John
The new day finds me in my office. I woke up at 6am next to Eirina. Last night we had fun playing monopoly. I had so many years to play such a game... I slept with her in her bed. We didn’t have s*x - I don’t want to scary her. I believe she should choose and invite me to her bed. But I think with her fathers illness and the publication of her gynecological issues, she needed a friend by her side.
A friend.
What am I? I friend? A lover? Someone who will sign the divorce papers in a year? I don’t know... and I don’t know how to process with her...
My phone rings
“Hertz”
“We found him. He is in your conference room” my man says and I am really getting angry... In about a minute I am going to meet the bastard who caused so much pain to my wife...
I enter the conference room and I see two of my men, Gas, and this Antony. He sits in a chair and he looks... not well... he must have been beaten off... we will have fun. I sit across him, without saying anything. He looks back at me. His eyes are a little worried
“Do you know who I am?” I ask him
“Yes”
“Do you know how much pain have you cost to my wife?”
“Yes”
“Why you go to newspapers?”
“Money. I needed money.”
“I could give you money!! I could give you anything you want”
“She had me.”
“She...?”
“A woman. I don’t know her by person. I have never met her. She trapped me. I had s*x with a p********e. She recorded it. She said that if I didn’t find these records she would sent the video to my wife...I... I am sorry...”
I look at him with no emotions. How could this woman be? A reporter? A paparazzi? A business enemy?
“I want all your records. You will tell my men everything you know about her. You will give us all your proofs. And wish my wife doesn’t want to press charges against you.
I leave for my office. I tell my secretary to call my next appointment.
Eirina
My secretary enters my office.
“Big boss on the phone” she says... I sign and pick up the phone
“Antony... good morning”
“Eirina darling! It’s so good to hear you! How is your father?”
“He is resting... what’s up?” I am already bored and I want to close the phone
“Honey... we received a mail... from an unknown sender... someone accused you for unprofessional behaviour.”
“I beg your pardon?” I sit and I hear him really careful now
“It says that your law degree is fake. That you gained your position in the firm with s*x. They accuse you are a hooker. That you slept with the CEO”
I can’t believe my ears!!!
“What the f**k Antony!!! You know me, I worked really hard to be here!”
“I know Eirina... but you know the procedure... we have to investigate... and these days you are everywhere in the news about your wedding and your health records...”
“Yeah... I know...”
“I am so sorry Eirina.... but you have to step down until everything is clear...”
I don’t say anything and just close the phone! For god’s sake! What is going on here??? Who sent this mail accusing me??? I am soooo angry. I grab my things and leave the office... I tell my secretary that I won’t come back for some days and leave...
John
I arrive at the cottage late at noon. A maid informs me that my wife came early today back at home and she is all day locked at her apartments. I head to her room... I knock the door and I don’t receive an answer
“Eirina?” I don’t receive an answer again and try the lock. The door is unlocked. I enter the room and I see Eirina doing yoga.
“Hey...” I say but she doesn’t talk...
“They informed me that you didn’t eat anything all day...”
She stops the adductors and she looks at me
“Yeah, of course... they reported you about your fake wife!”
“Nobody reports me Eirina... they just inform me... they are worried... you just have to eat.” She pulls her hair back
“Why you even bother John? Pretend I am not here at all...”
“Of course you are here! We can’t do that!”
“That’s the point! I don’t even what to be here! My life is a mess from the day you came into my office!” She yells and I am all ears... why she even looks so mad?
“We are going to stay married for a year! Don’t even bother try anything else!”
“Of course not! You got me! But look what I have lost!!! Everyone in UK, maybe and in the globe, knows that I lost my baby, my dad is at the hospital and now... now I don’t even have job! For gods sake!” She says and she starts undress... I can’t take my eyes of her... but... hold on a minute... what did she say? She lost her job?
“What do you mean by that? You lost your job?” Now she is in her underwear... she puts her hands by her side...
“They don’t want me there for some days... someone sent an email... they accuse me that I am a fake advocate... and a hooker” she finally stares at me... “come on John... someone else has the same opinion with you about me...”
I breath heavily...
“You are not a hooker... you are my beautiful wife and right now I wanna f**k you... hard...”
