Chapter 8

Zara’s POV

I replied to all his messages but when he talked about getting me lunch…I wanted to say yes in a hurry..but…. It will make him think I am so cheap and I have nothing to do so I am going to tell him,I will think about it and boom I went offline. Was I too rude to him? But I needed to act this way so he doesn’t get ahead of himself. I know what I will do, later on I will send him a text message telling him I was so busy that I couldn’t make time out for lunch but we can do dinner together. I smiled because I just arrived at the best decision. I brought out my bucket list again and went over it. I have written so many things but I need to do the personal one before I figure out how to tell Lucius about what we need to do, that’s one of the reasons I asked him to marry me in the first place.

If we are going to be setting up the christmas tree then I need to go shopping right now to get everything needed. I must enjoy this holiday to the fullest..

I didn’t waste any more time in my room getting dressed to leave the house with my uber rider waiting outside to take me to the shopping mall. I tried reaching out to Vanesa if she will be able to join me there but as expected she said to me in her tiny voice, “I’m so sorry sweetheart, I got so many orders at the restaurant so I need to function there but don’t worry yourself,we will go on a movie date.” I know it’s really difficult for her to leave her restaurant but I totally understand it all. I put on my ear piece as the ride started with my eyes closed listening to songs by Celine Dion about love. I was at the verge of crying..I danced with Leo while listening to this song in the past, what happened to him? The way he tells me he loves me, spun me around, holds my waist, he makes me feel so special. There was a connection of love between us and I thought it was going to last forever.

“But I am here now..” That voice….how did Lucius get into this car? This can’t be….Do not tell me that I am imagining all of this…

“You are not real so stop messing with my head..”

“Really? But you called me here..” He smiled…oh that annoying smile from him.. I need to stop seeing him….How did I get here?

“I never called you here so leave..” My eyes landed on his chest,he was shirtless again just like he was that morning. I watched him on the couch.

“I know you want to feel them again….Go ahead,I won’t bite..”

“Enough!!!” I yelled.

“Miss, are you okay?” I opened my eyes and noticed it was the driver inquiring from me and there was no Lucius anymore.

“Oh sorry about that, I’m fine.” I smiled but deep down, I don’t need such embarrassment again. I stopped playing the music and kept my phone and earpiece in my bag seeing we were already at the mall. I sent my money to the driver and got out of the car walking directly into the mall with a beaming smile on my face, “It time….”

I finally got everything I needed and it’s time to return home, tell my husband about granting my bucket list after having dinner with him, that will be easy… My next ride was already waiting for me so I gradually took my things to the car and returning with the last things,I ended up bumping into Leo and Teresa.

“Oh the b***h herself…” Teresa blurted out and I was ready not to go easy on her but seeing a lis that looked familiar got me heart broken. I picked it up with my hands shaking,...“Leo, how……..” I tried so hard to hold back my tears….. “How could you… do this to me?”

“ You made a copy of my bucket list and want to carry out what I dream of with you with her??”

I couldn’t hold it anymore, the tears finally showed signs of dropping… “ Are you stealing my life now after hurting me?” I expressed myself like a sad looking puppy that got thrown out by his owner on a lonely road. It was like he released a chopper to chop off my heart…

“That doesn’t belong to you.” He took it from me and she hugged him saying, “Baby,how on earth did you cope with her?”

“I’m glad I found you,it was hell being with her.” He kissed her cheek in my presence and I lost the hope to fight or attack. I was bleeding in my heart, I was still shaking like a child who had lost her bearing to life with no self defense or a back up plan.

“Now listen very well b***h,have you forgotten you showed your bucket list to me? I found it interesting, also, you planned to have them carried out with my man,so thank you for writing such a beautiful bucket list, christmas will be sweet for us,too bad you will be single and lonely …..also homeless on christmas day..” She sounded so sure and I didn’t know the time she brought out her phone and had livestream me.

“Yo lovers, wondering why your favourite streamer has not been online, well she is single as hell, no man can put hope with her single attitude,she even went as far as trying to beg my man to marry her…” They said a lot of things and I tried covering myself in shame. A part of me tells me I should be defending myself right now. She stole my man and everything from me after I had given her everything but why am I like a bird that has lost her feathers? Why am I so helpless?

I looked at Leo having the sparkles in his eyes,he looked so excited about everything taking place.

I slapped him saying, “I hate you…you will pay for this..you will f*****g pay for this.” I gripped him but he pushed me off to the floor, “Get your filthy hands off me, you are done for.”

Thinking it was all over for me,I am done being the favourite streamer everyone loves..I got on my feet with hot tears streaming from my eyes and looked at how satisfied they were.. My phone….. making so many vibrations from my bag, I guess they will be trolling me online now…it’s finally over for me.

“Dear wife, you kept me waiting too long so I came to fetch you myself.” That voice…..Am I bringing him here again with my imagination? He kissed my forehead with a smile and everyone murmured that was when I knew this was real..My husband is here but should I call him my hero who came to my rescue or the hero who just made things worse?

TBC.
