Sarah was roughly folding a pair of blue shorts into a pink duffle bag.
"You can tell me how much you hate me now, Sarah," Richard said as he calmly walked towards her. "How do I say that I'm such a scumbag for hurting you and giving you a reason to want separation?" He added as he rested his hands on her shoulders but Sarah shoved them away furiously.
"How do I let you know how deeply sorry I'm for acting unreasonably, Sarah? I can apologize to your friend, Frank if you want me to, if that's the only way of proving to you how sorry I'm, Sarah," Sarah brushed past him and she walked to the window side. Her back was turned on him now.
She needed time to digest all
The atmosphere was covered in thick smoke. So many men lay about, dead. Some were burnt beyond recognition by the atomic bomb the terrorists had detonated.While Richard was fighting with Barukas, a serious war was going on, on the outside. An explosion had occurred a few miles away from them. One of Barukas' Men, cobra, as he was called, had used this opportunity to sneak into the room where the weapons were kept and caused a massive destruction. There were so many casualties.The situation outside was so ugly. Richard had never imagined that it would be this bad.There was no trace of Sarah.He wandered dejectedly through the thick smoke but found nothing. His breath became lower with every passi
It was still 4pm so the celebration was still on. There was so much to eat and drink so everyone was happy. Richard led Sarah through the crowd. Sarah was weak and looked pale.Sarah had been introduced to countless numbers of people, most of whom she wouldn't even remember, by the governor who happened to be the youngest brother to the DPO. Sarah had met him a couple of times through the DPO and had a good understanding of the young man. He was a free spirit and light-hearted.Presidents from different countries were all present today. The new president was a business tycoon earlier and was known across the globe. So, many wealthy men honored his invitation despite the fact that he had only assumed the office of the president a few months ago.
The suite was spacious and much more comfortable than the other hotel they had lodged in. It had a set of rooms with matching furniture and color, a very large living room and a big bathroom. The former hotel they stayed in was nothing compared to this. Richard had instructed someone to move their things over so everything was neatly arranged.Sarah noticed that she didn't have much to do since their luggage was neatly packed in the big brown closet, and their clothes meticulously hung. She wondered if the workers here always did such extra services for their customers or paid special attention to them.If not, who else could have done it since she was with Richard during the whole time.Richard was standing by the window and was on call with someone so Sarah inspected the room. She walked around the
"Can I borrow your phone?" Sarah asked the middle aged woman when she entered the room. The woman didn't refuse. She dipped her hand into her pocket and brought out a small phone then handed it to Sarah respectfully.Sarah dialed a number but it rang out."Pick the damn phone!" She cursed. She dialed it for the second time but it rang out. She angrily dialed it for the third time and it was finally picked. Frank sounded busy over the phone."Hello," he said. Sarah breathed hard to regain her composure then she said,
At the clothes store, Sarah tried so many dresses and they all looked good on her. The sales attendants were all in awe of her body shape. She had such an attractive features. They naturally liked customers with a catch-all body shape that wouldn't stress them so they attended to Sarah very well. Some customers would look so repulsive no matter what they wore. Sarah walked out of the changing room in a scarlet red sleeveless short gown. It fitted her skin perfectly."You look very beautiful in this ma'am," a sales attendant said, smiling. She quickly brought out a lemon green handbag with kitten heels of the same color and showed them to Sarah."It'll definitely go well with these," she said.
They were about to enter the party hall when they ran into Kate and Philip. They were both holding hands and about to enter the party hall too."Where have you been since? Come here. Meet your sister in-law, Sarah. Sarah, this is Kate, my daughter," Mrs. Harriet introduced the two women to each other.Kate was elegantly dressed in a flowy silk dinner gown. It wasn't difficult to tell that she was from a rich home. She had a strong aura around her just like Richard and had Richard's eyeballs too. She looked like a princess in her dinner gown."And this is Philip, Kate's fiance," Mrs. Harriet said again.&
A maid came over to Sarah's table and whispered something to Mrs. Harriet. Mrs. Harriet excused herself and left instantly. Sarah was left with the other women. She didn't feel comfortable any longer after Mrs. Harriet left the table.Although they were all nice to Sarah, she somehow wished Mrs. Harriet was there. Music played and people bagan to grace the dance floor with their partners.The environment was very lively as they danced happily to the music. Mrs. Harriet's friends left the table too to join on the dance floor. Sarah was the only person left now. She had politely declined when the women suggested that they danced.Since she was the only person left, she poured herself a red wine and sipped quietly. It was 10:30 pm n
Sarah headed to the first floor. Richard's room and study were on the second floor. None of the maids dared come to this floor except if invited.On the first floor, there were so many rooms here. Sarah entered the first one by the right. She found the room neatly Kempt. The bed was large too. Although no one was using the room, the cleaners cleaned the entire house daily so the room was just sparkling clean.Sarah didn't expect to see a bed in the room since no one slept there, so she had come with a pillow and planned to sleep on the floor. She was surprised to find out that the room was as warm as Richard's and the bed, as comfortable as his.'Rich people like spending for spending sake. How can he pay this level of attention to a r
