Chapter 46

Aminu

I was devastated. I could barely sleep or eat knowing that my fiancée wasn't speaking to me. I hadn't seen or spoken to her in two weeks and Louis was not helping matters at all. He never allowed me close to her, talking about 'you weren't loyal to her'.

I knew very well that it looked bad, what I did. But I had an explanation that apparently nobody wanted to hear. I took a large gulp of the whiskey in my glass and poured myself another one, taking a large drag off the cigar in between my fingers. This was what I had resorted to in order to ease the pain of my love being far away from me.

I looked fondly at the bracelet on my wrist which had her name on it. I bled in my heart about this scenario we were in at the moment. I had lost count of the many bouquets I had sent to her house and office everyday for the past two weeks with no response back.
