Chapter 9 - Truth unfolded 2

She helped me to get on my feet "It's nothing. I'm also getting my own share, and God also hates waste" she smiled.

"Can I ask a question please?"

"Sure"

I thought for some while before staring at her again "Who is this madam to Steve?"

The lady sighed before answering "She's his wife"

"His wife? How? She's old enough to be his mother"

nd she is 60 years old. Didn't you know about it?" she said and I started crying. Did he lie to me? He said he was very much single. "No, I didn't know about. He said that he was very much single, he even proposed to me yesterday. This is the ring" I said as I showed her my finger.

I continued "He even raped me yesterday. He has been asking for sex but I didn't give him and he forcefully took my virginity, my pride, what do I do now?" I asked as I began to shout.

"There's nothing you can do, because if his wife finds out, she will sack me because I know about everything he does, he brings different girls in here and gives me money in order to keep my mouth shut but he didn't say anything about you that's why I asked who you were" she said soberly.

"So?" I eyed her. I was talking about my virginity, and she is here talking about her job?

"If she sacks me, you won't be able to get madam's used things and she will only send him out of the house. Would that do you any good?"

She continued "Hmm…but if you can keep this quiet, you can find an evidence and blackmail him. He will give you all he has, because that woman is his source of finance and he won't want to lose her" she said.

"But, what of my virginity?" I fell to the ground. "You have to forget it, and make him pay for it with money" she spoke frankly like my virginity was nothing; no sympathy at all.

"Forget about it? No amount of money can buy my virginity" I shouted. "It's your choice, when you are ready to leave, call me, so that I can give you the package" she said and dropped an employment id card and left.

Immediately she opened the door, we saw Steve at the door "Good day sir" she greeted him nicely before she entered into another room.

Steve came in, and looked at me like a piece of trash. He walked to the bed, and was about to sit when he saw that it was still stained "You! Why is the bed still stained?" he yelled.

I didn't reply him. I didn't feel the need to. After all that he did? 

He started to moved towards me "Isn't it you I am talking to?"

I didn't still say a word. I was going to show him how angry I was too.

He pulled my hair "Go there and begin to clean it. Now!" he dragged me up with my hair and pushed me towards the bed. I started crying. Why was everyone trying to wound me with my hair? 

"Really? That was what I was thinking about? My hair?" I smiled to myself.

I started to yell "You lied to me you son of a bitch; I hate you so much. You took what I valued the most. You said you were going to wait, you said you loved me but you have a wife?"

Steve moved closer to me and slapped me "Don't you ever in your life talk to me that way again" he pulled me up from the bed and pushed me to the wall "I never loved you bitch, you were just my toy and I will continue to use you until I'm tired of you and no longer useful" he said as he punched me in the face mutiple times.

I laid down helplessly on the ground with tears rolling down my eyes slowly. "Stand up and begin to clean it. Mind you, if you don't, I will fuck you again and give you the beating of your life" he threatened.

Steve wouldn't do that. He loved me so much" I assumed myself. " I will not going to clean it" I said thinking that he was just blabbering.

He picked me up from the ground and threw me on the bed and gave me the beating of my life, I was so weak and injured so I couldn't fight back. I laid down muttering calmly "I will clean it. I-I am sorry"

He didn't listen to me, instead, he kissed me roughly and bite me on my lip that I could taste my own blood, but I couldn't do anything. "You are my toy, so always do as I say" he warned.

Steve took off his belt ready to do the unspeakable, but God decided to save me; he's phone rang.

" Who the hell is calling!" He hissed.

He stood up to pick up his phone and I used the opportunity to crawl down from the bed and then to the door. I managed to open it and I crawled to the room that the lady entered the other time, naked.

I actually forgot that I wasn't wearing anything until I got to the lady's room, but it was actually the least of my concern.

Thankfully, I met her there and she carried me to the bathroom to hide 

After few minutes Steve came banging on her door and he asked if she saw me, but she covered up for me and answered negatively. He commaneded her to go get his car keys in the room.

After she came back, she opened the door of the bathroom and helped me take a quick bath. I was in so much pain as water touched my skin, but I had to get clean so that I wouldn't look like a mad person when I got out.

She got clean cloths for me "He has gone to look for you, so all you have to do is to drink some water and leave before he gets back because he will check my room if he doesn't still find you" she spoke to me calmly.

I nodded, she gave me water and offered me food but I declined. "Can I get your phone number? I forgot your id in the room"

"Sure" She wrote her number on my palm. "Can you help me pick my phone that is in the room. I have some important things there"

"Sure" She went to the other room to get my phone and my purse. "I didn't take your bag because Steve would notice"

"Thank you"

I walked out of the compound with her help, walking as fast as I could.

Then here I am, in a coffee shop with bruises all over my body and I can't go home now because he will be waiting for me there.

"Should I follow the lady's advice or I should report to the police? If I report to the police, I will not get enough money from him and I will be at loss because I will have to get a lawyer and if his wife finds out, he won't get money to compensate me" I thought as I walked to the counter and paid the bills. I had to walk hurriedly to the entrance so that my boss won't see me like this.
