WHAT HAVE I DONE ? Part 3 – Nike investment
Fear gripped Debbie, she covered her mouth with her hands to keep herself from crying out and tears started flowing down her cheeks. She couldn’t believe her own eyes. Her husband was responsible for the death of their only son..
Why will Kingsley take away her Joy?
Debbie tried taking backward steps and she slipped and fell with a thud on the floor. Her stomach began to hurt her, her waist started aching her too. She lay there on the floor crying her eyes out.
She was heart broken. Something occured to Debbie…
If Kingsley can kill their only son, he may end up killing her too. She can’t trust him any longer. Debbie summoned her strength and stood up from the floor. She heard the sound of a car coming into the compound. That must be Kingsley Debbie thought.
She wiped her tears and came out of the room holding her waist. She locked it well as it was and ran towards her room as her stomach kept hurting her. She quickly kept the key back where she had taken it from and lay on the bed.
Kingsley came inside and saw his wife lying on the bed and crying. He came closer to her and asked her why she was sobbing. Debbie told Kingsley she had slipped and fallen inside their room and her stomach was paining her.
Kingsley took his time and tried rubbing his hands around the stomach of Debbie to see if that would ease the pain. Debbie couldn’t hold back her tears. The more she looked at Kingsley the more the tears poured out from her eyes.
Kingsley has always been a loving husband. What has gotten over him?
Something was wrong somewhere.
She needs to talk to him and know what happened.
Ba…
Babe…
Debbie called out with tears..
Yes Hun!!
Kingsley answered looking Debbie into her eyes. The reply of Kingsley with fear in his eyes gave out to Debbie that everything was not alright with her husband. She decided to say something else.
I’ll be fine…
You should getting going Debbie said as she removed the hands of Kingsley from her stomach.
Kingsley felt something was wrong, he looked at Debbie and wiped her tears with his index finger. He tried to kiss her on her lips and she removed her lips. That confirmed everything was not okay. He kissed her on her forehead then stood up and heaved a sigh.
I’ll see you when I come back and we will discuss better he said and left the room faking a smile.
Debbie was restless….
Thoughts started flowing into her head like an over running sea..
What was she going to do?
Is she going to survive leaving under the same roof with her husband?
If he could kill his only son whom he cherished alot what then about her?
If she decides to run, where will she run to?
She is heavily pregnant and will soon deliver.
If she goes to her parents house, Kingsley will still come for her.
What will be her way forward…
The more Debbie tried to answer the surging questions, the more questions come in their numbers.
She picked up her phone to call her parents to inform them what she just found out. But on a second thought, Kingsley may end up killing her parents. Confusion sets in as Debbie ran out of options.
Kingsley got to his business place and wasn’t at ease. He hasn’t seen such fear in the eyes of his wife before. Something was really not going well with his wife. But what will that be?
It’s been a while they lost their son Femi. But if Femi was the problem, why will Debbie remove her lips when he tried to kiss her?
A call came into Kingsley’s phone and it was chief Agazie calling him.
He picked the call and chief Agazie demanded for his presence.
Kingsley went to visit Chief Agazie in his house.
When he entered and greeted chief.
He didn’t reply but was quiet and staring at Kingsley with a frown on his face.
What is the matter chief? What have I done? Kingsley asked curiously.
I warned you….
I drew your ears..
I was crystal when I sternly cautioned you.
Kingsley was still looking at chief Agazie frightfully and curiously.
You were told not to tell your wife about your source of money or show her your secret altar or else she would be killed with her unborn child.
Kingsley was confused, he never told his wife anything. It had always hurt him when ever he told his wife lies. Even though he has been lying to her to save her life.
What are you talking about Kingsley asked chief as his body started shaking.. I didn’t show or tell her anything.
You were careless and she went lurking around inside your secret room chief said pointing at Kingsley.
It now dawned on Kingsley what had really happened when he had gone to to see his wife. She knows everything that’s why she didn’t accept his kiss.
You will have to kill her or loose everything including your life chief added.
Kingsley fell on the floor crying like a little baby…
No no…
Not his wife again…
Not his gem…
He can’t bring himself to kill his wife…
What has he gotten himself into?
In the space of few months, his happiness has gone sour.
This was not what he bargained for…
How did he get into this mess with no return.
Kingsley crept on his knees with tears moving in front of Chief and holding his hands together pleading.
Please I’m begging you…
Spare my wife…
Spare my wife please Kingsley kept begging..
You have 24hrs to do so yourself or you will pay with your life and hers also chief said and walked out on Kingsley.
Kingsley lay flat inside the house of chief and crying his eyes out. All he could remember were the sweet memories he has been sharing with his wife and his dead son.
He remembered so many times his wife has encouraged him with love till he started advancing in Business. He remembered how his wife has always been a source of peace to him. All the sweet memories. He loves Debbie so much.
Then he remembered his wife warning him sternly to leave the business he ventured into that got him in this mess…
Oh What have I done Kingsley shouted. He coiled himself up on the floor and cried like a baby..
