Josiah's Pov
Got the number of a well spoken of dog trainer from the pet store, after giving him a call, he showed up a few hours later to lecture Katie and Jane on what to do in terms of grooming, feeding and just general well being of it. I wanted no part of it, so I remained upstairs.I was on my laptop when I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. The footsteps stopped but I heard no door open or close. I got up, placing my ears closer to my door, listened for anything my ears could pick, and like I knew, I heard heavy breathing. .Katie. I wondered whether to let her be, before I could think, my hands took matters into its own hands, swinging the door open to reveal her fist up, ready to knock.We stood there, her fist dropped, unmoving, making eye contact,"Would you want to come in or you'd just stand outside?", she looked down, not saying a word,I moved to the side, giving her way to come in, shutting the door lightly. I walked backKatie's Pov The sun from a small opening in the drapes came onto my face, it made me open my eyes, slowly scratching them as I turned to the other side, trying to continue with my sleep. After trying a couple of times, it was obvious I wouldn't go back to sleep. I sat up, and realised I was not in my room. I glanced over at my side and saw this man still sleeping soundly. It was a Sunday, he had every right. He had his back against the windows, making sense as to why he did not wake up. Getting up from the bed slowly, careful not to wake him up, I walked over to the drapes, pulling then together, shutting out the light that came in, so it does not wake him up. I walked back to bed, quietly climbing back in, getting under the covers. He moved, making me stop in my tracks, until I had made sure he was still fully asleep, before I adjusted myself properly. I laid on my back, thinking of what I was gonna do today. I picked up my phone, my eyes glanced
Katie's Pov I played with Ava all day long, with the hopes of forgetting that I was not okay with the fact that my husband was having an 'almost work' lunch with another woman. The daughter of another company. She was definitely more prettier, and more eloquent cos she must have gone to one of the best schools in the country, or even abroad. I ran my fingers through Ava's fur, she had been on my lap, watching TV with me. I was not actually fully concentrating on what was on, I had been taking glances at the parking lot through the window, hoping I would get a sight of his car driving in. That did not happen. I gave up on waiting, already filled with anger as to why he had been taking so long. Handing Ava to Jane, I walked up to my room to take an afternoon nap, hoping that he would be home by the time I wake up.My eyes opened two hours later, wondering how I was able to sleep that long, I was happy I did, I woke up, eraded of the anger I had gone to bed with
Katie's Pov I had gone to my room to have dinner, seeing that he was not going to come downstairs. Handing Ava over to Jane for her feeding and evening bathe, one of the kitchen staffs accompanied me to my room, holding my dinner for me. I had just sat down to begun eating when there was a knock on my door. Getting up from the bed, I walked to the door, getting a not so pleasant surprise when I swung open the door.A kitchen staff was at the door, and behind her was none other than my beloved husband, "You can leave", he looked down at her, she bowed in response before she left,"Did Jane deliver my instruction to you?", he looked squarely at me, not that it was going to make a difference in my answer, "She did", I made sure to sound as plain, you may say rude, as possible,"And?", he was expecting me to explain why I did not show up? Very funny,"And what?", playing dumb definitely got him pissed off, and I want
Josiah's Pov My alarm clock noisily rang beside me. I woke up, thinking of smashing it to the ground. Turning to my side, I nicely turned it off instead, rolling back to my side to fully wake up. That was when I realised that she was soundly asleep next to me, I almost smiled, it was soothing to know she had returned to the room. As stealth as possible, I got up, to prepare for the office. It was Monday. Walking into the washroom to wash up, I heard my phone ring this time. Walking back to the bed as fast as I could so she would not have to wake up, I turned off the alarm. There was a pop-up notification on the screen, looking at it, I realised the month had ended. It was her pay-day.I stood in the spot I was, starring at my phone. I almost forgot we were in a contract, and it had been a month already. A month out of the 24 months as estranged in the contract that we both signed. I walked into the bathroom to resume my shower, I had a long day ahea
Katie's Pov There was a knock on my door, distracting from me from the book I had been reading the whole morning,"Come in", I looked up from my book, the door ushered Jane in,"Apologies for the disruption ma'am", she smiled as she bowed,"It is fine Jane", I smiled back at her when she straightened up to look at me,"The master has instructed me to give you this", she handed me a brown envelope, "Oh yes. Thank you", trying to control my smile, I took it from her, "Anything else ma'am?", I was quiet a while, trying to there was something I needed,"That would be all Jane. Thank you", she bowed before walking out the door.I looked down at the brown envelope in my hands, not sure why I was hesitant about looking inside it, even though I already knew what the contents were. Ava walked up to my laps, distracting me for a moment, "Hey gurl", I picked her up. She was excited as always, giving me mul
Katie's Pov Jane walked up to me, distracting me from the show that was getting really interesting on TV,"Sorry to distract you mistress, but the master requests you meet him in his room right now", she spoke half of the time to me, and the other half to the TV, "Thank you Jane", she bowed before leaving hesitantly, she was also interested in what was on,I got up from the couch, making my way to through the stairs and finally arrived at his door. Taking a deep breathe, I took a moment to compose myself, before knocking on his door,"Come in", his voice resonated from inside, and I flung his door open, what I met caused my mouth to drop.He stood from across me, having nothing on but a towel tied around his waist. I could clearly see his big junk hanging just below his waist. I could feel myself getting wet by the thoughts of it, "Is there a problem?", his voice brought me back to the room, I quickly returned my eyes to m
Josiah's PovJane had helped Katie bring her bags downstairs, she was going to be gone a few days, but knowing how women loved to be extra, she had alot of things packed. Adre moved her things from the house into the trunk of the car. I was going to drop her off at the airport on my way to work, I still had a few instructions I needed her to assure me she understood. She was taking her time to say goodbye to all the staff. She made the decision to go along with Ava, after I insisted on booking first class tickets for her. That dog had too many accessories, and Katie insisted she would need to go with them all. When she was certain she had taken all the bags, and said her goodbyes, she joined me outside, placing Ava in her customised cage, she got into the car. After shutting her side of the door, I walked to the other side, getting in and shutting the door, signalling the driver to be on his way."You're sure you took all the necessary things for you
Hours later, the plane arrived our destination and we all got off. Another bell boy carrying my bags on a trolly when I had arrived. Walking outside the airport, I ordered an uber to my home. I could never forget the address. After getting my bags into the trunk of the car, Ava in the backseat, the driver took off. It was about a 30 minutes drive from the airport. The closer we got to the destination, the more excited and nervous I got. Not sure why I was nervous, but I was mostly excited. The driver pulled up into our street, and I could see our house, Ma standing outside, talking with a neighbour. "Just there", I said to the driver, pointing at the house as we got closer,When he arrived, he parked, turning off the ignition as Ma turned, trying to understand why a cab had packed beside the house. It was not until opened my door, stepping out, that was when she let out a loud scream, causing me to laugh heartily. She embraced me, hugging me so
