137: Better late than never
“I don’t think I did the right thing by asking us to leave,” Leila said into the phone. Her best friend was on the other end. Kelvin was still sulking. He might be pretending to be okay but she knew he wasn’t. By not talking to his mother, it had affected his relationship with his father. “We should have waited for a bit.”
“Girl!” Freya screamed as if talking normally would have opposite effect. “You saved your husband’s life.”
Tucking the phone between her shoulder and ear, Leila arranged the makeup brushes on the dresser. Kelvin’s words came back to her. She knew he was right; she had to stop worrying.
“She wouldn’t have really hurt him.”

She stretched her hand to him and he grabbed it with a smile bigger than anything.“You slept well?” he whispered against her lips.Leila patted the mess on her head and he tickled her till she giggled. Hovering above her, his knee between her legs, he kissed her nose.“I did, baby,” she replied. “Did you?”“Yeah.”Switching positions so she could be on his lap, he loosened her rope and tugged the strap of her gown down her shoulders. Her breasts were bigger and fuller. His finger circled one hard nipple.

The car was deathly still. Leila was trying to keep the laughter in but it became harder. She turned on the radio and Kelvin switched it off, grumbling under his breath.Unable to hold it in any longer, she erupted in laughter. “Fuck you, Leila,” was all he said.Leila laughed harder. She didn’t reply him till they were at a traffic light. “Yes, Kev. I want you to fuck me but as you can see, I’m driving. I wouldn’t want us to get killed. I don’t want to give you another reason to scream.”“Shut up!” At his outburst, more laughter trickled out of her lips. She wiped the tears that leaked out of the corners of her eyes. She had always thought nothing scared Kelvin but today, hearing him scream in fear during the zombies attack had proved her wrong. “I hate that game.”“Really?”Kelvin stared at his feet. “Yeah. Didn’t enjoy it much.

She got to the store and her mother was outside waiting for her.Leila smiled. They might look different but she would always see this amazing woman as her mother. She got out of her car and her mother engulfed her in a hug. For a second, she held her breath, expecting to be called by her pet name but nothing came out from her mother.Her mother caressed her chin. “Leilani.”“Mum.”They hugged again.

The next day, Leila was up before Kelvin. She tried to get off the bed but his arms tightened around her.How was she supposed to get to the hospital?“Kev? Wake up. I need to pee.”His arms loosened. “Okay.” He peeled one eye open and patted the spot she rolled off. “Be fast, I’m waiting for you. I want to cuddle and kiss you, baby.”“Okay, love.”Leila was back in the room within minutes. She needed to leave the hospital but she had to find a way to do it without letting him know. Kelvin’s lips turned down in a pout. He stretched his arms and she crawled back to the bed to join. Today was Sunday, they should be resting but her mind was restless.“You’ve not told me where you were yesterday,” he said into her ear when she was tucked in his arms.Leila slowly turned. Kelvin pushed an arm under his head. He hadn’t bee
His Contract Wife 143: No
Kelvin stood, then sat. He stood again, then sat again. His wife promised everything was fine but he was so restless he could barely do anything. He opened his laptop to work but the words on his screen blurred. He shut down the laptop on his study table and locked his hands behind his head. They had been doing fine for a while now. She couldn’t be sick, he would have known. Wait, what if she was pregnant?He jumped when his phone rang. Startled, he grabbed it from the table. It was his sister, Madonna. A grin touched his lip as he picked. Madonna’s voice filtered into his ear in a high pitch. He kicked his legs under the table and his grin widened.“Mum’s here,” she said after the pleasantries.His smile dimmed. Kelvin ran one hand through his hair. This wasn’t what his mother told him. She would not be in California until a week. His fist met the table. That was his issue with her. Making decisions that cou
His Contract Wife 144: Positive
Leila sang along to the song playing from the radio, messing up the lyrics without a care. The car from behind overtook her but she didn’t give a shit. She wouldn’t have minded if someone slapped her. In fact, she might have turned her other cheek to them.Nothing had been able to affect her since she saw the result of the test. Positive. She was pregnant with her and Kelvin’s baby. Fifteen weeks pregnant. How did she not notice? The increased appetite. The weight gain. The breasts heaviness. It wasn’t just her getting fat, it was her body adjusting to accommodate their baby. She rubbed a hand over her belly. It was a boy.She couldn’t say for sure but she felt it would be a boy. A boy that would be named after his father. In her excitement, she had crushed the doctor in a hug. They would return later after she told her husband the great news.

His Contract Wife 145: No result
First try. No result. Second try. No result. Third try. No result. A frustrated growl tore out of Kelvin’s lips. He tossed the phone on the bed and paced the room.He fucked up. Knowing his mother-in-law and wife’s history, he shouldn’t have suggested her staying here to Leila. Was that why she wouldn’t pick his call?His phone rang and he rushed to it. His chest sagged. It was his mother, not Leila. He didn’t pick. She was the cause of all these. Leila had been excited, what did she want to tell him? Why wouldn’t she pick his calls? He pinched his nose and growled again.Frustration ate at his insides. He wanted his wife. Kelvin stared at his phone for a long time before it hit him. Freya. She was going to Freya’s.
