As I sat across the room with my drink on my hand swirling it and staring at it contently, I took a large sip and laid it on the floor, discerning of how life had suddenly taken a bumpy crack on me, I had such an astounding life; an acquitted life full of amity and elation, though we had not much I adored every bit of it with him. As many believed, I got fortunate, I am grateful, I married my better half, a very devoted man. To be straight-forward he was and still is my best friend; I hope. My face dropped in sadness thinking of how he now takes our relationship. My name is Leila; the legal wife to Billy. Yes, the legal wife, up until now the law still recognize me as the one. My heart sunk at this thought, in the previous years, I needed not to introduce myself, he was always by my side, everyone knew who we were and how deep our love was. Uurgh! F*ck life! I groaned out in bitterness. Even with a broken heart I still can’t find a good reason to hate him. Billy was one of a kind, He always seemed to me to have an excellent heart, and that is the quality I value most in people, in a way to us both it was love at first sight. he was the most lovable person, a kind hearted person, the best dad, a loyal friend, and above all the most romantic partner. Saying out all these qualities of him reminds me of our good days. Our love life was one of a kind, even when he was upset with me, in the absence of a smile, he would always have appeared to be genial and warm, there was always a cool gaze in his expression. His presence always made me feel at ease, but now all these are just soon to be gone memories. my face had shriveled, my upper lip had sunk in, and my eyes were dim, at the thought of letting my memories with Billy rest. I reached out to my drink once more, pulled out my hand to catch it, but it slithered and almost splashed, my eyes were focused on our wedding portrait, that was actually the only beautiful thing and memory I still got from our big day, slowly I relaxed my hand and progressively held the glass, as I took a sip. my lips held a faint smile and my eyes twinkled. I still remember our last days together, they were the most memorable days of our lives, we had an erotic love life, our coitus life was something else, to him any place was okay as long as it was with me, he loved hugging me from behind, making me feel his girth even in public, his tender warm lips touching mine always made me dreamy. His calm expressions while calming me down were the most magical ones. Upon remembering all this a slow smile spread over my mouth and spilled into my eyes. I remember our last flirtatious, he was wild and beasty, he did it roughly like he knew it was going to be our last ever encounter. The moment he got his flight details confirmation text, he quickly rushed towards me and slammed me against the wall, he dug his fingers into my shoulder, eliciting a whimper from me, I ignored the pain he had caused my back and stared straight into his eyes. Not caring what I was doing, I still held the vacuum cleaner in my hands, before I could even say a word, his icy lips were all over me, kissing and sniffing my neck endlessly. And he thrust into my core pumping his girth until I could only feel him. A breathless moan escaped my lips. The tantalizing sound sending pleasurable shock waves through his body. My hips rocked bringing him father until- I flanged my hands around his neck, sucking him greedily, for a second we forgot the open windows and the door, I tried resisting but, he grabbed my hips, kissing me hard and leaving me breathless. I relaxed my muscles and slowly danced into his tunes, we were kissing, our bodies pressed together and arms around each other, when a cold breeze and sharp rays of sunlight struck us, reminding us we were in a wrong place. Suddenly a loud crack, as if lightning were striking, sent a shockwave of power that made my mouth tremble. I sunk in fear of the kids catching up on us, a cold expression covered my body as I slowly dropped my kiss turning my head towards the creaking sound. But he somehow was unbothered by the sound, he ignored the terror and pulled me back slating my head to his chest, he pressed hard my cheeks with both his hands as his gaze lifted to mine and he smiled as he noted the rising color in my cheeks. Giving me the look of, ‘don’t worry it’s our home,’ as he pulled me close again, kissing my lips while one hand fumbled with the buttons on my pants. Gently I relaxed and played along but still my mind was on edge. With a knob in my throat, I managed to whisper, “the kids.” His expressions dropped by the sound from me, he gritted his teeth in a boring gesture and sighed out loud as he responded, “I took them to Suzan on my way here, now…...?” Suzan is my elder sister. Huh! he always takes care of everything, what a show off. I smiled mordantly at him. my arms slid around him, and he pulled me against him, kissing me hungrily. His warm lips left min
