#EPISODESEVEN

(MY SPECIAL LOVE STORY)

“I came to see my child. Can you excuse us?”. My mother said in the rudest way that she could.

Raymond smiled mischievously at her. Immediately i saw that smile on his face, I knew that he wanted to play an uncalled for prank with my mum. He gasped and walked to place a arm around her neck gutfully. “I can’t believe that i have finally met you!!!My future mother in law!I can’t believe that we are finally meeting in person!!!”.

She pushed him. “Future mother in law? Who is your future mother in law?”.

“You of course”.

She fumed at him. “I don’t want to ever see you with my daughter! Ever! When I saw it in the news, I was thinking that it was not true until I came to confirm that myself”.

I walked towards her. “I was wondering why my so called ‘Mother’ came to visit today because you never even call me or pick my calls, not to talk of visiting. You actually came to stop my relationsh¡p with my boyfriend?”.

“Was that why you turned Elliot down? Because of this thrash?”.

“Thrash? Raymond made his own money without his father’s connections or money, now his company is one of the topmost in the country. You call such person thrash because of your secret cult?”.

“Secret cult? What are you talking about?”.

I glared at her. “Ay Ay Chatapurai”.

She gasped and stepped back. “Who on earth told you about that?”.

Raymond winked at her. “My father is the leader of the group of your rival, the brother of the president’s closest buddy”.

She smiled to herself. “Watch your step”.

“I await”. Raymond smiled as he watched her leave.

I nudged him. “Why did you tell her the truth? They will come for you”.

“We will set a plan between two groups”.

“How do you intend to do that?”.

He whistled. “I will leave my father a note that the Chatapurai Marshall group is after the life of his son. He will send someone to be spying for my safety and they will have their first physical fight”.

I nodded thoughtfully.

He placed a arm around me. “All the love and attention that you didn’t receive from your parents, I promise to give it to you”.

Tears filled my eyes. “This is the first time I have seen someone this concerned about me”.

He placed his forehead on my forehead. “This is just the beginning”.

Mr Anderson fumed as soon as he saw the message that was sent, threatening his son’s life. “How dare Chatapurai Marshall think of threatening my son’s life? My only child???”.

Dominic nodded thoughtfully. “It is because of the relationsh¡p between them. We need to stop their relationsh¡p”.

“Linda Justice is also a known writer. She is also going to participate in the writing competition with the daughter of Craig David. Recommend her for your son since he is interested in writers”. Dominic suggested.

Mr Anderson nodded thoughtfully. “The only way I can recommend her for my son is if she wins that competition. Let us do everything to make her win that competition so that Raymond’s mind will be diverted”.

Dominic nodded. “I heard that it was immediately Rita Anabel David won the award that Raymond fell in love with her. It will definitely work with Linda once she wins this tomorrow’s competition”.

“We shall manipulate tomorrow’s competition”.

“Ay Ay Betoi???”.

“Ay Ay Chatapurai!!!”.

He walked into his big room and noticed that someone had entered.

He had never allowed anyone, not even the maids to enter his room so that, that way he will know when anyone sneaks into the room.

No one knew about his real identity.

Everyone believed him to be an ordinary rich man.

But who knew that he had red belt in martial arts?

Who knew that he owned the secret spy cult, ‘Evangel’ that has always been leaking the information of the president?

He was the almighty Raymond Anderson.

He steadied his legs on the floor as he heard the person pull out a dagger and walk towards him from behind.

He didn’t turn.

He focused on the window.

Immediately the person was close enough, he grabbed the hand of the person and sliced it with the same dagger the person was holding.

He took off the mask of the person and called his men to carry him to their hideout.

“Take a video of the criminal and send the tape to Ay Ay Chatapurai group”.

He smiled to himself. “My father doesn’t take care of me, I, Raymond Anderson take care of myself by myself”.

After I was done with my book, I sh¡pped it over to the head of competitors and after they had examined it along with the work of others, the winner of the writing competition was announced.

It was not me this time.

It was Linda Justice.

Linda Justice had never won any award.

How could she win over me?

Who was this Linda Justice?

There was suddenly a knock on my door.

Who was at the door?

Raymond and my parents had the key to my house.

It was definitely someone else.

Who was at the door when I was grieving over my first loss case?

Myra was still drying the clothes in the washing machine so I decided to open the door.

It was the Linda Justice.

She smiled and waved at me. “Hi Rita Anabel David! We finally meet! Can I come in?”
