I was in the car with Antonio and I was seated on the front seat and opposite him while he drove. After slight persuasion, he consented to take me with him to interrogate one of the attackers that was caught.We were in the car in total silence. My eyes were bent scarcely while I enjoyed luminous light from the moon and stars that illuminated the sky. I didn’t know when last I took a night drive and doing it then was a wonderful feeling. The last time I did, it was when I tried running away from home but was caught. It was a terrible experience. Breathing the night air was fantastic. I sealed my eyes and relaxed my head on the rim of the seat. Whenever I closed my eyes, Dima’s face always made me shudder back to life. Antonio was all serious and driving fast like he owned the map of the road. I peeped at him for a second and turned back away. I wanted to appreciate him for saving my life but my ego wouldn’t let me. My lips shook but I didn’t allow myself to say a word. “Why did yo
Silence. That was the only thing heard while I lay on the bed beside Antonio. I goggled at the roof in the obscure darkness. I couldn’t sleep as much as I tried to. I didn’t have the guts to. After everything that happened, it was impossible for me to sleep. The love of my life was shot right in front of me. I saw a bullet puncture a man’s head in front of me. I also saw a man’s belly and intestines eaten by rats. Everything jammed together in my head and I couldn’t help but ponder on all of them. Antonio slept calmly as though nothing happened. I looked at him sleep with his left hand placed on his chest as he faced the roof too. I sat up and kicked back on the bed frame. I missed Dima and couldn’t wait to see him in the morning because Antonio had promised to take me to him in the morning. We had finished with the Chinese interrogation late in the night. I felt really uncomfortable. We also saw a dragon mark on the neck of the Chinese spy. Truly he was from the Triad I stood up fr
“Speak now! Why have you been following us!?” Antonio roared and pressed his elbow on the neck of the Asian man who stared in fear. “Following you? I have not been following you. I do not even know you. This is the first time I am seeing you” The Asian man struggled to speak. I stood by the side a little embarrassed as people stared at the scene.“Then why have you been pacing this ward since I came here? speak!” Antonio growled and pointed his face in the face of the Asian man who had fear written all over him. “That is because I am looking for my wife. I brought her for her antenatal but I couldn’t see her anymore.” He said trying to push himself away from Antonio but Antonio was too much of a size for Him to overpower“Let go of My husband” A voice came from behind. I turned and saw a woman up the duff hurrying towards the scene. I stared and watched in awe because it wasn’t making sense to me. “That is my wife” the Asian man pointed towards the woman who stood behind Antonio t
“ This is the very reason why I said I will go with you but you refused me to come. I’m sure if I was there by your side, that bastard wouldn’t have dared to touch you. Stupid punk!” Antonio growled and whined in the car as we drove back home. Veins popped out on his head and on his hand as he grabbed the steering wheel very aggressively. I remained mute like a student who was caught in the act of cheating during an exam. I was traumatized and talking wasn’t the right action to take at that point. Antonio was so an her y and I knew interjecting would have gotten even more angry. I was grateful and fortunate that he listened to my voice when I called him. And told him to stop or else I wondered what would have happened to the blonde pervert. “You should have allowed me break fucking single bones of that don of a bitch so that when next he sees a woman, he would scram.” He thundered and banged husband on the steering wheel. He drove so fast at some point I feared for my dear life.“It
I stood at the door in stupefaction as I watched Kira give me a death stare. Her eyes were like fireballs ready to roast me from my head to toe. “Choose Guila!” She snapped and turned back to Guila who was lost in it all. I could see tension on her face. “You don’t have to worry Guila, I will come back later. I will just leave this here for you so you’d eat” I smiled and walked closely to where they sat on the bed and placed the tray of food on the table beside Guilas bed. Kira’s eyes didn’t leave me and I could feel them roaming all over my body. I stood up to leave and whiffed Guila another smile. What she had on her face wasn’t a smile, neither was it a frown. It was something different. I’d be right to say it was a mixture of them both. “Wait” Guila grabbed my left wrist softly. I dropped my eyes on her one more time. “Stay, Olga”. My eyes narrowed down at her. “Oh wow! You have made your choice, haven't you!? You chose a total stranger Russian cunt over your own blood. Rid
“Come here!” Dima clasped my waist and jolted me closer to himself. His chest mashed firmly on my breasts and his eyes lingered in mine. I felt a fresh shoot of blood in my veins. It was a tremendous moment, and I marveled at it. “I miss you” I hit my lower lips seductively and brought my face closer to his. It was a week now after the brouhaha at Taormina. Dima was back home, well, but still recuperating. I had missed him so much and this was the first time we were having a quiet time since he returned. I had to sneak into his room to attain it. “I kept thinking about you, My Olga” His right hand left my waist and grabbed my chin. It was a delicate hold but it made my legs weak and cowering. I watched as his lips wavered at every word articulation. “ I couldn’t get you off my mind” he added and smoother my forehead tenderly. There was a haul like my body was electrocuted by the merging of his lips and my skin. It was an exquisite feeling I got. Butterflies truly flew in my belly.“
“ Please don’t do that. It’s for your own good” I shook my head while still having a firm hold of Kira’s hand. Her eyes were gleaming like a furnace. Pieces of sweat dissolved and dripped all around her face. “How dare you hold my hand!?” She barked and pulled her hand off my grasp. “What’s going on?” Guila asked as she was fully down on the floor. I didn’t really pay attention to her, I had a bigger shark in front of me. “This Stupid Russian cunt had the stomach to hold my hand!” Kira reported to Guila with her eyes jutting out of their sockets. “I only did that for your own good” I knew what was going to happen if I had let Kira slap me. I was quite certain Antonio wasn’t going to take things lightly with her if he was to find out that she touched his wife, his pride. I couldn’t get the image of the scene at the restaurant off my head. It stuck to my head like glue, vivid and lucid. “Why did you even try slapping her Kira? You are going too far!” Guila snapped and swished her h
“Good night,” Antonio let out to me and lay peacefully on his side of the bed. He wrapped the duvet which stopped around his waist. He faced the roof like he normally does when sleeping. I was mute with tears in my eyes. I didn’t know why I even felt the way I felt. I don’t know why I felt some kind of pang In my chest. I wasn’t even sure if it was a lipstick on his shirt. It might have been blood as usual. Probably it was just my thoughts running wild. Numerous thoughts scrambled into my head and it made my head ache. I tucked my hands inside and left them on my chest. Minutes had passed since Antonio turned off the light and slept. I wasn’t so sure if he had slept off yet but I presumed he had. I pulled off the bed and dropped my legs on the floor. I felt cold which grasped my legs. My heart was pumping blood rapidly. My phone chimed. I turned to check who it was from because since I got married, I hadn’t gotten any message from my family nor had I gotten a call from them. I mea
