ANGRY INVESTORS.

Mr Anderson who happens to be the owner of Anderson forte investment. He had inherited the company from his Father, who had passed on when Clara was Six, Mr Anderson had taken over his father's business with utter seriousness as he knew the effort his father put into the company to make it what it is now. A few months earlier, he had run into a great loss which has caused the delay of investors ROI. Investors who needs money could no longer wait as they smelt foul play. The biggest investors had called for a meeting as they demand to know the delay of their money.

"it been three months already, and you kept on giving us some flimsy excuses" Mr Stone, one of the biggest investors said with his hands hitting the wooden table which Mr Anderson had ordered specially from Italy.

" We ask each and every investors here to be patient with us, your money is safe and you will get your ROI as soon as the issue at hand is resolved" Mr Anderson said, hoping to pacify them with these words. Hearing these same words over and again, Mrs Reita, who had being introduced to the company by her friend, was no longer having to put up with the assurance of Mr Anderson.

" I want my money, and I want all of it, I no longer want to be part of Anderson Investment" Mrs Reita who is also one of the largest investors demands for her money.

The atmosphere was getting heated, as every investors aggressively demands for their money. The meeting ended with the investors agreeing to give Anderson more time to sort the issues out, after the biggest investors of Anderson Forte, allayed the fears and sounded reassuring that the issue will be sorted. " I have been quiet since this meeting started, simply because I believe in Anderson forte, he will surely give us a positive feedback, so I plead that we all give him time, and if anyone have an urgent need for money pls do well to reach out to me, but let us all try and endure" Mr Saviour, the largest investor said.

It was past 10pm when the meeting ended. Every investors drove back to the respective houses in the car. After they have all left, Mr Anderson who had long expected this to happen, sat a while in his chair. A thought of calling his wife arises, as he knew he was in a thight corner and the only way out is to marry Clara off, as her proposed suitor had already been etched on her arm, since she was a baby. A research had been carried out on the name KING MICHY LEVY, which only one male goes by the name. He owns more than 50 properties, which yield money for him, he now controls the affair of the state also. Mr Anderson knew it was time to reach out to Clara suitor to be.

"Hello Darling, we are not revealing the truth just yet to Clara, we are getting Clara married off to her suitor to be, I will be home in 30minutes"

He ended the calls without hearing his wife's reply.

...

"My baby Clara, it fine, bring the light out, now stretch out your arm" . "Mummy it not there anymore, my suitor name is gone, I don't know how it happened" Clara said with her arm streched out as her mum tries to look for the name. "Maybe, it in another part of your body" Mrs Anderson said "lie down while I check all over your body"

With Clara's back to the bed, and her clothes pulled off, the light went all over her body as she sobs bitterly, the thought of having her own children with her suitor to be, even though she wasn't even aware of whom he was, she just grew up believing that a wife should love her husband, as she has always seen her father loved her mother. " Mummy did you find his name?" "no, not yet. You know what my baby?". "yes mum". " Go to sleep hunnie, you don't need to panic okay? Tomorrow we will have everything sorted out". "goodnight mummy"

" I love you darlin"

Drawing her Child close to her bosoom, she gives her a peck on the cheek, as she has always done since she was a baby, even after Clara has always complained that she wasn't a child who needed to be pecked or told goodnight stories to before falling asleep. This time, the peck was needed, the mid night stories was needed also to make her fall asleep quickly.A knock was heard at the door and Mrs Anderson knowing whom it was, left the already asleep Clara room and headed to usher her husband in.

It was a minute after ushering her husband in, he look straight at his wife " we need to marry Clara off to KING MICHY LEVY" silence fell between them. "Say something, we cannot tell her she was adopted, we need to marry her or the company which my father suffered to build will crumble." Again, Mrs Anderson fell silence, refusing to speak.

"darling, I know this is hard, but Clara is our only option, i am at a lost now, I was duped and I am doing all my best to recover my money back from those fraudsters, but the investors are on my neck, I do not have enough money to pay them all at once, the company cannot run down at this moment" pausing, he ran a quick sketch across the room, hoping to see if Clara had been listening.

" She is in bed sleeping, I read her a bed story" . " So, do you agree we marry her or I end up in jail, I have just three months which the investors gave me to pay them all back" This time Mrs Anderson who couldn't hold it any longer, moved towards her husband with tears in her eyes "Clara suitor is gone" trying not to scream she covers her mouth with her wet hands as she begins to shiver.

"what??"

"Yes you heard right, her suitor name dissapeared" trying not to sound weak , as she believes she needs to be strong...

"How?"

"I do not know how" this time screaming so hard
