Episode 7

Andrew's POV

After taking a last look at myself at the mirror, I was satisfied with what I saw. My new ash suit fits properly and the white tie gave it a perfect look.I smiled at myself and turned to see Nancy staring at me. 

"Give me a minute darling. There's something I want to discuss with you" Nancy said..

"What's it? I'm late for work" I said picking up my brief case..

"Uhm..the doctor wants to meet you by 8am today concerning our infertility issues" she stuttered. 

I paused and turned to her. "What? You're joking right?" 

"No! I'm not" She maintained a serious face.

"What the heck Nancy! Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" I shrieked.

"How could I have told you when you came back home late and tired yesterday?"

"Look! I'm sorry but I can't do that! I'm already late for work. Ask her set another appointment"

"Come on peter! All you have to do is to go see the doctor, it won't even take more than thirty minutes of your time" She insisted.

"Is that what you think? Thirty minutes is a whole lot of time..I can't just spend it on a stupid meeting with a doctor" I half yelled.

"Stupid meeting? Is that what you call it? We're talking about how to get our own child and you're here busy talking about your damn work" She fired.

"Child! Child ! Child ! Is all I hear you say..When will you accept the fact that you're barren and can never have a child" I growled. At that moment, I realized how harsh my words were and regretted saying them.

Nancy blinked her eyes in surprise as tears welled up in them. Before I could apologize, she gave me a hard slap across my face. 

"Who the hell do you think you are to say such words to me?" She choked

I rubbed my already reddened cheek. I wasn't angry, I deserve to be slapped more. "I..I'm sorry..I didn't mean to hurt you. Please forgive me " I stuttered.

" It's not your fault, it's mine. I am a fool for thinking that you would one day see my relevance and let go of all those sluts that is hell bound on ruining our marriage" She snarled.

" What do you mean by that?" I asked confused.

"You don't care about our infertility issues because you're cheating on me with that daughter of a bitch called your personal assistant" Nancy finally dropped the bombshell. 

I flinched back in surprise. H..how..did she find out?

"You're surprised right? I know how you flirt with ladies outside but I never said anything..Do you know why? Because I have failed you as a wife.. Since I couldn't produce you a child, I have no right to stop you..But now the doctor has given me a ray of hope, I won't let you snatch that from me..You'll have to go see the doctor"

"And what if I say no?" I snapped.

"Then you'll have to get ready to lose all you've worked hard for, because I'll bring out all your dirty secrets to the media" she smirked. 

"Are you threatening me?"

"No I'm not! I'm only warning you..Get the heck into your car and go meet the doctor in the hospital now"

"You'll regret this" I vowed walking out. I got out of the house, as soon as my driver saw me approaching, he pushed open the passenger

I can't believe my wife could be this fierce..

But how did she manage to find out about my secret?

Now I have no choice than to go see the f*ckin' doctor..

"Is the hospital still far?" I asked the driver.

"No sir! We're almost there"

Just then, my phone buzzled. I looked at the unknown number which was calling me..Who could it be?

I ended the call. But the jerk kept on calling. I angrily answered the call.. "Who the hell are you?" I yelled into the phone..

"I'm your down fall " A hoarse voice said..

"What?"

"I have pierced your back tires, in no time your car is gonna summersault and boom! You'll be nothing but a dead man" The voice said and burst out laughing..

Before I could say anything, he hung up. What was that?

"S..stop the car!" I said..

"What??" The driver asked surprised..

"I said stop the car now!!" I yelled and he immediately brought the car to a halt..

"Go check the tires of this car "

"But why sir? I mean, I just checked it before we left the house" the driver protested..

"I don't give a damn about your opinion! Get the hell out of here and go check if the tires are all okay" I yelled..

He quickly opened the door and went out to check the tires..
