OSAGIEDE

I slapped him so hard across the face, I saw large red welts appear.

They looked angry.

Yes. My anger!

How could he think I would leave my husband and run away with him?

"Now, get out, and don't ever come close to me again. I warn you, I will inform Eyare of your many indiscretions, you can be sure of that." My hand stung from where I slapped him. I cradled it to my chest.

He looked crestfallen as he stood looking uncertainly at me for a bit, and then he nodded and shuffled out.

Did he think I would change my mind?

I was going to have a bath before this charade with Geoffrey, but I decided against it. I had to tell Eyare everything I ever had with him. Problem with that, is, I didn't know how Eyare would take it.

Better he heard it from me than someone else.

I sneaked a glance at Eseosa, she was still fast asleep. Thankfully, she'd slept throughout the whole altercation with Geoffrey.

That was a real blessing.

I left the room quickly in search of Eyare. He told me he was going to warm up some food for me, so I headed to the kitchen where I knew he would be, but when I peeped inside, he was not there.

I saw a tray with a plate of spaghetti on it. Steam rose from it and the aroma was scintillating. I immediately begin to salivate and was tempted to sit and eat, but I had to go look for Eyare. I had to get this off my chest once and for all and start a clean slate with him. A new beginning.

It was time for confessions!

I touched my stomach and smiled to myself.

This house was so big, that by the time I walked round the west pillar alone, I was already panting.

Thirty minutes had passed already, and I was yet to see Eyare. I called out his name, but only the resounding echo of my voice answered me.

Could he have gone out?

He wouldn't do so without letting me know, or would he?

I frowned and paused to lean against a column outside the compound. My breath was coming out shallowly. I reckon I should have taken my phone to call him, so I turned around to go back inside through the main door, making sure to walk at a slow pace, because I felt a stitch in my side. As I rounded the corner that led to the main entrance, I heard someone shouting my name.

That's strange!

I heard the shouting of my name again, this time closer than before. I recognised Geoffrey's voice, so I began quickening my steps to the main entrance, supposing he was there.

As I crossed the threshold of the foyer, I heard my name being shouted yet again, this time, much closer. I turned round to see Geoffrey carrying someone. Not just anyone, it was Eyare.

Panic clenched my insides and twisted, as my heart did a serious jig. I was shocked into inertia. My mouth hung open and I tried valiantly to wrap my head around what was going on. Geoffrey got to me with Eyare in his arms and I saw his eyes were closed, his head thrown back. I snapped out of my stupor and immediately held on to Eyare.
