“I love you Abigail” he muttered as his head fell on my chest.

I felt my chest heave as his face plopped sideways.

“Damien” I called out to him, my voice a bit hoarse from doing a lot all day as he laid on my chest, his breath steady on my neck as he slept peacefully.

After a while, I pulled myself away from him, just enough for me to slip out of his reach.

‘I’m sure it’s the drug still in the system’ I thought to myself as I laid on the couch and closed my eyes.

The next morning, I felt a shadow looming over me, I had overslept once again.

“Frieda..your shadow is blocking the light” I muttered, half asleep.

“It’s not Frieda” his deep voice echoed.

“Damien” I said, forcing my eyelids apart to see his arms folded as he looked at me.

“Why are you so shocked?” He asked.

“I thought you’d be off to work already” I stated, standing from the couch.

“Why am I here?” He asked again.

It was no suprise that he didn’t remember anything from last night.

“You don’t remember what happened?” I asked.

    “So..we’re pregnant” Damien repeated, I swallowed hard. Roseline squealed at the top of her lungs, Sara, their mother felt too joyous to eat as they both rushed towards her for an embrace.I sat there, in silence, it couldn’t be shocking, yet, I felt my heart sink, my body had become numb as I watched them celebrate.“We need to throw a big party!” Roseline said.“Yes..the biggest” Sara agreed as they both had their time, hugging her while Damien smiled at her, planting a kiss on her forehead.I took my food into a tray, hoping they wouldn’t notice me disappear into my abode.I laid in my room, eating my meal as I held up my book, reading in silence. Hoping for a peaceful night.Then I started hearing more squealing“There are more people in the house now?” I muttered, rolling my eyes.They seemed to have invited people, she wasn’t even married to him and they were celebrating the day as though they were a married couple.I looked at my book, ‘That should have been me’ I thought, pla

    “I didn’t know you had such allergies” she said, trying to defend herself.I almost scoffed looking at her, her faked expression of concern and hurt.“Just let me be” I heard from downstairs. Feeling unbothered, I walked up the stairs, closed the door behind me and slipped out of the dress I had worn yesterday, I felt worn out, I had been caring for him all night without sleep, I needed to unwind and have a good rest.“Leave me be!” He ordered, the moment he entered the room, locking the door behind him.‘Shoot, I’m still bare’ I thought to myself as I took on my robe, taking it over my body.Fortunately, he didn’t even notice me, he went straight to the bed, plopping his body for the soft, warm feeling the king sized bed had to give.I tiptoed to the bathroom, wishing and hoping to be invisible.“Abigail” he called out in a calm, seductive tone. He had just come out of the hospital, how could he sound so good?I propped my brain back to reality.“Forget I was ever here, I just need

    “Damien can’t just get a fever…except..she give him something he’s allergic to” I muttered.****I suddenly recalled our days together before we got married, it was a cold night, Damien had gone drinking with people he considered his friends, he came back to my apartment instead of going straight home.“Babe, are you okay?” I asked him as he staggered into my arms.“Woah” I said, trying to hold up his weight, putting my hand behind his waist, supporting him.“What happened?” I asked, the moment we had gotten inside.He had too much to drink, placing him on the couch, I looked at his condition, he was pale.“Why did you drink so much?” I asked, going to the kitchen as I brought up some water.I proceeded to place my hand on his forehead “He’s running a fever” I muttered.“Why? Why’s he sick?” I muttered, taking up a towel and putting it in the cold water, placing it back on his head.I repeated the process for a while but the results were the same, a burning fever, an agonizing groan o

    After spending some time at the park with Aaron, it was finally time to go home.“We’ll catch up more soon” I said as I embraced him.“Yeah, we will” he answered with a smile as he let go of me.‘Maybe Damien will be home by now’ I thought to myself as I walked past the hefty men that stood guard at the gate.“Where could she have gone?” Damien asked, pacing back and forth.I walked through the front door, going unnoticed as he threw a tantrum about finding his mistress, just as I walked past him, Frieda stopped me in my tracks.“What is it?” I whispered, noticing the tense air.“Master Damien’s been looking for you” she said. I raised a brow, did she know what she had just said?“Why would he look for me?” I asked, almost confused.“I don’t know..he’s been asking for you all day, since he got back” she answered.“What of Jenna, any news?” I asked once more.“No..nothing…just go to him first, he seems perplexed” she added.“Damien..what’s going on?” I asked.Judging from his expressio

    “I’m so sorry I overslept” I apologized, taking off the drapes as I climbed brown from the bed.“It’s not over sleeping..you’ve been working hard and today we all wanted to give you a break” Frieda said calmly, walking in front of me.I smiled back at her, and went straight to the kitchen to see what had been made.“Just sit at the dining instead..” she offered, instead of having me go there.After breakfast I noticed that I sat alone in the huge dining room, I wiped my mouth and felt satisfied.“While Damien’s out looking for his lover, I can do what I want” I muttered as I helped wash the plates I had used.There’s was nothing much to do around the house, and that meant that I could stroll out of the house.‘I should probably call that mysterious man’ I thought to myself as I got dressed to leave.“Hello..” I said on the phone, holding it with one hand as I helped myself with my dress with the other.“Abigail Conner, you called quite earlier than I thought you would” he said.“Who a
