Nicole.

I took a deep breath knowing this night would be longer than I’d thought.

“Can I come in?” I asked, trying to be as polite as I could.

She didn’t speak, just merely stared at me with a frown on her face.

“What are you doing here?” She asked when she was done with her observation.

“I came to see my father. Is he inside?” I asked, squeezing the car key.

I knew he was inside since his car was parked at the front.

“He is but I don’t think he would want to see you,” again I was forced not to roll my eyes.

“Can I come in?” I asked again, she let out a huff before moving aside and letting me in.

“Stay here. I will call him downstairs.” Of course, she wouldn’t let me go upstairs even though this is my house and I have every right to go any place I want.

And like the obedient person I have been all those years, I took a seat on the couch as I waited for her. It took her more than five minutes to come back downstairs with Dad walking behind her.

“Nikki, I didn’t know you'd be coming ove

    Nicole.“Dear—“ Dad tried to speak but Theresa was already in the living room.“You shouldn’t just make decisions because of a one-time thing. He remains your husband whether you like it or not, right now is the time for you to act like the one in charge. You shouldn’t leave your marriage because your husband slept with his ex, it’s uncalled for.”I stared at her for a while before bursting into laughter; to divorce my cheating husband is uncalled for?“You know what Dad, since you are not going to be on my side I’m leaving. But you should know that I meant it when I said I’m divorcing Jack.” I turned around to leave.“Stop being selfish and listen to what we are saying for once!” Dad yelled and I stopped walking, turning around to look at him.“Selfish? You still think I’m selfish after everything I have done for you?” I asked and went on without waiting for his answer.“I have sacrificed my whole life and career because of you dad, what more do you want from me? I married a man whom

    Jackson.I stared at the door after Nicole walked out of the house, there was nothing I could do but stare at it.It feels like a dream, everything happened in a flash. One minute I was in my home office trying to go through the papers I couldn’t do at the office and the next, Laura was standing at the door with a glass of wine in her hand, leaning against the doorframe in nothing but those damn net lingerie. She knows how weak I am in seeing her in that, I have always loved when she wore those when we were dating.“Laura, what’s this about?” I asked, dropping the file on the table and leaning back on my chair so I could see her well.She smiled at me and slowly pulled from the door, walking towards me barefoot. I tried my best not to look at her body but it’s hard not to look. She’s practically naked in front of me except for the flimsy net covering nothing and is expected not to look. She handed the drink to me and I took a gulp from it before dropping it on the table and went on as

    Nicole.My husband coming late to his own wedding should have been the first thing to tell me he wasn’t ready for this marriage.I mean, I was standing at the altar waiting for him—which was supposed to be his duty, for about an hour before he showed up with messy hair, a ruffled suit jacket, and a smirk on his face.That should have given the sign that he’s a fucking red flag but I love him too much to look past his mistakes. Maybe he slept late the night before and couldn't wake up early, like I said I will do anything for this man. We proceeded with the marriage; not like I could say no to it since I loved him.They told me getting married is the most beautiful feeling on earth, falling in love, getting pregnant, and holding your child for the first time after hours and hours of long labor is the most amazing feeling ever.At least that’s what I was told.The people I called family told me I could do greater things if only I could just be more docile and allow them to direct me on

    Nicole.I dialed his number again and it rang for the first time, no reply came but on the second ring, he picked up causing my racing heart to calm down a bit.“Jack……” I started but got interrupted by his hurried words.“I’m sorry Nicole, I can't come home tonight. I have a slight problem, until then.”Beep. Beep. Beep.The sounds were the only thing that made me know that he had ended the call, I couldn’t believe it. He ended the call without even hearing anything from me, what problem is he dealing with right now? Was his company in trouble?I nervously bit my lip as I stared at my phone hopelessly, I wanted to call him back and ask what was going on but knowing Jack he wouldn’t like that.So I decided to check the internet for news about his company, I mean if anyone could know what his company was going through apart from me that would be the media.Jack hardly tells me anything about his work and anything he is doing, at times it feels like I’m staying, married, and living with

    Nicole.I stared at her waiting to see if she was joking but the look on her face told me everything I needed to know that she meant this. She really wants me to go pick up whatever she’s expecting.“I….I can’t do that.” I answered and her eyes hardened.“What did you say?” She asked.I brought my eyes down and repeated what I had said earlier, I was met with silence after, and for a minute she didn’t say anything.She burst into laughter breaking the silence and causing me to squirm in my spot.Mrs Davenport was a woman no one wanted to mess with, not even me.“Look here, your only job in this house is to do as I say and then please my son since that’s what you’re good at.” Her words stung but I forced myself not to say anything.They all think I’m good for nothing because I’m unable to give my husband a child. But I’m not useless, I’m pregnant now.“Your main purpose here is this,” she pushed the piece of paper into my chest.“Remember we can easily pull our shares out and stop supp

    Nicole.I spent the rest of my afternoon picking Jackson’s mother's orders. There were many flowers and by the way they were decorated, I could tell they were meant for a party.I kept on checking my phone while doing that to know if Jackson had called back or even texted but I was always met with nothing.The flowers were arranged in the car and we left after getting everything she ordered.I couldn’t stop thinking about the picture even when I tried to, seeing how good they were together again was like seeing them years back.Laura was his first love…..and maybe last. He doesn’t love her as much as he did years ago—or maybe I don’t know much about him. Is his lack of reaction anytime her name is brought up a sign that he’s over her?They were the perfect couple in everyone's eyes and then I came in, my family—father's business -- was in dire need of help and to get that Jackson and my father decided to place the two of us in an arranged marriage—I know it isn’t that common these day

    Jackson. A muffled sound of something humming woke me up, I blinked continuously until my eyes were able to adjust to the bright lights. The humming sound stopped as soon as my eyes connected with the ceiling, I frowned looking around. Where the hell am I? I tried thinking of what happened last night but nothing my head was blank and….. I stopped trying to think what happened when another door in the room opened and someone stepped out. Not someone but Laura, what the fuck was Laura doing here? In my house? Wait, was this my house? “Oh, you are awake. Good morning Jack.” She greeted me with a beautiful smile on her face. Even without makeup, Laura looks pretty no wonder every single brand wants her as their ambassador. “Laura, why are you here?” I asked while sitting up on the bed and noticed something awkward. I looked down at my body and my frown deepened when I saw I was naked. Not just naked from upward as I normally do when I sleep at night but I was completely

    Nicole. The car was at the gate when my phone vibrated in my lap, feeling excited knowing Jack had finally replied because he’s the only one who I get calls and texts from. My smile widened as I opened my phone, only to frown when I saw what the message was. It wasn’t a text from Jackson alright but a recent news that just popped up, it was another picture of Jackson and Laura coming out of a hotel. Jackson was still in his previous clothes which meant that he was with her all night. I read the caption ‘IS THIS A SIGN THAT THEY ARE BACK TOGETHER?’’ I wanted to go into the phone and slap some senses into the writer, they shouldn’t just say anything just because of a picture. Who knows, maybe Jackson and Laura didn’t stay in the same room, maybe they met in the lobby or something? I thought as I tried coming up with an excuse for his behavior again but the next picture of him coming out of the same room with Laura changed my mind. They didn’t just meet but they both slept

    Nicole.It felt like I couldn’t breathe as I stared at Jack. The sound coming from them was too loud that they haven’t even realized I was standing there watching them as they fucked each other's brains out.My husband Jack had his arm securely wrapped around his ex-girlfriend who was naked in his lap as they both moaned enjoying themselves.I found it hard to see them after a while, my sight was blurry.“J….Jack.” I called, and even after calling his name they still didn't have any idea I was here.I sniffed, clenching my hand beside me as I called his name again, this time a bit louder than the first.“Shit!” Jack cursed, pushing Laura from his lap as he got up.He stared at me in shock as he grabbed his pants from his waist down and tried putting it on.“It’s not what you think, Nicole.” He said and I scoffed.Not what I think?He has his cock deep inside his ex-girlfriend and he’s telling me it isn’t what I think.“How long?” I asked, surprising myself for being this calm.I was r

    Nicole.I huffed as I lifted the bag on the ground, it seemed like a pretty hard task seeing how light the bag looked.I looked around the parking lot and tried remembering why I was here again—oh right, my mother-in-law needed some pizza and some other item and I was the one being sent out to get them. Again.I know anyone in my condition would’ve given up and left already, but I can’t. I love him and I want to stay with him and I don’t think I can leave now that I’m pregnant. I wouldn’t want my child to grow up without having his/her father by her side.I would hate to do that to them.My lips curled up in a smile as I thought of my child, I can’t wait to hold him/her in my arms. I know that will be the happiest day of my life and I also believe their presence would change Jack's mindset about his ex.I finally gathered the courage to pick up the bags from the ground, groaning a bit as I wondered what the heck I bought inside the store.I closed the trunk, turned around, and was rea

    Nicole.The next four days went by in a blur and I still wasn’t able to tell Jack about the baby. After he made me promise not to see Rowan the night of the party I didn’t speak to him the next day. I hated how he brought up the reason we got married, I hated how he made me feel like a gold digger when I have done nothing but love him.My days went as they always were, waking up early to prepare food for his family—the ones who wouldn’t stay at their own house. Shirley was gifted a big mansion by her brother on her birthday and this mansion came with cars, househelp, and whatever she needed. Why she still stays here baffles me, same with Janice.This morning I felt too tired and sluggish to get up, it was just after seven and I felt sleepy like I hadn’t slept for days even though I went to bed pretty early.These past few days had made my suspicions about his cheating so higher than this freaking mansion, every day I received one or two pictures of Jack and Laura being overly sweet an

    Nicole.I know I shouldn’t have waited when he told me we would discuss that later but I did. I waited for him for hours and he was yet to come, I didn’t know when I started crying.I climbed into bed since I already had my bath. I laid down but couldn’t sleep no matter how hard I forced myself to.It felt like my heart was being poked at by tiny needles every second, it felt like I couldn’t breathe.I hate feeling this way; this heartbroken and useless. The only time I have felt this way was when I lost my mom, I completely lost it when I found out she was gone. I thought my world had ended and now I’m feeling the same way as Jack.I thought marrying him would heal me, that he would fall in love with me but I was wrong.I let out a sniff and paused when I heard my phone vibrate on the bedside table, I cleaned my eyes before picking it up wondering who was texting me.No one has my phone number except my husband, my father, and Jack's family.I unlocked my phone and saw it was indeed

    Nicole.My night was awful.After that little drama I had with Laura and Jack they came downstairs two minutes later looking like nothing happened. I tried to think that nothing happened between them but deep down there’s a fawning feeling that what I saw was what happened.Janice hasn’t stopped showing everyone to Laura, it was like she was a masterpiece and that was her job which she is fucking proud of. Nobody has ever looked at me with that look in my life, it’s either I’m a disappointment or I am a nobody. I wish Janice would introduce me to everyone the same way she was with Laura.I gulped down my drink, squeezing the glass in my hand.The other thing that caused my night to be awful was the dress Laura and Jack decided to wear. They were both glued to each other like they were a couple and the choice of their color would make anyone believe they were indeed a couple.I have been at the same spot for an hour or two now and my husband hasn’t come over to ask how I was feeling.I
