Sasha got home later in the day, her mind was in turmoil, even though she told herself she won't take him back, she still can't stop thinking on what Janet said, what if Michael really wants to get her back? Then if so, does it mean he loves her or better still might love her later in the future? Does it mean she has a chance of replacing that woman in his heart?
No, no, no Sasha, don't think about these things, you said you will let him go, let him go, she cautioned herself, don't rise your hope for nothing, what if Janet is wrong? What if Michael doesn't really want to get her back and just cared about his reputation like he said? What will happen then? She will just give herself another heartbreak. No, no, no, she is not going to take that chance, she is not going to cry a tear for him again, even if she still loves him, even if she still care, she will never let it show again and that is a promise.She stood up and went into her kitchen to get a glass of lemonade when sheMichael was shocked when his office door was thrown open, he looked up to glare at the intruder when he saw his mother and he couldn't help but sigh.Vanessa walked forward and sat in the chair opposite him with a sly smile on her face. Michael almost groaned when he saw that smile and he knew she knows something "Sasha called me yesterday" she said with a smile "she told me about your condition before signing the divorce papers."Michael felt his heart missed a beat "are you here to confront me then?""What do you think? You and I know very well that in three months time you will even be driving a car, so why claim that you are to walk in three months time to her?"Michael heaved a deep sigh, he is going to kill Gary the next time he sees him, if he hadn't told his mother about his recovery then she wouldn't have found out about his plan "you asked me to work in my marriage, and I'm doing exactly that.""Really, by tiring her down?""Mom, you already made it clear
Michael wheeled himself into the bedroom after Gary left, he saw Sasha busy unpacking her bags and hanging the clothes in her wardrobe, she looked up at him briefly before continuing what she was doing. Michael got closer to the bed and stopped, he watched her silently not knowing what to do or say. True that she is not happy with him but he could not contain the joy of having her back in his room, how long has it been? He can't even remember but he knew he was the reason she moved out in the first place. If he hadn't thrown her out of the room that night then she wouldn't have moved to the guest room."Need a hand?" He asked, his voice might sound calm and firm but he was breaking inside out of fear. Without knowing, his palms has turned sweaty.Sasha paused in her action and looked at him, her mind trying to comprehend what she just heard, did Michael offered to help her? She looked intently at him, trying to see his usual mocking look whenever he makes that offer but she re
Michael wheeled himself to his mini bar, he poured himself a bottle of red wine, he took a sip and stared at his legs, he knew his action is not helping him, Dr. Cage told him he has to use his crutches regularly so that he legs would master carrying his weight again but here he was, back in his wheelchair all because he wants to keep the woman he loves close to him and if sitting in a wheelchair is going to make her stay by his side, then he don't mind sitting in a wheelchair.He heaved a deep sigh as he took a sip from his glass, he stared at the staircase and his mind ran to the woman in the bathroom. When was the last time a woman bathed in his bathroom? She was the first woman to bathe in his bathroom and she is going to be the only one. He sat in his wheelchair and took little sips from his glass, he didn't even know long has passed until Gary walked in.Gary approached him and sighed as he saw that his boss was drinking and knew that he and his mistress might have had a
Michael sat in his wheelchair in the living room, his eyes constantly looking at the time. It was already 10:25 and Sasha was not yet back. He was getting worried and to make it worse, he don't even know where she is, not that he can't find out if he wants to but that he doesn't want to. No more stalking her, he won't to try to not know ahead of time anymore, he will only know where she is if she tells him and will only have people look for her if he feels something is wrong. He looked at the dinning table at the already cold food and sighed.Gary had brought the dinner almost four hours ago but he refused to eat, he was prepared to wait for her and will only eat when he was sure she has eaten.Gary walked up to him again "boss, don't you think you should eat? Even if it's a bite, it has already passed the time for your medicine.""No, I will wait for her."Gary sighed as he heard the reply he has gotten for the tenth time he had asked him to eat "but mistress looks like
Sasha opened her eyes cause of the sunlight on her face, the light blinded her eyes and she blinked for some moment to regain her vision only to see a man sitting near the window, she creased her brows and wondered when was the last time she woke up to see a man in her room "good morning" she heard this deep magnetic voice and her heart fluttered, did she just received a morning greeting? She peered at the man sitting and her heart palpitated, ever since she had married him, apart from the morning after the night with endless pleasure, she has never woken up to see him in the room. He would either be in the shower or be gone already, so why is he still here?"You are not the morning type" he chuckled "I have always known that actually but never knew you wakes so late" he wheeled himself closer to the bed only for her to see he was already dressed for work, she looked at his face to see him biting his lower lips nervously? She wondered why that is possible."Why are you still h
Vanessa stared at her son after the room was quiet "so, if she is not the one you have been madly in love with, who is she? Who is the girl that you find so hard to let go?" She asked the question she has been meaning to ask for a long time.Michael looked at her silently, he wanted to speak but he doesn't know what to say, he opened his mouth but no sound came out, he licked his lips and sighed "mom..." He sighed again.Vanessa knew he was finding it difficult to speak and decided to make it a little easy for him "where is she?""She is married.""Oh" she nodded "happily married?"Michael shook his head slowly "not really. Her husband has been bad to her."Vanessa looked at him "and?""She left but he went after her, asking her to forgive him and take him back.""Did she?"Michael was silent, he looked to be in thought "I don't know. But there are living together now, I don't know if she will forgive him or not.""And your heart hurts that her husband
Michael got home at few minutes to seven, he wasn't surprise to find out that Sasha was not yet back. He went to their bedroom to prepare for the dinner and came downstairs to wait for her.At exactly 7:55 pm, Sasha's car pulled over in the garage, she got down and stretched herself, she yawned and walked to the front yard only to see Gary beside the car "welcome mistress, you have five minutes to prepare for the dinner" he reminded her.Sasha acted nonchalant "said I'm not going, didn't he tell you that?""Miss Sasha, your father in law will be present. I understand you are angry with the boss, but don't dwindle his father's impression of you. It will really affect you if eventually your marriage happens to work out. You can do whatever you want to the boss but when it comes to his parents, you need to let go of your anger and give them their respect."Sasha sighed "he didn't respect my own parents.""There are a lot of things the boss did that I'm also not proud of
'You look beautiful' the words slammed into Sasha's heart and she looked at him sharply. What did she just hear? Did Michael just compliment her? No, it's not possible. She must have heard wrong, she thought as her gaze lingered on him, waiting to know if he will look at her but he didn't 'ah, that's what I thought' she laughed mockingly at herself for letting her heart go astray.Michael couldn't stop the words from escaping his lips, he couldn't believe he had thought out loud. Out of the corner of his eyes he looked at Sasha, he could feel her gaze on him but he couldn't get himself to look at her, not only because he was afraid of her reaction but that he was blushing. In all the years of giving his heart to her, this is the first time he had let her hear a little of his thoughts about her. This was the first time he had complimented her, the first time he had said such words to another woman apart from his mother and his late grandmother.He wanted to look at Sasha, to re
