As Mr. Whyte and Cody came down the stairs, he stared at those filing in and out. “What’s going on here?” He asked.“No idea, I heard it was an order from Nina, to move her plants and her clothes out, then some paintings” Cody answered indifferently. Mr. Whyte wondered if he was just putting on a brave face to fool them or he really did not care about Nina.************* At the Story’s Manor, Amaya, Nina and Mrs. Story sat at the patio having an afternoon chat when, some movers brought Nina’s belongings in, to Nina’s utter shock. So Cody was in so much of a hurry to kick her out, he couldn’t even wait for her to come for her things herself. She teared up and rushed to her room. Mrs. Story was getting angry, “Cindy must hear of this! How could Cody do this to Nina!”Amaya figured her plans would go to nought if Mrs. Story called Cody’s mum, she immediately stopped her.“No, Mrs. Story, I was actually the one who sent the movers” Amaya explained.“Why on earth would you do this?” A

Cody opened his eyes and immediately sat up with a start when he realized he was lying next to Eileen. He tapped her to make sure he wasn’t dreaming. They were both naked and lying in his bed. His phone beeped and he quickly got out of bed to answer it, so he wouldn’t wake Eileen. It was Cecily, he creased his eyebrows before answering the call. “Hi, Cecily good morning what’s up?”“Cody are you still mad at us?” Cecily’s voice came through from the other end.“Shouldn’t you be at your honeymoon? Stop bothering about me” Cody answered.“Mum called, she’s worried about you, you’re not at your place in Witting, you’re not at her place either” Cecily stated.“I’m fine Cecily, I’ll go to work today” “Cody, did you consider what I told the other time? You need to stop living in the past okay, please what is done is done…”“Cecily… you married who you love right?… congratulations you’d never know how it feels to get fucked up the way you fucked me up… I wish you all the best… when you

Nina dressed up and put her favorite perfume on. She admired herself in the mirror and turned to Amaya. “How do I look?”“Splendid” Amaya responded.She looked back in the mirror and smiled. “Okay I’m leaving”She run out in her flowery, flowing long dress and her hair held in a ponytail. Amaya run after her.“Wait for me”Nina immediately stopped.“My dress is sleeveless I need a shawl” she exclaimed.“No you don’t, it’s freaking warm outside, you’d wish you went out naked” Amaya cautioned.“Oh my god! Should I get more sunscreen then?” She asked. Amaya smiled calmly.“You’re fine dear, you’re fine” Nina smiled back “thanks” she said and run out.Mrs. Story who was standing in the stairway smiled heartily.“It’s been a while since I saw her this happy, what’s happening?” She quizzed Amaya.“I got her a new friend” Amaya answered. Mrs. Story smiled even wider.“Must be a nice friend” Mrs. Story added. Amaya nodded. Cody hawked in the park scrutinizing every lady to see if it was hi

Dylan couldn’t help the silence anymore Nina was being too distant and awkward and it was killing him. Ever since that kiss at the park she had withdrawn from him. Wouldn’t really talk to him and wouldn’t reply his messages. Nina on the other hand was just lost in her thoughts, the kiss had left her feeling guilty and confused, she felt she had cheated on Cody as technically she was still his wife. This made her feel guilty. She was worried Dylan would view her as unfaithful and what was Cody going to say if someone told him about it? She panicked. Her phone started to beep. She sighed when she realized it was a call from Dylan. “ Hello Dylan…”“Can you come to your balcony?” He requested almost immediately.She walked to the balcony and found Dylan flying a kite close to her balcony.“Grab the tail” he shouted out to her.She reached for it and grabbed it and pulled the kite in, “I’m sorry, please say something” the kite read. Nina smiled and stared at him.“Come on in!” She respo

Eileen walked into a run down section of the city with her bodyguard. She wore a nose mask and sunglasses, they both walked briskly, and got to one apartment on the ground floor, her bodyguard joined two wires that were hanging out on the right side of the door. A bell rang from inside and a well built man opened the door. He smiled at them and let them in. The whole room was in a deplorable state just like the outside. The couch was falling apart so was centre table, the walls, the lights and every other thing. Eileen didn’t look bothered at all, she was used to this. The gang made good money and their homes were far different from this place. This was only their hideout, there was no need to worry about how it looked. She sat comfortably on the deteriorating couch and was surprised by how firm it was.“Yo, Benjy, what brings you here this fine evening?” The man asked lighting a cigarette. “Care for a smoke?” He asked Eileen who shook her head then he offered one to the bodyguar
