THE FACE OF DEATH (CHAPTER 5)

It was the day of Jacob's trial and it determined whether he was going to be walk free or sentenced. By 5am, Daniel Osawese was woken up from his slumber by a rather suspicious sound. Mr. Osawese, who was fond of keeping one window open, quietly walked to his window and noticed some men in black outfits trying to cut through the electric barricade. He quickly tapped his wife, Itohan, who was at the other side of the bed.

"Babe, wake up", Daniel tapped his wife again.

Itohan rubbed her right palm on her face, yawned and asked, "honey, isn't it too early?"

"I saw some burglars trying to break into the house", Daniel whispered.

"Jesus! How is that possible?", Itohan muffled.

"Go to take the kids to the emergency room now", Daniel instructed.

"What about you?", Itohan mumbled.

"I'll join you all shortly... I need to enable the security breach protocol so they won't break in", Daniel said.
