LOVE IN THE SHADOWS - PART 5

 

EPISODE 9: THE ESCAPE

Dimeji grabbed her hand. “Come on.”

They rushed to the back door just as footsteps echoed outside.

Adesewa’s heart pounded as Dimeji led her into the alleyway. “Who are they?”

“No time to explain.”

They ran until they reached the main road. Dimeji hailed a taxi, shoving her inside.

As they drove away, Adesewa looked back.

The men were standing outside Tunde’s apartment.

Watching. Waiting.

Dimeji’s jaw tightened. “They know we have the USB.”

Adesewa swallowed hard. “What’s on it?”

Dimeji looked at her, his eyes dark. “The reason your brother died.”

EPISODE 10: THE TRUTH UNVEILED

Back at a safe house, Dimeji plugged the USB into his laptop.

A video popped up. It was grainy, but the voices were clear.

A man sat at a table, speaking in hushed tones. “If this gets out, we’re finished.”

Then, Adesewa’s breath caught.

Because the man sitting across from him… was Tunde.

Dimeji paused the video. “Your brother was working undercover. He found out something powerful people didn’t want exposed.”

Adesewa’s hands shook. “And now, they think I have the answers.”

Dimeji looked at her. “This isn’t just about revenge anymore. It’s about survival.”

She took a deep breath. “Then let’s finish what Tunde started.”

Dimeji’s lips curled into a slow smile. “I was hoping you’d say that.”

Because now, the real fight was just beginning.

The End… or Just the Beginning?
