CALL OF DUTY

Peters POV.

My phone alarm kept ringing disturbing my deep sleep. I tried to reach for it in my subconsciousness but it was far from my grasp. I had no option but to sleepily get up. A leg crossed my face; i pushed it aside and sat up. Three naked white ladies where on the bed with me; one of them got d--k. F--k! How do I end up with transsexuals most of the time? New York is filled with them, you can hardly tell who's a real lady anymore.

I turned to the room that looked like it had just experienced world war 2 and stretched my aching body. The alarm was still beeping, I cursed it for waking me up from such a lovely rest. Then it was dawn on me! I looked at my phone 9 missed calls.

I was supposed to be with Joshua in Nigeria by now what the F*ck?, argh the previous night, the club; the pills. I hate Gabriel Smith, he got his ways of ruining my life, again he had succeeded in making me take three of that knockout pills knowing I've got to be with ma dude on his big day fuck.

I Immediately, sprang off the bed, picked up my boxers, wore it horridly. Reached for my trouser and slide into it while fetching my sleeve top from the floor. In no time, I was in my shirt and trouser and was forcing a pair of my shoe in my foot.

" Where the hell are m my socks!" I cursed out loud.

There was no time to start searching for it, I wore the foot other foot without a sock and rushed out with my briefcase.

The elevator was at the 77th floor, while I was on the 5th floor. "no time! no time!". I murmured and took the stairs, running like a deranged man.

I ran past the receptionist at the ground floor who called me back to check out properly. I shouted behind me. " got guest up there!".

I reached the car and discovered my car keys was not with me. " d--n shit!".

Immediately, I ran back to the elevator, it just left. The second was still around the 41st floor. I had no choice but to use the stairs again, how I hate stairs! This time I was sweating profusely, skipping steps and falling at intervals.

Barged into my room breathing like one who just completed a marathon race. I gat no idea why I would build a house as tall as a business center. The stupidity of it now dawned on me.....well that's what you get when you're rich. I Scanned through the large executive suite painted in white with every furniture and sheets in white. There was no idea where to begin the search. I looked at my Rolex leather watch, it was 10 minutes to 9.

In the confusion, i rushed to the bed, turned the sheets. Then slapped the ladies in the bum. " get up! get up! Where's my d--n car key!".

They seem to be too wasted to even open their eyes. I wasn't in the mood for play, so I slapped one in the face and shook her shoulders rigorously. She opened her eyes and looked at me sleepily. " where is my f-----g car key?".

She pointed at the bathroom and slept off again. I shook my head and rushed to the bathroom and my searched the floor, bathtub and found it in the toilet. A flash of yesterday's event came to me when we had a threesome in the bathtub and I used my car as a price for who satisfies me the most. After the sex, I threw the key in the toilet when the ladies where trying to take it from me.

I wondered why I even thought of that. Then dug my hand into the wc and pulled the keys. Did a quick rinsing at the washing in the hand basin before rushing off from the room.

I couldn't wait for the elevator to open before I jetted out and ran to my BMW convertible. Without further delay, i engaged the engine and drove off like i was being chased by assassins swerving through cars I didn't even know where my driver or P.A were at the moment, I was so disorganized. Zooming to the airport there was no time to go back to my estate for a private flight right now. And besides, I own the port🤷 *yh I'm that rich*

" f--k! f--k! How did I allow myself to sleep this much. I said as I now boarded the first class 6hrs flight to Nigeria. Yh I fucked up.

*Warri, Nigeria, Stine Estate. Joshua Kels POV

"Sir you've received a call from peter saying he's at the airport" Ben said as he walked in on me while I was in the gym.

I knew he'd come around.... Fucker. He missed the whole event. And what the hell was he doing at the airport? This dude is like the richest man New York he owns planes jet all the blah blah and he's at the airport. I laughed to myself as I got ready to go pick his ass up.

About 25 mins later I was already there only to meet a splendid surprise lol. this nigga was dressed like a mad man haha. He had a sock on one foot and the other was bare, he mixed up the buttons on his suit, even his tie was wrong his hair was..... OMG this guy was mad haha😂.

"Nigga get in the fucking car" he said with a frowned face as he walked towards me with lights flashing all over us from different angles of people taking pics.😂

"Wetin do you bra" I asked while we were on the road..." I gave you like about 13 missed calls yesterday wetin xup". I added.

"I got laid... man. I got laid by three bitches with one having a dick" he said tiredly"I was done working on some shit and decided to like blow some steam off before I got on my way"

"Yh but it seemed like the steam burnt you" I replied with uncontrolable laughter. Then we fell silent for some minutes.

"So how'd it go,?" He asked. After some few minutes of silence.

"Well.... You're now looking at the richest man in the world nigga" I said with a forced smile.

He didn't say anything again and we just drove to the estate. I met peter when we was seven, at an event where some bunch of nerds came together for some science projects stuff and his dad was the owner of *TRON TECH* a company that deals on technological advancement. but like mine he also passed when peter was young and now he runs his company, and he's doing pretty well.

"You look wonderful" Ben said as peter walked lazily into the mansion.

"Yh yh tease all you want I need a bath, a brush, I need to shit my ass out, and I need to sleep" he replied as he slumped into a pool of balloon that's by the stairs.

"Take your time, I've got something to show you"I told him as I walked upstairs.... "Both of you" I added.

About an hour later.....

" What we looking at" peter asked as both he and Ben focused on the screen.

"About a year ago before I got legal rights to my dad's properties. There's always been something here thats been missing here." I moved the mouse to where it is indicating the space for them .

" This file here, It contains everything my dad owns. Documents, histories, islands, cars, estates, companies, all you can name. When you tap it it shows the list" I zoomed in trying to explain.

"That's one long ass list of assets how'd you manage to scroll all this." Peter asked.

"It's tiring but that's not the point. If you have enough patience and time you'd scroll the whole thing. And you'd discover that this item's locked. Look" I said tapping on the file as it refused to open saying a password is in need.

"It's encrypted you tried opening it?" Peter asked

"Countless times but it seems all passwords are invalid" I replied as I tried in a password again and it said error

Ben ... It seems to have a limited try.

Joshua ... Yh I've got 3 more times now to try.

Peter ..... And?.

Joshua .... It'll auto delete.

Peter ..... Bollucks. And it must be In numeric form (numbers).

Joshua ... Yh

Ben.... Tried your birthday, his birthday, ur mum's, and stuff

Joshua ..... I've tried all.

Peter..... How about we hack it.

Joshua.... It's gonna auto delete if we try. It sent the warning the first time I opened it.

Peter..... How about Ben's birthday.

We gave Ben the desktop inputting his birth date but it still didn't work. Now 2 more tries

Peter..... Fuck. How about....ummm .... Look at the date of the creation how about that.

We put it in and it was still incorrect. now had one chance, and if its wrong the file will be lost.

Ben... Alright alright let's calm down and think this through carefully.

Joshua... We've ran out of all options I've tried everything.

Ben....maybe not everything.

I and peter turned to him with a puzzled look.

Ben..... You tried the date of the day he died.

Joshua.....that hilarious and absurd. He died that day how would he be able to know he was gon die and set a password to that date.

Peter.... I think we should give it a shot....

Ben.... I've been your father's butler since he was a young fine man and if there's anything I know about him is that he was always 10 steps ahead of time. He knew or had an idea of any, and everything before it happened.

Joshua .... How's that even possible.

Ben.... Do you believe in the supernatural

Peter... There ain't no such shit as that Mr Ben all we have running the streets of the world as villains are just failed experiments and good weapons in bad government.

Ben.... Well that where you are wrong. There's Soo much I need to tell you about your father but first I need you to trust me on this. 7th July 2004

I looked at peter to see if he had any counter reaction, but seemed he himself was as numb as I was. I Put in the dates "772004" And the whole system tripped off.

"Oh shit" peter said with an expression that mirrored us all.

And all of a sudden the monitor came back on with an icon on the screen saying "EL ELOYN"
