PIZZA GIRL
CAROLINE
I sat in the hallway all alone. I couldn’t think straight. I needed to find Klaus as soon as possible. Why would he do this to Diana. My only daughter.
“Ma’am Caroline.” I heard someone call and I looked up to see Enoch.
“Hey Enoch.” I said as he sat next to me smiling.
“Ma’am can I ask you something?” He asked and I narrowed my eyes in suspicion.
“Go on.” I said.
“Why is Klaus after Diana’s life?” He asked and I smiled knowing that was what he would want to ask.
“You can tell your mother that I am not ready to have this chat.” I said standing up.
“She didn’t send me Ma’am Caroline. I came here because I cared for Diana.” He said and I smriked.
“You and I know that you have never cared for anyone before.” I said walking away.
I walked back to ward to look at Diana, and I saw Isaac walk out.
Immediately he saw me, I saw his contenance change from the initial one.
“Mrs Caroline, can I please talk to you?” He asked and I sighed knowing he wanted to ask about Klaus.
“Are you here for Klaus too?” I asked.
“Too? Who has come to you before?” He asked with his gaze narrowed.
“Enoch came to ask me about him, but I told him nothing. I don’t trust him.” I said and he sighed.
“That Bastard. Ma’am Caroline please tell me what really happened between you and Klaus. I need to know so as to keep Diana safe. We need to know what to tell the cops.” He said and I nodded.
“I trust you. I will tell you and I hope you get to him on time.” I said and he nodded smiling.
“Sit.” I said and he sat. I sat next to him and then stared into space recalling everything again.
“When Jacob and I had issues, I got married to Elisha. Before we got married, I had the problem of choosing one of the brothers.”
“I knew I loved Elisha, but when he wasn’t around, or we had issues. Klaus was always there to make me happy and by mistake we had a moment.”
“I told him that it was just a mistake, but he never took it that way. He claimed to love me more than his brother Elisha.”
“I opened up to Elisha because I couldn’t afford keeping any secrets from him. Elisha had a fight with his brother Klaus and sent him packing.”
“Klaus became angry with the both of us and he promised me one thing. That he was going to take the most precious thing I have in my life away from me.”
“When I and Elisha had a fight, I had always told Klaus how much I loved Diana. Though she wasn’t with me, nor I with Jacob, but I still loved her so much.”
“Do from this, Klaus knew that the most precious thing In my life is Diana.” I narrated before looking at Isaac.
“So if he wants to take Diana from you, why now? I believe that was a long time ago.” He said and I nodded.
“We met recently. He still kept telling me how much he loved me, he didn’t get married because of me. I made him understand that I didn’t feel anything for him anymore. It was then, and I was just naive.”
“He just hurt again, and then made that same statement of taking the most precious thing in my life. I got so scared that I didn’t even invite him to my party.”
“So he came without invitation?” He asked.
“I don’t know Isaac. I didn’t see him at the party at all but he is the only one I can think of.” I said and he sighed.
“When was the last time you saw?” He asked
“A day before my birthday. He flew into the town and then I was on my way to work when he saw me.” I said and he nodded.
“Thank you Ma’am Caroline.” He said standing up.
“Hold on Isaac. You can’t use the cops against him.” I said and he arced his brows.
“Why?” He asked.
“You have no evidence. All these are just Stories. They believe they can be said anytime, anywhere.” I said and he nodded.
“Yes that’s true. Do you know where he is now?” He asked and I shook my head.
“No I don’t. But Elisha should know. They are on good terms now.” I said.
“Perfect. Please ask him. I will come back for the feedback.” He said and walked away.
I picked up my phone and dialed Elisha’s number. He picked up on the third ring.
Hey baby
Hi, how are you?
I am good. Still at the hospital though.
How is Diana?
Good. She would be discharged today.
That’s great news.
Yes. Elisha I need ask you something.
What’s wrong?
Nothing. I just need to know if you have seen Klaus anywhere.
Klaus? Klaus has been out of the country a day before your birthday.
What? He didn’t attend the party?
Not at all. He told me he saw you in your way to work before flying out.
Wow. I thought he was at the party.
Of course not. If he was there we would have seen him. What’s going on?
Nothing Baby. Just wanted to be sure. I will call you later.
I hung up staring at the screen of my phone.
“If Klaus wasn’t there, then who could have thought of poisoning Diana?” I thought in confusion.
TBC …
So Klaus wasn’t at the party
More secrets to unfold.
