An eye for an eye .

Doctor Tatiana and father Rivas confirmed that a certain colonel in the army named Baragan had been paying people to harass the boys and girls who were integrated in their program , a program in place to help the boys and girls forget all about the life they had as guerrillas, also from their sources found out that Baragan had been following specifically one girl called Fiona , they'd to report the matter to colonel Alzate for help , Colonel Alzate asked for the names of the girls , Doctor Tatiana due to her mistrust for the army , she urged she keeps the names of the girls being harassed anonymous for the time being , Alzate had no choice but to agree with her , leaving the colonel's office , doctor Tatiana made a call to Fiona to let her know that they were aware of who had been following her and they've taken the matter to the army for protection, Fiona asked if they could trust the army, it was clear to her the man who was looking for her was from the army ,Tatiana assured her that they could trust Colonel Alzate ,he's a good man , Fiona left it up to them , for her she could not trust the army right away .


For Colonel Baragan a man trying to make Fiona's life miserable , before he could go back inside the room to join his daughter and his wife to continue celebrating his daughter's birthday , he received a text from the lieutenant , on opening it , it was a picture of Fiona entering San Pedro university and few additional contacts about her .


"So you think you can you can be a better person Alias Tabna , now you're a student at San Pedro university, well ,well , we will see how long this will last," he talked to himself .


Having had her contact, the desire to call her grew stronger and stronger , he thought he had enough information on her to confront her , she was already in her hands now , knows where she lives ,where she studies from , how she looks like and where she works from , Baragan couldn't help himself , eventually made a call to her


"Who is this ?" Fiona answered the call on her way to the call center .


"Oh Tabna , Tabna , Tabna," he sounded calm . "You thought we will never meet again," he laughed .


"Is that you Baragan ?"


"The one and only," he chuckled . "Did you miss me ?"


"What do you want ?"


"We need to talk ."


"And what makes you think that I'm interested in talking to a pig like you?"


"I'm afraid you have no choice unless you want me to pay a visit to your house ,trust me on that, I know where to find you ,oh wait maybe we can meet at San Pedro university. "


"You know I can tell the police about you , I can tell them that you're harassing a girl who could be your daughter and that won't be good for you Baragan and your career ."


"Don't make me laugh Tabna , who would believe a former militia ?, tell me to which police station you will go to , to report me , I can come and assist you with the case against me."


"From where can we meet ?" she realized he was in the commanding position against her .


"I thought your house could be a good choice ."


"Don't be ridiculous , let's meet at the Virrey park in the afternoon."


"That's better," he hanged up .


Reaching the call center , Fiona passed by her desk to Ms Ana's office to ask for an advance , she promised that she won't ask for advances anymore in future , all she wanted was to buy something really important for her mother , promised to work for extra hours to cover up for the advance , after glaring at her as she talked, Ms Ana agreed on a condition that she never come late again for work or continue asking for advances .


The next morning , Fiona woke up very early in the morning, went down to a bus station , Manuel who was coming to her house to see her saw her going down to a bus station in a hurry , tried to call her by her name but she could not hear him , she got onto a bus, but before the bus could continue on its way , she was surprised to see Manuel getting sited next to her .


"What are you doing here Manuel?"


"Can you tell me where you're going ?" he asked .


"Is this what you call protecting me ?" She asked . " You're stalking me Manuel ."


"I don't know what it is to you but I don't want anything bad happen to you ."


"I'm going to school ."


"Are you kidding me Fiona ? this isn't the bus that takes you to school , are you forgetting that I work there too ?"


"Okay , okay , cool , am going to meet a friend from a certain school."


"Hope you don't mind if I join you ."


"It's okay ."


The bus dropped them somewhere , it was outside a certain school that she was taking about , the school seemed to take in only high class students , students from rich and famous families , all the students who were coming in for classes and leaving after classes ,were leaving either in personal cars or were picked up by the parents .


"Let's wait here," the two got out of the bus , and waited across the street .


"Why are we waiting from outside and across the streets Fiona , and whom are we waiting for ?"


"Let's just wait , the problem you have is that you talk too much ," she smiled .


"I truly don't know what's going on ." Manuel couldn't comprehend a thing from what she was doing, everything about her behavior at a moment was criminal minded.


"If you have no idea of what's going on, then just watch ."


Still waiting across the streets , an expensive Mercedes-Benz C-class car arrived , one soldier came out and opened a back door as the other waited on a wheel , on opening the door , a chubby girl in an A- line dress came out , dragged her black bag onto her back and went inside the school building of three floors .


"Did you see that ?" Fiona asked Manuel .


"Who is she ?"


"That's Baragan's daughter. " she replied .


"Girl , what are you looking for from Baragan's daughter," he asked . "Wait, wait , don't tell me it's what am thinking ?"


"Oh come on am not going to kidnap her , am not that cruel like her father ."


"So what now ?"


"We are going to wait here till after her classes ."


"How about your classes today , aren't you going back at San Pedro's and why are we after her in the first place ?"


"Just keep your eyes to that gate as I answer this call," she pulled a ringing phone from her handbag.


It was Colonel Baragan , he was already at Virrey park looking around , he had called to ask for where she was , Baragan had earlier convinced his wife when his daughter had gone to school that he was going for a government meeting something that didn't look convincing to his wife , instead the colonel was off to Virrey Park to meet the girl.


Unfortunately, the girl who he was to meet with him was busy planning something else for him, she answered the phone, requested him to wait a little longer cause she was stuck in a class and couldn't leave the class just like that .


After about four hours , the chubby girl they were waiting for came out through the school gate , the two soldiers who have been waiting for her from outside for all those hours assisted her getting inside the car , the other who was on a wheel earlier went back to the wheel and started the engine ,Fiona asked Manuel to immediately get a taxi , luckily enough a taxi stopped just when Manuel held his hand out , both got into the taxi, asked the taxi driver to follow the Mercedes-Benz , the Mercedes-Benz then later after a thirty minute drive entered a good looking residence on the other side of Bogota called Rosales , the taxi which Fiona and Manuel took stopped from outside the residence and the two got out .


"Now what ?" Manuel asked .


"We need to get in there before that gate closes ."


"But that's invading private property Fiona , we can be arrested for that ."


"Just leave it to me , are you coming with me or not ?"


"Do I have a choice ?"


Both entered before the automatic gate could close itself , ran and hid behind one of the flowers in the garden , Fiona got the bag she came with off her back ,pulled out a cap and a shirt , she'd bought these last night from the money she asked for in advance from her boss at the call center .


"Are you going in ?" Manuel whispered .


"What do you think ?"


"Fiona you're going to far , is this how you're going to integrate by carrying out revenge on Baragan ?"


"Am not going to do anything stupid , am just paying a visit to a friend ."


"Since when are you friends with Baragan's daughter? "


"You will stay behind here this flower and watch my back ."


"Just be fast because I don't even approve this ."


"It's going to be fine." she stood up and headed for the door .


She rang the bell and inside the house Pamela luise who was busy hanging her clothes in a wardrobe asked her daughter who was doing her homework on a computer to go and open the door .


"Mom am busy doing my homework in my bedroom," she raised her voice from her room. "I can not open the door ."


"Then ask the maid," her mother raised hers from the other room as well.


"Mom , she's busy in the kitchen ."


"What will I do with this chubby girl ?" she talked to herself as she got out of her room to go open the door .


When Pamela luise Baragan opened the door , she saw a young beautiful girl with curry hair covered with a brown cap standing in the doorway .


"How can I help you young lady ?" she asked .


"Good afternoon Miss , My name is Fiona , am a student at San Diego school of engineering , at my school we were asked to carry out a survey about interior designing ,the water and electricity system inside the houses of the people in our neighborhood , as far as I know I don't live far from this house , I thought it would be a good idea if you shared how this amazing house was designed ."


"Tell me , is that going to be in your school magazines ,i mean like the best house in the neighborhood?"


"Oh that , yes mum , if your house turns out to be the most good looking , definitely it will be in the magazine and from the school magazine to the news papers , isn't that cool miss ?"


"Really cool , come in ,come in," an excited Pamela Luise welcomed the girl inside the house.


"Who is it mom?" Maria luise came out from her room .


"It's a surveyor , she's here to do a report on our beautiful house ."


""Fiona ?" Maria luise looked so astonished .


"Maria luise ?" Fiona also pretended to be astonished .


"Wait , wait , do you two know each other?" Pamela luise asked .


"Mom , Fiona and I met when I was going to check on my high school results ."


"I see, well I will leave you two girls to talk as I get her a glass of juice," she left for the kitchen .


"Thank you miss ."


"Fiona tell me , what are you doing here?" she showed her a couch to seat on as she sat down too . " How did you find my house ?"


"I didn't find your house , your house found me , it's a coincidence , you know am doing this part time job , carrying out a survey on houses , it can also be of help to my classes , by the way, how are you doing ?"


"I'm fine , am really excited to meet you again Fiona , you know I felt like we could be best friends back then when we were checking on our results ."


"It's still possible , in fact let's take a picture together , I can upload it as my profile picture on facebook ."


"Wow, am really excited , let's take that selfie ," she sat next to her as Fiona held her phone in the other hand for a selfie .


"I think your mom is taking too long ."


"I will go and check on her ,just stay here and feel at home ."


"It's okay ."


When Maria luise had gone to the kitchen to check on her mother , Fiona started taking pictures of herself from every corner of the lounge room , then sent them to Colonel Baragan who was furiously waiting for her at Virrey park so that they can have a talk, we the Colonel saw the pictures of her inside his house , he got desperate and absolutely desperate when he saw one of her with his daughter , immediately called her .


"Get the hell out of my house you little bitch ."


"Don't be so rude Mr , don't you even have manners , is that how you welcome visitors to your house ? I came here to meet a friend , Maria luise is such a wonderful friend ."


"People like you don't have friends you fool ."


"So rapists like you are the only ones who have rights to have friends , that's disturbing Baragan, it's surely disturbing ."


"Get out of my house you little bitch ."


Fiona hanged up , she couldn't stand the nonsense that was coming out him. Maria luise came out the kitchen with her mom and two glasses of a passion juice , Fiona took a gulp and asked if she could do the interview about the house with Maria luise from a nice restaurant outside the house , and whether she could come over the next day , besides it's her friend's house.


"But I thought I will be the one helping you with that !" Pamela luise requested .


"Do you mind if I can do it with your mother Maria luise , I thought it would be a better way to get to know each other more , but if you're busy , I can do it with your mother ."


"Relax Fiona , mom." She turned to her mother . " This is my house too , I know it better , I will help Fiona from the restaurant, you are not going to deny me a chance to be with my friend right ?"


"It's okay , you can go and have a good time girls ."


"Thank you mom , Fiona lets go now ." She grabbed her hand bag from a couch to follow Fiona out .


"It's nice to meet you miss , I will take a leave now and thanks for being of help to my survey ." Fiona stepped out of the house "


"Don't mention it girl, I am looking forward to have our house on a magazine cover ."


"Mom , you're embarrassing me ." Maria luise sighed .


"What do you know Maria Luise apart from sitting with your tablet the whole day ."


"Let's go Fiona , we can get stuck in here for the whole day if you're to listen to my mother with her being in the spotlight ."


Fiona and Maria luise got inside the Mercedes-Benz that brought her from school , this time only one soldier who was the driver went with them, Manuel still behind a flower plant in the garden never made a move as he kept his eyes in the compound , saw them leaving , couldn't believe what he was seeing and after about three minutes as he was planning to go jump over the fence to leave since it was easier from inside , another car arrived inside the residence , Colonel Baragan came out in a hurry , Lieutenant Rios stepped out of the car too , both were in a panicking mood, the colonel had called earlier to tell him that the girl was at his house with his daughter , Manuel was so shocked to see his godfather with a man who was after Fiona and all he could say to himself .


"What a hell, godfather you've been using me to get to Fiona !"
