MICHELSON POVI finally found a way to tame and in a way it made me kind of excited for all the wrong reasons. Immediately her mother left, she could not bring herself to come back to the dining area, instead she stormed away to her bedroom.I could hear her cussing under her breath for a long time. It was funny the see that a woman as shrewd as Brianna could come down so easily and be reduced to someone who can't utter a word.Deep downI felt a bit silly for all the wrong reasons, it was the same feeling you get when you can't fix your home and then hired someone to fix it but in this case, it was for something different– it had everything to do with fixing Brianna and that was if she needed fixing in the first place.As day break came shimmering through the sky I walked back to the room, i had but not been able to go back in since I was not sure of what I would get feom her and couldn't face another night if nagging.Deep down I wanted to call it truce on everything, but that felt l
MICHELSON POVI WAS thinking of a better way to hide my infidelity from Brianna, as much as I would have loved to stop it by seeing Paula it was something I couldn't clearly get rid of so easily. There was something about that woman I can't get my mind over no matter how hard I tried, as a matter of fact she was not making it easy for me as well.Easy moment with her felt like a section of my life I never wanted to end, I knew deep down that marrying was out if the way, as a matter of fact I would have picked Brianna over her again and again but when it came down to sex, I was so addicted to her that every moment away felt like no breathing.I had thought she won't approach me after the last encounter that me walking her out of the office,It was almost as if this infidelity was in my blood…There was one truth however and that was the fact that I had wanted to be married, to have a family of my own, and Paula in no way fitted into that aspect of my life.She never fitted Into the dre
BRIANNA'S POVWHEN I saw the look on Mrs. Trevor's face it was obvious he was at his again– His infidelity. As that was the only thing that could keep him away till this moment, when he was supposed to be back.I had made up my mind prior to that time not to think about the matter deeply, he was a cheat and like I had always thought and said to myself on many occasions Cheating was a part of man that could never be abolished.No matter how hard they tried to play sain there was a part in them,apart that wanted to go back to that sin.She walked back to the table not saying anything, and I was prepared not to ask as well.It was turning out to be a very toxic relationship and here I was at the middle of everything, deep down I was starting to regret the fact that I had not had enough patience to wait for Stormy . I was quite sure that he wouldn't treat me this way, not in any way.The thought of Stormy reminded me of the offer I had at the table, he had opted to see me despite the fact
BRIANNA'S POVWITH the look on her face it was obvious what I had to do. There was a need for me to give him a good talk about what he had done as it was starting to look like he didn't care how he acted toward any other person than himself.So when he had walked away toward the room, I had walked in after him him, he turned back and when he saw me standing at the door way he looked away as quickly as possible I was agitated about the whole situation, he can't get get to to treat people this way and get away with it.I walked straight to him prepared to give him a proper talk about his habit. As soon as he saw me walking in he acted like he was on his way to the bathroom.I stood in front of his way, blocking his access to anywhere he thought he wanted to walk to."You know that I am a very unspeakable thing to do right?" I asked, facing me.He knew what I was obviously talking about but feigned ignorance.His face bore no emotion at all of any kind."What are you talking about?" He a
CHAPTER 36 BRIANNA POV WITH the thought of Michelson out of my mind, I thought of a better way to deal with the fact that I wanted to treat him differently from now henceforth. I had drifted away from the lovely languorous sleep I had been having. It was funny how I was sleeping with the state of mind I had at that moment. As a matter of fact, it had been awhile since I had slept that deep with a sense of well-being seeping into my consciousness. All I could remember doing was having a bath after stepping in, Michel had not been in the room when I got back in and I assumed he was still having a conversation with his mother. Not even after I took my bath and walked back to the room was he back, I had decided to wait for him till he might get back and tell me how everything went. Soon I was dozing off, and couldn't stop myself from sleeping, my body uncurling and stretching as I laid on my bed. The whole feeling was soothing, till I felt something waking me up… At first inaj
MICHELSON POV. AFTER leaving my mother room, at first I had thought about walking down back to our room most probably to talk to Brianna as well but then my phone had beeped with a new notification, I would be lying to myself if I said i was not aware of who had been texting, reason being that she had been doing that all through that while I had been in my mother's room. Knowing fully well that my mother could have read her voice from even miles away I had Intentionally not picked her call. She was the last person Mother would want around me, not after the last spell we had together, and after the fact she was actually the one that had actually caught her right in the act of infidelity. I could have bet one thing right and that was the fact that she would be totally mad at me if she found out it was her calling. I walked away from where Mother was out of the room just then my phone beeped with a notification. I stared at it for a minute, glad at the fact that I had not left my ph
CHAPTER 38. MICHELSON POV FEAR crept through my mind like it was made perfectly for it, like it was its territory. I never thought I would drive as fast as that for her but I did it anyway, I was at the stage of going mentally deranged. At first I had thought that probably, I might not have listened to what she was saying or perhaps I was getting the message wrongly but neither of that was the case as I had heard what she was trying to say perfectly as a matter of fact, I didn't wait to hear it twice before dashing into her room and out as fast as I could. Nothing mattered at that moment, as I gave attention to what she might think if she saw me wearing another shirt, I had an excuse already in my mind in case she asked. She had tried standing on my way , trying to prevent me from leaving. "There is no way I am letting you leave this place." She said, sounding pissed at the fact that I wanted to leave. I had been furious, so furious that I shoved her out of the way. She looke
BRIANNA'S POV THERE was no way to explain how scared I had been about the whole situation. There was this fear that I had lost my child, for a while I had laid on the bed feeling less of the pain but drowsy at the same time. When I woke up a while later I turned to see Michelson by the window and his mother close to where I was at the bed. Mrs.. Trevor smiled at me and I felt a kind of relief, she wouldn't be smiling if the situation was awkward or bad. "Thank goodness you are awake." She said looking at me, as if trying to look at me to know if I was fine and everything was alright. I nodded my head to show that I was and watched as Michel walked towards where I was,at first I wanted to say something about that fact that he had been away but then I changed my mind as I didn't have enough strength to debate with him at that moment. When his gaze came to me. I looked away and faced the other side, my anger was justified and he deserved every bit of it. His look was dark, warm, e
BRIANNA'S POVHow fast was it to stop loving when it turns toxic?For me as fast as my heart beat in seconds.It had taken me nothing to make up my mind, perhaps two weeks of locking my door against myself and crying till I could feel my eyes go red with burning tears.This was not about compiracy but I was prepared to get through everything…As a matter of fact I wanted half of everything as well.Half of his wealth was going to make me obviously one of the richest female in the city and in a way it wouldn't affect him.For the next couple of hours all we did was talk about what I wanted—Which was to get away from the marriage as fast as I could.She has talked about it being more longer process and for all of cared I was ready for how messy it was going to become.Every part of me wanted to stay away from him.He was toxic this man, seeing him this morning reminded me of how much I hated him, it was quite a remindwr of why I wanted so bad to stay away from him.My husband was only
Michelson POVWhat in the hell I was doing. I thought to myself at the last-minute.At that time I was heading down the road, far away from where anyone could see me, it looked like I was drifting down the bowel of hell in my mind.There was a need to stop. I had to bring everything to a stopI tried to hit the brakes on the car.Fuck…I kept on pushing the brakes but it didn't work.All of a sudden I was starting to regret the fact that I decided to go down this path, I was regretting doing this at all as it felt like a very drastic action.What am I doing here?It felt like I was visiting another world, as the city passed before my fresh eyes as I drove deeper.I kept hitting the brakes as the car sped through, going off on the road with the same speed I had started with.As I neared the dead end , I thought about getting out of the car.The belt seems jammed, the door -I felt the wind in my face as it looked as though I was about to embrace death.Just then at the last minute,
MICHELSON POVWasn't it said that good music heals the soul?The music playing softly through the stereo was in a way depressing and there was no way to say why it was this way.I had picked that same music, I had always picked out any other days but today it did look like I was listening to a totally different song— It was like I was listening to it in a different way or perhaps hearing the tunes of the music differently .Either way I was not enjoying an but of this and in a way the way she was treating me was quite expected.The more I tried to take my mind away from all of this the more it became dawn on me that I might as well be a murderer.With own hands, I had committed this attrocities.In a way i wondered if she would ever forgive me, I would give anything as a matter of fact everything just for her forget everything but even to someone totally deranged that would be quite impossible.There was only way I could get my mind off all of this, and that was for me distract mysel
BRIANNA'S POVThere was only one word for how the past week had been and it was —Shambles!One could say I was a living shadow of my old self, and thanks to Michel he had totally out done himself making a mess out of me.That was what was, a total mess…I had dragged my feets through the tiled floor, ignoring the looks I got from maids and the greetings as well.The past one week had been nothing but hell for me as I was trying everything I could do with the situation at hand.The way the sun felt on my face, the fresh air—The taste of coffee like I had always loved it every morning, everything felt to me new.“Are you fine ma'am. ” one of the maids asked.Something in me whispered that she was not only asking for the state of my physical look but also how I was mentally as well, the whole feeling gave me goosebumps."Yes I am.” I replied , faking a smile. The truth was I wasn't, as a matter of fact I was far from being fine but like they say the truth is always a hard pill to swal
MICHELSON POV.What did I feel ?Pain!Absolute pain and there was no way I could get over it.Men are allowed to feel pain too ain't they?Mine was like a hard blow to the heart, I could feel every bit of my heart, stop then pause like this wasn't essential and just when I thought everything might be as well over, I felt it beating again.It looked like I had brought nothing but destruction Into her life, slowly I tried to play everything again at the back of my mind.If there was anything she hated more that moment it was certainly me.It was something, she didn't even need to say as it was glaring in her eyes.My face was inexpressive…Yet one Could tell that everything going on deep down inside me was absolutely shambles.Till now the only two people that knew about what truly happened was Brianna and myself and in a way I wanted to remain this way.The doctor ushered is about so she could attend to her, I took that time to take a long stroll around the hallway, stopping at the wat
BRIANNA POVIT looked like he was keeping the rest of the words buried from fear of speaking or getting how I would react.He looked at me for a minute not knowing how he was going to react to every bit of everything that was going on.When the words fell from his lips, I could feel the heavy weight of them."The baby is gone."At first I thought the words were just my thoughts playing out and he had not said anything, but when I thought about it again, I could hear the words playing again at the back of my mind."What?"I looked at my mother's face hoping it had something different…an emotion that would convince me this were lies.My heart beat shattered, and I could every bit of the piece and piece of my heart as it fell to the ground.The pain sent a raw ache through my chest and I could feel it pounding against it.My vision blurred behind tears and the shimmer of the sun on the marble floors, I couldn't hold it.One could numb any other emotions but certainly not pain, there was
BRIANNA'S POV.I Turned and saw him sitting right there, it was the last place I wanted him. As a matter of fact, I didn't want him anywhere around me.“Oh my god. You’re alive... She is alive! " He exclaimed as I stared around for a minute wondering what it was about him that I hated and disdained most at this moment.He glanced at me, a glint in his eyes filled with excitement. “I thought I was going to lose your"Perhaps, he shouldn't have said those words as I felt my memory returning back to me in full force.I felt a sharp pain in my head ...Staring at his face blankly at the moment, it was like staring into the face of the devil.If there was anything I wanted most at that moment, it was certainly having him closer to where I was.For all I know, I was done with the man.He tried to touch me but I took my hands away from where he was, flinching the very bit like his touch was toxic.As a matter of fact it was toxic, at least to me...I could feel the venom in his touch crawl
MICHELSON.Leaning back, against the chair in the hallway, I rested a forearm on the arm of the chair looking around at the events unfolding as I focusedmy gaze on the far end of the room.The anger In me was enough to raze down the entire room but I did well enough to bury it down as it burned in my throat and heart maring everything else in the process.My eyes skimmed up an inch to find the doctor again, a moment earlier she had insisted that I went back home after I returned there.The plan actually when I had gone home was to rest,take a fresh nap, eat and come back by morning but I couldn't do any of these things as I kept tossing and turning on the bed.The night was promising to be filled with nightmares so at the last second, I had dragged myself out of bed and now I sat in the hospital hallway wiping a hand across my face.My gaze darkened,conveyed every bit of my thoughts.In a way while I sat back in my chair, my humor was fading into the half empty hallway.My though
MICHELSON.THEY say real men don't cry and I wondered if emotions were really part of what made up the term manhood.I could remember just two times I had broken down to tears in my entire adulthood life:The first, was when I lost my fath.The memories still filled my mind like a scar that would never leave and I could still see it in my nightmares.This was the second time…It got me wondering how long I was going to get out of all of this if anything ever happened to her.Never, never was the right term to tell myself that I might never get out of this mentally if anything did happen to her.I paced the hallway worried and in a state that was quite tense.I felt the need to do everything and at the same time, I felt like doing nothing other than just walking through the white hallways of the hospital.Pausing by the dispenser, I grabbed a dispenser and gulped down two cups in quick succession running a hand through my hair that was ruffled.I was in a state of total mess both phys
