2days later
Tare emptied her bowels, she readjusted her brown skirt and made for the door only to see an angry husband in her office’
Richard? She asked suprised.Is there a problem? When did you come back?
Richard had left the previous day for Abuja..seeing him in her office got her quite surprised.
How long has this been going on? He said throwing the envelope at her.All the contents fell…sending fear into her system.
Tell me…Richard yelled.
All her life, she had never seen him that angry..he scolded her on rare occasions propably for her own safety’
Have you suddenly lost your ability to speak…come on you’v been cheating on me all this while and have been too blind to see..no wonder you convinced me to leave so you could have freedom with your lover…
He could see tears trickle down her eyes but he didn’t care’..she had hurt him..After all the trust he had for her…Tare stood motionless and mute.Maybe she had lost her ability to speak..her tears fell at ease as she watched her husband accuse her fasely’.
She saw him walk towards the door’..he was leaving without even hearing from her’
Ri…ch..ard she stammered’
Without taking a glance at her he opened the door and left’.She slumped into her seat as she sobbed loudly’
********
Mummy”…pearl screamed and ran into Tare’s arms.
Baby how was school?
Fine mum, nanny made my favourite. …and am all full.
Okay love, mummy have to rest okay.
Mummy are you crying?
Pearl asked when tears trickled down Tare’
No baby,something entered my eyes’….an insect.
What?? pearl shouted frightened’
yes. ..mummy have to rest now, take care my love.She said planting a kiss on her forehead’
she made for her room and colasped on the bed.
Mitchell held the doorbell, as her hands quiver against her wish…
Mama,she managed to whisper in between tears’
My daughter”…you made the right decision. She said pulling her to herself’
It’s okay dear…stop crying”
Mitchell sniffed louder.
Am sorry mama’…I was confused, it was unreasonable of me to leave my husband at the time he needed me most”
My child, you don’t have to cry, many women in your predicament would have done worse.
Mitchell cleaned her tears with her hanky before asking about frey’
Is my husband in?
Yes, in his room. Go and talk to him, he has been a shadow of himself’..and all my effort to bring him back to his normal self have been invain….mitch stole a glance at the woman who had been there for her all these years”…even when she had no family present on her wedding day, she still acccepted her.she was a rare mother inlaw”
Okay mama.
********
Frey’…she said breaking into tears.He hadn’t taken note of her presence, she saw him doing something he had never done. ..except their wedding day”..his eyes engrossed in what he was reading.The “bible”
Chel’….have you come for a divorce?
No no..no my husband”..she ran into his arms as she sobbed even louder than when she was with his mother’
Am sorry..am so sorry..I said everything out of pain, I was hurt..am sorry my husband”
He kissed her hair before saying”
Am guilty here, not you..am sorry for not telling you before you found out.You deserve someone better my dear, someone that can give you children”
Honey please don’t say that…we can adopt okay? we are married and I want to grow old with you’…that someone is you..Please.she held him tighter”
Are you sure? he asked in his husky voice.
Am very sure love”..I promise not to freak out again.You are my only family…I don’t ever want to loose you.
He placed soft kisses on her neck…
Thank you”…baby he muttered.
*******
what do expect me to believe? should I act like nothing is wrong after seeing such picture. .come on, she’s human and things are bound to happen.
Am suprise you are talking this way…I mean you knew your wife for ages before wedding her….you can’t just believe anything you see.
so what are you trying to say?I shouldn’t believe what I saw?
Ask her first, let her explain. Your wife look to innocent to cheat on you.”
Richard thought for a while before saying

“noted”..he said ending the call.
After the incident at her office, he had taken the next available flight to Abuja…he just couldn’t believe his wife had betrayed him.Yet he couldn’t concentrate at work…thoughts of her kissing another man was like a pill to an early grave to him.What if she had slept with him”….he was been tormented emotionally, and he couldn’t help it”.
Sir???
What…am..sorry, he stammered.
Am sorry sir, but have been here for sometime calling for your attention…is anything the matter?
no..not at all.

While he glanced through it…she busied herself with wondering how would be like on bed.She had heard of cases of cute guys…that couldn’t do well”
She gave out a little moan…still deep in her world of fantasy”
what? Richard asked quite surprised”
nothing sir…she said rather embarrassed.
He had too many problems already not to be bother about someone who couldn’t get over her boyfriend’s touch of the previous night”…so he thought.
