“Who’s that ?,” asked a blindfolded Sifiso , who hears footsteps coming towards his prison cell.” Queit Mr Mathebula, Its me officer Samantha,” whispered the policewoman unlocking Sifiso’s prison cell.” what do you want from me ?,” Sifiso asked.” I am going to help you escape prison , in return I want your help with something ,” said the policewoman uncuffing Sifiso’s hands. ” Keep your eyes blindfolded Mr Mathebula, I dont want any tragedies,otherwise You will kill my mother ,thats the woman I hate with all my heart,She left me in an orphanage when I was still a baby” begged the officer.” You want me to help you with what exactly ,” Sifiso hesitated.” I have a daughter who was raped last year and refuses to name the man who assaulted her,” said the police officer , sneaking Sifiso out of his prison cell by dressing him in police uniform and disguising him as a policeman. ” I think my daughter sees her rapist as the worst enemy in her life but is afraid of telling the truth,” she said.” In short , I want you to use your curse to look inside my daughters soul and kill the man who raped her,” explained the officer , driving out of prison with Sifiso Mathebula hidden at the back of a police van.
” Officer Samantha, can I borrow your cellphone, I need to call my lawyer,” begged Sifiso.” Okay dont stay too long on the call , I need to switch it off before they track our location,” replied the policewoman handing the cellphone device to Sifiso.”Hello, who am I speaking to? ,” asked Sifiso”s lawyer on the other side of the call.” Shadrack , its me ! ,” Sifiso said.” Mr Mathebula Sir , where are you ? the entire police force is looking for you , they made you the most wanted criminal right now ,” his lawyer said.” I cant tell you on the phone Shadrack , we might be tracked , I got to go somewhere and hide for a while ,” Sifiso said.” Mr Mathebula Sir, our criminal associates in the drug ; gun supply chain business; human organ sales and Nigeria crime lords; both local and international crime connections are worried sick about this ,” replied the lawyer.” What are they saying Shadrack?,” a worried Sifiso asked.” They fear that you might expose them to the police , they want you out of the criminal organization Sir,” the lawyer said.” Look Shadrack, I need you to assure all our crime associates , that I am loyal to the Criminal Underworld, I wont sell them out,” Sifiso said.” Alright Sir , I am not promising anything but I will do my best ,” replied the lawyer.
Officer Samantha and Sifiso finally arrive at her house.” Okay Mr Mathebula, I am going to pull over by my house and quickly sneak you into the garage,” said the policewoman climbing off the van.” Who is inside the house , I don’t want any surprises,” replied Sifiso , jumping off the back of the police van. ” Only my fifteen year old daughter is in the house, trust me you are perfectly safe with me ,” assured the policewoman.” Okay can I take this blindfold off my eyes , its been too long without sight,” Sifiso asked.” Okay Mr Mathebula but please be careful not to stare directly into my eyes , the only person you should look at is my daughter,” said the policewoman.
” Zoleka honey, I’m home ,” shouted Samantha , knocking on the door with her middle finger entering through the living room. ” Hey mom , I am almost done cooking supper ,” replied her daughter who was in the kitchen, ” You look awful baby, are you having nightmares again?,” asked a concerned looking Samantha.” No mom , Im totally fine , I’m just a bit exhausted , thats all,” said Zoleka , placing a table cloth on a stove.” I want you to meet someone baby ,” said officer Samantha , pulling her daughter by the hand walking to the living room.
” Hi Zoleka , your mom have told me a lot about you ,” said Sifiso , shaking hands with Samantha’s daughter.” I’m Sifiso Mathebula, I am here to find out who assaulted you,” said Sifiso.” Mom, how could you betray me like this , you know I dont like talking about this ,” cried Zoleka, with her face buried into both hands.” I want to find the bastard who did this to you, Is that too much to ask ?,”exclaimed Samantha staring at her daughter walking away from her.
” Fuck ! ,” exclaimed officer Samantha slamming a fist on the table.”No need to worry officer Samantha, I have seen the man who raped your daughter,” Sifiso said.” Who is it? , tell me the bastard’s name! ,” barked officer Samantha , with an increase pitch in her voice.” Your own husband molested your daughter since she was five years old,” Sifiso said.” What?,thats impossible Mr Mathebula ,” officer Samantha froze a bit , her eye brows raised with both hands on on her mouth.” I dont believe you Mr Mathebula, how will I be sure you are telling me the truth?,” asked officer Samantha.”Ask your daughter , you will see that I’m telling you the truth, and also know that your husband died a minute ago,” Sifiso said.
Suddenly the door bell started ringing.”who’s that knocking on your door officer ,” asked a suspicious Sifiso, glancing sideways, hiding himself in the bathroom out of fear.”I’m expecting nobody today,” replied officer Samantha walking to answer the person knocking on her door.It was a traffic cop , with a letter on his hands.” Are you Mrs Samantha Mahlangu ?,” asked the traffic cop.”Yes is me , how can I help you Sir?,” officer Samantha asked.” I have heartbreaking news ma’am but your husband was involved in a fatal car accident, he died a moment ago,” said the traffic cop.
