Chapter Thirty Five
The night was calm and peaceful, I slept like a baby. Keddy promised to bring my Iphone, and instructed me to dispose the one I was currently using. Tracking me was impossible, since they didn't have a picture of my real face, neither did they have my house address, nor my fingerprint or retinal scan. Keddy and Pedro would get into trouble, not me. "I will visit you in two days time, when I do, I'll come with your phone. It's been switched off all this while, I bet your friends miss you." His last message was the first thing that rang in my head as I stretched on the bed. A smile lit up my face, and my day.
"Good morning, sis." Nancy greeted me.
"Nana." I made up a nickname for her in my head immediately. "How was your sleep?"
"Peaceful. Camilla, no one but papa used to call me Nana."
"Does it make you uncomfortable?"
"No, I'm totally cool with it. Did you sleep well?"
"Like a log of wood." We both giggled after I said that, she climbed down from the bed, and I did same. "I wanna go shower right now, I have an operation today."
"You mean we?"
"Yes, we. But I'm the one going first, remember? I'll call for backup when I need."
She nodded in affirmation. "We'll be there when you call." I smiled.
I walked into the bathroom, and stared at the mirror passionately. I was seeing a beautiful woman staring back at me, her alluring smile, her gap teeth, her beautiful smile, her long hair, her bony cheeks, everything about her was beautiful.
Slowly, I lifted my toothbrush from it's place and began to clean my teeth delicately, pausing to spit the foam into the sink.
When I was satisfied with the image of the diastema in the mirror, I put some water in my mouth, and rinsed my mouth, then spit the water into the sink.
Next, I got into the bath. Passionately, I lathered my skin. I scrubbed my body with my sponge, and turn on the shower to wash the foam off.
I got out of the shower a few minutes later, feeling so confident. I didn't wash my hair yet, I was going to do that last.
After I had washed my hair, I strapped my towel around my body. It covered my breasts, down to my laps. And I walked into the bedroom to get dressed.
"So quickly?"
"Lol, I took so much time actually." The clock on the wall said I spent just seven minutes in the bathroom, but I could swear i took an hour in there.
She smirked, but said nothing.
I applied my skin care lotion in a circular pattern, and other skin care products after I was done moisturizing my skin. I felt like wearing makeup, but I had none, so I asked Nancy to lend me some of hers. Our skin tone differed a little bit, but it didn't matter.
I put the foundation on, then a little bit of the powder, did my brows, and wore orange lipstick. That was all for me.
"Done?"
"Yes, done."
"Are you serious, Cammie?"
"Oh please." I stood in front of the full frame mirror and smiled at the pretty lady.
And then, I walked to my wardrobe to select outfits for the day. It was a special day, possibly a day that I would end my father and his gang men, or a day that they would end me.
I wasn't putting on any fake face mask, I was going out there with my real face to end this once and for all.
My plans were already made, and I was confident that it was a full proof plan.
I picked a black jean pants, and a brown crop top shirt to go with black sneakers.
After I had slid into the outfit, I felt like the most beautiful woman in the whole world.
I headed to the living room, and I could stop pausing to gaze at the stunning woman in front of the many mirrors that hung on the way to the living room.
When I got to the living room, I saw Kate sitted and drinking. She was with her phone as well.
"Good morning, sister." I was done fighting with her. Whatever made me desperate for revenge must have been related to the fact that I lacked love. But I was sincerely hoping that she had learnt her lessons.
"Hello, Cammie." She smiled and looked up from her phone. "How was your rest?"
"I slept like a baby."
"Breakfast is ready, and in the kitchen. I have it all dished out, yours is covered with the steel plate cover."
"Thanks so much sis." I paddled to the kitchen, and settled on the seat in front of the plate she described. Wait! A thought hit me.
Why was mine in a different plate?
Why did she cover mine with a special cover, but the rest had the same cover.
What if she had poisoned mine?
I did a swapping that I was certain would expose her if she had done anything to hurt me. That's it it didn't hurt her instead, then I settled to have my breakfast.
I finished in a little While, and washed the dish and cutleries that I used to eat.
"Thanks a lot sis, I enjoyed the meal."
"You are welcome." She smiled at me. "You recall you have an operation today, you should leave soon."
"I will." I yawned like I was getting dizzy, and stretched. "Is Vivian awake yet? I'd like to tell her that I'm leaving now."
"No, not yet. She is still sleeping."
"Says who?" Vivian emerged in her sleeping outfit. "It's almost 7 in the morning, I don't sleep for so long."
"Good morning queen." I greeted her and I meant it. I had no business replacing her as the queen, I was suddenly loosing interest in being a Mafia Gangsters, talk less of being their queen.
"Hello, hunny." She responded, and walked to the kitchen. From where I stood, I saw her open the food intially meant for me. The food I had assumed that Kate poisoned.
