TARASHA
# EPISODE26B

‘Can’t you see that people around are suspecting
us already?’ She asked, increasing her pace. ‘We
might not be able to escape ourselves if we stay
here any longer’
‘The car is here’ Cole pointed to a black car
parked alongside with other cars outside the
airdrome.
++++++++
Tarasha wristwatch beeped as she piloted the
plane alongside Jude, she knew at once that
someone had entered the room but she was
indifferent about the situation, everything was in
control already, Lovina’s uniform had even been
infected with dangerous substances by Tarasha
and would cause severe itching to anyone who
wore it.
She didn’t infect only Lovina’s uniform but
several others that she found hung in the
dressing room. This was done to stop anyone
who tried to substitute Lovina and even Lovina
herself in case Benny failed.
+++++
‘That Tarasha is just too full of herself’ Aishat
commented bitterly as they drove out of the
aviation school. ‘Why didn’t she let us do the
planning together?’
‘She’s a professional Aisha’ Cole said
thoughtfully, ‘I believe she has other plans’
‘Professional my foot’ she stamped her fingers, ‘a
professional that’ll soon be caught as an
imposter’
‘She won’t be caught’ Cole spoke confidently as
he drove, he paused and waited for the right time
before turning into the road. ‘I believe in her’
Aisha bent to look into his eyes as if to ask if he
is mentally stable, ‘just don’t drive to Orogbum,
we need to stay somewhere else and plan on
leaving this state immediately’
‘Oh!’ Cole exclaimed as he remembered
something, he turned to look at the back seat.
‘Please bring that phone for me’ he said to
Aisha.
‘What?’ She gave an inquisitive look as she
handed the phone to him.
He ignored her question and placed the phone on
his lap, using his left hand to swipe through. He
opened a GPS application and waited for it to
load. After successfully loading, it displayed a
map and a revolving sphere appeared, under it
was written “searching for target 0%”.
‘What are you doing?’ Aisha asked again.
‘Wait!’ He hushed her.
‘Just don’t drive to Orogbum, I can’t picture
myself sleeping in the police cell’ she folded her
arms in a stubborn manner.
Cole smiled as he glanced at the phone’s screen
again, ‘it displayed “searching completed, one
target found” and a red blinking dot appeared on
the map.
‘What?’ Aisha was getting angry as she couldn’t
figure out the reason he was smiling happily.
‘The plane is moving already’ he answered
happily, ‘we’ll pick her up at Onne’
‘Huh?’ She asked with a doubtful tone
‘You heard me right’ he increased his speed
rapidly and zoomed past slow driving cars before
him.
++++++++
Jude watched in awe as Gloria controlled
everything perfectly. Right from the takeoff time,
he had been expecting her to look confused and
watch him fly the plane but the reverse was the
case, she flew the plane while he watched. He
wanted to ask her questions but his mouth only
opened and closed, no words could come out of
it.
He was full of regrets for being so careless and
unsuspecting of Gloria. He remembered the day
they chatted in the lecture room, he had found
several of the year one students having practical
on the runway after he left her to meet with
John Obiano. He wondered why she wasn’t
involved in the practical but he dismissed the
thought of her being an unserious student, he
concluded that the lecturer must have divided
the students into batches for the practical and
that it wasn’t her batch’s turn.
‘Who are you?’ He asked in low tones, finally
finding his voice.
‘Take control Jude, I’m going to ease myself’ she
ignored his question, getting ready to stand up.
Jude glanced at the time, they had spent only
ten minutes on air. He looked back at her to ask
another question, but the look on her face had
changed, her entire look had changed. The
Gloria whose face once radiated the spirit of
friendship and peace now radiated evil. The
colour of her skin was also changing, it was then Jude fully realized that he didn't know who he was dealing with.
'Ok' he said fidgeting all over, scared to look back at her face.
She walked slowly out of the cockpit, a blow knocked out the first air attendant that came forward from the cabin. The noise attracted the other attendant and she appeared to find her colleague lying on the floor.
She looked up at the pilot that was supposed to be Lovina but No, the lady in the pilot's uniform looked like the devils incarnate. The disguise makeup on Gloria's face was already fading, that made her face and hand show two different colors; one of the real Tarasha and the other Gloria.
The air second hostess was silenced too but after letting out a slight scream. Tarasha saw the hostesses' kits bag and checked to confirm if her parachute was there.
