Emily set the table of scrambled eggs and sausage with some toast.

She waited in the dining hall, hoping that he would come down before his meal gets cold.

After a while, she heard his footsteps approaching the dining hall and unknowingly, she let out a massive sigh of relief.

Richard had been lost in thoughts after his conversation with Mike. The more he thought about the good things he stood to gain from the banquet, the more confused he became.

While lost in thoughts, he inhaled something coming from the kitchen and needed no one to tell him that Emily was preparing something again.

A giant smile made its way to his face as he hurriedly made his way to the dining hall.

“I perceived something great, and I’m glad I came to the exact place it’s coming from”, Richard said as he flashed at Emily.

“Good morning, sir”, Emily greeted and bowed her head in respect.

“Cut out the sir, I’m fine with Richard”, he said as he picked up the toast and munched on it in delight.

He tried so hard to

    Their conversation got interrupted by the noise they heard outside. Barbara had returned and from all indications, Richard was quite surprised.He had thought that she would be back in a week time, since that seemed to be her current lifestyle.“Barbara, you are back!” Richard said sarcastically as he glared at Barbara, who was clearly furious.“Basically because a dumb friend of yours interrupted my morning with a call that suggests that I should come back to have a conversation with you. Definitely about something I know is not relevant to me”, Barbara said defiantly as she glared at Emily who was arranging the table and taking out the dishes.“Welcome ma’am”, Emily greeted, but went further with clearing the plates when she didn’t get a response from Barbara.“I see that the maid is taking good care of you. I mean, I’m beginning to regret why I recommended that to you”, Barbara said as she rolled her eyes at him and threw her bag on the couch.“Emily!” Barbara called, and she ran

    “Ma’am, breakfast is served”, Emily was saying when she heard the chattering noise of something that caused her to stop right in her tracks.“Don’t you dare me, Richard!” Barbara said as she threw a vase to the floor, almost aiming Richard’s leg.The pieces of the glass flew across the room, with some finding way to Richard’s knee.“What the hell!” Richard grimaced in pain as he shot her a dead glare.“What was the reason for that, Barbara? What the hell is wrong with you?” He asked angrily as he clenched his fists while trying to withhold himself from hitting her.“That is to tell you how I need respect while we are in a conversation! Come forward and hit me if you wish!” Barbara said as she hissed aloud and sank into the couch.She was testing him and Richard knew it. It was a trap, and one which he wasn’t ready to fall for.“I’m done preparing breakfast, ma’am”, Emily said again, with her head lowered to the floor and her body trembling in fright.She was shocked to her bones, and

    “Your sister is something difficult. Did you get her angry anytime?” Emily asked as she got done with cleaning up his injury.A sad smile spread across Richard’s lips and inasmuch as he liked the fact that Emily cared, he wasn’t ready to open up yet.“I get that, you would rather not talk to me and that’s fine. I mean, there are different things in our lives which we can’t share so easily”, Emily said, and walked back to drop the first aid kit at the store.She returned to find Richard lost in thoughts again. His eyes were focused to a particular direction and his fists were clenched in fury.“I would be at my quarters”, Emily said as she bowed in respect and made to leave.“Wait!” Richard called out, causing her to stop right in her tracks.“You promised to sing for me, right?” He asked Emily, who gulped down hard while pretending to remember.“Well, I think so”, she said as anxiety started creeping in.“Can you do it now?” Richard asked Emily who suddenly started coughing.He chuckl

    Richard gulped down hard as he stared at Emily who had her eyes closed while singing melodiously. She had gone to the music realm, and with smiles on her face, she increased the tone of the song, swirling her body slightly to the rhythm.Richard smiled as his eyes suddenly felt misty and his soul heavy. He couldn’t decipher how he felt at the moment. It was a mixed feeling; a feeling of joy and excitement, as well as a feeling of utmost sorrow and worry.However, after a minute, he felt more of excitement and calmness and in a split of a second, he had forgotten the fight he had with Barbara.“This is great”, he muttered as he closed his eyes and took in a deep breath, with his attention focused on Emily’s voice.Emily stopped singing and quietly opened her eyes, with a wide smile on her lips. She found Richard’s eyes closed, as though he were asleep.“Are you sleeping? I guess my voice sounds like a lullaby”, she said with a downcast look.Richard opened his misty eyes to find Emil

    Richard walked into his company premises to meet Mike, who seemed to be waiting for him.“Good morning, sir”, Mike greeted, while Richard ignored him and walked straight into his office.A huge frown made its way to Mike’s face as he took in a deep breath while thinking of how to make him understand.“Firstly, I’m sorry”, Mike apologized the moment they got into Richard’s office.Richard sank into the chair and pulled out his laptop, still ignoring Mike and pretending as though he weren’t standing right at his front.“I only needed you to agree to attend the banquet”, Mike explained as he sighed tiredly and sat down.“And you thought that telling Barbara was the way out? As a matter of fact, that only made things worse because at this point, I’m not giving it a single thought”, Richard dropped, causing Mike to open his mouth in surprise.“Murray would be there. This is a chance to mingle and strike a business deal with him. I mean, it’s an opportunity that shows up once in a blue moon

    “I would advise you to leave and avoid creating a scene”, Mike whispered into Barbara’s ears the moment he observed that she wasn’t willing to accept the fact that Richard was busy.“I said that I’m in dire need to talk to my husband”, She said as she gritted her teeth, still smiling and trying to pretend since she was being watched by other people around.“Your husband is busy! A good wife should understand that”, Mike argued further, still talking in a hushed voice. “I’m not a good wife. I’m sure he must have told you that. Now move away!” She said and pushed Mike aside, causing him to almost lose his balance.With a fake smile on her face, she walked into Richard’s office.“Hey husband! Can’t a wife come in to see her husband anymore?” She asked with a smile, which she changed to a frown the moment she locked the door behind her.“Why are you here, Barbara?” Richard asked, not lifting his head from the laptop.“I need your help”, she said as she folded her hands to her chest while

    “Oh my God! Look who we have here”, A lady shrieked in excitement the moment she caught a glimpse of Barbara and Richard, holding hands together and walking towards the exit of the building.Murmuring erupted while Richard sighted different people who took pictures of them. He was clearly exhausted, but as usual, he needed to show his smile and give the public the assurance that he was a happy man.“Let’s go”, Barbara said, while he suddenly stopped walking.“I thought the shoot was going to be somewhere around here”, Richard said as he shot her a dead glare, still smiling pretentiously.“Don’t be a fool!” Barbara whispered“This is not a photo studio. I only told you that my crew are here and ready for the shoot. I never mentioned that we were having it here”, she said and wrapped her hands around his, after which she laughed slightly as though he had just said something funny.“Now behave yourself and let’s go. Don’t create a scene, or it would be bad for you and your company”, Bar

    Richard got into the dressing room and remained still, almost at the verge of tears.He chuckled when he recalled how he had once told his late mother how no human on earth would ever make him cry.“You have no idea, things can happen in a split of a second”, his mother had said to him.“I’m so strong, mum. And my heart, it’s so rigid”, he had said, after which they both laughed aloud.He wasn’t strong after all because his heart had turned soft, and a human made him cry consistently.“Baby! We are waiting!” He heard Barbara’s voice and immediately, he hissed aloud.He couldn’t recall the last time she called him a sweet name. It baffled him to see that she had called him that because of how much she wanted to maintain her image in the eyes of the public.He remained mute and after a while, walked out of the dressing room, clad in a black tuxedo.“You look great, my love”, Barbara commented and winked at him to give a response.“I’m glad you know my taste”, he replied calmly, with the

    It was a perfect day for a wedding. The sun peeked brightly as though it were also excited for what was about to happen.Emily walked down the aisle, with the bouquet in her hands and a wide smile on her lips. Her hair was arranged in an elaborate style on top of her head, and her white glittery ball room dress swished almost silently on the carpet aisle. A song rang through her mind relating to love and the aisle. If you go down the aisle when you’re in love, you would be happy forever!She caught sight of Mike’s daughter who was the little bride of the day. The little girl sprinkled pink petals on the aisle just as she walked on it. It was a big wedding and since Richard had influence in the country, it wasn’t surprising that many reporters had come to cover the event. The aisle suddenly looked long and Emily only prayed that her feet would not give her away. Her legs were shaking fervently and her eyes were lowered to the ground.She was nervous, anxious and excited. She looked u

Everywhere buzzed with activities and each day, she had different planners who came to fill her in on how her day was going to look like.She was now back at Richard’s apartment and she was going to be living with him until they got done with everything.“Today, you would be going to test your gown and choose your preference”, a lady who was in charge of the dress for the wedding said to Emily who clearly looked tired and exhausted. She was yet to really believe that she was getting married to Richard after everything. Somehow, it felt like a dream and she thought she would only wake up and see it’s not reality.However, as the days went by, she kept on realizing that this was happening and she would soon become his life and partner for life.The public on their part detested Barbara after what happened and Barbara disappeared into thin air.

    - Months later- The air was stale with the smell of a new sunny day. Gentle droplets caressed the outsides of Richard's window pan. He took no notice of the fineness of the weather or the aesthetics a sunny day provided. All he got his attention fixed on was the ads the newspaper on his hands provided. He was that kind of guy. The one who would focus his attention while on something and damned everything else, and because of this little personality trait, he was capable of loving immensely. He loved Emily so much, and his attention was something always focused on her welfare. Even the ads on the newspaper had something that reminded him of Emily. As Richard sat with his legs crossed and hidden underneath his dinning table and his reading glasses gracing his beautiful beads of eyes, lady in an Apron walked into the dinning room with a tray in her hand and a pretty smile on her face. Immediately Richard's eyes fell on her, he smiled brightly, folded the newspaper and sat upright. He t

    Emily was clad in a tight fitted red gown, with her hair packed to a ponytail, and a red lipstick on her lips. She walked into the location where the meeting was scheduled to hold, with her baby in her arms and a little bag on the other hand.She met Richard, already sitting comfortably and deep down, she couldn’t help but wonder why he had come so early.“I’m here!” Emily announced as she finally took her seat, smiling widely at the lawyer who was already sitting.He was a young fine man and for some reasons, Richard felt jealous.“We are waiting for Barbara and her lawyer!” Emily said and smiled at her lawyer.“You look dashing, I know it’s not ethical to compliment my client, but I couldn’t remain mute!” The young man said and Emily blushed again.Richard suddenly slammed his fist on the table, pulling the attention of both the young lawyer and Emily.“Hello Mr Richard!” Emily said in an official manner, as though she had no idea of who he was.Richard wore a quick frown “Can we s

    “I would miss you baby boy!” The nanny said as she played with the baby who giggled in excitement. Emily thanked her for being there after which she appreciated her with some money.She had just reached the living room when she heard another footstep behind her. She decided to keep her face front, since she was not ready to meet Richard.“Would you leave without saying a word to me?” Richard asked, but Emily ignored him and walked towards the door instead. Richard was shocked that he ran across to her and grabbed her wrist.“Emily!” He called out and reluctantly, she turned her head, with a stone cold expression.“I have no business with you, Richard! I came for my son”, Emily said as she gritted her teeth in rage. She recalled how Richard had yelled at her and how he never believed that she was not the one at fault. This caused her heart to break to a thousand pieces.“Why? You want to go ahead and live with Brian? Are you that worthless and…”, Richard was saying when a deafening s

    Emily picked out her phone and took pictures of Barbara and Brian. She couldn’t help her feelings and in a split second, she broke into a loud laughter. Brian glared at her furiously, but she quickly apologized and asked him to proceed with the act. Emily could not just believe that Barbara was the one laying on the bed, lifeless and unable to react or stand against what was being done against her.“Ride her! Create that illusion that you are riding her. I want the world to see this and believe every bit of it”, she said aloud and Brian continued the fake ride on Barbara.When Emily was satisfied with the number of pictures she had taken, she gestured for Brian to get down and put on his clothes.Together, they watched the pictures and videos and somehow, Brian felt glad that his facial features was not in view. It was only that of Barbara that was clear and bright.“She would beg me to throw this aside and I would remind her of how she took my child away from me and went out to tell

    Richard was staring into his phone and gazing at a picture he took with Emily and the baby the day they visited the park.Just then, Barbara walked into the living room and caught sight of it. She felt a wave of jealousy flush through her, but she shrugged and started laughing instead.“This is so pathetic! You lost your goddess!” She said and continued with the laughter.Richard only gazed at her and kept mute. Barbara was clad in a very short gown, which almost revealed the type of pant she had under. That disgusted Richard, but he decided to keep mute about it since she was no more his wife.“When are you going to sign those papers?” Richard asked Barbara who was walking out of the house.“Right after I have some fun time with my lover!” She said and licked her lips seductively.“Do you know who my lover is?” She asked Richard who didn’t appear bothered at all.“You would get mad if you know him! Have a nice lonely day!” Barbara said and dashed out of the house.Richard sighed deep

    Barbara laid on her bed as she thought of how she had warned Emily to stay out of her paths. She felt fulfilled because she could swear that she destroyed Emily.Just then, her mind went to Richard and somehow, her heart skipped a beat. She knew that the marriage would eventually come to an end, but she didn’t expect it to be so fast.She wasn’t ready to sign the divorce papers, at least, not yet…The loud sound of her phone distracted her from her thoughts and immediately, she picked it up with hopes that it would be from a company. Ever since her marital scandal erupted, Barbara had lost countless jobs and contracts.Most of them told her that they weren’t willing to work with someone who had a history of some sensitive situation like marriage issues since it won’t speak well for their brand.“This is Barbara, do you have a job for me?” She asked with a wide smile on her lips, hoping that she would get a positive answer from the other end.“This is Brian!” His voice boomed from the

    “You would have to help me if you want me to believe all what you have just said”, Emily announced, while Brian stared at her with keen interest. Of course, he wanted her to believe him because he wasn’t ready to throw their friendship down the drain.“I’m willing to do anything, as long as it makes you to believe me!” Brian said defiantly, while Emily kissed her teeth and walked around the room thoughtfully.“Well! It’s not as easy as it sounds. But then, I’m glad that you are ready to do this”, Emily responded and finally sat down on the bed.“I’m ready to do this as long as it helps you, and also, if it’s going to go a long way in punishing Barbara!” Brian said defiantly while Emily gestured for him to sit down on a couch which was directly opposite her.“If it works well, I would have my son back! And her secret would be out in the public, too. I mean, that is just all what I want. Barbara caused me so much pain already, and I’m not going to let it slide!” Emily said defiantly.Br
