since I know you."

     "Don’t insult me, I have always

     "So when is the wedding day?"

    "Two months from now."

    "Ok, that is good, I will pay for

 the hall, and the MC."

     "Thanks man".. Peter thank Ken

and left.

    "Now that your friend is getting

    "No just one."

     "What about the woman we

 gave money what is going to

 happen to her?"

   "I don’t know, am not Peter".

     "Hmmm but you are his best

friend, you know, because

 whatever peter wants to do he tells

you first so you know."

    "Is true that he tells me

 everything but when it comes to

women he keep it to himself" Ken

 said not wanting Gina to start

 another fight that he cannot

control.

    "Do you know the woman call me

 and told me she is not going to

let peter off the hook, that she is

 going to deal with peter."

   "When,?

    "yesterday"

    "Then what did you say?"

    "What else, I only pleaded with

her but she is threatening fire and

 brimstone."

    "So you should tell your friend

 to be careful."

    "Ok, I will tell him Ken reply but

didn’t tell peter because he felt it

was not necessary."

    The wedding day came but

Peter was nowhere to be found.

     "Where the hell is peter Ken ask,

  everyone is present but there

is no sign of peter, they waited and

waited, but peter is not showing up.

     "Are you sure the other women

 is not responsible for peter’s

disappearance?" Gina ask

    "No, forget it, maybe he’s on his

way here, ken said trying to console

 the wife to be who is already in

 the building waiting for peter’s

arrival.

    Ken send men to confirm if he

 has left the hotel where he and his

 best man has stayed. But it was

 confirm that they left already.

    "Ok, let’s wait for them."

    They waited and waited but

no sigh of peter.

    "You want to get married  right?

And what makes you think you

can get married without me? you

get me pregnant and now you

 want to married, am just laughing

 at you in china language. If I don’t

get married, no one is getting

married do you hear me?. the

woman said.

   "But I can’t married you, you are

 too big for me."

     "Ohh.. so when you are getting

 me pregnant  I wasn’t big, is now

that your eyes have seen that am

 big. You will rot here, no one will

 know where you are."

    "She turn to the boys and instruct

them to shot peter dead if he dares

 to move an inch.

    "Yes iron lady."

    "Where could this guy be Ken

keep worrying and calling his

number but it was off. Fear started

 creeping in when Ken waited

 and didn’t receive a call from any

one asking for ransom.

    "Is he dead"? Ken ask but got

no answer.

    He called and called his phone

 but it was off,.

    "Do I contact the police? No, is

not up to 24 hours, so we can't

 declare him missing let me wait

 a little."

   The bride was getting anxious

 by the minute while everyone keep

 staring at the entrance of the door

to see if peter will walk in any

moment.

There was murmuring everywhere

 about what could have happen

 to peter.

Gina stayed by the bride to console

her while Ken keep walking up and

 down the front of the building

looking at his phone every now

and then.

    "Please name your price and

let me go", peter begged.

   "Shut your mouth, you think you

 can use me and go just like that?"

    "But I have paid you  millions in

 that regard."

    "You pay me? it was that friend

 of yours who gave me the money

not you, and am not even talking

 about money here."

    "So what do you want? Peter ask

 still tied up with his suit and the

 best man was also tied up.

    "Ok.. can you let him go?, he is

 not part of your problem.  Peter

 pleaded for his best man release.

    "No, he stays here with you, let

him share in your sin, is he not your

 friend? He must be the same like

 you if not how will he be your

best man."

    "Not all my friends are like me?"

    "You will only be friends with people

 who do and think like you"

the woman said.

    "But what about my friend Ken?

Is he like me? no, he is a good man,

honest and good looking, he even

 gave you money."

    The woman start to reason that

peter might be saying the truth.

    "Yea, ken is a good man", but this

 best man of his looks more like

 peter, he might not be as good

 as Ken.

    "Please let him go, he didn’t do

 anything to you."

    "I will leave him because of ken,

 not because you ask me to".

    Peter breath a sign of relive.

    "Untie him", she ordered and they

 untie him.

     "Run and never look back", they

 kick him out of the place.

     "But madam what if he goes

and tell the police where we are,

what are we going to do?"

   The woman look at peter long

 and hard.

   "If he goes to the police, then we

kill him, she point at peter.

    "Ok, please tell me what you want

and I will do it, do you need money

 I will give it to you."

I don’t want money, I want you.

Fine, can you let me go and marry

her today, then we can fix our own

 wedding maybe next week or

 next month?

Shut up, next week or next month

 who are you fooling?

If there is anyone getting married

 today, that person could be me,

do you understand.

Yes… yes… yes… peter agreed as

the woman point at gun on his

forehead.

Let’s move him out of here the

woman order.

Ok madam, they move peter’s

location so they police would not

 find him in case his friend decided

 to report them to the police.

Please let me go, what do you

want to do to me, if you kill me

who will marry you peter say.

The woman turn and gave peter

a slap across the face.

You idiot  you told you no man

will marry me? are you the only

man on earth?

That is what am saying, peter said

 we are saying the same thing let

 me go, some other man will gladly

 marry you. 

Shut up, you are not the one to tell

 me what to do. You cannot use me

 and go just like that, you will pay,

you see all this boys, they are

working by keeping you here, you

 will pay all of them.

What? Are they my workers? You

 hire them you are the one to pay

 them, peter said.

You think am joking here right?  

you will see.

The best man ran all the way to

the wedding grand breathing

heavily.

Ken saw him and came running

towards him.

What happen where is peter?

Peter has been kidnaped 

What? kidnaped how?  

One woman kidnaped him, saying

 that peter use him and dumb her,

so he is not going to marry

anyone but her.

I said it, I said it ken could only

 imagine what peter’s wedding

would be like with all those women

peter always promise to marry.

So where is he now, take me to that

 location.

No, we need to go to the police first,

because those guys are armed.

Ok, let’s go. They rush down to

the police station to report the

case.

Where is the location and why

did they kidnaped him? Did he

have money? Is he a rich man or

 have oil well? The police keep

asking questions upon question

 that don’t even make any sense.

See, officer my friend is been

 kidnaped on his wedding day,

we are here for your help to

rescue him from the kidnapers.

You want us to go and rescue

your friend from kidnapers? With

what? How do you know that

your friend is not the kidnaper? 

Ken open his mouth wipe with

surprise to what the police are

saying.
