2024-10-29 19:42:56"I think I saw you outside, sitting in your car" she said
Dave moved inside the room, went over to the bedside and sat beside Sarah. The woman made to leave and then paused"You do know she was raped right?" She said"What?""When she ran out of the room, she ran into me and she looked very scared, one look at her and I knew what happened" she explainedDave could not believe his ears"I could have stopped her, then she wouldn't have to drive into an accident" she continued "so I feel responsible in a way, that's why am here. I heard about the accident from the news. Here this is his information, you can talk to the police and have him pay for what he did"Dave collected the paper"Emm, thank you for being here" Dave said still shocked.The woman nodded, turned and left.Dave started to beat himself up, he was right there and this happened, and when she came out, he thought that she was hurrying up to get back home, he was so angry he didn't go over there to confront her, if he did, he would have noticed that something was wrong and would have never let her drive. He just sat there bent his head over at the bed edge and slept off.About an hour later, A woman walked into the room."Sorry, i didn't know anyone was here" she explain before trying to leave but Dave stopped her."Hey, it's fine. Sorry, who are you?" He asked"Oh, am her psychologist" she repliedDave's eyes widened, his wife was seeing a psychologists? Why? And he didn't know about it."I didn't know she was talking to a psychologist" Dave said."You are Dave, her husband, I suppose" she said to him."Yes, am Dave, her husband" he replied now feeling a bit ashamed for not knowing what his wife was up to, plus who knows what they have been talking about him."Oh, I will give you some privacy" she said turning to leave."Hey, wait. What was she talking to you about?" He asked."That is confidential, I can't release such information to you" she replied."I know, but am her husband" he said to her"Still" she replied.She made to leave."She was raped" Dave said to her."What?" Asked the psychologist."Yea, and I was right outside the place it happened, when she came out I was so angry coupled with the thought of her cheating on me, I couldn't see something was wrong, so I was there, I was right there, I could have prevented this from happening, but I didn't, so please, I need to know what is going on with my wife, please" he begged."Let's talk over a cup of coffee" she replied after a minute."Thank you" Dave said.They went over to the coffee stand and got two cups then moved over to the chair and table and sat down."So?" Dave asked."I am not trying to make excuses for her actions here, but you know why she did what she did? why she cheated on you? That's because you deprived her, you ain't there for her when she needed you, through her trauma, through everything."That's not fair, I have always been there for her" he said in defense."Really Dave? You have?, how many night have you said you would come back but never did? how many times have you disappointed her? When was the last time you two went on a date? How is your love life? It's almost like you ain't there anymore, you neglected her Dave. She was sufferering.Dave now bent his head in shame"And what? You think the trauma from when she was kidnapped just suddenly went away on it's own? She has PTSD. Dave, she isn't a soldier like you, she isn't used to all that stuff, you are the soldier not her, you know what you signed up for, she doesn't and considering you lied to her about what you really do" She said to him"If she was having problem, why didn't she tell me anything" he asked"Because she doesn't know how to, I have often encouraged her to, not to talk of you not always being there" she explained"And she happened to go to you with all this? Telling you everything that happens in our life? He said looking hurt"That's the job, she has something bothering her, she talks, I listen and try to offer help, that's the job. So yes, she comes to me with them, which she wouldn't have to if you played your cards well" she replied"Alright I get okay, it's all my fault" He said"You are missing the point here, am not here to blame you, you asked me to tell you, I have, I just hope that now you know, things would be different, things would be better, that is if you are lucky enough to get the old Sarah back" she replied."What do you mean?" Dave asked"Series of traumatic events can really mess with one's head. Let's just hope she is strong enough to withstand that and that it doesn't get to that" she explainedShe looked at her wrist watch"I have to go, I will be seeing a client soon" she said to him "take good care of her and yourself" she finally said before getting up and leaving.Dave got up and walked back to Sarah's room. When he stepped in Sarah opened her eyes."Hey baby" he called"Dave?" I called"Yes hunny, how are you feeling?" He asked"My head hurts, where am I?" I asked confused"You were in an accident, you are in the hospital, let me get the doctor for you" Dave said."What?""Just try and relax okay?"The Doctor came in shortly"How are you doing, can you follow the light for me?" He said flashing a touch light at her.

When she didn’t get any response, she ended the call. Who is this woman? Could Dave be seeing her? I couldn’t quite place this, could she just be someone from work or is this personal? Something tells me it was the latter. I tried to keep myself calm, I tried not to lose control but it was so hard. One day, I set off to follow Dave around to find out who he’s been seeing. By 8am I was already in front of our house, I took Julian’s car so as not to be spotted easily, I had earlier lied to Julian that my car has a problem so I can take hers, she didn’t mind so she let me have it.

No, not at all" she answered quickly and I smiled"You are a good friend and I know you love me but I need an honest answer this time please" I said to her"Mia, you are the smartest woman that I know, I don't think you are stupid, you just made some wrong choices that's all and hell, who doesn't at some point?"

She picked up"Hello, who is this?" She asked"Hi Ana, this is Liam" he replied "It's Liam" she said to me"What?" I asked coming closer and whispering to her to put it on speaker"How the hell did you get this number?" she asked him"I just spoke to my lawyer, we really need to talk to Mia, it's really important, is she there with you?" He asked ignoring Ana's question"No she is not, whatever you want to tell her, you can tell it to me, i will just pass it on later" she said to him"I know you don't know me like that but I promise I didn't do all these things am being charged for, am innocent.

We came over to the couch and dropped them on the table then poured out the drinks into the two cups, and slide one my way as she took up her own glass and drank from it, a slight frown appeared on her face as she did"Are you going to tell me what happened now?" She said taking another sip"He was laundering money and dealing with really dangerous people" I said still sitting still"What? Mia did you know about this?" She asked surprised"No, I did not. You know I can never involve myself in something like that. Why would you even ask that" I said looking at her"Then why are they in your house and taking all your stuff?" She asked still doubting that I didn't know anything at all about the crimes "He asked me to move some money into my account but that was to keep it away from his wife, not bec

I was so shocked I thought I went to the wrong room, but looking inside I realized I didn't go to the wrong room, I am at the right room, all of Mia's properties were there and the police officers were just touching everything."What the heck? What is going on here?" I asked as one police officer rushed out to stop me from entering the premises "is Mia inside that house?" I asked the police officer but before he was able to respond, Mia showed up, she was coming from the stairs and has no idea about all of this."You again?" She said to the police officer that came out to stop me from entering the place, I guess they know each other or have met at least"What the hell is

"Good news, he accepted to let you meet with him, he should be here any second" he said and I breathed out in relief and my face brightened up"Thank you" I said happy he did me the favour"Sure" he said.

After the other officer brought him in, he left the room"I will let you two talk" the nice officer said before leaving us both alone in the room and closing the door behind him"Hey, listen" Liam started but I could wait for him to talk not after what he put me through today and all the things I found out about him"What the fuck Liam" I said upset"Look, listen to me. It's my wife and her lawyer lover, they are the ones setting me up, they are the ones doing all this. I can tell you I didn't do anything.

"Look the charges are all legit" he said apologetically but still confident"You should know that his wife is really on to him, she could have plotted all of this, believe that woman is crazy, I wouldn't put it pass her, maybe you should be focusing on her instead torturing me" I said upset"No, this isn't his wife. He has been doing this for a very long time now, even before he met her,tl this one is on him not her" he said"Okay I think am gonna go" I said getting off the car seat but he got off the driver's seat and stopped me "Please just calm down, I know this is a whole lot for you but being angry about it isn't going to make it go away and besides where are you going to go?" he said to me"No am not upset about what you are telling me, I guess am just angry at myself for not figuring it out on time.

Once he heard my reply, he parked by the side of the road and got down from his car"Hey, are you okay?" He said coming toward me, I became scared and alert I took some steps backwards to put a space between us at least to give me a headstart if something should happen. What is he is a psychopath or a kiddnapper or a killer? There were many things running through my mind and my insecurities set in. If anything should happen to me here, nobody will know because Liam drove me out here very early in the morning, I didn't get the chance to call or tell anybody where I was headed and now I am left here no phone, absolutely nothing on me but my cloth"Obviously not" I said still suspicious"Well, did your car break down somewhere? I can help you to fix it, I am not a mechanic but I know a few things" he said nicely. How is he so nice, it's awkward I thought to myself"No" I said keeping my eyes on him and studying him"In that case, can I give you a ride back to wherever?" He asked"Do you

I mean it looks a little bit old, we can fix it up a bit" he said smiling. I stood there still confused, why would I want my firm an hour away the city? Was he joking and I specifically told him I don't want to go private"It fit the profile perfectly, it's spacious has all the equipments and fittings intact, you will love it, let's just take a look inside" he continued"Liam, we didn't talk about this, you didn't think this is something you should have mentioned to me before now? Instead of driving us out here this early?" I asked a little upset"Just wait a second okay, let's go take a look inside first, am sure you will love it" he said. I just felt that he wasn't hearing me"I'm a city girl, I love the city, I don't want to be here Liam, out alone here in the middle of nowhere?. All my friends are i
