GIVING HER HUSBAND A SECOND CHANCE

“Boss?”

He came closer with a cigarette in his mouth.

I adjusted myself to sit up properly.

He used his right hand to take the cigarette out and tossed it on the floor, smashing it with his shoes.

"Did you bring me here?"

"Why did you bring me here, what do you want?!" I kept asking with anger mixed with fear.

" I have heard a lot about him and I don't wish to be a victim"

"He doesn't think twice before killing people, and authorities can't do anything to him, how did I fall into his trap?"

"Mia can't be that important to him, right?, who knew a man feared by many is so eager to pick up other people's past".

He used his hand to signal the man in suit and he handed him a gun.

Another fear set in and I tried to struggle myself out of the chair but to no avail.

He came closer to me.

"Relax" he used the tip of the gun to rub my face and forcefully pointed the gun under my jaw, raising my face.

"What do you want?" My voice shaky.

"Untie him" the man in suit untied my hands and then my legs but I still couldn't move.

A chair was brought for him and he sat down in front of me

He cocked his gun and shot my first leg in one go.

"Ahhhh" I fell on the floor in pain.

"For making Mia cry"

He shot my second leg.

"For trying to hold her back"

"Why are you doing this, my wife doesn't even know you"

He shot my left hand.

"This is the last time I will hear you call her your wife" the anger in his face was very visible even in the dim light.

He came closer to me and bent to my level, trailing the gun from my legs up to my dick.

"I am not shooting your third leg for giving me a chance."

I got confused."

"I knew I was right".

"Are you into Mia?!, are you going to shamelessly be a home wrecker?!". He ignored me and stood up.

"So this is why you have been nice to us, you have been shamelessly into a married woman" something hit me.

"Did you set me up" but he only smiled which pissed me off the more.

"I know you set me up, you fucking bastard, I will tell Mia about this, don't think she will ever want you, you evil bastard" my words kept making his anger grow and he shot my right hand instantly which doubled the pain I was already feeling.

I fell flat on the floor.

"Ahhh" tears roll out of my eyes as the pain was getting unbearable.

"Kiss your life goodbye if this should reach Mia's ear and don't hesitate to sign the divorce papers" anger was evident in his voice.

He signaled the man in suit and few other men came in while he left the room.

My eyes started getting blurry and slowly it went blank.

ZAMANI

The urge to kill that bastard kept growing but I had to leave the room not to do something I will regret.

"I don't want Mia hating me."

The thought of Mia waiting in my house lifted my mood and a smile formed on my face.

I have waited ten years for this.

I called one of my boys.

"Scott, to the white house"

"Boss?" But I just gave him a side eye.

"Yes boss".

He knew I never go to the white house but I now have a reason.

"I have been in love with Mia for almost ten years but I never got the chance to chase her.

" She was only seventeen, and I loved her in secret till she grows up but this bastard showed up"

"I kept watching her in secret expecting them to break up but he ended up marrying my woman, stupid bastard" the thought of it ruined my mood.

"Boss, the car is ready"

We got into the car straight to the white house.

"This is my chance to get close to Mia, I am making sure she doesn't lack anything and she will grow to love me”.

“Do you have the divorce paper from the attorney?”

“Yes boss” he handed it over to me and I smiled again.

Scott looked at me with a questioning face and I adjusted my face again.

I have always had a serious face but they might be getting a lot of a happy face now as long as Mia is with me.

I thought of Nathan.

“Make sure you pay all his hospital bills and have in leave the company together with everything from the company including the house”

“I have no reason to help him anymore, not like he deserves to work as a manager”.

Scott handed me a cigarette.

I signaled him to take it back

“What if Mia hates the smell of cigarettes?” He looked at me like I had gone crazy but maybe I have.

***

We got to the White House and I hurried back inside to Mia’s room which was opposite mine.

I thought she was probably sleeping but she was having a conversation with someone over the phone.

:It just kind of happened Stacy, I was drunk!

I couldn’t hear what the person in the other end was saying.

:I just think we are both equal now, he cheated and I cheated too, and he really loves me to apologize, don’t you think?

…

:I never said I was going to get back to him now, probably when we are both calm.

The paper I was holding slipped from my hand to the floor.

“Go back to him?”
