Prologue:
Michael sat in his car, he watched the all too familiar silhouette getting into the house, he heaved a deep sigh as his heartbeat increased, he looked beside him at the contract on the seat, will she listen to him because of it? Is she still inter
Sasha parked her car in front of the hotel, she took a deep breath before getting out of the car, the valet took the keys from her and she told him about her luggage in the trunk which he helped her brought out. She walked into the hotel and approached the receptionist "I have a room.""What name ma'am" the pretty blonde asked her with a pretty smile."Sasha White."The blonde went through her computer before looking up to her with a smile "that will be room 1001, fifth floor."Sasha nodded and she gave her the room card "would you like someone to show it you?" The girl asked."No thanks. I can mange, just tell the bellhop my room number for my bags.""Sure ma'am, I will do just that."Sasha walked into the elevator, just as she reached to press the fifth floor, someone used his hand to hold the doors, he peeked in and smiled at her before stepping inside. Sasha retuned his smile faintly, and leaned on the wall with her eyes closed after seeing him pressed the f
Sasha felt lightheaded and oozing in alcohol, she decided to just sit on her side and listen to them sing, maybe she can stop thinking for a while "it's Sasha's turn now" she heard and opened her eyes to see her friends all looking at her expectantly, one second she wanted to refuse but then why not? She smiled and stood up, she staggered to the CD library and selected her music, she staggered back to her seat and took the microphone from Marilyn just as Celine Dion water from the moon began to play.Her friends looked at her surprised at her choice of music but she only smiled and brought the microphone to her lips and sang along."I've looked everywhere I canJust to find a clueOh to get to youAnd make you want meAnd I've run circles around the sunChasin' after youOh but it's no useCan't you see that I'm going out of my mindTrying to find a way to get through to youOh you don't know how hard I tryAnd I try and I tryWhat do I gotta d
The sound of a phone ringing woke up Sasha, she groaned and turned on the bed, her leg on top that of another who also groaned and pushed her off. The ringtone ended and it picked up again after a second. Sasha groaned and finally forced her eyes to open, she yawned and a gnashing headache held her immediately she sat up, her hand reached to rub her temple, the phone was still ringing and she forced herself out of the bed, stumbling on Agatha who was sleeping on the floor.Agatha yelped and her eyes snapped open, glaring daggers at the one who woke her up with such pain "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Sasha apologized and stepped aside, Agatha yawned and went back to sleep. Sasha searched for the ringing phone only to discover it was the hotel intercom, she reached for it and picked it up, her eyelid were still closing and she wondered what time it was "hello" she said with a yawn."Good morning ma'am, I'm sorry to disturb you but there is a woman here who is asking of you" she h
Vanessa smiled and dropped her cutleries "if I tell you, you won't believe me" she picked her napkin and dabbed at her mouth before looking at Sasha with a smile.Sasha looked thoughtful for a while before saying "try me."Vanessa smiled "Michael told me."Sasha dropped her fork in shock while staring at Vanessa frozen.Vanessa chuckled at that "he told me and he also told me that you didn't check in with his name but as Sasha White and also your room number, that was why it wasn't hard getting the receptionist to call you."Rather than recovering from her shock, Sasha sunk deeper in it, after a while she said "he knows.""Yes" Vanessa nodded "he knows you are here and he also know you went to a club last night. When I brought it up, he said he knew."Sasha stared at her mother in law in shock "will I ever get away from him? Is it possible for me to go to a place without him knowing?"Vanessa smiled faintly "I don't think so" she sighed "one day, when he was
A young man was sitting in the back seat of a Mercedes Benz, he kept staring at the entrance of the hotel opposite him when his phone rang, he looked at the phone screen and picked the call "speak.""Good evening Mr Brown, I just want to let you know that it was our office that she contacted" a man spoke from the other side."So?""I showed her the one we have according to her description..." The man was saying.Michael interrupted "did she like it?""Oh she is in love with it" the man replied.A sweet smile curved on Michael's lips "are you sure?" He asks in a more gentler tone."One hundred percent.""So, how did you give it to her? The price I mean.""Oh Sir, it was a steal. I could see it on her face when I told her the price, she looked shocked. Perhaps not expecting a house like that to be so affordable.""Hope you didn't make it suspicious?""No sir I didn't, I told her that that's the price, no discount.""Good. For
Michael shook his head to shake of the thought, whatever that happened is for the best, they were never meant to be in the first place, he just forced on nature by agreeing to marry her but that was that now, nature somehow has righted his wrong and he is not going to go against it again. He finally turned away from his window, he left his room and got to the living room, he sighed when he saw how empty and silent it was, he made his way to the kitchen, he fixed a cup of hot coffee for himself and wheeled out of the kitchen to the living room, he sipped from his coffee slowly and lonely, his eyes darting at every corner of the room, he heaved a sigh yet again and just then, the door opened and walked in Gary who was wrapped like a Christmas bun."Man it's freezing out there" he muttered to himself and Michael couldn't agree less because of the cold breeze that entered the house with him. Gary removed his scarf and coat, he turned to the side to hang them, only to realize there wa
Three days later, Michael had a disturbing dream and woke up, he laid on the bed silently and after sometime, he helped himself sat up on the bed, his back resting on the headboard and his fingers messaging his temple, he let out a deep breath to steady his breathing, after sometime, the aftermath of the dream left his body and just as he wanted to lie back down, his bathroom door opened and out walked the one woman he never expected to see in his home again, he was shocked, when did she enter? How come he didn't hear any sound of water since he was awake if she was in the bathroom and most importantly, how did she get in? Didn't Gary locked the door and left with the key?His eyes followed the woman who was still oblivious or pretending to be oblivious of his presence, he watched her sat on her dressing table and started applying her facial cream, wait when did she pack all those? If he can remember, it's been a long time she dressed in his room so how did her dressing table got
After Gary left, Michael was left alone in his house again, he thought about calling his mom over or better still tell her what was happening to him and the things he was seeing, but he decided against it. Since when did he become mommy's boy? And again, he wouldn't want his mom to know that that's how he had been treating Sasha.He went up to his room to take a nap or even still work on some documents, maybe getting himself busy will make him not to think much. He got to his bedroom and immediately he pushed the door, the door opened but only for him to see the man like him dragging Sasha by her wrist out of the room, Sasha was crying and trying to free her hand from his hold but the man only tightened his hold on her.Michael got angry and wanted to free her from the man but they walked through him to the stairs, out of impulse he followed them, determined to free her from him. He saw himself dragging her down the stairs in a fit of anger and three more stairs, he pushed her
