Layla's POV
Few months passed and I felt alot of guilt.I don't know how but I ended up liking ceasar.It was so wrong of me, because I am a married woman and I love my husband.
I couldn't help but be over affectionate towards Ali.He also did the same for some odd reason,but I didn't focus on that.
The guilt was killing me inside.All Ali did was love me and take care of me, and here I was betraying him.
No impossible,I have to make things right.Today ceasar came by.
Layla:am glad you are here.
Ceasar:so wagered to see me?
Layla:look,I have transferred you to another therapist.
Ceasar:why?
Layla: I don't think it's a good idea working together,am sorry.
Ceasar:what is this about?
Layla:look,you are a male,am not really supposed to work with males.There wasn't any therapist left that was why I was picked,but now i have been given the chance to swap.
Ceasar:why do you want to swap (he said getting up.He looked calm but his eyes told a different story)
Layla:I see how you look at me, it's not professional.
Ceasar: and how do you know that? Aren't you supposed to lower your gaze?
(I became silent.He walked over to me,I looked down)
Ceasar:why are you silent?
Layla: please (he kicked my chair, making me face him.He then leaned in cornering me with both hands.I couldn't help the tears that filled my eyes.His eyes softened at this)
Layla: I am a married woman.(He froze starring at me.I stared back this time,I couldn't help but see the pain in his eyes.He then reacted to the tear falling down my face.He used his finger to wipe my tears )
I quickly pulled away from his touch even though it sent tingles to my body.
Ceasar:I understand.(he pulled away and walked out.I couldn't help but cry.How did I end up falling for him.)
After work ,I couldn't help but ran home to Ali,but j couldn't find him.I suddenly bumped into him.He had just come out of hikimah's room.
His clothes were ruffled,so was his hair and he looked nervous.
Layla: what are you doing in there?
Ali:I was playing with binta.
Layla: okay.
Ali: what's wrong?(I couldn't help but hug him.I just cried) don't cry dear, what's wrong.
Layla: I just need to hug you, that's all.
(He brought me to our room and I soon calmed down,I decided to tell him the truth)
Ali:how did this happen!
(He said angrily)
Layla:I don't know how I started liking him.Please Ali believe me,I have cut ties with him,I love only you.
Ali :I don't know if I can even trust you anymore.
Layla: don't say that Ali,I am here telling you the truth,you can trust me.
Ali:but you interest in another man Layla,you have really hurt me and cheated me.
Layla:am sorry Ali, please forgive me.
Ali:I don't know if I can.(he walked off.)
