A Sudden loss
I mumbled trying to break her lungs. I loved her wailings and the revenge I was getting.
“Hey, what are you doing”
I turned to see the boss looking at me already convicting me of murder.
He was the last person I had expected to walk in here and it pained me he did.
I quickly let released her from my firm grip. Audrey held her neck,massaging and twisting it to know the lasting impact of my grip. Her sobs became louder when he saw Andrew and she quickly ran to his side,her face a deep shade of crimson. She looked like she had been set ablaze and I felt proud for being able to kick that foolishness out of her but the disdainful look on Andrew spoke volumes of anger. He had been quiet u til Audrey decided to explain.
Boss,I tried helping her pack but she slapped me and decided to kill me too,she said, still holding her neck
How dare….
Shut up Prisca, Andrew yelled.
Now pack your things and leave!
He turned and walked out the room without saying a word to Audrey who looked very disappointed and embarrassed that Andrew never thought about her. Her face dropped and her conceit sh9ot before me.
Oww, poor little thing, I know mumbled with a grin on my face. I loved that I caused her pain although I was about leaving.
Audrey stormed out of my sight, throwing her hands in rage,the clicking of her heels added a r hythm to his actions making me smirk.
My phone rang after she had left. I moved forward to check the caller ID but Lane’s name popped up on the scream.
How was I going to tell my good friend that I had been sacked from my job and I need one urgently, I contemplated, while putting my lower lips between my teeth.
I answered, her voice came sharp ithhrough the while she sobbed and panted on the phone.
Prisca, lane called out, stammering.
Your mom….. She faltered.
What happened to my momLane? Is she alright.
Anxiety gripped me a lump growing in my throat while tears streamed down my face with radiant speed.
Come to Livingtone hospital now Prisca, she added immediately afterwards sending shivers in my spine while I grew cold, my world cane crashing before me .at a fast pace.
I had to get to the hospital, I turned to see my colleagues staring me without muttering a word. A few run to my side after seeing the desperate look in my face.
I rushed out, stopped a taxi and sat in it. I bit the bottom of my lips wanting the driver to hurry up to the place making me squirm in the seat.
I turned around to look for a distraction or something to get me engaged. I got closer to the car door, stationing my body there for a while I took in deep breaths.Thoughts about my mom scared while I looked into the transparent glass.
As I sat there for a while, wondering what to do, my I felt my head had become too light and the world started spinning around me. I turned to call the driver but the weakness surging in me emsas intense. My words were in whispers. I stretched my hand to touch his shoulder but I fell in the seat, my eyes completely shut.
