Chapter 5 Four

"wow, this look delicious" Blessing said, the whole family are at the dinning ready to have their dinner, the father Edward is back from signing the business deal with the China company.

"why dont you all start digging" Sharon said, "it's been long you have cooked this, dear" Edward said

"yeah darling" she replied, "I guess this is the reason" Blessing said pointing to Steve and everyone laughed, "so dad, why don't you consider signing a business deal with me " Steve said

"you want my deal son" he replied

"yes dad"

"I cant do that because I don't that trust you with my money" he said

"dad" Steve said

"why do t you guys reserve that discussion for later" Sharon said.

Spending a lot of time who's his family made Steve happy, he got to hear a lot of stories from his little sister about her recent boyfriend and school activities, mum kero talking about him about when he is going to get married and settle down whike dad keeps talking him on how to manag wealth, success and business. So, Steve created a little memo for them in his brain. Dad with success talks, mum with the marriage - is-going-to-be sweet if you go in talk and Blessing with the relationship and school gist. All of it was so interesting to Steve ears. He choose spend the night there so as to discuss a very important matter with his family.

Robert could not believe his eyes, no matter how much he digged about the guy, he keeps hitting a dead luck, hr had called one of his best friend, Thomas. He is also a brilliant harker and still never had a positive result. He had spent four hours on the process and his stomach rumbled out a little, he need to eat something, just as he about to leave the room, his computer beeped, showing him an incoming call from the IP 247. 229.255.297, looking at the way the code were arranged, Robert knew that the only person that has that IP code is only his friend, Thomas. He sat back on the chair, press control and the Alt key at once and the face of Thomas showed on the screen,

"hey dude" Robert said after fixing the microphone to the system and doning his headset, "looks like I got something on your little prey" Thomas said

"wow, share that with me"

"okay, the scumbag is also an harker, the best one in the business" Thomas said

"really, Tom you think so or did you discover that from your snooping because i was unable to get any information about me" Robert said

"I don't think so, I know so, the son of a bitch create a web for himself and get himself entangled in it"

Robert understands what Thomas, is talking about. Many months back when he just joined the team, he had heard so many members of the team talking about some kind of wen that they call 'harking web'. It is some sort of program that whoever is, tracing then will not get them but something is amiss, "do tuh have an idea who this can be, you knke that-"

"I understand your point but this definitely did not look like any of our works, our hacking webs work totally different from this"

"I see, I just hope that I catch the son of the bitch " Robert said

"hey why are you still on the pursuit of the guy, did he give you any assignment to work on" Thomas said

"you bet, the guy is giving me another assignment and i need to talk to the guy "

"hey dude, we all in this business have our story, when everything go sour for us but that doesn't means we should spend our precious time planing a way to revenge, infact our business is no a legal one so we are bound to be praised and presecuted, funny enough how the word comes out" Thomas said. Robert gave Thomas word a though. He might be right, what if the guy also went into something more serious than his with nobody helping him?, what if the guy really went to prison and was released just now? It has been three years nkw and the guy is just making his second text to him. "you have to let it go and do and the job, for us our job comes first before our lifes" Thomas said and broke the connection, Robert was, still thinking about the words that Thomas, said before another message dropped on his terminal. Robert clicked on it and read it. Thomas, had debt the program of the harking web that the man used with some little suggestions he can use to protect his system from getting detected or broken, the program must be strong indeed.

"hey sis, you sound a little bit distressed and sad, is, anything the matter" David said on the phone

"yeah bro, I am but don't wanna talk about it" Stella said

"oh it must be really bad for you, am sorry sis"

"yiu don't have to be, how is your studies going" she asked

"fine, just that the exams are approaching and reading had got more tough"

"you need to read hard dav, you must not let me down on this exam"

"sure sis, I promise to always make you proud"

"that's my little bro, don't worry, I will send you some money to you okay"

"thanks sis you are the best"

"yeah so I will leave you to read now okay"

"okay big sis" David said and the line was broken. Thank goodness that she had not say the main reason why she called her little bro. It would had affected his preparation for the exam and make him downcasted. Ever since their parents were dead, they had been the only one for each other, nobody had been on their aid so they never leave each other for anything, infact when David was going to England for his studies, they both cried because of how much they are not going to see each other. Now, they had gotten customized to the life of calling and chatting with one another, they still remain that bound of great friendship in respect of their distance between them.
