I was surprised Greg came home today. After what transpired between us this morning, though he said hurtful things, I wasn't going to stop pestering him to call Sheila and Mr Noah back.

I welcomed him and Pete. They passed me and went ahead to his room. I continued watching TV because I couldn't sleep. I slept almost throughout the day. I miss having Sheila and the workers around. Their presence made me feel I wasn't alone.

I heard footsteps from the stairs and saw Pete coming down. We both greeted each other again. After exchanging pleasantries, I noticed he was bothered about something. He looked like someone who had something to say judging by how he didn't leave immediately. I took the initiative to ask him what was wrong.

" What's wrong Pete?, Do you have something to tell me" I asked

    I moved backwards as he was moving closer to me." You brought another bastard into my house to have sex with you? Are you that sex starved! He roared.I didn't say anything and just looked at him indifferent with no ounce of fear. He could see I wasn't afraid of him and that made him more angry. " Let me have your phone" he said calmlyI gave him the phone. I had given him the phone before I realized I haven't changed my password since I got the phone back in high School. As a teenager then, I used my crush's name as my phone's password to always remember him." Your password" he askedI hesitated to tell him because I knew it was going to cause more problems if I told him. " I….I…. don't know" I stuttered" Don't try me Sophie, your password" he demanded" It's….. it's….."" Is there something you're hiding from me? If there isn't , you shouldn't have any problem telling me your password" he said" It's …………Mike" I said, since I didn't have anything to hide.His reaction to what I

    The following morning, I was waiting for him since 4am. He came down around 6am and was fully dressed for work. He was shocked to see me seated on the sofa while waiting for him at that time of the day. He looked at me and walked towards the door. I immediately stood up and ran towards the door before he opened. I blocked him from opening the door. He looked at me with his gaze piercing through my soul, I refused to back down. I asked with all boldness, " Why did you reject my admission?"" Because I don't want you to attend that university" he said calmly"Why?" I inquired eager to know the reason why " You don't have the right to question my decision" he said coldly " I am going to question this particular decision since it's concerning me and my future" I retorted back despite the cold look he was giving me." And I am what? Your past?" He said moving closer with his piercing gaze still on me" I didn't say that" I replied wondering where that was coming from" You didn't say

    It's been four weeks since Greg came home. I've been living in this whole mansion alone with few staff that were Left. We never bothered to call or check on each other. Things were different this time. I had the freedom to go out with his car. I couldn't drive, so we have an in-house driver. Though he wasn't coming home, he made sure everything was available to me. He sent Pete to me a few weeks back to give me a debit card to get things I needed. After collecting the card from Pete, I thanked him. I realized he was hesitant to leave, I asked him what the problem was, he just smiled and said nothing. I knew he was waiting for me to ask about Greg, but I didn't.I've made a few friends these past few weeks from the market since I was the one cooking at home now. I have also been going out to see the city and also eat out sometimes. I didn't touch his debit card to get anything for myself. I had enough change from the money Nana sent to me as a gift for passing my entrance exam.It wa

    Diana and I were in our dormitory watching a comedy video on my phone when a message notification popped up on my phone. It says, " Your husband is sick and has been hospitalized for a week" The message was from Pete, Greg's assistant. Diana and I both looked at each other at the same time after reading the message. She was looking at me to see how I would react to the message. Truth is, I felt something I couldn't explain in my heart. It's been two months since I've heard from him. The only bit of him I see is on the news about him and Rose. " You have to go home and check up on him" Diana said" You think so? He has people around him, I don't think my attention would be needed" I said" It doesn't matter, and this is the best time to put all I've taught you into practice. This is the best time to apply them" Diana repliedAfter our last conversation about Greg, she has been teaching me for months thinking I'd start applying for them after our semester's break when I'll get to
