They then forced him to give up his badge. They tortured my dad, a man who has served faithfully in the force. "Of course he wasn't!" She replied in anger. "Yes and when one criminal case went wrong, they didn't waste time to accuse him of being an accomplice" "Was he?" "My father served as a policeman for ten years" it's just that I've never been a fan of policemen" Rukky's visage turned into a sad one, Duro wondered why. "Let me not bore you with all this police crap" "Your sister is pretty much angry about it" "I just want to catch those who killed my brother" "How are you sure he was actually murdered?" "I don't know, some things don't just add up, I promise to catch whoever did this" Duro promised while Rukky kept quiet.

"Caroline I need your help ehn, please, did Bola engage in any fight with anyone in the course of the picnic?" "Who do you think might have tried to kill Bola?" Duro asked, "I don't know" "Not like I'm blaming anyone" She pointed out, "Seriously?" Duro asked in sarcasm. "No, Bola wouldn't let me in, it was one of his many secret and if there was one person he lets in with all of his crazy secret, it was you. There was a cold silence from Duro, "I'll take that as a no" "Cause he had pride so he sent you a message on his inbox, did you even open any?" You know very well Bolaji wanted nothing to do with me" "I still don't understand what happened between you two" Caroline stared suspiciously at him. "That's a lie, if he did, he would have called me. "Get in line! I've been making a lot of people angry" "How are you holding up?" He asked, "Duro we haven't seen since you came back, don't even ask me how I'm holding up cause I'm so angry at you" "I got your call and your reminder." She chipped in and Duro laughed.
