Chapter 1
The other side
Julie Sanders was at it again. She tapped her fingers in wrath, gesticulating at the time. The unfortunate fellow to have a taste of her wrath was her new employed pilot. She preferred to call him a driver, but her profession and courtesy demands she addressed him as a pilot.
She cupped her cheek and sighed in exasperation. His phone was off and God knows it was good news for him.
Finally, he arrived. He took a little more time to adjust his bold tie, he needed to appear well before his mistress, else he risk the chance of getting sacked.
“Madam I…”
“What is the time you peasant?”
He was taken aback and tried to steal a quick glimpse of the wall clock ticking behind him.
“Oh, I’m so sorry madam, my wristwatch is bad, I didn’t notice”
She smiled, that was strange. And he knew it was trouble.
“Hand over the keys”
“But…”
“Now!”
He handed it over and she made it official.
“Mr John or whatever you are called, you are fired!”
And there went her 24th pilot.
She took the dark limousine and drove herself to the red carpet event.
She was the star of the show so she had to appear her best.
It took her another 30minutes to reapply her make up. She had the announcement requesting her presence but who cares? They would wait. She had an award to collect, so she had to look her best.
And finally, when she was satisfied with looks, she confidently alighted from the car and got the attention of the media and the massive crowd instantly.
She was the best in her modelling career; and this was the 7th award she was taking home for the past 7years. Well of course there has been other awards, but the best model in Africa was the award she treasured most. And yes she would trample on anyone to get it back to back, every year.
“And so, this year award of miss Africa goes to Julie Sanders, again”
Julie read an abash meaning to the last words of the host. He didn’t look too happy that he was handling the award to the same person he did for over 7years. But she didn’t care. She deserves it. And she would have what she deserves.
She took good shots with her extravagant and susceptible gold gown.
her fame traveled far and wide. Company’s and organizations pleaded to use her for an advert, media houses struggled to get an autograph and an interview.
“I am the best, I am the desire of every one…always remember that”
She shot at a model who dare stepped into her office without knocking.
Vero couldn’t understand how her offense warranted Julie to remind her of her fame and achievements, but she dare not oppose.
“Am sorry madam”
“What do you need?”
Vero swallowed a lump of saliva, she contemplated on the message she was about to deliver. She was the personal assistant (PA) to Julie at Prada designers, where Julie was made head Fashion designer.
“Madam, it’s Jack wilshere from Silver advertising company, he is here again”
Julie long hiss and the frown that followed made Vero retrace her steps and attempted to hurry out of the office when Julie called.
“On a second thought, send the idiot in”
Jack was one man that has constantly pester her to feature in his advert. It was a big step to get his project approved and win the contract worth millions; he just had to get her, his opponent was not one to toy with. But, he met a bulwark.
“Madam good…”
Julie right hand in the air, pointing out a stop signal made him halt.
“Jack, whatever. What’s your fucking problem, I’m not your class, I certainly can’t be featured by a cheap ass like you…I mean look at the way you are dressed dude”
Jack had to re check himself. He was smartly dressed on his wing tip suit with his portfolio to tag with his silver wristwatch.
“Madam, if you would just give me a chance, my mother really needs the money to have an operation”
Jack didn’t care if he was too open about his real reason why he needed the money. Because, right now, there was no other option.
Julie thought she was almost caught of guard when she felt a little sympathy. But then, she concluded he wanted to take advantage of her human sympathy.
“Get out you fraud. You think you can deceive me? I can’t believe you would stoop so low to have a taste of what you are not worth”
Her words sank deep into him. It replayed in a way that he couldn’t bare.
“Julie…
He suddenly called her by name
“Soon, your throne would be taken from you. You would be in my shoes, and you would know what it means to lose someone. You would feel my pain”
Julie couldn’t believe this man. She got so infuriated.
“Vero! Get me security”
She made sure Jack was locked up for his insult in a police cell for a couple of days. He missed his advert presentation and lost the contract.
Julie only released him when his sister came pleading to her office.
It was too much to bear. She had hurt too many people, although she didn’t see it that way.
“Why did you lock him up? You are such a bitch”
Siera lashed at her.
Siera was her only friend who was never scared of her. And Julie loved her so much, she could sacrifice anything for siera.
“What? He insulted me”
“But you said it yourself, he had his mother in an hospital”
“Who cares Siera? Who helped me when my parents both died of internal bleeding after the accident? Who helped when my only brother died of starvation! No one, so why should I help him?”
Siera paused when Julie went in rage again and threw her glass of wine at the wall.
“Is that why you fired your new pilot?”
Another issue that made Julie scoffed.
“Siera the guy is a zombie, I can’t work with him”
“Julie, that is the 24th pilot I stress my ass to get for you”
Julie attempted to defend herself again but Julie was quick to continue.
“Julie, you can let the pain of the past to affect your present, don’t you see? You are hurting everyone around you because of your past, please Julie, I will continue to tell you the truth. Change your ways”
Julie was quiet as she backed Siera to face the tainted glass window from her apartment.
Siera was hoping she got to Julie this time, but as expected, Julie threw it back at her face.
“Get out”
“Julie…
“Get out now!…”
Although she acted like Siera words didn’t get to her, she couldn’t stop her words from reverberating in her mind.
And then she slept that night, totally ignorant of what had occurred in darkness. She opened her eyes the next morning and saw her body surrounded by hoodlums.
“What the hell…?”
She ran to them and screamed on top of her voice. But, they didn’t hear her. Infact, they went thru her. Her eyes went wide when she realised the worst has happened.
A woman with a white cloak called from behind her.
“Julie, welcome to the other side”..
The other side
Chapter 2
Jack read the news; he had tried to sell some of his treasured belongings to pay for his mother’s leukemia chemotherapy. But he was rather too late now. She passed on and tagged him an orphan, being the only son of both his deceased parents.
Frank had persuaded him to a bar to drink his sorrows away. It was there he read the newspaper of his enemy declared missing.
His eyes was a little blur but he was certain he read well.
He chuckled, but he wasn’t satisfied. He had wanted to make her pay, he had wanted to cause her so much pain. But since karma has decided to take laws into its hand, well, he couldn’t help but smile at the sight of it.
“What’s funny? She is a fellow human, where is your conscience?”
Frank words were full of spite.
“What? I hope she rots in hell. That bitch is the reason I lost my contract, the reason I lost my mother”
“Why? Because she refused your advert proposal? Come on Jack, you can’t blame that on her…there are other models that would have made the cut”
Jack anger kindled that he rose to fling off the table that carried the bottles of beer.
An uproar arosed and with haste the waitress and bartender approached with words welled up in their mouth.
“Hold on, I’ll pay for the damages”
Frank’s words were satisfactory and the waitress went on to calculate the loss.
“Frank, I begged that bitch. She even locked me up! I could not attend my presentation!”
Frank waited till he was done ranting in pain.
“Ok Jack, I get you, let’s get back home”
****
Julie ignored the voice calling her from behind. She lingered and followed the men on mask as they threw her body into the boot of an dark SUV and drove to a ship in wait.
She couldn’t believe this, they took her body to an abandoned island and threw her out like some rag.
This was well planned. Who would have done this to her?
Is she dead? Why is it impossible for them to hear her? What was really happening?
She was still trying to figure these questions.
She followed back in the ship, back to sea shore where Siera was waiting…
Wait, Siera…? What was she doing here?
“It’s done madam”
One of the men in the mask said as he revealed his identity when he pulled off his mask. It was her pilot, the one she fired not up to 24hours ago.
“Good job David”
Siera commended and handed him a bundle of cash.
“Oh my God! Siera you bastard. Siera!”
Julie charged at Siera in her usual wrath but Siera simply went thru her, she was just like an air with an invisible smoke.
She fell to her knees. She tried to cry but even tears were not surfacing.
“Oh my God, I’m…I’m de…dead?”
The woman called out again.
“Julie, welcome to the other side”
Julie took a good look now. She stood up and approached the woman.
“Who are you?”
The woman had no eyes, her face was blank and it somehow scared Julie.
“I am the gate keeper, it’s high time you stop your roaming about and join the others”
Julie took a few steps backwards with a shake of her head in disagreement.
“I am not dead”
“Yes you are”
“I am not!!”
“Face it Julie, you are dead”
“I order you to leave my presence!”
The gate keeper couldn’t help but laugh now.
“Oh poor Julie, over here, you have no say, your fame and Authority died with you. Here you are nothing”
She took another good look at Julie and then revealed her face to frighten her even more.
“Ma please, I can’t be dead, please do something”
The gate keeper showed no sign of remorse to her pleas. She was about to get at Julie and send her straight to the darkness that wield lost souls when a Savior appeared and with a quick flash, stole Julie from the gatekeeper.
“Who are you?”
Julie asked the moment she discovered she had been rescued to a safe location.
“Me? I’m Joan, a lost soul. Just like you”
Joan had a large scar on her forehead. It was obvious that she was in haste.
Julie swallowed a lump of saliva.
“What’s that on your forehead, and what is the meaning of a lost soul?”
Joan touched her forehead to explain.
“This, is how I was murdered, with an axe”
Julie nodded but had not gotten the full explanation.
“We are lost cos we were killed before our appointed time”
“Ok, who was that woman? And why is she after me?”
“Simple, you were evil on earth and you hurt too many people, your punishment is darkness of torment, I saved you because we are in the same shoes, I lived the life of a cultist, I killed people, and I got killed by my best friend. The gate keeper has been after me for months now…”
Julie had to interrupt.
“Wait wait wait, I don’t understand. What going on? I’m not dead. I just slept last night and….”
“Face it rookie, you are D-E-A-D…dead…”
Joan held Julie to stand on her feet.
“And now I helped you cos you still have a slim chance of going back to the world. But you must promise me one thing”
Julie became so attentive, going back was not even an option to her, it was a necessity.
Joan continued
“I can’t go back, because my body has long been spotted. I would explain everything, but if you succeed. I would need you to avenge me, do we have a deal?”
Though Julie had not fully understood what she meant, but whatever it was, it was good news, one she was willing to do anything for
“Ok, deal”
She replied
