The Epic of Tobi.....4

     Present
"Look at the fool," said a raged watchman to another, "he is think people is to be sleeping. To..to..today, is they is eat him live-live! "
"Is she alive?" Tobi asked the watchmen as he entered the gates of the resort. His query was met with sheer silence in response. The watchmen sneered at him. At this juncture, his heart was thumping loud, seeking a way out of his chest in search of fresh air, because the heated blood inside his body was suffocating it off all the oxygen present. It was intense, within and without Tobi. 
Once Tobi fully entered the resort's compound, the gates behind him were closed. He was caged in.
As he walked into the doors of the resort's reception, he could hear a huge murmur taking charge of the air around him. It was certain word had gone round, and people knew he was in the vicinity. Out of the blues, he felt a tight grip on his right hand, and upon taking a glance, a bulky, chiseled male stood tall, certain not to let go. He almost peed himself.
"Hi Tobi," said the bulky figure. " I see you have come back to claim Naima's body. You have robbed us off our daughter. If I was to have my way, I swear I would rip apart your body into pieces, glue you back together, and do it all over again. Aaarrrgh!" Tobi looked at his face, and witnessed veins claiming ownership all over it. Wrath had just rubber-stamped its presence.
Upon entering the social hall of the resort, Tobi was met with an avalanche of eyes filled with hate and despise. Tears and wails were roaming all over the room, and choked it off all the bliss and joy that had reigned supreme the previous day. Tobi was in a sharks tank..and all their teeth were gnashing for his skin!!
"Murderer..murderer..murderer!!," screamed out Naima's mum, "you killed my daughter... you good for nothing, shameful, and ungrateful bastard!! I HATE YOU!!" Fueled with sheer fury, she just could not hold back; she started running at Tobi with a knife in hand....
Past
"Welcome to the afternoon show fellow buzzers. The air is buzzing with vocals that can soothe a tiger to sleep. Oh yes, a tiger. Today, we up the music and alter the flow. If you had a heavy lunch, kindly keep away from your boss..don't want him to hear you remix the songs with echos of your snore. Ha ha!! We have the latest in Rn'B from our land to yonder, and trust me, we are about to sizzle your hearts!! Damsels in distress, this is your boy, Mr. SO aka Smooth Opp's..hear me loud and...." Tobi . He was on fire. He glanced out the booth, and saw Ms.Yvette. She winked at him. 
Ms. Yvette immediately removed her phone and sent him a text: ' Tonight! We will be making our own music between the sheets! :-* '

It irked him, but the dilemma stood tall. The saddest thing about it all, was that he had just met a girl he liked. She had altered the state of his heart from normal to out-of-control. Naima was her name, and she had it all. A human supermarket is how he could refer to her in absenteeism, because the mention of her name would send ripples through his heart.. He felt and knew it- She was the one!! 
What was he to do in order to keep the job, and rid himself off the ever pestering and ever randy Ms.Yvette, at the same time, nab this girl who had taken his emotions into a frenzy....
