Tarasha - Season 7 - Episode 30

‘I tried her number and it isn’t connecting, you guys should play safe.’ Henry said into the phone before ending the call.
He looked at Madam Henrietta who was still staring at him. He still wondered how the woman got Tarasha to call her mother. Tarasha was a daughter of the Danjumas and the couple were dead. He couldn’t hold his urge to ask questions anymore. He got up from the chair and sat at the other edge of the bed where she was. She was quick to talk before he could begin with his questions.
‘Where is Omotara? Please tell her not to go anywhere, i have this strong feeling that she might never come back.’ Madam Henrietta said.
‘No please, don’t say that. Tara is coming back and one day, she would find a way for all of us to go back to our normal lives.’ Henry scolded her.
The woman shook her head sadly. ‘I don’t know, I don’t think that day is ever going to come.’


‘Come on Madam, stop talking negatively. It’s going to be well.’
Madam Henrietta let out a deep breath. ‘Can you tell me what she’s going to do?’
‘Just to round up our task,’ Henry replied.
‘Please tell me in plain words,’ the woman shook her head.
Henry sighed. ‘The Vice President is trying to escape from the country and she wants to stop him.’
Madam Henrietta’s face went blank for a moment as she pondered on his reply. ‘She’s gonna kill him?’
‘I don’t think so, she could stop him without killing.’
‘Are you sure?’ the woman asked, with her body vibrating.
Henry could sense fear all over the woman’s body. ‘The truth is she’s going to stop him, I don’t know how, she might end up killing him or just handing him over to the police.’


‘But that man is deadly, he can harm or even kill her and he…’
–5 Minutes Later —
In the ceiling of the building Dave had gotten into, after confirming the exact room where Henry had lodged the team from the hotel. He wanted to hear their plans and know their next steps.
‘Did someone knock the door?’ Dave could hear Henry’s voice. He was now very sure that he was in the ceiling directly above them. There was silence for a moment.
‘There’s no one at the door,’ Henry’s voice sounded again. Dave knew that it was the noise he made in the ceiling that attracted them to the door.
There was silence for almost one minute before Dave heard Henry’s voice again.
‘I never imagined that Omotara wasn’t a real child of the Danjumas, I always believed that she was the only girl and I think she also believed that she was.’
‘Yes, you’re right.’ Dave heard Chief Gab’s voice. ‘She only found out recently who her real mother was.’
Dave listened to them carefully as they talked, Three minutes later, he heard Henry on a phone call.

‘Cole, I’m coming to join you on board.’ Dave could only hear Henry’s voice but not the reply. ‘Don’t tell me not to, my mind is made up. I’m coming.’

The woman’s scream became louder as Rex dropped into the room weakly. She was an middle aged woman, she had come for a business meeting in Lagos for the next morning and had changed into her night gown to sleep for the night. She turned to the other side of the bed to have a clearer view of who dropped into the room. She saw him sprawled on the floor weakly. She couldn’t tell if he was dead or not.
She needed to talk to the reception and tell them about him immediately but she was scared, the landline placed by the hotel management for the room user to communicate her needs was at the side the body was. She watched him for seconds and after being sure that he could not do anything to her walk past him quickly. She picked the phone and dialed.


Rex was in severe pains, his head was terribly injured from Tarasha’s hit and the window glasses which he hit in the process of falling. He didn’t feel like he had any strength to get up until he began to hear the woman reporting his fall through the phone calls. With deep sighs and groans, he dragged himself up and dragged his backside on the floor to the woman, she screamed and dropped the phone on seeing his movements towards her. She jumped onto the bed and fled quickly to the door.

Rex picked up the receiver of the phone quickly and held it between his shoulder and his ear as he dialed Elvis Richard’s number.
‘El…Elvis Richards, please ask that the power of the hotel goes off again, this time for ten minutes before coming back on.’ Rex said panting into the phone.
‘Okay, I’ll tell him right away.’ James replied instead.
‘Have your ship moved?’ Rex asked.

‘Yes, it has.’
‘Make sure you watch all those men on board, do not trust any of them.’
Rex did not get a reply immediately. He heard James talking to Elvis Richards.
