Chapter 11: Pains

DaisyI've been Mrs Rosa for 10 days already. We've spent a lot of time getting to know each other in those 10 days, stopping in bed after tea and then having sex most of the night but today he seems to be in some form of mood.I don't want to know why and I don't question why either because I have problems of my own to deal with.My period started last night and so did the pain. And sweet Jesus they hurt so bad this month.I look at my phone and see that it's 10:38 am and I'm curled up in bed with a hot water bottle and Chicago Fire playing on the TV in the background.My phone has gone off a few times but I've ignored it and stayed in a curling position.Once again my phone goes off but I ignore it because every time I move my whole body hurts. Cramps are the worst and when I say the worst I mean they hurt so bad that I can't move and I prefer to sleep.The door to our bedroom opens and Antonio's annoyance comes through loud and clear."Do you not know how to answer your phone!" He

Chapter 12: Guilt

AntonioI left the house in such a foul mood. I knew I would have to calm down eventually, I knew what I said to her was out of order but I couldn't contain the anger when she didn't answer her phone. The panic I felt when she didn't answer and knowing that the Koreans are after us, I knew that I had to see her. I know she isn't lazy. I know full well that she doesn't like to sleep in and she prefers to be doing something but in that moment, after the shit morning I had already had I just snapped and I snapped at my wife who didn't do shit to deserve it and looked at me like I'd physically slapped her."So what are we going to do about this proposal?" Braden James of Jameson's Hotel and Bar asks as we all sit in the office.My mind keeps diverting back to Daisy and how she was looking pale on the bed. I didn't think too much of it but now that I have I can't help but think she must have been ill to be stopping in bed and agreeing to something even I knew she wasn't.In the few weeks

Chapter 13: Pregnant?

DaisyIt's been 35 days since my husband has been home and it's also been horrible and lonely. I spent the first few days after he left in bed after the doctor saw me and told me I probably had bruised ribs and a bit of a shiner on my cheek but nothing major that needed fixing.My period didn't even last the usual 5 days which was different for me.I've tried phoning Antonio but it always went to voicemail so I left it after day 22. I've had some of the people here gossiping about us, about how this marriage is a sham and how he deserves someone better.Every morning for the last week I have woken up in a cold sweat and being sick. I'm constantly sick and feeling tired but I keep putting it down to the stress of everyone here.I've had the stares and classic sneers from some of the female workers who I don't even know and didn't know who worked here.Judgemental comments over the last two weeks have gotten worse and I've just about had enough of it."Have you all got a problem with me

Chapter 14: I'm Sorry

Antonio An hour earlier:"It's been weeks Ant. Are you not going to go home?" Max asks as he pours himself another drink."Yeah," I mutter and as I go to stand up, my phone rings in my pocket.Magda."Why is Magda ringing?" I ask anyone in general. "Yeah?" I say into the phone. Magda is like a grandmother to everyone. Loves to fuss around and make sure we have all eaten but sometimes she can be one scary woman."Oh bloody nora child.""Who's Nora Magda?""It's an English saying apparently. We have a slight problem and when I say slight problem I mean your wife just took the car""What do you mean my wife took the car?"A pause on the other end of the line makes my patience snap completely. "Woman...What the fuck has my wife taken the car for?" I snap into the phone but her snapping makes me quiet and feel like a shit husband."Don't you Woman me Tu idiota. Maybe if you were here defending your woman when she has done nothing but get verbal abuse from Megan and her friends and snide

Chapter 15: Granny Panties

Daisy"Yes, princess?" He whispers in my ear as I pull back and look into his eyes.Will he ever really mean his confession?Will I be the woman he comes home to every night or is this just some obligation towards his child?Instead of voicing those feelings and concerns to him, I regard them and tell him the one thing that will annoy me so much but I know we can't do this here."We can't do this here" I try to explain before he even gets his hand near me.Over the last week, if I remember correctly, I have showered and changed into comfy underwear, sweats or leggings, and long baggy tops and I have cried over stupid things, listened to sad songs and eaten my way through packets of twirlers.My life rocks and my hormones suck.God damn it!"And why not?""Probably because this is my best friend's spare bedroom and-"I pause as I think about how to word what it is that I'm trying to say without sounding like an awkward teenager about to have her first kiss."And?" Antonio prompts."I'm

Chapter 16: Shot

AntonioIt's been a week since I brought my wife home. Since I fucked up, I vowed to make it right and we've been sorting through some things to do with the women that come here, she told me how lonely it was and how painful it is to be sick all the time, its been a week watching her be sick even after her favourite foods.A week since I made it very clear to every staff member and anyone working for me that if they disrespect my wife again or make her feel unwelcome then I shoot them on the spot.It's also a week since I've had men looking into Jerry's movements, keeping tabs on his behaviour and also waiting to strike and today seems like a good fucking day for it. It's almost 7 in the evening and I'm ready to just blow my top off with all the bullshit going on."Daze," I say as I walk through our bedroom door, only to find her not there doing her reading."I'll be out in a moment" she says from the bathroom and I know she's sick again. Every day, for most of the day she is consta

Chapter 17: Princess

Daisy "How far along are you?" Sophia asks me as we sit in mine and Antonio's room. My brain is focused on other things at the moment so her question goes over my head. It's been 2 hours since he left and every time he goes out that door there is still that terrifyingly loud voice in my head that tells me to ring him. I feel an urge to hear his voice, to make sure that he will be coming home and that every worry I have is for nothing. That's all in my head. Tonight is no different but my gut is screaming at me to text him. Even if it's to just make sure everything's okay and to see when he's coming home but I stop myself when I feel Sophia's hand on mine. "Sorry? What did you ask?" I ask again because I was in my own world and could only pick up little bits of what she was saying beforehand. "I asked if you were okay and how far along you are." "Oh right, I'm not sure, we haven't been to the doctor yet but we're heading there tomorrow I think and I'm okay I'm just nervous. I alw

Chapter 18: You really want to know?

Daisy5 days he's been here.Every night I lay awake. I haven't slept properly for days and my body is paying the price for it.I lay here listening to the monitors.I lay here worried they would just stop.I lay here wondering if my husband would die on me because something went wrong and I'd be asleep.My internal arguments stop me from sleeping. Everything he says or everything he does has consequences. Being the boss has consequences and him being out in public tonight or last night should I say with it being 3:07 am the next morning, had consequences that he's paying the price for.He has always been honest. He's told me that he could get hurt at any given moment, outside or even inside our home but my Naive mind doesn't want to believe that but now look at me.Listening to his heartbeat, his fingers twitch now and then or the nonsense he keeps mumbling in his sleep makes me feel useless because I can't do anything other than sit here and wait.Starting to get cramps in my legs

Chapter 19: Sickness and in health

Antonio "I do.""We can save it for tomorrow Princess. You're not going home you're going to get some sleep next to me and tomorrow we will both go home.""Imagine it as a bedtime story" she chuckles while crawling under the duvet and cuddling closer to me. This is the first time she's gotten under here with me and I don't blame her.Listening to her finally explode with frustration and anger made me realise I'd been snapping at the very wrong person and in that moment I felt guilty.She's been here with me for the last 5 going on 6 days, not sleeping much, not eating a great deal and not looking after herself because I've been in here."Alright but tomorrow you're going to have a proper meal, we are also visiting the doctor to see how far along we are and then you're going to have a long bath and I will do my job and look after you and our baby"She nods her head and I can tell she's getting tired so I go into what the Koreans like to play."They call it 'Night Has Come' and it's a

Chapter 20: Sanity

DaisyThis is a first for me.I've never celebrated Christmas before, I've never had a family to buy for, I've never had a Christmas tree or my very own stocking.Being in my own world and thinking back to the last time I ever felt Christmas spirit, my mind can't function on what is going on, it doesn't want to see the beauty in everything around me but when I feel a pair of strong arms wrap around me from behind I begin to feel that ease that usually happens when I feel or sense Antonio's presence. I'm usually a very happy person, I don't allow things to get me down and I certainly don't want to ruin their Christmas spirit with my Grinch Titus if that's even a word."What are you thinking about princess?""Not much. I didn't expect you to be home" I say still looking at the decorated living room."We managed to capture one Korean to extract information from and Jerry as well""Jerry? Where was he?" I ask Antonio as I feel his gloved hands roam my body.For the last few weeks, my fat
