I heard the sound of his car driving off while I went inside the house, I was greeted with a very hard hot slap on my face, tears threatening to fall, where have you been Jake shouted at me, I'm sorry I went to work that day and then something happened, I was rushed to the hospital and stayed there for a day, it wash boss who drove off, I said, he held me by my throat, squeezing the air, are you fucking him, no, no am not I managed to say, then why didnt you fucking call me, tears already spelling out from my eyes staying my cheeks, I'm not with my phone, I believe you took it during that night at the club, he looked at me like he remember and removed his hand from my neck, i coughed and rubbed my neck with my hands, what happened to you that you went to the hospital, tears still streaming down my face, I had a massive headache and stomach ache and I fainted while trying to get up, so my boss took me to the hospital, I was kept there for a whole day, doctor said i was dehydrated and t

I “gasp” as I was drenched in a bucket of cold water, I was panting so fast, my eyes wide open, my body sore, I looked up and saw that it was Emily that threw the water on me, why the fuck are you looking at me like this, she asked, nothing I said while turning my head to the side, she just picked up a chair and sat in front of me, no one was talking just staring at each other, she looked at me up and down with disgust, you look like shit she said, I thought we were best friends I whispered, best friend, best friend, she laughed while standing up, she walked back and forth, oh baby we aren’t, well I mean we were best friends before, that was when we were little kids until your parents fucked things up, my parents never did anything it was your dad that was crushing on my mom and my mom did the right thing by telling your mom about it, before I could say more she gave me a very hard slap, shut up you stupid bitch, the slap stinged, tears threatening to come out but I did not let it fal

I walked back into the hospital, Amelia is still sleeping, I sat down thinking about what the elders said, I used my thumb and my pointy fingers massaging my temple, I’m so stressed out, what if she doesn’t want to be turned, it’s not even that, how would I tell her my secret, I was so lost in thought that I didn’t see Amelia stiring in her sleep, I scout closer to her, stroking her hair, her eyes opened, her big beautiful eyes, she blink rapidly because of the bright light in the hospital, she was taking in her surrounding before her eyes finally locked on me, she looked shocked, she tried sitting up but failed, hey, it’s okay, relax, she looked at me nodding her head, she looked at the jug of water on the table, let me get that for you, I poured her a glass of water and gave it to her, she drank it fast, I poured her another water, she took her time this time drinking it, so you want another water, she nodded her head in a no gesture, I drop the glass on the table and sat down at th

I woke due to the noise I was hearing, Amelia, I got out of bed and ran to the room, when I opened the door I saw her fussing on the bed, I went to her side, Amelia, hey hey hey, it’s okay, it’s okay, Amelia wake up, wake up, I saw tears on her face, I wiped it off, Amelia wake up, I shaked her a little bit, she gasp as she opened her eyes, I sat her up rubbing her back gently, it was just a dream okay, it’s not real she looked at me with tears in her eyes, don’t cry okay, don’t cry, it pains my heart to see her like this, I thought he loved me, immediately when the words came out of her mouth it was like the hairs on my body prick up, his a fucking bastard, she wiped her eyes and looked at me, I don't have anybody again, I had Emily before she said in between hiccup I thought we were best friends, shussh it's okay, forget about them, try and forget about them, common let's have something to cool you down, she nodded her head, I got up from the bed, when she got up I got hard, the way

I didn’t sleep quite much, I felt very energetic, I was up until 5:40 on my laptop doing some office work, my assistant from the office called me Richard, yes I answered, sir I have schedule the meeting for next tomorrow and the construction workers would also like you to meet them, okay tell the construction workers I’ll be there around next tomorrow also, okay sir, I cut the call, I didn’t even know when time passed, its already 7:30, I walked out of the room wanting to make breakfast for Amelia, I hope she enjoyed her sleep but upon entering the kitchen I was amazed by what I saw, Amelia cooking in the kitchen wearing my cloth, the food also smells so good, I stop there as I saw her put the batter on the pan, she was cutting up the fruits, she was doing everything elegantly, the only thing missing now is our kids, she flip the pancakes and let it cook in the other side for some minutes, I walked up a little to her, as she was about to put the pancake on the plate she got startled,
