“Common Christy you’ve been away for years won’t you stay with me at least for a month before leaving again? Jendy asked.

Cynthia love with Mukasa quenched 2 years ago when he lost his job again. He survived doing minor jobs while Cynthia was not shaken with Pius by her side.
Achen was suspecting something but she couldn’t figure what it was as she was so confused.
“Where are you going to? Mukasa asked Cynthia who was about going out.
“I beg your pardon, can’t I go out anymore? She asked back.
“I am beginning to wonder where you’ve been going to Cynthia, you are not working and not even ready to work to support the bills, then where do you always go to leaving the kids and dressing so expensive, he said and Cynthia smirked.
“Last I checked you’re the man of the house and its your responsibility to pay every bills in this house, so you don’t need to complain.
Do you have a problem with me going out? I simply want to get fun and leave this boring place you call a house, she replied.
“Is that so? Cynthia what ever you are doing don’t you dare let me find out, he said.
“Else you’ll do what? Who is a better cheat between us? Or is it because you’re worst than an infidel now that’s why you’re so loyal, Cynthia said.
“What did you say? Mukasa angrily asked holding her fiercely.
“Get your hands off me! Isn’t that what you are when you can no longer take care of the family you are an infidel! She shouted and Mukasa sIapped her.
“Daddy! Regina cried coming out holding her sister as Mukasa already sat on Cynthia body giving her serious beatings.
“Daddy please don’t do it again, Regina cried and he stood up and left for his room.
“Ba$tard! Infi.del you’ll pay for this! Cynthia shouted getting up and saw Regina holding her baby.
“How dare you touch my baby you ba$tard! She shouted taking her daughter from her.
“You’re so annoying like your foolish parents! She shouted and left with her daughter.
She texted Pius on the way and he saw the text.
He quickly deleted it and began dressing up,
“Are you going out again? Achen asked.
“Yea there’s something I need to do, he replied.
“Again? But you just came down yesterday after one week being in the capital, she said and Pius looked at her.
“Tell me something Achen, you mean I shouldn’t work anymore and respond to whatever duties I need to attend to? He asked.
“That’s not what I mean, but please can you have time for your family? You barely have time for me or your daughter, don’t you feel it? Achen asked.
“Please this emotional whatever won’t put food on our table, I am working hard to give us that comfortable life so please respect that, many women out there are dying to experience this, he said giving his daughter a peck and left the house immediately.
“What the he.ll is going on with him? I swear he.ll will be loosed open if I get to know what you’re doing at my back Pius! She shouted angrily and watched him drove off.
She looked at her 2 years old daughter looking at her and she left the room and called up Cynthia,
“Hi babe, what’s up? Cynthia asked.
“Not fine, not fine at all, I think my husband is cheating on me, I can feel it, Achen replied breathing hard.
“Hey calm down okay, did you catch him cheating? Cynthia asked.
“No I’ve never, I have checked his phone countless times but I can’t find anything, I’m so confused right now and I can’t take away this feeling when I haven’t caught him before.
He longer steady at home or have time with us, is no longer funny, she replied.
“You’re just paranoid, your husband is a business man and as he’s growing he is getting more connection and business trip.
You should understand that, besides you are lucky you have someone like him struggling to see you live a life of a Queen with your beautiful Princess.
Please don’t let him hear this, you may get him upset to feel you’re not appreciating his efforts, Cynthia said and Achen heaved and sat down..
“God I don’t know how I can get this feeling off me, is getting me crazy Cynthia don’t you understand? Achen asked.
“Your husband isn’t that kind of person, so please stop nagging him you may push him into the hands of another woman, I’m sure you don’t want that right? Cynthia asked and Achen scoffed.
“That woman will be so sorry, Achen said and Cynthia rolled her eyes.
“You have nothing to worry about, your husband is even too busy to think of that, just let me worry about this infidel of a man called my husband, Cynthia said and Achen smiled.
“You just made me smile, isn’t that word too huge on him? Achen asked.
“He deserves it and even more, please relax yourself and stop worrying over nothing, Cynthia replied.
“Thanks honey, and how is my baby Catherine? Achen asked.
“She’s fine, my regards to Princess okay, Cynthia replied.
“I will, thanks friend, bye, Achen said.
“And you’re welcome, Cynthia said and dropped the call smiling to herself.
“Oh girl you’re lucky its me, as a friend I’ll sure treat him right after all he was mine first, Cynthia said licking her lips and called Pius line.
“Hello love, I’m on the way, he picked up.
“Alright I’m waiting in the hotel we do meet, She said faking tears.
“Don’t worry and pull yourself together okay I’ll be there soon, Love you, he said and she dropped the call and fell on the bed with her daughter.
“Mommy where is daddy? Catherine asked.
“Didn’t you see what daddy did to me? Was it good? She asked and her daughter shook her head.
“Good so don’t ask me about him, will you lick ice cream? Cynthia asked and she nodded.
“I know you’ll say yes, alright let’s go, Cynthia said putting on her shoes………….
