"Dan," Justice called to the guard who failed to send Danica to the correct room. 

"Boss," Dan responded, his head bowed.

Justice strutted towards him and pulled out a revolver. "Do you realize your mistake? If Daniella was smart, we would have lost our money because of your silly mistake," he said through gritted teeth.

Dan remorsefully responded, "Yes boss, I'm sorry it won't happen again."

"You know that sorry doesn't work for me but you are right about one thing. It won't happen again," Justice said solemnly. He pulled the trigger and just like that, Dan's body dropped, dead, in a pool of blood.

Justice puffed his cigarette and said, "Clean up this mess," he called to his other guards, who seemed unperturbed at the turnout of events. To them, it was nothing new for justice. "This is what happens to anyone who makes a mistake. There would be no second chance. If Mr. Somo gets angry, someone else would have to pay," he said, spun around, and left, puffing on his cigarette.

*************

In Danica's best friend, Herty's house, Danica sat on the wooden floor and wailed like a widow. Regret replaying constantly in her mind. She cursed herself internally, as she recalled the events to Herty.

"I don't believe it. You mean, you lost your virginity to this stranger?" Herty exclaimed after listening carefully to Danica's words.

Danica sniffed and nodded. 

Her best friend Herty was lost for words.

"So, what will you do?" She asked in frustration.

Danica blew her nose with a tissue and threw it into the bin. Her eyes were red and puffy as she said, "Nothing. At least I managed to escape."

"Of course, without your virginity. What I mean is, what about your sister? Where is she and how could she do this to you?" Herty asked? Danica continued to sob, but this time softly, as she said,

"I haven't seen her but I did the right thing, right? At least she would come with us to church."

A frown crossed Herty's face as she spoke, "What if you are pregnant? What about Jones? You know the guy loves you and he loved the fact that you were pure. You two were made for each other," Herty reminded Danica, completely ignoring her question. At Danica's state, she couldn't expedite the fact and consequences of her actions. She had always admired Jones and they related on a friendly basis. Jones hadn't made his intentions clear to her.

"I have to forget about him. I'm not pure anymore," Danica said, her voice teary.

"Will you tell him?"

"No. In fact, I will stay away from him. We weren't courting anyway," Danica emphasized.

"But you will go for confession right?"
