EPISODE 8

The next morning……

I woke to find out Asher didn’t come home. I had gone to bed early after leaving Annie’s place in the evening.

I was feeling really weak and had to go to bed early. Besides, I already had dinner at Annie’s.

There was no sign of Asher and I needed no soothsayer to tell me he didn’t come home.

It not the first time he won’t spend the night but he would call or text to let me know he won’t be coming home. A meeting or business trip came up, he would say.

I brought out my phone from the drawer beside my bed and checked to see if there is any message from Asher but none.

Just a message from Annie and Chloe. I clicked on Chloe’s message.

Chloe- when are you free?, would you like to hang out?

I sighed and replied.
‘When I am free, I will let you know ‘ I sent.

I got up from the bed and contemplated whether to call him or not but I decided not to.

He didn’t call me, why should I? And where the he.ll is he?

‘Having fun with sluts of course ‘ my sub conscious answered for me.

He can’t possibly be cheating right? It doesn’t even matter. I also cheated.

‘Unknowingly ‘ my subconscious said.

“Trying to comfort me, I gat you” I huffed.

But why did he deny knowing me. God, am not thinking about this again. I can’t just seem to get it off my mind.

Seeing him again should be easy. All I need to do is contact Chloe and …..

‘Are you thinking what am thinking’ that was my subconscious and am sure if it a human, it would be winking at me right now.

“Am not and I will never be. Am not seeing him again. It better that way”

I told myself and quickly brought out my phone to text Annie.

‘Hi, good morning. I told Asher and he agreed. When are we leaving?’ (I sent)

I sighed and dropped my phone before leaving for the bathroom.

Afternoon

I absentmindedly watched a show on tv as I thought about going to the hospital for check up.

What if am truly pregnant? Well I ab®rt it. I remembered Asher’s words.

Am not ready for a baby now but I can’t abort the innocent child if it comes out positive.

And why don’t Asher want a baby now. Am not getting any younger, same with him.

I can’t let him order me around and am keeping the baby, that is if I am pregnant.

I try not to think about it and concentrate on the movie am watching.

Later that night…..

It was around 10pm I started feeling sleepy. I was watching funny skits on my phone and wasn’t aware time has gone.

I rubbed my sleepy eyes and decided to go to the bedroom to sleep. I was currently on the couch. I got up and almost immediately, heard the sound of a car driving in.

Oh God, He is back. In an hurry, I rushed into the bedroom, hitting my leg on the wall on my way but I didn’t feel the pain at first.

I jumped on the bed and used the duvet to cover my head and closed my eyes.

It was then, I started feeling the pain on my leg. Oh God, I hope it’s not bleeding.

I could hear the door open after some minutes and I closed my eyes more tightly.

“Camile” I heard his voice and his footsteps coming towards me.

I didn’t answer.

Then all of a sudden, he tapped my leg. The exact same place I hit my leg and I jumped off the bed screaming in pain.

He was taken aback too and he looked at me questionably.

I said nothing and took the time to glance at my knee. I had hit it really hard and now , it is bleeding.

What was I thinking when I decided to rush off to bedroom?

Asher eyes moved to my injured leg and he scoffed.

“What happened to you..?, you know what, I don’t care….am starving….serve my food and bring it here” He stated and my head shot up in shock.

He doesn’t care? Oh wow!

“Why am I not surprised…?, if you must know, I didn’t prepare anything!, I thought you would probably not come home, just like you didn’t yesterday”

“Really, Camile?, Do you even have an idea you are speaking gibberish right now?, I can decide to sleep home or not. I don’t have time to exchange words with you. I give you 10minute to prepare me something!” He said with a commanding tone.

“But my leg….” I whimpered.

“I don’t care about your leg ….all I care about is feeding my stomach,…”

I wanted to talk but I decided not to. I would be leaving the house for a vacation with Annie anyways and let see how he is going to order me around.

I got up from the bed and giving Asher a quick glance, I limped out of the room after carrying my phone.

I got to the kitchen and sat down, my leg really hurting. I would treat it when am done cooking because sadly, my husband doesn’t care about me.

After a while, I stood up and was about to start cooking when my phone beeped.

I checked and it was a message from Annie. I scoffed.

She is just replying me now. I clicked on the message.

‘From Annie -We would leave in two days time. is that okay by you ?

I grinned. Of course it is. Can’t wait to finally be out of Asher’s reach.
