C3 Arrival

Marie and Louis filed for divorce and it was stamped leaving the custody of Mia to Marie. Louis was physically not happy about this and no one understood why it was so.

A month after the separation, Marie's perfume company rose as she had plenty of time for the business. Louis came back pleading for forgiveness and requested she came back together with him.

She refused at first but during a month he sent flowers and gifts to her. He also showed her love so they moved back into the new mansion not long after Louis was caught with a new secretary on their matrimonial bed.

Marie said nothing and treated him like a husband. Mia asked why she accepted all this.

“My love, he is not my husband" Marie replied

“I don't understand," Mia said

“Remember we divorced and we have not remarried so he can do as he pleases as far as he does not hit me, I am okay," Marie said

Marie accepted her faith and each day Louis brought ladies into the house. Marie stopped sleeping in the same room as him and moved to hers. On Mia's tenth birthday, she spent it on the beach tossing stones inside as she felt gloomy.

Marie brought cakes and gifts for her but she rejected all and requested it was given away. Mia always celebrated her birthday with Liam on the beach but on this birthday he was not and she could not take it.

A month after her birthday, Mia went missing. Deep within Louis, he felt glad that Mia was missing as he would now have peace of mind. Due to questions, he asked the media to ask the public if they had seen her but no reply came back even with the amount given for whosoever could find her, the search went on for a year by the police and the public but she was not found.

Nine years later, black jeeps which were at least up to thirty whooshed into the city with great speed towards a direction. The flowers and grasses at the side of the road looked as though they were about to be uprooted from the ground because of the wind generated from the speed of the car.

The glasses of the cars were tinted and as such no one could see who were in the cars. Passer bys thought of them as criminals who has come to invade the city. For some years, the city has been known to breed criminals. A few months ago, the city was calm again and no one complained of terrorism around their neighborhood.

The movements of the cars brought questions in the minds of the people and fear in their hearts.

“Could it be the governor?" a passerby thought aloud

“That's not possible. The governor never comes unannounced and if he did we will be aware of the cars that he used" another passerby replied

His fact was undoubtedly true. The governor has never come into the city with jeeps that were more than thirty. Who could this possibly be?

News cars, news helicopters which filmed the cars and people followed the cars with cars or taxis to know what exactly will happen due to curiosity. The cars took a U-turn at a junction going back to where they came from but on a different lane.

The people following were surprised at this. The tires of the car made a screeching sound as it got to a stop. They parked facing each other leaving a space in between and a big, large car which was the latest vehicle in town drove a bit further from the other cars using the path created and stopped a few meters in front of the cars.

Everyone concluded it must be the boss. The location at which they stopped was Baska's Industries Limited (BIL) premises. A police siren was heard a few meters away from their location as some people had contacted the police for assistance as they believe criminals are about to invade the city.

The police cars which were up to ten halted behind the cars and they all stepped down. The people were confident that the police will not allow the criminals to win. In the next second, soldiers walked out behind the police and moved forward towards the car in front and the people's morale was at the extreme.

They all surrounded the car giving at least some inches away from the doors. A firearm shot was heard which made everyone alert both inside the company and outside. The doors to the cars begin to open and people putting on masks which only revealed their eyes and lips step down from the car.

The only car which did not open was that at the front. The soldiers and police officers prepared for fire as they stay in position pointing their equipment at the car in front of them. The driver and passenger doors of the car opens and two hefty men stepped out who were also putting on a mask.

The back right door opens and a man steps out of the car still putting in a mask turns to the other side of the car. He had a smirk playing on his lips as he stood in front of the back left door. He places his hands behind his back with his legs spread.

“Step back soldiers! Step back officers!" the man commanded

He spoke so loudly that those outside the company could hear his command. The soldiers and the police officers glanced at each other in confusion.

“Soldiers!! Officers!!!" the man called out even louder

The soldiers dropped their weapons and stepped back which was followed by the police officers' action. There was a huge space created as the soldiers and police officers stepped away from the door which was yet to be opened.

The man opened the door in front of him and everyone presents curiously waited for the person inside to emerge and feed their curiosity. The news helicopter moves to the left to get a better view of the person and the reporters got closer to film as they helped those at home watching to know what was happening.

A right foot stock out which was putting on leather sandals beautifully decorated with beads and then a lady in her nineteenth emerged from the car.
