CHAPTER 109

The game began with side kicks. Although Lady Nana accepted to be the referee, she was afraid that somebody was going to get hurt in the process.

The fight went on till Martin finally fell on the ground which astonished him. He immediately stood up gathering lots of courage in order to defend himself but Lady Nana suddenly stopped him. 

" The kick on session is off. You can both go and drink water.  Then we will go on head kick. This means one of us will turn mad due to the fact that the they do not want to loose" said Lady Nana as Martin and Tere left to the house to drink water.

Akeshia came out of the house at that instant and decided to use the chance to speak to Lady Nana. She felt that what Martin was doing was wrong and would put his life in danger.

" I am very worried about my son. I am begging you to declare him the winner so that the fight will stop and the people of the closer gates will also live peacefully without fear. Are you going to do that?" Asked Akeshia filled with lots of worries.

" No Akeshia! This is the path that they both chose and they must fulfill it. I am not going to end this fight till we get a winner. I know you are doing and saying this to protect your son but I will not buy it. Do you get me?" Said Lady Nana in a commanding voice which astonished Akeshia.

Akeshia immediately left the meeting square and went inside the house. She was astonished when she saw Martin hiting his arm on the wall. He was angry that Tere won the first round yet she was a lady. Akeshia tried to stop Martin but Martin did not want to stop. He never liked to be defeated. 

After a few minutes, both Tere and Martin went back to meeting square and continued to fight with each other. Akeshia decided to still watch them from a distance since she was afraid that Martin was going to get hurt. Luckily, they tied which meant there was no winner. 

" Now that you have both tied, it means that none  of will go as per the conditions that you set against one another. That is my fair judgement" said Lady Nana who left .

It made Tere to be filled with lots of anger. She did not want to stop her search for the evidence till she found the culprit who had stolen the evidence.

" I will use another method to find the person who has stolen my evidence. That person will suffer serious consequences evening it is you. I am not going to spare you" said Tere who left the meeting square.

Martin sat on the floor wondering what to do to stop Tere. She thought of throwing Tere outoftje closer gates but could not do that because he had no evidence to claim her leave. He went back to the mansion and went straight to his room. He was astonished to find Tere there searching through his things which made him to filled with lots of anger. He went towards Tere then turned her towards him and slapped her.

" Did you have to steep too low to an extent that you decided to check through my things? You asked me if I was going to get you out of here and I think that this is a good reason to get you out of here. Today I am getting you out of the closer gates and out of my life forever" said Martin angrily. 

" Oh! Have you forgotten that you can't dare do that? We had an agreement that I was going to bring Ruth back to you and I must fulfill it before I leave" shouted Tere at Martin. 

" Is that true? Is it true that you are going to return Ruth back to me before you leave or send her to prison? Do you think I do not know what you  have been planning behind my back?" Asked Martin filled with lots of anger.

" With this attitude of yours, I think that there is no doubt you were the one who stole that evidence from me. I want it back Martin. If you do not give it back to me then I will have no choice than to hurt your dear Ruth. Think about it. Do you want Ruth back as the love of your life but in prison or as a corpse? You have no idea what exactly Tere is capable of" said Tere angrily.

" You have declared a war to me that I will have to finished myself. I will also not let you win in this. Do you want to know who stole the evidence? I am the one who stole it and that was the main reason why I was not going to allow you to hurt my people since that is what you know how to do best. These people here at the closer gates are my family and I care about them very much. Now leave my room" said Martin who signalled to Tere to leave.

Tere left the room filled with lots of anger. She was angry that her secret had already been known by Martin. She went to the kitchen then took a knife and went to Akeshia's room. Tere knew that Akeshia had already slept since she was satisfied that the fight was over and nobody got hurt. She entered Akeshia's room and was astonished to find out that Martin was seated beside Akeshia who was deep asleep and had no idea of what was really happening.

" Surprised! I came here because I know that you were going to hurt my mother next. Are you shocked that I am here? Were you really going to stab my mother with that knife? Now you have lost the chance to even work with me because I am getting you out of the closer gates for good" said Martin angrily. 

Akeshia could hear the noises from her deep slumber which made her to wake up. She was astonished when she found out that Tere was holding a knife. She went and stood at the corner of the room filled with lots of fear. 

" Look at your mother. She hides at the corner of the room like a cockroach since she is afraid of being stabbed by a scorpion. Your life is ruined Martin and I have been wondering what is worth fighting for. Purist is married at the age of sixteen just like I have always wanted to, Faith is Ruth's ally and does not want anything to do with her own family and Ruth despises you together with your foolish marriage" said  Laughing annoyingly. 

Martin immediately held Tere's arm tightly and took the knife away from here. He led her to the cell of hell and threw him there inside without caring about the consequences of his actions. He locked the gates of the cell of hell as soon as Tere entered. 

Akeshia was still shocked by everything that had happened. She decided to go and sleep in Martin's room. 

She passed the night there and woke up the next morning to find out that Tere had been released from the cell of hell. Akeshia widened her eyes in disbelief when she found out that Tere had sores all over her body more than the ones she had before. 

" Oh! Tere. Allow me to take you to your room and clean up your wounds. I know that Martin will not like this but I can see that you are deeply hurt and truly needs some help" said Akeshia but Tere pushed her away and went to her room. 

Luckily, Lady Ruby was there who held Akeshia to prevent her from falling. Akeshia got emotional and immediately hugged Lady Ruby as tears welled down her eyes. 

" Am I a bad mother? Maybe it is my fault that my son Martin got married to Tere. Maybe it's also my fault that he got married to Ruth at the age of sixteen. This all has tampered with his life and I feel weak that I cannot do anything as a mother. But.....I know what to do. I will have to go to Mambo town and have a talk with Ruth. She is the only one who can bring back the hapiness that this family had. But how would she do that? She despises us so much and sees that Ryan and his family as her family. No! I will have to do everything to put an end to that love affair. That is the best thing to do" said Akeshia.

 " Lady Akeshia! Sorry....mom Akeshia. I am coming along with you since I cannot bear it to let you go on your own. I am afraid that Ruth might mistreat you and something bad can happen to you. This is an order" said Lady Ruby as Akeshia nodded her head in agreement.

She knew that lady Ruby would not stop to pursuade her till she accepted that they went together. 

MARRIED AT SIXTEEN.
