“What are you—how are you here?” I ask with a firm voice. I get closer a little bit. But she ignores me and walks past me to my father and hands him the tray of what she is carrying. After that she stands next to him. “Dad, how do you know this woman?” I turn to my father with irritation and confusion.“Oh, she—” my father started talking but Clara cut him off. “We met at the corporate after party yesterday night. He seemed so nice. So, he invited me to come over for lunch the next day, which is today.” She smiles as she runs her eyes over me while tracing her fingers through her hair “you act nothing like your father. He's so gentle and nice, unlike—you” I suck in my breath as I think to myself. What exactly is the deal with this woman? Why is she bent on making me always feel like I'm no longer a part of where I used to belong? She knows nothing about me.My lips askew in a weird smile. “You are so—”“Come on, Lyn, don't talk to my guest like that” my father's voice interrupts me

The first thing I notice when I slowly peel my eyes open is Maya sitting by my side, her focus locked on her phone. The light from the screen reflects on her face, but she doesn’t notice me stirring at first. I blink a few times as I take in my surroundings. The stark white walls and the sterile smell quickly tells me that I’m in a hospital. My heart skips instantly. “What… happened to me?” I ask weakly with a raspy voice as I turn my head to Maya, drawing her attention. Her head snaps up, and relief washes over her face. “You’re awake! Thank God!” she exclaims, quickly rising from the chair and darting out of the room before I can ask anything else. Confused, I struggle to sit up. It’s then I notice the IV line fixed to the back of my hand. The sight unsettles me, though I can’t feel it. My head aches faintly, a dull, persistent throb that clouds my thoughts. I try to remember—what brought me here? The last thing I recall is sitting at the restaurant, having dinner with Maya

Clara runs to my bedside and sits beside me causing Maya to get off to give her space. Her face looks compassionate like she actually does care. From the look Maya is giving her, I'm sure I have lots of explaining to do later. “Oh my God, what happened to you?” she asks but I push her hand off me. I'm about to ask her of Leonard, where he had gone and how she’s aware of my condition when Leonard walks in. He walks closer to my bedside. His presence makes me smile. I'm happy to see him as I'm being reminded that I am pregnant for him. “What took you so long?” I ask him but he doesn't answer my question. He comes closer and takes my hand in his.“Are you okay? How did this happen? I just finished speaking with the doctor” He says. I can see concern written all over him. I open my mouth to speak when Clara suddenly stops me rubbing my hand “And you don't look so good. Are you really okay?” she says but I slowly withdraw my hand from her. I take my eyes away from her and look at my

Leonard is holding Clara's hand as they walk into the house. Clara is dressed in a radiant green dress with her blonde hair blowing about her in waves to her shoulders. I'm puzzled for a while as they laugh to each other, not realizing my presence at first. It's still midday and Leonard is back home with Clara? It's hard to put together. Leonard hates staying out of work. And they look so cozy and cheerful. I watch her smoothen Leonard's suit and whisper something into his ear which makes him smile broadly. I plan to stay quiet all through but it starts to bite my body just seeing how close they are. Seeing him let her touch him in that manner made my stomach hurt. “You are here…” I say as I drop the spoon noisily on the ceramic plate. My words startle Leonard and he pushes Clara's hands away from his body. Clara on her own side doesn't look anything close to being startled or surprised. “Hey…I didn't see you there” she says first. “You are awake,” Leonard says, smoothing his ti

She chuckles again “you know, what Leonard and I share is something you can never have or comprehend for the rest of your life. Just because you married Leonard doesn't mean he'll choose you over me. He'll always choose me no matter what” then she smiles widely. Her words hurt me but I can't let her see it. I can't lie that there might be a truth in what she's saying. It just hurt to know that she shared a part of Leonard's life with him. A part of him that I might never see. But I'm not a fighter. And that's the only reason I've not started pulling those perfectly looking blonde ponytail of hers. I fold my lips together before releasing them and a long deep breath follows it. Now it's my turn to smirk “You must be a real joker” I snap “Leonard is a very considerate person and we both know it. He's probably just being caring to an old friend.” I say and turn to walk away wanting to have the last words. But she speaks afterwards and those last words as I make it to the door comes t

When I get home, I meet Clara on the couch and Leonard kneeling close to her. He's massaging her feet. When I walk in, Leonard stands to his feet. He looks at as I walk past them without a word. I walk to my room not wanting to care about whatever it is that they were doing. My hand moves to my stomach and I rub it gently. And as I go to bed, all I can think of is my baby. I can't wait to have her in my arms. I can't wait to see my child. The thought leaves a smile on my face as I drift off to sleep. By morning, I decide to do some yoga routine just because I saw it online that it helps with pregnancy. I didn't see any sign of Leonard when I woke up. I just assumed he had gone to work. We haven't slept I the room for some days now. I miss my husband so much and that why I can't wait for his birthday which is in two days time. Thirty minutes later, after the yoga, I go downstairs to have a drink of milk and I stop in my tracks behind the kitchen door when I hear Leonard's voice whic

The next two days that follows, I'm tempted to tell Leonard that we are having a baby. He's been treating me like a newly wed. Like he just fell in love with me. And I've also realized that Clara, in as much as she's staying with us, I've not disturbed my pretty head about her in any way. It's like she's been out of my way as much as I've been out of her way. That little rejection I heard in the kitchen that day never left my head and I've felt like a winner since then, walking around the house with my head held so high, waiting for the moment she'll try something that will make me remind her how Leonard has rejected her. Somehow I've grown a conviction that she is not at all pregnant and I wonder how Leonard is going to react when he finds out that she's not pregnant. But I can't say anything to him, I don't have any proof so, she should just enjoy the little part of him that she still has, the little part of him I've decided to let her have just for a little while. I wake up this

“They look so good together!” one comment reads. “Clara’s been his shadow lately. Do I smell a romance brewing?” another says.“His wife must be furious. Oh wait, does he even have one anymore?” yet another comment reads. I stare at the screen—at all the comments, unable to look away. The words blurs as tears threaten to spill, but I force them back as I bring myself out from social media, and from the blog post. I couldn't keep reading any of the comments. I press Leonard’s number again, the ringing loud in my ear, like a cruel reminder of his absence. Once again, it goes to voicemail. I dont leaving any message this time. What will I even say?My phone starts ringing as I drop it on the table so that I can calm my head and try to think. I pick it up hastily hoping it's Leonard calling to explain what happened. To say that he forgot or that Clara forced him or maybe that she fell sick or something that made him to go to a gala I knew nothing about with her. But my disappointment

The moment my eyes lands on her, my body stiffens. It's enough to make my heart lurch and my stomach twist into a knot. I almost feel like throwing up. Clara is standing at the door, her blonde hair tied into a ponytail. She's also dressed casually in a play suit and a white All stars. Leonard reacts instantly stepping in front of me as if to shield me and stop me from seeing who he is talking to but it's too late already. I've seen her fully.“Eve, go back inside. I'll take care of this” he says but I don't move. I can't move. My body suddenly feels stiff and heavy. I'm trying to understand what is happening. “Didn't I tell you to leave? I told you to go okay?” I hear him tell Clara but his voice is soft like he's begging her instead of instructing her. “I can't Leo. It's not like I knew you guys were coming here. Your mom gave me the place to use for a few days.” She speaks boldly like she has every right to be here or be around here. I still haven't found anything to say. I

“What is it?” He asks the moment he walks into the kitchen.“Someone is here other than the two of us” I tell him, pointing at the sink filled with dirty plates and pot. He walks closer to me “are you sure? No one has access to this place but me and my mom” I stroll to the sink and put my finger into the pot “and it looks like it was just used recently. Babe don't you think we are being watched or worse, ambushed?” I say, my voice quieter but edged with so much unease.He chuckles, his head tilting slightly as he studies me, dipping both hands into his trouser pockets. “Come on, Eve, really? What are you talking about? It was probably the people who did the renovation. They were possibly hungry and decided to make good use of the kitchen before we arrive. Remember I told you it wasn't in use before” He says “There's no one here other than us, I promise.” I want to believe him. The logical part of me fights against the creeping paranoia, reminding me that it could very well be the w

I'm sitting still in front of my dressing mirror smiling at myself as I apply some makeup on my face. Just last night, I spoke to Maya and didn't sound like she was still upset with me. Even though over the week she'd tried not to be pushy or show any resentment but I always knew from her tone when she spoke that she was still really skeptical that I am back with Leonard but last night, when I spoke to her, she sounded happy for me. When I finished my makeup, I find my way downstairs to find Leonard. I'm finally going to break off the news about our pregnancy to him on this trip we are going for. I don't see him anywhere in the living room. The last time I saw him, he asked some of the servants to take our luggage to the top of the roof where the helicopter was waiting. I open my mouth to call his name but turning around I see him walking inside the house looking all dashed like the most handsome man I know him to be. He's in a simple black shirt and brown plain trousers. “Hey..”

“You are here,” he says upon seeing me. “Where's Clara?” I find myself asking.“She's err…it's just us” he replies. “Come have a seat” Accepting his offer and wondering why he's speaking so calmly to me, I walk to sit down a far length away from him. Opposite the couch he's sitting. “I didn't come here because you asked me to, just so you say” I announce. He sighs “Eve, I'm sorry. It wasn't supposed to be like this” he says. And I can hear it in his voice that he is being sincere. That he means his apology. “Clara, and I, we…please I want you back home. Back here. Forget about Clara. It's you I want to be married to.” he says. He goes quiet after that with neither of us saying anything until when I can't hold it in anymore. “But why Leonard? What happened to choosing me? Why? And on your birthday. Why Clara? Why me?” “I said I'm sorry.” He cuts in “you know how difficult it is for me to apologize and since I am, you should believe that I am very serious about what I am saying

When I wake up the next morning, I find my phone and switch it on only to see too many notifications and messages from Leonard. As much as I don't want to open any of the messages, I feel the need to tap on the message and read through. He sent tons of apology messages. Saying how he would want to see. And if I could come back to the house. One of the messages also says that he misses me. One says he wants me to come back home so that we can talk. I think for a second. Maybe there's a good reason why he did what he did. Maybe Clara forced him to. Maybe I misunderstood what I saw. I type in a reply that I'll come home today and send it to him. I want to look at his face and hear what he has to say. Weather or not he lies, I don't want to know. I just want to hear the reason he did what he did. If I wasn't enough for him anymore. After sending the reply, I come down from the bed and walk to the standing mirror at one end of the room. I look at myself. My belly has started making s

I watch Leonard hastily turn around to look at me. Somehow I feel like it's a dream. I feel like my heart is about to give and I'll die as I stare at Leonard in bed with another woman, someone whom I don't recognize at first. I stand there glued to the ground. I don't notice when my phone falls off to the ground. I'm lost, it's like the whole world disappears until I hear Leonard’s voice. He's now standing a few feet from me away from the bed.“Why didn't you knock?” He says. And heaven knows if I can now, I'll shoot him. Is that all he has to say to me? Is he being serious? And now, I can see it clearly. My heart fails even more as I look at the woman sitting in bed. Clara looks at me. There's no remorse whatsoever on her face. I don't know what to say. I get strong urges to run to the bed and tear her apart. But I can't. My legs feel so heavy to move from their positions. My head hurts. My heart aches and my eyes feel they are about to poop out from their sockets. “You should ha
