Sally

I went home to meet a tense atmosphere, I don't know how, but I had those icy feelings crawling up my skin as I climbed up the stairs.

I entered my room after leaving Pamela in the living room to meet my girls, all sleeping on the bed.

It warmed my heart and, at the same time, made me feel like the worst woman on earth. Most people won't tolerate their husbands cheating or even choose to remain in the same house as him and his whore but look at me.

I sighed, tossing my bag on the side of the bed and then scrutinizing my children.

I furrowed my brows.

Iris was looking fine, but Mia's neck was kind of red and swollen, while Nora looked like she had been crying. I should wait till they wake up before asking them what happened and why Mia's neck was bruised.

"Mummy, you're back. Did you get ice cream for me?"Nora spoke, rubbing her eyes.

I patted her head ."I'm sorry, Pookie. I totally forgot, but I brought something even better."

She pouted ."There's nothing better than strawb

    Sally My legs were still shaking as I made my way up the stairs and to Pamela's room. I had a feeling that the shadow I saw belonged to a certain someone in the adjacent room to mine.I knocked on the door but there was only silence.I knocked again and this time, harder. The door opened a little and there was still no answer. I peeked inside, and just as I thought there was no one inside, sliding in quietly, I went to check the bathroom just to be sure.It was confirmed that the moving Shadow I saw belonged to Pamela. That sneaky bitch! She was the one complaining Cisco forced her into marriage and didn't want to miss her wedding, yet she had the balls to sneak into my husband's room.I ran a frustrated hand over my hair, Cisco's words echoing in my mind. I released a dry laugh. He thinks because I had stayed this long in this house then I can't Divorce him. I chuckled; he said I was stuck with him. Those words had meaning, I knew it but I don't give a single damn.Fuck rev

    Sally" I don't think you understand, Dad." I looked up at him as my voice cracked." Are you taking his side over mine even after he hurt me?" My dad remained quiet, and for a moment, I thought he was back to his senses until his next words." You have a legacy to uphold, Sally. A divorce would only cause scandal and reduce your social status. Don't make this hard for any of us. If you want his attention, let him know, and he'll give it to you." My heart shattered into a million pieces as I stared up at my father. This is unbelievable, he still chose fame and social status over me. Cisco just remained seated a proud expression on his face. He wants to wrap me around his fingers but I won't let that happen.I shook my head from side to side, with a bitter smile on my face." I'm sorry, but I'm not that same, teenage naive girl you can control. I'm getting a divorce, and no one, not even you, will stop me." My dad returned to his seat on the couch." if you still insist on the divorc

    SallyI ended up not going to work that day because I was too pissed. Francisco and Dad remained in the living room discussing god knows what while I returned to my room, staring at myself in the mirror in frustration. I decided to do some housework to clear my mind and then go over to Liz's place. That's the best I could come up with or I might lose my mind.The only person who helped me in cleaning was an old lady who willingly offered to be my children's nanny when they were younger. Nanny Ellie had been with us since Iris was two, although she didn't live with us; she came every Friday and sometimes on Saturdays. Nanny Ellie was one of those people who asked for charity from me. She was poor at the time we met and needed help for her only daughter, who was seriously sick. I took pity on her and sent the woman's daughter abroad to one of the best hospitals where she would be taken proper care of.Nanny Ellie, out of gratitude, offered to be a maid to me and help me take c

    SallyI arrived at Elizabeth's apartment around noon because I had to attend a parent-teacher meeting at the school. The graduation ceremony was coming up immediately after the exams and the principal needed suggestions for the party.I drove into the parking lot and stopped the car. I've always loved Liz's neighbourhood. It wasn't fenced, but trees and flowers decorated each corner, and almost all the houses were identical. It was a nice comfortable apartment, just the right size for just one person. Unlike mine, which had ten rooms, including guest rooms and a flight of stairs. Don't get me wrong, I love big houses and mansions, especially luxurious ones, but the issue comes with cleaning and climbing up the stairs. Liz appears in the doorway the next second, a crazy smile on her face. She raced towards me, barefooted."Oh, you fluffy teddy chubby bear." she beamed, hugging me tightly.I chuckled. "I'm not fluffy, you're the fluffy one here," I replied, smiling widely. It feel

    Sally We sat lazily on the balcony, both of us gazing at the full sky. The wind blew softly, and the smell of dried air was very refreshing, it eased the worry I felt inside." So what's next? Are you going to dig in or move on with the divorce?" Elizabeth asked, kicking her feet.I weighed my options carefully. If I do my own digging on Pamela and Cisco, then I might be able to find something useful, or better still, I could bear the consequences and still push through for the divorce." I honestly don't know, Liz."She sighed, placing a hand over mine." I don't recall your dad as someone who is lenient, and he doesn't bluff. If you choose Divorce, it won't just be you that'll suffer. Your kids will get affected if he doesn't let you take custody. Nora is barely five; she can't be away from you for a long time, Sally."I swallowed; I guess I don't have much of a choice." I know ,that's why I am going to continue with the initial plan."Liz squeezed my hand and it warmed my heart." S

    Sally " It could or could not be an ordinary marriage, but still, it doesn't hurt to find out some information, and the fact that a white man marries two wives is already suspicious to me."Liz retorted. She did not like that I was getting discouraged and was not ready to fight for my family.What's there to even fight for?I didn't reply to that, I just sighed again and stared into empty space. At that moment my phone rang, It was Chris."Found anything?" I questioned."No, it's just that I forgot to ask you. Are you sure it's Gary Harwood because it doesn't sound like a Nigerian name to me?""Told ya" Liz whispered."That's what Pamela told me," I replied, rolling my eyes at her."That name is purely white.""Can't you work with that for now?""I can, I'll call you soon.""Thanks again, Chris.""See, I told you that's not an African name."Liz butted in after I ended the call."You have to be smart, Sally; if Cisco has really changed, you'll have to play along.

    Iris and her sisters were really shocked when Cisco came to pick them up from school. They were expecting their mum to show up because she was the one always picking them up from school, or they sometimes used the School bus if their mum was busy, but today their father suddenly showed up. It had been ages since he picked them up from school. The ride home was very awkward since, between father and daughters, no one was willing to speak. Iris and Mia kept exchanging glances and talking through their eyes.As soon as they got home, they rushed out of the car and went to their mother's room. They were finally able to breathe when they were in the comfortable silence of their mum's room."Iris, why didn't you tell Mum about what you heard Dad say on the phone yesterday?" Mia asked as she folded her uniform."Just forget about it; I don't want Mum and Dad to fight about it," Iris replied."I think Mum will be able to handle it; you should have told her."" I said no Mia.

    Sally That fucking bastard!I drove back home like a madwoman because I was mad. I was fuming as various thoughts ran through my head. I can never be okay with Cisco being alone with my girls ever again.I was just informed that my girls were taken home by their father. Since when did Cisco start acting like a father. Even before he cheated, he was too busy to care about picking up his daughters from school.The rage I felt soon turned to worry as I thought of what he might do to my children if I were not there to protect them.Fifteen minutes later, I drove into the parking lot and rushed into the house, eager to see my children and ready to kill Cisco if as much as a strand of hair in their head was missing.I pushed open the door forcefully, rushing inside only to find Cisco hugging Mia, and Iris and Nora were about to join the hug.My first instinct was to pull him away immediately and maybe send the nightstand crashing down on his head and hope he goes to hell. But I stopped

    Sally I coughed and quickly covered my eyes. " I'm sorry for interrupting." I grinned. "No...no...no,you were not interrupting. I was just about to leave."Mr double H said and scrambled to his feet only to be pushed back down by Liz. " Yes! You were interrupting; I'll meet you in five." Liz said, smiling devilishly. I peeked between my fingers to take one last look at them. " I should get going now." I gave them a thumbs-up and finally left the room From behind the closed door, I could hear muffled voices. I actually pitied the poor guy for falling into the wrong hands. A few minutes later, Liz came out I didn't question her till I got into the car and started driving. " Soo...what's up with you and your new friend?" She gave me a cold look. " We're not friends, okay !" I laughed. " Then what was that all about? " " Stop getting wrong ideas, that was all nothing." She said and looked out the window, she was avoiding my gaze. "Gosh, Liz!!.... You only

    Sally I grabbed my car keys and headed towards the parking lot. I had to give my statement at the precinct, and I was going alone. According to Cisco, I got her arrested so I should go alone. Last night, he didn't give me an answer. I waited and waited, and we stared at each other for like forever! His mood completely changed as soon as the police van drove out of our lawn. Cisco told me to my face that he was married to both of us, and he didn't Intend to divorce any of us, so he wasn't going to choose. It was then I realized that maybe it was hard for him to choose, that maybe he wanted me but could not let her go. But I already vowed not to share him so I wasn't going to agree with him on that. I would just wait till Pamela's case was settled then have a proper talk with him. It was actually strange that he looked kind of frustrated or rather angry. After I left him in the garden, he stayed there for way longer than expected. I even got worried and went down to check o

    Sally I watched as my children fell asleep. It took a while before they finally slept off after the police left. I could sense that they were finally at peace, the relieved expression on their faces told me that they were more than happy to have Pamela gone for good. I was really surprised ....rather overjoyed at what Iris told me before going to bed. Pamela was probably planning to hide it from all of us. Iris told me she had burnt her skin with the iron. At first, I didn't believe it, but Nora and Mia both confirmed it. I had a triumphant smile on my face, knowing that my kids were able to defend themselves made me happy. At least Pamela would be groaning in pain behind bars. I just hoped the burn was big enough to leave a scar just like the little scars she left on my kids skins. Just as I finished tucking them in bed Cisco walked Into the room with a cup in his hand. I could see the steam coming out of the cup so I assumed it was a cup of

    Sally The only thing I heard were screams, screams from that monster. I wasn't going to stop till I broke through her skull and forced her to eat her brains. What she did was unforgivable; I would kick her out of my house today! That was it! I would never let her stay in my house; in fact, she would spend half of her life in jail. I couldn't send Cisco to jail when he abused our children but this....I would never let this woman go free, Never! I was about to smash her head on the railing again when someone grabbed my hands and pulled me forcibly away from her. " Let me go!!!" I screamed, I knew it was Cisco who pulled me away. He was the only one strong enough to lift me. I struggled to get free from his hold, I wasn't done with Pam yet. This was just the beginning. Pamela squatted on the floor, holding her head, which was bleeding; she was crying loudly. I scoffed, this was nothing compared to what she did to my children. The mar

  • Dark Twists    Chapter 36

    Sally We finally drove into our home, my mind still thinking and anticipating what would unfold in Cisco's room. I kept telling myself that I was doing this because I wanted to put on a façade, but deep down, I knew that it wasn't. My face had been red throughout the journey home I couldn't seem to get my mind off him. As soon as the car stopped, I rushed out and headed inside, grabbing the bags of gifts with me. I needed a cold bath to cool my burning cheeks before anything happened between us. I entered the sitting room and took a moment to look around. It was quiet. Maybe Pamela left the house, I wasn't so sure because I think I caught a glimpse of her car in the garage. Taking another step forward I almost toppled over. I looked down and saw that I had stepped on a sachet, and some of the creamy stuff inside it was spilt on the floor. Thank goodness I didn't fall and I was actually wearing heels! Who would throw an almost empty sachet of concealer on the

    Francisco Watching her sip on the fruit juice mix we made, lightened the heavy weight in my chest a little. We had mixed different fruit extracts together ...it was actually her idea and I found it quite tasty. Just merely watching her made me feel less worried. Ever since the issue with Pamela came up, I hadn't slept properly, not of course she slept with me. It was hard to believe that she still had some effect on me just like back then. It had even become stronger. I knew very well what this was turning into, I thought I had succeeded in getting rid of my feelings for her; I even thought marrying Pamela would help, but I was wrong.....I was always wrong. Maybe if I had listened to Pamela back then and remained as a trusted friend and not let it cross the friend zone then I wouldn't have been in this kind of situation where I had to choose between my wife, another wife and money. I knew I was greedy, that was second nature to me. I mean, who wouldn't be greedy for something

  • Dark Twists    Chapter 34

    Sally We finally drove home after many hours of spending time together. It wasn't what I had anticipated, to be honest. I really had a good time, but I didn't let myself get carried away by the extremely romantic atmosphere back at the restaurant. There was still some tension between us but it was manageable. I watched Cisco closely and made sure even his tiniest movement didn't escape my notice. His action seemed quite natural, though; I didn't see anything suspicious. It felt like he was actually genuine, no arriere pensee. I still didn't let my guard down even after concluding that this might just be a normal date like every other married couple do, I just wished he would stop his greedy quest and come back to us, to me. He still had access to my wealth as long as we were married, but what's getting me confused is why he's still after something that's already his. Thinking about it made my head hurt; I had to shove all misun

    The old lady sighed as she watched Pamela enter her car so quickly as if she were being chased. She turned around and headed towards the bus stop to take the bus. She wondered why Pamela was so against seeing her, at least no one would suspect a thing. They couldn't just avoid each other forever. She had tried calling her several times, but she always ended the call; she even sent text messages to her, but she didn't reply to any of them. The last attempt she made to see her caused a big fight between them. She had gone to Sally's company hoping that she would perhaps see Pamela there but it turns out that she doesn't even work there. She even brought along the little boy in hopes that it would at least soften her heart and make her change her mind and return home but it all proved futile. Instead of meeting Pamela, she meets Sally, and that causes a big quarrel between Pamela and her. She had tried so hard to stop Pamela from chasing after Cisc

    Pamela I rushed into my room to put on a jacket. I couldn't possibly take off my dress without the doctor's help, or I might worsen the burn. I had to get to the hospital and get back in time before Sally and her husband returned. Those brats were lucky; what I initially had in mind was to give them a taste of their own medicine. I had earlier gone into Sally's room to get the iron; I was actually waiting for it to get extremely hot. My plan was to burn their skins and make sure they peeled off; I was in pain because of Iris. I was planning to ruin her face and burn off her skin. I had to calm myself, or I would have ended up doing something that would put me in jail, and then I would lose everything. Whipping them was the best option I had, and that was a pretty good idea the only problem was that the concealer wouldn't stay forever on their skins. Their mother would probably find out sooner or later. I don't care actually...I already have a plan t
