TARASHA
EPISODE 13 CONTINUE
‘So Cole and Benny, I believe you know why
you’re here’ She began, sitting up right. ‘We
have a job at hand right now and I urgently need
a very good driver and someone good on
computers’
Cole and Benny looked at each others faces,
Benny answered her. ‘We are both good at
computers and also fast drivers’
‘Okay, who’s better using computers?’ She
asked.
‘The truth is… ‘ Benny replied with a sorry look,
he glanced at Cole as he spoke. ‘He’s better at
both than I am, but I’m not bad either’
Tarasha smiled, ‘so in what area are you better
than him?’
‘I can handle guns very well’ Benny replied with
a smile.
‘Is that true?’ She looked at Cole’s face for
confirmation.
‘Yes, he was the major hitman in our gang’
‘Okay then, Cole will be in charge of all
computer or camera works while Benny would
handle the cars and be my backup at
operations’ she paused and looked at their
faces, they both nodded in confirmation. ‘So
when I leave here now, Coke would set up the
computer room to his taste while Benny would
visit the store rooms for weapons and study
them carefully’
‘Okay’ they replied softly, one after the other.
‘Now, one thing you guys have to realize is that
you’re working for me and your loyalty should be
to me and not your former boss or Chief Gab
who brought you here, I just sent him an errand’
She paused and laughed. ‘And then, I hate
dishonesty and unpunctuality, I hope you guys
don’t have these bad qualities?’
‘No’ they replied in unison this time, Benny
shaking his head softly to emphasize hos
answer.
‘Good, also note my instructions have to be
obeyed always, I won’t share anyone who
willfully and unnecessarily disobeys’ the look on
her face changed to a serious one as she stood
up from the chair. ‘Now pay attention to this
serious warning’
The two guys bounced to their feet and
followed her as she was motioned towards the
exit door, they followed hurriedly expecting to
hear her give the serious warning.
She paused and turned back, the look on her
face was a contorted one, the guys shivered at
her new look. She stared into their faces and
spoke in a harsh voice. ‘Nobody knows who
Tarasha is except you two and the maid, the
day anyone finds out from you is the day you
will breathe last’
They stood still and watched as she walked
away, still finding it hard to believe that their
encounter with her was real and not a dream.
What baffled them most was the ease at which
she could switch her mood easily, they
wondered what it would be like to work with
her.
Benny who had earlier planned to call his former
boss and tell him about her, changed his mind
and decided to keep mute, his loyalty was to
Tarasha henceforth.
The both stood still in silence for a minute after
she walked out of the gate. Then Benny turned
and muttered some words under his breath, he
took off his shirt and threw it on one of the
sofas in the living room, revealing his heavily
tattooed back.
Cole followed suit, brought out a cigarette from
his pocket and lit it. He stopped at the
entrance, stuck the cigarette in his mouth and
puffed out the smoke into the air.

*6am, Saturday Morning*
Cole was the first to get up that morning,
he
opened the door to the room where Benny
slept
and peeped, Benny was still fast asleep. He
closed back the door and continued walking
to
the parlor, he stopped again after walking a
distance. Just at his left side was the
computer
room which he briefly assessed and
arranged
the last night.
His countenance changed as he noticed
that
thedoor was slightly opened, he
remembered
locking it with keys the last night. That
arouse
his suspicion, he pulled out a knife from his
left
side and walked slowly to the door. He
opened
and peeped in but saw no one, he walked in
carefully scanning through all corners of
the
room for possible sign of an intruder. He
found
nothing and walked out of the room.
Benny was already awake and was at the
computer room doorstep.
He yawned as he talked, 'are you working this early already?'
'No, its as if someone came in here or did you enter here last night after i had gone to sleep?' Cole asked locking the door again.
'No' Benny answered, giving Cole a serios look.
'I locked the place yesterday but found it opened this morning' Cole continued
'Huh?' Benny moved back slowly then turned and walked to the weapon store room, the place was locked. He opened to check if everything was in place and he found it to be in order.
'Nothing here has been touched, maybe you forgot to lock up the place, sleepy head like you' Benny mocked as he walked to the living room.
Cole followed behind, ' i dont think so'
'You...' Benny paused abruptly and stood up as swiftly as he sat into the chair, he walked towards the window like someone who discovered something.
