Mummy I got you a new husband

RYANS POV

” How do i get my job back?” Thinking outloud, I wondered if I was going to remain at home without a job, with all of the bills pilling up and Tana’s joblessness with her sick child expenses.

I picked up my phone and decided it would be best to send another email to Karl hoping that at the very least he was going to consider instating me back since all that happened was not all my fault.

” I am deeply sorry for all that happened, if given a chance, I would prove myself and make sure everything works out.” as I typed the message, my mind wondered on what had happened earlier and how I was going to be able to really prove myself. I dismissed the thoughts, detemined that if I was given another chance, I was going to be able to do that.

” Sophie is to blame for all this.”I muttered to myself, I sighed heavily as I stared at my phone. ” Was she really to be faulted for this?” I questioned and concluded that if I didn’t followed her. Maybe I would not be in the mess I was in.

I read the text again repeatedly, mouthing inaudibly ensuring it was ok before tapping the send button. I did not want any more drama than there already was as I tried to savage the already complex situation.

” This should be fine.” I muttered as I sent the message and as I dropped my phone and laid down, I noticed the door open and I wondered if Tana was back so soon, she had left with her child for a doctor’s appointment.

I raised my head to check who it was when the door opened, ” oh Tana.” I said as I saw her, ” I thought you left already.'” I added trying to hide my uneasiness, I knew she was going to question why I was not ready for work and was lying on the bed. I was not sure the perfect excuse just yet, but I knew I had to tell her something.

” Are you ok? Why are you not ready for work?” She enquired as she moved towards where I was, a look of concern on her face, I faked a grin as she looked at me. I could not have her getting suspicious, since I had tried to hide the fact that I was jobless, since the issue at the office. I knew Tana was going to make a fuss about it, asking how we would be able to cope since she resigned a few weeks ago to care for the sick child.

“Emhhh, I said after a while, I took some days off.” I added as I tried to avoid her gaze so she would not find out I was lying. She peered at me with a confused expression, wondering if I was telling the truth. I sneaked a glimpse at her and could see by her expression that she was thinking about what I said to her.

” But you did not tell me about it.” She replied hesitantly, not believing my story, as she peered suspiciously. Facing my phone, I responded with a stern voice: “It must have slipped my mind; why did you return? I thought you were already at the hospital.” I said, attempting to deflect the subject concerning me.

She sighed heavily before responding, “I forgot my purse. ” She replied, walking over to the corner of the room where she had dropped it. “I found it!!” She exclaimed excitedly and she walked out of the room, ” ahh, that was close!!” I said as I laid down again after she had gone.

A few minutes later, i heard her voice and jilted in fright, I did not expect she would still be at the house after she left moments ago.

“Why was she here again?” I wondered, turning to face her.

” You should come with us Ryan, since you are home.” She said as she opened the door again, Nah, you should go ahead, I have some work to do.” I responded. ” Ok then, we would be leaving now.” She replied, staring at me for a little while before walking away.

“I would not go to a doctor’s appointment for a child that is not mine, you slut.” I muttered to myself as she walked away, I have been able to hide the fact that I knew the child was not mine without Tana finding out. I was going to unveil everything when I found my child and had gotten what I wanted from Tana.

A surge of anger suddenly washed over me. The fact Tana pretended the child was mine amazed me and I wondered what else she lied about. “How dare she pretend like this?” I questioned and concluded that Tana was just a pathetic liar and I had made a mistake choosing her in place of Sophie years ago.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

” This would be over soon.” I muttered to myself as I turned to my phone. I had a plan and Tana was going to pay for lying to my face like this. ” I begged get on to work.” I muttered again deciding that instead of dwelling on Tana any longer, I made up my mind that i would embark on a journey to find my true child and expose the deceit that had been hidden for far too long.

” I will find my child, and then all of this would be over.” I said again scrolling through my phone. I decided I was not going to relent in my search for Sophie, she had my child with her and I was going to find them both and be reunited with my family.

As I wondered in my thoughts, my phone beeped, ” who is this from.” I tapped on the message to checked who it was from and to my surprise it was the least expected.

It was from the HR department asking the Karl wanted me back, I had expected this message but I did not expect it so soon.

” Yes!!!” I exclaimed excitedly as I saw the message, I guess my message had touched Karl afterall, and that was his reason for wanting me back.
