The noise from the three women at
Mr Robinson's resident became
much but nobody said a word.
Mike, who knew the cause and
source of the problem kept quiet.
David also looked at the women
without altering a word. But Mr
Robinson couldn't take it any more
so he shouted. "All of you keep
quiet!"
The noise gradually went down as
Mrs Robinson went back to her seat.
Already, Mrs Williams' temper had
risen. She regrated ever letting her
daughter had anything to do with
David.
"Thank God your daughter is still
alive" Mr Robinson began. "We shall
know the truth when she recovers
because she's the only one who can
tell us the true father of the child
she's carrying. Please, bear with us"
"I can't believe this!" Monica
exclaimed looking at David.
"We shall be back then" Mrs
Williams stood up and walked out
followed by her daughter and Mike.
Ugonma also rushed out. Since she
didn't know Monica's name, she
called, "Udoka"
Monica looked back as she wanted
to enter into the car. Her mother and
Mike were already inside waiting for
her.
"Sorry i called you that" Ugonma
went closer. "That's simply because i
don't know your name.
Nevertheless, i only want you to
calm down. I believe my brother
isn't in his right senses. I know him
more than anybody. Something
must be wrong somewhere. I
apologise on his behave, please"
Monica averted her eyes from her
after she concluded. She entered into
the car without saying anything.
Ugonma couldn't remember the last
time someone snubbed her in that
manner but she endured it. She
watched them drove away before
she entered inside.

FUMBI HOSPITAL 5:41pm
Inside the theater, Udoka laid face
up. She was supported with an
artificial oxygen for easy respiration.
One could see bandages round her
body. Her eyes were closed as if she
was dead. She had no knowledge of
anything happening at the moment
or around her. At the four corners of
the bed were policemen keeping
watch as instructed by Mrs Williams.
Outside the hospital were also two
policemen standing at the entrance
of the hospital. In their hands were
guns positioned for a sudden attack.
One could see cars and ambulance
packed at one side of the vicinity-
both old and new. Just then Skiddy
entered. He was shocked when he
saw the policemen coz he had a gun
with him on the side of her waist.
Even the policemen suspected him
from the type of locomotion he
exhibited. When he drew closer, one
of them said, "Stop there!"
Skiddy stopped with a smile. He
knew the next thing they would do
was to search him, so he swiftly
brought out the gun and shot the
two men to death then moved
forward again. The sound of the gun
did not only alert the other men
inside the theater but also the nurses
and patients who gripped in fear..
***
At Mr Robinson's apartment, he was
really mad at his son, David.
"What nonsense!" he began standing
up while David was still on the
cushion. "I trained you to be
responsible but what have you
given me back in return? Shame!
May God help you if i find out that
the pregnancy is yours. Nonsense!"
he turned to his wife. He couldn't
think of the words to use on her,
therefore he said, "You! you! okay"
he walked inside his bedroom while
the wife followed him. Yet, David
said nothing but stared at a spot.
However, Ugonma had been looking
at him from behind. That wasn't the
David she knew and grew up with.
So she gently sat beside him on the
couch.
"David, tell me the truth, what
happened? Did you actually do it? I
mean impregnat Udoka. And what
did she do to you?" Ugonma used
the best of her meek voice.
David looked at her angrily, he
hissed then stood up to his room.

Back to the hospital, nurses and
patients began to run up and down.
Meanwhile, the policemen inside the
theater had positioned very well.
Already, Danny and Sky had come
inside with their guns too. They
were entering every ward insearch
of Udoka. Suddenly, Skiddy grabbed
one of the nurses and pointed a gun
at her.
"Where is the girl brought in here
hours ago? Her name is Udoka" he
asked.
"Inside the theater" the nurse
terrified.
"Go show me the room!" Skiddy
pushed her forward. Immediately
they opened the theater door, a
gunshot was head all over the
hospital. Danny and Sky followed
the sound of the gunshot. As they
drew closer to the theater too, they
were shot on the legs thereby
crippling them. From there, they
understood that the gunshot they
heard was shot on Skiddy when
they saw him dead on the floor. The
nurse who followed him had already
fainted hearing and seeing him die in
her presence. Quickly, the policemen
took the men's guns. However,
Udoka was still safe, though didn't
know what was happening. One of
the policemen brought out his
phone.
"This is 101, send down a vehicle to
Fumbi hospital immediately" he said.
Meaanwh others had went outside
just to find their fellow policemen
dead..
