Chapter 47

Three Weeks Later…

It was in the evening when Cindy was about to go home.

Samuel came out of his office and saw her walking toward the exit. He walked to her immediately he sighted her.

“Trying to leave me, huh?” He asked beside her.

She looked at her side and smiled shortly.

“Sorry. I don’t know how I’m feeling and I felt the need to be home as soon as possible.” Cindy said.

“Are you okay?” He asked concerned.

“Yeah. Thank you.” She answered.

They both walked to the parking lot with Samuel holding her hand.

He helped her unlock the door and helped her in.
Her tummy is now getting protruding bit by bit.

“Can you drive?” He asked.

“Yes. I will manage. Do you still have some stew left?’ She asked.

Lately, she has been the one bringing him stew from her house.

“Yes. Be careful and call me when you get home.” He said.

“I will. Thank you and take care.” She said fastening the seat belt and eventually drove away.

Samuel watched her leave before walking to his car. He was about getting in,side when he saw Lizzy and John smiling and laughing.

He looked away and got to his car too, driving out.

***

“Gosh…don’t get me kill with laughter please…” Lizzy said holding her tummy still laughing.

“Sorry babe.” John said and smiled cutely.

The contract was just seven days away and they’ve gotten along really well.

They got to the car and he opened the car door for her before he entered after closing the car door.

“Where should we head to?” He asked.

“I’m tired . I need nothing but rest. Take me home.” She answered.

“As your lordsh¡p pleases ma.” he said and drove out too.

George came back home to find it empty. Alice wasn’t in,side.

“Alice….Alice?” He called but got no response.

He went to her room and opened it but met no one in,side.

“where could she have gone to?” He asked himself as he settled on one of the couch in the living room.

Lately, he has been employed in a company and things has been getting different for good since then.

And he has been thinking of settling up a business for Alice when he get enough capital to set it up – he has been saving.

He sat still on the couch when the door opened and Dammie walked in.

George thought it was Alice as he called her “Alice?”

But was shocked to see Dammie wearing almost nothing.

She wore a white transparent gown with no undies.

He gulped down nothing as he stared at her non stop .

Dammie smiled sed-ctively at the effect she’s having on him.

She walked to him and without a word k-ssed him hærd on the l-ips.

“gosh…. I’ve missed this.” She mo-ned into the k-ss.

As if under spell, George held her by the wa-ist and carried her into the room.

Minutes later, their mo-ns filled the wh0le house.

Cindy got home and met no one in,side.

She doesn’t understand the marriage she’s in anymore. All what they do is talk briefly, eat and sleep.

No intimacy of any kind. And most of the time, Emmanuel don’t come home to sleep.
he always give excuse that he’s working late these days and that Cindy should get used to it.

Whenever Cindy want to try talking things out with him, he’d shunned her down telling her to get rid of the bastard in,side her before she would be allow to talk to him.

“The marriage isn’t even up to a month yet… It remain few days to make it a month….and all these is happening already? I don’t have the joy mum has in her own marriage. At least, I know how they both do like a young couples at home….here I am in a trap and a cage called marriage.” Cindy sobbed on the couch she sat on.

Her phone rang beside her…..Ellen.

She can’t believe Ellen and Samuel had no slightest idea of what she’s passing through in her marriage. She had always cover it up with smiles.

Samuel saw a figure standing at his gate but he paid no attention to it since he wasn’t expecting anybody.

He got to his gate and horned….immediately the gate was opened and he drove in.

He parked his car and got down with his bag in hand.

He heard some struggles at the gate and he looked back to find a lady and Heritage struggling over the gate.

“What’s happening there?” He asked.

“Nothing boss. Go on in.” Heritage said

As Samuel was about taking a step in, he heard the voice he never wished to hear anymore.

“Samuel….!” The voice called.

He stopped abruptly and slowly looked backward again to confirm and truly, she’s there.

“Samuel…pls. Hear me speak.” Alice pleaded still at the gate.

“Get her outta here with immediate effect.* Samuel said and walked in,side not sparing her a glance.

Alice sobbed as she slowly let go and Heritage locked the gate breathing heavily.

Alice cried for some minutes by the gate hoping he’d come out before she dragged herself home.

Samuel banged the door behind him as he headed upstairs to his room thinking of why she’d come for him.

***

Philip was now fully okay and has resumed work. It just that, he’s living his everyday life in deep sorrow and guilt.

No one hear from Thomas again. Peter has returned to school and has vowed never to come home until his parents and brother do the right thing by spilling out the truth to Cindy and her family.

*****

Alice got home heavyhearted. She was hearing some sound but paid no attention to it.

She was about entering her room when it dawned on her that the sound was the sound of no other thing but m*ans.

She stopped walking and traced the sound to George’s room.

She opened the door and her body couldn’t contain the shock as she let out a scre-m.

Both of them disengaged immediately but it was too late, she saw them.

Slowly, she closed back the door and left.

“Are you for real?” Cindy asked for the uptenth time today after Ellen told her everything that’s happened between her and Fred.

“Yes.” Ellen answered in smiles.

Cindy was eating the snacks she got her already.

“Fred asked you to be his girlfriend? So, what’s your Response?” She asked.

“I haven’t respond yet but someday, I will.” Ellen said

“Gosh….I’m happy for you girl. But don’t keep him waiting. You know, he’s too handsome.” Cindy said

“Of course.” Ellen said.

“Where’s your husband? ‘Cause I can see you’re glowing. He’s really taking good care of you. I’m happy for you, you’re so lucky. I pray for your kind of husband.” Ellen gushed.

Cindy choked on the snacks when she heard Ellen prayed for her kind of husband that she started coughing.

“Sorry. Are you okay?” She asked giving her some water

She drank the water and breathed out.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes. Thank you.” Cindy said

“Where’s your hubby?” She asked again.

“Not yet back.”

“Why? This is almost 9pm!”

“he’d be home soon.”

“Didn’t he know you’re in a caring state? He should be coming home early cause of you now.”

“Yea. It just happen today.” Cindy said.

Ellen was about saying another word when the door opened and Emmanuel walked in,side.

“Oh…you are welcome. Your wife has been waiting….I’m leaving already….just waiting for you to be back before I…” Ellen stopped talking,when Lizzy walked in dressing like a pr-stitute.

She swallowed hærd as she watched.

Lizzy held Emmanuel’s hand chewing bubble gum.

Ellen looked from Emmanuel to Lizzy and to Cindy who was obviously shocked and surprised to see them.

“Babe. I’m home. She’s sleeping here tonight.” Emmanuel said and went upstairs with Lizzy.

Ellen turned to Cindy questioningly.

“Explain this scene!’ Ellen demanded
