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 waThree 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
Michael heaved a frustrated sigh and knew he was going to disturb her rest "can you please leave her alone?" He asked of himself but the man didn't even look at him, the man stared at the sleeping Sasha and as if been pushed by something, he picked up the TV remote and switched on the television, he surf the channels looking for a particular channel. Seeing him doing that, Michael knew what he wanted to do after all, he was the one that did it but just that, that day he didn't noticed how tired Sasha looked "please" he pleaded but the man ignored him.The man found a music channel, he increased the volume of the station to maximum and a blasting music filled the house, too bad only Michael and the sleeping Sasha heard it. Out of impulse, Michael jumped out of his wheelchair to stop the man but he seemed to have forgotten something, he can't walk. He winced for his unplanned action was heavy and it reopened his wounds. Michael sprawled on the floor in pain and he watched as Sasha
Gary let out a low breath "you need to decide the one you want. You need to choose, will you take love or will you take hate because if you don't take your time to know exactly how you feel about her, you will never have rest. When you see her with another man, you will feel broken, but when she is by your side, you will feel irritated. So you need to stand your ground on one emotion, which do you feel more?"Michael closed his eyes again "when she was still around, it was both. They were both so strong but days ago, I don't know anymore. You won't believe me but it's the truth, I have been having this hallucinations or illusions, I don't know. But I use to see myself and her, our past days, the way I hurt her, the way I make her cry even I myself while watching that feels that the man is wicked and any time I remember that, that was exactly what I did to her, I feel remorse and regrets" he looked at Gary "I was wrong, I shouldn't have been like that, I shouldn't have been so ang
A week later Michael was discharged from the hospital, Vanessa urged him to go home with her but he refused, so she let him be but not that she doesn't call him every minute of the day.When he got home that day, he was afraid that his mind will continue it's game on him but after staying the whole day, nothing happened. He didn't see crying Sasha nor did he see the other wicked side of him but at night, he discovered that he really miss her and somehow seeing her as a vision or illusion or hallucination made him not to miss her much and now not seeing her at all, his lonely heart long for her.Michael hugged his pillow to sleep that night out of thinking about her too much but no matter how much he did, she can't just magically appear beside him and he knows that but heaven, how he wish it was possible.The next day when Gary visited him in the morning as usual, he couldn't help but ask him "how have she been lately?"Without thinking, Gary already knew who he was askin
Michael watched them from his car and what he wouldn't give to hear what they were discussing and it's not like he can't do it but he won't, stalking her is already more than enough, he shouldn't eavesdrop in her discussion, he can't stand so low.He saw them walking out after some time, Sasha was smiling on something the man said but he can't say what."So see you when?" Sasha asked Craig."Tomorrow. Dinner, at my place" he grinned.Sasha laughed "we just had dinner and you are already asking for another one tomorrow?""Well you wouldn't blame me, I just enjoy spending time with you. Whenever I'm with you, I feel like I'm in heaven."Sasha rolled her eyes dramatically "tell me about it.""I'm serious, it's the pure truth" he moved a step closer to her and tucked a luck of her hair behind her ear "you are a beautiful woman and I'm going to keep saying that till you believe me" he pauses to gaze into her eyes and at impulse he wanted to kiss her but remembering h
Michael threw his head back and laughed bitterly, he is really cursed, why is it that others will experience this thing called love except him? A lot of people he knew all had one strike on love and it worked for them but him? His heart had insisted on loving only one woman and when he finally got a chance to be with her, his heart went and hid and his brain took over, causing him to maltreat her and now she is gone, his heart got out of it's hiding place and is tormenting him, just what kind of a thing is this? Just why can't he be happy, why can't nature let him be happy?Haven't he be patient enough? He watched her date four guys and every time she is with them, his heart break but yet he persevered, he waited, he kept on loving her and he always rush to be with her whenever she broke up with them but before he can reveal himself, she had picked up another and he would turn and walk away heartbreakingly. Now, he is about to watch history repeat itself only that now she will be
Christmas day came and pass as well as new year with Michael spending it by staying at home or stalking Sasha. He had went with her to her parents home for Christmas, well, if he said he went with her, he meant by staying inside his car outside the house. He finds it difficult to approach her, not that he didn't want to but that he was afraid she might not want to see him and he don't think he can take seeing contempt in her eyes when she look at him.The new year started as always for him only that, it was extra cold to him. Michael had kept on undergoing rehabilitation for his legs and he was indeed improving, he can stand for ten seconds now and his doctor praised him for his hard work and also said that it was a nice improvement and he might start working in less than two months. Michael invested all his time in walking again, if he is going to fight for his love then he mustn't have any disadvantage and him not walking is already a big disadvantage on his side.He w
