"What would you like to know exactly? That we've known each other for years? Or the fact that  I am married to her legally? That she is my wife or the fact that we love each other and can't live without each other? What more do you need to know exactly?" I folded my arms around my chest, staring at his eyes which was already filled with raged.

"Tell me all these are jokes. Like seriously?" He smirked. "You must be joking."

"This is the bitter  truth you wouldn't  wanna know but you want to hear them."

"What the hell are you saying, you must be joking." He released my cloth suddenly and groaned. "I want to hear the side of  her story, I'll be back."

I gasped and grabbed myself on the waist as I watched him left in anger.

    ~~~"Awwn awwn –not bad." We all cackled as Amy jested."Thanks love. I love you." I rued at her. "You deserve more." She said in a wide smile."So girl, I wanna get busy. Take care of yourself." Doctor Emilia said as she moved closer to me, placing her palm on my cheek."When will I be discharge mum? I hope I will get discharge today?" I wrapped my hand around the flask in between my leg."Not today darling –""Come on mum. I need to be discharged today, in fact now. Everyone is here to take care of me, I will be fine.""OK love, I trust that. You will be discharged today then." She conceded, and waggled her hand as if giving up."Awwn, thanks mum." I gestured happily. Mum left in a grinned and placed her hand softly on Arnold's shoulder."So tell me babe. Why are you in a rush to get discharged?" Amy wrapped her arm around her bosom and shook her head towards me expecting an answer."You know the answers to that already. Did you know how much she has missed –Oh my–" Lilian teased

    ~~~I squinted my eyes as the morning sunlight conjured the most brilliant of mosaics, reflecting from each leaf and wisp of cloud. It was as if there was a pure joy in the light, as if it were happy to create art where it shone, warm and steady.I took a glimpse of the back of a tall man standing at the window. I protected my eyes with my hand as he spread the curtains to allow the sunshine into the room."Come on! It is morning love." Arnold clasped his hand and walked towards me on the bed."Arnold!" I grunted as I bounced back on the bed. "I need more sleep." I murmured and shut back my eyes.Arnold pulled off the duvet from me and dragged me up from the bed. "You gonna be late for work, don't be lazy.""Arnold!" My eyes still remained closed.His cold lips clashed on my forehead, "Thanks for the night." Then, to my nose.I groaned and opened my eyes half. He moved down to the long table glass that was placed beside the window in the room. He brought down the tray on it, then mo

    "I saw that Mrs.– Mrs what?" Victor cackled annoyingly. "What a funny joke."We both walked pass the noisy section of staffs– which were tied down on their sit, their finger tips made the sound of the keyboard and the floor was littered with A4 papers. This was because of the project assigned to each staff of the company which they had to submit at the end of the week. The aim of this particular project is to make LA company signed a contract with us which that would promote our company.The staff that got the privilege to hold a meeting or a presentation with that company through the project will surely be promoted. I guessed that was why they are working really hard, and they barely noticed me.Some of them bowed down before me as I walked into the elevator. I attempted to press the 4th floor before Victor stopped that by holding onto the door.He smirked, "Are you leaving me behind my beautiful lady?" He moved into the elevator and reached for the 10th bottom."What are you doing?

    I horned harder to alert the white Camry car that was parked in front of mine abruptly in the company's park. I stretched out my neck to check if the driver of the car was in it or not. Different kind of cars, I could sight a black Honda car and the sort occupied the park already which makes it impossible for me to go through another lane.A dark skinned weighed hand wagged out of the car's window which signaled 'sorry'. He took off immediately he kicked the car, then he drove out of the silver gate as the security man who was clad in a royal blue trouser, and a powdered blue t.shirt opened up the gate, flagging down.I did the same. I thought of the call I received this morning from Loveth. It seems she wanted to say something, but she kept herself from speaking out. What could be wrong with her? As much as I know Loveth, she is a strong girl and she could fight all her worries herself without the help of anyone.The white Camry

I removed the phone from the ear and esponded to the person at the door.A young skinny lady in her twenties walked in to my office. She has this tiny cat eyes with a very dark eyeball.

    "Arggh!" I rose up from bed reluctantly to an heavy headache. I clutched my head tightly and slipped my hand into my hair. I screwed up my eyes to the bright sunlight that reflected through the drapery."You drank so much yesterday."I turned to the direction the voice came through. My eyes widened up just immediately. I gazed at him in awe as he sat on the cushion with a glass of water in his hand. I looked away for a few seconds and looked back to check if I was only dreaming. A smile fell down from my lips at the confirmation of my visibility."Ar–""Don't even call out my name Monica," he cut me off shortly. "Why did you need to drink so much at the party?""Noo, I –""No? No! I told you I will be back just yesterday from my traveling, which you insisted I needed to finish up whatever task I had in Singapore before coming back home.

I scurried down to her in my black heels, clad in a nude gown that exposed half of my lap.

I still can't help to think of it, that my dad was actually responsible for my mum misfortune."Hi love!"I nodded my head and stared at him with strong gaze.
