Where are you?

I looked at the message I sent two hours ago graced with two blue ticks. Indicating the message has been read. I sigh in annoyance again, why isn't she here yet? I've been at the secluded part of the hallway for two hours. It will soon be time for assembly and the idiot wasn't still here.

I tried dialing her number again, but it said the same thing it has been saying for two hours straight. 'The number you have called is switched off.'

Today is Monday the most stressful day ever and this human being wants to add to my stress. Today is also the day I plan on taking Sonia out of this school and if possible my life.

I'm not gonna kill her or anything like that y'all should relax jeez.

"Hello," I turned in fear to see a figure who wore a hoodie. It must be her.
"Kamsiyona is that you?" I asked for confirmation. It could be a serial killer for all I know.

"Yes its me," she removed her hoodie revealing her sweaty face. She was still clad in her maids uniform.

I scanned her from head to toe, taking note of her weary appearance. "What took you so long? And why was your phone switched off.

"I was about to reply to your message when my battery went dead, and I still had a lot of work to do in that house so I came late."

"Do you got the stuff?" I asked her.

She removed a black nylon bag from her gown pocket and stretched it to me. I looked at the bag confirming if everything was inside. I smiled when I saw all what I need against her.

A thought came to my mind, and I immediately looked at her. She had her head bowed, avoiding my gaze. I scoffed as I looked at her pathetic form.

"What were you thinking uploading the picture of the both of them, are you mad? Now because of this I'll be a laughing stock in the school?" I lamented at her.

"Madam you told me to keep an eye on them and take pictures of anything suspicious they do. I only sent the picture to you." She tried explaining herself, but I remained adamant.

"That isn't possible, I saw the picture of them on the schools platforms 30 minutes before you sent yours."

"I wait till the girl leave before I send am to you."

Oh no, that means someone else must have planned to do this. But who?

I heaved a sigh before I turned to her. "Its no problem, you can go." I dismissed her as I brought my phone out.

"I have transferred a hundred thousand naira to your account. And remember anytime that bimbo comes to Derrick's room again be vigilant as fuck." I instructed her as she squealed with happiness.

"Okay ma." She squealed again as she scurried off excitedly.

So for those who don't know, Kamsiyona is one of the youngest maids in the Johnson household which is Derricks home. I hired her a long time ago to keep an eye on Derrick for a huge sum of money. She dropped out of the university in her 300lvl when her family went bankrupt by...none other than Sonia's dad-

And yes, I knew about Sonia's dad. His fraudulence activities were also here in Abuja. And I also knew by the surname. As soon as Kamsiyona found out that the girls father who broke her family was here she agreed immediately. She wanted revenge and I was happy to help.

I could spread Sonia's dad's history but at the same time I wouldn't. I mean is not students that will rush and share their theories before the case eventually dies. I want to do something that will leave her unhealed.

°°°°°°°°°°

I waited for everyone to exit the classroom and go to the auditorium where the assembly is being held before I proceeded with my plan.

I slowly tiptoed into the classroom, searching left and right to find anybody lurking around. I moved towards her desk and brought out the items

I wore hand gloves as I placed the items into her bag.

Don't blame me for using hand gloves, what I was implanting in her bag was very dangerous and if she denies not knowing it they could do all types of investigations to find out the truth. So I had to play it safe.

I zipped the bag and removed the hand gloves. I smiled in victory, my plan has succeeded.

"What do you think you're doing?" An ice stoned voice asked from behind her. I froze at instant, I gulped as I turned slowly only to meet Derrick standing at the door with his hands folded.

Seeing it was him relief washed over me.

I walked to him with a confident aura. He possibly didn't see anything right?

"Hi Derrick, how are you doing?" To my surprise he didn't reciprocate my greetings. He just looked at me with a stoic expression on his face that made me uneasy.

"Did you just put what I think it is in Sonia's bag?" His voice was surprisingly calm.

"Derrick-"

I couldn't complete my sentence, because he side stepped me and walked towards her seat. He stopped and grabbed the bag from its initial position. He opened the bag and grabbed the stuff from the bag.

"Derrick what are you doing?! Put it back there right now!" I yelled, but he didn't seem moved at all. He just put the stuff in his pocket and moved towards the exit but I was quick to grab his hand.

"Derrick I can explain."

"There is no need for that, did you really have to go as far as putting cocaine and other hard drugs in her bag to implicate. You know when I saw you lurking in the hallways I wanted to give you a benefit of doubt that you aren't gonna do anything stupid but oh boy was I wrong."

"Sonia is just a sweet and innocent soul, why are trying so hard to bring her down. Your obsession with her really needs a cure." He completed his sentence and glared at me.

Did he just say I'm obsessed with Sonia? Omo this boy don dey craze. And did he also just say she's a sweet and innocent soul. Innocent my foot.

"Derrick, its very clear this girl has brought down your sense of reasoning. And may I mind you she isn't as innocent as she looks, that girl is snake. And I promise you I will end that girl, don't think because caught me I'm gonna stop. And don't think you can do anything about it cause you're just a scared pathetic little boy." I jeered at him, watching his face falter before his expression became normal.

"If you try anything stupid again..." He trailed off bring his phone out of his pocket. "I'll just show the school authorities this."

I gasped in shock at what I saw, it was me some minutes ago putting cocaine inside Sonia's bag. He smirked when he knew he has gotten me and put the phone back in his pocket.

"Derrick you wouldn't dare. You know you love me." My eyes were starting to get clouded by tears.

"I never loved you from the beginning Empress. Stop fooling yourself, and I beg you in the name of whatever you serve, please stay away from Sonia." And with that he left me.

He left again.

Cause of Sonia

ᕯᕯᕯᕯ

"Hey watch where you're going." I screamed at the person who bumped into me.

I'm at the brink of tears right now and I don't need anything else to add to it. I looked at the person who bumped into me to see she was picking up her books.

I noticed that face shape and aura anywhere. I watched as she stood erect and looked at me. She gave me a blank look before plastering a small smile on her face.

Is she smiling at me? When did that one start.

"Hi Empress you're just the person I'm looking for." She said with a smile still her face. I looked at her confused.

"What's going on?" I asked, I made sure my voice my cold and detached so she wouldn't get any ideas.

Seeing I wouldn't give in to easily, the smile on her face faltered. She exhaled before coming closer to me, putting some distance between us.

"I know you want Sonia gone," my eyes widened at her statement. How did she know? "And I want to help you." She completed. I looked at her dumbfounded.

"Listen, I know you might not trust me-"

"Of course I don't trust you, your sister is her friend. And you wanting to join is suspicious considering you don't have any issues with her." I cut her off as I folded my hands on my chest.

"We can talk about that later, but I have a plan that is gonna work. I just need your help." She stretched her hand forward as an agreement.

"Deal." I said dryly shaking her hand. If I want Sonia gone I would at least need someone brainy. And also considering my initial plan to get her gone flopped.

"Now here's the plan..." She leaned in closer, looking left and right to make sure no one was around before whispering the plans to me.

I stood there shocked to my marrow when she finished. That was actually a good plan, why couldn't I think of that? No wonder my mum praises her everytime, she has the brains I can never possess.

"You are to come to this address during the weekend approximately Saturday by 7pm sharp, have a nice day." She gave me a piece of paper as she sashayed away.
