Previously on the ruthless Alexandra.

“What’s this am hearing? Your job is to protect us and our children after which you bring her to us but you’re not doing any of these!”, he attacked, yelling into the phone.

“What DA heck? C’mon slow down man!”, the feminine voice retorted. It was Riggs Alexandra.

“I’m not slowing down! I’m not. . .”

“Shut up your fuckin’ mouth!”, She bawled angrily cutting the man short. “You fuckin’ spewing out shits from your fuckin’ mouth. Are you out of your godamn mind?”.

The man swallowed hard as Riggs Alexandra shrieked over the phone. He opened his mouth to talk but nothing came out. He was obviously too stunned to talk.

“I’m down here doing my job and all you could fuckin’ do is spit out bullshit! Ain’t gonna take shits from you anymore, got it?”.

He nodded his head. “yes, I get it”.

“Good. Now, listen up”, she said. “The fuckin’ girl is d--n pretty smart. I had her followed by men but she fuckin’ got away and killed the man’s children in the process but I got her fuckin’ guys”.

“Yeah, I heard it in the news. So what’s the plan?”, the man asked.

“The plan is d--n simple. Agent Matt gonna handle the fuckin’ guys and keep overwatch while I stand down here at my base. She’s gonna come get her guys and work in straight to my trap. Got it?”.

Amidu began walking down the hallway as he stepped out of the elevator room. He stopped by a door at his right, the same one Agent Matt went through. He stretched out his hand and placed his right thumb on the small sized panel. The door slid open before the scanning started and Agent Matt stepped out of the room with a forlorn look on his face. He looked Amidu up and down and then spoke up.

“I’ve been looking for you”, Agent Matt said.

“I’m here now, any problem?”, Amidu replied hoarsely.

“Oh! Not really”, Agent Matt flashed him a brief smile. “You’re spotted at a crime scene of the case you’re off which is against the protocols of this organization. I hereby suspend you for two weeks as written in the law book of this force”.

“What?”, Amidu squawked.

“I need to go question them now”, Cole said firmly in a coarse tone without looking at Agent Dave who was seated in one of the visitor’s chair punching the keyboard of a laptop in front of him.

“You know, Agent Matt is in charge now and am sure he won’t appreciate the idea of you questioning them”, Agent Dave said in a concerned tone. He abruptly stopped what he was doing and looked up at the distraught Cole who was pacing the room.

“But I got to do what I have to do”, Cole said and walked out, heading towards the interrogating rooms.

Agent Dave suddenly sprang up and ran after him but he was long gone and had dashed into the elevator. He could see the elevator going up rapidly at its ascent. He placed his hands on his waist and let out a sigh.

Cole strode along the hallway with a mean face and a determined mind, walking past junior agents in uniform who never cease to salute him whenever they come in contact. He stopped at a room by his right and impatiently pressed his right thumb against the screen then, it began scanning which afterwards flickered success on the screen. The door slid open and he walked in hurriedly while the door closed behind him.

“You killed ’em, right?”, Cole said with venom in his voice. He stood waiting for a response as he watched the heavily built man staring at him with an indifferent look.

“You heard me right?”. He was loosing his patience and his anger was fast striking high at its peak. Then it hit him. The man’s face looked familiar to him. He was pretty sure he had seen the face before. Then, he thought of it. He could remember that he had seen the face on the face defragmentation system which was the result of the finger prints the forensics found on the dead bodies.

“You guys killed her, didn’t you?”, he asked again.

Still, there was no response and that aggravated his anger as he balled his hand into fist. He took tentative steps closer to the man and launched a blow at the man’s face.

“You took her away from me!”, he yelled, giving him another blow.

“Stop!”, a voice shouted but Cole didn’t adhere to the word, he continued throwing his fist as he had allowed the anger take a better part of him.

“I said stop! Stop it now!”, Agent Matt suddenly held Cole’s hand from behind as he was about to deliver another blow.

“Leave me alone!”, Cole tried to wriggle his hand away but the grip was d--n to tight. Realization dawned on him as he turned to look at who held his hands.

“I’m sorry sir”, he apologized feeling remorseful.

“What has come over you?”

“I’m sorry sir, I over-reacted”.

“Look at what you’ve caused now”, Agent Matt said, pointing at the man. His face was covered by blood as his nose had been bursted open by the unceasing blows delivered to him.

“I’m sorry”, Cole apologized again.

“Get your sorry ass out of here now!”, Agent Matt yelled at him while Cole walked out reluctantly.

Time: 7pm.

Location: Rainbow Town.

Amidu fell face flat on the soft bed making him to bounce. He grunted as he lay still thinking of his suspension at work. It was barely two weeks that the case was taken from him and handled by Agent Matt. Now, he was suspended for a trivial thing which should have been overlooked but Agent Matt got his ass spooked.

“That bastard!”, he cursed under his breath. He had been a pain in the neck ever since he joined the DSS to work with them. Amidu could remember his expression when he began dropping his badge and weapons belonging to the DSS. He had a wry, mockery smile plastered on his face which never got to leave his face for once.

Amidu hissed and sat up on the bed. He realized thinking of it would only put his mind into a state of jeopardy and would make him resent to drinking which he needed to abstain from. Then, his mind drifted to her, Cassandra. A smile slowly curled up his lips as he mentioned the name. Slowly, the image of her beautiful face began to form in his head and he swore, he could see her smile. He picked up his phone on the bedside table and began scrolling through his contact list. He stopped by the name ‘Cassandra’ and dialed it. His heart began to thump as the phone began to ring at the other end.

“Hello”, an angelic voice answered from the other end.

Amidu was lost for a moment as he was mesmerized by the voice.

“Hello, are you there?”.

“Yes, yes. I’m here”, Amidu stuttered still basking in the euphoria of the sweet voice.

“Is everything okay?”, she asked.

“Everything is sure okay”. Amidu said. “So how have you been doing?”, he asked.

“I’ve been doing fine”.

“Are you busy?”.

“No, why do you ask?”.

“I just thought maybe we could go to dinner tonight”.

“Where?”, she asked.

“God’s favour restaurant”.
