The footsteps stopped after a while, but Diane was too petrified to relax. She tried to remember if she had locked the door, but she couldn’t remember.

She had sat on the couch earlier that evening, watching her favourite series to take her mind off her sad thoughts and while away time, and somehow, so much time had passed.

Before she could gather her thoughts and remember, whoever was out there pounded the door hard several times.

Diane jumped about a foot high, and snatched up her phone, ready to call the police, when Harold’s drunken voice came.

“Diane! Open up! I know you’re in there.” He yelled, slurring his words.

Although she was mad at him for scaring her so badly, Diane nearly sagged in relief when she realized he was the one outside, and not some burglar or something.

“What are you doing here, Harold? Go away before I call the cops on you. You have no right to sneak up on me like this, especially at this time of the night.” Diane said loud enough for him to hear.

  • Goodbye Ex, I Found My New Flame   An unforgettable night

    It was a few weeks after her fairy-tale wedding, and Diane couldn’t be happier with her life.She had a loving husband, and she had their first child growing inside her. Everything was going well with her pregnancy, and even though she still had months to wait, she couldn’t wait to meet her unborn child.She missed her best friend, Nicole, with whom she had grown up and shared so many experiences a lot, especially because it was difficult to contact Nicole nowadays.On the rare occasions that Diane could reach her, Nicole always claimed that she was very busy with her studies, and that she also had to work, so she never had time to call or talk, but Diane assured her that she understood.However, things soon began to stop being rosy for Diane as Harold began to come back home later and later every night, claiming he was swamped with work as an excuse.At first, Diane tried to be understanding, but after a while, it became difficult to remain understanding.Before she got pregnant and g

  • Goodbye Ex, I Found My New Flame   Repentant

    By the time she came to the next day, Harold’s worried face and bloodshot eyes that showed his lack of sleep and guilt, were the first things that came into her line of vision.“Wh … where am I?” She croaked out in a voice that felt like it belonged to a stranger instead of her.“Oh, my goodness, babe. I’m so thankful you’re alright. You scared the hell out of me. You’re in a hospital. I found you unconscious on the floor when I got back from work. You fell down the stairs. Maybe you had a dizzy spell that caused you to lose consciousness.” Harold told her.He looked terrified, and his eyes begged her to corroborate his story, or more accurately, his lie. She didn’t say anything after that. While in the hospital, she learned that she had lost her baby, and was devastated. Harold kept pleading with her to forgive him for what he had done, but of course, he didn’t allow anyone to know that he did it, and Diane didn’t tell either.“I didn’t mean to hurt you, babe. You know I’ll never hur

  • Goodbye Ex, I Found My New Flame   Some drama

    While Diane was still trying to get Harold to leave, an angry Nicole pulled up to the driveway in one of Harold’s cars and stormed out of the car to confront him.Nicole had waited in vain for Harold to come home all evening, but when it was clear that he had no intentions of returning at the usual time, she called him, and he told her that he was swamped with work, so he was going to be late.After a while, she called again, and then kept calling at intervals until he stopped answering her calls and even turned off his phone.She would have been worried that he was cheating on her, or even worse, was probably out begging that self-righteous Diane to take him back, but the tracker that she had placed in his car showed that he was still in the office, truly.However, around midnight, he left the office, and to her horror, she saw that he was headed in the direction of Diane's parents’ house, which was where she guessed that Diane had gone to stay after she got kicked out of Harold's hou

    THE ‘WEAPON’“The time has come!” Nicole thought to herself fiercely as Evelyn drove her and Harold home from the police station after they had to spend the night there.She could be mistaken, but she thought that she might have seen some regret on Diane’s face tonight while Harold was making a spectacle of himself at her parents’ house.The last thing she needed was for Diane to decide that she wanted to forgive Harold, because she knew that Harold would go running straight back into her arms, and most likely, even cut off all contact with her, Nicole, to make Diane happy.She couldn’t afford for that to happen, so yeah, it was indeed time to apply even more pressure on Harold. After Evelyn dropped her off at her apartment, she began the process of preparing for the impromptu journey that she had to make.Three days later, she returned from her journey, and on the evening of the day she got back, she placed a call to Harold’s mother.“Good afternoon, Mrs. Collins. I’ve got a wonderful

  • Goodbye Ex, I Found My New Flame   The introduction

    The minute Nicole and Kevin entered into the grand living room where everyone was seated and awaiting their arrival, Mrs. Collins and Evelyn released loud, identical gasps of disbelief as they stared at the child.Mr. Collins and Harold, on the other hand, controlled their expressions more, so that Nicole couldn't guess what they thought, although she could see interest in Mr. Collins' eyes.“Good evening, everyone. Thank you for honouring my invitation.” Nicole said, bending and placing Kevin, whom she carried in her arms, on the floor.Then she gave him a tender kiss on the cheeks and forehead as though she was the most loving of mothers, before surreptitiously nudging him to remind him of what he was supposed to do.“Hello. It’s nice to meet you all.” The little boy said, bowing as Nicole had instructed him to do.“Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness. What a cutie! Is he the surprise you told us you have for us, Nicole? Is this what I’m suspecting it is? Please say that it is!” Mrs. Co

    “That’s no way to behave, Harold. What if the child is truly yours?” Mr. Collins asked his son, who frowned.“I don’t care, dad.”“You should care. If you decide to do dumb things, then you should be ready for the consequences of your actions. I don’t trust this young lady one bit either, but she seems to be sure about what she’s saying. Besides, I can see a certain resemblance between you and the child. So you’re going to take a paternity test. If the child turns out to be yours, you’re going to man up and be responsible for him.”“What if I don't want to have anything to do with her? I swear this is a trap. Nicole got pregnant on purpose.”“Just listen to yourself talking like a man child. Did I also force you to not wear a condom when the both of us were going at it like animals that night, and every other night that we fucked each other since then? Is thought you claimed you liked it raw.” Nicole asked angrily.“Jeez! Nicole, I don’t want to hear stuff like that.” Evelyn said, laug

  • Goodbye Ex, I Found My New Flame   A shocking news

    As the days passed, Diane's heart began to hurt less and less whenever she thought about Harold and Nicole being together. In fact, she tried her best to block them out of her mind.After that night when she called the cops on them, Harold reached out to her to apologize for his horrid behaviour via text, because she refused to take his calls.He had tried to reach out a few more times after that, and then he had abruptly ceased trying to communicate with her at all. She was relieved, to say the least.She was never going to go back to him, especially not with Nicole still in the picture, so there was no point in prolonging the inevitable. She had sent him fresh divorce papers, and was now waiting for him to sign them.Then one afternoon, while she was scanning through job applications so that she could apply for a job, she got another rude shock that had her questioning if she was truly getting over Harold and Nicole’s betrayal like she thought she was.She was alone at home, and the

  • Goodbye Ex, I Found My New Flame   The surprise of a lifetime

    Diane stared at the two old lines on the pregnancy test strip that showed that it was positive in utter disbelief.She had prepared for this possibility as much as she could in the time it took her to get back home from the hospital, but it still came as a rude shock to her.What on earth had her life come to? Here she was about to get divorced, with her soon to be ex-husband making a mockery of her all over the news for everyone to see, only to find out that she was carrying his child?Tears came unbidden to her eyes at this thought. No wonder she was always crying at the slightest inconvenience. Her hormones were working overtime.A few days later, the blood test was ready, and when she got it, there was no denying it any longer.
