Suhad waited as Prince Aamir and Kamal joined the video call through Skype. He leaned back on the headboard and placed his laptop on his lap. A few seconds later the screen displayed Kamal whom seemed to be in the same position as Suhad in his room while Prince sat on a chaise lounge with a seemingly sleeping Rahma on his chest while he strokes her hair.

"Yo!"

"Sup"

"Dude"

Each threw in their greeting before setting the pleasantries aside as they had more important things at hand.

"So what's the information you said you have?" Prince was the first to ask Kamal; his tone holding his usual assertiveness. To him, Kamal is just an Agent he hired to find his so called father in law so he isn't as close to Kamal as Suhad is----therefore, sees no reason to be all friendly with him.

"Her" Kamal's screen displayed the picture of the woman which he got from the CCTV the other day.

Suhad watched the picture clearly as Aamir does the same; the two friends studying the face of the woman.

"The face is blurry, I can't make out her features" Prince stated still watching the picture.

"Same thing" Said Suhad.

Kamal sighed, "I know but doesn't her face ring a bell? Does it look familiar to either of you?" he asked the picture still on display.

The two men shook their heads making Kamal sigh again.

"Do you think Jabeer has something to do with this?" Suhad asked.

"I don't think so. Nothing relates him to Jannah" Prince stated as a matter of fact which seemed like a reasonable answer considering he's after Daihaah and not Jannah so why would he do that to ruin Jannah's reputation. It makes no sense; the guy probably doesn't even know Jannah-they all thought.

"Yes but if there's anything we know about Jabeer is that he knows things we don't and we underestimate him a lot" Kamal said after a few minutes of silence.

"Yeah well he better not think of getting Jannah involved in this" Suhad grumbled out his eyes squinting slightly.

"Dude..."

"No, I mean it Aamir! She better not get stuck in the middle of this" he cuts Prince Aamir making Aamir keep quiet. The one person in Aamir's life that he doesn't dare mess with when challenged is Suhad. Aamir's stubborn and doesn't bend down for anyone but Suhad's a different case that he doesn't want to get entangled with.

"Relax..." Prince Aamir said wanting to calm Suhad down before he goes in full rage mode. "She won't" he knew his friend is in love with the girl but he never understood the extent of it. It's a bit hard to believe that his goofy friend that never takes anything serious is the one acting all protective over a girl that doesn't care about him. If you ask him, she's not worth it. But then again, who is he to speak when he himself had his own fair share of Daihaah who's like Jannah too.

Suhad closed his eyes momentarily before looking at the picture of the woman again, this time more closely, "The woman isn't even a Nigerian" he said out of the blue making the two other perk their eyes up.

"What?" Prince asked wanting his friend to elaborate.

"Look" Suhad zoomed the picture making it a close up of her blurry face, "Her eyes..." he pointed to it, "They're green"

"She could be wearing lenses" Kamal reasoned but he knew that wasn't the case.

"Why would she bother to wear green contact lenses?" Suhad asked just to prove that Kamal's supposed theory doesn't make much sense, "And look" he pointed to the locks of her hair that rested on her shoulder, "Blonde" he said, "How many green eyed blondes do we have in Nigeria?" it was a rhetorical question and they all knew it.

"How did I not notice that earlier?" Kamal muttered to himself as he saw that Suhad's theory might be correct. "I'll run a few scans later to find out more about her" he said making the two others nod in agreement.

"Now that that's done with for now..." Suhad said trying to change the topic to a less profound one, "How's your wife? Has she been easy on you or what?" Suhad asked laughing slightly when he remembers a memory of Faruk telling Aamir that his pregnant wife will show him pepper.

"Man it's not easy" Prince shook his head looking around the room probably to check if Daihaah is there before he continued, "She's driving me nuts. Can you imagine the hell she raised yesterday saying that she'll not eat food unless she eat food unless she eat gizzard from Bauchi Club in Bauchi. I mean how the hell am I supposed to get that?" Aamir exclaimed making Suhad Suhad and Kamal laugh at him.

"Book a flight, buy it for her, and return back"

Prince Aamir glared at him, "Ai because I pluck the money from trees ne koh?"

Suhad laughed, "If the woman said she wants Bauchi based gizzard you'll get her that" Kamal joined him and they both laughed at the sulking Prince.

Prince Aamir huffed, "You both think this is funny right? We'll see if it's funny when you have women that will drive you crazy in your lives" he knew this might just be karma for everything he did to Faruk during Anee's pregnancy but that ego of his won't let him admit it.

"KAMALLLL!!!" A loud voice came stopping Kamal's laughter. Loud knocks followed after on his room door.

"Wait, is that...?" Prince trailed off, a look of amusement flickering on his face.

"It sounded like..." Suhad trailed off.

"JOBLESS MAN IF YOU DON'T OPEN THIS DOOR I'LL BREAK IT DOWN!" Came Jannah's voice very loudly and clear.

Kamal groaned and face palmed himself. This girl is about to embarrass him now of all times! "Shapeless amoeba go away!" he yelled back hoping she'll leave him alone but she's not having any of that.

"ALLAH IF YOU DON'T OPEN THIS DOOR BAH! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING SEFF THAT YOU LOCKED THE DOOR?"

"None of your problem. Leave dan Allah!"

Silence followed afterwards as Jannah hummed as if realizing something, "NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU LOCKED THE DOOR! GAYEN KO DAI GIRLFRIEND KAYI NE? NO WONDER NAJI KANA KASHE MURYA! IYYE! AND I WAS JUST THINKING OF TAKING YOU TO THE MOSQUE FISABILLILAH TUNDA NAGA NO MARKET WITH YOU"

"God" Kamal looked down face palming his face. One part of him found her joke amusing but the other part that's all about work felt embarrassed that she said that and Suhad and Aamir have overheard it; and they laughed-hard. "What are you doing here please in the first place?!" he yelled back.

"I'M OUT OF PEPSI"

Kamal stared at the door in disbelief. So she interrupted his meeting and embarrassed him just because she's out of Pepsi?! This girl is crazy! He thought. "And what do you want me to do?"

"GO AND GET ME MORE?"

"Here's an idea, why don't you get it yourself!"

"WELL I WOULD'VE BUT SOME IDIOTIC FISH HEAD TOOK MY CAR KEYS AWAY FROM ME!"

Kamal kept shut as his gaze moved from the door to beside his phone where her car keys lies. He took it from her earlier when she insisted on going back to work. He thought taking the keys away will stop her from leaving but he didn't think that the girl will make his life hell. "Tell the driver to get it for you!"

"Oh!" she said as if a realization just dawned on her, "ASHE MA MUNA DA DIREBA" Her footsteps followed afterwards as she walked away.

Suhad smiled like the goofball he is while the two other men stare at him with knowing looks on their faces. But, he was too caught up in his thoughts to even notice them.

At the time he only had one person in mind. And her name starts with 'J' and ends with 'h'.

~ DUBLIN, IRELAND~

Big boss groans as he tried to sit up while he struggles to listen to what the doctor is telling him. His head hurts and every muscle in his body aches. Thankfully his vision isn't blurry like earlier but the pain in his stomach is worse than it was earlier..

"Sir you shouldn't get up, you need to be on bed rest" said the doctor with thick Irish accent.

"What I need is for you to tell me what the hell is wrong with me" Big boss retorted glaring at the poor doctor despite the pain he's feeling. Another piercing pain came in his stomach making him fall back on the bed whilst clamping his eyes shut, his hand gripping his stomach tightly as he gritted his teeth in pain.

The doctor quickly moved towards him and injected something into his drip before regulating the flow of it. He sighed and moved back watching beads of sweat form on big boss's forehead. He waited for the Nigerian man with short temper to calm down before he spoke.

"Are you aware of any hereditary disease in your family?" he asked.

This earned him another glare from Big boss which made him sigh.

"Sir I need to know before I can tell you. Every information is necessary right now and the more you delay the longer you're going to be in pain" the man said not fazed by the glares he kept receiving. For as far as he's concerned he's not the one squirming in pain so he has nothing to lose whereas Big Boss has a lot to lose.

Big boss waited for his breathing to regulate before he answered, "My mother had bipolar disorder" he grumbled but the doctor heard him.

The doctor jotted it down, "Apart from her, did anyone else in the family inherit it?"

Big Boss thought about the question in his head, "My sister's daughter I think" he said not really sure. It's just a theory though.

The doctor continued to ask him questions about the pain he's feeling and how long he had been feeling it-this of course included asking why he didn't seek for medical attention since which earned him yet another glare that he ignored. After conducting a couple of more tests on Big Boss, the doctor walks back into the room.

"Based on the reports of the test I've ran on you earlier, I figured out what's wrong" the doctor said still looking at the reports in his hand.

Big Boss whom now sat with his back on the headboard with his head tilted up and eyes closed forced his eyes to open before settling his nebulous gaze on the doctor, "What is it?" He asked, his voice coming out low and gruff. He hated this, being in this position-weak and vulnerable but there was nothing he could do. Neither his wealth nor power can save him this time.

The doctor looked up, his face grim, "It seems you have colon cancer, stage IV"

"What?" Jabeer muttered. He shook his head, "No, it can't be you're lying"

"I'm not Sir. But if you don't believe me you can go to another hospital" the doctor said in a tone that states that whether Jabeer believes it or not, he will still get paid so he has nothing to lose.

Big boss stare off in space, all sorts of thought swarming in his head, "How long do I have left?" he asked still looking ahead.

"One month, two highest" The doctor said in a heartbeat making Big Boss inhaled sharply.

"Isn't there anything you can do to stop it?"

"I'm afraid not" the doctor shook his head, "It's in the final stage. You should've sought medical attention the very minute you started having problems with it but you didn't. Now, there's nothing we can do for you at the moment..."

Jabeer shut the doctor and whatever he had to say from that instant, he didn't want to believe that nonsense. So what the Irish doctor means is that he is going to die? He'll die and leave Layla and Daihaah in this world? He'll die and leave his wealth and power here? That means everything he worked hard for will be nothing since he's going to die! He thought.

Once the Doctor finished his short speech on God knows what, he left leaving Jabeer alone before one of his men walked in. He looked at his Boss in concern, "Boss, is it bad?" he asked.

"Yes" Jabeer groused again. "Get the car ready, we're getting the hell out of here now"

"But Boss if it's critical, shouldn't you stay here for a while longer?" the guy asked out of concern for his boss.

"No" Big Boss said pushing away the quilt on his body, "I'm going to die anyway I might as well leave a few presents for some people" he said removing the drip in his hand, blood began to drip from the open wound but he ignored it reaching out to pick up a gauze and rolling it over the wound.

"Maria called"

Big Boss looked up at the mention of the woman that he thought will never look for him, his own baby sister, "What did she want?" he asked.

"She was looking for you" the man informed him, "And she sure as hell sounded furious"

Big Boss smirked, "Let her be. Just ignore her" he waved her topic away, "Did Sarah send more money?" he asked standing up with much difficulty.

"Yeah she sent one million"

"That's not enough" Big boss shook his head, "But we can manage. And what of the cops?"

"It's just Prince Aamir, Kamal, Alamin and the cops that are on the case. Qamrah doesn't want to get involved unless you strike her family"

"I'll figure out what to do with them later. Now, we need to get away from here, now!"
