Nathan

I am woken up at mid night by my very excited wife. I rub my eyes and try to concentrate to what she is saying.

“Your legs are healing! They are healing!” she exclaims while my hearts starts pounding. The doctors did say that I will improve and be able to walk once the swelling on my spine settles. His estimation was a year or so. I did not expect it to be so soon.

“Try to move,” my thrilled wife instructs. I close my eyes and try.

I must have used too much force because my right leg goes right up and hit Amari on the face.

“Auch!”

I flip my eyes open to see her rubbing her forehead.

“I am so sorry, Babe. I…”

“Oh my word, Nathan! Your legs are working!”

I am beating myself up for kicking her face, but Amari is so excited, she is jumping on the bed like a small child.

She suddenly stops, gets off the bed and holds my hand. “Let’s try to walk.”

I look at her, amazed at the energy she seems to possess at midnight.

“Right now?”

“Yes, don’t be a cry-baby. Come,” she insists. S

  • Wrong Marriage, Perfect Love   Payback

    Nathan“As I have said, no one else here has proved to be worthy of my trust. If UNLFA Co partially owns your company, consider our agreements and contracts terminated with immediate effect,” I clarify my stands. All those companies are as good as liquidated without UNLFA Co. This includes Daniel’s, Thomas’ and twenty other companies. “I will give you all time to digest my words before proceeding to the next agenda,” I tell my devastated guests and chat to my wife, Mrs Gail and Brian as the chaos in the conference hall continues. The media houses are going frantic trying to capture every one of their expressions. I don’t think over fifty CEO’s and forty senior managers have ever been fired in one go in this country before.“Are the police here?” I ask Brian after twenty minutes of trying to block what is happening on the floor. “Yes, Sir. The minister is also in attendance and we have confirmation that James and his friends were behind Captain Swart’s shooting.”I nod at Brian. I ha

    Nathan My wife comes out of the suite and my jaw drops. “Amari,” is all I can manage to say. The royal blue gown fits her like a glove and accentuates all her beautiful features. She has always been gorgeous in her modest attire, but she is enthralling now. Her curly hair is left down, just the way I like. I play with her curls and gaze at her alluring eyes. “Do you like it?” she asks and searches my eyes. “My wife is gorgeous with or without clothes,” I say, and she blushes. “You are angelic,” I declare and wrap my arms around her waist. “You are hot, Husband,” she says, making my heart flutter. With all the wealth in the world, she is still the best thing that has ever happen to me. “Ahem!” Mrs Gail clears her throat, and I can sense a witty remark coming. She looks so sophisticated and young in her attire. Brian really outdid himself. I don’t even know how he got my wife and Mrs Gail’s sizes because I had instructed him not to. “You two are pregnant already, surely you ha

  • Wrong Marriage, Perfect Love   Don’t belong

    NathanWe approach William next. He and I grew up together. Our fathers were best of friends and we grew up close. He used to take offence that I was closer to Micheal than him. The two of them used to compete for my friendship. “Old friend,” I greet with a smile and he looks at me with disgust before continuing talking to the woman next to him. “Hi, Sophia,” I greet his fiancee, I also know since I was five. Sophia does not even look at me. Funny how she tried throwing herself at me every chance she got. She is the reason I stopped visiting William’s place because she shamelessly flirted with me when he was not looking. “William, it’s me, man,” I say with a pleading tone while looking at my former friend. He lets out a sigh and I can hear betrayal coming. “Look, Nathan, you don’t belong here anymore. Stop embarrassing yourself and just leave,” he advises before ushering Sophia away. It is the same thing with my other acquaintances, former business partners, and associates. “Ho

    Nathan We meet Isaac at the door of the church. He looks from Mrs Gail to me and gives us unimpressed looks. “I just met Amari. She seems upset. What did you do?” he asks. The fact that he is certain that I am the one at fault speaks to my wife’s character. “Maybe she is the one who did something,” Mrs Gail responds defensively. This woman always has my back. “This is Amari we are talking about,” Isaac says and I confess. He lets out a sigh and tells me what I already know. “She hates lies.” “I know. I am so scared of losing her, man,” I tell him and he gives me the “are you crazy” look. “She is mad, not crazy. Even if she was, I doubt she would ever leave you,” he says and Mrs Gail nods her head in agreement. I really don’t know why they are so certain about this. Amari does not need me. She can definitely replace me in a second if she wants. “I know!” Mrs Gail exclaims excitedly. “You go in there and report her to God for being mad at you. Do it in her hearing. She wi

    Nathan“Amari’s father?” I ask, shocked. “Yes, Sir. Thomas Brown killed his own brother and stole everything from his widow and daughter,” Brian responds. “I can’t believe this!”I knew about Thomas stealing from Amari and her mother, but murdering his own brother never even crossed my mind. It seems I was surrounded by disloyal, pretentious idiots and murderers most of my life. “We were looking into him like every suspect we had for your accident when we found correspondents between him and the forensic guy who looked at his brother’s car after the accident,” Brian explains. “It was years ago when Amari’s father died. Why would Thomas keep all that and risk being caught?” I question. I assume that most murderers get rid of the evidence as soon as possible. “The forensic guy is still blackmailing him, Sir. Thomas has been paying him off for years now,” he responds and scrolls down on the tablet. I read the emails dating back to over a decade and shake my head at how cruel people

    Nathan“Babe, I am taking a walk,” I shout out to Amari, and leave the apartment. I immediately notice Brian’s car on the opposite street when I come out of the yard. He gets to the point the moment I open the door and slip inside.“I must say, I was very skeptical when you told me to hire the guy. Long prison record and he looks like a thug. I was certain that he will steal everything he came across,” Brian confesses. “But you were right as always. Someone did try to kill you and Paul is a genius, Sir,” he adds. “I feel so ashamed when I look at him now. I was a superficial ass.”“Don’t beat yourself up, mate. I don’t think I would have given Paul a chance had I not experience being judged based on my status and appearance. But more than that, I think it was seeing how genuine people can take a person in without giving it a second thought,” I tell him. Amari and the family we have here have thought me humanity I had no idea existed before.He nods and passes a tablet. There is so m
