The Maid
Chapter 38
I stayed at home for two weeks until the Christmas and New year celebrations were over.However I never told my mum that I had been sacked and that I was living with Karanja,my biological dad in Nairobi.She couldn’t even guess I was jobless because of the shoppings and money that I gave her.I knew if I mentioned something like that she could not let me go back to Nairobi.
Days passed and I returned to Nairobi,to my father’s house.I enrolled in Adult school to continue with my secondary education where I used to learn part time.
One evening as was busy doing my home work ,I received a call from Stanley claiming that he had missed me and that he wanted to see me in private so that I could give him my goodies.
" Am sorry I did what I did but we can forgive each other and continue “,Stanley had told me on phone.
" Am not interested ,concentrate with your wife,I can’t give you pussy again” I answered sounding harsh to discourage him.
Its during this conversation I told him I needed some money from him because I had something that belonged to him.
“What do you mean you have something that belongs to me and you need money?”, Stanley asked me curiously. That’s when I sent him the clip of the video I had recorded as he screwed me via WhatsApp.
" Grace! Can you delete that video with immediate effect or I report you to the police" he threatened me.
"Yes sir am willing to delete it after you give me some money,failure to which I will send it to your wife and also release it online ", I told him politely
" Grace ,how much are you talking about ,because I have been giving money even without all this,do you know the impact of the video to my career and my future expectations of vying for a political seat.
“Yes I know sir ,and am happy you also know the impact of the content I have so please behave before I do the unexpected”, I told him confidently.
I was so confident because Monica’s blackmail was very successful and I was optimistic that even Stanley’s case would be a walk in the park because I knew he was rich and he had a lot money.
" So what’s your price if I may ask",Stanley asked me.
“Just a million in cash and I will delete it and never hear from me again”, I said without even stammering. I knew what I wanted.
Stanley seemed to be very co operative and even asked me when I wanted the money.
" Friday at 2pm at Kenya archives in the city,no games no police,if you try anything stupid I will just send the video to your wife and also release it online,I think you know what that means…",I told him and hanged up.
That Friday I had a class at 11am ending at 1pm.I didn’t even get the concepts in class as I was very anxious about the whole idea.
I was eagerly waiting that call ,a call that was to change my life and change it forever.
All I could see when I closed my eyes was briefcase full of one thousands notes.
“At exactly 1:30 Stanley called me.” Hey your package is ready,where are you?",Stanley asked me immediately I received the call.
“On my way, meet you at 2pm exactly without fail ,remember no games”, I told him and hanged.
All this time I was resting at Jevagee gardens waiting for the time move though that one hour was too long for me.
At 1:50 I was at the kencon stage as usual so as to have a clear view of Stanley as he arrives.
" Hello am at Kenya archives and I can’t seem to trace you ,where are you",Stanley informed as I looked around to try and trace him and eventually I saw him passing his eyes around looking for me.
I had tried looking for Tony to request him to do the deal for me but his phone was off and he was not on his Job place.
I decided to risk and do the deal on my own ,“I can see you ,am coming “, I told him.
Stanley was holding a small briefcase where I guessed the money was.When he saw me he just smiled,” hello grace its pleasure meeting you again”,he said politely.“Give me my money I need to go”,I told him with a serious look on my face.“How sure am I that when I give the money you will delete the content from the phone”,He asked me."This is a deal,no games remember ",I assured him as he handed me the money.
I opened and peeped a little and it was a pure deal the case was full of pure 1000notes.I gave him a faint smile as I turned to leave.
" Don’t try to move,hands up you are under arrest for blackmail and extortion ,You have the right to remain silent as anything you say now can and shall be used against you in the court of law",a thunder like male voice yelled at me as guns cocked around my head…
