Tarasha - Season 7 - Episode 22

‘But I have gotten the exit of the underground escape, it ends at Silver Restaurant in Lekki, I think the restaurant is also one of Elvis Richards’ secret properties.’ Cole said.
‘Send the details to Tomi at once, let her get to the restaurant immediately, watch him come out and follow him,’ Tarasha said to him.

‘I’m sending the details already,’ Cole replied. ‘I’m also checking the map of the area on my phone now and I can predict that Elvis Richards is making his way to the sea port. I guess he now wants to escape by sea.’

‘How close is the underground exit to the port?’

‘It’s less than fifteen minutes drive,’ Cole replied.

Tarasha sighed in frustration. She hoped Tomi would be able to track the man.
‘Round up what you need to do for me and then focus on helping Tomi. Keep your communicator on and stay safe, I’ll tell you if the plan changes at any minute.’
‘Okay boss, I’ll check around once again for you’ Cole replied.

Tarasha dropped the call. She glanced at Henry and the other two people with her, they were looking up to her to do something to get them out. Suddenly the lights came on again and after ten seconds, the elevator continued it’s movements. They got to the third floor soon and Tarasha led them out of the elevator into one of the rooms on the floor. She had a bag of make up kits in that hotel room and other bags containing weapons and other tools she needed.

‘Henry, get seated in front of the mirror quick,’ she said as she went to pick her bag of makeup kits. Henry pulled the footstool beside the bed and dragged it to the front of the mirror.

‘Tara, I just saw Rex again, he’s waiting for you beside the elevator. He has a device in his hands and I think he’s getting your location somehow,’ Tarasha heard Cole say to her.

Tarasha stopped and looked towards Chief Gab and Madam Henrietta where they stood at the opposite side where Henry was. She stared as Madam Henrietta sat on the bed tiredly while Chief Gab leaned his back against the wall.

‘Chief Gab and Mrs Henrietta,’ Tarasha called, startling the both of them. They stared at her, wondering what she wanted to say. ‘Check your bodies, one or both of you have trackers on your body,’ she said and proceeded to where Henry was sitting.
She dropped the kits bag on the floor and began to arrange the tools.

‘Tara, I don’t think they understand what you mean,’ Henry said to her after seeing the expression on the duo’s faces.
She looked up and saw that Madam Henrietta and Chief Gab had made no move whatsoever to check their bodies.

‘There’s something attached to your clothes, Rex is using it to find our location. Search you bodies and find wherever it is and give it to him,’ she said and details to them.
Madam Henrietta got up and began to search her body and Chief Gab joined.
‘Boss, I just locked access temporarily,’ Tarasha heard Cole’s voice as she began the makeup disguise on Henry’s face. ‘Rex was surprised not to see you come out of the elevator and I think he’s talking to someone now. He got into the lift to use it but it didn’t move because I closed the system.’
‘Great work, but that’s okay for me. Find out where Tomi is,’ Tarasha replied him. She still had her mind fixed on not letting Elvis Richards go even though her parents’ safety mattered to her.

‘Is it this one?’ Chief Gab spoke from where he was. It was his first time of speaking to Tarasha that day.
Tarasha glanced at him and saw a chip on placed on his palm, it had a tiny blinking light on it.

‘Yes, put them together.’ Tarasha said. Madam Henrietta had also found hers attached inside, close to the tip of her skirt. ‘Madam Henrietta, there’s a gown and a hijab in the bag on the headboard, take them out and put them on. You’d also find an Arab male traditional garment in it, that’s for Chief Gab to put on.’

‘Henry, I’d leave you to take them out successfully. They are your parents, you are Yusuf and they are Mr Rasaq and Khadijat Abdulahi.’ Tarasha said and stopped to look at Chief Gab who had put on the gown. She noticed he needed a moustache to make him look more different.
‘Boss, I’m on their trail, I think they’re truly headed for the port like Cole suggested but they’re yet to leave Silver Restaurant.’ Tomi’s voice came through.
Tarasha paused what she was doing to think. ‘Cole, what colour of cloth is Rex putting on?’

‘Ermm… A blue jean jacket with a black inner and a navy blue trousers. A bag is hung around his left arm and he holds a tablet device in his right hand,’ Cole replied her.
‘Okay, you need to join Tomi now. Make sure you do everything to ensure Elvis Richards does not leave.’
‘Okay boss, so where do you go from here?’
‘I don’t want more people to get hurt tonight, I’m leading Rex to the top most floor where we would have time and space for ourselves. So unlock access and let it last for only fifteen minutes,’ Tarasha said into her Talkon receiver before getting up to her feet.
‘I’m through Henry, I got to go now. You wait here for a while until you get an instruction from me or Cole to leave with them,’ Tarasha said as she turned to the other side of the bed. She picked a bag there and the two tracking chips dropped on the bed, stared at her mother for a moment and then turned to leave.
‘Omotara, I do need to tell you something very important.’ Madam Henrietta said as she watched her daughter walk towards the door.

‘Mother, we’d have all the time to talk when I return.’ Tarasha replied with a brief glance at the woman. She stepped out and b@nged the door.

Madam Henrietta felt heavy. That feeling of never having the opportunity to talk to her daughter again was stronger.
