A Girl Like Amanda - S03 E06

Read Story: SEASON 3 EPISODE 6

He dashes out of the house and was just in time to catch up with the men as they entered a red SUV parked across the road.

He quickly reenters his car and slowly followed them behind…

Gunner slowly followed them behind as they continued driving towards mainland.

Gunner took his phone and dialed Michael’s number, sending the call, he puts his phone on loud speaker.

The phone rang and it’s answered almost immediately.

“Where are you?” Michael asked.

“Potiphar is dead, I wasn’t there on time.” Gunner had to say and he just still couldn’t believe it.

“Shìt!” Michael cursed out.

“It’s Amanda with you?” Gunner queried.

“Yes, she’s in the car with me.” He replied.

“Am here, what’s up?” Amanda chipped in.

“Before Potiphar died, he told me something.”

“What? Tell me.”

“First of all are you guys alone?”

“Yea why?”

“Good, Potiphar mentioned something about a Evelyn, she being Maureen’s twin sister.” Gunner said and the realization of it all shocked Amanda and Michael.

After a few seconds of no response, Gunner spoke out again, “What is it?”

“If Evelyn is back then Amanda needs to stay out of sight.” Michael said surprising Gunner. Michael had once told him that Amanda is the fearless being he ever met so why does she need to stay out of sight?.

“Bro, you lost me there.” He said slowly.

“Michael I won’t hide from Evelyn.” He said Amanda say trying to keep a calm voice. It was evident that there’s a bit of fear in the way she spoke.

“Michael who is this Evelyn. For all I’ve gathered so far is that she’s Maureen evil twin. Is she dangerous?”

“Alexis, she tried to kill me today if Michael hadn’t shown up when he did. This is the third time she attempted to kill me.”

“Third time? Guess she’s not a bad ass you guys tend to be scared of.”

“She killed her mom.”

“Woah! Now she’s killed her dad, take it she’s a psycho.”

“She is pretty dangerous, the underworld calls her ‘Beautiful Death’. Where are you now though?”

“Tailing the people that has Maureen.”

“Okay forward your coordinates to us, you’ll need back up.” Michael said.

“Alright.”

The call dropped dead and Michael stepped on the accelerator.

“How long do we get before we arrive at Lekki?” Amanda said out of the blue.

“Forty five minutes tops.”

“Today, me and Evelyn’s rivalry ends. She killed those closest to Mr because she taught I am responsible for her brother’s death. Why was I blind the whole time. Evelyn was with me and I didn’t even know, now Taofeeq is dead because of me.” Amanda cried for the first time in her life, she felt stupid and insecure.

“It’s not your fault, okay?” Michael tried wiping away her tears.

“No Mike, it’s not. I took her to my family home, I introduced her to my family, my cousins, my aunts, my uncles and my grand mom. Now she could totally ruin my life if she decides to go after them. And I can’t protect them, not now that we can’t trust outsiders anymore. Not now that Potiphar is dead.” She sounded depressed and Michael felt like doing nothing. She’s scared and he understood very much. He did what he did (faking his death after being shot at) to protect Amanda and Victoria.

“You’ve found them?” He asked her trying to get her trouble mind out of the scary thought.

“Uh?”

“Your family? You’ve found them?”

“Yes and it’s a long story.”

“Don’t worry. Let’s get Evelyn first then we could talk about how you found them.

“I hope she doesn’t kill her sister too.”

“She won’t.

“Maureen is the only living sibling she has, her brother is dead, her mother is dead and her father is dead. I don’t think she would kill Maureen.”

“I just hope you are right Mike.” Amanda sighs as she started to pray in her heart.

Jidenna felt uneasy ever since the day Amanda left the village.

He has been having this recurring nightmares where a gun is placed on Amanda’s head and a feminine voice will speak in tears “Amanda I’m going to take away everything you ever loved and cherish as you took away my happiness.” Then she would pick the trigger, the bullet splarreting her brain inside her fathers’ compound and he would be powerless to help her.

But today, it felt worse as real. Something wasn’t right and he couldn’t understand.

With that, he decided to go see Victor in his house.
