The Unfair Game

The Unfair Game 8

Sunday morning, Anessa woke up to pain all over her body. Her eyes barely open because of her aching face, a single tear fell from her eyes as she sat up. She noticed she was alone and was happy about it becasue right now she is hating Marcel. She made it to the bathroom.

She stared at her bruise face in the mirror and began to cry. Never in her life she would think Marcel would hit her, he was slowly drifting her away when he spend little time with her but she never thought of cheating on him. Khalil is a nice guy, an attractive one too but she just enjoy his company and another person to talk to other than her friends and Marcel.

After a hour of painful showering, she toweled herself then entered her closet. She got dress in a blue shorts and grey tshirt. She was staying in her room all day because she don't want anyone to see her like this.

"Good morning beautiful" Marcel greeted,  startling her.

Anessa looked at him but didn't response, she climbed on the bed and reached for her phone and switched it back on. Marcel climbed on the bed next to her but she ignored him.

"I am sorry for putting my hands on you beautiful, I don't know what came over me.... please forgive me" he said, in his voice there were hint of regrets but Anessa didn't see that.

"I've forgive you too many times, you hit me for no reasons... I have never do you wrong, never. I have always love you, respect you and care for you and this is what I get from you.... bruises and pain all over my body" Anessa cried.

"You went out with a guy, that pissed me off....

"That didn't give you a reason to hit me!" She shouted but winced when her throat hurts.

"I know and I am sorry. I will never put my hands
on you again" he apologies but Anessa thought it wasn't sincere enough.

"I'm sure you're sorry and you will be sorry again.... I don't deserve this, none of this" Anessa slide down on the bed, turning her back and began to cry.

Marcel hugged her but she pulled away from him, she is hating him right now and wish he could just leave her alone like the times he always do.

Monday morning, Anessa made sure her make up cover the black mark on her cheek before she head out.  She was still feeling pain but not like yesterday. She entered the building with employees greeting her nicely and she greets back. They all love her because she safe their jobs from Marcel alot of times. She entered the private elevator that only, she, Marcel, Matthew and their assitance use. Just as the door"s about to close Matthew embarked.

"Good morning Anessa" Matthew greeted cheerfully as usual.

"Good morning Matthew" Anessa answered dryly.

"You seems upset, is it because I won't tell you about Mar....

"Matthew I really don't want to talk about Macel right now please" she told him.

"Did he do something to you?" Matthew asked, he knows Marcel's temper and what he can do.

The elevator came to a halt. Anessa kept her head down with tears came into her eyes.  They walked off but Matthew stand infront of her waiting on her to reply.

"No he didn't do anything" she answered lowly then quickly walked away. Marcel warned her not to tell anyone about what happened Saturday night because that would ruin his image.

After she settled her things in her office, she left to the floor where Khalil room is located. She walked down the hall, when she reached at his room door, she rang the buzzer. Khalil quickly put away his stuff out of eyes reach then head to the door, his eyes glows when she walked in his room.
