My wife, my enemy! Goodbyes!
The next morning in the large mansion at White Avenue was quite a whirlwind.“Can’t you stay for a bit? Say two more weeks?” Avery sighed softly.Margaret and Adrian chuckled wryly,“I don’t want to go neither” Margaret replied.“But I have to…”“My fiancé needs me” she added, extending her arms so that Avery and Adrian would see her diamond ring.Avery rolled her eyes and pouted slightly,“You can have a fiancé and still stay here… don’t leave me!” Avery cried.Her cries were so outrightly falling on deaf ears because, as Alex emerged from the hallway with bags in hand, followed by Fredrick, Margaret leaped towards him,“Hi there, my fiancé” she squealed excitedly, hanging on her husband’s arm. Avery shook her head playfully, and gestures to her husband too.“I guess it’s just us from now on...”“I know so..” Fredrick replied.“Invite us to the wedding, if you please” he added.Alex nodded agreeably,“That definitely, you won’t miss.”Turning to Adrian, he laid his free hand on his s

My wife, my enemy! First Encounter
For the umpteenth time, Fredrick’s phone persistently buzzed while he was driving causing a slow irritation on his features. Fredrick Houghton was known to be strict and uptight, he was a man of principles and he genuinely believed in rules.Answering a phone call while driving was a self made rule, he loved to focus and complete a task before moving to the next one, in fact, he was a perfectionist. As the phone buzzed on Fredrick glanced at his car screen, it was his grandma. When Grandma Jojo wanted to be dramatic, she knew exactly how to do it but today’s charade was questionable. Fredrick contemplated a possible situation that could demand such pertinence, his mind swerved at the possibility of an urgent situation and he immediately went to grasp his phone, forgetting the dangers of a bending corner. Just then, he noticed a blonde figure on a bicycle almost colliding into his car, he abruptly slammed into the brakes while his opposition driver tried to veer off course to avoid the
My wife, my enemy! Second Meeting
The next day, Avery Graham set off to work, as usual Mr Sinh and Wallace were already at the Cafe. The morning rush hour began and Avery was swamped with work and deliveries. “You look different” Wallace confessed seeking back up from Mr Sinh.Avery didn’t think letting her hair loose would be much of a difference, the ponytail style was her look all the time.“Good different or bad different?” She asked curious to know significant differences in the hairstyles.“Both” Mr Sinh replied. “Bad because it’s a coffee shop Avery, cover your hair! Good because you look less troubled today. Did something good happen?” Mr Sinh added.“Not really, I got into an accident yesterday” she said sadly, remembering the events from last night.“What?! Are you hurt?”“Where did it happen?” Mr Sinh and Wallace asked simultaneously.“It wasn’t anything serious, it’s just a skinned knee. I handled it” she said shrugging it off.Mr Sinh gave Wallace a look that said “everything is not okay.” “I still thi
My wife, my enemy! Preparations
Fredrick Hughson observed from his rear view mirror as the displeased Avery watched him drive off. He couldn’t understand why he suddenly felt bad for leaving her, but partially he knew Avery could take care of herself.By the time Avery got home, Adrian was already waiting, he looked pale and tired. Seeing him, Avery saw the need to make this contract with Mr Hughson work. She needed more money to take care of her brother.The next day came so rapidly, Mr Sinh had told her to take some days off until she felt better. She was about to risk part of her savings to look better, after all, whatever she spent, she was going to replace it with the payment. She saw with her mind’s eyes all that she needed to change within her, beginning with her hair. Sadly, Avery wished she had a friend to go shopping with, a friend, a sister, anyone. But growing up the way she did, her only consistent friend was her brother.“what are you doing?” Adrian asked startling her from her crouching position.“Who
My wife, my enemy! Change of plans
Grandma Jojo had outdone herself. The food she sprawled on the table was eligible to be called a feast. The entire evening, she stayed glued to Fredrick like an obsessed lover, and for the first time, Avery noticed a cheerful look on Fredrick’s grumpy face. Nei-nei was definitely the way to his heart, Avery thought.If Avery was impressed by the grandiose nature of the mansion, she was doing a good job hiding it, one thing had surely caught her attention- the portrait on the wall! It was a portrait of the younger Nei-nei and Fredrick, he looked about eight in the picture. This peaked Avery’s curiosity, “has it always been the two of them?” She looked around stealthily anticipating another portrait or a photograph of some other people in the house.“Is something wrong, darling?” Fredrick called out, startling Avery and distracting her from her contemplations.“Not at all” Avery said as she shot her million dollar smile at him.“Freddie, it seems you really like this one” Nei-nei said. O
My wife, my enemy! Ready or not
All night Avery turned and twirled on her bed, unable to get any sleep until morning. She was anxious about meeting Fredrick, when she signed the papers, it would finalize whatever reverse chance laid between them, but she was more nervous about her brother. How could she just spring up on him that she was getting married.“The story just won’t add up!” Avery thought. She swished and wiggled like a worm on the bed, frustrated that she had to keep this a secret from Adrian. “I’m so sorry AD, it’s just this one time. Forgive me” she prayed silently.Her body finally came to rest, she allowed herself drift away in sleep, tucking her phone away.“What?! You’re getting married? Fredrick I didn’t know you were dating any one” Attorney Alex exclaimed.“There are many things you don’t know about me” Fredrick replied in the most indifferent way, concealing his fear that he might be making the most impulsive decision of his life.Last night, he didn’t think that his sudden decision to get marr
My wife, my enemy! Carried away…
Fredrick’s phone rang noisily cutting through the thick tension that had formed in the room. He glanced at his screen, it was Nei-nei.He contemplated the welfare of his grandma and his heart instantly sank as he remembered her condition. He couldn’t afford to miss her calls anymore. He had been too busy with getting the contract ready that he forgot to check on her. As he pressed the phone to his left ear, he felt a sudden wave of guilt grip him“Nei-nei…” he muttered apologetically.“Freddie, did you get home safe? Is Avery with you? Have you met her family yet?” Grandma Jojo said in one breathe.She was particularly eager about the wedding, not just because she wanted to see Freddie get married but she had taken a liking to Avery. She really did seem virtuous and impudent- exactly the kind of woman that could contend with Fredrick, even though he hadn’t realized it yet.Grandma Jojo hoped that he realized it himself that marrying Avery was a good choice.“I’m…with them now” Fredrick
