MANIC

Akilah abruptly stopped in the middle of untying his wrists. He looked at her like what the hell now and before he could ask she started pacing back amd forth mumbling to herself while scratching her head.

" No.No. No"

" W-what?"

Tor finally entertained the thought that she might have some mental health issues when she turned to him as if she was startled by his presence. She looked like she had forgotten he was present.

" Keke babe, are you okay?"

" Yeah I'm fine."

" Okay now untie me_ so we can continue."

" You love me, don't you?"

She smiled lovingly at him while she held the hand she was about to untie earlier.

" Yes I_I love you."

" No. No you hesitated, you're lying to me."

Yeah she is crazy, he thought. Just a minute ago she was all loving and in less than a second she turned into a motherfucken'  monster no Minaj.

" Keke, I did not mean to sound hesitant but my arms are really tired. I do love you, you're my day one how can I not love you?."

" Then why did you get me locked up and let me stay in that hell hole. Do you know how hard it is in there. That shit that happens on that American  orange show or South Africa's lockdown show, that's nothing. I was in hell and you left me there!"

" I'm sorry Keke but the police got involved and I could not risk the image of our business, you understand don't you? It would mess with our money."

" You only care about money?"

" No but I know how much you've sacrificed for us to have money, live comfortably-"

" Yeah...."

Her reply was hesitant as she starred at him, a lot was going through her head and she stood there thinking without realising the sun was slowly rising.

" .... but you tried to divorce me?"

Being a businessman had taught him how to think on his feet but he was running out of patience with her.

" I was ashamed. After everything that happened and you landing in prison because of me, I thought that you wouldn't want to be with me anymore. "

" Baby I would never. Tor don't you understand that I love you and everything I did was for you. We said till death do us part and I meant it."

" What are you saying?"

" I'm saying that we're never ever divorcing, I will die for you and with you Tor. I came here to kill you and I'm not leaving till I do but first I want to make love to you for the last time."

Akilah was going to kill him and he would never get to see his children grow or get to watch Amara walk down the isle on their wedding night.  Akilah had done a lot of things to him and to their relationship but he always forgave her thinking that it was the right thing to do as a man but this is where it led him to. He closed his eyes in that moment and said a little prayer to the all mighty begging him to get him out of this predicament....

"Why are you not hard? Oh my _ are you thinking about that bitch!"

This is how I die, he thought as she whipped him repeatedly.
