"Where are you going to by this time of the night" fred asked, the manager of xion Group of company popularly known as XG company.

"Am going to get groceries, ok" Angel answered anxiously, hoping that Fred won't ask any more questions.

"Ok, don't be up late , remember that we have a meeting with biok company tomorrow"

"I won't" Angel said as left the house in tears.

"Am so sorry Fred, I had to lie to you, I don't want you to feel hurt like I felt many years ago.

As she walked down the lonely street heading to the minister's estate, she recalled her past.

******Flash back**************

"Dad, mom!! wake up, it's my birthday today, I am six years today" Angel said happily

"Honey we know that already, just let us sleep a little more" mom said with a sleepy voice

"Mom, it's 8am , get up" she said angryly, as she drew the curtain open letting the smell of fresh morning breeze into the room. They were forced to get up when they had a knock in the room

"Who is that" father asked

"Sir, breakfast is ready" said taina a maid in the house

"Set the table we will be down in a moment"he said.

"Angel! Remember your table manner's"dad said

"Hmmmmm,but dad i want to tell you the things I want for my birthday party" she pouted

"No way sweetheart after breakfast, then we can talk about it okay" said dad.

"I will go the mall and get her favorite chocolate cake" Leo said equally excited.

Leo is the first child of his parents and Angel's immediate elder brother.

"But the party will be in the evening when we are back from work" mom said putting up a little sad face

"Mom it's okay, it will give me time to invite my friends "she said as her parents stood up to leave

"Bye sweetie" mom said as she headed towards the door.

I was so excited that I couldn't wait for evening to come, I was just checking the time often and on, and o my gosh the time seem not to be moving any longer.

"Taina, it's evening, come and bring out my dress for the party"I called out with excitement. Then she brought out my gown.

A long ball gown made with luxurious fabric of silk material. A combination of pink and golden colored sequins with a trimmings of golden colored lace at the top of the gown make it look delicate and beautiful, It was indeed a unique master piece. The latest design of Arden's collection. Looking at my self in the mirror after dressing up I knew that i was looking gorgeous.

As I walked towards the hall just then Leo saw and said"you look beautiful"

"Thank you" I replied with a smile, Leo giggled as he walked towards dad and uncle sam who was my dad's younger brother. The three men stood there for a while and someone said" happy birthday honey" it was uncle sam's voice

"Thanks uncle" I said turning towards him

"You look breathe taking" I was about to reply when my bestie Linda ran towards me and said" wow you look gorgeous"

"Thanks"replying the two at once.

"It's time to cut the cake" Leo shouted.

Iran towards my cake which was decorated as a frozen cartoon. Leo gave me a knife but as I put the knife into the cake I noticed something was wrong, it seems like there is a metal in side the cake. I was about to call the attention of my parents when some men in black suit came in to the house, they scared everyone away from the party and so many other men came in, they were about twenty of them. I recognized one of them immediately, he was Mr dray the Minister.

He said to my dad in cold and harsh tone"sign this document and hand over your company to me"

"No, it's for my son, I can't do that" dad said in fear

"Only if you are going to leave there alive"

"Tie them up!" he ordered his men.

They tied us up but as they were about to tie mom up stopped them " let her go" he ordered again.

He looked at mom with lust in his eyes

"You look beautiful lady" he said as he touched her face mom threw her face away

"Let her go or I will kill you" dad yelled angryly

"Save her if you can " he said laughing devilish.

Then he striped off mom's clothes, she was totally naked in front of us all we could do is to beg him to let go of mom but all to no avail . Mom was sexually assaulted in front of us but we couldn't do anything, mom cried her eyes out and begged them to stop but they didn't stop until she couldn't move again.

"Good! I feel satisfied now"he said as he winked at dad

"Mom!mom!!mom!!! Get up?" I screamed in fear but she didn't make a move

"Pick her up and tie her as well" the minister ordered angryly

"Boss, she's dead" one of his men said

"Good for her" he unremorseful about what he did.

"Let's go boss, it's about to expload" a man said in fear.

They all ran out and zoomed off.

"Dad what's about to expload"I asked puzzled and still tied up.

Dad managed to untie him self and leo, leo untied me, we all ran to were mom was lying lifelessly, we called out to her but she didn't respond just then I noticed a pool of blood in between her thighs I screamed in fear"dad look!"

To my surprise dad saw it but didn't say anything.

"Angel take this phone,and get help" dad said in a cold and indifferent voice

"Okay" I replied as I took the phone and left the house to get help.

I heard the most hissing and horrible sound a little miles away, I stopped running instantly,I turned to see my house on fire I ran back but couldn't get close because of the heat. At that moment I couldn't take, couldn't scream, couldn't cry I just stood there like a moulded sculpture and watched my entire family burn to death.

"Average our death" dad said with pains and tears mixed in his voice. They all reduced to ashes before the fire service arrived. After everything has cooled down the police arrived and saw me standing, shaking in fear, they took me to the station for questioning, they tried to make me speak but all to no avail when they noticed that it was no use keeping me there they want to a mental asylum to overcome the truma. They started investigation and found out that the bomb was planted in the cake.
