Chereads / MY LOVE FOR YOU IS GREATER / Chapter 23 - CHAPTER TWENTY THREE

Chapter 23 - CHAPTER TWENTY THREE

I turn to the audience and I see the crying as tears also flow down my face.

"Okay, it's time for the bride to be to say a few words to the groom"

"Jeremy, I have so many words to say that my heart holds for you, but I guess I will say them all in bed at home (everyone laughs and I continue) Jeremy, my love for you is greater and I would not trade that love for the world, I am glad to be your wife and I promise to you that I will make you happy till death do us apart I love you Jeremy always"

"Well, that's so beautiful" the priest says and everybody laughs as he cleans tears off his eyes

"Okay, then can you please present the wedding rings"

Linda's young children come up to me and Jeremy all looking beautiful holding a pillow with the wedding rings, Jeremy holds my ring and puts it in my finger with a few words following and I too get his ring and put it in his finger. Then the priest says

"With the power within me you are now husband and wife, you may now kiss the bride" The priest finally says, Jeremy kisses me gently and we run though the run way now husband and wife after the wedding day we head for our honeymoon in France and we spent there five months because Jeremy had some work related issues in France. We come back in two weeks at home with my belly big and huge, he takes me to my parent's place to spend there time as he is working because the business had started collapsing two months pass and he is in and out of my hands. On the 29th of August 2043 is when I started getting Labour pains and my water breaks, I am rushed to the hospital and Jeremy is immediately called when I was on the way I was taken to the 'LONDON INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL' to the O.P room when I start to push the baby, Jeremy immediately bursts through the door all covered up and is by my side giving birth.

When I feel the pain is over I hear a young loud cry and it was my baby, the doctor hands me my baby and it was a boy from that day we named him Luka Leuizumo Junior after a week I am ready to take back my child back home taking care of him till he is five years old.

One day as I was at home taking care of Luka, I hear a knock on the door when I go to open I see Louis standing there looking at me, he looks like shit, like the world had hit him hard but my heartbis set on Jeremy so I let him in with happiness and not knowing what was gonna happen next. He enters the house and sits on the sofa as I send Luka outside to play it's 5:50 pm in the evening and Jeremy comes back at 7:00 pm or lately 8:00 pm so I sit a fair distance from him, the room is silent as a grave yard.

"Hi Laranie" he starts

"How have you been Louis?"

"Life has treated me fair"

"How comes?"

"I have been missing you a lot"

"Come on Louis, I am married now and with a child"

"Oh, I forgot you got married to Jeremy"

"Yeah, so I am happy where I am now"

"I am fucking not happy, I really miss you" he rises his tone

"What about Emily"

"Her and me broke up"

"Why?"

"Because she was speaking fucking cap and shit about you which I didn't like"

"But Louis you should move on with your life"

"I want you there"

"I can't, I have a husband, a beautiful house and a wonderful young son"

"It should have been me in the place of Jeremy" he suddenly shouts

"You broke my heart and I moved on without you, why don't you?"

"Trust me I have tried so fucking hard but my heart belongs to you Laranie"

"But mine belongs to my husband Jeremy"

"I don't want to hurt you Laranie, just make it simple and come with me, I will give yoy much more than what Jeremy could give you"

"I am sorry, I belong to Jeremy not to you so please fucking get out of my house"

"I am not fucking leaving without you"

"GET THE FUCK OUT" I start to rise my voice

"You left me no choice"

He grabs me and pins me down kissing me forcefully as I fight him, he then carries me and takes me to my bedroom and rapes me forcefully, when he was happy with what he had done, he grabs his clothes leaving me on my bed crying wrapped myself with a bedsheet when he leaves the house, my son Luka heads in the room and sits next to me I hug him while crying a few minutes later Jeremy enters the bedroom with a smiling face to greet me but he finds me crying with Luka in my hands.

"Laranie, what happened?" he asks puzzled

"Jeremy...I am sorry" I say while crying

"What the fuck did you do Laranie?" he asks with a rised tone in his voice

"I let Louis in and he raped me" I say as my crying becomes louder

"What?.... How could you let him in?"

"I did no know, I thought he had come for a friendly visit"

"I can't fucking believe you Laranie"

"I am sorry..... so sorry, so sorry....." I say as I cry even louder

"Laranie, what you have done can't be forgiven"

"But it's not my fault, he forced me"

"That's fucking bull shit, you know what!!!!, I can't fucking deal with this right now"

He says and moves out of the room, I try to run after him but it was too late he was already out of the house, he gets in and I stand there calling out his name hitting on the window but he ignores me and rides offf when I realized his gone I head back into the house and take a bathe and dress up sitting on my bed I begin to cry again asking myself why me? as I sit on the bed crying I get this sudden feeling of discomfort, the feeling of the one that I love the most is dead as I am still puzzled about who it might be I receive a phonr call from Sofia who was at the hospital.

"Laranie.....Laranie,something trouble has happened"she says hearing her cry from the otherside of the phone.

"What's wrong?, tell me what's wrong?"

"Well,Jeremy was involved in an accident and is now at the hospital, please come quick"

"What the?.... okay I will be there in ten minutes"

She hugs up the phone and I am dumbstruck letting the phone go falling from my hands to the ground the tears buliding up even more in my eyes and I bursts out into a loud cry, I hurriedly stand up and go to the closet to look for something to wear when I feel Luka's hands pulling my night dress.

"Mom, why are you crying so much?" he asks in the softness most sweets voice ever, I lift him up and hug him

"It's nothing baby, mom just a little sad"

"Why is mom sad?"he asks

"Because I miss dad"

"Is dad coming back"

"Yes, he will dear...he will" I hug him even more and send him to sleep when I saw he was asleep, I grab my coat wasting no time and drive to the hospital, they direct me to were Jeremy is, On reaching the room I find his sister crying outside.

"Sofia...how is he?"

"His fading quickly"

"What?....this is all my fault"

"What do you fucking mean it's all your fault?" She asks as she stands up

"He has just found out that Louis raped me and he got pissed, just running out of the house and entering his car just drove away not knowing where he would go" I say with tears in my eyes, she embraces me as I cry then the doctor walks into the room where we were but with a sad look on his face and from there the news was going to be bad.

"Doctor..... is he okay?"I ask

"Are you the wife?"he asks with sad eyes looking at me.

"Yes I am"I answer waiting for the reply, he looks down and he says

"I am troubly sorry, we couldn't save him"

"What?" Sofia says

"He's gone, I...am so sorry" the doctor says

Whaen I hear what the doctor said I fall down to my knees and make a loud cry knowing my husband and father of Luka is dead because of me from that point I remembered all the moments we shared together until this day when he is nolonger in my arms again, Sofia trrys to lift me up and just hugs me as I cry on her shoulder.
