The words pierce my heart, scattering it into a thousand pieces. I could not breathe properly. It was just as if all the air in my lungs evaporated as those words fell out of his lips. Those lips, the same red rosy lips I love to bite and claim with mine. The lips that know exactly how to pleasure me in the right way and places.Those same lips are the same ones that have been pleasuring another body that is not mine and is spewing out these heart wrenching words.I don't understand, my brain, unable to comprehend all that was happening.I look up and stare at the eyes that once held so much love for me. The same emerald green eyes that lit up every single time it saw me, were filled with mockery. It is mocking me. Mocking my love for him."Why, Tristan?, you should be apologizing, trying to fix our marriage not end it" My hands were holding the collar of his shirt. I was shaking him and yelling like a banshee hoping that by doing so he would wake up from whatever he was in. If there

Today is a shitty day for me. After gulping down gallons of tea, listening to bored talks and the pain of long flights, I failed to secure the kH deal simply because the finance team failed to submit an accurate budget for the project. It happened that there was a last minute addition to the budget which somehow managed not to be present in the budget that was submitted to me and not only did I utterly humiliate myself and lost the deal, I am on my way to the airport to board a plane back to New York to receive a lecture on responsibilities from my father and demeaning remarks from my brother, who had been after my position since day one."I want a meeting with the head of the finance department first thing tomorrow morning." I instruct my Sarah, secretary who has been trembling since the meeting and despite the fact that she was seating in the front seat very close to the car's cooling system, she is still sweating, despite the cool temperature of the car.I let out a frustrated sign

"Do you have any idea of the problem what your irresponsibility have cost the company?". My father's voice thunders throughout the enter house.After arriving home from the airport, I have been sitting on one of the cushions in the sitting room for the past one hour listening to my father's words as he paces round the place and going on with his lecture as he always does. He and Alex were already present in my house when I returned. I make a mental note to change my passcode as soon as they leave.I keep my mouth shut because one of the things Mr Gideon hates is excuses. I couldn't even defend myself. What happened was not my fault but saying that now will be adding more fuel to the fire and I will be grateful if someone can ask my father to keep his mouth shut."He is just a child, and the load on his shoulders are much for him to handle". I turn to the direction of the voice. I know that voice very well. It belongs to my elder brother, Alex, who has made it his utmost goal to make me

6:45 amBuzz!I wake up to my alarm blaring my ears off. I bang my hands on the alarm clock to switch it off. I glance over to the wall clock and it hits me, I have less than an hour to prepare for my interview. I yawn as I stand from my bed, rubbing my sleepy eyes with the back of my hands before heading to the living room.On getting to the sitting room, I see Alice and Nate, who returned yesterday after hearing that I was around and about what Tristan did to me, sleeping peacefully on the sofa. Alice legs are spread across that of Nate's.
