Cape Town, South Africa.

THREE DAYS LATER

?Haira Pov?
Ambrose left the house, he doesn’t even know where he was going, he kept beating around the bush anytime I demanded to know his destination. According to him he just met a new business partner and he’s busy trying to get some things done.

Since I got married to him, I know of every file, every transaction and every business partner of his. When and how he suddenly met a business partner on a tour trip is what i am still baffled about.

Ambrose would leave the house every morning and return late at night. This have been going on for the last three days now. I don’t know if he has a plan though but i really think he do. How would he be comfortable leaving me with his friend? We haven’t seen anywhere in Cape Town and he’s not even buying the idea of using an hotel. First he suggested that we port to an hotel and suddenly, he’s no longer interested.

I have tried to maintain peace with Donatus even in the absence of Ambrose.
I heard a slight knock on the door and I already knew who it was.
“You should be resting, what do you even want from me?” I yelled at him once the door flung open.
“I don’t know, there’s something that attracts me to you” he said yawning, it was time for bed already but I wouldn’t sleep until my husband returns from his suspicious outing.

“What happen to the South African babes? They aren’t cute?” I asked standing hands akimbo and blocking him from entering the room.

“Haira, I miss us” He touched my face and I yanked his hand off.
“I would curse you with my nudity if you don’t let me go. I am married to your friend” I yell holding my head in confusion.
“Ain’t you still convinced that I love you? After the beating and that hot water splash that I and you know was not an accident, I still cant do without having a thirst for you. I wouldn’t have you forever, it’s just for the few days you would spend here, please” He pushed me in and slammed the door behind. I panicked, I look around for an object to defend myself.

“Don’t try anything stupid, let’s enjoy every moment” He grinned limping towards me while I took few steps backward.
“You would stop when your back hits the wall” He grinned again taking a brief stop and throwing his two hands behind him. I jumped on the bed and was about rolling on the other side of the room when he grabbed my legs and parted it.

“Over my dead body would you have me again you beast!” I cried kicking him as hard as I can.

Thank God for jeans trouser, he had that to struggle with.

I was beneath him and fighting as hard as I can, I got a chance of turning him over and I dash out of the room.

“You? Haira you?” He limped down the stairs as I ran ahead of him.
“If you truly love me, why didn’t you marry me? You left me for years, over eight years and now you want to have my husband’s right?” We were in the sitting room already, I ran and he followed. he locked the main door and I had no where to run to aside my room.

The limping idiot caught up with me before I could bolt the door. He bolted the door, locked it with it key and pocketed the key.
“We are back here, let’s do this fast” He pushed me into bed and i slapped him hard across the face.

My husband had drank a bottle of wine the night before, the empty bottle sat at the corner of the room and i quickly rushed for it.

By the time he was done holding his face, I already stood close to the door ready to scatter his head if he came closer.
“The key?” I asked as I threatened to pull out his brain if he did anything funny.
“No sex, no key” He grinned not feeling moved by my threat.

“You took me twice in one night and you aren’t even sorry, you slept with me without protection under my husband’s nose. You are mad Donatus! ” I cried trying to wipe off the cloud of tears that tried blunting my views.
“Yes I am madly in love with you, you think you are strong? I only gave you the opportunity to feel like some kind of super woman. I would have beaten you to death the other day if I wanted to” He stood up from the bed and walked towards me. I held the bottle firmly and got ready to smash his head. I would elope with my husband if he dies, who cares?

“You took your friend’s right, thief! I can’t allow you steal from Ambrose, i haven’t even had the courage to tell him what you did few days back and you are here trying to take me to bed again? Come, move closer and I would send you crashing” I said beckoning on him to move closer, I am killing him tonight.

He took bold step towards me and I was about hitting the bottle on the wall when his phone beeped.

“I would be there” he said into the phone before ending it.
“That husband of yours is a wizard, he’s waiting at the door and you know what? I just have to spare you tonight” He grinned inserting the key into it hole and turning it to the left. He unbolt the door taking few looks behind him to see the scorn I wore.

“Be a good girl, shut your mouth up or else, i would personally get him a new wife when he divorces you” he grinned before dashing out of the room.

I quickly put my self together and returned the room to it normal settings.
