CHAPTER:: 01
He walked inside the house with a
worried on his face. He was
immaculately dressed in a dark suit
and tie, the white of his shirt enhancing
his attractive tan. Dropping his keys
onto a a table, he took
off his jacket and tossed it over the back
of a chair. She watched him as he
loosened his tie and
unbuttoned the top of his shirt.
“Bad day at work?”
He nodded taking a seat.
“I guess that’s a Yes. Dinner will be
ready in just a minute,” she said
heading to the kitchen.
“Emily!” he called out
She stopped walking and turned to face
him.
“We need to talk.”
The tone of his voice was warm and
soft. She walked and sat beside him.
“What is it Andrew?” she asked
worriedly holding his hand.
He didn’t know how she was going to
react after telling her the bad news .
Already things were
hard. It had been two months since they
last paid the rent. The landlord had
been on their neck.
She had threatened so many times to
kick them out or sell their property if
they don’t pay on time.
The kids had not paid their school fees
and worst part they had been chased
out of school. Well
he didn’t know about that yet since she
had planned to tell him after dinner.
He inhaled deeply. He
had to tell her what was going on.
“I quit my job,” he finally spoke.
“What!” she exclaimed raising her
brows. “Wh wh wh…,” she stammered.
She shook her head, a look of
disappointment crossing her face as she
stood up. What the hell
was this man saying to her? He bit
down hard on the sudden urge to go to
her and tell her
everything was going to be alright. But
he couldn’t. Things were bad enough
and soon will sell his
car and move out to a one roomed
house with the kids. She stood tall for a
few seconds, her gaze
fixed to his, then she left and headed to
her room. He didn’t have the strength
to call out her name.
He didn’t bother following her and
opted to sleep on the couch. He tried
sleeping, kept tossing and
turning on the sofa and counting sheep
but he didn’t seem to get any shut eye.
It was morning when Chloe poured
drop of water on his face. He woke up
with a start.
“Hey, princess.”
“Daddy!” she said sitting on his lap. “I
waited up for you in my room last
night. You didn’t show up
to read me one of my favourite stories.
Beauty and the Beast. Why were you
sleeping on the
couch? Did you fight with mummy?”
“Lady! What’s with the 21 questions?”
“I was just asking daddy.”
“Morning, dad!” he greeted.
“Morning, Calvin!”
She looked at him and rolled her eyes.
A useless man, she thought. “Calvin!
Chloe! Let’s go,” she called out the kids.
“Aren’t we going with daddy?” asked
Chloe.
“Calvin. Take your sister and go wait
for mummy at the verandah. I need to
talk to her,” said
Andrew.
“Okay, sir!”
The kids walked out of the house and
closed the door. She sat opposite him
but he stood up and
went to sit beside her. Looking into her
face, staring at her beauty. Hers was the
sort that would
not fade or grow jaded with time any
years. Hers was a beauty that no other
possessed.
He remembered how he used to be shy
around her at high school. How he just
constantly stared
at her gorgeous face? Unable to speak
as he gazed at her.
“Are you okay?” she asked as they sat
by the mangoe tree back at the rural
areas. “It seems you
not with me here. Your mind is
somewhere else. Tossing on the ocean
where yoir argosies will
portly sail,” she said to him with the
most beautiful smile he had ever seen.
“You are beautiful Emily. I would really
love to date you,” he finally said it with
lot of confidence.
It was bythen that he started dating the
most beautiful girl at school. After
finishing school she was
already pregnant with his baby. He
paid bride price and went to look for a
job in town. After getting
one. He went back to take his wife to
live with him. After she gave birth, he
paid for her course at a
Poly where she did her Diploma in
Accounting.
“Andrew,” she snapped fingers in his
face.
“Huh!”
He was taken aback.
“I need to get going. What’s that you
want from me?”
He cleared his throat. He placed his
hand on her cheek.
“If only you knew what you mean to
me. If only my heart could sped then it
could tell you how
much I love you. If only I could give you
gold or diamond, but oh, my dear wife.
I have only my
heart,” he said softly.
“Is that all you wanted to say?” she
spoke rudely.
“I know you angry at me that I quit my
job, but you know very well that I had
not been paid for six
months now. I had to quit. I will find
another job I promise.”
“When will that be? You know very
well that I had been the only one
supporting this family for far
too long. Now the kids were chased out
of school yesterday,” she said furiously.
“I will make a plan Emily.”
“Oh please! I will make a plan..For
how long are you going to say the same
thing,” she said getting
up.
He quite kept for a while facing down.
“You see? Useless of a man. You should
go back and beg your boss. I am done
with you,” she
walked out slamming the door in his
face. SOURCE YOU CAN BE FOLLOWING THIS STORY HERE. AS I WILL BE UPDATING 4 TIMES IN A WEEK www.emperorblog.com.ng/if-only-she-knew 1 Like |

CHAPTER::02
“I am going to sleep. Not feeling well
today,” said Emily late that night.
After she came back from the market
with the kids. She spent the whole day
locked up in her room
and didn’t talk to her husband.
“Emily, I need to talk to you.”
“Whats there to talk about? That you
had been sitting in this house the whole
day, not job hunting.
I am tired of being the man of this
house. You should be the one working
extra hard to support the
family but No instead you decide to quit
your job,” she said angrily.
“You don’t need to shout at me. It’s not
easy to find a job,” he said calmy.
“Listen to yourself speaking right now.
Why then did you decide to quit your
job? If you knew
perfectly well that it will be hard to
find another one. You good for nothing
of a man. I don’t even
know why I got married to you,” she
said bumping into him in the process as
she walked out on
him.
He pulled a chair in the kichen and sat,
hands on his head. Thinking about his
wife and if he was
going to survive another day in the
house. He rose from the chair and as
usual went to sleep on
the sofa, since Emily had locked the
door. Everytime they fought she would
lock the door and
made him sleep on the sofa.
“Dad!” said Calvin tapping his shoulder
“Ohh it’s you. You gave me a fright.
Why are you still awake?”
He sat beside his dad.
“I was just thinking about my life. What
would I be in the next five years to
come? Am I gonna
finish school? Take care of you, mum
and Chloe,” said Calvin with a sad look
on his face.
Andrew just stared at him.
“Calvin. You only 15 years old and I
will make sure you go to University.”
“We both know that is not going to
happen. Dad, you can pretend as if
everything is okay in this
house but I know it’s not. You can try to
fool me but you can’t maybe Chloe. She
is just eight years
old and maybe a little too young to
understand,” he said. “I am a man dad
not a boy that is why I
have decided to stop going to school
and be a conductor.”
“What!” he exclaimed raising his
brows. “No child of mine will do such
thing. And you are not a
man. You will finish school and go to
University, end of story.”
“Says who? You, dad. Mum always calls
you a failure and a useless man. I don’t
want my wife to
also call me the same thing. You my
role model but from the way things are.
I need to step in and
help you also. Mum hasnt found a
permanent job yet. How are we going
to survive?”
Unable to talk, he just stared at him.
Looking at how young he was, he
already knew about life.
Maybe his wife was right after all. He
was a useless man, he thought. He
wiped the tears that had
escaped from his eyes before facing his
son. He sniffed and put his hand on his
shoulder.
“I am proud of you Calvin. You have
grown up so fast but I won’t let you be
a conductor. If it
means selling my car so that you can
write your final exams and go to
University, I will. I am
responsible for taking care of you, your
sister and mother. I am the man of the
house,” he went on.
“Tomorrow morning I will go and look
for a job.”
“I love you dad. All those things I said is
because I care. I always want to help
you. I will finish
school. Every thing is going to be
alright. They hugged each other. Calvin
got up.
“I am going to bed now. You can come
and sleep with me in my room.”
“No it’s okay I will sleep here.”
“Okay if you say so. Goodnight dad!”
“Goodnight son!”
Andrew said a prayer before he fell
asleep on the couch.
Early in the morning he woke up and
took a bath. His family was still asleep
when he walked out of
the house. Prayer was his key of the
morning and the bolt of his everning.
Everytime he rose in
the morning. He gave thanks for the
light, for the life and strength unlike his
wife. He was about to
start the car when he realised there was
no fuel. He walked to the taxi rank and
got into a taxi that
dropped him off to town.
“I am sorry but the position was
already filled. You should try
sometime, next year,” said the
manager of the company.
He walked again and got into another
company.
“The position of Assistant Manager
available. You don’t qualify with a
Diploma in hand. We need a
degree. Close the door on your way
out,” she said.
It was around 7 pm when he started
walking heading back home. He was
very exhausted and had
bad day. More than ever he had so
many things to worry about. His kids
and wife. He knocked on
the door.
“Come in!” she responded.
They had lighten the candles and was
cooking on a primus stove.
“What happened with the electricity?”
asked Andrew as he sat down on the
chair.
“It’s the landlord. She said we must
move out tomorrow or else she will kick
us out by force,” said
Emily. “I am starting to think maybe we
were cursed so that we can be poor for
the rest of our
lives,” she said with tears in her eyes.
He stood up and held her tightly in his
arms.
“Shhhh, don’t cry. It’s going to be
alright,” he patted her back thinking of
a job offer he had
received from his friend to sell drugs at
a club in town.

CHAPTER:: 03
He was playing chess when Andrew
walked inside the club around 11pm.
While his host was
puffing out tobacco smoke in curly
clouds.
“Andrew, my man,” he said his eyes
fixed on the chess board. “This is a very
special night,” he
said before making his next move. “You
know what I feel like being in Bulawayo
this week? A
killer.”
He paused there, puffed his cigar and
let the laughter settle a little. “People
see me like a fool,” the
crowd erupts.
He turned to face him and gestured him
to sit, the muscles of his arm rippling
beneath his white
shirt snagging his attention. He sat
down beside him “Can you excuse us
gentlemen,” he said to his guest and
body guards.
He stood up and led Andrew at his
office. He closed the door and sat on his
chair.
“What can I do for you?” he asked with
a hint of curiousity in his voice.
“Kuda, I need your help.”
“Don’t use that name. We not at high
school anymore. Rather call me
Buffalo,” he raised his
eyebrows.
He took a deep breath, pulled in his
stomach and puffed out his chest
waiting for Andrew to
continue. Andrew was thinking twice if
he could ask help from his former
classmate who was a
bully and now a gangster, loan shark.
He swallowed hard trying to calm his
nerves. Kuda took out
the gun from his procket and placed it
on the table. He sat comfortable on the
chair with hands
clasped behind head.
“Are you going to talk?” he asked his
voice sounding dangerous.
A cruel man that had killed many
people. Andrew thought about his kids
and wife what will happen
to them if he gets involved with Kuda.
He broke into a sweat when he rose
from the chair. His
pulse raced.
“I can kill you right now because of
your silence,” he said with a serious
look on his face.
His heart started pounding at a
increasingly rapid race.
“That was a joke. Relax,” he said with a
laugh tapping his shoulder.
“Champagne?”
“No, I am fine,” he said avoiding eye
contact with him.
“Finally you spoke. You and I are best
friends since high school, Andrew.”
“Except that you are a killer,” he
muttered under his breath.
“What was that?”
“Nothing just agreeing to what you
were saying.”
He poured the champagne in a glass
and went back to sit on his chair. He
took a sip and placed
the glass on the glass table.
“So tell me. What have you been up to?”
“Nothing just home. You know I think I
should get going. Looking at the time,
my wife would soon
be worried of my whereabouts,” he said
sitting up.
“Sit down!” he ordered raising his
voice. “I know you want something
from me. What is it?”
“It’s nothing really.”
He couldn’t do it. Yes, he was broke and
had no money. He just didn’t want to
get involved with
Kuda, a dangerous criminal.
“I was just passing by so I thought I
would pay you a visit. I should be going
now,” he said walking
to the door.
“Andy! If you ever need anything. I am
here hommie. Pass my greetings to your
wife.”
“I will,” he said opening the door and
walked out.
He took a taxi back home.
*
She looked great in her black suit and
heels. She had been called for an
interview.
“How do I look?” she asked her
husband in the kitchen while he
prepared breakfast for her.
“Beautiful!” he responded kissing her
on the cheek. “I better get going. I am so
nervous.”
He held her hand.
“You can do this I trust in you. Good
luck!”
“I really need it. Pray to God that I get
employed. At least the landlord felt pity
for us and gave us a
week. As for the kids. They should be
going back to school tomorrow,” she
said zipping her bag. “I
better get going. Bye!”
She walked out of the house and took a
taxi to the office. There were so many
people.
“Is it your first time to be here?” asked
a lady as they stood outside the board
room.
“Yes!” she responded.
“It’s my second. I hope I get it this time.
I heard the manager’s son is the one
interviewing us.”
“Emily Moyo!”
“I am here,” she said raising her hand.
“You next!”
She felt nervous as she walked inside
the room. Her every step scrutinised by
a man who was
revered and feared by businessmen and
women alike. She studied his face. It
looked familiar to
her. His mouth was set in a firm line
that highlighted the harsh angles of his
cheekbones. His jaw
was cleanshaven.
“You may take a sit,” he said with his
deep voice.
He leant against his desk, arms folded
across his broad chest, as if he had
already decided that
he wanted her to be his secretary. His
black hair gleamed, but the intensity in
his eyes nearly
robbed her of the ability to speak.
“Hey!” he banged his fist on the table
making her come back to reality. “It
seems your mind is
somewhere else.”
She just couldn’t stop staring at his
handsome face. He too couldn’t stop
smiling at her. He knew
her but it was not the right time to
reveal himself.
“Do you think you the best candidate
for this job?” he began asking.
As he raised his brows in question a
flutter of nerves took flight in her
stomach.
“Yes, I am the best candidate. I have self
confidence in myself.”
“Impressive!” he smiled at her |

CHAPTER:: 04
“I think that’s all for today,” he said
sitting up. “I will give you a call.”
She rose from the chair and shook
hands with him.
“Thank you very much, sir!”
He watched her as she walked to the
door, her glorious body. She felt she was
being watched by
him. She stopped at the door and turned
to face him. She smiled at him, opened
the door and
walked out of the office.
“How was it?” asked the lady outside.
“Good!” she replied with confidence.
She took a taxi back at the house. It was
around two in the afternoon when her
phone rang.
Checking her phone, it was a private
number. She quickly responded.
“Hello!”
“And you still got your sweet voice. It
was nice seeing you Emily. I hope we
will see each other
more oftenly. You got the job.”
“What!” she exclaimed.
“You got the job. I will see you
tomorrow.”
“Thank you, sir!”
“Please call me Max like you used to.
Back in the days.”
“I can’t believe you still remember me.
It’s been like 5 years.”
“How can I forget a beautiful lady like
you?”
“Oh please! I am no longer beautiful.”
“I will be the judge of that. Anyway let
me get back to work. I will see you
tomorrow,” he said.
“Thank you, Max!”
He hanged up. Few minutes later the
driver dropped her off at the market .
She had to walk to her
house. She opened the door and
Andrew was busy cleaning the house.
“Ohhh you back,” he said and took her
bag, placed it on the sofa.
She sat on the chair.
“How was your day?” he asked placing
the plate on the table.
“It was okay!”
“You can eat your food. I am going to
take a bath,” he said heading outside
where the shower
was.
She finished eating and was about to
wash the dishes when he walked inside
the house with a
bucket and a bathing soup.
“Don’t worry. I will wash the dishes. Go
take a bath and rest. You must be tired,”
he said politely.
“Okay. Thank you,” she said. “And I
have some good news to tell you. I got
the job. I will be
starting tomorrow.”
“That’s great I am happy for you. I will
just stay here and look after the kids
maybe something
might come up my side. But anyways
we thank the Lord.”
Andrew loved his wife and didn’t care
less what his friends used to say to him.
“How can you pay for her fees? Allow
her to do a course. You are a fool man.
Women are meant
to stay at home, cook for us men and
look after the kids,” said one of them.
“I will never send my wife to school.
What for?” said the other.
He didn’t listen to them because he
knew from high school that Emily was
an intelligent lady. He
wanted her to continue with her
education. He trusted and cared about
her.
“Dad! Is mummy back?” asked Chloe as
she walked in the kitchen where
Andrew was cleaning
the stove.
“Yes, she is taking a bath. Where is your
brother?”
“Studying in his room as usual. He is
obsessed with books,” said Chloe.
Andrew just smiled.
“I heard you,” said Calvin pouring glass
of water. “You should be studying also
instead of playing with your dolls.”
“Daddy! Are we going to school
tomorrow?”
Andrew didn’t know how to answer the
question, since there was no money to
pay for their fees.
“Yes, my sweetheart,” said Emily
closing the door.
The house was not big enough but had
three bed rooms. Andrew always
wished to have his own
house. Since he started working he had
to send Emily to school first. Being an
orphan and the
only child. He really wished his parents
were still alive.
“I will go and prepare dinner,” he said.
At around eight they had their dinner
and the children went to sleep with
their mother. While
Andrew stayed behind washing dishes.
*
The air was very clear and the long
morning shadows distinct when Emily
walked in the office. Her
heels tapped rhythmically as she
walked heading to his office. She
knocked on the door and he
responded with a soft voice.
“I hope I am not late,” she said closing
the door.
She stood before him. Their eyes met
and for a moment it was as if
everything in the balance.
Bodly she held his gaze. Did she have
any idea how magnificent she looked?
A glacial beauty with
barely concealed simmering passion.
He broke the contact.
“No! It’s seven-thirty. You right on
time. Please, take a sit,” he offered.
She placed her bag on the table and sat
on the chair legs crossed.
“I hope you know how to use the
computer.”
“Yes, I do. I did a course.”
“Good! I am the Boss but don’t hesitate
to talk to me. I am a good listener and
willing to help you.
Let’s go I will introduce you to the
team,” he said getting up.
They walked out of the office and she
was introduced.
“Make her feel at welcome. She is part
of the family. You may get back to
work,” he said and
turned to face Emily. “You may go and
start working.”
“Thank you!”
He went back to his office. There wasn’t
much to do at the office. She was
packing her things
when he walked to her.
“Do you want to go and bite something
to eat with me? I know it’s late but I can
drive you at your
house,” he said.
“I can spare few minutes. Let’s go,” she
said smilingly and got in the car with
him. read the story here: www.emperorblog.com.ng/if-only-she-knew-part-4/ 1 Like |

CHAPTER 5
They walked out of the restaurant at
around eight-thirty in the everning.
“Thank you for taking me out,” she said
as they headed where he had parked
the car.
“It’s okay it was nice hanging out with
you.”
“So you not married? “Me? Yes, still
single. Well I am a divorcee. My wife
cheated on me with my cousin
brother.”
“Ohh I am sorry.”
“It’s okay. I have moved on. Your
husband is very lucky to have married
such a beautiful lady,” he
said smilingly.
They stood by the car and he looked
deeply into her eyes. He stroked his
fingers down her cheek,
lifting her chin. Her heart pounded
erratically and a tingle of excitement
raced around her. His lips
almost brushing hers. She pulled back
from him a little, shyness making her
look up from under
her lashes as heat infused her cheeks.
“Aaaa we should get going. My husband
will soon worry,” she said avoiding eye
contact with him.
“Okay,” he said biting his lip.
He opened the car door for her. She
watched, anticipation throbbing in her
blood, as he shut the
car door and strode around the front to
the driver’s side. He looked at her as
the engine growled to
life, his gaze so hot. She sat silently
contemplating what had just just
happened between them as
Max drove. The car sped along the road
to Northend. Tyres stretched as he came
to a dust road.
She wasn’t sure if she felt relieved or
disappointed that he had parked the car
infront of her gate.
She wanted to be with him, his
muscular body, handsome face. Is all
she ever wanted in a man
but she was married and had never
cheated on her husband. He opened the
car door for her.
“Thank you for dropping me off,” she
said standing by the car.
“No problem. I guess I will see you
tomorrow,” he said and kissed her on
the cheek.
Excitement fizzed in her veins, only to
be replaced by disappointment as he
walked straight to his
car. He got inside and drove off. She
stood there watching the car as he
drove off. She took a
deep breath and opened the gate. The
lights were still on meaning Andrew
was waiting for her.
She had switched off her phone the
moment he walked in the hotel with
Max. She opened the
door and Andrew immediately stood up
and rushed to her. He held her tightly in
his arms.
“Thank goodness! I was worried about
you,” he said before taking a deep
breath.
She rolled her eyes.
“Can you let me go now!” she spoke
rudely. “Why were you worried? I was
at work.”
“I know it’s just that I expected you to
come early. I understand since it was
your first time at work.
There was a lot to do at the office,” he
said as he sat beside her. “You hungry?
I cooked some
rice.”
“No! I just want to go and sleep. Where
are the kids?”
“There are asleep. They tried waiting
for you but I told them to go and take
some rest since
tomorrow they are going to school.
Should I go and pour your water in the
bucket?”
“Yes, please. I need to take a bath. I am
so exhausted.”
He stood up and took the bucket. He
poured the hot water which was in the
kettle in it. He took the
bathing soup and her towel and went to
put in the bathroom.
“You can go and bath,” he said with a
smile.
While she was bathing, he was washing
her clothes. He finished and started
polishing her shoes.
She had gone to sleep when he switched
off the lights after washing the dishes.
He layed on the
bed beside her.
He woke up early in the morning to
prepare breakfast for her and the kids
“Good morning!” he greeted as she
walked in the sitting room. “Breakfast is
ready.”
“I am late I will buy something on my
way.”
“It’s seven. I am sure your boss won’t
mind. If you arrive at work around
seven-thirty.”
“Do you go to work?” she asked.
He kept quite.
“Exactly! I don’t want to get fired,” she
said grabbing her bag.
“Have a nice day!”
She ignored him and slammed the door
in his face. She took a taxi at the office.
Upon arrival she
watched her park his car. He noticed
her and waited for her by the car. She
put on a smile that he
could see it from a distance. She was
dressed in a mini black dress. She
stumbled and broke her
heel. He ran to her and helped her.
“Oh my heel! How am I going to work
today?” she said holding it.
“It’s my fault. I couldn’t stop staring at
you. Your wonderful body. Anyway,”
he lifted her up. “Lets
go shopping.”
“Put me down!” she said laughingly.
“As if you want me to.”
He put her in the car and drove off.
“Pick what ever you want. I own this
place,” he said.
“Are you serious? These stuff are
expensive. What are you trying to do?”
“Nothing I have no intentions or
whatsoever,” he said getting close to
her. “Since you….”
He was so close now she could smell his
perfume.
“Since what?” her voice was little more
than a husky whisper.
“You became my secretary. Never
mind.”
She trembled as he looked down at her,
his eyes as dark as the depths of the
ocean.
Nervousness suddenly washed over her.

CHAPTER 6
After shopping they passed by the
saloon. She had her hair done and he
paid for it. It was around
two-thirty in the afternoon when he
drove with her at his house.
“We didn’t go at the office today,” she
said licking her ice cream.
“I am the Boss and by the way it’s a
holiday today. I just want to show you
my house. I hope you
don’t mind,” he said with a smile, his
eyes focused on the road.
“It’s too late to say NO since we driving
there.”
“I promise to drive you home early
today. I don’t want to get you in trouble
with your husband,” he
said.
“You won’t.”
In few minutes he parked his car at a
green gate. The gateman opened the
gate. He drove in and parked the car at
the garage. He got off first to open the
car door for her.
“Welcome to Sauerstown. This is my
house.”
“Wow! So big,” she said looking
around.
“Let’s go inside please,” he said leading
the way.
He opened the door and she got inside
first. The house was well decorated.
“This is beautiful. It looks neat.”
“Take a sit,” he offered. “Champagne?”
“Yes, please.”
She walked around the house.
“I can’t believe I am in your house.”
He placed the glasses on the table and
came close to where she was standing.
Too close. Her
first reaction was to step back, but she
stood her ground and met his gaze head
on, despite the
pounding of her heart and the race of
her pulse. Something in his expression
had changed. He
really wanted to kiss her. She on the
other side couldn’t help but look into
his dark eyes. He
stepped closer and the air seemed alive
with something she had never
experienced before. Yes,
she felt attracted to him. His gaze
dropped from her eyes and lingered on
her lips and she realised
she was biting her bottom lip. The
tension of waiting to hear what he
really wanted was too much.
Her stomach fluttered widly and she
had to concentrate hard just to breath.
Her attraction to him
was becoming stronger. If he turned on
the charm as he had last night she
would be lost. Worse
still, if he tried kissing her again she
didn’t think she’d be able to resist.
“You look beautiful,” he said
softly.”Shall we drink?” He moved
backwards
“Yes, sure.”
They sat beside each other. As she took
a sip, she felt his gaze. In a bid to rein
in her rising and
very mixed emotions she all but
downed her drink in one go.
“Steady,” he smiled. A mocking smile.
“That drink is pretty content.”
She looked at the almost empty glass.
The remains of the liquid looked more
like a soft drink, but
it’s effect on her head was already
clear. Whatever was she trying to do to
herself? She put the
glass down and turned to look at him.
“So,” she cleared her throat. “Where are
your parents?”
“My mother died. Dad married another
woman.”
She looked at his throat as he took the
drink in one go. He looked at her.
“The toilet?”
Nerves made her voice quiver as she
finally acknowledged the attraction she
felt for him
“This way,” he said sitting up.
He led the way and showed her the
toilet. She took a deep breath and
looked herself in the mirror.
Thinking about her husband and kids.
Knowing how much Andrew loved her.
She didn’t want to
mess it up by falling for Max. She
washed her hands and opened the door.
“Are you okay?” he asked. “I heard you
talking to yourself in there.”
“I am fine. We can go back,” she said
walking but her grabbed her hand and
pushed her against
the wall.
He kissed her fingers and before she
knew how she was in his arms, her
body pressed close to his. Fire tore
through her as she kissed him, giving
way to all the new emotions she was
battling
with. She wanted him with a fierceness
that shocked her. He deepened the kiss,
his arms pressing
her close against him, leaving her in no
doubt that she needed to stop things
now. She pulled back
from him, her heart racing, and her
breathing fast.
“I can’t Max.”
“Can’t what?” his voice was hoarse and
he tried to kiss her again.
“This,” she said, moving back from him.
“We shouldn’t be doing this. I am
married.”
“I know I am sorry. Let me drive you
home,” he said and she followed behind
him.
The drive to her house was quite. She
didn’t say anything to him and neither
did he. He parked the
car at her house. She didn’t wait for
him to open the car door. She was about
to walk to the gate
when he called out her name.
“You left your things. I brought for
you,” he said handing it to her.
“Thank you!” she said avoiding eye
contact.
She went inside leaving him standing
by the car. She opened the door and
peeped by the
window. He was still there.
“You back!”
She jumped on her feet.
“Andrew what is wrong with you?! You
scared me up!” she yelled.
“I am sorry I didn’t me..”
“Whatever,” she cut him short and sat
on the sofa.
“I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to make
you angry or piss you off. Bad day at
work?”
She nodded.
“You bought new clothes?”
“Whats with the questions?” she spoke
rudely.
“I am sorry. I won’t ask again, so
sorry,” he said politely. ” Let me bring
you, your food,” he said
and walked to the kitchen. 1 Like |

CHAPTER 7
She tried sleeping but couldn’t.
Thinking about Max and the kiss. She
slowly walked out of the
room trying not to wake up Andrew.
She headed to the kitchen and closed
the door. She sat on
the chair and dialled Max’s number. It
didn’t take long for him to answer the
call since he was
watching soccer.
“Emily, It’s ten. Aren’t you supposed to
be sleeping beside your husband?”
“I couldn’t sleep so I thought I could
give you a call.”
“You were thinking about me?” said
Max with a laugh.
“Me? No!”
She kept quite for a while after hearing
the door being opened. She quickly cut
the call and rose
from the chair, pretending as if she was
drinking water.
“Hey! Are you okay?” asked Andrew. “I
have a terrible headache. I had come to
fetch some water,” she lied.
“You could have wake me up,” he said
holding her hand. “How are you feeling
now?”
“Yes. I am fine.”
“If it’s gets serious. I will take you to the
hospital,” said Max. “You shouldn’t be
stressing Emily.”
He took her hand and walked with her
to their room.
The next following day he opened the
curtains opening way for the sun’s rays
to come flooding
into the room. She was greeted with a
cup of coffee.
“Morning!” he greeted her placing the
tray on the chair. “I bought you some
coffee. How are you
feeling today?”
“I am well thanks. The kids?”
“Gone to school,” he said sitting on the
bed beside her.
“D–n! What time is it?”
“Eight-thirty.”
She quickly got off the bed.
“Why didn’t you wake me up? I am late
for work,” she said putting on her
slippers.
“Calm down. I told your Boss that you
not feeling well so you won’t be coming
in.”
She looked at him.
“You did what?!” she shouted.
“He called a few minutes ago and I t…”
“Shut up! Are you the one who applied
for the job. If I get fired because of you.
You will see.”
“I am sorry I did answer your call but I
was worried about you and needed you
to rest that is why I
told him you were not feeling well. I am
sure he won’t fire you because of that.”
She clicked her tongue and walked out
of the room slamming the door in his
face. Andrew
wondered why Emily freaked out that
way. He thought maybe it was stress. He
needed to
apologise to her. He made the bed and
cleaned the room. He sat on the bed
waiting for her. She
walked in with towel wrapped around
her body. He cleared his throat.
“I am sorry for what I did earlier.”
“You should be. Let it be the last time
you touch my phone,” she said applying
some lotion on her
body.
He stood up silently and walked out of
the room. She finished and walked out
of the house
ignoring him. He just looked at her.
“Have a nice day!” he said.
She took a taxi at the office.
“I thought you were not feeling well,”
said Max as she walked in his office.
“I am feeling much better now,” she
said smilingly.
“I am glad. I will be meeting the
investors later. Hmmm guess I will see
you around six,” he said
grabbing his briefcase.
“No problem Boss.”
“It’s Max,” he said walking out of the
office.
Hours passed. She was about to knock
off when her phone rang.
“Hello! I am back and parked outside
the office. I am waiting for you. “I am
coming.”
She took her bag.
“James. Don’t forget to lock.”
“Okay madam. See you tomorrow.”
He stood by the car and watched her as
she walked towards him.
“Stop looking at me like that.”
“I can’t it’s just you too beautiful. I want
to take you to my favourite restaurant.
Will I?”
“Yes. Why n..,” she stopped at
midsentence when her phone rang. It
was Andrew. She
immediately cut the call and switched
off her phone.
“Your husband?”
“No, some friend. Let’s go.”
“Okay. You ready?”
“Yes!”
She got out of the car and walked with
him towards the busy street lined with
restaurants. They
got inside one of the restaurant. A
waiter came out to greet and hugged
Max.
“Emily, this is my cousin Billy, owner of
this restaurant and at our bidding for
this evening.”
She felt suddenly shy beneath the man’s
gaze. He took her hand and with the
same charm Max
possessed kissed it.
“Beautiful woman you are.”
To her horror she blushed, but managed
to smile back at him.
“Thank you!” she raised her brows,
made her voice light and meliduous,
even a little flirty.
Billy laughed and after a brief look of
shock Max did too. Then he smiled at
Emily.
“Billy, do you have the table I
requested?”
“Yes, this way please.”
Max put his arms around her shoulders,
pulling her close as he followed his
cousin to their table. It
was private and candles fluttered in the
everning breeze. They sat on the table.
“I will send my new waiter to come and
serve you. Enjoy,” said Billy.
Max looked at Emily and smiled.
“You looking beautiful to night Lilly.”
“Don’t call me that,” she said shyly.
“This place is so beautiful”
“Ohh here is the waiter,” said Max.
He walked to their table and she was
facing down.
“Good everning sir and madam!” he
greeted. “Can I take your order please?”
Max was about to order when she lifted
up her head and faced him.
“Emily!” he exclaimed. “What are you
doing here?” www.emperorblog.com.ng 1 Like |

CHAPTER 8
As he sat on the sofa thinking how his
life had been for the past few years. He
had struggled
getting a job in the first place. He quit
his job without thinking twice thus he
regretted his decision more than ever
now that his wife always threw insults
on him. When she hurled insults at
him, he
did not retaliate. Instead he had to
apologise to her and promised to look
for a job. He needed to
find a job. His phone rang. He grabbed
it from the table and it had no caller ID.
He answered it.
“Hello!” he responded after answering
the call.
“Andrew, my man. It’s Tinashe.”
“Long time Tina. How can I help you?”
“I got this friend of mine who owns a
restaurant. He needs a waiter like as
soon as possible. I
heard you were looking for a job.”
“Yes yes yes I was,” he said excitedly.
“Good! You should be ready at around
twelve. I will come and pick you up. I
better get back to
work.”
“Thank you very much, Tina!”
“No, that’s what friends are for.”
He hanged up the call. Tina and
Andrew they used to work together at a
mining company. When
one of them died inside after it
collapsed they had to quit the job since
it was now dangerous. It
was a coincidence that one of Tinashe’s
friends had met Andrew when he was
looking for a job.
He told Tinashe about it.
He took a bath and at around eleven
the kids had come back from school.
Tinashe came to pick
up Andrew. They drove at the
restaurant. Before he started working
he called his wife wanting to
tell her about the job but she didn’t pick
up. He was worried about the kids since
they were home
alone. Instead he called one of the
landlord’s daughter to watch over them
until he gets in touch
with his wife. Luckily she agreed.
“Andrew!” called out the manager. “My
cousin brother is here on a date. I need
you to go and
serve them,” he said softly. “Can you do
it?”
“Yes, boss,” he said nodding his head.
“Good!”
He walked to the table with a small
book and the menu. He was nervous
since it was his first time
but took a deep breath before getting
close to the table.
“Good everning, sir and madam!” he
greeted. “Can I take your order please?”
The lady was facing down. As he waited
for them to order, hands clasped behind
back. She
looked up and their eyes met.
“Emily!” he exclaimed. “What are you
doing here?”
Seeing his wife on a date as the
manager had said it made him weak.
Was she cheating on him?
Who was the man? Refusing to explore
the answer to the question, he stared at
the man.
“May I ask you. What are you doing
here with my wife? Didn’t she tell you
that she was married?”
he said calmy not wanting to cause a
scene.
Waiting for one of them to answer his
question. He pulled a chair and sat on
the same table with
them, sitting with legs crossed. Emily
could not hide the shame. Right there
she just wanted to run
away or hide her face with a mask. Max
took the glass of water on the table and
downed it on one
go.
“I think I should leave you two,” he said
sitting up but couldn’t make a step.
Andrew had grabbed his hand. He
looked at him and smiled.
“Sit down, sir. I should be the one
sitting up,” he said sitting up and pulled
the chair for him. “My
apologies for disturbing you. Can I take
your order now?”
Max couldn’t even sit on the chair.
Emily on the other side could not look
at Andrew in his eyes.
“Emily, let’s go,” said Max.
She sat up and gazed at his husband.
“I will see you at home Emily,” said
Andrew and walked to his manager
who just stared at the
three.
Max got out of the restaurant with
Emily.
“What happened?” asked Billy with
curiousity written all over his face.
“Nothing. Can I go home sir?”
“Yes yes. It’s okay. You can come back
tomorrow.”
“Thank you, sir,” said Andrew looking
down.
Billy didn’t want to ask more. He
immediately sent him home. Upon
arrival, he opened the door
hoping to see his wife but she was not
home yet. The kids had slept. He sat on
the sofa with so
many questions only his wife could
answer. He waited for her. Hours
passed and around eleven 1 Like |

CHAPTER 9
“No no no, Emily don’t say that. You
and I are in love. I am sorry, I am so
sorry I didn’t mean to act
that way,” he said sitting up. “I love you
Emily with all of my heart,” he said
beside her. “Look me in
the eye and tell me you don’t love me.
Think of what we have been through
together. I know you mad at me but
don’t make such decisions.”
“No!” she said loudly getting up. “I
don’t love you anymore Andrew .”
“Why Emily? Did I do something wrong
to you? Tell me, I promise I will fix it. I
will be a better man,
father and husband. Just don’t leave
me. I beg you.”
“It’s too late for that now because I
already slept with him.”
“Wha wh wh wh..” he stammered.
He put his heads on the head. He didn’t
want his family to split up. He didn’t
want his kids to
suffer the distress of their parents
divorce.
“Emily think about our kids. Chloe, she
needs you and still young to understand
the situation.”
She ignored him and walked out on
him. She went to pack all her clothes.
“Emily! Where are you going?” he
asked as she came in the sitting room
with her suitscases.
“Getting out of this house I am leaving
you Andrew.”
“Mummy!” called out Chloe. ” Where
are you going?”
“Chloe, go back to sleep,” said Emily.
Calvin walked in.
“No, mummy. Are you going to leave
me?”
Emily knelt down and wiped her tears.
“Listen baby. Mummy is going
somewhere and she is not coming back.
You going to stay with
daddy and your brother,” she wiped
away the tears that had escaped.
“Did daddy hurt you? Mummy, don’t go
please. Please, mummy,” cried Chloe
holding her mother’s
hand.
“I can’t I need to go,” she said grabbing
her bags.
“Mum!” called out Calvin. “Why are
you doing this?”
She turned back to face him.
“Emily, don’t go. We can make this
work. How are we going to survive
without you?” spoke
Andrew.
“You will make a plan,” she said and
walked to the door.
Chloe could not stop crying, screaming
and shouting. Emily didn’t care less. All
she wanted was to
get away from them and be with Max.
Max was waiting for her outside. She
got into the car and
looked at her house. Andrew was
watching her from the window.
“Are you sure you want to do this?”
asked Max starting his car.
“Let’s go,” said Emily.
Tears of sadness and hurt ran down on
his cheeks. How could she just leave
him like that? His
heart was broken looking at her
daughter who lay on the bed. Love had
broke him down into tears.
Love had hurt him deeply. It didn’t
make sense to him that Emily had left
him just like that. He was
confused. He felt anger, betrayed,
worthless and couldn’t cry no more. He
loved her very much
more than anything. He sacrificed a lot
for her. Only to make her happy. He
treated her like a
queen.
“Dad,” said Calvin tapping his shoulder.
“She is asleep. You can go and rest.”
“Calvin I…”
He couldn’t say no more. He wanted to
stay strong but this hurt him. He wiped
his tears before facing him.
“It’s okay dad. We are going to be fine.
I will take care of you and my sister,”
said Calvin.
He gave his father a hug. Andrew cried
hysterically in his arms. That night he
tried to sleep but
couldn’t. He kept tossing and turning
on the bed counting sheep but he didn’t
seem to get any eye
shut. Early in the morning he thought
he was going to see Emily but reality hit
him hard. She was
never going to come back.
“Dad!” shouted Calvin.
He quickly got off the bed and yanked
the door open.
“What is it?” he asked.
“Chloe has locked the door. She doesn’t
want to open and we already late for
school,” said Calvin.
“Let me try to talk to her. You go to
school. I will follow.”
“Okay, dad,” said Calvin.
He knocked on the door and she did not
respond
“Chloe, daddy here. Open the door my
princess.”
“I don’t want daddy. I want my
mummy,” said Chloe with a low voice.
“Daddy is sad. You want to see daddy
crying. Open the door please. I will buy
you ice cream.”
She opened the door slowly and ran
into his father’s arms.
“Mummy doesn’t love me, daddy.”
“No no don’t say that. Mummy loves
you. It’s just that she had to go.”
“No, daddy. Candice’s mother ran away
and she never came back. Mummy isn’t
coming back and
I know it,” she sniffed. “I hate
mummy!”
“Chloe. You don’t mean that,” said
Andrew
“I mean it. I don’t want to see her. How
can she leave us daddy?”
“Shhhhh my princess,” he said patting
her back. “Its going to be alright.”
He managed to calm her down but she
was in no state to go to school. She kept
crying the whole
day. The only thing that made her laugh
was platting her dolls with him. But for
only few minutes.
Emily did not call or come to the house
since she had left some of her stuff.
Andrew had to call
Billy to tell him that he was not coming
to work. Luckily Billy understood his
situation. Late that
night Chloe was very unsettled
overnight waking up most every two
hours asking about her
mother. After reading her book she
would go back to sleep cuddling her
teddy. Andrew needed to
call Emily the following day to beg her
to come back home.

CHAPTER 10
Andrew watched as his wife walked in the
restaurant. She had called him the
previous night.
Thinking that she had decided to come
back home. He was in a good mood. He
quickly rose from
the chair.
“Hie!” he greeted pulling the chair for her
to sit.
She didn’t respond but sat on the chair.
He went back on his chair and sat
opposite her.
“I am glad you decided to come back
home. You belong with us,” he said. “I am
not coming back home. Listen very
careful. Max never forced me into his bed
or to leave
you. I am the one who chose to be with
him.”
Her words rang loud and clear in his head’
as if she were at top of a bell tower.
Andrew gritted his
teeth against those words.
“So you marrying him for money?”
He maintained his angry defence anything
other than accept what the raging pain
inside him might
mean.
“Yes, I am!” she flung the words at him.
“And I love him.”
He didn’t want to hear it, yet at the same
time he did.
“I have known him for years. We met at
poly. He takes good care of me.”
Andrew was consumed with jealousy. He
couldn’t hear anything else other than she
had loved
Max. She didn’t stop but continued.
“I love him in a compassionate way. It is a
comfortable love. A safe love. Not the way
I loved you.”
Silence stretched between them. A lump
gathered in his throat, almost choking him.
“Do you really expect me to believe that
when we have been together for 16
years?” his words
were sharp, heightening the tension
between them.
“So what? All these years you have been
nothing but a useless man. I always
regretted marrying
you. I was not happy. Marrying you was
the worst decision of my life. You are
incapable of love.
Not even good in bed. You were not my
type. It was a mistake that I fell pregnant
with your baby in
the first place. I never wanted to marry
you.”
Each word was like a bullet in his heart,
each one wounding him further.
“Don’t do this Emily, please. Don’t hurt me
like this. I can’t stop thinking about you.
You the air that
I breath. Come back home with me,” he
pleaded.
She took in a long, shuddering breath.
She couldnt take it with him anymore and
gave vent to her
frustration.
“You so d--n stubborn. It was a mistake
coming here.”
She rose from the chair and pulled her
jacket tighter about her body. For a
moment his gaze
lowered, caught by the movement. He got
up from the chair and took a step closer to
her, his eyes
meeting hers once. She stepped back.
“So why did you come, Emily? Tell me.
Why?”
His accent became heavy and to her
dismay he moved closer, still rendering
thought almost
impossible. She whirled round and
grabbed the envelope from the table,
knocking her bag to the
floor in the process.
“To sign these,” she waved the papers at
him furiously. “To put an end to something
that should
never have been started.”
“Whaat!”
“Sign the d--n divorce papers!”
He said nothing, as if he was trying to take
in what she said. Andrew watched her sign
the papers,
listened as the pen crashed to the table.
Each breath was hard to take, as if he was
being
suffocated. He hurt. Pain raced through
him. Even when she looked at him he
couldn’t say a word,
couldn’t move, as if he had been frozen in
time. What the hell was the matter with
him? Something snapped, as if chains had
broken. He inhaled deeply. The noise
caught her attention and she
turned to look at him.
“I know I was a fool,” she threw the words
at him as if he was nothing more than dirt
at the edge of
the road. “To have married you.”
He tried to make sense of her words.
Purposefully he moved towards her, and
when she turned
again panic tore through him. If she left
now he would never see her again. He
couldn’t let her go.
Not yet. He loved her.
“I love you Emily!”
The words hurried out and he clenched his
hands, trying to keep himself from
reaching for her,
from preventing her leaving. She spun
around and faced him again.
“I don’t love you.”
“Emily!”
“Don’t Andrew. I don’t want to hear what
you going to say. I am sorry I made you
believe that I was
in love with you but I wasn’t. It was just
lies of the heart.”
The words hit him really hard and he knew
he was losing. All he wanted to do was
stop her from
leaving, from walking out of his life for
good. A life that wouldn’t be the same
once she’d gone. He
reached out and took hold of her arm. She
looked up at him, her brown eyes wide,
her breathing
hard and fast. He didn’t want her to go. He
loved her. This woman had healed his
wounds and
shown him how love could be. Emily
stepped back as he let her go, watching
the show of
emotions across his handsome face. His
pain and confusion.
“I have never met a woman like you. From
the moment I set my eyes on you I knew
you were
mine. I love you Emily and will always will.
I am sorry I couldn’t give you money,” he
said and
signed the papers.
“I will let you go. Goodbye Emily!” he said
heading to the door.
“Andrew!” she called out. “I won’t be
fighting for custody. Take care of your
kids.”
“I will!” he said softly. 1 Like |

IF ONLY SHE KNEW * * CHAPTER 12 Gently he placed her on the bed. She leant back on her arms as he stood like a magnificent bullfighter at the side. She trembled as he looked down at her, his eyes as dark as the depths of the ocean. Nervousness suddenly washed over her. It had been a long time since she had been in a situation like this, with a man openly desiring her, his intentions clear. She watched him undo his tie and dropped it to the floor, his jacket soon following. Hungry for him, she let her gaze devour the strength in his arms as his white shirt pulled tight across his biceps. She bit her lip as he undid the top buttons, exposing dark chest hair. All the while he watched her with such intensity she knew she would be powerless to resist him. When his lips pressed briefly against her shoulder she gasped softly in pleasure. Her phone rang. “You didn’t switch off your phone?” “Yes, I am sorry,” she said grabbing her phone on the table. She quickly cut the call when she saw Andrew’s name on the caller ID. “Who is it?” he asked. “My ex husband.” “Why are you still talking to him? “I I I j..,” she stammered. “Listen to me careful Emily. You chose me over him. Meaning you mine and mine alone. I don’t share but if you still want to go back to him. Now is the time because once we get married. I won’t let you treat me the way you treated Andrew,” he said with a serious look on his face. The phone rang again. It was Andrew. Max grabbed the phone from Emily and threw it on the floor breaking into pieces. “What did you do that for?!” shouted Emily. “You don’t raise your voice at me. Never talk to Andrew again. Let it be the last time. I will buy you another phone tomorrow,” he said as he kissed her on the cheek, her forehead, her nose. ” I love you Emily. Never doubt that. I won’t let you cheat on me with another man. I am obsessed with you. Your scent, your body. I want you, Emily,” he husked out between each kiss. “I want to make you mine.” “I want that too,” she did. Nothing seemed to matter to her except being with Max. Max woke up in the early hours of dawn, his body heavy and relaxed in a way he had never felt before. Emily’s scent lingered on the pillow next to him, reawakening the desire that had coursed like an overflowing river through him last night. From the other side of the room he heard movement and he propped himself up on his elbow. With amusement he watched as Emily, sexily naked, appeared to be looking for something to put on. He took in her slender waist, shapely hips and long legs as she stood, her back to him, looking around the room. “My future wife.” She turned to face him and despite her unclothedness looked in. “Morning,” she replied huskily, a smile playing about her kissable lips. “I was looking for something to put on.” “Your bag is in the wardrobe, but you will also find everything else you need in there too.” She put on her dress and walked out of the room. He grabbed his phone on the table and dialled his number. “Max!” he responded on the other line. “Billy, we need to talk,” he said with a low voice. He didn’t want her to hear him. “I will be at your restaurant in two hours.” He hanged up the call and headed to the bathroom. * It was around ten in the morning when Andrew decided to go to work. After calling Emily the previous night to tell her about Chloe, he gave up. “You going to work?” asked Calvin. “Yes, we might sleep at the hospital today. I may need to find another part time job. Maybe they will find a donor for Chloe.” “I miss her, dad.” “Don’t worry son. She is going to be alright.” “Did you call mum? Ohh guess she is busy with her man,” said Calvin. “I did but she didn’t pick up. I think it’s best we let her be. We will save Chloe. You and I,” he said grabbing his bag which was on the chair. “I better get going. I will see you later. “Okay, dad.” He walked out of the room and took a taxi. He was worried about his daughter. He didn’t want to lose her. He didn’t know how he was going to find the money to pay for the operation but sooner than later he needed to find another extra part time job. If it meant working all night he was willing to do so. As he walked at the restaurant after the driver dropped him off a few distance to the restaurant. He saw Max getting into his car and drove off. He got into the restaurant and walked to the manager. “Morning, sir,” he greeted. “Morning!” he responded without looking at him. “My shift is yet to start. So I am going to put on my uniform,” he said. “That won’t be necessary,” he said facing him. “Pardon, sir.” “You are fired!” “But what did I do?” he asked with a hint of confusion in his voice. “You not good for this job. Customers are always complaining about you. Here is your money,” he said handing him the envelope. “But sir..,” he stopped at midsentence when his manager walked out on him ignoring his presence. Andrew didn’t take the envelope but followed his manager needing an explanation. “Sir!” he called out. |

IF ONLY SHE KNEW * * CHAPTER 13 Dressed in a black suit. He entered the restaurant. He pulled a chair and sat down waiting for his cousin brother. “Sir! Can I take your order please?” attended the waiter. “No, thanks. Where is Billy? Ohh here is.” He walked to him and sat opposite. “You know I am a very busy man,” he said placing his phone on the table. “What so important that you couldn’t tell me over the phone.” “I want you to fire that man. Whats his name..Andrew.” “Fire him! Why would I do that? He is a very hard working man and the customers love him unlike my other stuff.” He looked at his cousin brother. “Are we not cousins?” asked Max. “Of cause we are but I can’t fire him. Could you care to explain why you want me to fire him? Because I have never had problems with him. I wouldn’t want to let him go.” “Listen Billy. Remember that I am also the owner of this restaurant. I helped you with the capital. You will do as I say. Fire him or else this restaurant will be put under my name.” His deep voice, with a hint of accent, was firm and commanding. “I don’t think I need to tell you again.” “But come on man. Why do you have to be this cruel? Andrew never hurt you. Did he? You took his wife away from him. He is a saint but you..a disgrace to manhood. You couldn’t keep your thing inside your pants.” “Watch your mouth Billy!” “Or what? I feel pity for that woman. I wish she knew what kind of person you are,” said Billy with confidence. Billy studied his cousin brother’s face, looking for a hint of compassion, but there was nothing. He didn’t want to fight with him. Neither did he want to fire Andrew. Max unfolded his arms and rose from the chair. “Fire him today. Are we clear?” he whispered squeezing his hand. “Let me go Max!” “Calm down. Chill. No need to get mad. We in public, obviously I wouldn’t want to blow your brains out. You fire him then I won’t hurt your wife,” he threatened. “Ciao ciao.” He walked out of the restaurant leaving Billy with his heart pounding really fast. Did he just get threatened by his cousin brother? Yes, Billy was much afraid of Max. After he witnessed the murder of Max’s friend when he shot him. After he found him in his bed with his wife. He stood up from the chair and noticed Andrew. He watched him getting into the restaurant. He looked down not wanting to make an eye contact. “Morning, sir,” greeted Andrew. “Morning!” he responded without looking at him. “My shift is yet to start. So I am going to put on my uniform.” “That won’t be necessary,” he faced him. “Pardon, sir.” “You are fired!” He didn’t want to say it but he just did. “But what did I do?” asked Andrew with a hint of confusion in his voice. “You not good for this job. Customers are always complaining about you,” he had to lie. “Here is your money,” he placed the envelope on the table. “But sir…,” He couldn’t hear no more. He grabbed his car keys and intended to walk out of the restaurant. Andrew’s first reaction was to swift he wanted some explanation. He reached out and took hold of his arm. He knelt down on the floor. “Please, sir. Don’t chase me out. Don’t fire me. Don’t let me go,” he wiped the tears. “My daughter is in the hospital. I am broke and need money. If I did something wrong, forgive me. I will apologise to the customers,” he sniffed. “You are a very good person.” Billy dropped a tear. First time to see someone kneeling in front of him, begging. But he had no choice. He needed to let him go. He cleared his throat. “I don’t care about your daughter.” He didn’t mean it but needed to hurt him so he can go. “Now leave my restaurant and don’t bother coming back,” he spoke rudely but deep down regretting his actions. He pushed Andrew out of the restaurant while he couldn’t stop begging. Even have been thrown out of the restaurant. He stood by the door banging it. Billy ignored him. “Oh God! What have I done? Forgive me Andrew,” he said to himself. Andrew got up and started walking heading back home. After getting fired, he was jobless again. It was back to square one. All hope lost. He remembered how happy he was, thinking he had everything a man could wish for..a beautiful wife, a daughter and a son and a well paid job. Now he had lost everything. Deep in his thoughts, his phone rang. “Dad! It’s Calvin.” “Whose phone did you use?” “A friend. Mrs Stick is removing things from the house. She is throwing us out dad. I don’t know what to do.” “Okay okay I will be there.” He hanged up the call and took a taxi at his house. Upon arrival all the things had been put outside and Mrs Stick was nowhere to be found. “Where is she?” asked Andrew. “Gone!” responded Calvin. “She came with some men and threw our things out. She locked the house and took her keys. What are we going to do dad?” “I am so sorry son. It’s all my fault. I couldn’t pay the full rent. I guess we will need to sell all of these things and look for a one roomed house,” said Andrew sitting on the ground, hands on the head. |
