KARMA 👹☠️💀🖤

EXPOSURE

Chapter 2

On the bed laid Karma looking moody and scrolling through her phone uninterestingly.

"Sweetheart, you don't have to take what your father said to heart. I will try talking to him and I am sure he will come around because he loves you" her mom said as she came in and sat on her bed

" Okay. Mom please can you stay with me until I fall asleep? " Karma asked

" Of course sweetheart" her mom said and tucking her in properly before laying down beside her and patting her back.

Few minutes later, Karma fell asleep and Mrs Ceilia went back to her room. Walking into the room, she met an angry Wilson.

"Where are you coming from?" He asked standing up

"From Karma's room. She...."

"What were you doing there?" He asked impatiently

"I went to cheer her up because your actions during dinner really spoilt her mood. Honey, you know there are other ways in which you can use to talk her out of her choice of profession without making her feel bad" she explained softly

" So you were badmouthing me in front of our daughter" he said walking closer to her

" Of course not. Why are you being tetchy?" she asked but he ignored her and went into the bathroom and she followed suit

" Honey, are you okay?"

"I am fine. Just leave me alone!"

"Well you certainly don't look okay"

" So what? If I am not okay, are you going to treat me like one of your patients! " He shouted and pushed her aside and walked out.

Mrs Cecilia stood shocked when she heard the sound of a car engine roaring to life. Looking out the window, she saw her husband driving out with speed.

The next day, she drove Karma to school and left for work. After spending a few hours at work, she decided to go home. On getting home, she went straight to their room and saw her husband's phone and his clothes scattered on the floor. Impulsively, she picked up his phone which was unlocked and went straight to his mesages. She stumbled the messages he received yesterday and her eyebrows knit in confusion.

"No delivery was made yesterday" she muttered to herself and then she heard footsteps. She hurriedly dropped the phone and ran out before coming in naturally.

"My love" Her husband called but she kept mute "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to lash out at you yesterday" he apologized

" Where is your car? I didn't see it downstairs"

" Really? I am apologizing to you and you are asking about my car?"

" Where did you go to yesterday night?" she asked

" That's enough! you have no right to ask me those questions"

" That's a lie Wilson. I have every right to ask you those questions because I am your wife! " she shouted

" How dare you shout at me? Are you crazy?" he asked glaring dangerously at her

" No, you are the one who is crazy. I mean who in their right senses would act this way! " she spat and this earned her a heavy slap from Wilson

" Arrgghhh!" She screamed and then he pounced on her

During dinner time, Karma walked into the kitchen but didn't see her mother but her father

"Good evening daddy. Where's mom?" She asked

" She'll be working overtime today"

" But mommy always informs me whenever she'll be working overtime"

" Are you in anyway calling me a liar? "

"Ofcourse not. So, what are we having for dinner?" Karma asked

" I guess we will be having tea and croissant since that is the only thing i can put together now" her dad replied setting the table

" Oh my goodness! Dad you could have just called me to come and make dinner" She whined. " I am going to call mommy and tell her that you are making me drink tea and croissant because she's not around" Karma said playfully

" Do you also think I'm a joke? What did your mother tell you yesterday night?" he asked shooting daggers at her

" Not..thing"

"Fine. Eat your food" He said and placed her food in front of her.
