Looking For Clara

“Why have you suddenly stopped dancing?” The man who she had come with earlier questions her as she smiled at him. “I just realized that I need to go, I have a show with someone”. She uttered with a feign smile hoping that they could believe her.

Just then, the security guards who had witnessed what happened burst into their meeting Room. “Good afternoon sir; sorry to disturb you, but I think we’ve been robbed”. The guy uttered as Wilson stood up in shock.

But how? How’s that possible? Wilson questions him. Clara was now really nervous as she tried to walk out of the room but the guy who had seen her in the car with them called her attention.

“I’m sorry to say this but I think she’s among the arm robbers who entered the company some minutes later. “I’m sorry, but I think you’re mistaken me for someone you saw.” I don’t even know what you’re talking about?

“Do you mean that we have been robbed? How and when did it happen? “I don’t know! I wasn’t even sure because everything went off all of a sudden but I thought you were aware of what was happening? All the money in the store room is gone!ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“What, how come and when? That was when it dawned on him that what he was telling them could be True. What if everything was a set-up? He thought as he glared at his other team members who were also disappointed.

“Tell me the truth Lara, who set you up?” Clara was now speechless and didn’t know what to reply to him, “I’m sorry sir but nobody, I actually came here in search of a job”.

She shrugged at them hoping they would believe but Wilson raised an alarm immediately for everywhere to be Search whether they could find any information concerning the armed robbers.

Wilson knew Clara was lying because everything just seems obvious. He went to the storeroom to check the Money which they’ve been instoring for there only to find it missing. Everything was actually according to her plans. Her coming to dance for them was a form of destruction.

He confronts everybody that it will be Okay as he tells the security guards to check out everything that happened and make sure they find the real culprit. If only he had known the armed robbers who had come to rob them it could have been more easy.

“Since you don’t want to tell me the truth I’m taking you to the police station.

He let out a beam as he sighted them coming in with a bag which he knew would contain some dollars. That actually did succeed in the mission which he sent them. They make him proud. At least his teaching wasn’t in vain. But his mood and countenance were ruined when he found out that Clara wasn’t with them.

He just silently sat down waiting for them to come inside the room because he actually saw them from where he was sitting through the window. Not quite long, a knock came in which he replies for them to open the door.

They better give a better explanation to why Clara didn’t follow them. If not, they’re all going to go through some pains in their ass this evening!

“Where’s she?” That was the first question he asked them before they could try to speak as they gave him these weird sad vibes and he knew that something was wrong.

“Tell me the fucking truth, why isn’t she here!” He yelled at them his voice so husky and Angry as they glared at each other, hiding themselves away from him and pointing at one another to explain everything that happened to him.

And of course all eyes went through Shirley and Owen who they knew was the closest person to him and they’re the only one who can advise him. Donovan didn’t bother to ask them again but stood up from the Chair and was about commanding them to follow him outside when Owen Decided to speak up because he knew that he’s up to something really bad.

****

“Please just listen to me, master?!” Owen uttered as he gave him a deadly gaze then sat down on the chair back with his leg crossed around. He was currently with his cocaine and nothing was stopping him from taking it. He inhaled the cocaine through his nostrils as he shook his head.

Owen has to tell him the truth because he’s currently high at the moment and he can even injure him or kill him if he makes a mistake by lying to him and he will definitely figure that out.

“After everything we called Clara to know where she was but she didn’t pick up and we were running out of time at that moment so we couldn’t wait for her but had to get inside our car and drive away”. We really don’t know if she’s still in the company with them! Owen uttered as he glared at them signaling them to apologize by mime expression when Donovan wasn’t looking.

“Please forgive us master”. They all chorused at once as he stood up with a deadly gaze on them. His eyes had changed after taking the cocaine and his anger had increased more. They actually prove to him of how stupid they could be by their actions.

Maybe it’s because of the fact that it’s been long they went through his tortured. That was the reason why they’ve decided to leave her there and he knew that if she gets caught by them it’s finished. Their secrets will be revealed. It’s not like he’s scared of the truth but he just wants them to remain anonymous.

“I’m going to release the tiger over the nine of you here, I’m sure you know how it works! If you truly want to survive then you have to fight for your right by fighting with it and over taking it but if you can’t, then goodbye!

As he was talking with them, his phone rang out and he had to pick it up. The call was From Beckham who was laughing at him before ending the call. He pondered why he called to laugh at him. Just as he was still in deep thought a news pump into the front screen of his phone and clicked on it. What he saw left him dumbfounded.

The news was about Clara who was being beaten and interrogated in the police custody and she was claimed to be a member of the arm robber that had come to rob the company.
