Mystery of Amanda’s death 6
Final part

Not all angels wear white neither do all demons wear black. My latest experience thought me better on that ideology. Mr Andrew was a gentle person, nice and always smiling, jovial with everyone and takes life simple , Amanda was the perfect definition of the perfect daughter, smart, brilliant ,diligent and respectful . If all that was revealed didn’t happen in front of me, I might have had a hærd time believing it really happened, especially the part where Mr Andrew and Thomas disappeared in front of me, and were also pulled out of the ground by the herbalist/officer Elijah. It was ironical how someone name Elijah performed such trick, instead of commanding chariot of fire from heaven, he was pulling out two grown men out of the ground.

I was happy I was released after I fainted, my body couldn’t contain the shock again, that was why I passed out. On returning home, I stumbled across Amanda’s journal, a journal that was meant to reveal everything that happened, the key to unlocking how she died and the reason it happened.

Amanda’s journal
{ I used to be a young innocent loving girl before the worst happened, my dad was my world , I loved him more than anyone, he was the best father, his love towards me was unending and he was also the best husband to my mom, loving and caring, but all this changed three years ago when I came back from school earlier than I used to. Our proprietress died so school was shut down for that day.

I didn’t return home at once but followed my bestfriend home, it was past eleven before I decided to return home. On getting back to my street, I saw my dad’s car past beside me, beside him was uncle Thomas and at the back seat was my mom, she look kinda unconscious but they didn’t see me.

I thought they’re going out and thought nothing to be wrong as I head home.

On opening the door, I head straight to my parent’s room so that I can relax on their soft king size bed. On entering,I saw my mom’s phone on the floor beside the bed, I picked it up and saw that it was on recording.

I thought it was an error as I tried to discard the recording but my little finger mistakenly clicked on save and the recording was saved at once. I wanted to delete it before I started going through through the phone. Though I also had my own smartphone but I always derive a hidden joy in going through my mom’s phone.

I decided to hear the record before I delete it and what I heard was my mom’s voice.

” Please Andrew, don’t do this to me ” my mom was pleading with someone who I thought was my dad.

” I’ve got to do this dear ” I heard my dad’s voice say.

” Our child can’t be sold ,I can’t allow it, I won’t allow you to take my kid from me ” my mom yelled at him.

” We’re talking about one hundred million naira here dear, we’re going to give birth to another one ” my dad said trying to calm her down.

” No I can’t allow it, I’ve been overlooking your line of work because I love you but if you hurt my baby, I’ll scre-m to the world about you and all your evil deed ” my mom threatened.

” I already promised you dear that the baby will be retrieved from you without you getting hurt but it seems you want it the hærd way ” my dad said and all I heard next was a muffled scre-ming.

” hello Thomas, come down to my house right now ” I heard dad said after the muffled scre-m had died down.

I refused to believe what I heard, I replayed it again and it was the same thing, I let the recording play the remaining minutes and through it ,I heard when uncle Thomas came in and my dad told him that they’ll have to take my unconscious mom to the abattoir.

I kept on replaying the recording as I expected the return of my mom. I slept off and was woken up by a gentle tap on my back. I opened my eye to see uncle Thomas. He delivered the news to me that my mom and dad were involved in an accident, only my dad scaped through and is in the hospital while my mom exploded along with the car that Summersault into the forest.

I knew at once that it was a lie but played along. I wept and visited my dad at the hospital. I wanted to report him to the police but I love my dad too much to do it, and my mom’s phone suddenly got missing,so there was no evidence.

It was hærd taking what happened , my dad killed my mom to sell my baby brother. Scan already showed it was a boy. I was too young to swallow such incident, I started losing interest in everything, school and everyone and that was when I got myself entangled with the black sisters. They saw potential in me , they trained and initiated me. I became a weapon to them, I had my first kill at age 13 and two years later, my count was one hundred and twenty one. My brutality and disguise act earned me the position of the queen.

But the h0le in my heart didn’t get heal, I was only distracting myself with my kills . I felt I needed to get revenge for my mom but I couldn’t bring myself to hurt my dad. I already investigated him and found out that he’s involved in everything that lead to death. He kidnap, kill, sell body parts on black market and also for ritualists.

The only way I can get him to pay for killing mom was through the law but there was no evidence to do that. He’s always clean and thorough with his operation.

The only way I can get him is to cause a confusion between him and his right hand uncle Thomas, I’m not sure how I’ll do it but I sure know I’m framing a suicide as murder.

What would pain my dad most is losing me, and thinking he did to the brutality of his right hand, it’s gonna be brutal. Only my death will unravel the hidden secrets and I’m happy to go.
No one should cry for me, I’m not a saint either.

” So it was even a suicide ” I said with a hiss as I closed the journal.

I’m not taking any journal to anywhere, if they like they solve the case, if they like they shouldn’t. My eye has seen enough already , I’ll go and use Badagry beach water to rinse it when I get home.

The end
