It began, I started hearing little moans, I roll on the bed and stretch my hand towards Jesse, but didn't feel him there.
I immediately sat up, I start to panic, for some reason it felt like I was being choked.
I shouldn't think that far, it could be the maids, or maybe someone is watching porn.
I couldn't sleep, I just sat on the bed. I could hear little footsteps like someone's tiptoes, I lay on the bed pretending to be asleep, and Jesse carefully gets on the bed.
Suddenly that harsh smell chokes me, and I start coughing.
"Honey? are you alright?". Jesse asked concerned, he starts patting my back.
I try to catch my breath" I'm fine". He grabs the bottle of water on his lamp desk, he gives it to me, I drink up and hand him the empty bottle.
"Are you sure you're okay?".
" Yes".
"You really scared me there". I turn my face in his direction.
" Where were you?".
he nervously laughs "What do you mean?".
"You weren't in bed, where were you?". He doesn't say anything " Tell me, what you went to do Jesse?".
He groans with annoyance "Why are you so nosy? I just went to get a glass of milk because I couldn't sleep, why do you have to be on my neck all the time?". Then why do you smell like her?, that's what I wanted to ask, but I couldn't bring myself to say it, was I afraid of the outcome.
The next day I finally decided to go to my art gallery.
I was at my studio, doing some painting, I have three studios, one at my father's house, one at my art gallery, and one at my house.
"You have someone here to see you". One of my employees said
"Okay, bring the person in".
" Hey!" I hear Luther's voice, and I instantly get excited.
I exclaim with excitement "Luther!" I wanted to hug him so badly, but I was on my painting apron and didn't want to stain him.
He gives me a playful tap on my back "Hey kiddo".
" Yo Luther!" Stella exclaimed punching him on his arm. I literally heard the punch.
"Ouch!, nice to see you too". He whines
"What are you doing here?" I asked excitedly.
"You know, just decided to meet the one who fired me from the only job I literally enjoyed for years".
I laugh "I'm really sorry Luther, I would be lying if I said I didn't miss you".
"It's alright, have to admit, I've missed you a lot, that's why I decided to drop by".
" How's life by the way, how's your new job?"
He scoffs "Wasn't easy to get one, but if you need pizza". He hands me a card "You can call me, just opened a small pizza business. you might have to give that to Stella, so she'll be able to read it to ya".
This doesn't make sense "I thought you'd work for one of my father's companies, that was what was arranged".
" Really?, wasn't told that, I was just told to get lost" he starts laughing.
"But I told Jesse to-". he jumps in
" Hey, don't sweat it, how's married life? must be fun huh".
For some reason I didn't respond, usually, I would jump and say how wonderful it is and how Jesse has been the perfect man, but now, I'm scared, I'm not so sure anymore.
"It's been great" I force a smile. I take my staff, I get on my feet, I pull my apron "Why don't we go outside, some pigeon must be missing me by now".
We went to the place I usually throw bread crumbs to pigeons, I just needed to get my mind off what I heard last night, I just needed to stay positive.
" You know, if something is bothering you, you can always talk to me". I smile hearing Luther say that.
"You always had a way with words Luther, thank you, but I'm really okay, you don't have to worry about me".
"Are you sure? cause even your painting looked so....so...depressing, you used more black".
I scoff " I guess I can't help my painting expressing my feelings". I let out a sigh "I don't know what I can do Luther, I feel so helpless, and I hate feeling that way, I feel I can't do anything, I'm so scared to be left alone, to disappoint my father".
" Is it Jesse?, if it's him, I swear am going to kill him! I never even liked him!"
"It's okay Luther, I should be able to handle my marriage, it's fine".
He asks concern "Are you sure?".
I smile at him "Yes I am, I promise it's nothing to worry about".
Talking to Luther made me feel better, I couldn't tell him about what was going on, I couldn't bring myself to tell anyone really.
Luther was on his way back when he bumps into someone
"Well well well, speak of the devil". Luther said glaring at Jesse.
Jesse rolls his eyes "What the hell are you doing here?".
"Just decided to pay the young lady a visit".
He scoffs " Sure you did, didn't I tell you not to come here anymore?".
"You did, but she didn't ".
" You got some nerves, tell you what, if I ever see you near my wife again, you'll have to answer to me, and this time, your small little business will go bye-bye, I will make sure you don't see one job, not even the smallest work, try me". He was about to walk away when Luther stops him
"Go ahead and take everything, since that's what you know how to do best, at least I won't have anything to lose, if you hurt her, you are dead and I'll make sure of it". Luther walks away shoving Jesse
I finally got home, I take a sit on the couch in the living room, that smell again, it was strong, someone was on the couch with me.
" What are you doing here Benita" I turn my face in her direction "You shouldn't sit here".
"Why not?".she really knows how to get on my nerves.
I force a smile " Get me something to drink, please".
"You should tell your other helpers, I'm not one of them you know".
I get angry "Stella!" I yelled.
"Yes, miss?".
" get her off my couch!" I could hear struggling, Benita cursed at me, but I didn't care, she decided to play this game with me.
I decided to go to my bedroom, I wanted to wait for Jesse to come home but, it seems he isn't any time soon.
I take my staff, and I climb the stairs, reaching the top, I perceived that harsh smell again, what horrible perfume does she use?.
I suddenly feel someone push me before I knew it I lose my balance, I tumble all the way down the stairs, I couldn't hear anything, it was like everything had gone blank.
This smell, am-am I in a hospital?. I try sitting up but I instantly feel a sharp pain. "Hey, don't do that, you'll hurt yourself". I hear Jesse's voice. I start crying "Jesse, is that you? I was so scared.... I thought I was going to die". He gives me a hug "I'm so sorry honey, I'm sorry you had to experience that". I sob "it hurts so much, she-she tried to kill me, that girl- Benita, she tried to kill me!". " Hush..., relax, no one did baby, you slipped and you fell". Those words echoed in my ears, You slipped and you fell. Someone walks in, I hear a finger snap, it was my father. "Father!" I cried out He wore a worried tone in his voice"Oh, look at you, what happened?, I got a call from Stella, she told me you have been rushed to the hospital, I didn't know it was this bad, What the hell happened!!".No one was saying anything, I didn't say anything." isn't anyone going to say something? in a house full of maids and my daughter falls down the stairs, what could've caused this
My father was angry with me, he didn't speak to me for days, I tried calling but he didn't respond. I don't regret my actions, he needed to understand that I am now Jesse's wife, and it's only natural for me to stand by him. At least that's what I thought. I didn't feel like myself for days, I kept convincing myself that I did the right thing, but for some reason, the scene kept playing in my head, the smell, like it was hunting me. I've been in my bedroom for three days now, I haven't been able to leave, I guess I'm still shaken up. "Miss, this came for you," Stella said handing me a box. "What's this?". I asked curiously "I guess some item, it was sent by mail, it's for you miss". I open it, I bring out the item, it felt hard and small, I couldn't quite tell what it was "What is it?". I could hear Stella scoff a little "It's an ID cane miss". "Huh? from who?". " it doesn't quite say".Why would anyone send me this? "Uhmm, give it to me then, I'll keep it" I hand it to her
I moan softly as Jesse slowly releases and falls back on the bed, we were both panting "That was epic," he said with a bit of excitement. I dont say anything "What is it?" he asked concerned "What do you mean?" I replied rather bluntly. "You've been acting so weird lately, are you okay?". " Yes, just had a long day, that's all". "If you say so then, I'll hit the shower". He gets off the bed I let out a sigh. There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true. By Soren Kierkegaard I have been trying to convince myself to forget everything, to look at the bright side of things, but I don't think I can, it's killing me. Seems like my husband's mistress is hiding, she does as if she isn't in the house, the only time you hear her is when my husband is fucking her. I decided to visit the pool in the house, water always helps me relax. Stella assist me in getting in the pool, I start swimming, I felt like my troubles w
I felt super sick the next morning, I was throwing up like crazy. Jesse opens the door and rushes towards me, He touches my forehead "You have a fever?". I don't say anything "must be because of all the crying, I'll call a doctor, go back to bed and rest, I'll have the maid get your breakfast". He rushes out and bangs the door. Sometimes I wish I could see my reflection, to see how I look, to see what I look like, to know exactly what's wrong with me. A doctor checks on me, and he lets out a sigh "Well, what's wrong with her?" Jesse asked curiously "She's pregnant, congratulations". Hearing the doctor say those words, my hands immediately touch my tummy, there's a baby growing inside of me. "Pregnant?!" Jesse exclaims with a confused tone in his voice "Yes, it seems like she's been stressed out lately, please try to take very good care of her, I'll be leaving now, again, congratulations to you both". The doctor exit the room leaving just me and Jesse. He scoffs "You're pregn
Three months passed, and it felt like I was stuck on some time wheel, I went through the same thing over and over again, Jesse spent more time with his lover, and I spent my time reading and listening to audios on raising a child. I miss that early stage in our marriage when I would wait up for him to come home so we will have dinner together, I miss being excited when I hear the sound of his car, I miss us making love together and holding each other's hands when we fall asleep, even though they might not have meant much to him, it did to me. Jesse's family is coming over for dinner tonight, Because they want to see me, I am carrying their grandchild after all. I told my father the news about a month ago, and he already sent enough baby things for me to start a sales job. I made sure the maids set the tables and made dinner to their taste, they are very picky. 8 pm sharp and I hear the doorbell, Jesse quickly stands next to me and wraps his hands around me, it made me feel uncomfor
"Honey can we talk?". Jesse said entering my room, and shutting the door. I had just come out of the shower. "Sure what do you want to talk about?". I remove my towel and I noticed he turns away, I smile " What's wrong? not like you haven't seen me naked before". He awkwardly laughs "I forget that you easily notice movements, almost feels like you aren't blind at all". I walk closer to him, I place my hand on his chest, the other on his shoulder, I slowly move my hand from his chest down to his dick. I whisper in his ear "Being pregnant has its way of making someone feel so darn horny" I go down on my knees, I unzip his pants "Oh god!" He moans as I bring out his cock that's already as hard as a rock and put it in my mouth,I could feel his whole body shaking as I make enjoyable noises while sucking his dick, he starts moaning out and using his dick to choke me, I remove it from my mouth instantly and get on my feet. I take off his jacket, his tie, his pants, his shirt, and his
I feel light touch, I open my eyes, and to my surprise, I see my hands, I start to panic, What's going on? I see someone approaching me, a man with rich grey hair, he stops in front of me and snaps his fingers, my eyes widen "Father?", he smiles at me, my eyes gather tears and I hug him "Oh father, I was so scared, I thought I lost you" tears freely flow down my face, I use my hand to wipe the tears, I wear a bright smile " I can see your face, isn't that great! I don't know what's happening" He touches my face and kisses me on my forehead, suddenly everything becomes blurry "What's this?, why can't I see you anymore?" I stretch my hands "Father!, father!" I cried out "Father!...." I gasp sitting up straight "Where am I?" I hear a plate drop "She's awake!" I hear a girl scream out. I can't tell where I am, there's this odd smell, like dough. I try getting on my feet but I instantly fall to the ground, I noticed my hand was connected to a drip. "Careful" I hear a familiar voice say,
I gasp waking up to an awkward smell of flour. I let out a disappointed sigh with the realization that everything that had happened to me wasn't a dream. I blame myself, I was the one who decided to marry Jesse, I'm the one who decided not to do anything when I found out about his adultery, I was the one who let Benita stay with us, I caused Jack to die, he saved me, I wish he didn't. Memories came back to me while I was asleep, I recall everything that happened. I hear a knock on the door "come in" I said in my weak tone I sense little footsteps "Sorry if I disturbed you" is that girl's voice again "It's fine, what brings you here Uhm?". " Lisa, Lisa Benjamin-Kim". She has the same last name as Luther. "I came here to ask if you wanted breakfast" "I'm not hungry, thank you". " Why?" She asked in her high pitched voice "I don't feel like it, but thank you". I hear her sigh "Are you, Luther's daughter?". She replies instantly "Yup" "Oh, then I guess your mum is-*. "My mum
