“Ermmm right here no where else, where’s Ochen? She asked.
“He isn’t coming, he said he’s angry with you, Mukasa replied.

“Me? On my birthday? She asked surprised and Ochen came out from where he hid smiling at her.

“I’m serious Christy, there’s no passing day I always want to take you out of this place and put you beside me, please will you marry me? Do you feel the same way too? Ochen asked and Christiana was speechless looking at him.

“You’re not serious are you? Christy swallowed and asked.
“Is it because I’m not on my knees? Okay I’ll do that, Ochen said wanting to go down but she held him.

A knock came on the door and Achen open up to see Pius,
“What are you doing here? Wait are you following me? She asked.

“Achen you have every reason to be mad with me and I won’t blame you for being mad, but please I’m sorry. I was wrong, but believe me I wanted ending whatever I had with Cynthia, I even stopped it before she got k lled, Pius said and she smirked.
“Will that change the cheating, the lies, the hurts and sIaps you gave me because of her? Achen asked.

“Achen please I hit you because my emotions got the best of me when I saw she was de.ad, I accused you and put all the blame on you without thinking you were equally hurting. But know this Achen, Cynthia wasn’t that part of my life that deep because if it was so, I would have eloped with her when her marriage began to crash. But I didn’t, because I love our family, Pius said.

“You love? Can you just hear yourself Pius? Achen asked.
“Daddy! Princess shouted when she saw him.

“Baby, Pius said and she ran to him.
“Daddy are you coming to stay with us now? I told mommy I miss you and you came right? Princess asked and Pius sadly looked at Achen..

“Mommy daddy is taking us to the big house right? Princess asked Achen.
“Princess go in, we were talking, Achen replied.

“But mommy I want to be with daddy, Princess said..
“I said go in now! Achen shouted on her.

“Go in dear I’ll meet you later, Pius said keeping her down and she cried going in. Achen heaved breathing hard looking at Pius,
“Are you happy now! She shouted on him and he went down on his knees.

“Achen please for the sake of our kids, don’t do this. I promise to be that husband and father you wanted me to be, please forgive me and come back home, its so empty without you, Pius said.
“Then you’ll be begging for eternity, Achen said and slammed the door hard and leaned on the door cleaning the tears that streamed down and she heard Princess crying inside.

She quickly went to her and Carried her,
“Sorry honey I shouted on you, she said cleaning her face.
“but mommy why can’t I be with daddy? I want to be with daddy I miss him please take me to daddy, She said.

“Honey you won’t understand, I can’t go back there, honey I’ll take care of you can’t i take Care of you?, Achen asked.
“But i don’t want, I want to have one big family, you, daddy, i, and baby together with sister Catherine, Princess said and Achen hugged her tight.

“Its okay, Achen said.
Minutes later a heavy rain began to fall and she remembered she did some laundry,

“Honey I’ll go pick the clothes outside okay, Achen said to Princess drying her face and hurried out but met Pius sitting outside the rain waiting for them.

“Achen I won’t leave this place without you and my daughter, I don’t care how the rain will beat me and me sleeping in the cold for days, if it will make you forgive me I’ll gladly bear it, Pius said.
“Well enjoy the rain, Achen said and closed the door.

The rain continued falling and dusk was covering, Achen couldn’t help it anymore when she noticed Pius was still outside in the cold. Hot tears ran on her cheeks and she went in taking a towel and went out to see Pius shivering lying outside.
