1645 Words
"GOOD MORNING," she gently caressed my chest.
"Get dressed so that someone doesn't catch up with us." I command while putting on my own clothes.
"What are you? You don't have a wife now, isn't she out of town?" Come to me holding my hand.
"What do you need?"
"Money." This is a direct answer.
"Wait, I'll give you the check."
"Money from your grandmother's inheritance. We did it because you want to have children, didn't we?"
"But it's not from you, my wife herself."
"Come on Zayn, she really doesn't want to have children. Why you still hope she will give you?"
"What now if I lose my inheritance it's important that it's my first and last infidelity to my wife."
"But I need money, please help me." Its face is sad.
"You don't have to. I won't give it to you then you can leave and not show up."
"What ?!"
"How much do you need? one, two or three million?"
"Are you crazy? something happened to us and you were the first."
"So, what do you want to do?" I was irritable constantly.
"Hold me accountable."
"It's impossible that you want that because I'm married."
"Secretly, you can make me other woman."
"Do you think I'm hitting on people like you? All right, I'll make five million. Just shut up." I rushed out and took a shower.
I CALL Roselle but she doesn’t answer.
"I'm leaving," she carried his bag.
"Here's five million. Maybe you can treat your father at an expensive hospital to make sure you don't come back to cause trouble."
Hovered carefully holding the check, "This is a big deal, thank you."
I watched her come out of the house. I don't want it to happen again and I don't want to see her again. I hope she doesn't come back to mess up my life with my wife.
"SERIOUSLY?" Peps couldn't believe my story about Jayda.
"When was I kidding?"
"Problem 'cause you did, Zayn."
"I already gave money and maybe that's enough for her to keep quiet."
It stood up as if worried, "Isn't that, what I'm worried about what if happened to you paid off?"
"I hope not." I was worried.
"I hope not but what if it happens we're afraid of?"
"How do I do?"
"How can you explain to Roselle that you cheated on her and that it made you pregnant."
"Ahh, I don't want to think about the thing that hasn't happened yet then she can't get pregnant."
"I just have to be ready for you. I don't want you to be like me. It's not that I'm sorry that Pauline came into my life, but of course someone really disappeared because of my weakness."
"I know this is a mistake but I don't want to think that she will come back because we have a baby in her womb."
"Tell Cedric about it."
"I do not want."
"You'll be his best friend when you find out about this."
"Cedric will get angry and you know it's scary to get angry."
"It's good that you say it's your fault right away since your wife and I are close no matter how we can help you."
"Right now I don't want to think about it. Let's wait a few months when she comes back. I know and I hope not."
"In order for you to get back at your wife follow her, wherever she is now."
"I have a plan but she don't want to answer my calls."
"Keep trying but if she doesn't come home do everything to make up for it. If you can don't fight."
In case Jayda doesn't come back I'll get Roselle back. I will take better care of her until I can convince her that we can have children. It's not hard to please my wife, maybe I'm just really mad when arguing with her especially if I want to be immediately obeyed.
"Sir, today ma'am Roselle is coming."
"Thanks, please get these I signed."
"Yes sir. Ah, sir, a woman came here earlier but left immediately."
"Who ??"
"I didn't see they just told me Mariz."
"Who's Mariz?"
"We're just a new employee, maybe she's been around for a month."
"Ah okay,"
"Do you want me to ask Mariz who is looking for you?"
"Don't think it doesn't matter that she went because you said to leave right away."
My secretary nodded before leaving. I still have a few hours to rest and then go straight to the airport. After finishing work here in the office I went to the flower shop to pick flowers to give to my wife then I just waited for her arrival at the airport.
"Honey!" She approached me a little earlier. She immediately hugged me tightly and kissed me on the lips.
"Do you expect me to meet you?"
"No, that's why I was surprised to see you here. Is that for me?" Its snout on the flower I was holding then reached for it.
"I'm sorry,"
"Thank you, honey."
"Let's eat first before going to work."
"Who said we're going to work? I have a month's leave so we have to continue our vacation."
"R-really ??"
"Maldives here we come!" She kissed me on the lips. The former Roselle is back, sweet and caring. I feel even more guilty about what happened.
We went home first to fix things.
"I've been wandering around here at home for a while. Why didn't I even notice Jayda at the grocery store?" I was stunned at packing the clothes in the suitcase.
"She left last week."
"Leave? Why?" I was even more nervous when it made my eyes stare. I don't want her to notice me doing this.
"There's an emergency at their house, they say they need someone to take care of their father."
"It's a pity I still like her. You know the feeling that I'm so relieved for her." I took a deep breath as I walked away.
"That's right, his priority is to take care of the parent."
"How much money did you give?"
"It's just enough how long she's been with us."
"You mean you just gave her a small amount?"
"Y-yes,"
"Why should you give so little we have somehow helped his family."
"Ashamed to receive such a large amount let her."
We opened the cabinet, "If there's a chance she'll come back I'll accept again often just to find someone I can trust."
I gripped the zipper of the suitcase tightly. She was wrong to talk about Jayda because she looked like money, abused my weakness and my desire to have children. I just hope nothing happens so that what happened will remain a secret until the end.
"Honey, what are you thinking?"
"Huh?"
"I've been here word for word before."
"I'm sorry, I was just thinking about what we'll do first when it comes to the Maldives."
"Swimming, mukbang, what else? Anything as long as we can make the most of my leave."
"Yeah, I'll make sure we're both happy." I hugged and kissed her on the lips.
When I missed her so much I glued it to the wall while reclaiming the lip.
"Is there still time?" I was curious with mixed passion.
"Uhm, I think we'll be late for the flight if we do what you plan."
"A quick one."
"But ---" I claimed the lip again and after a while my hand landed on the part of his body.
"Uhmm ... honeeyy .... uhmmm ..." It growled as if giving up.
"Fast but I'll make sure you enjoy it." I lay down on the bed at the same time.
I started kissing her neck until my lips dropped to her belly and this is what I miss most of all I can feel love for her.
She NEVER lost his smile from the time we were still at home until we arrived at the airport. I have once again given my wife an unforgettable experience and as a husband. I can be proud of myself. Maybe I should first avoid forcing her to do what she wants then it doesn't matter to me if I don't get an inheritance what is important we will be together forever.
"Someone will meet us at the airport with that in the package that Mommy availed." I explain as she focuses on the laptop.
"All right,"
"Mom took a house near the beach, is it okay with you?"
"That could be fun."
"Sleep while you're in the airplane because I'll make you tired for a month, hehe." I whispered mischievously.
"You're really annoying." My face was slapped.
“Let’s make the most of it,” I couldn’t hide the excitement to be with her. It seems like we haven't traveled for a few months so maybe this is how my heart gets so excited.
"We'll really try until we're bored and ready to go home." I think she laughed louder because some people looked at us.
"Pssst, just slow down so they don't think they're tickling you there." I grinned.
"Maybe you're what others are thinking."
"Ehem,"
"Hey, make some noise."
I looked around.
"Honey, I'm hanging on." I bite more.
"Stop that we're on the plane." adjust to seating.
"You know, I'm not used to fast aren't you and we take ten rounds."
"What ten?" Irritable.
"About nine."
"Are you crazy?"
"Not about seven really,"
"You're abnormal,"
"Yes, it's only about five rounds, what's that, let's continue."
"We're on the plane, can't your pet wait?" The words were whispered to me.
"In comfort room ..."
"There are many people." delicate pinch made reason to ouch me.
"Please, promise at least one round."
She also did nothing to my awkwardness. She sighed as if angry then started to stand up and slapped me a very hard.
