Lara walked into the room she shared with Chris and plopped angrily on the bed. Chris had called her a spoilt brat, she shouldn't be crying but the betraying tears streamed down her face.

"Ugggghhh..." She screamed into a pillow.

He didn't care to check up on her, of course he wouldn't even if she was The Virgin Mary. Her stomach rumbled reminding her that she had skipped the lunch date she promised Brenda. Brenda!. She rushed to her phone that was on the lampstand and dialled her best friend's number. Brenda picked up on the second ring.

"What?, you disappointment". Brenda asked.

She chuckled at the new nickname "And I thought I was the love of your life just yesterday"

"Well today, you are a bunch of disappointments".

"Ouch., I'm really sorry for not calling earlier to cancel, I had a lot of paperwork to handle".

Short knocks resounded on the door, Lara smiled to herself; he has come to apologize "Come in"

A head popped in "Madam, food is ready".

Her face fell in disappointment, he will never apologise "It's okay, I'm coming".

The maid bowed and closed the door gently behind her, Lara shook her head to her best friend's voice.

"What happened?" Brenda asked then giggled to whatever her husband had said.

"Nothing but we could still see tomorrow".

"Disappointment, you better keep your promise, Sammy says hii and my regards to Chris D".

"No problem".

      His phone rang vibrating his butt, he reached for the phone behind him; it had Cecilia on the caller ID. He smiled and swiped his screen to answer.

"Hey!!!" He said with a smile tugging on his lips.
Her voice came through sounding sonorous "How are you doing?".

"I'm fine, you sound excited".

"Cause I am, dude.... your new hit is trending". She shrieked.

He chuckled softly "Seriously?".

"Do you have plans tomorrow night?".

The movements in the dining room got his attention, he looked up to see Lara placing some rice in her plate.

"I don't know but I'll call you when I'm free"

"No problem hun, oh!, Please greet the thing you call a wife".

He heaved a sigh "Babe...."

"What?, I can't wait for the year to be over so you can divorce her...."

Lara walked towards him in a cold glare with arms akimbo.
He interrupted her "I'll call you later".

"Aww, I love you babe". Ceicila sounded defeated.

"Love you too". He hung up and pushed his phone into his pocket not tearing his gaze from the fuming Lara.

"Who was that?". Lara asked folding her arms.

He chuckled as he stood picking his shoes in the process, "Are you jealous or simply curious?".

She laughed loudly clapping her hands in sync " I know it was Cecilia, tell her to up her game".

He lifted a brow "What do you mean?".

"Nothing" She replied in a singsong voice "Let's eat".

Hope you enjoyed this chapter.
I love you 😘.
