"Hi Babe", said Jeff. Instead of being yelled at Jeff was sounding too happy. This put me in another dilemma. I'm the one who is breaking this news to him. I'm going to hurt sweet Jeff as mocked by Heidi. He is not just sweet warm, considerate man which her fiance never was. Even if her fiance had become my husband."You there Babe. I was going to call. The meeting went well. I got the loan. How was the wedding? Sorry I missed it", said Jeff."Tell me something. Are you angry at me for missing it? But you said it was fine", he hesitated."No I'm not angry. Though I wish I missed it too", I said."Oh baby. I understand you don't have to stay there anymore. I had already talked to a realtor we can move into our dream home but you have to give me the garage for start up", he said merrily."I left my home," I said trying control the shiver in my voice."Ziva are you OK? What happened?", he asked concerned."Heidi ran away from wedding. I had to stand in for her. I had no choice. I'm sorry
I have used the intercom against my better judgement. Fathima came and helped me find the guest bedroom. It was furnished better than I could imagine. But still it lacked the personal touch. I was a mere accountant but I could tell that it lacked a few things. But it was not my home. It is a temporary place to stay. There is no need for me to retouch it in anyway. I was thinking a little too much about the decor to block out the other images. I lost for a second and the images came flooding back. His lips on mine. The hardness of his mouth against my softness. I touched my lips. It is swollen from his kisses. I shudder to think what might have happened if I hadn't stopped him. If he kisses me like that every night I'm gone. There is no redemption for me. I'm in the danger of being seduced by a devil. But I guess bringing Jeff right after the kiss might have caused caused him to abandon his plans of bedding me at least temporarily. I knew that should have made me happy but instead it
I didn't sleep the night at all. I kept turning over the bed a few times. I also expected him to come to exercise his rights. But he didn't. I was relieved and also disappointed. I don't know why? Did I really hate him as I believe? I don't know. I wanted to talk to him. I want to say I felt his pain. Even if he refused to admit it to me. It is not every day one's bride leaves him at altar. It is pretty humiliating. I have experienced it all my life. I remember my prom ruined by my own sister. She slept with my date on the same day of my prom. I was very heart broken. I had no idea why she was interested in the men chosen by me. They were all average. I closed my eyes for sometime and with a sigh I abandoned the attempt to sleep on wee hours of the morning.I opened my rarely visited I*******m and deleted all the images of Jeff. I saw that I had been tagged by the wedding photographer. The images had garnered several likes. I never had this many likes my life. I realised I had received
"Jeff I'm sorry for hurting you. I should never have treated you this way. Please forgive me", I said with a sigh."I don't want to talk about it. I'm sure that you have married him under duress. We can file for a divorce", he said."I can't do that", I said in a quiet voice."Why not?", he asked annoyed at me."Because he will ruin us financially. My father is in the hospital. He can't take all the pressure. He had threatened to sue us and also take our company", I said."So what if he takes that company. It was never yours any way. Your father was going to give it your sister", he said. "I know. I'm doing it so that everything falls into place. I know how important the company is", I said. "" More important than you? ", he asked. " Without the company we will be on road", I said. I know that Heidi had no plans for getting a job anywhere and it was impossible without a degree. The company is her back up plan. She had been neglecting it because she thought to marry Dane there by eli
I walked to my room easily this time without any help from Fathima. The house had started to like me. It had stopped intimidating me unlike it's master. I have come to love each and every nook and corner of this house. When I stepped into my room I was dumbstruck Dane was sitting there his hand loosely held my hair clip which I had decided to not wear last minute. I took a quick inventory of my room. I left it in a hurry but I hadn't made it messy. I was about to make a noise to catch his attention but he glanced at me. I thought for a second he didn't like the fact that I had returned. But that was not the staff told me. I could have completely avoided this if Fathima gave me a hint that he was waiting for me."You are back", he said his eyes betrayed his relief in seeing me. I'm sure he wanted to save his reputation which would be shattered had I left him."I didn't realise that I was supposed to be a prisoner here", I said."You are not a prisoner but you are my wife and I should kn
This could be a recipe for disaster that is all I care to think about the impromptu lunch invite given to me by my husband last night. I had worn a dress this time of my size. I checked to see all the dresses of my sister's size had been replaced by mine. There had been a shift in the mould of dresses too. From being too bold they had toned down to mediocre but not at all boring. The point is I loved it every one of them. Even though I hated the idea of a stylist I could never achieve half of what she had done to my wardrobe today. I haven't even mentioned the fact the dresses where too short for me. But he had somehow guessed it. I never thought men could give attention to details. The one time I went out with Jeff he had forgotten the fact that I had peanut allergy and ordered me a peanut cake. Thankfully I had sense to ask him saved by the bell what else can I say? Thinking of Jeff had filled me with guilt not of our breakup but not feeling anything particularly. I used to judge He
He left immediately for his office after leaving me at my home. I wanted to ask him about joining back office too. But hadn't gotten the courage to do so. I know he will either allow it or deny, there was no need for stalling anymore I should ask him. I decided to do it today . I may even keep my hair untied just so he agree with me. I wonder how my father was? I wanted to know but I didn't want to call Ella again. So I rang the hospital they said he was discharged. I was relieved immediately. I wanted to see him but I didn't know how? I can't just go back. Ella had warned me to leave them alone. But how can I not see my father? He is everything to me.I hated sitting at my room alone. So I went to the kitchen and saw Fathima cooking. I immediately went towards her. She was pleased to see me. There are only two of us in home right now. There are securities outside but they rarely came inside. I helped her by shaving potatoes and she smiled at my actions."Where are you from?", I asked
"What?", I almost shouted on surprise."I said you are fired", he said with a smirk."I heard you. You have no right to fire me. I want to know on what grounds you are firing me?", I asked him confidently."Only one reason I can't have my wife working in a low level job in my own company", he said this time there was no smirk."Fine it is your company after all. I will find a work in any other company", I said confidently. I know I have a valuable experience from Wellington Inc. I can find another job just as easily."Good luck to you if anyone hires you knowing I'm your husband. They will think of you as a corporate spy", he said."Why did you have to come to my life and ruin everything?", I said sadly."Don't be dramatic. Why you want to work anyways? I'm giving you credit card and shit", he said exasperated."Because a job is important to me. What if you leave me tomorrow? I have to be independent", I said."You won't be wanting money when and if I divorce you. You will be taken car
