UNASKED DECISIONS

It was her assistant who informed Raina about the cancellation rather than her husband.

It was on a morning she was standing in the kitchen drinking tea and had scrolled through her schedule on her tablet when Lena showed up on the screen.

"Why wasn't I informed?" The moment Raina replied, Lena asked.

"Informed about what?" Already uneasy, Raina responded.

Tomorrow there is a charity luncheon, Lena said. It was deleted from your calendar. Security sent me a notice that you are

    UNASKED DECISIONSIt was her assistant who informed Raina about the cancellation rather than her husband.It was on a morning she was standing in the kitchen drinking tea and had scrolled through her schedule on her tablet when Lena showed up on the screen."Why wasn't I informed?" The moment Raina replied, Lena asked."Informed about what?" Already uneasy, Raina responded.Tomorrow there is a charity luncheon, Lena said. It was deleted from your calendar. Security sent me a notice that you are not attending anymore.Raina frowned. "That's impossible. I checked that myself, fellows.I affirmed that I look like myself, guys.”That is what I thought, said Lena. But it was the word of the executive office of Kingston.The tablet was gripped in the hand of Raina. "Whose signature?"There was a brief pause. "Aaron Kingston's."It was like the sudden deadening of the room.Raina interrupted Lena by saying, “I will call you back.”She remained there, a long time, gazing at nothing. T

    THE OFFERAaron did not have the second board meeting of the week in his calendar.That amounted to all that he had to know.He walked into the executive conference room in his normal,calm manner, although his instincts were already aroused. The air felt different. He might feel the same when the members of the board would not look at him directly when he entered the room, and when their conversation came to an end as soon as he sat down.This was not a discussion.It was a decision.The chairman cleared his throat. “Thanks, Aaron, I am glad you have come on such notice.”Aaron clasped his hands on the table. "I assume this is urgent.""It is," the chairman replied. The recent events have only increased the pace.Aaron narrowed his jaws a bit. Progress in relation to my wife.No one corrected him.This silence was a response enough.Another member of the board added that the volatility is on the rise. The public opinion is changing at a faster rate than expected.And the media story i

    EVELYN'S MOVERaina was not anticipating the invitation that quickly.This was received late in the morning and was neatly and politely delivered by an assistant and not by himself. Lunch. Private dining room. Kingston Tower. There was no explanation, but Raina already had the clue as to who it was.Evelyn Royce.Raina gazed at the screen some time before closing her phone. Her intuitive reaction was to deny it. She was fed up with courteous threats behind a smile. But there was another aspect of her, smaller and more refined, which told her that this interview was unavoidable.Evelyn would be better heard than guessed in those shadows had Evelyn wished to speak.On the top floor of the Kingston Tower was the private dining room, which was spotless and serene, and the floor-to-ceiling windows commanded the city view. Evelyn was already seated as Raina walked in, as usual calm and graceful, in soft neutral hues that indicated control more than extravagance.Evelyn stood up and smiled w

    MOTHER UNDER A MICROSCOPEAs soon as her phone could not be turned off, Raina realized something was wrong.She sat in the nursery, and she was rocking her baby, humming, and the morning sun was coming through the curtains. It was her most secure home, the one part of the world that she could not think of as a source of politics, power, and discrimination. Even this space now was intruded upon.Her phone buzzed again.She had dismissed it and concentrated on the baby breathing steadily, his little body resting on her bosom. The screen sprang up with the name of Lena.Raina answered immediately. "What's happening?"Lena didn't waste time. "Have you seen the news?"Raina's stomach tightened. "No. What news?"It was some time before Lena spoke, and, speaking cautiously,she said, They are discussing your parenting.Raina froze. "My what?"“Some newspapers showed pictures of you walking out of the pediatric clinic yesterday, Lena explained. They are asking, why have you gone alone? Why was

    PUBLIC SMILES, PRIVATE DISTANCEThe cameras were flashing even before Raina got out of the car.Hers was instantly shut in the hand of Aaron, shut in hard and sure, the hand which once gave her security. It now seemed practised, rather rehearsed. There was a buzzing crowd on the outside of the charity gala, and people were screaming Aaron, as well as photography cameras trying to get the best shot of the Kingston golden couple.Smile, said Aaron to himself.Raina smiled initially with her lips, which she had perfected over the years. She appeared gleaming and graceful to the world and totally comfortable with her billionaire husband. Nobody could tell how tight her shoulders were or how her heart was aching in her breast.You are beautiful tonight, mumbled Aaron, and he bent closer, and the flashes were flying.Thanks, she said in a calm, repressive voice.A reporter stepped forward. Mr and Mrs Kingston, they say you have had a low profile of late. Any reason for that?"Aaron answered

    A HUSBAND'S SILENCEAaron had different feelings as he came home that night to the house.Raina saw it the first thing she saw, before she saw him. The air was more stale, as though there was something there that had been put between the walls without being seen. When Aaron walked into the house, she was in the living room, faking the act of reading to their baby, who was sleeping upstairs. He waved to her with a cursory nod and a low, "You are still up.Yes, Raina responded, and stared at him. "I was waiting for you."He undid his tie and did not look at her. "It was a long day."She studied his face. There exists the familiar tranquillity, but underneath this tranquility there exists something--distance. Secrecy. He was pacing the room as a person training to behave normally, each movement being restrained."Did something happen at work?" she asked."No," he answered too quickly. "Just meetings."Raina lowered her book. You have been having many meetings lately.That, he said, is th
