"I–I need to tell you something Monica."
"What do you need to tell me? I know there is surely something bothering you. I would like to hear it, go on." I leaned back on my chair twirling the pen on the desk in my hand.
"I– I–"
A knocked came through the door as she was about to talk further. "Hold on Loveth! Come in!" 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. A long chin which made her pretty of a lady. "Hello ma!" She had a normal lady's voice. "The CEO called for an impromptu meeting and you need to be there ma'am."

"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?

"Arnold! Arnold! All he said are lies. He just want to ruin our relationship. Arnold! Will you please just listen to me, talk to me please. Please Arnold!" I defended again when we got to the living as he tried to leave for the room, leaving me all alone."What have you both done in the past?" He turned to face me, wrapped his arm around him and said further, "he mentioned you guys had something in the past, and you are here telling me everything are lies? I was there Monica. I have been there for so long while you guys are chatting. I heard everything he said to you, everything! Why did you came back to me when you don't actually love me anymore? You should have just let me leave for abroad instead of you coming back to me. You should have just be with him. I would have let you go if you told me back then that you are happy with him, with just his touch on your skin, but you told me you guys had no relationship or whatsoever. Why are you doing this?"

My hands were on the grey colour cabinet in the kitchen as I sensed someone at the entrance. I looked briefly at the door bumping my eyes into the microwave that was placed at the end side of the placement. Loveth rested slantly against the wall with her two arms folded around each other.Loveth arrived with Arnold the day he scurried out of the room due to the emergency call he received from her.It happens that Loveth had to escaped from the USA because of her fiancé insults on her. He never allowed her to leave the house, not even to work. She came back to Nigeria with bruises all over her faces, and she had been trying to explain them all to me to save her from him, but I never had the time to listen to her."Hey! Sister-in-law!" She walked closed to me and pressed her lower back against the cabinet, where the toasting machine is placed. A cupboard was hung up there, straight to where she was.

I knocked at the wooden door in the house. I forgot to mention the house being of different phases. The room was just a little stepped away from the living room with other rooms beside it. Since Arnold had decided to pack his luggage away from our room to avoid me, he had made the guest room his.I switched on my phone to check what time it was as I got no response while knocking at the door for the past few minutes now. Has he slept already? I need to speak to Arnold this night. I just hoped he opened up the door for me. I knocked again, there comes a slight opened of the door. My heart skipped as I held on the door knob. I shut my eyes closed and moved inside the bedroom after few seconds of drama.I am just being scared of what the outcome could be. I stood closed to the door after I locked it back.The only brightness that was visible in the room was that of his screen laptop. I heard the sound as he used his finger tips on the keyboard. He sat on the bed like a student reading f

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

I almost lost my own life. You wouldn't have been here if not for God Ai because both of us would have been dead by now all because of him. So what is he doing here? Why are you here?" Mum raised her voice higher at him."I am aware everything I did in the past could cost your life and I still kept doing it out of my own selfish motives even after I had a son already."

What happened?"I cried out then I quickly embraced him. "I am sorry dad, and I miss you," I whimpered. "I am sorry. I have made a mistake. I committed an unforgiving crime dad.""You haven't committed a crime my dear and you deserve to be angry at me. I am sorry love. Just have it in mind that I love you and your mother a whole lot."

Dad moved out of his room as I was about walking out of the house to school. Our eyes on each other. His sympathy gaze caught my attention, calling for forgiveness. 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. "I wouldn't want to be late for school dad. See you later.""I know my Ai didn't care if she got late to school or not. She just wanna avoid her irresponsible father."The word struck my hearts. My father was never irresponsible in his duties as a father. Why didn't I got the fact that all was in the past now, and my mum was finally happy."What if she is just acting like she is happy," I raised my glare at him.

Mum brought me back to life."Huhn!""You have been toying with your food since. Why aren't you eating?" Mum said in a mouthful food.I looked down at the rice and plantain that was dished in front of me."What happened dear? Are you okay?" Dad gained my attention to him."Do you have your past too dad?

"My child, go meet Brad in his room." She said in a more requested tone, with a slight must do voice."But –""There is something between he and his father that haven't been sorted out up until now. I don't want him to have such feelings of sadness about his father anymore." She had my hand on hers with her eyes fixed on it."Okay, I will go ma'am." I smiled in a tight lips then she did the same with a small of her teeth exposed out.I watched my steps carefully as I moved up the stairs like they told me not to put my foot on ground.
