  "You guys are late!. Where were you both all day?" Lola sported a quizzical face to Collins and Michael who sauntered into the house. Looking tattered and their faces overgrown with stress."Stop acting like our mother." Collins retorted in a weakly voice while they wobbled to their bedroom."You guys don't look good, what happened?" She queried again but none of them bothered to answer."Leave them." Theodore voiced beside her. "They were probably up to no good and it backfired on them."She heaved a sigh before turning in Ariel's direction. Who busied herself watching The Big Bang theory. Then she joined Theodore at the dining."Thank you for the food, Lola." He solem

• The Paranormals   Chapter 17 - Marcus's Failure

  Marcus hummed to a musical note that played in his head. He was in the Adelade's art gallery. With a smile that defined the divinity within him. He studied the painting until his eyes fell on Mr. Williams. The same man who had offered him a chance to play in Dé Deluxe Piano Concerto. A famous concert every instrumentalists dreams to play in. All thanks to Doctor Roberts too, who had specifically invited them to the Metz Gala. Although the Metz Gala had paved a way in his career, he was still puzzled as to why Doctor Roberts had invited them."Mr. Williams!" He greeted with faint excitement booming in his voice as he approached the Senator. Moderately guarded by icy looking men dressed in suits. They held him back sharply."Marcus I believe?" The Senator responded quizzically with a tiny smile complementing his face.

  "The Metz Gala is one of the most respected occasion in the world. So brace yourselves for glamour and several dignitaries."The Trainer stated in a stern voice as their Black Limousine threaded the path to the venue. But all Lola could comprehend under the blue lights was the beauty of how everyone looked. They were all dressed in perfectly tailored black suits and she found Trevor most charming. The sternness imprinted on his face just seemed to be in perfect harmony with his outfit. Perhaps due to her first time seeing him in something different made her react this way, she still loved the feeling regardless."So what are these?" Collins who was rightly seated beside her tousled her thoughts with his question. Only then did she notice the assortments of contact lens that had appeared on the table amidst them."This," The Trainer pronounced as he picked a blue contact lens, raising the object midair. "Is a na

  "--And on to international news." The anchor pitched eloquently from the TV. Lola slowly paused in cleaning the glassy mess, Collins had caused."Another spark of protests is ongoing in Area X due to mutant cases uprising in the continent. The joint medical association of the continent has also embarked on an indefinite strike stating Mayor Brooks refusal in accepting their conditions--" Lola heaved a sigh while the TV lucidly displayed massive protests ongoing in several districts. Her cheery countenance easily dampened as she envisioned the kind of disheartening status Area X would be in for the coming weeks. The door suddenly opened with the Trainer emerging. His face full of smiles and his uniform not holding it's accustomed weapons. But that bright countenance morphed into a frown as his eyes fell on the TV."Service! Play us a nice relaxing movie." He ordered in an overly hoarse voice as he shut t

  2020LAGOS,UNILAGThe black smokes that lingered, the ringing tone that blared in his ear, and the pain was enough to jolt Collins awake. His body were covered in dust and concretes that crashed from the neighbouring walls and roofs. As he staggered to his stance, his shiny red matriculation gown were now tattered, his ankles were sprained and several cuts spread from his forehead to other parts of his body. His eyes darted around the now collapsed building. This was Jelili Adebisi Omotola centre, a bright hall that contained bright lights with happy people chattering for joy. An hall he was celebrating his matriculation ceremony alongside others. But everything transformed into an unprecedented disaster. An explosion raked the building. He gasped in fear as his hazy vision displayed lifeless bodies of his friends scattered across the vast building. His eyes then str

  "How did you find me here?" Lola quietly asked when he finally relieved her off his warmth. They were under the cold morning now, still dimly and serene."I observed you've been working extra hours since two weeks ago." He responded while he trailed beside her in his accustomed glorious black uniform. But this time, he wasn't heavily loaded with weapons."You usually leave the gym around six in the evening when in fact our working hours ends by four. And then, by six in the morning you're back at the gym." He explained. She nodded whilst struck in a limbo if to appreciate his detailed explanation or react otherwise for being stalked."You're working hard, Lola." He sounded again. "More than the others but trust me, the body sometimes needs rest."
