?Ambrose POV?

I slept at the doorstep, I jumped off the floor when i heard the cracking of the door.

"Good morning baby" I tried holding her but she pointed a finger at me and gave me a fierce look.

"Beatrice we can..........." She cut me short by putting a palm on my mouth and pushing me off.
She walked down the stairs and I followed.

"Do you know where I slept? Baby on the cold floor. I am truly sorry" I said as we both found ourselves in the kitchen.

"Beatrice" I called out again when she ignored me.

"What exactly do you want from me?" she thundered, folding her hands under her breast.

"Just forgive me please" I moved towards her and went on my kneels.

"You are joking" She moved away from me and walked up to the kitchen zink.

"I would do anything to keep you and you know it. I couldn't go against your wish by breaking your virginity before the wedding" I stood behind her, trying as much as possible to give some gaps between us.

"You promise not to pester me for pre marital sex, you did cheat" She turned around hitting my chest with her soapy hands.

"And that's why I had to get an alternative to ease my urge" I watch her sterilize some cups.

"Let it continue then, you think you are the only one that can cheat? You don't know me"
My eyes bulged, does she have someone too?

"You are having extra marital sex or some kind of hidden relationship?" I asked with a shaking voice.

"Well, maybe!" She gave a light giggle and my head spin.

"Is that why you sex starve me? He's giving it to you abundantly right?" I turned her around and held her shoulder firmly.

"Let me go" She struggled with me but I was red, I wasn't seeing the pains she's feeling.

"How many times has he taken you to bed?" I fired pushing her to the wooden cupboard sitting at the heart of the kitchen.

"How many times what? I am hurting" She cried out as I pined her to the cupboard firmly.

"Who's he?" I shook her vigorously letting go off an arm and holding her neck.

"There's no he" She struggled to say. She kicked me hard on my manhood and we both fell to the ground panting heavily.

I held my manhood in pains while she held her arms and neck.

"Tell him, I would kill him if I get my hands on him" I fired still in pains and holding my manhood.

"So you can't deal right? It hurts a cheat to be cheated on?" She thundered. She rested her back on the cupboard while I sat opposite her.

"Beatrice, I swear by my blood, since we got married I haven't looked at another woman. Why would you have to keep a concubine? Why?" It's really stupid when a man just cry over silly things, when it comes to people I love, I let the tears flow.

There was silence, she sniffed and spoke calmly "There's no he"

?Haira POV?

"There's no he" I said calmly looking straight at him, he frowned and shook his head.

"The first impression is always right" he said as tears rolled down his cheeks.
I was touched, I crawled towards him and took a seat next to him.

"I would swear with the Holy Book that none have seen my nakedness aside you" I said trying to keep my neck in place as it really hurts.

"I am sorry" He apologised when he saw the discomfort I was having with my neck.

"I am sorry too" I apologized calmly feeling bad for hitting him on a delicate part.

He pulled me into him and patted my back.

"I can't take it, please don't have an eye for another, it drives me nut" He pleaded and I raised my head up to nod but I felt a striking pain across my neck.

"Ouch!" I made a howling sound.

he lifted my chin up and looked under it.

"It's bad, red and sustained external injury, you need to see the doctor now" He stood up and held his left hand down asking me to hold on it while he pulls me up.

"I am fine, it's just got bad because I had an injury from mom's attack, a little warm massage would help" I don't want to visit the clinic, It reminds me of the rape.

"Don't argue, let me get you ready" he insisted as he carried me in the bridal style.

"You would get your manhood checked, I am scared something might be broken" I said staring innocently into his eyes.
He laughed and I beat his chest "What's funny?"

"Nothing, I am surprised my wife is concerned about my manhood oh she doesn't want to miss any of those sweet nights" he giggled and I pouted.

"C'mmon, I am just worried about your general health, who cares about the sweet nights? You are the freak here" I said as he put me down on the bed

?Haira POV?

I just visited Ambrose's home and I met new occupants, The occupants seems not to even know him or his whereabouts. I stood in front of the flat house and stare at it. Sometimes ago, I was breaking things in this house, I was taken to bed severally in this house. I jumped round this house with my boyfriend few months back. Now, it was Haira jumping around somewhere with my ex.

I got into car and stopped by his favourite restaurant, I still don't know how to cook good food, they end up salty or burnt. cooking is really not easy and I still wonder how this chefs cook so easily.

"Please add little salad" I told the server. I chose a sit at the extreme end of the room and filled my eyes with the people and their activities.

I began to imagine Ambrose taking the order on my behalf and bringing the food to my table. I lost something good! I don't even know where he stays now, I still cant believe he trashed me out of his life completely.

"Only God knows what you are thinking so deep" Someone said throwing a bunch of key across my table. I looked up to see fiks.

"Hi" I greeted.

"Have you checked your status?" he asked, his two hands interlocked and stretched over the table.

"Status?" I asked with bulgy eyes.

"hiv status"

"What? Why would you say that? God forbid" I responded my heart shaking out of it place.

"Am just saying, you look so sick and the first thing that came to my head is HIV"

"I have alot on my head, I look sick doesn't mean I am positive" My food was served and I started gobbling it hungrily.

"So, what's it? Wanna share?"

I looked at him, closed my eyes and breathed in.

"I miss Ambrose, I don't know why I took him for granted. What was I doing with you in the first place? You ruined me" I banged my fist against the table getting a few persons attention.

"No one ruined anyone, it was meant to be. Ambrose was done enduring so, he left. He's doing good with Haira and I think you should get up and do something too"

"Do you know where he stays?" I quickly adjusted on my seat hoping to hear something positive.

"You want to know?

"Yes please"

"I don't trust you, don't go there and ruin them. They are happy" He stood up and made to leave.

"Please wait" I ran towards the counter and paid for my food. I ran after Fiks and caught up with him.

"I miss him, I just need him around me nothing more. I swear I wouldn't ruin their home"

"Then you would have to promise me that you wouldn't mention it to them that I told you where they live"

"I won't, you have my words" I sincerely made the promise.

"GRA?" I exclaimed when he told me the address.

"What? Ambrose got the money, he got a lot from his father and Haira is helping him invest seriously, he told me he wants to take her on a vacation, you know she has not gotten over the rape" He flung his car door open and sat at the wheel.

"She must be so happy now" I tried to smile but smile failed me, I don't know what I felt maybe jealousy or hatred.

"You can say that again, He wants to buy her a house at Dubai, I shouldn't be telling you this because only I and Ambrose knows about it but, I am just overwhelmed, my friend is really happy!"
