EVE

Chapter 6

The morgue is as quiet as a grave yard when we rushed in, both my dad and my now father in law or should I say ex father in law, followed the officer in charge, the place smell of medicine and disinfectant, that's why I really hate hospitals, never thought I'll be visiting one day.

I've never been sick in my life, maybe a little but I've never visited the hospital for once. Never thought my first time would be for the death of my supposedly dead husband.

After we were told our marriage has been arranged, mainly because my dad is a little bit of a douchebag and didn't really believe I'm capable of running the business myself, which thanks to the arranged marriage he planned, I still be the one heading because I know yomi like the back of my hand, he might be made CEO of the company but he'll give me free reign, and that's one of the reasons I didn't even out out a fight,and because I've been in love with him already, and we were already going out, but it just in secret. So after we got the news we just drove out to meet our pastor two weeks before he went to L.A to tie the knot in secret, and I became his wife and he my husband, mainly because he doesn't like crowds same as I.

After we got the terrible news about his accident, I was really devastated and I really couldn't believe I was angry at him that night, fuck I should have made him go back. I had no choice I had to tell our families that we were already married.

According to them Abayomi was burnt beyond recognition, we were just ask to be here to identify some possession of his, so he could be put to rest.

We met the doctor in charge who introduced himself and led us to were he lay, damn I couldn't even recognize anything, we were shown some of his possessions found with him on the scene, like his phone,our engaged ring, cuff links, and a piece of fabric that wasn't yet burned off. But one thing was Missing our wedding ring, it's a really cheap gold ring our initials written at the underside, when I asked them I was told they found nothing.

But I've got a sinking feeling that my husband is alive.

***********************************************************

I've been standing in front of Eve's office for that than 30 minutes z trying to find the courage to enter, it's not like am afraid of her per say since I've been told she wouldn't touch an hair on my head, but she's still a predator and that fear instinct is still embedded.

I summon the courage and knock, no answer, I repeated twice, and still no answer, I tried opening it and it opened, I entered half-heartedly.

Her office is not to small, and the hard wood desk which am guess would cost a fortune is overflowing with papers, files and journals and she what not. The office is as clear because of the floor to ceiling windows.

I moved towards the desk and lo and behold, a smartphone, I saw a smartphone on her desk. I took it in a rush and unlock it, no password, lucky me, type my wife's number, and was about to call when my memory hugged.

What would happen if I do call her, it's not like she can come over, and even if she did come over, what would she do, and with that I call her.

She picked on the first ring and her sweet commanding voice came in the phone.

"Hello, who's this?" She asked

"Babe"

"YOMI!!, Fuck is that you?, Where the hell have you been?, They say you died, fuckkkk" she rambled

"Calm down babe, just listen I've been kidnapped, and am on an island on the Pacific, don't know the specific one, just get help please" I said to her quickly, I have this growing connection with Eve but she still kidnapped me, she like didn't except me too be to all smiles and happy and cooperative with her, I need to go home to my wife.
