As he entered into the room he noticed Paul laid on the bed sleeping.
He tried not to wake him up as he slowly sat on the bed.
The thought of Colg swarmed into his head like a bunch of angry bees.
"What is wrong with Rick", Mrs. Rick asked looking directly at Velmont.
"If I were to guess, I would say that he misses Colg", Velmont mentioned with a cold grin on his face.
Velmont knew that Colg was one of Rick's best friends.
Infact, he knew that they could not be separated.
Even with all this information, he decided to lie to Mrs. Rick to spice a bit of drama.
"Colg was a woman by the way. According to the rumour on campus, Rick was flirting with her and having fun with her.
Soon enough, Colg was murdered by Rick on purpose", Velmont gasped as the rest of the union members looked at each other in confusion.
Andrew was the only one who broke the silence.
"Well I'm leaving", Andrew mentioned as he could not bear the vocal maltreatment bestowed on Mrs. Rick.
After Velmont was done talking, Mrs. Rick face tuened as red as a tomato.
She was absolutely furious.
Normally, she would not dare believe Velmont but the recent secrets that Mrs. Rick had discovered had led to a sudden downpour of trust in the efforts of Mrs. Rick.
Velmont loved to tease Rick, but not as much as he loved to steal good things from him.
He had been doing it all through their union days.
He would steal his union ID card, his respect in the union and sometimes completely ruined his privacy.
'Rick is always vulnerable when I'm around', Velmont thought to himself as he smiled while others looked at him with a shock and stunderred look.
Mrs. Rick carried all the dishes out of the table and rushed them into the sink.
Velmont realized the utter frustration of Mrs. Rick and felt like his planning was working out perfectly.
He then stood up to comfort her.
"Umm....You okay", Velmont responded as he placed his arms on Mrs. Rick shoulders. He was soon cut off his actions with an immediate slap on the face.
Pum
The slap broke through the air like a bottle that had shattered on the floor.
Velmont was so shocked that he was frozen to the ground.
He could not move as his eyes trembled and his fury began to reach new heights.
He grabbed a kitchen knife from the counter and stabbed Mrs. Rick on the rib area.
He was halted from doing more as his union members came to hold him back.
At that moment it was already about midnight and the union members were dragging Velmont out of the scene.
Golg witnessed the whole thing and loved the sites that he had to behold.
Mrs. Rick was left lying on the floor in pain as she slowly got, picked up her phone and called the police while she screamed in pain.
Velmont ran for his life in the dark after realising what he had just done.
'If Mrs. Rick won't accept me. I will make both her and Rick suffer', he thought as he kept on running.
All the union members ran behind him.
Velmont immediately dropped the knife after realising he still held it.
He nodded briefly as the sound of sirens soon sprung through the air and lighted the area.
Rick heard the sounds of his union members in a tussle but supposed that it was just a minor argument that he should not get involved in.
When he heard the screams of Mrs. Rick echo through the walls, he could not bear it anymore.
He jumped out of the bed and ran towards where the sound was coming from.
Once he reached the scene, he dropped to a knee and began crying.
The sight was unfortunate to behold.
Blood was gushing out of Mrs. Rick's rib area. Fortunate for her, the place stabbed was not too violent. She could survive but she needed treatment immediately.
Rick called the ambulance and the police as usual. "Look, no time to explain but my wife is on the floor with blood gushing out of her ribs.
I fail to believe that this was just an accident. Pls get your best men on the job pronto", Rick reported ecstated as he grabbed the first aid kit in his house and waited for the ambulance to arrive.
The worry and fear that Rick had thought he had left behind months ago all came rushing back.
He could not afford losing his wife. All the betrayal and regret for this.
He began to ponder why he wouldn't have told his wife earlier about the whole situation.
'Maybe she would have being happy. Maybe she wouldn't have being in this situation', Rick blasted to himself as the blood kept flowing down through the ribs.
He never felt confident about his union members coming over but the sudden state of his wife exceeded all expectations.
He managed to dry up must of the blood falling from her body but Mrs. Rick was still in pain and in desperate need of attention.
Finally, the medics and ambulances had arrived next in line to the police.
The ambulance rushed out, put Mrs. Rick in a safety bag and directed her towards the van while some others stayed back and thanked Rick for his support.
"You've done well with your first aid work. We can take it from here", one of the ambulance crew established and he stretched out his hand for a shake.
Rick responded by shaking the hand of the crew member as he rushed out of the scene.
The police rushed out and began pondering about the situation.
There was blood all over the floor.
Even though Rick had called the police, he was still the only one on the scene when the incident happened and so got arrested for questioning.
The investigators meanwhile, stayed back to offer help to the police and their investigations.
Rick was dragged into the car.
"No Pls, I have to see my wife. I have to be there for her. I'm innocent, Pls don't do this to me", was screamed by Rick in his attempt and struggle to be freed, all of which where to no avail.
He was put into the police car and locked up while Mrs. Rick was driven into one of the best hospitals in the city.
All the sirens, screaming, shouts in pain and struggle of the police officers woke up many in the neighbourhood one of which being Thomas.
He walked out of his house and witnessed about three police cars around the neighbourhood and Rick being dragged into the police vehicle screaming for consent.
He could not behold what was going on so he walked up to ask a few questions.
"Don't come in here. Can't you read. Do Not Cross", a police officer mocked as he laughed and walked away, eyes directly on the scene of the crime.
Thomas couldn't directly see the incident that had happened in the house but he seemed to notice the stream of blood flow through the house entrance.
'What the hell happened here?'.
