to have you back.” He said.
“E don do!” Vivian pushed him away amusingly then hugged her too. The girl felt loved and happy too.
Teacher turned to them with the suitcase.
“Teacher, the brain buster!!” Obi hailed him.
“But one more thing.” Daniella began sadly. “What about Cynthia? Nobody knows where she is.”
“But she knows where she is, even you should have an idea.” Teacher replied,
“Mr Cliff’s. Thats the only place she knows.” She figured it out.
“So what next?” Judith asked.
“To make a revolution by pressing the action button.” Teacher call a special journalist who came with all his equipment…

The city was at its daily activities, people going about their work. One could see traffic and street broadcasting television. Suddenly, teacher Nwachukwu appeared on the television. His appearance alone, got the attention of everyone. He cleared his throat zealously and spoke with anger and alacrity!
“More than eighteen years ago, lives were lost, our children missing and tears of agony ran down through our eyes. This is the handiwork one of those in the government starting from Mr Yinka.
We’re suffering now because of these same people who have no atom of love and pity for us all. It pains me!!
They slaughtered our children for rituals, still killing their relatives for the same purpose. It’s time we rise up and revenge for the lives of our dear children! This is the evidence.” He played the video and explained each scene including the number readings. That turned the city upside down. People riously moved against the government with all kinds of weapons even the police. Though lives were lost in the process, but the politicians in quote never went scott free.
*******
Mr and Mrs Cliff were watching the riot live from their television when Cynthia came out with crutches. The husband had already showed and explained to the wife about the DNA result. She had no problem about it
“What’s going on?” Cynthia asked from behind.
The couple turned. “Your teacher has exposed the government.” The husband replied.
Cynthia limped to the front. She could see people distroying properties and getting hold of a particular politician who was beaten to death instantly.
“Come and sit” Mrs Cliff tapped a s₱0t beside her.
She sat down, placing the crutches beside her. She looked at them. “Thank you for your hospitality.” she oblige.
The man of the house brought out the result and showed her.
“What’s this?” she reluctantly took it and began to read, after which she looked up at them in disbelief.
“We’ve been looking for the fruit of the womb.” Mr Cliff began. “But the moment you stepped foot into this house with your friends, my wife conceived. Something always attracted me to you so I had to run the test..” he explained everything to her.
Cynthia started shedding tears. “How was my mother like?” she asked in tears.
“You’re her replica my dear. Please, forgive me.” Mr Cliff pleaded emotionally thereby increasing the girl’s tears.
****
On the other hand, Ada had gone to the resident of Stephen to save him and the mother. Already the father had been killed at the white house.
“Follow me!” she had told them immediately he entered.
“I need to know if Stephanie is okay!” Stephen demanded.
“She will be, let’s go!” she dragged him by the hand.
**********
A week later, the bad people were wiped out and a new president and other executives were needed coz it was a presidential system contrasts with a parliamentary system of government where the head of government comes to power by gaining the confidence of an elected legislature. One could see teacher and his kids sitting before legislatures on a long table to deliberate on the way forward except Murphy and Cynthia.
“I’ve groomed my kids on how to pilot the affairs of this country.” Teacher began. “Not only that, we all know the risk they took to bring this revolution. So if i must say, I can give you one of the best of them.”
“Sorry, Nwachukwu, we’ve already elected a president” the legislature said.
“Who?”
“Murphy Nwachukwu, one of your children too”
Just then, Murphy came out to their midst well dressed on cooperate: a well ironed senator with an Italian shoe. On his wrist was a golden watch too. He appeared rich and different with a hand in,side one of his pockets.
Teacher couldn’t believe it!! Likewise other kids that stood up surprisingly when they saw him.
“Murphy?” Teacher called out.
“It’s me teacher. I’ve outsmarted you again, haven’t I?” Murphy took a step forwards to him like a motivational speaker. “How do you feel now that your brain has been used? I know you’re eager to know how I did it. I’ll tell you…” he began…

FLASH BACK
Murphy rushed into the house of the legislature with the ch¡p after being attacked by teacher’s gunmen. He stood before the old man in his living room.
“Who are you?” the man asked him.
“The new president.” Murphy replied.
“Are you out of your mind, young boy?!” The man sat up.
“No, sir. I’m speaking in future tense. I have evidence of our problem in this country. It can brings revolution. This is it?” he showed him the ch¡p.
“How?”
“Get me a video camera, I’ll play it for you.”
The man did as he said. After watching it and explained by Murphy, he became marvelled but the sight of the content.
“Promise to elect me as the next president when I bring him down with this coz we run parliamentary system of government.”
“You have my words if you can do this.” The man concluded…
:
:
CONTINUITY
“So, I used you to do the suffering by yourself by making the broadcast while I gain the end result.” Murphy concluded.
Teacher became dumbfounded likewise others.
Murphy closely walked to him, staring into his eyes. Gradually, he knelt down before him.
“I know I’ve wrong you teacher, forgive me. I did this to prove to you that we’re smart enough to handle your plans. You don’t need to test, teach or study us anymore. I do not want to become president. It’s for you, not me, teacher.” he confessed bitterly. “I’m sorry for lying to you all.” he apologized to his fellow orphans.
Teacher looked at them to see them nodding. He turned to Murphy.
“Truly, there’s no one fitted for the seat except you.” He pulled him up. “Take care of your siblings.” he added.
Murphy hugged him. “Thank you, teacher.”
Others came and hugged him too. Of course he was told about Cynthia and her new family.
———————————–
Obi and Ada got along, likewise Stephen and Stephenie even Judith and Dave. They were all living big at young age. That was teacher’s aim and he achieved that and died months later.
