DEAL

Next day, it came as usual. She woke up with an ache on the head. A small yawn escaped from her mouth as the sun hit her skin jolting her. ' Whaaaat! Hey! What am I doing outside? Didn't l sleep in my room yesterday? She questioned herself staring everything around her. It was already morning and from the look of the surroundings, it seemed that she had slept too much. Everyone's eyes was staring at her. ' Did the land lady threw me out yesterday? Couldn't she wait till morning? She wondered when she heard her last kitchen pan falling down her head.'

' Ahaa! Thank goodness you're awake. Hope the night mosquitoes didn't bite you that bad. Am done with you now, l want you out of my compound right this moment.' Mrs Xingli fired as Mason approaches.'

' Alin, what.... Didn't you sleep..... I mean....'

' It's over, am done Mess. And all this is your fault.

' My fault, how....

' Ehhh, empty debes. All you do is disturb people around here. Now am fully aware of your behaviours. And again, l know very well that you're the ones who hit my ass with that stone the other day then you disappeared.' Mrs Xingli intruded.

' What, Mrs Xingli, you can't just accuse us of doing such a thing. Who told you that? Questioned Alin moving towards Mrs Xingli.'

' Do you wanna know. The most rich and respected man here in Lapaz streets. You're the worse Psycho people have ever met. Now out of my compound, now.' she muttered dragging both Mason and Alin out of her compound as people who were staring at them, starts murmuring.

' Oohh nooo, this embarrassing. How am l going to face everyone now.'

'Hope you learn your lessons bitches.' Someone spoke. Ouch! It didn't hurt that pan, riiiiight.

' Heee...y...yo...u. How dare you? Alin shouted gritting her teeth tightly.'

' Tsc... Any problem? You played your part the previous day, now can't l play mine? Can't l be happy? Benzyl asked standing like a real gentleman his hands in the pocket though his face was expressionless.'

' How dare you. Don't you have some humanity? Mason burged in.'

' You little rat. Get off my way. Now, listen carefully Witch and Mr nameless. Next time before you start something, make sure you know how it's gonna end. And never play with a man like me.' he spoke directly his damned evil eyes smelling like a warning he was giving them. But before he could add something, the reporters came right on time making him to bite his lower lip in disgust. He forgot that he was too close almost his nose touching hers until Charles shook his shoulder jerking him.

' The reporters have taken the pictures Boss. It's over.' Charles whispered in his ears.'

' This stubborn news reporters.' he murmured moving away from her. ' What do you want now, hmm? Didn't l made things clear to you? He questioned.'

' Sir, sir. But....

' No buts! Out of my away.'

' Yes sir.

' Sorry Boss.'

' Am sorry we didn't mean to rile up your anger.' Another one spoke.

' Then you shouldn't have come here. I need you out of my site right this moment.' he shouted as they turned but Alin stopped them.'

' No, stop! You can't just go without having something. Ooohh, you're welcome.' she said with a smile.

' Alin, Alin, what's wrong with you? Asked Mason surprised.'

' Shut up. I need money, so you must act too.'

' Huh! Money.'

' Shut up. I don't want him to hear.' she quiet him as the reporters approaches them.'

' Mrs, Mrs. Ahhh! according to our observation is there.....

' She cut.' Yes, there is. There's something going on between us.'

' Whaaaat! Woman are you insane?' Benzyl shouted coming closer.'

' No, am in Lapaz. Lapaz street. Can't you see even the sign board. Where is that Insane street anyway.'

' Alin, you're ruining everything. He didn't asked you which streets you're in. He asked if you're in the right state of your mind or not.'

' Mason. Oohh nooo! See how the reporters are staring at me. I think l need to do something.' Heeehh! Ahhh! She cleared her throat adjusting her shoulders. I thought, that was a joke l had cracked. Why are you not laughing, eehhh? Laugh, just laugh l won't care, Haahhh! See ehhh am laughing too.'

' She really needs a mentality treatment right this moment. Her mind is not right charles.' Anderson blurted.'

' Yes, l heard that there's free psychiatrist hospitals within. We should help Boss to look for one.'

' And why is Boss so fascinated about this girl. Does he want to caught her?

' Heeeyy, Charles may be you're wrong. Boss does hates black ladies. He believes that they are poisonous from her mother's sayings.'

' What! My uncle has married a black woman and have never read or heard anything bad about her. I think they are cheery, understanding, caring, loving, obedient, fu.....

' Charles...'

' Hmmm!

' Do you have one? Andy questioned staring at his tensed face.'

' I....l.....ummm! See...just kidding, ahhh! Me, have one, Oohh Andy, probably no.

' Look at me. Why is your soul wandering around.':

' Hey, l....

' Leave me..... Ahhh! You evil man. I said leave my hand or else....

' Or else what? Are you going to stand there and speak lies about us.... I mean me.' Benzyl's voice cut them in there conversation making them to look at them.'

' And what do you want me to do? Have been kicked out because of you, why can't you leave me alone.'

' Leave you. Heeehhh! In who's world? So that you ruin my name. On't you tired with your stubbornness?

' Me! Stubborn? Are you insane.'

' Huh! Woow! I see how creative you are. Fine, let's make a deal.'

' A deal, me and you? Since where have ever seen a dog and a cat making a deal. That will be war. A serious war, dude.'

' Okay, what do you want?

' I want my house back. I am jobless. I don't know how am going to feed my small womb for the next year's coming. Am hungry, have not taken my breakfast cause of you ruining my life. Am tired seeing your sweet angelic face, l...

She stopped immediately she saw worsed expressions in everyone's face. Her eyes froze the moment she caught Benzyl staring back at her in surprise. The passerbys and the news reporters, were amused with the news the got. It was the first world wide break record news and immediately some started reporting.

' Jeez! Fuck! These another bad karma of my life. Humph.' he spoke inside himself then cleared his tongue.

' Let us make a serious deal. NO OBJECTIONS.' he said scooping her from her ground walking away with her. Mason's thoughts were pulled away the moment he saw her be carried away. He run after them hopping inside their Mercedes Benz right before it closes.'
