IN LOVE WITH MY STEP SEASON 3 EPISODE 4

 Episode 4 – The Assassin part 2

 Author’s POV
Don’t judge people by their look or what they do, most times people actions are based on what pain they face. Wait to hear their own side of the story.

Assassin – Don’t move Farad, I don’t want to hurt you.. I Just want to talk

When he spoke I knew that it was a Feminine gender behind the mask and my first thought was is she the assassin? How did she pass those guards outside.

Farad – How did you know my name?

Assassin – (remove her mask) I know everything about you Zubairu Farad and I’ll need your help.

How can an assassin need my help? I kept on asking rhetorical questions in my head. Looking at her face she was so beautiful and no one could ever believe she is so strong or even have the nerves to hurt a fly. But here she is, a trained serial killer.

Farad – What help?… Who are you?

Assassin – This is quite early for a discussion so I’ll make it snappy and I need you to trust me.

Farad – Okay, (since she’s a beautiful girl I had to act brave once again)

Assassin – My name is Sofiat and I’m the Assassin like you know already. We both have a common enemy “Rasheed”

Farad – I see… That’s why you killed all his men?

Assassin – Yeah, I know you will figure it out. Rasheed is a smart guy, we both had history until he murdered my aunt in cold blood. I had no option but to raise again.

Farad – I’m so sorry about your aunt

Assassin – Not to worry, I have gone pass it!. (She kept her gun behind her and was starring at me) I love your courage Farad and I wish I was here when you stage a fight with the Boss (Rasheed). You’re really brave. But you know he’s an assassin we are all about target than strength.

Farad – You seem to know much about me..

Assassin – I told you earlier. I know everything about you and in the future we are good friends.

Farad – What make you think that?

Assassin – Because John told me

Farad – who is John?

Assassin – John is the reason I’m here and on this timeline he’s your friend and his name is Adeiza.

Farad – you can’t be serious my friend Adeiza

Assassin – That science freak! Soon you’ll know him better.

I smiled… In just a short while I already had my hopes up and I seem to like this Sofiat (Assassin).

Sofiat – You’ve been through alot in the past months.. you were in coma for 3 months.

Farad – yes it was a sad experience… Thanks to God I came back.

Sofiat – Yeah… You and Zara, the love bond is really strong.

Farad – Yeah

Sofiat – but my experience is more terrible. I was in coma for 3 years.

Farad – that’s a very long time… Tell me what happened? And what brought you back?

Sofiat – That’s a story for another day my friend… Time is running and soon it would be dawn.

Farad – Okay… How will you get pass the guards?

Sofiat – (smiled) That’s my little secret… I’ll see you tomorrow.

Farad – Okay dear… (I winked at her)

I felt so much joy knowing her and I couldn’t detect why, maybe we were meant to be friends after all. I didn’t close my eyes until after subhi prayer. And when I eventually woke up at 9am, I asked myself..
WAS THIS A DREAM?.. to confirm it was not, Zara came to my room to wake me up.

Zara – Hey! Asalamu alaikum babe. I hope you slept well?

Farad – Sure I did

Zara – Okay… You woke up a bit late than usual. Hope you’ve prayed.

Farad – Yes my love…

Zara – Time to get up… You have a visitor

Farad – Visitor?? What’s her name?

Zara – Sofiat

WHATTT ??? IT’S NOT A DREAM!!!
