Bruna

I knew we took the backdoor, the moment we made our way inside. Everyone was sitting with their backs to the door. A big white screen was mounted at the front and a brown podium next to it.

It was a big conference room with people packed in the front.

"You should come to the front." I stepped right behind him when he spoke.

I glanced around the room. There were a lot of eyes and I didn't want to be put in that kind of position. I wanted to be in a place where I could hear and see everything.

"I will sit on this side." I pointed to my left where I found his mother. She waved at me with a smile on her face. I went to sit with her.

He didn't say a thing and made his way to the front. I didn't know where Arlo sat as I made my way to the empty seat next to his mother.

In front of me was a small table. A 0.5 liters of water and a wine glass on it.

"I trust him to do it." His mother whispered in a low tune. I didn't quite understand that, given that, Caden seemed to be someone with

  • Married To The Enemy    Always Bruna

    Caden.I shouldn't have messed up like that. I left the house with everything in mind to say. Still, I could let go of it when I stood behind that podium. That was something I have been trying to let go, but I couldn't. It kept reoccurring. I stared blankly at the laptop in front of me as my mother's words echoed in my mind.I wasn't about to let what had been in my family for the longest time now be taken away and by a man I didn't know. No one has dared stood up against my family requesting a change because they know it bonged to my family.They knew it couldn't happened and then there was Kendrick Taureb who had suddenly showed up. What had he done for the people to accept to his request?I watched his campaign pictures. He was doing enough to get the votes from the public, going to all the remote places to get all the attention. Majority of the country peoples were in this areas. Most of them will readily agree to him if kept providing them with what he was giving them.I

  • Married To The Enemy    The outing

    Bruna.Luna has been texting me to see her. There wasn't a chance for me to do that, given what Caden had told me. I couldn't leave the house, unless I had at least three guards trailing behind me. I wanted to be alone when I go to see her. Whatever we were doing had to remain between us. I was glad that she had chosen to help me in the first place. I had to keep my own part of the deal if not everything I was working for would crumble down. I sent her a message pleading to understand that I wouldn't be able to see her this week.I waited for her reply about what she had to say on tipping toes.If she insisted that I had to see her, then it meant that I would have to escape from the house to go see her which wasn't the best idea. Hopefully she understood me."This weekend shouldn't go by without you seeing me." My heart stayed at ease at her response. Thank goodness she understood. I got from bed with the phone pressed against my chest and walked towards the door when I heard a knock

  • Married To The Enemy    The hospital

    Bruna.Arlo had been waiting in the car for almost an hour now. I hope he understood me. Women always add extra minutes to the appointed time. And coming to an antenatal wasn't something I will do in a minute. There was a long queue of pregnant women in front of me when I came in.And because I didn't have all the time to stand and wait I had to signal Benita out. She knew just what to do. Caden's mother had wanted to come with me for my first Atenetal, but I told her it wasn't a big deal. I could handle it myself. She asked Arlo, the top security at the presidency, to drive with me.Nobody knew me as Caden Woodman's wife yet. So there wasn't much of a risk to it, although I had my hair covered up and a face mask on. Protection was still necessary. I mean, this was the hospital and not my house.I waited patiently at a desk behind the large hall that was receiving pregnant women. I stretched my neck forward, but I couldn't see past the women in front of me.What was taking her so

    CadenI didn't have it in me to sit for dinner today. I had a lot of shit I needed to figure out.After making the call, I made my way inside. I stopped at the door when I saw my mother gently rubbing her hands up and down Bruna’s back. Her other free hand was pushing a glass of water into her hands, urging her to drink.Without so much as a thought, I shoved my phone into my back pocket and made my way to them."What happened?" I demanded. My hand moved to the table and shifted the plate of food that was in front of her. I frown at the dish of vegetables. That was too much food. Though I understood that pregnant women needed to eat a lot, but that was a lot given that she wasn't even a month gone yet. My hand moved to her back as I gently rubbed it, just like my mother was doing. She took off her hand and retracted the half-full glass of water.She hadn't even drunk much of it. "She choked on that corn." My mother pointed at the half cob in the dish of seafood like some unwanted ite

  • Married To The Enemy    Antenatal

    I pulled over in front of the two-storey building. I stepped out of the car and moved to the passenger seat. I took out the two heavy bags of groceries I had bought. I closed the door with my feet, since my hands were occupied.I stopped short at the sight of the entrance. Was he at home or still in school? Pain ripped through my heart at the thought of going back home – a home that wasn't mine. A home that I will be sent out from if my secret came out in the public.Still, I had promised July that I would visit today and I liked keeping my promises. One of which was to finish Caden Woodman and his family.I shook the thought out of my head and made my way forward. I nodded at a few neighbors in front of their doors.It wasn't a classic hostel, but it was a decent place to live. I went to the stairs, taking two at a time. My eyes glanced at the wall. Some of the paint was already flaking off. It needed painting, but some landlords would tell you they didn't have money, making me wo
