"Eliza" he yelled
"what?"
"what is he doing here In your home?"
"who?"
"hey!" he yelled and she shrieked in fear
"why are you yelling at me, I only assisted an helpless man" she yelled back
"what? An helpless man"
"yes, after we left the police station, I discovered that he was homeless and I couldn't just live him to sleep on the street when I have the capability to accommodate him"
"okay fine, if you have felt that way, why didn't you call me"
"call you, what would you have done, lock him up"
"Eliza, I would have accommodated him for your sake"
"I didn't think about that"
"are you even alright, how can you be living alone with a man, have you lost your sanity?
"am not a kid"
"it is obvious you aren't" he said and shifted his attention to Calohun who was sitted on the couch. "Mr Calohun" he called and Calohun threw a cold look at him.
"what?" he asked and she scoffed
"please go in and pack your things"
"why?" Eliza asked and she threw an angry look at her
"am taking him to my house"
"why should I follow you to your house, I didn't come to you to Lodge a complain that am feeling uncomfortable"
"are you can complaining? begggars can't be choosers" he said and scoffed
"why do you keep putting your nose in other people's matter hm"
"she is not just anyone, she is my friend"
"James that's enough, why are you here?" Eliza cut in
"now you are also questioning me" he said irritatedly
"no, it is just unusual for you to come here like this, what if have gone to work"
"your boss told me you called in, that you weren't feeling well"
"how did you know that?"
"I went to a supermarket beside your company to visit someone, so I branched, he said you are sick,are you okay"
"I was thinking of visiting you today, I was adopted yesterday,by unknown men"
"what! adop- ted, you mean kidnapped" he yelled and she nodded her head
"how did you escape?"
"he rescued me" she said and pointed at Calohun
"he did?" James said and shifted his gaze back to Calohun.
"hm, I think there is no big deal with him staying with me"
"Eliza" he called
"am fine"
"did you see their faces"
"no it was dark"
"anything like their car plate number"
"no"
"Mr Calohun, you?"
"no"
"how do we track them down, but who could it be?"
"I don't know, am really confused"
"I will find them, don't worry"
"would you like a juice?" Eliza asked James
"don't worry, am fine, I just wanted to check on you"
"I called in sick because am still scared and traumatized"
"should I call Lizzy over?"
"don't scare her, you know how she is"
"still, you need her here"
"I have Calohun, don't worry"
"we still have a lot to talk about concerning him,but not today I would love us to discuss in private" he said and Calohun threw an angry look at him and he trembled. What wrong with me, he thought and took in a deep breath.
"okay, as you wish"
"I will call Lizzy" he said and brought out his phone and dialed Lizzy number.
"Hello" a feminine voice said
"hi Liz, how are you doing?"
"fine James, you?"
"good"
"am at Eliza's house now, she said she was adopted by unknown men"
"adopt-ted" Lizzy yelled
"hm"
"so what happened, how did she escape, where the men caught, who rescued her?"
"one question at time, Liz, you will get the answers to your questions when you get here"
"okay, is she hurt?" she asked worriedly
"no, just traumatized"
"of course she has to be, I will use nothing less than a month in the hospital if I get adopted"
"we will be expecting you"
"hm, bye"
"bye, expecting you" he said and hung up the call"
"I will wait for her, when she comes, I will leave"
"okay, so tell me about what happened yesterday"
"I went out to get something"
"at what time"
"around 8pm and while I was coming back, I got attacked, it happened so suddenly"
"do you have a CCTV camera in your street"
"I don't know, but I think we should, ask the security men"
"okay I will do that on my way back to work" he said and turned to Calohun whose eyes was was fixed on the television screen." you seem to be enjoying the television program" he said and Calohun shifted his gaze away from the television screen and landed it on him.
"what again" he said irritatedly
"how did you rescue her yesterday, did you see the men's faces?" he asked.
