She felt her heart stop for a moment as the words hit her hard. Her brows gathered and she opened her mouth to speak but the words were stuck. She gave Rita a death stare that made her shift uncomfortably in her seat and she looked away immediately. “Rita, are you saying, I should sleep with some other guy to get pregnant?” She asked in disbelief. “It’s just a suggestion, and I told you it won’t sit well with you. But you asked for it anyways,” she said, as she rolled her white bulgy eyes. “No, I can’t believe you’re saying this,” she said with a scoff as she placed one hand on her waist. “Lisa, right now, you don’t have an option, do you?” She asked. “Rita, we’ve known each other since campus days and you know how deep my relationship with Daren was, during those times. All those times, I never cheated on him and you think I will do that now? You think I will do that now that we are both married? Gosh, and who says Daren is the problem?” She asked in a rather high tone “No
He stood up from the bed and hurried to the door with his wife following behind him. As he opened the door, Diana’s furious face appeared in front of him. She was wearing a black nightie with one hand placed on her waist as she stared at him angrily. “What’s..what's the problem?” He asked at once. “Where is that stupid wife of yours?!” She barked and Melisa appeared from the room. “Are you calling my wife stupid?” Daren asked aggressively as his brows gathered. “Yes! Come with me and see how she almost killed my son!” She slammed. “Diana, me? Kill your son?” Melisa asked in surprise. “What stupid accusation is this? Are you okay?!” Daren slammed in her face. “Accusation? Accusation? Come with me and see what you did to my son!” She barked as she stormed away from them and headed out of the passage while they followed behind her slowly. “What’s this crazy lady talking about?” Daren asked in confusion as they all walked down the stairs. They could see Dotun in the livin
She sat in front of the mirror, applying makeup on her face slowly. Clothed in a long red one sleeve dress, she was looking so stunning that morning as she stared at her beautiful reflection in the mirror. Her face was gloomy as she still hasn’t gotten over everything that happened last night. But today, she was determined. Determined to be a woman and do the right thing as her mother in-law has said. She saw Daren’s reflection in the mirror. He was standing behind her, dressed in a black fitted suit and tie. He planted a kiss on her head and rubbed her shoulders gently. She heaved a sigh and didn’t say a word as he continued with the act. He could see her gloomy face in the mirror and he felt his heart sink. They hadn’t spoken much since last night and he knew how deeply hurt she was. He felt so bad for becoming the cause of all her woes. He knew the sacrifices she had made to be with him and he couldn’t bear seeing her go through all these pains all because of him. “My love,” h
Donned in black jeans trousers and black blouse, She stepped out of the elevator and walked hastily along the passage where she could see different rooms with tags on both sides of the passage. With a black scarf around her face, and black sunglasses shielding her eyes, she had disguised perfectly to avoid arousing suspicions from the public. She heaved a sigh as she stopped in front of the room with a tag, 406. She could feel her hands trembling as she tried to knock on the door. Was she really ready for this? She asked herself. Maybe she could just turn back now before it’s too late, she thought as she heaved a sigh. What if this was the only way out to free herself and Daren from the so much agony they’ve been through? She asked. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door slowly. She waited patiently with her heart pounding so fast. She knocked again and a grumpy male voice sounded from the room. “Come in,” the voice sounded in her ear and she gulped and opened the door
“He raped you?!” Rita’s dismayed voice sounded in the living room. She was sitting on the couch with Melisa who was weeping uncontrollably. “How..how did it happen? I don’t get it. He was supposed to have sex with you, not rape you. Why did he rape you?” She asked in disbelief. “I wanted to pull out. I wasn’t interested in the deal any longer. I mean, I couldn’t let that guy get in between my legs. He’s a maniac!” She screamed. “You wanted to pull out?” Rita asked in disbelief. “Yes! I couldn’t do it! I couldn’t cheat on Daren!” She cried as she looked at her face angrily. Rita sighed and looked away from her face. “But you weren’t supposed to pull out,” she said, scratching her hair. “Why?! Do you think it was easy in the first place trying to cheat on Daren?!” She slammed with her body shaking violently. “No, but you should have made up your mind before going. I guess you made him angry,” she said in a calm tone. “Angry? I paid him his fucking money and why should h
She coiled around the duvet with her body shivering from the cold. Her temperature was so high and she had been feeling dizzy all day. She wondered what was wrong as she hardly gets sick. Just then, she became nauseated and she jumped out of the bed and dashed into the bathroom. As he walked into the room, he heard the sound of her vomiting from the bathroom and his brows raised. “Lisa,” he called as he walked further into the room. He didn’t get a reply and he immediately moved to the bathroom. “Love,” he called again and rushed into the bathroom. He halted as he saw her head bent on the wash basin with her hair falling over her face. “Lisa!” He cried and rushed towards her Immediately. He pulled her up and she began to pant as he made her lie on his chest. “No..no no no. This is not good. Your temperature is high, we need to see the doctor,” he cried as he placed his palm on her forehead. “It’s late, what took you so long out there?” She managed to ask amidst pants.
Stepping into the foyer, they could see Elsa Boseman and grandmother Selina discussing in the living room. “Daren,” Selina’s voice sounded and they both stopped. They walked to the living room to meet the women whose eyes were fixed on them. “Good afternoon, mother, good afternoon grandmother,” they both greeted and Melisa knelt before the women. “Lisa, you finally decided to leave your hole,” Elsa said with a scoff as she typed into her laptop. “Mother, she has been feeling sick recently and we just came back from the doctor's office. She needs to rest,” Daren said immediately. “And what is the cause of her sickness? Pregnancy?” Selina asked with a chuckle and the couple took a glance at each other. “No..um..no. The test results aren’t out yet,” he said and Melisa nodded at once. “Okay, we just hope it’s for the better,” Elsa said and they both smiled and walked out immediately. “Did you see her boobs?” Selina asked as soon as they walked away. Elsa chuckled and sh
The sound of her short heels could be heard as she walked into the house slowly. From the stairs, she could see Diana stepping down slowly with her small dark face wearing a smirk. She heaved a sigh as she proceeded to the stairs with Diana’s eyes still fixed on her. She stopped for a moment and they both stood facing each other. “What are you staring at? Hmm? Are you afraid of something?” She asked seriously as she looked at Diana who scoffed and waved back her hair stylishly. “Scared of what? You?” She asked with a smirk and gave her an intimidating look. She chuckled and shook her head while Diana took a step closer to her. “Melisa, I have nothing to be afraid of. I’m always miles ahead of you, and you should be the one to be afraid. You know why? Because soon, you and that dull-witted husband of yours, would lose everything you’ve ever dreamed to have,” she said sinisterly as she looked into her face. She gave a slow mocking laughter and shook her head in disbelief. “
