The doctor left before Jake could ask him any other questions. The last thing he said was that Jake should sort out the bill at the counter before he left. As soon as he left, the dark cloud in the room lifted and Amanda's body slowly went back to its normal temperature. Jake was torn between pushing to find out what his wife was hiding and living his normal life, pretending that nothing was wrong. If he went on to find out what his wife was hiding, he risked losing his sanity. Some things were better left unknown to him, so he ignored his instincts and acted like all was well.

"Babe, what are you thinking about?" He heard Amanda ask him. What was the point of talking to her when all he would get as a response were lies? He looked at her and by God, he wanted to tell her everything. He wanted to ask her everything and tell her about his fears but he knew that he was walking on eggshells with her and it would be a very terrible mistake if he started telling her all that he had to say.

    Of course she lied. What else did he expect from her? He couldn't believe anything the woman ever said and he knew that but still, he always gave her the benefit of the doubt and he knew that he was going to do the same thing again. It wouldn't take that long before he would forgive her without her even realizing that he knew she did something terrible. It was the order of the day at all times. He couldn't help but wonder why she would lie though. What did she do that made her lie and how did the doctor get to find out about it? He was curious to have answers to his questions. The problem was how he was going to do it. Jake looked at Sebastian as if the young man would have an answer to the question in his head. He couldn't confide in him though. He was not that stupid.

    It didn't take them long to sort out the bill at the counter. The bill wasn't as expensive as Jake had thought that it would be and Amanda was happy that Jake could at least take care of the bills. She had believed that she would have to call her parents to help them. It would have been the biggest embarrassment given to her. She had already told her mom that Jake was a big man who could take care of himself and her without getting anything from them any longer. It would be a slap across the face if she had to put a call through to them to help her with her hospital bills. She sat on one of the waiting chairs comfortably and watched as her husband took care of the bills. She didn't believe that it was possible but she was happy that she would get to enjoy her husband and his money. Finally, she was winning.Jake turned to look at his wife as he waited for the woman behind the counter to sort out the problem she said she was having. He could see the admiration in her eyes.

    Jake didn't take anything that she said to heart and he heard her soft footsteps following him as he walked away. He wasn't going to apologize and neither was she. So they both sat down and watched each other as the car drove them to their apartment. Jake had a lot on his mind and apparently, so did Amanda. None wanted to admit to being wrong and none would allow the choices they made to affect their mood. Jake didn't know when he started acting like them. He didn't know when Amanda's character influenced him and made him act like her but he knew one thing, it had to change. He had to stop being so angry all the time and he wasn't going to achieve that by acting like the one person that pissed him off. He looked at Amanda whose gaze was focused on the numerous buildings that the other side world presented and he wanted to apologize till he saw from the mirror that she was smiling. What could be tickling her fancy? Was she happy that he was angry at her? Could that be the cause of her

    The saying no place is like home was so true. Jake let out an air of relief when he got back to his place. He had missed the environment so much and finally, he got to be there and the best part that made a huge smile appear on his face was that he was with his darling wife. They had been through so much together but they were finally together again. Nothing could make him happier. He could see the smile on her face and he knew that she was as happy as she was. Nothing could take their happiness away. He took her hand in his and together they walked into their home. Amanda cared so much for the sophisticated appearance of the house and she never hid it."You know I am so happy that you got this place. It is really beautiful and desirable."

He knew that she loved the place and the more she said it, the more he was sure that she was may not want to get a job because of the place."I hope you will be able to leave this plac

    It was electrifying and Jake didn't want the kiss to stop but he had to put a stop to it when it started to stir up feelings in him. Her lips were as soft as he could remember but the way she kissed was different. She kissed with an urgency, with fire and with emotions. The thought of her learning that somewhere else provoked him and he let go of her. He couldn't even look into her eyes after it. He couldn't stand to listen to her lies about who taught her and where she truly learnt how to kiss like that from. Amanda's hands, soft hands ran through the back of his body and he shuddered at it. Just because she may have been cheating on him didn't mean that he didn't want her to still be with him. The love he had for her was too toxic.He moved away from her, from her touch and tried to focus his mind on something other than what she had been doing with herself for a long time. He found out that it was super difficult for him to do that. Especially when she was in the room and acting li

    She didn't know what to say. She could even say anything cause she knew that whatever she said would be sued hugely against her. She knew that it would mean her downfall. She moved away from him and he followed her. He needed to know what was going on in her mind. He needed to know what changed and most importantly who made it change.

What changed Amanda?""I don't know, okay. Isn't that what you want me to say? I don't know what changed.

    Jake knew he was going to enjoy every bit of his Saturday. Hanging out with Amanda promised to be more exciting than looking at numbers. "I'm not going anywhere with you."And just like the fiesty woman that she was, she had to disagree."Why not? Your boss just said that you could? And yeah, why are you even working on a Saturday? Do you not have days off?"Amanda touched her head and shook it."So many questions. I'm perplexed as to where to start answering from.""How about you start from the latter." "I'll start from wherever I want to. I'm not leaving this office because I have a lot of work to do and you are just nothing but a distraction. I believe this answers all of your stupid questions, so now please leave my office."Jake moved to the chair opposite her and sat down.

The woman had lost her husband two years back and Laura felt like she didn't need to be alone. So she packed out of her one room apartment and moved back in with her mother."Bye guys." Laura shouted out as she closed the door."Bye aunty Laura." In between bites, Cassidy was still able to respond to the greeting."How are you doing over there baby girl?" Jane asked as she looked at her daughter from the driver's window."I'm doing okay mom. This cake is delicious. It's the best I've ever had.""Well, he did say that you were going to enjoy it.

    "Damn it!" Emily cursed under her breath. Every time she was beginning to have a quiet moment with Sebastian, something or someone just always had to ruin it. She could see the spark in his eyes and she knew that he was seeing her in another light. The kind of light that Emily wanted her to see him in. And now her phone just had to go and ring, interrupting the moment she was sharing with him. She removed the phone from her handbag and was more annoyed when she saw the caller ID."Yes?" She was afraid that if she had said more words, the man would have sensed her anger and wanted to find a way to relieve her of it. But Williams didn't need to see her before he could sense the mood that she was in. "Em, are you alright?" He had the same caring tone in his voice which Emily hated. She had never seen Williams as a passionate man. To her he was too bland and empty, nothing drove him to the edge. Nothing made him think outside the box, he was a calculative, arranged and organized man. It

    The bar was filled with people. Andy's has always had a full house mostly because he had good music and his staffs were as kind as the day was bright. Emily could spot some foreigners in the bar. It was a normal thing for them to always occupy all the space there. The town of Los Angeles always had people trooping into it because not only was it a tourist site, but it was also a place where opportunities could come through. Anything was possible or at least that is what they believed. They had one had a cowboy come into town with their hippy-dippy style of dressing. Once he was settled in, he opened a salon and it was his favourite place to go. Soon, he had been transformed into an LA man. It was difficult to transform him but he had the kind of spirit that could adapt to anything at any time.Emily walked towards the counter, but Andy was nowhere in sight. The cute little bartender had always had a thing for Emily but just like Williams, Emily had only considered him good as a friend

    The drive back to her company was awfully quiet. It would have been a great time to have company, like that of Sebastian. Looking at the driver's mirror, she could almost see his perfectly symmetrical face and his tattooed arms. He had a dangerous aura around him, and there was nothing that Emily loved more than danger. Emily shook her head. She shouldn't be noticing anything about him. She shouldn't be even thinking about him. She should focus on how weird and awkward it will be when she meets Williams the next time. Deciding to cross that bridge when she gets to it, Emily swerved into the parking lot. There, she saw Sebastian waiting for it.She could hear her heart racing, she could feel her blood running into her ears. She grabbed on tightly to the steering wheel. Did he have to be so attractive? Did he have to make her want him so badly? Realizing that those weren't the things she should be thinking about, she turned off her engine and focused on getting rid of him.To hell with

    It was becoming clear that all the people Sebastian was getting acquitted with were dangerous men and they all knew Ethan. The man that approached them was covered with tattoos and the more Sebastian observed him, the more he noticed the cliche way the man was dressing. He had on nose rings and an earring on his eyebrows."Hello, Denzel," Ethan said as he stood up."I see we are now mates, if not what would give you the courage to address me by my name?" "I don't believe they are any secrets between us."Denzel's couldn't take his eyes off the little brat that had almost gotten him arrested. He had sworn that the next time he sees him, he would be a dead man. But he had come with Chairman's men and anyone who wanted to live knew not to mess with Chairman. The man could do unimaginable things to his victim but still behave like he was doing nothing. "I don't think we do," Denzel said as he offered a smile his way and ushered them to their seats. "So I'm curious to know, how did a ric

    Sebastian had hoped that he would never get to see the building that threatened to end his life whenever he stepped foot into it. Reluctantly, Ethan and Sebastian moved towards the door and one of the men nugged them along."What? So when you are not chatting like little girls, you guys chose to irritate me by walking like snails?" The man said with anger in his voice. As much as Sebastian wanted to reply to him, he decided to save his strength for when he would need to run away from Maverick and his gang and if he couldn't, he would fight his way out. He didn't mind getting shot, anything was better than working full time for him.They didn't pass through the club as they did before. The entrance was a lot narrower and the presence of two guards gave the clear message of the entrance being off limits to regular party freaks. They walked in the dark for what felt like hours but was only five minutes and Sebastian kept praying that they weren't passing through the human body room. Sud

    Sebastian smiled to himself as he pulled up to the parking lot of the company. He was glad for the conversation he had with Ethan earlier. The man was a pain in the ass most of the time but he did help him get the perspective he needed.Sebastian yelled as Ethan hovered over him so early in the morning. He was used to the man not being the morning type but Ethan was wide awake and staring directly into his eyes. "Man, what the hell?!" Sebastian screamed out as he pushed Ethan away from his body. He reeked of alcohol making Sebastian worry about why he did not just pass out already. That was mostly what he did whenever he came back drunk."Don't you have where to go today?" Ethan was talking about him going out in search of a job but Sebastian knew better. There were no jobs available anywhere. "Won't be going anywhere today," he said as he turned over to his side "there are no jobs in this godforsaken town. So I might as well just save myself from the stress of looking.""So what do

    The weather was pleasant but the same couldn't be said for Emily's appearance. She cursed as she highlighted from her car and almost ran into her father's company building. She waited patiently till she heard the ding of the elevator, rushing in she quickly pressed the button that would open up to her office.Immediately the doors of the elevator opened up, she marched into her office floor completely ignoring the greetings of all the staffs that saw her. She walked briskly towards her secretary's desk and slammed her hand into her table."Good afternoon ma'am." The young lady stuttered as she looked into the gleaming eyes of her boss who was not looking happy."Sandra, what meeting did I have today?" "Ummm. Ma, which one are you referring to?"Could she be serious?"Which one am I talking about? The one I'm just coming back from. Which meeting was that?"Sandra looked down from Emily's face and scrambled the papers on her table looking for her boss itinerary for the day."Umm, that
