Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Crying “ What did I do to deserve this”? I cried out loud as I walked down the road. I didn’t take note of the speeding car that was coming towards me. Bang . I fell to the ground covered in a pool of blood. I could hear different voices as I struggled for air. “Hello is this the mother in law of the owner of the phone..., She has just been involved in an accident”. All I could see was people gathered around me, seeing Their pitiful faces, before my eyes went shut.

“Doctor am the mother to Sam Anderson she was admitted here, how is she doing??” “ Madam calm down she is doing just fine, although she has lost a lot of blood but she'll be alright”. “ Thank you doctor”. “Sam are you alright? are you okay?” “Am fine”. I said in a weak voice . “Alright my dear, Alex will stay with you I need to see someone”. Mom left immediately and I was left with this devil.

“you tried to kill yourself, how shameless of you. If you think am going to sit here and take care of you, you are wrong”. He threw the flower vase which was placed on the table.

Alex pov

I walked out of the hospital mad and annoyed. Ring “hey babe good morning” . “good morning Laura”. “Guess what”. “what”??? “My plane just landed”. “ Really am on my way to pick you up”. I left the hospital with a smile after hearing Laura has arrived.

I waited for her outside the airport and I saw her, the flower that brightens up my day. I gave her a huge warm hug. “I missed you”. I told her giving her a peck on the lips. “i missed you too”. She told me. We started the journey to go home.

“Open the gates, Alex here” I said through the mic near the walls of the gate but it didn’t open. “tf- open the gates”. I screamed again but I didn’t open . I was about to call Wong when i saw mom and that witch called Sam. “this gate won’t be open for you unless you send that hoe home”. “How many times have I told you not to call her using those vulgar words”. “ I don’t care the gate won’t be open for you, you are married now Alex. You left your wife just to meet her”. “without thinking twice I entered my car and drove off with Laura in it.

End of pov

“ Mom, you should not have done that”. “I don’t like her and she shouldn’t be near you or Alex or this house”. “ Let’s go inside”. We went onto the house. I haven’t really explored this place. “ I went upstairs and open a door close to the bedroom I sleep in and I saw it was his study. See how messy it is. I sat down and started to arrange the files by the dates it was issued . I took all the empty folders which was scattered all over the floor and stacked them putting them very close to the table. I did a few things and I saw it was clean. I came out and saw butler Wang shocked. “Uncle anything wrong”? He didn’t give me a reply and he left. I went to the room where I have been assigned to sleep at the balcony. I took a blanket, a pillow and a mosquito repellant to save me from those bloody animals. “let me just take a quick nap this afternoon”. I fell right asleep.

I felt a rush of cold water poured on me. “who asked you to enter my study, who”? I screamed. “ I was just wandering around the house and I opened the study door and saw it was messy, so I decided to clean it a bit”. I felt a harsh sting on my left cheek due to the slap he just gave me. “ A warning don’t ever enter that room again, do you hear me”. I nodded and tears started to roll down. Knock “Come in” he said “Sir your brother is here” the maid took a quick glance at me and left. “Dont leave this room”. He left and I burst out into tears.

“Alex what a nice day to see you”. “stfu and tell me why you are here”. “oh come on now won’t you welcome your brother”. “Step brother to be precise, Andrew” . “ I heard you recently just got married, won’t you let me see your wife”. All of a sudden that witch came downstairs with a hoodie on. “Hi” she greeted and went to the kitchen. “Wait”. Andrew shouted and went close to her. “ unreliable Sam” “Grumpy boss ” suddenly they burst out laughing. “why did you quit?, Is it because of those people”? I nodded. “ I’m so sorry. Look at you, you are now my brother’s wife”. “ brother”??? “ unreliable Sam he’s actually my step bro but anyhow, I want you back at work by the day after tomorrow”. “Yes sir” I replied with a smile. “Alex I will be on my way good-bye” Andrew left and I was left shocked. “Sam bring me a cup of tea” he said and the maid was just about bringing it upstairs when I took it from her. “Mrs Anderson is actually suffering”. The lady who was about giving Alex his tea said. “what a lie, she’s enjoying the fruit of her labour”. Another maid said. “ No she is not, when I went upstairs to call Mr Alex I saw her on the floor holding her cheef and crying. “thats non of your business the other maid said and left.

I took the drink upstairs and saw he was in his study. Knock . “drop it on the table and leave”. I dropped it and left to go and take a nap.
