Chapter 40 - VINCE GUEST

When he did wake up, he saw a breakfast tray by his bed and she wasn't lying on the sofa, and the room was a bit too quiet.

"Sidney, where are you?" Vince calls as he went to the closet room searching for her, seeing a few pieces of her clothes scattered on the floor. Picking it up, hating to see his closet room untidy.

Thinking, 'Now that she returns home on her own, she must have accepted what had happened and made peace within.

While taking up the last few pieces of clothes Vince felt someone hold his hand. "Darling, what. are you doing?"

Straightening up asking, "What are you doing here Chrystal? Get out of my room now?" Vince looks around becoming worried, hoping Sidney would not come and see Chrystal in his closet room.

Because she might just take up herself and leave for good, then when GP hears and get sick that will be the end of everything, and all the sacrifice he made will be for nothing.

"Darling, I came to see you; it's been almost three weeks and I haven't heard anything from you. I tried calling Vanda, but she was not answering."

"Look, Chrystal, you are exaggerating, we now completed two weeks and I need some space. And for your information Vanda, is away for a few days, and you have to go now, things are complicated as it is, and I don't want any more drama?"

"Sweetheart, we are alone, so what is the fuss all about?" Hearing Aunty Myrtle saying his wife leave over a week and a half she decided to visit.

Hearing the person clear their throat, Vince looks at Chrystal and then turns around to see Sidney was looking at both of them.

Moving Chrystal's hand from around his waist, thinking, 'This is what he didn't want in the first place, now who knows what she must be thinking, and what she might do?'

Saying to her, "I was looking for you and thanks for breakfast, have you eaten already?"

Ignoring his question saying, "I see we have a guest."

When Chrystal looks at her, thinking, 'From what Aunty Myrtle said I thought she left, so when did she return? "Vince, isn't she the same person we met at the hall?"

Vince glance at Chrystal, 'Knowing she already knew that being at the wedding,' looking at Sidney then replies, "Yes, she is the owner and you know she is my wife."

"Excuse me, I need some privacy please, "

Noticing in her hand, she was holding a bible and a small purse, 'Did she go to church this morning, but today is Monday?'

"Vince, why is she here? That's not the person you got married to?"

"Chrystal, I just told you she is my wife, so kindly stay quiet," leading her out so Sidney could change.

"Vince, answer me?"

"Look, now is neither the time, nor the place, and what the hell you want to know that for? you had the first opportunity to say yes."

"What's going on with you? I told you I am sorry so why are you acting as if this is all my fault?"

"Look, she is the person GP choose for me, so stop all the questions, as you know GP, is not well and I have other things to deal with."

Seeing Sidney had a hand purse and she was dressed in a blue jeans and a lovely white top with an open front with gold buttons. Her sandal was black and flat, wondering where she was going? 'Oh God, not again. "Sidney, where are you going?"

"I see you are busy, so I am going to visit my Mom for a few hours." Wanting to say to him, 'You will have sufficient time to do whatever you want,' but she continues walking.

Hearing him saying, "Sidney just give m a few minutes and I will drop you."

"Don't bother, I need a clear head and want to be alone to think if you don't mind." When Chrystal said, "Now you don't have to worry Vince we are left alone."

"Are you so stupid Chrystal, if GP, sees her going alone, he will want to know why? Do you expect me to say I was entertaining you?"

Hearing GP call, "Now look what you have done, why did you have to come to my room and complicate things more than it is already?" Walking outside his room, "GP, you called me?"

"Yes, I see Sidney just leaving, when did she return home, and is she unwell?"

"She returns late last night GP, and she is okay."

"Chrystal, my dear, I see you are here as well?"

"I came to meet Vanda, only Vince told me, she is away for a few days."

"Yes, but I hope you know that Vince is no longer single, and I will appreciate it very much if you can stop going to his room, he has a wife now and they will need their privacy."

"Sorry GP, you are right, I don't want to complicate things more than it is already complicated?"

"You sound like a smart child, now Vince, Sidney has been away for a few days, so it's time we have a party to welcome her into the family. With everything that she had been going through since the wedding, I believe now is the appropriate time to make her feel she is not alone and we are her family "

Chrystal glanced at him becoming angry, 'Why is it he is always trying to get them closer to each other?' Feeling the rage boiling from within as she thinks about GP's plan. 'This is not good, first, he wanted to send them on a honeymoon, which the fall prevented, and now he wants to have a welcoming party. What must I do to stop all his planning?'

Hearing Vince saying, "GP, Sidney is busy dealing with her business, soon she will be able to settle her business matters. Please give her a few more days until things settle down a bit, as you can see she now returned home and she needs to get some rest."
