“Boss, what are you doing with that bitch? I hope you know who she is? She is Sarah Canon. She is an embodiment of debt and bankruptcy. Recently her group, the Canon Group went up in fire and caused not just damage to themselves but to other residents, even government properties. She has a debt of one trillion dollars to pay now and they can’t afford it…” that was the voice of Zion.
A handful of fans mostly ladies of different shapes and color, interrupted Zion when they hounded me demanding for selfie photo shots and autograph.
I dedicatedly gave them their demands, ensured they dispersed before casting a stare at Sarah Canon. We had been at Rio Hondo beach for a warm picnic which Sarah demanded for. I would have to dance to her tune just to bring about my vengeance upon her.
My gaze was still on Sarah who was in a seductive bikini; swimming in the beach and locking eyes with me each time she made an eye-catchy move in the water.
“Zion!” I called amidst frown and sunshades on my eyes,
“Boss!” he replied and bowed afterwards.
“I don’t think you know who I am and what I am capable of doing, uh. Take a look at me properly.” I gestured at myself from head to toes, “Do I look like someone that has time for women let alone romance, uh? I thought by now you must have known who I am.” I raised my pad to his view, clicked it and a list of names came on the screen. These are names of my enemies, those that wrote me off, sent me to prison and maltreated me because I was poverty-stricken, those that divorced me…”
Zion added, “Like Melissa Fanny. You really dealt with that maggot, boss.”
I gave a firm nod, “Now you know what I am talking about , Zion. You can see how hot they got it from me. Right now Fanny Luis is chilling his ass in jail…” I groaned through clenched teeth.
“Yeah that reminds me: he recounted, tapping his head, “Just the other day while I drove past the road side you won’t believe who I saw.” Zion tossed his head severally in irritation.
“Who did you see, buddy. Speak on, I am all ears,” I replied and took off my sunshades anxiously.
“Melissa Fanny, your ex wife…” Zion sounded and lowered his gaze and shook his head in exaggerated sorrow and hurt, making me feel as though Melissa was in a deep mess, after my vengeance on them.
I patted on his shoulders just to encourage him to speak on, “Come on go ahead, Zion what about Melissa ? What is she up to now and perhaps she is back on her feet like she boasted ?’
Zion retorted, “Back on what?” he smiled briefly, “She would never get back on her feet. She is in for the worst, boss. I saw Melissa Fanny, your ex wife on the road side hawking fruit.” His voice beamed, before he burst into a radical laugh.
Promptly I joined him and laughed out my ass as we choked on our voices and could barely stop laughing, “Are you kidding me, uh?” I queried and clicked my finger, “I thought she had got tough skin against my vengeance.”
Zion gazed upon my pad and mumbled, “boss you really dealt with the fanny’s . You spelt Christmas on their ass. The moment I locked eyes with Melissa, she almost slumped. She wished the ground would open so she could jump in. She was so ashamed of herself that she didn’t know when the tray of fruit left her head and dashed on the road.”
I burst into another laugh and added, “Uh uh, you should have given her a penny or cent for the loss,” I mocked.
Zion barked, “To hell with her. She deserves what she is suffering today. She doesn’t deserve my cent. She can go ahead and perish in poverty.” Zion returned his gaze on my pad and tapped on the next name , which was Sarah Canon.
“Boss, Sarah Canon is the next on our list. What do you intend to do with the rotten maggot? Do you intend to send her to hell with fuel in her mouth?”
A mountain of frown clouded my face as I watched Sarah swim in the beach. I waved at her just to make her feel I was catching fun. But she didn’t know the devil’s broth I was preparing for her.
“Zion you just have to calm down and see what I would do to her. She thinks I have fallen in love with her. I know she wants to charm me and win my heart. But she doesn’t know I am the same ragged, poverty-stricken boy she wrote off some time ago, the same poor delivery boy she mocked and told to go to the road, stand and beg.”
Zion raised a thick brow, “What the hell! Did she tell you that?” he queried and when I gave a nod he added, “Boss I can’t wait to see you bring vengeance upon her. She is in a dire piece of bankruptcy now. The Canon group has gotten a free ticket to dine with the devil. With one trillion dollars debt to pay, I don’t think they would be able to find their way back to the hall of wealth…”
The moment I saw her parting the beach and advanced to our side, I reminded Zion, “She is coming. Keep pretending Zion. Play along with the dope ass.”
“Yes boss , I am in a cast pretense right now. I am really enjoying this revenge. Bitch!” he cursed once Sarah Canon started advancing to our side.
I smiled contagiously at her and she smiled back.
Zion took out his phone and said softly, “Boss you both look good together as husband and wife. How about a selfie photo together?” he stood out and gave us quick flashes with his phone.
“I got a surprise for you dear,” I said to Sarah.
“Oh I love surprises, sweetie,” Sarah replied, “What could that be?”
