Malik lays on his bed with his hands under his head. He is staring at the ceiling with cluelessness in his eyes. His thoughts are random and haphazard, he is almost on the verge of running crazy right now. He adds a pillow under his head but he still doesn't feel comfortable. How can he get any comfort when what happened in court keeps coming back to his mind? He grabs his phone, he hasn't looked through it for days now and she knows that it might be flooding with texts from his workplace and his father too. His father doesn't care for him, it's true, but his father knows that he needs him to run the company successfully so he is probably trying to get him to go back to work easily. A knock on his door and he turns to it. " Come in, Mary. " He answers. Mary walks in with a cup of tea in her hand and she sighs sadly before walking over him with the cup in her hand. She doesn't set it down as he expects her to, instead she looks at the cup and then at him, she expects him to tak
The past week has been the worst of Edna's life. She has cried her soul out of her body and she even thought of killing herself. Now she is sitting in front of the mirror after a bath and looks at herself in the mirror. She looks strange, nothing like herself. She used to be miserable, it's totally normal, but it's so different this time around. Her eyes are so red from crying that that's how they have been for so long now. She is running a temperature and her head seems to want to split into two with an ax. She grabs her face cream and squirts some of it on her hand and rubs it into smoothness. She starts to slowly apply it over her face in circular motion. She is staring into her reflection and waiting for the gray gloominess to go away magically with the aid of the cream if it doesn't happen. All she gets is this extra oiliness on her face that outlines all the sadness on her face, her dark spots from sleepless nights, and the impact of Keith's blows. She clenches her teeth
It sounds like something from a bad dream, but when Edna wakes up with her head being held in her hands she realizes that it's not a dream, someone is banging on the door of the room as if wanting to uproot. Her insecurity can't make her go off to bed with the door unlocked, not after everything that she has been through. " Edna! " Keith roars. " Open the fucking door if you don't want to die. "Of course, it's Keith. It was past midnight and she didn't think that he was interested in coming back home today. She unlocks the door and he grabs her by the throat and pushes her back till she falls on the bed. He saddles her and grabs her hair too. Apart from muffled grunts of pain, she doesn't react. " You think you are Crazy, don't you?" He slams her. " You think that you have grown so much that you can tell my father what you would do and what you want? We own you. "Mister Jackson probably told him that she has refused to go back to work and that she has refused to do the intervie
Edna only starts to cry when she gets back into the car and slams the door shut. Her shoulders shake and her hands tighten around the wheel till they turn white. Her face wrinkles up as the sobs leave her mouth heavily, she doesn't know why she is crying so much. She isn't even supposed to be having sex with the guy because she is supposed to be married to his brother but here she is crying her heart out. She holds her hand over her mouth and wipes the tears, but they just keep coming back. She hates her life, she hates that she is jealous that Malik had sex with that perfect Lawyer and that she feels so bad right now. She grabs her phone and dials Malik's number before she can even stop herself. The phone rings, but as usual, he doesn't pick up. She keeps calling him nonstop for almost fifteen minutes without even stopping and he still doesn't pick up. He is very determined to cut her off from his life, isn't he? She drops her phone and pushes her hair back as she thinks. Sh
Malik waits for some time before he picks up the phone and calls Allison. He is not happy with what she did and he is going to tell her that. She picks up immediately like she has been sitting, anticipating his call. " Hello, client. " There is something sly about her voice. It almost causes him to abort his intentions of scolding her. "Hi, Allison, how are ya?" He asks. " I'm good, I'm fine. How are you?" She in turn asks. " I don't know. " He sighs. " Edna just left and she told me what you did. "He hears Allison heave over the phone, but he calmly waits to hear why she did what she did. " She is such a crybaby. " She laments. " Why did you tell her we had sex?" He asks. " Why not?" Allison laughs. " She shouldn't have a problem with that, should she?"" What were you aiming for when you told her that? What reaction did you want to get from her?""I just wanted to know if you guys are having fucking or something. " She casually answers. " From the look of things, maybe. "M
Edna has been acting nonchalant towards her life and marriage since she has been unable to divorce Keith, but right now it's different. She feels ashamed that Anna and her family are going to find out that she is not the perfectly happy married woman they thought she was. She is afraid that they will notice dirt on the perfectness of her life and she won't seem to be so perfect to them again. It's because she makes up her mind to attend the dinner. It's barely an hour since Anna left and she just got an invitation text from Mister Jackson and she is going to attend it. Mister Jackson is going to be pleased, he is going to be so happy because she will be saving his face alongside hers. It would make a lot of sense if she goes there with Keith, but she knows that Keith might not like that. Keith is a very strange kind of person because sometimes he acts like she is irritating to him and the next he acts like he actually likes her. She doesn't know if they are at the side of the b
Edna feels as if she has been drenched with ice-cold water, from her head down to her toes. She is mortified by what she has just had and it hits her so hard that she doesn't even get the chance to hide her emotions. She has been staring at them with her eyes wide open, almost drowned in her tears. Keith snickers, he knows what's going on with her and he wants to further humiliate her. " Wait, you guys are getting married?" Edna asks as soon as she finds her voice. " Yes. " Anna answers, a bit lost that she seems to just be hearing about it now. " Are you just getting to know me, honey?" Mrs. Lucy asks. "No. " Edna lies. " I'm just so happy for my friend. "She pulls Anna so quickly that she yelps. Edna shuts her quivering eyelids and rests her face again on the side of Anna's neck. She sniffs so often that she pulls away not to soil Anna with her tears. She tried so hard not to cry but the tears just have a mind of their own and they don't stop coming. "Oh, your friend is s
Edna woke up the next day feeling sore everywhere. Her mouth hurts the most and so does between her legs. Keith did what he does best last night and she sighs sadly as she tries not to recall the events of last night. She feels something rising up her throat and without warning, she grabs the sheets and throws them to the ground, and dashes to the bathroom. She is almost tripped by the long sheets, but that doesn't stop her from getting to the toilet in time. She falls over it with her back bent and she begins to throat up. The sound of her puking is terrible, she clutches her belly and continues vomiting, hoping not to die. Finally, when she is done, she washes her mouth and slides to the ground. She is sweating, her sweat irritates her, its smell repels her and she takes her shirt off her. She gets up to her feet and she walks into her closet, she is going to grab a shirt and take a quick bath, maybe when she is done she is going to be able to go back to sleep. When she gets
