“You had no right to do it.” I repeated it in a small voice, but that was his undoing. Alex's eyes narrowed in slits, his hands tightened in a fist, and he looked at me with murderous intent.“The fuck I do. What the fuck is wrong with you?” He yelled, his veins popping from his neck.He was so angry that his hands were shaking, and I was suddenly afraid for my life.I knew that he could never hurt me; I was convincing myself that he wouldn't, and that was the only reason I was still standing there confidently.“Alex, take it easy; you are getting angry.” I said in a bid to calm him down, but I should have known that it was only going to aggravate him.“Do not tell me to calm down, Ruby. I can’t believe you decided that leaving me in the dark was the best thing to do.”Now it was my turn to get angry. “Don’t give me that bullshit; I don’t know if you have forgotten, but we are no longer together; we were even on the verge of divorce, and if the judge had granted our request, we would n

The next morning, I was dragging my bags behind me as I went outside. Noah had called yesterday to tell me that he had booked a nice getaway place, but I had asked him to keep it a secret for me to add to the suspense. I went outside, struggling to drag the gigantic bags I had brought along with me. I don’t even know why I brought them when I was sure I was going to be indoors most of the time. However, it was better to come prepared for anything that might happen. Who knows? I could meet the love of my life there, and we may decide to wed there. The black Hyundai was parked in front of my house, and I came out, wearing a cute little sundress and huge sunglasses on my eyes, shielding myself from the fact that I had been crying myself to sleep yesterday. “Miss Ruby?” The driver smiled as he opened the door for me, and I reciprocate the gesture. It felt so weird to smile with all the turmoil going on in my life, but I had to be polite. I entered the vehicle, and it was smooth sailin

The rest of my stay at the beach was beyond magical and simply enchanting. It was just the right thing I needed to get me back on track after the horrible week I had.I could still feel a little pain in my abdomen if I inhaled a lot of air.However, just breathing in the clean, fresh air of the sea and eating good food had the effect of making you feel calm, and right now, I was the most relaxed.It wasn’t a surprise that I didn’t think of Alex throughout that period. I was too busy stuffing myself with fresh fruit and delicious coconut milk to bother myself with him.I enjoyed every aspect of the trip, even the random stargazing, which ended up being a surprise birthday party for one of the guests.Since my early twenties, I have avoided attending parties; I was even further marred the last time I followed Alex to a newly opened bar and had a run-in with an ex-customer.So parties have been a no-no for me.But the one here was so fun; the DJ was going crazy that I have been head bang

My heart skipped a bit as Jeremy said the words, and no, it wasn’t the good type. Whenever I hear the words ‘we need to talk’ it never really ends well, and I don’t know what direction this one was going to take, but I hope it was for good.I entered his office with him, nodding to his secretary before we entered the main office.I carried out a sweeping cheek on the expanse of space, noting a lot of changes since I was here. Now I was feeling like a bad friend; I couldn’t even recall when I last went to his office.He had added more picture frames of himself on the wall, and I must say, he looked good in all of them. He had also changed the color of the wall from all white to a shade of peach.I mean, it wasn’t really an office color, but to each their own.There were so many new changes that I was still trying to wrap my head around when all this happened.I was just cooped up in my little world, oblivious to everything around me, and right now it was costing my friends and relation

I didn’t have the strength to do anything after I came back; I just laid on the bed and cried my eyes out, even when the stomach worms were making noises and demanding to be fed.I laid on the bed with no strength to do anything. How my life turned so drastically in a space of a week is something I am yet to understand.How did I go from having a best friend and possibly a lover to having no one on my side? I don’t even know what to think right now.The thought kept ruminating in my mind, but I couldn’t provide a suitable answer to them. At that instance, I was making a choice. If they want to be gone, then it is their choice. I wasn’t going to grovel and beg for anyone.It was with that resolve that I went to bed, but I was waking up at night when I couldn’t stand it anymore. I fastened the robe on me, putting my legs inside my slippers, and I padded to the living room.I beelined straight for the kitchen, sitting on the stool and helping myself to a bowl of cereal. It couldn’t be pr

My eyes narrowed at the cheap impersonation of me, not at all impressed by what I was seeing. “Who are you?” I tried to keep the irritation out of my voice, but it was almost impossible.Her gaze was on me, and she was staring at me with an open mouth, twisting a lock in her hand. Was she dumb? What was so hard to comprehend in the question that I asked that she was taking hours to answer?“Are you deaf, or can’t you respond?" I barked, but I regretted it almost immediately because my forehead flared in pain.I massaged my forehead with my finger, trying to soothe the pain. I was sure she was the one adding to it, because there was no way someone was this dumb.She took one look at me, her pupil widening a bit as she connected the dot, and she was looking back into the room.“Alex? There is a strange woman at the door.” Her voice was shrill and annoying. It was quite similar to those girls that play high school bitches, and it was giving me a major headache.My anger faded into disapp

I was a crying mess as I ran down the street to my hotel room. My eyes were blurry as the eyes filled my eyes, but I didn’t bother to wipe them off even though I could barely see.I was never the athletic type; I hated running or any form of exercise. I was already blessed with a lean body, so I didn’t need that, but that also meant that I sucked at running, but you suddenly get the strength to run when your ex-husband has practically denied you in front of everyone.It hurt—it hurt so damn much, like someone had tried to rip the bandage from my raw skin without trying to soothe it.I ran, ignoring the fact that tears were brimming out of my eyes and dripping onto the tarred road. The funny thing was that no one gave a fuck that a brown woman was crying as she ran. New York being New York meant that no one gave a shit if you were passing through life challenges.It was every man for himself.I finally got to the lobby of the hotel, and the man behind the front desk only needed to take

It has been a week since I left with my shame and ruined dignity as I fled for Alex’s house. The week had easily been the most tiresome one; the project was still running, and every day after work, I took a drive there to see how far it was coming along.I mean, I shouldn't be doing this; I have a project manager and other people in charge, but it was my work. I wanted to make sure everything went well without a hitch.And maybe to pass the time, these days have been seeming too boring for me, and I needed something to divert my attention to.Some days, I meet Jeremy there doing the same thing I came to do, and we exchange pleasantries. Although I am not sure I could call it that, it was anything but pleasant.I would tell him hello, and he would just nod at me. Geez! That was so infuriating. What happened to talking? I am not an agama lizard; you feel the need to nod in response to each greeting.The reason I was more pained was because I knew how we were before, so it only ached my
