  Albert left his room to go talk to Andrew because he desperately needs to talk to him about the situation.
 
 
  "Hey, I need to talk to you"He enters Andrew's room uninvited, making Andrew flinch a little.
 
 
  "Come on brother,You scared the shit out of me" Andrew held his chest panting a little at the sudden invasion of his room.
 
 
  "I am so sorry about that, but I desperately need your advice on something"Albert blurted out sitting on Andrew's bed.
 
 
  Andrew left his desk to go sit beside his brother.
 
 
  "Should I be worried?" He asks with a concerned tone.
 
 
 
  Albert sigh... "I did try to take your advice about the whole Tracy situation and the engagement"He explains.
 
 
  "Oh! I totally forgot, how did the lunch date go?"Andrew excitedly asked."Did you do exactly as I told you to do" he added with a grin on his face.
 
 
  "Didn't you hear what I said, I didn't go along with your plan. I just couldn't"Albert admits with a disappointed tone.
 
 
  "Don't tell me you suddenly have feelings for her?"Andrew asks as he raises his eyebrows.
 
 
  "Of course not,"Albert scoffs.
 
  "Then what was the problem?"Andrew asked with confusion.
 
 
  "I just couldn't hurt her feelings,She is my childhood bestie and it will be wrong for me to do her dirty knowing how innocent she is"Albert explained standing up from the bed.
 
 
  Andrew couldn't understand what his brother was diving at with this.
 
 
  "So why do you need my advice then? You clearly are going to get married to her anyways if you keeps up with this"Andrew annoyingly pointed out
 
 
  "I need your advice because of what Tracy had told me when I said we should cancel the marriage"Albert begins.
 
 
  "Obviously she will say you shouldn't call the marriage off and she is your childhood bestie.. blah, blah, blah"Andrew cuts him off mockingingly.
 
 
 
  "I am glad you said this and now I am certain that Tracy has changed a lot. I think I should be worried about this"Albert panicked, making Andrew a bit confused.
 
 
  "She said something I never thought any woman would ever tell me with my years of staying on this earth," he added, making Andrew more curious.
 
 
 
  "Okay now I am curious about this. What did she say?" He asks with curiosity.
 
 
  "She wants us to have an open marriage" he blurted out.
 
 
  "What!" Andrew yells in shock. "Did she really say that?" He asks with a confused tone, Albert nods "she is one crazy woman. What did you say? How did you respond to it?" He flooded him with questions.
 
 
  "Well, I told her that I was going to think about it. But she didn't let me, she wanted me to agree to it and I did,"Albert admits.
 
 
  "You shouldn't have agreed to it bro. It is all so messed up, you will get to have fun with other women and she also will have fun with other men. Isn't that crazy" Andrew pointed out, feeling confused with the whole situation.
 
 
 
  Albert is perplexed, he doesn't know what to think about this anymore.
 
 
 
  "I know it sounds bad and I am also against the idea. But I thought about it and that's the only way for me to have freedom in this whole thing"Albert explains ruffling his hair with frustration
 
 
  "Listen! You don't get what I am trying to say. You mean you will be okay with your wife fucking other men in the relationship"Andrew scoffs.
 
 
  "You don't have to put it that way"Albert mutters gazing down.
 
 
  "That's how it is, brother. It only means she is also not a faithful person"He uttered with a half laugh
 
 
  "Two unfaithful people in a marriage and they are both aware of their unfaithfulness.This seems fun"Andrew laughed out loudly. Albert is so pissed with the fact that his brother is making fun of him.
 
 
  "Are you trying to make fun of me?"Albert time was laced with anger.
 
 
  "Calm down,I wasn't trying to make fun of you, it just seems weird to me and anyone who hears about it"Andrew explains.
 
 
  "You can't say a word to anyone"He warns Andrew.
 
 
  "I wish I didn't know myself,"Andrew mutters.
 
 
  "This is all just so fucked up right now!" Albert almost pulled his hair out of his scalp.
 
 
  "Take it easy brother, it is too early for you to go bald"Andrew jokingly uttered with a half laugh. "If that's the only way for you to get your freedom, then it won't be a problem then" he added.
 
 
  "I guess so, you can go back to what you were doing"Albert was about to leave the room when he noticed the broken glass on the floor.
 
 
 
  "You should be careful not to step on this,"Albert says, pointing towards the piece of glass on the floor.
 
 
  "I guess she was too mesmerised by my handsome face, she couldn't do her job properly"Andrew sneered with a smirk on his face.
 
 
  "What are you talking about?" Albert asks with confusion.
 
 
  "It's nothing, it is just the new housekeeper"Andrew admits as he collects the piece of glass from Albert.
 
  Albert was a little bit annoyed knowing that the housekeeper was in here with Andrew.
 
 
  "What happened between you two?" He asks with a faint smile.
 
  "Nothing really, I am just trying to have some fun" he uttered with a grin on his face.
 
 
  "Okay then, I will leave you to your fun"Albert utters with a half smile before leaving his room.
 
 
  Albert hates the fact that Andrew is finding an interest with the new housekeeper. But he can't stop him because he can do whatever he wants but he just can't help but think about the new housekeeper and how much he lust for her.
 
 
 
 
  'I just want this day to just fucking come to an end' Annabel says out loud. Annabel couldn't concentrate on work and she blames it on Sir Andrew, she can't get him off her fucking mind and it was slowly driving her crazy.
 
 
  "What the hell!" Mrs Jones yells as soon as Annabel uses bleached where she wasn't supposed to use it on. "You have completely ruined it"She pointed out with an annoyed tone.
 
 
  "I am so sorry, I had no idea that I used bleach. I thought it was a liquid soap"Annabel apologises.
 
 
 
 
  "I think you should call it a day for today, you are clearly not here and I will get angrier if you stay here"Mrs Jones muttered trying to calm herself.
 
  "I'm so...
 
  "Just leave please!"She cuts Annabel off."Before you leave, give this to sir Albert, I will have gone myself but I need to get rid of this mess" she added.
 
 
  Annabel took the glass cup from her and hurried to sir Albert's room. She knocked and he immediately told her to come in.
 
 
  Albert was massaging his tempo when Annabel came in, she dropped the glass on the table and was about to leave before uttering a word.
 
 
  "Do I make you feel that uncomfortable?" Albert suddenly asked, making Annabel halt in her tracks.
 
 
 
  "You didn't even say anything,"Albert pointed out with a sad tone.
 
 
 
  "You seem to be worried about something and I don't want to add to your stress with my voice"Annabel utters calmly.
 
 
  "What happened between my brother and you?" He blurted out, Annabel's eyes widened but she immediately recovered.
 
 
  'What the fuck did he tell him' she whispers to herself.
 
 
  "Did something really happen between you two?" He asks again.
 
 
  "I don't understand what you are trying to say sir" she acted confused.
 
 
  "Please turn to look at me" he frowns ,she obeyed and turned but she lowered her gaze.
 
  "You are a married woman and you shouldn't be caught up with any man's problem" he says with a little bit of irritation.
 
 
  "I know I am married and I haven't forgotten that so you don't need to worry"Annabel utters with a calm tone.
 
 
  "My brother can be a handful sometimes, so you need to keep your distance from him" he warns her.
 
 
  "I have my own dignity and self respect, I won't disrespect my husband in any way"Annabel assures with a faint smile.
 
 
  "I am glad to know that you honour your marriage and aren't trying to be in an open relationship" he mutters with a low tone.
 
 
  Annabel doesn't understand what he meant by that but she decided not to ask him.
 
  "I will be leaving now" she announced.
 
  "You are allowed to leave when I am done with the tea" he ordered. Annabel had no other choice but to stay with him.
 
 
  "Why did you decide to get married this early?" He asked out of curiosity.
 
 
  "It felt like the right thing to do," she replies immediately.
 
 
  "And your parents allowed it"
 
 
  "I am an orphan, my parents are dead"She quickly cut him off with a straightforward voice.
 
 
  "I am so sorry to hear about that," he apologised with a sad tone.
 
 
 
  "It's okay sir"Annabel uttered with a faint smile.
 
  "When will your husband come to visit?" He asks with curiosity.
 
 
  "Well... he.. will" she stammered.
 
 
  "That doesn't seem convincing," he says, giving her a suspicious look.
 
 
  "Well..." the knock on the door diverted their attention.
