"So, since I've shown you Allison. Can I leave now?". The boy inquired of me.
"Yes, you can leave. Thanks for your help". I said to the boy.
And with that, the boy resumed walking, then I focused my gaze back on Allison. She'd already reached the Range Rover car by now, then she opened one of its doors and entered it.
"I guess there's nothing I'd be able to do about it, it's already too late". I muttered to myself while glancing at the car she had just entered.
Then an idea popped into my head at that moment, and the idea was to follow her...or would I say, trail her. I didn't even know where the idea came from.
But she'd just entered a car, how the fuck would I trail her when she was inside a car? How would I keep up when the car began moving, not to talk of when it would be moving at full speed?
Well, I wasn't even thinking about all that right now, I was just walking toward the car at a fast pace. And the moment I'd gotten so close to the car, it began moving.
I wasn't even expecting what I did next when the car began moving...I began running after it. It was just like a force was controlling my actions.
Students that I ran past didn't know it was the Range Rover car I was running after. And the people inside the car didn't know I was running after them.
The car had just driven out of the school compound and had turned in the left-hand side direction of the road and was still moving. And as for me, I'd just run out of the school compound as well with my gaze focused on the car.
As if the heavens were on my side, I sighted an incoming cab.
'Yes, I'd simply stop this cab and tell the cab man to follow the car. I hope he'd listen to me'. I thought to myself the moment I set eyes on the incoming cab.
I didn't waste time stopping the cab the moment it reached the place suitable enough for me to stop it. Then I uttered to the cab man while pointing at the Range Rover car that had driven some meters from where we were,
"Can you follow that car?".
"Why do you want me to follow it?". The cab man inquired of me.
"It isn't with any bad intention in mind. It is for a good reason". I responded.
That wasn't enough to convince the cab man to follow the car, but he needed to make money. Yes, he had only carried a few passengers for today and hadn't made that much money...
He needed my money to add up to the ones he'd made, so he said to me,
"Hop in, and let's follow the car".
He was a young man that seemed to be in his late twenties. A smile appeared on my face at that moment as I didn't waste time to hop into the cab, then the cab man put the cab in motion.
It was while I was inside the cab that I realized all I had done in a short time. From walking toward the Range Rover car Allison entered, to running after it when it began moving.
And now, I'd just boarded a cab and was following the car from behind though there were a lot of meters between us.
'Wow! How did I do all that in such a short time?'. I thought to myself.
I was inside the cab when it drove past my school. And I was glancing at my school as it was driving past, I could still see students trooping out of the school compound.
The cab man was still following the Range Rover, and right now, he was trying to get closer to it because there was a lot of distance between us.
Did he manage to get closer to it? Yes. He was a good driver...though the Range Rover car didn't slow down for a second, he still managed to get closer to it.
..But he got closer to it while using his brain at the same time.
He didn't get too close to it whereby even the driver putting the car in motion would start suspecting us. There's a way you'd be following a car from behind, and things would start getting suspicious.
The person driving the car would easily discern he or she is being followed.
Though the cab man got closer to the Range Rover car, he still made sure there was a little distance between us and them. There's no way they'd start suspecting anything.
We were on the main road right now and were driving at full speed along with other cars. The cab man was still making sure to be following the Range Rover car from behind while making use of his brain as well.
I could just imagine if it was a fast car we were trying to follow, like a Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, and so on...
It wouldn't be easy to follow these kinds of cars at all, and a time would come when following them would become completely impossible.
You might be able to follow them when they aren't moving at full speed. But when they'd gotten to the main road and began moving at full speed, then following them would become impossible.
The only way you'd be able to keep up with them was if you were also following them with a fast car...
There was no way I'd be able to follow Allison currently if it was a fast car she entered. I was just grateful that things were working my way.
The fact that I was trailing her would help me out a lot in accomplishing the quest...I was aware of this.
We were still on the main road driving at full speed, and the cab man was still following the Range Rover car. He never missed them for a second.
We kept on driving until we finally arrived at a place that seemed like an estate. No, this wasn't a matter of 'seemed like', it was an estate.
Everything around was enough evidence that it was an estate. From the luxurious houses around, to how silent the environment was as there were barely people around, and so on.
I was glancing around the moment we arrived at the estate as the Range Rover car was in front of us.
'Damn!'. I thought to myself while still glancing around.
The buildings I was seeing around, from both duplexes to bungalows, and so on, were making me mesmerized.
'This must be where she's residing. Her home must be situated around this place'. I thought to myself once again while still glancing around.
..And I wasn't wrong at all, this was where her home was situated.
They'd just arrived in front of a massive gate owned by a massive duplex. The cab man had put the cab to a halt as the both of us were inside it glancing at the Range Rover and the massive gate they were in front of.
After a few seconds of nothing happening, the Range Rover car was just in front of the massive gate, and we were just sitting there glancing at it, the cab man voiced out,
"Guess my job here is done".
He was talking to me...but didn't glance at me to make that statement.
"What do you mean?". I inquired of him.
It was at this moment that he glanced at me before his voice resounded again,
"What do you mean by what do I mean? Isn't that the car you told me to follow? It has already reached where it was heading to according to what I'm seeing, so my job here is done,
You are supposed to pay me now and hop out of my cab".
"Let's wait for a little while, please. The car is just in front of that gate, it hasn't entered it for the past few minutes. Who knows whether the driver would suddenly drive in another direction?
Maybe the gate can't be opened in the meantime, so he'd head somewhere else. I know what I'm saying sounds ridiculous, but I know why I'm saying it. Can we just wait for a while and see what would happen?". I stated.
The cab man nodded his head a little before saying, "I understand you. Let's wait for a while then".
A smile appeared on my face at that moment due to the fact that he agreed to do what I said...
The gate was opened after the passing of a few more seconds, then the driver drove the car right straight into the compound.
Yeah, it has been confirmed, they had truly reached where they were heading to. That must be Allison's home, it was a sure thing...
