2021-09-01 02:28:33Crystal glanced at the clock, it was midnight, Rafael hadn't returned, he must still be angry with her for him not to come back home, she stood up to go to her room when she heard the sound again, like someone groaning, who could be inside? Did Rafael come back without her knowledge? She tiptoed towards where she heard the sound and tried to open the door but it was locked, everywhere was silence once more, she listened if she could hear anything but no sound came, who was it that was locked inside the room? She was sure of what she had heard, someone was inside that room, that means someone other than she, Rafael and Emilia were living in that house, she Realised how little she knew about the man she had married, she went back to her room, not happy about the fact that she knew little to none about Rafael and more unhappy that he hadn't come back home. She fell asleep, her mind filled with worries and aches.
Crystal went downstairs the next day to see that Emilia had already

Rafael caught up with Crystal just as she entered her car, he immediately opened the passenger's door and got in, he found it difficult to fit in her small car, " why the hell are you still using this car when there are others?"." This is my car and I'll use it whenever I want"." Just drive," He gritted." Not with you in the car, I'm driving nowhere till you get down"Rafael clenched his teeth, " I said, drive" he barked.Crystal hissed as she inserted the key into the ignition and zoomed off. " Where am I driving to?""Just follow my direction" was his clinched reply.He directed her to the outskirt of the town, she was made to stop at the bottom of a hill, they came down from the car and Crystal looked around, the air was fresh and the sound of water could be heard not far away, the scenery was mind soothing, " what's this place?""Somewhere I come when I need time alone"" If you need time alone then why have you brought me here?"

Crystal ran into the bathroom and banged the door behind her, she breathed in and watched her reflection in the mirror, she looked flushed, her hair tousled and her lips swollen, she touched her lips with a shaky hand, why had she stopped him? She asked herself, they were legally married even if it would just be for a year, she wanted more than that, she thought, giving herself the answer to why she had stopped him, she does not want random sex with him, she wanted it to mean something to him, she wanted more than just a contract marriage and if she had given in to him now, it would mean nothing to him, it would be just another ride to him, she quickly dressed up and came out from the bathroom." All set?" He asked her and she nodded, she couldn't guess what he was thinking, his Expression was blank and he suddenly seemed distant from her.They came out of the cabin and he locked the door behind them, they went down the hill to their car in deafening silence, Rafael didn

That evening, Rafael was waiting downstairs for her, he hated being kept waiting, he was about to call out to her when she appeared, he simply forgot what he was about to say at the sight of her, he knew he was drooling but he couldn't help it, "damn" was all he could mutter. Crystal was dressed in a floor length mid- night blue dress that showed off her cleavage, she looked like a princess borne out of Disney, she reached the end of the stairs and stood, her expression was that of uncertainty, "well?" She queried. Rafael blinked several times before muttering "beautiful"She smiled at his compliment and he was sucker punched, he felt like a besotted fool, and the thought of how disgusting he was making himself look made him angry with himself" We are going to be late" His suddenly chilled voice wiped the smile from her face and Rafael almost regretted his tone." Remember, we are besotted couple, we are so in love that we can't stay away from each other"

A cry wrenched from his mouth as he screamed." Crystal, watch out", he broke into a short run and covered the short distance between them, he got there on time to push her out of harm's way and fell hard with her on the side of the hard ground, he shielded her body with his as the vase fell just beside them, pieces of it pricked his arm and it oozes out blood.Rafael glanced up the balcony but no one was there, there was rancor and guess from inside came out to see what the commotion was about." Oh my God, are you okay?" Serene screamed in alarm when she came out to see the scene before her.Rafael glanced at Crystal, " are you alright?" She nodded, still in shock, she couldn't believe someone has just tried to terminate her life, who would want her dead? She shivered and Rafael removed his coat and covered her with it, he helped her stand but her legs were so weak, she held on to him for support." Oh my world you're bleeding" Serene cried and t

Crystal watched Rafael and Vince come out of the study, she could guess that something was up but she had no idea what it was, Starlia was busy demonstrating how she would deal with Elena if she was the person behind the incident, she was so engrossed in her story that she didn't notice Vince coming out of the study before Crystal could open her mouth to warn her, she had already bumped into him, he caught her as she was falling, " Hey, watch it"" Hey, you watch it" Crystal heard Starlia retorted, she knew that Starlia had a thing for Vince and she wondered why she was picking on him now that she had seen him.Vince brow furrowed, " you bumped into me, why should I watch it"" You should watch were you are going to avoid me bumping into you"Vince glanced at Crystal who was trying to hide a smile, tongue in cheek, " don't bother about her Vince"" Did you just tell him not to bother about me?" Starlia whirled on Crystal" I wouldn't dare"Vince sh

Rafael was sitting on the table sipping his usual tea when Crystal came downstairs, fully dressed like she was going somewhere, Rafael raised his brow, " going somewhere?"" Yes, I'm going to look for a job"That was the least answer Rafael expected and his brow furrowed, " I will not let my wife work"Crystal flared up at his words, she remembered when she had used the word 'wife' on him yesterday, he threw the word back at her, well it was going to be tit for tat she thought as she looked at him straight In the eyes, " I am just your wife on papers, I still have my life to live"" You are still my wife anyway, I can't believe we are arguing about this" he retorted" Well then, let's not argue, I am going to work" she had sulked the whole night and she was still feeling a little of it this morning and here he goes again trying to control her life because of a damn contract"Why do you have to work? What do you lack? I give you everything you need"

Crystal woke up, something had woken her up, the fire had almost gone out and the generator had went off, she guessed the fuel inside might have been exhausted, she glanced at the window, the storm was over but it was still raining. Rafael made a groaning sound, that was the sound that had woken her, she moved close and placed her palm on his forehead, oh God, he was burning up, he was uttering inaudible words, she guessed he was delirious. She put a towel in the water and cleaned his body once again, placing the damp towel on his forehead, she checked his injured arms, thank God the bleeding has subsided, she listened to hear what he was saying but couldn't comprehend his words, she kept the towel on his forehead and kept changing the water until his body was calm, she was exhausted, the fire is almost out and there's no more wood to put in it, time to lay him on the bed, she carefully placed his hands around her neck and tried lifting him, he was dead weight, she heaved and

Rafael was just about to turn on the shower when he heard Crystal screamed, he quickly tied the towel around his waist and dashed outside, he bumped into her and caught her in time not to fall, he looked behind her and saw a snake, he wrapped the snake and flung it far away."It's okay, that wasn't a poisonous snake" he soothesGosh, she never imagined there were snakes here, she hated snakes, she glanced at Rafael and blushed, quickly looking away from his nude body, he had only a towel around his waist, he must have run out immediately when he heard her screamed." Don't walk too far off" he told her going back in to continue his shower. That evening, they had the granola and pasteurized milk for dinner, the wind outside had increased, it looked like the hurricane will hit in the morning, Rafael sat in the kitchen listening to the broadcast over the radio while Crystal idled away, she was feeling tense at the impending danger, what if the hurricane blew the cabin

Their contract expired last month but Rafael hadn't said anything about it, Crystal was free to leave and she knew it was time for her to leave, he has recovered and his father has also improved a lot after listening to the message from her father, she had given her mother's ashes to him and told him to let her go and rest in peace, tears misted in his eyes as he carefully collected the jar from her, " thank you so much" he had choked out."No Sir, I should say thank you, thank you for loving my mother the way you did, I'm happy that she at least experienced true love from you, you deserve to be with her, she will be happy where ever she is right now"So they had bid her mother farewell as they poured her ashes into the river and watched it flow out.

Crystal was dazed, she couldn't believe this was happening right in front of her, Rafael had taken the bullet meant for her, she was numb and time stood still as she watched him fall, right in front of her, crimsonFlowed out of him and dropped on her face as she fell on her, deadweight. A cry wrenched from her mouth, "no" she got out from under him, "Rafael, no, don't do this" but she got no response. The sound of ambulance could be heard and soon it stopped as it reached, " excuse me, ma'am, we'll have to take care of him" the paramedics came out and oxygen was fixed immediately as he was put on a stretcher and taken into the ambulance, Crystal signaled Emilia to take care of Evans as she quickly jumped into the ambulance, holding Rafael's hand with tears streaming down her eyes, " Rafael, please don't leave me, I'm sorry for all the words I said to you, I didn't mean it" she cried.

Raphael sat in his study brooding, a bottle of wine in his hand, he was pained that Crystal is still insisting on staying with Starlia, didn't she consider the pain he was in? Didn't she miss him at all? Why was she being stubborn, he would have to bring her back at all cost, he was no longer going to take no for an answer, he would use whatever method to bring her back, he had compelled her using their contract and he hoped that work or he would be compelled to use a more forceful method, she would stay with him and this time for good, he was never going to let her go again.Crystal walked into the prison and was shown where her father was, they stared at each other through the glass, her gaze furious, his mocking, he picked up the phone at his corner and stared at her waiting for her to do same, he mouthed something and she finally picked up the phone."Well, well, well, look who we have here," he said as soon as she put the phone on her ears"Surprised to see me

Rafael was furious when he saw Mark trying to leave with Crystal, so this was the husband she was talking about, " what are you doing with my wife?" His voice thundered.Crystal withdrew her hand from Mark's clutches, "wife?" This was the man she wanted to get answers from but he had come here looking for her still calling her his wife, "what do you mean by that?" She whispered."Nothing", Mark quickly asserted but she paid no heed to him.Rafael had suspected something was wrong when he had seen Crystal the other day but now he had confirmed it, she had lost her memory and Mark had taken full advantage of it, he held Mark by the neck and rammed him to the wall, " how dare you take advantage of her like this after what you did? You put her in this condition and still have the nerve to hold her hostage as your wife?"Crystal turned to Mark, " what is he talking about?" She chipped in, confused, she turned to Rafael, " what do you mean by put me in this condition?"

Mark felt the bottom dropped out from under him at her question, has she regained her memory? No, she had taken her pills, then why would she ask of Rafael, he felt desperation crept into his heart and he fought it, he was not going to lose her, no way, he can't let that happen, his expression guarded, he sat at the foot of her bed, " did you drink your medication?"Crystal frowned at his question, she was asking about Rafael and he was here talking about pills, what has that got to do with anything? Was there something in the pills?"You gave me the pills yourself, why asking?He shrugged, "no reason""I asked you a question, instead you are talking about pills, is there something you're hiding from me?"No", he asked quickly, too quickly and her suspicion grew, there was something he wasn't telling her."You are lying to me, I don't believe you, there's something you're not telling me" she stood up from the bed and walked downstairs angril

Crystal looked back and was glad his car wasn't following her anymore, she reached home still shaken about what just happened and was glad Mark wasn't home yet, she thought of what had happened earlier, why was he referring to her as his wife, the man must have lost it, she can't tell Mark about this, he would so hit the roof, she regretted going out, she hadn't understood the compulsion on her to go out and now she regrets it, she wasn't his wife, her husband was Mark, her mind traveled to the dream she had the night before, of the faceless man and for some reason, this stranger fits into it, tears burned in her eyes, she felt so lost, her headaches terribly, she had to call her doctor and explained about her dream to him, was her memory returning, if so, she wants to know who that man was, she realized that she had this dream on the day she failed to take her medication. The doctor told her it was nothing and that she must continue taking her pills, his voice sounded tensed to

Crystal got home and was relieved that Mark wasn't back from wherever he had gone, she was just dropping the juice and beverages on the table when he walked in, he hugged her and she stiffened but didn't pull back, she has to try and act like a wife to him no matter what, he pulled back and looked at her, did you go somewhere?" He asked staring at her intently.She nodded, "I got us some fruits and beverages". Be stared at what she had bought on the table, she had gone out? But how was that possible, if she had taken her pills, she has been sleeping by now, his heart skyrocketed, she had seen Rafael on the news yesterday, although she had not recognized him, he was still perplexed with the fact that she was interested in watching him, he was a businessman and might even have business here in Demero, he would not allow her to go out, not until he was sure that Rafael was not in any way close to Demero, he narrowed his eyes on her, " did you meet anyone?".She frowned at his

Crystal walked into the house Mark took her to, it felt strange, she had absolutely no memory of the house neither did she even feel like she had been here before or lived here. She went into the unfamiliar house, looking around and hoping something would trigger her memory. "Are you alright?" She heard Mark asked as he placed his hand on her back, for some reason, she felt uncomfortable with his touch as she moved away from him, nodding that she was okay and needed to rest.Mark noticed how she had moved away from his touch, his eyes narrowed but he let it go."Why are there no pictures of us in our house?" She suddenly gazed at him, even in this state, without memory, she was still smart. He was at a loss for how to answer."Huh?""I mean no family portrait of us, not even our wedding pictures?""Oh, yeah we have but you see, our previous house caught fire, I only just managed to get you out of there, so this is a new house, we lost our family pictures and

Crystal felt the wave washed her away and she welcomed it, she had no strength left in her, suddenly she felt a hand pulled her out of the water but she was too weak to open her eyes or fight it, she gave in and welcomed the blackness that enveloped her. Rafael opened his eyes in the hospital, he must have passed out, memories rushed in, Crystal, he can't believe that she was gone, why did he wake up, he wanted to join her, his heartfelt like bursting, "you're awake" Vince walked into the room, "how are you feeling?"Rafael shook his head, "like my heart is about to wrench open in pain". Rafael stood up from the bed, "you have your car with you?"Vince nodded, and Rafael walked towards the door, "get me out of here".Vince followed closely, " the doctor hasn't said you should leave".Rafael kept walking, "I am leaving, the doctor has no solution for my ailment, only Crystal does".In the car, Rafael placed a call, his eyes cold and unfeeling, "
