Act Of Faith - Season 2 - Episode 2

AS NARRATED BY CHRISTIANA

I am Christiana as you all know, a well trained spy from Newriton but
as at now, I happen to be on suspension just because of a small
offence, I didn’t do it on purpose, it was just out of love. I loved Gabriel
and wanted him to be mine, I didn’t want him for Adanna, so as a girl,
I had to spoil things between them by using a letter which later
backfired, I hope it doesn’t continue to. I have forgotten about Gabriel
when I met my new guy, Carlos. He showed me love beyond
redemption and soon, he swept me off my feet, I fell badly in love with
him. Anyways, that isn’t the problem now, all I need back is my family,
my fellow secret spies, we have a lot of mysteries to unravel together,
time to spend together. My beeping phone interrupted my thought,it
was an unknown call. I picked the phone and placed it on my ear, ”
Hello, Good evening, this a call from Newriton welfare unit, Christiana,
your suspension has been called off” The voice from the other end of
the phone came and the line went dead, I couldn’t believe my ears, I
knew it would be called off but I never expected it this soon, time to
call my family, let’s burst some brains together.*


I sat on my bed that fateful morning just thinking about life, it is funny
how Daniel managed to escape from Newriton, even with the security
facilities there, the person who must have facilitated the escape must
be an expert. I know sooner or later, Daniel might wanna take revenge
on us, but before then, Newriton won’t call us. I turned to look at my
sleeping wife, I wish she knew who I am, I wish she knows am a spy, I
wish I could just wake her up and tell her: ” Adanna, am a spy” but I
just can’t, Sir Ajan says its meant to be a secret, a big secret because
you can trust no one, not even your wife. That’s how big and difficult it
is to be a spy, you must tell no one about who you are, and you should
prepare your mind to die at anytime without telling out who you are. ”

Hello” I greeted as I picked my ringing phone on my bed, it was
Christiana the betrayal, she broke one of the minor rules in Newriton,
but she betrayed me. ” Gabriel I was called back two days ago” She
informed me, I simply smiled. ” Hey, hope you won’t do any rubbish
again?” I asked her trying hard to be cheerful , ” No, I won’t do
anything to them, am sorry” She apologized again, she has literally been
apologizing ever since she was suspended. ” hey, it okay sis, welcome
back to the family” I said smiling, if not for what she did then, she use
to be a good girl. ” Have you told the rest about this?” I asked not
allowing her say anything.. ” Yes, I have told Morgana, israel, and
Matt” she informed while I nodded, ” Have you told Alvana?” I asked, ”
who is Alvana?” She asked back, ” That guy Daniel betrayed back then,
during their set” I answered. ” I dont know him too well” She replied, ”

He is Morgana boyfriend” I informed, ” Then Morgana will tell him” She
said and that was all, we spoke about some irrelevant stuff and later
put an end to the call. ” Hmm, Christiana” I smiled as I dropped the
phone on the bed, ” Who is Christiana?” I heard Adanna’s voice behind
me, ” my friend” I replied, ” Hmm Gabi , be careful o” She smiled as she
hugged me from behind, ” So my good morning for today is who is
Christiana?” I asked her, ” Hey I was about saying that just now” She
countered, ” But you have not said it” I said smiling, ” I ain’t gonna
greet you again” She said and stood up from the bed, ” Why?” I asked ,

” Because you reminded me, I would have surely greeted you” She
replied still standing, ” That nothing to start a fight about this morning,

I dont even need the greetings before self” I said and stood up, I was
going towards the sitting room, ” Good morning Gabi” She shouted after
I have left the room, ” Good morning ” I shouted back,” I thought you
won’t answer” She shouted again but i didn’t reply this time else we
would simply keep on shouting at ourselves. ” Ogbakpo!! ” she shouted
as she ran out, into the sitting room. ”

Have told you to stop calling me
that, I won’t warn you again” I told her sternly, Ogbakpo simply means
a fool when translated to english, my late sister, Linda, may her soul
rest in peace actually use to call me that name, Adanna picked it from
there since she was a close friend of my sister. ” Haba, is that why you
are frowning? Just because I want to play with you” She hissed and
turned to go, ” Oya, sorry, come” I begged while she jumped back with
a smile. ” I knew you would beg me” she smiled sitting beside me, ” So
what is it?” I asked reaching for the television remote, ” Hey, ask in a
polite manner” She frowned, ” Abeg talk jare” I said as she adjusted
more close to me, ” You are to take me out today, remember?” She
asked, ” Did I say today?” I asked , I dont even remember promising to
take her out. ” yes now, have you forgotten?” She smiled, ” So where
should I take you to?” I gave in, its not actually a bad idea spending
some time out with my wife, I think we should actually have a good
time. ” So where should we go to?” I asked her, she immediately
adjusted herself on the sofa. ” Dubai” she blurted out while I stared at
her in amazement and disbelief, ” Dubai, for what? How can we
possibly go to Dubai today?” I asked her, ” Cabbage head, were you
meant to ask me where we should go to? You are the man here, take
me out” she smiled and placed her hand around my shoulders, ” Let’s
go to the stadium” I smiled, she twisted her mouth in that cute manner
and shook her head in pity, ” Out of the land of Israel, I have found a
husband ” she lamented and backed it up with a hiss, ” Can’t you just
be serious for once?” She asked adjusting more closer to me, ” The day
I will break this your mouth for you ehen, you dont have respect again ”
I said, ” Ah, my husband, I am sorry, forgive me” she apologized with a
mockery face, ” You ehen!!” I hissed. ” Gabi now, say something , where
should we go to?” She asked staring at her phone, ” Where should we
go to?” I asked back. ” Can’t you just take me out to a place of your
mind” she shouted twisting her mouth, ” Okay, I know the perfect
solution, let’s not go anywhere again, let’s just stay at home ” I shouted
back and made to go away, ” if you go ehen ” she threatened as she
stood and walked to me. She stood face to face with me and stared
directly into my eyes, ” You are taking me out to a place of your choice
weather you like it or not ” she shouted and hit my chest before
walking away angrily. ” Hey, Adanna, okay, okay I will take you out, am
sorry” I shouted after her, ” Just leave me alone!!” She shouted from
the bedroom.

AS NARRATED BY TONIA
I Sat opposite sir Ajan staring at me as I stared at him, we were in his
office and definitely, it isn’t for something good. ” Tell me Toni, what
else do we have to do to you?” He started as he stood up from his
chair, ” How Sir? ” I asked back, ” You are asking how? You are the
only one backwards in training, you aren’t improving” He lamented
sitting on the table, ” Tell me, what else should we do?” He asked
while I bent my head, I am trying my best. ” I dont know sir” I finally
answered after some minutes of thinking, ” I think I know what to do”
he said while I looked up at him immediately, he was putting on a
smile. ” What sir?” I asked him also smiling, ” Why dont we just put
you on a small test mission? I think that’s the perfect idea, why haven’t
I thought of this all this while? ” he smiled on , ” Get prepared, you are
going on a mission ” he ordered while I bent my head slowly in anger,
this guy just want me dead.

Iwas already dressed up in a blue shirt and jean trouser, Adanna was
still in the bathroom having her bath and I know she won’t be done
anytime soon. She has finally decided to go to the cinema, she said she
wanted to go view a trending movie , Jumaji, I wonder what sort of
movie it would be. I left the room and went to the guest room, I might
need to burst some brains over there. I opened an artificial, fake tile on
the floor, it had the same colour and look of the other tiles, I brought
out my secret briefcase and took out my gun, my official gun. I replaced
the briefcase and covered it up as it was before, no one would ever
know there is something hidden there, I mean no one. I hid the gun in
my waist region , in it belt and covered it with my singlet and then my
cloth. ” Adanna!!” I shouted as I got to the bedroom, she was still
bathing, ” What? ” she shouted back from the bathroom, ” Please get
out of that bathroom and let’s leave here” I shouted back. ” Am almost
done dear, dont worry we won’t miss the movie” She said, i’d prefer we
dont go at all. She came out from the bathroom some minutes later
tying a tower, exposing those her killer curves, ” I hope you won’t take
much time in dressing up?” I asked as she started creaming her body,

“Ah, do you want me to dress there like a mad woman?” She fired
back, ” Must you shout in all things?” I asked calmly, ” Am sorry” she
apologized stretching her hands for my hand. ” don’t be angry” she
pecked me. ” You are putting on a blue shirt, I should also put on a
blue gown” She said while I nodded, ” Not a bad idea” I said as I
walked towards her wardrobe and brought out three blue gowns. ”
Which of the three do you want?” I asked her , ” You pick for me now”
She said , ” Okay, you have to test the three of them then” I said and
she nodded. ” Romantic Hubby” She smiled and pecked me again .
