A Series Of Thunder Strike

“You still have not change always quick to use your fist”. Christian said. K punched him again. Christian told him it was pretty clear now why Lanre would not want him to know the truth behind her pregnancy. K asked Christian what he meant by that. But Christian didn’t say anything. Instead he chuckled. K punched him for the third time and pushed him away. He told him to do as he said and get Lanre out of the country. Meanwhile, he will find out what he meant by his statement. Christian shrugged. He had a smirk plastered in his face. He left Christian in the bar. He got into his car but lacked the strength to drive. He picked up his phone and looked at it. He wanted to call Lanre but he knew he could not say anything to her on phone. And he doubts Lanre would pick at his call.

K thought of driving to Lanre’s place but he was not sure of she has moved back to her place or was still at Christian’s house. But then, if he sees Lanre, he could end up bringing her more trouble. His heart felt like it was going through a series of thunder strike. His heart was torn between fear and hurt.

He started his car wanting to drive back to his house, but instead he found himself on his way out of the Island. He knew if he continues on that way, he would find himself in front of Lanre’s apartment. But he could just not turn back. Worst was that it will take him an hour to get to Lanre’s place if there is no hold up on the way, but he didn’t care. Luckily for him there was no hold up that night and he got to Lanre’s place by 10pm. He just parked close to the building in which Lanre lives. He stayed in his car and just watched the building wondering whether or not he should call Lanre since he has managed to come this far. Then he saw Lanre and Eno walking into the compound together. Once they passed through the gate, he didn’t get to see them again. It seems they had gone to get something outside and were just returning. He had wanted to get out of his car and catch up with Lanre, but he lacked the courage to do that.

After spending so much time in his car without moving out or calling Lanre’s phone, he saw a figure step out through the gate. If it had been some months back, he would say she was skinny with the perfect figure he likes. But now she seemed to have gathered some fat, courtesy of being pregnant. But he didn’t like her less.

K noticed Lanre was coming towards his car. She seemed to have turn on her flashlight and pointed it towards his direction. Does she know he is the one? Did she notice him back then? Is that why she came outside?
