THE DARKEST HOUR (Cry of an angel) Season 2 Episode 18
.
The twins were personally blessed
by God almighty and gave Monica a
unique power to foresee the future
through a dream when necessary
but she was just discovering it.
Unfortunate for Udoka, it started
with her.
Inside the room, the twins glared at
each other as Adaku and Faith
walked in. They also stared at them
thereby generating a suspicious
tranquility.
"What is it again?" Adaku began.
"Must both of you live like cat and rat
always?!"
Faith gradually met Udoka because
she normally prefer her to Monica
but had equal love for both of them.
She placed a hand on her shoulder
then asked, "Is there any problem?"
"Ask Monica!" Udoka replied.
All eyes were directed to Monica
who said loudly, "I'm telling this girl
the reality and she's taking it for
granted!"
"It's just a dream, Monica!" Udoka
retorted.
"You call it dream? Fine!" Monica
hurried towards the door but turned
angrily. "I swear to God Udoka, if
you die, I'm not gonna shed a single
tear for. Mark my words!" she added
then banged the door forcefully. The
two girls became dumb coz they
didn't understand what was going
on. Adaku dramatically went closer
to Udoka and said, "What dream is
she talking about?"
"She said she saw me dead in her
dream" Udoka replied calmly.
"Tufiakwa!"
"God forbid!" Faith added and flipped
her fingers after circling it round her
head. "Nothing will happen to you,
it's just a dream"
"That's what I'm trying to tell her but
she wouldn't listen. She wants me to
quit school and travel outside the
country" Udoka began to dress up.

The sun began to rise giving out it's
vitamin D to those who were ready
for it. As Udoka hurried to school
with a taxi coz her car was with
David, so as Sandra was preparing
to meet David with a cooked food
which she planned to put the maize
seed inside. She came into the
bedroom where Kate was cleaning a
gun.
"What is that for?" Sandra asked her
as she kept the food inside a
foodflask on the bed. Without
replying, Kate handed the gun to
her.
"Take it!"
"Hey! I won't be the one to kill her"
"Then what's your plan?" Kate
lowered the gun.
"I will hire assassins to do that.
Moreover, the instruction is to kill her
after David must have eaten the
seed" Sandra replied.
"Don't waste time. Remember your
life is at stake"
"Of course i know that" Sandra
picked up the food and headed
outside.

Udoka met David dressing up in his
lodge. She was surprise to see only
him inside the room. Without even a
single greeting, she sat on the bed
sadly. She could see her car key on
a table beside the bed.
"Good morning" David sat beside
her then placed a hand on her
shoulder "You don't look bright.
What's the problem?" he added.
"Nothing" Udoka replied. "How
about Mike?"
"He has gone to lectures" David
replied then silences chipped in.
There was something bothering
Udoka which David couldn't put a
finger on. Before he could ask her
again, Udoka looking into his eyes
and said, "Do you really love me?"
"Yes"
"What will you do if i die?"
"Die? Why talking about death? Your
message last night sounded similar
to this. What is going on?"
"I don't want to believe what is
going on. My sister said that I'm
gonna die after she dreamt about it"
David smiled, "It's just a dream"
"It might be a dream but my sister's
dreams are exceptional. They
normally come to pass"
"Nothing will happen to you" David
hugged and kissed her.
Udoka picked up her car key after
staying for a while. As she went
outside beside her car, she saw
another car more expensive than
hers. The car stopped beside hers
then Sandra stepped out. She wore
a heavy boot like that of soldiers.
When she saw Udoka, she became
shocked not because she was afraid
of her but because of what Ikuku
told her about her.
"Hi, Udoka" she said as she hurried
into the apartment with the food.
Udoka stared at her without
responding to her greetings. She
stepped into her car and drove out.
On her way, her phone rang-that
was her mother calling to tell her to
come home immediately.

MRS WILLIAMS RESIDENT
Monica was already there. That
explained why the mother also
summoned Udoka coz she had told
her about her dreams. Though the
mother didn't believe the dreams but
wanted to see her precious
daughter, Udoka. One could see
Monica sitting on the cushion
without smiling. She tapped her legs
abrasively in the uppermost floor of
the building. Suddenly, Udoka
entered and hugged her mother, yet
Monica didn't say a word.
"Thank God you are okay my
daughter" Mrs Williams smoothened
her hair.
"Mother, she won't be okay very
soon!" Monica shrieked. "Tell her to
leave this country! Udoka gonna die
if she doesn't leave this country.
Why can't you people understand
me?!" Monica stood up angrily.
"Shut up! Your sister will not die!" the
mother rebuked her. Meanwhile,
Udoka had started shedding tears..
