To Lijie and Cadeau (16)
Jhene walked in with a prescription from the doctor and handed it to Natasha. "She's perfectly fine and has been discharged. But in case of any headaches or further nosebleed he has prescribed some medicines," she walked to the bedside and sat on the chair. "
"Guess it's just you and these lonely walls," Cadeau told herself and stood to leave at the same time Akarui walked through the door.The box in Akarui's hands immediately fell from fright like someone crushed in to him.
He squinted he's eyes to the light coming through the staircase and couldn't believe he's eyes. He fidgeted, feeling at a loss of words.
He looked at Cadeau and looked at the wall clock.
It was five past the hour four in the morning. Had Cadeau been crying all this time, he wondered.Cadeau stood motionless.
A normal person would have run but Akarui could hardly force himself to walk. He inched he's way to her, foot by foot, scared that she miRelated chapters

* * *Cadeau opened her eyes and squinted in the sunshine coming through the blinds. She stretched, feeling more tired than she had since.She sat up and looked at the vase of freshly cut flowers placed near the window and smirked.So he had been to her room after all. She flipped the overs back and stood, She slipped her feet into the fluffy house shoes next to her bed, God knows who they belonged to, and snatched the robe on the chair.She stepped toward the window and slid it up, she sent the vase of flowers flying down and pressed back for the curtains then walked to the door and stepped out.It was four past eleven in the morning, she looked at the wall clock ticking.The sent of strong coffee and bacon hit her nostrils, but not enough for her disappeared appetite either way, she followed the trail stopping at apex of the stairs.Her stomach rolled remembering Akarui's fist in the dust.He must have been hurt sh

Akarui sat back and forth in he's office chair, eagerness crippled him as the time arrived for doctor Qiang to video call him.He stared at he's arm on he's Rolex wrist watch it was exactly twenty eight minutes past the hour nine. Two more minutes he told himself.He never got nervous. But after sending the man a thousand emails explaining he's situation with Cadeau and her behavior starting from the night of the ceremony. He feared the worst.He'd read enough about him to know he was forty, two children, silent millionaire, and most of all, a professional physiatrist and psychologist, with a diploma in therapy.He had hoped the doctor requested for a one on one meeting, but doctor Qiang insisted he video calls him for their first encounter.Akarui connected he's laptop and showed he's face, as the waved."Good morning doctor," he smiled, "Such an honor to be in your greatness,"" the pleasure is all m

* *The following morningAkarui pulled out he's phone and typed a few messages. The piercing strength of the sun coming through the glass wall of he's office hit him like a fool he felt.He leaned back in he's chair, he's stomach tightening in anticipation of being late, throwing up the whole evening and above all, missing the early meeting with the investors.He had been folly enough to believe those energy drinks were anything good, but sleep in disguise.And to think that he had been taking them for a while made everything seem blur.He leaped forward and waited for a few seconds before reconnecting again to the server.Shortly, Amanda Lijie's supposedly wife appeared with a baby in her arms.He pressed for the loud speaker button as he spoke."How's the mother of the year and the little Champ doing?" he waved gawping.Even though Lijie had lied to him about the baby's delivery date, Akarui could

Five minutes Akarui walked back with the serving cart. He trotted to the closet and pulled out a bedsheet and spread it on the floor at the center of the room. He reached for the tray and offloaded, the plates first, the soup, wine glasses already filled, and then the two bowls of vegetable rice and chicken kadai, her favorite.Just then, Cadeau came out with her robe and attitude tied up like she was going for jitsu classes. She approached Akarui and stopped right in front of the cloth, their gaze locked.She fell to her knees, and sulked. "Let's get this done over with," She pulled a pillow.Akarui's eyes fell to the length of her clivage the moist of her pale skin, the rise and fall of her tiny breasts as she breathed, he's just mind ran wild.She grabbed the bowl of rice. She was too close, Akarui's heart was pounding too hard. This was a bad idea, he shouldn't have done this. He shrugged.Akarui took a deep breath and tr

"WANG LEI'S SWEETHEART ESCAPE PRESS!"The headline on the front page of Beijing Times newspaper read.Cadeau flang it across the table, downturning her mouth. Below was a stream of pictures, administ photographs of Akarui scoping her up, heading to the car, him wiping her face, and her landing on the ground.Cadeau felt sick."These people don't have anything to do, do they?" she glanced at Fei Hong pouring her tea.Who just shook her head in response.If she needed a real escape then she would have killed herself and left, Akarui ASAP. He was boiling her blood lately and she didn't like it.What would Lijie think if he saw this, if he hasn't already, a thought crossed her mind.The lure to trick Akarui had to become clear. That kiss wouldn't go unpunished, and actually she glanced at the time on her phone and gave him two minutes before he stormed out.Just then, as if thinking about him had conjured he's footstep

By the beginning of the new week, Akarui felt like he couldn't take take it anymore. He either sneaked out in the morning, to avoid Cadeau, or use the elevator to go and sleep on the second floor every night.He sat in Dr. Qiang's chair, taping he's foot impatiently as he listened."I told you to keep away from her but, the first thing you decide to do is disobey. How sick!" Dr. Qiang waved he's hand in agitation.Akarui stood up, frustrated, and walked to the wall. "I tried okay, but she's been banging me against a hard place. It's irritating." He moved closer to the desk and pressed he's hands, facing him. "Are you even aware that I nolonger have breakfast in my own home just to avoid her,?" he turned around and looked at the pictures on the wall. "This past week she's been forcing me to sit and watch her eat, and, if am late she secures the security lock, and I have to sleep outside, actually," he shoved he's hands in the pocket. "On Wednesday

"There's a come together party tomorrow in case you forgot," Akarui said at dinner that night.Cadeau first took a bite of the tomahawk steak rub and twitched her eyebrows, "Cancel it. I don't feel like going."Chuckling, Akarui reached for the source, "For how long Cadeau? months now, we've just been postponing to a later date what will they think?"He was right and she knew it. From the day of the wedding they've been postponing the family come together party by coming up with multiple excuses first it was their fake honeymoon, then Akarui was out of town, followed by Cadeau had a cold, and now just one more lie and they would get suspicious."On one condition," Cadeau said after a long moment of considering, "I'll come on my own. I don't want to show up with you like we're that perfect couple. ""Not possible," Akarui left no room for debate, "My dad is sending a car to pick us up and we can't reject it, but if it's me you're sc

"Good to see you Cadeau," Akarui's hugged her."Good to see you too mum," she smiled.Mrs Wang Lei was in a long peach evening gown that showed off her radiant skin exposed in the chest.She was the only one who didn't seem to drain Cadeau's energy. The only genuine one, perhaps together with Namari Akarui's elder sister.Takusan turned to look at Akarui and smilled, "my son was getting impatient thinking you wouldn't come,"Cadeau returned the passive smile. "Maybe I gave him a reason to or he's just having symptoms of hyperactive disorder,"Takusan laughed and squeezed Akarui's hand. "let's go in you two," she led the way back in.Cadeau's heart did a backflip. Meeting Akarui's family, and the other extended relatives, sounded like too much to handle. As if reading her mind, Akarui rubbed her back. She watched as he's mother disappeared through the mahogany double thick doors and inha
