Mia stepped out of the washroom and she waddled through the hallway which flows towards the sitting room. Juliet sniffed the bouquet, it scented magnificent like a mixture of bananas and mangoes. "The roses are extremely gorgeous.""No you are the one who is gorgeous." Jansen stood so close to her their nose was nearly touching and he leaned in smooching her lips.Mia reached the sitting room and she was almost stepping in she paused feeling stunned seeing Jansen. She shivered, "is that not Jansen? Or is my eyes playing tricks on me?" She rolled her eyes and she blinked thrice she looked closely at Jansen and she was aghast realizing it were him.She observed as Jansen and Juliet kissed passionately and Jansen stroking Juliet's hip. Her hands trembled and she screamed in her mind, "no way!""No...no..., " Mia muttered, "this can't be happening." She shook her head dramatically in disbelief. She felt dizzy, she almost stumbled on the floor tears gushed from her eyes. "Am I dreaming? I'
Mia calmly sat back, "Who are you?" She raised her brows."My name's Mark. I picked you up from the roadside. You were lying under the harsh rain." It dawned on Mia that it is raining. She listened to the rain roaring angrily."Would you want to have coffee?" She nodded in reply, "yes please.""Hold on a sec."She stared at him walking out of the room.After a few minutes, his footsteps started echoing in the room. Mia glanced at his feet, they were covered in a pair of jet-black boots. He stood at a corner nursing a cup of coffee. Mia noticed him staring at her as if she have wrinkles on her face she felt so unrelaxed, "what's it?"Mark advanced to her and he stretched the cup of coffee to her. His arm was lengthy as a mopstick and she grasped the cup, kneeled her head sipping the coffee through pursed lips.Mark folded his arms and he looked at her that way again. Now she found it annoying and she wore a tight frown wondering what was going on in his mind. Mark sighed and sank his
It was 12:06 in the blustery afternoon. Juliet arrived Mia's mansion she has been feeling anxious about her health and since Mia has not been replying her texts or picking her calls she wanted to pay her a visit.Jansen paced anxiously in his bedroom dialling Mia's number and he angrily hurled his phone at the wall as her number was unreachable. He felt frustrated as he has been dialling her number severally and it's unreachable. He refused to have breakfast or lunch as he was anxious wondering where Mia might be. He specked a portrait of Mia drooping on the wall and an idea floated in his mind. He yanked his phone from his jacket and he dialled his friend, Robbie.Robbie picked the call, "what's up Jansen?""I don't know where Mia is. No one knows where she is. Could you join me so we can go around the streets looking for her? It is strange she is not picking my calls and she always attend to Isabella. Her disappearance is frightening me.""Do not panick bro. Do not worry we will loo
Jansen sighed, "what have I done?" He attempted thumping Juliet's door, he still had more to say to her he swerved from the door approaching his car.Juliet sat quietly on the floor, she crossed her arms on her chest whimpering. "No, this can't be happening." She screamed, "Jansen is a jerk." She clenched her fists.It was 8:09 in the frosty night. Mia was lying in a Queen-sized-bed in the guestroom. She tossed like the waves of an ocean having a bad dream. A crystal image of Jansen and Juliet hugging and Jansen caressing Juliet's arms was appearing in her mind. Their voices was so audible it was banging in her ears it was almost as if they are presently in the room and she jolted awake sighing.Mia sat up and she patted her chest tears formed in her eyes and a tight frown settled on her face, "why do I still see you guys? You traitors. You two have no right to make my sleep uncomfortable. You two are the ones who should be uncomfortable for what I'm gonna do." She grasped her blanket
It breathed a fluorescent dawning the subsequent day. She stood in front of the mirror in her room staring at her reflection. She had just finished bathing and she wore a slim dress. She rubbed some lipgloss on her arid lips and sprayed some perfume on her dress.She heard some footsteps entering the room and she paused and glanced over her shoulder she spotted Mark standing by the door looking agaped at her bald head. He glanced at her wig lying on the table."You're bald Mia." His eyes were protruding "Yes, " tears escaped her somber eyes, "I am ill with cancer. I have a tumor in my brain."Mark's eyes shrank, he panicked. He felt anxious and ambled towards her, "it is bad. This feels unfair.""What's unfair?"Mark stood in front of her their arms were almost touching, "I just met you and I was hoping that we will make beautiful memories together but you're ill you won't have the strength spending time with me, " he touched her cheek looking into her eyes, "you look so frail you sho
Jansen hurried over to her and pulled her into a hug. He kissed her on her hair and he leaned in, his neck stretching to hers, he moved his lips nearer to hers and she moved backwards. Jansen's face was puzzled glancing at her shifting her face from his, "hon? What's wrong?""It's me. I have bad breath. I had plantains before coming here and you dislike the smell and taste of plantains."Jansen chuckled, "you still remember?"Mia stroked his cheek looking into his eyes, "I have every detail of you edged in my mind. I do not forget. That's how much I love you." She smiled wildly her incisors were divulging."Where have you been? I couldn't relax wondering where you are.""I travelled to Paris. I wanted to shop for my sister's birthday party arriving this weekend." Jansen stretched his hands towards Mia's waist, he laid his hands on her waist, "why didn't you tell me that you are travelling?"Mia gently pulled his hands from her waist. Jansen was taken aback and he got quite anxious. Mi
In the glowing incandescent dawning. Jansen arrived Juliet's apartment. He parked his car by the gate and he was dialling Juliet's number. Juliet stepped outside the gate in a pair of jet-black jeans and a red blouse to head towards a grocery store. She listened to her phone vibrating audibly and she glanced at the screen of her phone her brows furrowed seeing that it's a call from Jansen. Jansen glanced at her through his windscreen and he stepped down from the car and slammed the door. He trotted towards her. Juliet listened to his footsteps approaching her she halted and turned slowly her eyes expanded in astonishment and fury. "Juliet can we please talk?" He held her wrist and she yanked her wrist from his grip, "don't touch me!" She yelled, "we have nothing to say to each other. You are despicable Jansen.""I know I deceived you that I am single and I hid it from you but I was being sincere when I told you I love you. All the times we spent together, I was sincere about my feeli
It has been a couple of days gone. Mia has been anticipating Juliet's birthday party. It was a breezy frenzied Saturday evening. Mia hunched at her dressing table. She leaned her back in a ruddy comfy chair in one of the rooms in the resort she booked for Juliet's birthday party. She was decking herself up. She glanced at her reflection in the mirror, clasped a lipstick, swabbed her lips with it, and smudged her cheeks with foundation. She could feel the softness of the brush as it smooches her face as she applies foundation to brighten her skin tone. She applied a thin layer of primer on her skin. Her long lashes gently touched each other as as she added an eye pimer to her eyelids. Her hair was coiled nicely and they were neatly trimmed and stretched to her neck. She felt it smooching her neck. Her wig was tender and fluffy like a Norwegian Elkound puppy.Mia was wrapped up in a towel. She rose from the chair and slid her smooth feet into a pair of chubby rubber slippers, they felt
Mia's eyes grew wide as plate and she gasped feeling stunned staring at the noodles drooping on her dress. Her dress was moistened with the pasta sauce.The customers seated in the same row as Mia's table glanced over their shoulders staring at Mia and observing the stains on her dress.Juliet felt jittery seeing Mia covered in noodles and she apologized with a soft voice, "I'm so sorry I didn't mean to."Mia's face contorted and she screeched, "sorry? Or you did this on purpose.""I'm sorry Mia. If I hadn't been clumsy your dress would be okay. Please accept that it was just an accident.""You splash my order on me and you are requesting to me to take it as just an accident? How dare you tell me that? My dress is damaged and you cannot tell me to take it as just an accident. You have no right to make demands!" Mia screamed."I know your dress looks horrible but splashing the pasta on you is unintentional."Mia folded her arms and she smirked as an image of her spilling grease on the
Juliet crouched on a sofa resting her hand on her cheek pondering over the rent of her apartment soon expiring and how she is going to pay her rent. She approached several organizations requesting for a job. She also submitted her credentials and still, she did not receive any feedback. It's like they are all ignoring her on purpose. A manager of an organization she went to for an interview complained that she cannot be employed and when she asked why he explained that it is because of the viral video on-line of Mia at her birthday party accusing her of being a mistress. And that she may distract the male employees.Juliet felt insulted and embarrassed she stormed out of the Manager's office. And ever since that day, she quitted job hunting.It was a luminous Friday afternoon. Hailey arrived at Juliet's apartment. She approached the entrances to the sitting room. She noticed the door opened and she strode in.Her heels clicked on the floor as she walked across the room. Juliet listene
Jansen grasped her arms and he screamed at her face, "of course I don't want Isabella to lose her mother that's why I want you to undergo the surgery so you can recover and have more time to live with us because I cannot handle the thought of losing you. I'm afraid that I'll wake up the next morning and see your corpse lying besides me. It's that important that you live. I'm afraid that I won't have enough time to love you and to spend time with you. So I want you to undergo the surgery for our sakes. I don't want you to die hon." Tears were forming in his eyes. They obstructed his vision and spewed on his cheeks.Mia sniffed and she shook her head, "I can't. I can't do it. I can't take the risk of losing you and Isabella. What if I don't survive the surgery? What if the last time we see each other is when you escort me to the operating room? I'm too scared to die. I don't wanna. Stop telling me to undergo the surgery." "Okay hon. If it'll make you feel alright, " Jansen clasped her
Several minutes after, Jansen arrived at Mia's ward. He pushed the door open. Mia listened to the door hissing and she turned slowly and stares at the door. She glances at Jansen striding in. Jansen's lips curled into a smile seeing her awake.He halts besides her and he pecked her on her forehead, "hon how are you feeling?""Where did you go to Jansen? I opened my eyes and you were gone. How long did you leave?" Mia's face contorted in anger."I wanted to grab a snack. I was famished. Anyways Mia, I bumped into Hailey on my way here and I think that Juliet is unwell. I want you to check on her to know if she's safe.""What the hell is my business with Juliet?" Mia screeched, "and how is it your business if she is unwell? I thought she no longer matters to you since I'm your legal wife. I thought she is now a thing of your past.""I know I don't have anything to do with her anymore but what's wrong with worrying about her if she is not okay?""I don't care if she is not okay and you s
It was 8:09 in the frosty twilight. Mia was sitting up on her bed munching a burrito and staring at Jansen grinning from ear to ear. Jansen arrived her ward clasping a basket of snacks and fresh fruits. Jansen specks some sauce underneath her chin, he yanks a handkerchief and stretches his hand to her face and kneads her chin tenderly."Thank you." Mia stretches her hand towards a table beside her and she drops the burrito. She stretches slowly on her bed, she was feeling drowsy and she yawned audibly. She grabbed Jansen's arm, she yanked it nearer to her face and she leaned her cheek on it. She peeked at him under her lashes, "hon, can you lie besides me?"Jansen couldn't resist her request staring into her dull eyes, "okay hon." He climbed on the bed and Mia was starting to feel squeezed. The bed was not huge, it could only contain a person. Jansen squeezed himself on the bed, he curved and pulled himself nearer to her their arms were touching and he held her by her waist. Mia lean
"I know you enjoyed my husband!" Mia screamed, "I know you were having a good time with him, with my man!""Forgive me sister. I had no clue at all that he is your husband.""Liar!" Mia screeched, "I saw the way you two looked at each other at your party, you even flirted with him. You didn't act surprised around him, you two were chatting and he was defending you. You wanted him to be yours, you even went as far as seducing him.""I am telling the truth." Juliet's voice cracked as she spoke."Do you know how many times Jansen ditched me to be by your side? And anytime he did, I was dying inside. I wanted him near me and he was close to you. I always waited like a stupid fool expecting him to come home but he couldn't come home because you ensnared him."Juliet moved closer to Mia, she pulled her into a hug, "I love you Mia don't think I wanted to hurt you. I didn't mean to.""Stay away from me you tramp!" Mia shoved her from her arms and she hurled a slap on Juliet's cheek, "don't yo
It clocked 6:09 in the frosty dusk. Mia moved slightly on her bed, she unhurriedly opened her eyes. She has been asleep since an hour. Mia specked a figure of a person in a sparkling white dress standing besides her. Her vision was blurry and she blinked thrice till her sight got clearer and she peers again at the figure and she realizes that it is a nurse.Mia glanced left and right in her ward hoping to see Jansen near by and she asked with a weak voice, "where...where's Jansen?""He just left."Mia's brows creased, she turned her cheek to the side of the window and stares in to space. The cool breeze nudged the curtains and it flowed into the room nuzzling Mia. The breeze smooth caresses felt so tender like butter.Juliet stood in the middle of her sitting room clasping a photograph of her and Mia of their childhood and she stroked it sobbing. She leans it on her chest snuggling it. Jansen approached the entrances to the sitting room, he arrived Juliet's apartment and he parked his
Jansen held her hand gently and he leaned in pecking her on her cheek. Tears threatened to obstruct Mia's vision and she glanced at him pulling her into a hug and she shed tears on his neck."I love you Mia and I won't betray you anymore. It's gonna be you and I and our daughter. We'll be the family we were." He nuzzled her on her back and unhurriedly moved from her arms. She held his arm and looked into his eyes and he glanced at her parched lips and arid cheeks. "Tell me. How long were you planning to be with Juliet? If I didn't discover your affair, you will still be with her. Do you still love me Jansen? Did you still love me when you were with Juliet even when you kissed and snuggle her? Was I still on your mind? Or was Juliet all on your mind? You told me one time ago when I was pregnant with our daughter that you will love and cherish the two of us and that as long as you shall live she and I will be the only ones in your life. Yet you shattered that promise. What did Juliet d
"move!" Said a husky deep voice. Jansen glanced over his shoulder seeing Mark advancing to Mia. Mark arrived the resort in a red sleeveless shirt and a pair of black jeans. He arrived fifteen minutes ago, he glanced left and right in the hall looking tirelessly for Mia. He was hoping to speak to her before Juliet's party commences.Jansen's brows creased feeling quite perplexed. He glanced at Mark attempting to hold Mia and he furiously yelled, "who the heck are you? What are you doing here? How dare you come close to my wife?""Your wife?" Mark chuckled, "it's funny how you yry to act as if you care or worry about her." He frowned upon him."Who are you? You have no right to meddle with me and my wife." Jansen springs to his feet.Mark grabbed Mia off the floor. He walked past Jansen and he was walking away."Hey, what are you doing? Where are you going with my wife?" Jansen screeched. Mark waddled farther in the hall, he held Mia firmly and he leaned her face on his chest. Her legs
