#AMAHLE
The following morning, I woke up early as possible and wore a gown and went to prepare us breakfast, something light and romantic ish for my husband while he was sleeping. It was 5am, I got into the Kitchen and Karen was on the phone and she seemed angry; she cut the call and banged the phone on the kitchen counter.
Her: I didn't see you there. Morning
Me: morning babe. Is everything ok?
Her: everything is fine. Thanks again for letting me sleep here
Me: you always welcome here babe
I started with breakfast.
Me: Karen you know you can always talk to me right?
Her: I know friend. It's just that I can't stop thinking about what Siya said, she was right. I am to blame for our marriage falling apart, I should have never entertained Aluncedo from the very first attempt he made.
Me: Karen no don't do this to yourself, you know how Siya can get
Her: but she's right Amahle. There's no sugar coating this. I can't plant an apple tree and then get mad when apples grow on it. Aluncedo just called me to tell me that he loves me and he wants to be with me and that Tatiana is a mistake
Me: I know that this is out of the blue and will probably make you mad but would it be really such a bad idea to give him a real chance?
Her: what? Am...
Me: hear me out please. You have tried to stay away from my brother but you two somewhat end up together someway somehow. You love my brother, never stopped loving him and same goes for him too; he never stopped loving you. All these girls have been nothing but a distraction to him to get over you but here we are almost 10 years later and he is still not over you. I don't know how you looking at this but to me it seems like true love. So many times you've tried to get away from him but you two always end up together, it's been said that what's meant for you always finds its way back to you
Her: and where would that leave my marriage?
Me: I don't know. I was just putting it out there.
With that I walked with a tray of pancakes with syrup and 2 glasses of juice, and I scooped up some of yesterday's dessert and put it in a bowl then went up to my room to my husband who was still sleeping, I guess he was drained from last night and I don't blame him. I set the tray on my side and woke him up.
Him: 5 more minutes
Me: come on Nuni wake up
He sucked it up and sat up.
Him: I'm up
I took the tray and placed it on top of him
Me: I made us breakfast
Him: looks yum
We ate and we finished everything then I put the tray on the table in our room and went to join him in bed
Me: let's stay in the whole day today
Him: what?
Me: let's call the office and cancel all meetings
Him: are you sure?
Me: yes, I'm sure. Let's celebrate yesterday properly while we still have the place to ourselves
I said kissing him on the lips and making my way down to his neck. He giggled
Him: you are so bad Mrs Bess
Me: I know Mr Bess. So?
Him: fine let's stay in. I have to call first
Me: you'll call later
