12. HIRED
“Miss Madroi?”
My head peaked up to the door where a man stood, holding it open.
“Yes.” I stood, my ass burning from all the hours I had spent on that chair.
“Can you please follow me.”
“Great.”
I was going crazy in that boardroom alone. I put my gadgets in my bag, slinging it over my shoulder.
Honestly I had done a lot of work in the two hours sitting there but the hunger would soon knock me down.
We walked into the hall, no one else there.
If I had my husband’s number I would have blasted his phone a long time ago.

HIS SECRET WIFE 13. FIRST DAY
Husband never came home and I passed out just after eating and taking a shower.The only thing I would hate about work was dressing up. At some point they would find out who I really was and I could imagine the horror. I didn’t want to add to it by looking terrible.I spent an hour looking for clothes. If my stomach wasn’t sticking out, my folds were. I ended pulling up another pair of leggings with a large shirt and sneakers. I put on a pair of glasses to go with the geek look.With that I made breakfast and went out, mind you I probably had to walk to work again. It had been fun the previous night, not knowing what could come at me at some point.As the door swung open I was met with a man just standing there besides Jacobs.
HIS SECRET WIFE 14. WONDERS OF WORKING
The work I had would give a bull an overload. I had spent two full days buying online with no care for the time nor money. A week later I had a five metre standing desk. Walking around it took some energy. On it was a custom fifty seven inch ultrawide monitor. My office iPad was before me, my keyboard down. The extra adjoined space was turned to a planning and meeting room. It had a smart table that blew even my mind. You could write and draw on it, not just one person but multiple people could draw a design together on the table! The chairs were the best since many hours would be spent in the office and the walls were covered by screens which were responsive to touch meaning we could write, draw, basically do anything we can do on the iPads. I had turned my office into a tech’s heaven. The IT guys couldn’t stop marveling, Naomi even screamed and jumped around as we set up everything. A coach sat opposite my office desk, a cute bookshelf next to it and a few plants here and th

I didn’t even want to hear the word floating through the grapevines.What had I been thinking?Why had I even called for him? Why?Every hour of the night I burned in shame.I kept playing the scene over and over again and hell, it didn’t get better which was why I locked myself in my office.It was why I never went to the house even though I had planned to.My mind was nowhere but that reception hall. It was one of my worst moments ever.I didn’t even dare sleep, just working away with the hope that since it was Friday I could go home for the day. Surely my husband wouldn&rsq
HIS SECRET WIFE 16. HIS WRATH
“It’s fifteen minutes to nine!”It was the only greeting I would get. Sweat beads rolled down my forehead from running and panicking.I threw my bags everywhere, throwing my shoes off and pulling clothing as I went.I shut the bathroom door.My hands were shaking as I moved as fast as I could.It felt as if I had eight hands as I took the shortest shower I ever would in my whole life.I had planned to soak and shave but who was I kidding. I sneaked in a two minutes shave of my legs and armpits.“ Come on woman!”I jumped out, if not in my di
HIS SECRET WIFE 17. SCANDALOUS PART I
My husband and I were making memories, just not the ones you would think.I was as straight as a board.Walking, well, it was just the strut of the legs like a Barbie doll forced to catwalk.The shoes which I had bought at the very same shop were never meant to be worn in my belief.So much pain at the point I couldn’t even pinpoint where the poison was. My husband had marched away three minutes ago to the car. I had slowly walked after him thinking I would die.I could not even bend my neck. At that point I was moving by God’s grace.Each breath taken brought immense pain. The push and fall of my chest stirred something in my stomach which was surely cur

My whole centre burned intensely.“Uhm…” I tried to think of an answer but all my brain could do was concentrate on the pain. It hit like a wrecking ball.I shook my head trying to clear my head with no luck.Eyes stared still, waiting.“Are you okay sweety?”All I could do was nod my head and force a smile.My posture bent a little, thinking that would ease the pain but nope.Just a few more hours, I told myself. The conversation continued without me then I felt something else snap and shit I couldn’t take it anymore.I turned so fas
HIS SECRET WIFE 19. MIRANDA
Silence. I was not sure if it was awkward. Footfalls echoed in our little room, the curtain hiding us away from the rest of the floor. My husband pushed up, his arms on his chest before they lowered and he began pacing again. Never mind that I had three plastic hard wires just hanging from my belly. Never mind the fact that I was only in my underwear, my breast wrapped in a bandeau top they had made for me from bandages. Beside that I was peachy, real peachy. The curtain flew open. “Miss Madroi, sorry for the delay, your doctor is a few minutes away. I will be the assisting nurse.” The woman said, wearing pink scrubs. She wrote on my chart then walked out to push in what I would was an ultrasound and set it up. I was just happy that after thirty minutes of being there, they were finally going to pull out the freaking wires and I could go die in my bed. Surely I had lost interest in speaking, needing to be done for the night. Most calls went unanswered by my husband and th
HIS SECRET WIFE 20. WHAT COULD BE
It was security I never realized I craved. The curve of my fingers on his shirt. His warmth sifted through the hospital sweats I had been gifted. It was his scent flowing through my nostrils and somehow I could feel it’s effect down to my toes. I picked it apart ingredient by ingredient as if I were suddenly an expert on scents. It was the feel of his muscles just fabrics away. It was always romantic when a guy carried a woman in the movies and I had always scoffed because I was convinced no man would carry me. Storm held me to him even in the car. I lay on him fighting the clouds of fatigue with exhaustion wilting me away. It was just after midnight, the day finally gone with a new one upon us. The date would be marked in my journal because of how eventful it was. I held on as if he was my life line. I won’t lie, for me it was magical breathing his scent in, held like a baby by my husband. “You want to get food?” Food was the very reason we were in the predicament we wer
