Being Mrs Spence

Marina interrupted.

“You’re very stupid Cole. How dare you mingle with my private things. What is difficult in respecting my stuffs and staying away from them. You broke my lock and got into my privacy… and you aren’t remorseful about it

“I’m sorry that I broke your lock Marina, I told you my reasons already and at the same time I wonder why you are locking up your wardrobe. None of your stuffs have gone missing before but I keep losing my money every time and yet I never thought of putting a lock to my wardrobe. I’m not a fool, I know that you usually take my money and deny ever seeing it. Despite how much I give to you, you’re never satisfied… the little I kept to run the house, you will still steal. Look at the number of your designers bags and shoes, designers wears in your wardrobe. I lost count when I got to 99. You’re too greedy Marina, I’m in a debt mess because I wanted to meet your demands, You drained me without sympathy during the first pregnancy. You promised to cut down cost if you happen to take in again. But instead of cutting cost and helping me out with expenses you triple your demand. You are choking me to death with excessive spending. I was with Florence for five good years and things have never gone messy financially. She buys groceries with her money, do most shopping without asking me for a dime…. she..

Marina began to laugh.

“Comparing me with your almost ex wife won’t make you any richer. I kept asking this question , if Florence was that good why are you with me? Oh, let me guess, she can’t get pregnant like me… poor barren woman. I beat her twice to it. She doesn’t know how to satisfy your dirty large sexual fantasy… what a boring wife she was. I’m not Florence and she can never be me… get that straight for ones into your empty skull. I don’t care if you die wretched, what I’m after is a better world for me and this child I carry. Is due to your stinginess and negligence that made me loose the first baby. I’m not taking Chances again with this second one. I won’t… because if I die playing the good girl with you, it won’t take a week for you to move on to another sexy lady. Don’t ever touch my private things again Cole… if you don’t want me to dive a knife to your chest…

Cole stood and pointed towards her.

“I dare you Marina, I will bury a Cutlass in your heartless chest before you can think of getting a knife. If not for the child you carry, I would have done away with you long time ago. I’m tired of you, your lies, your greediness, your laziness and even your crazy sexual performance. What is still keeping us is together is the child. And that’s the only reason I’m doing everything possible to carry my child. I don’t want another story that touches the heart like the first that’s the reason why I’m doing everything I can for you and the baby. I took loan so that you can relocate to abroad like you wish and for the safety of the baby. I’m in deep debt all for you and the baby. You have no reason to be locking your bags or keeping secrets. I demand total transparency from you…

The argument continue to heat up. Cole was boiling at all Marina’s insult. He decided to take a walk before he will do something crazy to a pregnant woman.

“I demand to know where you are going to at this time of the night…

Marina said blocking him from leaving.

“I’m taking a walk to cool my head. If I stay here exchanging words with you I would be forced to do something crazy… which may affect the baby. leave the road…

Marina stood insulting him.

He pushed her aside and left. Marina remain in the room.

She rushed to recheck her things again just to make sure none of her private things was not tampered with.

She peeped outside the door, closed it firmly before picking up her phone to make call.

“… my heart ran into my mouth when I saw my wardrobe Aviv. I almost died standing hahahaha. I’m too smart for him. He is complaining of all the money he’s been spending and how broke he was… he thought that I care. I have gotten enough of what I need, my traveling papers will be complete by next week because I paid for every necessary thing. Did you know that some of the baby bump were inside the box in my wardrobe but he couldn’t unlock it. Maybe I will have to move it out because my secrets are no longer safe in this house. If he finds out that it was all fake pregnancy I will be in serious trouble. The stupid man ransacked my bags, he was able to get small change but I don’t really care about that. By the time I’m gone he will know what poverty feels like… it has not even started and he’s already complaining and searching for money even in rat hole. How foolish can he be… him and his mother. They only cares about the baby… unknown to them that I’m smartly playing with everything they got which includes their spoilt brain. By the time I’m done with them, especially Cole he will…

there was a knock on the door. Marina’s heart skipped.

She gasped out in relief when Lizbeth came to inform them that dinner was ready.

Marina insulted Lizbeth for interrupting her before asking her to leave immediately.

She decided to go to the gym house for some privacy.

Marina saw Lizbeth at the dining. She wanted to be certain that Cole was not in the house.

She asked Lizbeth about Cole, she told her that she haven’t seen him.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Lizbeth knew where Cole was but she wish he will also hear all she heard from Marina.

She was shocked, her hand felt frozen on the door knob.

She never meant to eavesdrop on her but with all she just learnt, the fake pregnancy both the first and second, the deceit, the lies and she is a week away from leaving the country. She doesn’t know what to do with the whole information.

Lizbeth heard Marina talk about the fake baby bump that is packed up in a certain box with password.

Cool was in the gym, she wish he will also hear some of this secret.

Marina was certain that Lizbeth must either be in the kitchen when Cole left the house.

She went to the gym house, closed the door and began making her call.

Cole was at the gym house. He sat down there thinking all by himself, when he heard Marina coming he decided to hide from her.

He does not want more trouble or exchanging of words again.

Marina started making her usual call again not knowing Cole was there.

“… The foolish househelp almost gave me a heart attack. I thought it was Cole. Anyway, now that we’re in a secluded place, let’s talk. So… like I was saying, the stupid man ransacked…

Before Marina could say more thing, Cole came out

“So am now a stupid man right? Why are you following me up and down… can’t i have peace in my house again?

Cole said interrupting a shocked Marina.

Her heart beat was racing but she quickly got back her balance. She knew Cole did not hear more than few things she said.

She eyed him before walking back to the house, Cole followed her behind talking.

Lizbeth saw them walked pass, they both went upstairs to their room. She tip toed for the first time to know if Cole caught Marina

“You know I love you my handsome husband to be, Father of my unborn child. I hates it when you gets me annoyed. I wish we will stop fighting for the sake of this our unborn baby. He will not be happy when he’s parents are always at loghead.

“How do you know is a “he”. Cole asked.

“Because a mother knows. I’m having the same signs and symptoms I got during the first one. Is our first baby that decided to come back to us… can’t you feel it…

Lizbeth listened keenly. Marina said something else she couldn’t hear before hearing the sound of two of them kissing.

In no time Marina was moaning loudly as always.. they were already having their crazy sex.

“Take it easy for the baby’s sake”

Cole said.

Marina either nodded or whispered because Lizbeth did not hear any more thing from her.

Lizbeth ran down stairs to her room. She needs to do something with the information she just gathered about Marina.

She will have to summon courage and tell Cole soon before Marina finalize her plans.
