It's been two days and I found myself cooped up in the room without leaving there. I just wanted some alone time to think, and I've been asking questions.
Yes, including shouting it out so that whatever spirit brought me to this place will give me some kind of explanation as to why I am here.But as I said, I've had some alone time and that didn't change the fact that there was no one to answer all the thousands of questions I have brought forward.I heard a sharp knock on the door and inhaled deeply before standing up to get it. I wasn't expecting the person standing at the door.“Oh, my baby girl” the mother of the girl grinned, and then tears are rushing down her eyes as she embraced me tightly.I'm still put in an awkward position, as I don't even know whether I should hug her back or not. She didn't mind and just kept holding me tight.“This is the reason I wanted you to be with us, but it happened this way." she left me, and then her hands still on me, she gave me a thorough examination.She turned me around and checked every aspect of me like she thought something was missing and wanted to make sure I was still in one piece.“I hope you have been taking your medications?” She said, and I nodded “That is all I wanted to confirm, I know you will be alright” She hugged me again briefly and then let go.As I said before, everything is just blurry from here, and I need some explanation, and now I've found her, I think she will do the explanation for me.“Ma I have some questions,” I asked slowly to her.“Ma??” She laughed, “Oh dear you are funny. Now I know you do, but I have some catching up to do and just thought of seeing you briefly, once everything clears off, I'm sure we will see each" She beamed at me, and before I can think of protesting, she is already finding her way out of the door.I sighed, walking back to the bed, why am I here what the fuck am I doing with my life, here who is this??These thousands of questions made me stand up as if I had had enough already. Dressing up quickly, I left the room and went straight to the living.“Mrs. Anderson” The nanny of the kids greeted, standing up from her seat immediately.She looked scared just by seeing my face as she was sitting on the couch. Her head is bent low, and her hands are jammed together.“Good morning to you” She raised her head slowly and her eyeballs enlarged like I had said something that shouldn't be said. I shook my head and remembered I have a reason I was out there.“Can you get me a cellphone? Maybe a computer” I asked her tenderly.“Of course Mrs. Anderson,” She asked sharply and was already turning away as she did so.I watched her as she left for the other room, and then she is walking faster to find her way here.“The computer in the study room is working and the Wi-Fi password is written on the screen,” she said.“Thank you very much” I smiled at her, and then I'm walking to the study room I saw her coming out.When I turned back to look at her, she was staring right back at me like she had seen a ghost. What is that expression on her face??Without mind, I walked to the study room, and I looked at all the stuff and the books, and seeing them brought livid happiness to my heart, I love books.I settled down to the computer and after inputting the Wi-Fi password my hand itched at what to type.The first search came to my mind and I typed rapidly on it and now information is displaying on the computer for me to see.So much information on Damien Anderson and his family, his wife, and everyone closely related to him.He was one of the Country's most eligible bachelors for a long time until four years ago, he got married unexpectedly to Katherine Jones.It was stated that their marriage was full of love and made everyone wish they were in her shoes and some are alleging it was a marriage of convenience.Staring at the computer now I don't even know what to say, I scoff, definitely not a marriage of love if he looked at his wife that way.Also stated here that he is a billionaire who has wealth from investing in major shares of other companies after he founded his tech.Something brushes past my eyes and I click on the link, the accident of Katherine Anderson. It felt like my skin pickled at the sight of it and when I clicked the video, I'm watching as she is packed up in batches and the car was brutally destroyed.It was a miracle she survived, some comments had said.There was something about the way she survived, there was something I needed to know, which made it possible for me to be here. This question pricked my mind so much as I clicked out of the system.Now that I'm here I must have to find out the answer, but I cannot find that answer cooped up in that room without taking a step first.I turned off the system and stood up looking into the sky.“Whatever made you bring me here, I'm sure I will find that answer and the reason too”Somehow inside of me, that was all I needed, and now I've found a breather.With a smile on my face, I left the room and walked straight to the living room. Seeing me once again, she stood up from the floor where she is now seated.Before she could greet me, I raised my hand to stop her.“I need your help,” I said to her with a smile“My… My help??” She stuttered through her words.“Yes, your help. Can you please help me??” I asked her and after taking a look at me, she nodded.“Good, now take me to the kitchen”A surprise or rather shock flickered through her eyes, but she didn't oppose as she led me to the kitchen.From today, I will start living as Katherine Anderson.“Wow Mrs. Anderson, this is a lot” The nanny whom I've known to be Sarah seemed perplexed and shocked at how the food I had prepared came out.Even the chef who stood at a corner is watching me intently as he wouldn't just agree that I've made that food.“When I said you should trust me, what were you expecting??” I gave her a dotting smile and hers grew.The chef cleared his throat before the girl's smile died, and she is back in her mean stand.One thing I've detected through the time the three of us have stood in this kitchen preparing this meal is that Katherine was never the laughing one with the staff, and it came as a surprise when I accomplish just that.“Now all you have to do for me is take the food to the dining while I clean off this mess,” I said to the both of them.“No no Mrs. Anderson, I cannot let you do that. It's already a big sin enough that I let you cook and now clean? That's my work” The chef protested.“Of course I know it's your work but let me do it, at least
DAMIENNo one had noticed when I walked into the dining area, they all seemed too enchanted by whatever Katherine was saying to Thompson. It made me angrier that she thinks she can just come and speak to that boy and give him hope of being a good mother to him.“Dad” little Bluey climbed down her chair thanks to her nanny and ran to where I'm standing.No matter how angry I am, seeing my kids always brings this bright smile to my face.I carried her up, throwing her in the air as she always loved.Her little giggles are everything, and it certainly melts my heart.“Daddy's big girl” she giggled more as I pressed kisses to her cheeks before bringing her back to her seat.No need to turn and notice that Katherine is sitting directly beneath the dining where I always sat.I balanced on my seat and then looked at her, what exactly is her deal? Did she have a concussion ?“I was telling mummy how I scored a goal today daddy,” Thompson always said as happy as a bright moon when he speaks a
KATHERINE From a distance, I watch as the kids are loaded into the car as they drive off to school. I wasn't able to come out early to help as I had wanted after that very confrontation with their daddy.Which again makes me question what he had said, she wanted to give up on the children. This and other questions are on my head as I help out in the kitchen making sure they have lunch and dinner ready when they come back from school.I don't know when I will be here, and I just want to help from a distance.I heard a ruffling sound and headed straight to the living room where I heard echoes of voices.“I said take this stuff, are you deaf??” The voice shouted, followed by a loud shout.“What is happening here??” I am presented with a scene of the nanny with her knees on the floor as a lady and a woman who seemed to be the younger version of the lady are stepping over her.“Ah, I thought I heard you died,” the lady said with a smile on her face.I look at her confused by what she j
After waking up and finding out I wasn't Daisy married to Kenny instead I'm Katherine who is married to a freaking billionaire, I decided to mind my business and just lie low until whatever brought me here takes me back.So far, this wasn't the life I had expected from a Billionaire's Wife, but it seems that is it for now, though. Now I'm finding out that everywhere Katherine went, she had an enemy to herself, which brings me to this point.I don't have to sit down and settle for whatever is coming, I'm going to do my best and not lie low as I had planned.This brings me to exactly what I'm doing right now. This is the seventh luggage I have emptied in this room as I try to find answers.The only answers the chef and nanny gave to me was the fact that I don't speak to everyone and I freaking mind my business all the time, barely a week after giving birth to Star, the thirteen-month-old baby that I left him and traveled to explore the world.It all seems strange, why would a mother w
“Now that the kids are out, what should we do??” Sitting and relaxing on the couch, Megan said to me.She had a hopeful glance on her face as she watched me.I ran my hands together agitating before settling down on the couch opposite hersI don't know what their lives were like. Not only that, but I have no idea what this person might like or not, so I am perplexed about that part of her questions.“Oh my gee” she laughed out loud while pointing to my face “You should see your face right now” she laughed again, throwing her head to the back “You look shit scared like I have said something frightening" She shook her head“Oh…" I blinked twice hoping the face had made it away from me. Truly I'm shit scared since I don't even know what to answer.She laughed again before standing up and coming to sit beside me"It Is Okay" she touched my shoulder tenderly “I know exactly what we should do, it's what you love doing most. So with that, you will be able to recall a few”Holding my hand sti
DAMIENWithout wanting to, my eyes are back to the Givenchy watch on my wrist as I check the time again, I don't understand why I'm doing thatFinally, the nanny stood up from the chair as she took the kids away since they were done with their food.“Daddy, will you come and read bedtime stories to me??” Thompson said to me with his ever-beaming eyes that beg you for something, and you cannot but accept it.“Of course sweetheart” I placed a kiss on his forehead as he smiled more and stepped towards his nanny Sarah and then stopped “Will mommy be telling me the story with you, Daddy?” The guilelessness in his eyes, the hope that glares at me so brightly slammed a door right through my chest.This is the same reason I've wanted her distance from them, she has no single mother figure inside of her and the pretense is killing me so much especially knowing the kids are easily attached“We will talk about that later, now go ahead with your nanny." I shushed him off, and without appealing
Minutes later, we still sat down there staring at each other, I grabbed the duvet holding it tightly to my chest as I stared back at him“What are you doing on my bed??” I eyed him accusingly while not taking my eyes away from him.He scoffed and then sat upright, not minding that his chest was bare as he dragged a shirt over his body. I couldn't look away“Sweetheart if you look very well you will know who came to whose room,” he remarked, and then with a single move he stood up from the bedWait, my eyes weigh the room and yes, this place is fucking masculine with all the dark shades of green that are happening, it isn't the place I have been sleeping“What am I doing here, then??” I stood up from the bed and looked at myself, realizing that I am still glammed up in what I wore yesterday.“You should ask yourself that question, particularly when you stink of alcohol so badly” he gave me a mean lookI looked down at myself and without showing too much inhaled and yes, I fucking smell
DAMIENKatherine doesn't show the littlest emotions, she is one of the people that I know that doesn't hide the fact that everything is to her detest, and that emotion is a weakling to a personSo imagine how surprised I was standing not far away from her as she hugs Bluey.When she looks up and our eyes meet, I can see the sincerity in her eyes, the way the emotions she is enacting to her little girl are more than sincere and that threw me off the road“I love you, Mommy,” Bluey said to her and then pulled out from her body before she gave her a deep kiss on the cheeks, and then she is running back to her roomMy eyes follow my daughter, the delight that fills her, the way she and her siblings have been yearning for their mother's attention, and then finally she has it, it means a lot to her“I was just leaving your room” In all my thinking and non-attentiveness, I can see that she has moved away from the spot and is now standing close to meOf course, she still reeks of the alcoho
