The Hole in The Wall - Season 1 - Episode 78

She needed to hear what they would be talking about, What was happening, if the family was up or if agents had arrived…

She was linked to the laptop but the problem was in playing the audio. It was taking forever to load. The network was very bad or to be frank, non existent. The bus was presently somewhere inbetween Anambra and Delta. It was just the endless road and endless trees on both sides.

She waited impatiently each second more convinced something was on the saved tape. She reloaded the page and it showed an error message instructing her to check her connection.

They’d have to pass through a city sooner or later and there would be network. She would prefer sooner.

“Driver step on it a bit” Tonye said from the back resulting in a slight increase in speed. The driver was a cautious type and didn’t overspeed or maybe he wasn’t being cautous but being cunning, making the meter run at double rate.

“we’ll be there in the next ten minutes” he announced
“make it five” she said
“No problem ma” the driver said and she could tell he was thinking; in your dreams…
She couldn’t believe the height of treachery Buzz had commited which only meant they had all been caught sleeping at the agency, unaware of the virus that had been spreading within.

She was officially filled with the rage now, there was someone to vent the fury that had burned in her since she saw Olivia lying helplessly on the hospital bed.
She was about to urge the driver to step on it again when her phone beeped. The ending of the number looked familiar and she guessed correctly that it was the detective calling again.

“Detective, why didn’t you wait like I told you to before sending your men to the location?” She said accusingly
“I’m sorry, I was rash and unprofessional….my conscience is burdened believe me”
“well I’m in the middle of something..”
“Terry found the match to the DNA” Dagnet announced
“DNA?….oh you mean the one we brought? whose is it?”
“It matches a girl who used to work in Mrs Amunike’s boutique”
“huh….that means the chief must somehow be involved” Tonye said thoughtfully. She didn’t even know what to do with this information right now, every one she could have called was in the hospital.
“thank you detective….I’d be sure to let you know whatever we come across….driver overtake that keke now! haba!”
“actually I’m no longer a detective” dagnet said slowly
“you were demoted?”
“No…I was discharged”
“I’m so sorry…”

“no its okay, i deserved it I guess”
“we’re there” the driver announced and Tonye could see the tall hospital building looming just ahead.
“I’d call you back detec….errr….I’d call later” Tonye ended the call hurriedly and was almost out the door in a blast but she held herself back. She turned to Clyde. “We act like everything is normal. we’d be in the hospital observing Olivia when Kirsten would call saying the house is under attack, so the three of us would rush out and we would corner him and subdue him or we play it cool till we get to the car….whichever one, we’re apprehending him”

Clyde nodded and they both got down.
