“The task is hard” Cyril told himself as he was washing his car inside his compound but must be undertaken.” He encouraged himself
The case was adjourned by the judge to the 11th day of July. He is now thinking on the possibility of him winning the case. He was still ruminating on this and saw facts in all Barr. Ogbu said in the court, he blamed himself for being insensitive to his environment.
“Please Jen my love, forgive me for my stupidity, it was never my fault but, just that I looked very confused on the day these wicked creatures that I doubt if they were created by God came and snatched you away from me” Cyril cried talk to himself.
Cyril concluded washing the outer part of his car when he entered inside to clean the seat belts and also the foot mat
. He pulled out the foot mat, low and behold Jennifer’s phone was lying there; He was astonished, and picked it up. He after a while of mopping at the phone tried switching on the phone but the battery was flat, he left to his sitting room where he plugged the phone with his charger to allow the phone boot, the after a while charge the phone booted and he saw the twenty missed calls of his no on the day of her death.

. He kissed the phone as if he had seen Jennifer again, the beautiful time he spent with Jennifer can’t stop flashing to his memory. He was still weeping when a knock came at the door, reluctantly he enquired the one behind the door but when Chizoba identified herself he asked her to enter for the door was openChizoba came in and saw Cyril’s eyes soaked in tears; she questioned Cyril many times but all he did was just showing her Jennifer’s phone. Chizoba couldn’t withstand the tears in Cyril’s eyes and burst out sobbing also. They both after a while mourning consoled themselves Cyril then went to his bar and brought a bottle of wine for the both to drink.
They drank and chatted for a very long time. Chizoba interfered Cyril’s mood by telling him that she really appreciated his effort in the court. He sighed and shook his head telling her that it was beyond any reasonable doubt that Flash was among the people who shot Jennifer. Chizoba gave some words of encouragement and about to leave when Cyril brought out the phone and asked her to hold the phone, for if he continues seeing the phone he gets hurt and that will make him loose concentration from making out points against the case that would be coming up the next two days.
Barr.Ogbu invited Onyeka and Chike to his office and advised them that the only way the case will be in their favor is if they take Cyril out of the way by killing him else they will all end up being apprehended for Cyril was a clever and smart lawyer and has a very strong evidence as his backbone which is that ID card, going further to tell them out of experience that with so much pressure on Flash he will be left with no option but to confess and they know the implication of his confession. Chike turned down the advice and made it categorically clear that he was not ready to shed blood again and whereas Cyril was like a twin brother to him and for the first mission of wanting him dead was his only regrettable mistake he has ever made in life.Onyeka wanted to convince him but all became very difficult till when Barr. Ogbu brought another alternative which was to go over to the campus and pay off a girl to act as Flash’s girlfriend, pretending to have been with Flash at Carolina hotel on the day the incident happened and at that particular time they all accepted the suggestion. Chike and Onyeka took off to the campus in search of a girl. Lucky enough they found Lynda a girl who was known in the whole campus as a person who could do anything at the hearing of any amount of money.
