THE DARKEST HOUR (Cry of an angel) Season 2 Episode 3

The issue just became hazardous after Sandra left David angrily. What next could she do? She had been quite importunate just like a thong on David's neck. She had tried so hard to eliminate the life of abrasiveness to adapt edification but it seemed not to be working. Therefore, she planned to be fully abrasive to both Udoka and David. Sandra's family had been through hardships with only surviving father who is managing to pay her fees. That led her to a life called 'Runs' she never thought of which she had left for the past few months because of David. But the situation at hand wasn't favouring her rather made the issue worse.
Nevertheless, as Sandra hurried out of the lecture hall angrily, she bumped on the four girls; Adaku, Faith and the twins beside their car. All were looking classic chatting and laughing. Adaku's character never changed.
"Excuse me" Sandra interrupted the conversation. They all stared at her silently. There was a gutter which separated them from her. Adaku frowned disdainfully. "Which one among you is Udoka?" Sandra demanded.
"I am" Udoka replied.
"I want to have a word with you"
"Alright, go on"
"No, privately"
Udoka glanced at her sister and her friends, she wanted to cross the gutter but Adaku dragged her back forcefully.
"To where do you think you are going?"
"She wants to talk to me privately" Udoka replied.
"She should say whatever she wants to say here. You are not going anywhere" Adaku persisted.
"Hey, what's your problem?!" Sandra interfered glaring at her.
"You are my problem!" Adaku retaliated.
"Hey girls!" Faith shouted. "It's no big deal, let Udoka see her privately"
"Please, allow her to see her" Monica added.
Udoka gently crossed the gutter while Sandra and Adaku disdained each other. Udoka followed her to a private place as the girls watched in anticipation of their discussion.
"I will go straight to the point" Sandra began looking at Udoka. "I had been here before you, David had been mind before you came into the picture. He is all i care for in this school. So, the earlier you let him be the better for both of us. You've succeeded in charming him with your.."
"I didn't charm anybody!" Udoka interrupted boldly.
"Shut up and listen to me! You don't know who you are dealing with. I know this school better than you. So better back off or you dance to the tone of a drum without knowing the drummer. This is a strict warning" Sandra walked out angrily. Her words rendered Udoka weak to the extent she stared t her without having the strength to go back to her friends. But she found herself heading back to the car sluggishly.
"What did that witch say?" Adaku rushed her but Udoka kept quiet.
"Udoka, what's it?" Monica and Faith asked simultaneously, yet, there was no reply.
Udoka handed the car key to Monica and said, "Bring the car home when you are through."
All watched her enter a tricycle that was heading to the school gate.

5:00pm
Udoka laid on the bed all alone sadly. She wore a bumshort and a bra. The upper part of her breast made her appearance more groovy. As her eyes were closed, her phone rang. She opened it, glanced at the caller then ignored it. The caller, David, had been calling without her picking until the very last one.
"Hey, good evening" David sounded on the phone.
"Good evening" Udoka replied reluctantly.
"Why haven't u been picking my calls?"
"I don't want to talk about it, please"
Silence too over between both of them. David couldn't get it, so he said, "Can i see you?"
"No" Udoka replied.
"Why?"
"I just said no!" Udoka cut the call and flung the phone back to the bed. Her heart became weak thereby stimulating her tears glands. She couldn't help to feel sorry for how she just reacted. The more she tried to avoid the feelings, the more she missed and loved David the more. So, she sluggishly stood up, dressed up and headed to his apartment.

Mike and Ernest just came in to see David sadly thinking on the bed. They asked what the problem was but David said nothing. As they wanted to persuade him, a knock came from the door.
"Open" Ernest said.
Udoka gently opened the door. She greeted the boys who stared at her strangely.
"Are you okay?" Mike asked her.
"I'm fine" Udoka sat on the edge of the bed. Without being told, the two boys excused her and David.
Tranquility took over the room but David suddenly sat up beside Udoka. He wore a singlet and a pair of trouser while Udoka was in a skirt and a top.
"Thank God you came" David placed his hand on her shoulder but Udoka took it off.
"Why did you call me?"
"Why are u behaving like this?"
Udoka kept quiet without replying. So David squat before her with his hands on her thighs.
"Have i offended you my love? I'm sorry if i have done so"
Udoka grabbed his hands and bent her head. "David I'm scared"
"Why?"
"Is about Sandra. She threatened me earlier today. What do you even have with her?"
"Nothing!" David provoked. He stood up and located his cell phone..
