"Girl,,,,I still can't believe you ran away from your matrimonial home because your husband fucked you
"Cassy...am not joking,it happened so fast,I wasn't thinking properly and we are not even on good talking terms
I couldn't face him,"so immediately I woke up the first thing that came to my mind was coming here....what should I do Cassy"We could start by talking about how good it was,I want details
"Am not telling anything,do you think he'll come get me,I asked
"He might,just chill out,,let's make breakfast and fill that belly up,you worked all night she said grinning
"Do you think he'll be angry...I was anxious
"Victoria chill out,Alex is smart he'll finger out you just freaked out
I tried relaxing but I couldn't,why did I overreact
I wasn't a kid anymore,maybe I should go back and Talk about everything with himAhh!!!!.....
I stayed at Casey's place all through the day and it was almost getting dark when I decided to go face my husband whom I slept with
The house was silent when I got in,I knew he wasn't back from work yet so I made dinner and waited for him at the dinning.......
It was almost 3 hours now and the food was getting cold
Was he not coming back home or was he with someone else... maybe he regrets it and doesn't want to see me
I didn't know what to think about anymore,why wasn't he home,I shouldn't have slept with him
I waited for him till past midnight and went to bed,I couldn't eat dinner because I felt bad,while laying down in bed....I recalled all I have been told about him and I couldn't hold the tears back,now am the pitiful wife crying over her husband
I cried myself to sleep
I was informed by the butler the next day,that Alex was on a business trip and wouldn't be back for some time
I didn't know whether to be happy or sad,I went about my daily activities like a living dead, hurriedly peeping down the window whenever I heard a car horn,,I was going crazy
It was two weeks now and he wasn't back,with no call or message,he didn't even care about what we shared,he touched me like he loved me,I felt it
Am such a fool,I was easily swoonedBy the third week,I felt nothing but anger towards him
He could stay where ever he was forever,I was better off without anyone messing with my emotionsI was doing some paperwork in my room when my door creaked
I taught I would be prepared to see him,I had rehearsed the emotionless conversation I was going to have with him, numerous times in my head but here I was tongue tied
He looked perfect while I was in misery
"Victoria......how have you been
Why does he always say my name like that
"You are back,how was your trip
"Why did you leave the house,he asked ignoring my question
"I left because I didn't want to see how cold you'll be afterwards
"How?,,I taught I showed you how much I adored you,through the unspoken touch of my hands and lips
"Then pardon me because I don't understand such adoration Alex,,I retorted angrily
"Then we'll have to do it a second time and let it sink in properly he said unbuttoning his shirt and coming closer to me
"Don't you dare,I whisper yelled
I was about to cry.. what was wrong with me,it shouldn't be this deep
"You've ignored me all our lives,walked over our friendship,hurt me repeated with your silence now and in the past and you think you can have me as you please,you've got me wrong Alex,that night was just another mistake
"Lier,,he growled looking into my eyes
You found pleasure in my arms,I was your first..the blood you left on the sheets where evidence enough,,you can never call that night a mistake,your body aches for me and so does mineBastard
"My body is just reacting to yours because am human and nothing else,get over yourself
I'll never forget how you always leave without an explanation,how you turn your back on those you claim to love
I'll never be another one of your women Alex I spatted"Princess....you are my wife and I didn't leave without an explanation now or then, you wouldn't have understood then,I was distant because I felt I was taking your life away from you,you were always so happy and I saw how hurt you were at our engagement"I couldn't face you knowing I was to be the reason for your problems,I gave you space to have your own life
"I taught you hated me
"I can never hate you Victoria,I taught you loathed me too
"You where my best friend Alex,I didn't hate you...you encouraged Nicole and her friends to bully me,you dated her despite knowing how she treats me
I was crying now
"I taught it was just girls bickering stuff and I never got with her,I told you before,the rumour was probably to get on your nerves,she was always paid attention by Max and I'll never be with a woman my friend had been with
"Why didn't you come get me at Casey's place
"I knew you were overwhelmed by everything,I didn't want to push you away,I'll never hurt you intentionally Victoria,you are a part of me since day one,I might be a dick sometimes but I love you
Oh my God
"You what ?
"Yes I love you,since I understood what being a man and woman was,from across the world I have loved you,with each passing day
There's nobody I'll rather be married to, you don't have to say it back now"I'll be contented with the fact you know how I feel about you and that you see me as a friend and husband,I'll do everything possible to get you to see I truly care about youI knew right then that I loved him too but I couldn't voice it out....this was too good to be true,I misunderstood him all along,my Alexander
"Make Love to me,,I asked abruptly overwhelmed by his confession
"Victoria.....are you......
"Yes,,I am sure
