Jason froze.
*June, what the hell is she doing here, when I saw her at the airport, I thought I was hallucinating cause she was at the wedding, so how come she’s here now, could it be that she followed us? I don’t un-derstand…….* he muttered to himself.
“you don’t un-derstand?” Goldie fired.
“huh” Jason asked wondering if he thought aloud.
“what don’t you un-derstand, the fact that you ditched Miami beach for Enugu, I mean who does that, but now I know why, you did it because you had another ‘Miami’ waiting for you here” Goldie barked as tears streamed down her cheeks, but she cleaned it immediately to avoid Jason from seeing it.
“I don’t know what you are talking about, if June is here, she’s here on her own, I’m here to do business, and that’s exactly what I’m going out there to do” Jason retorted. *why isn’t she un-derstanding*
“you are lying Jay” Gldie sobbe-d out.
“whatever, and so what if I’m going to see June, I mean look at us, we make no s-en-se, instead of sitting here with you and watch the boring night, I decided to have a little fun, so if you will excuse me, I have a night to catch” He said *since that’s what you want to here and not the truth, there you’ve heard it, happy?* he thought to himself as he turned to leave.
“I’m not surprised it’s coming from you, I mean who am I kidding, you hate me anyway” Goldie breathed out and walked slowly to the be-d.
That voice pierced Jason’s alre-ady pounding heart, he had tried to make her un-derstand that June wasn’t there for him or perhaps that he didn’t invite her, as much as he didn’t like to hurt her but he has made up his mind to lock anything that has to do with her in the de-epest, darkest p@rt of his heart and throw the key away, as far as he was concerned, this marriage will not work and there’s nothing he can do about it. But for now he gotta go to work. He left.
Goldie shed more tears after he left. She picked up her phone to call her parents and complain.
“complain? On the first night, no, I won’t dare do that. But I’ll just report him to his parents, ahhhhh…….. no its still the same thing, maybe I should call lady B…. no not the right person, yes C.J… no, I can’t tell my best friend that my marriage has ended when it hasn’t even started. I won’t call anyone, I’ll just switch off my phone to avoid calls after all I’m in my ‘honeymoon’. They should know better than to disturb me” she switched off her phone.
“but I’ll so deal with that prostitute… but wait a minute, what if he wasn’t lying, what if he actually c@m£ for business and then coincidentally… no…no… this is too much for a coincident.. but again he meant it when he said that he is here on business and that’s what he’s going out to do, should I believe that, maybe I should, maybe I’m being too paranoid for nothing, this could actually be a coincidence” she concluded.
 
*************
 
“her phone I switched off mark” Mrs. Anderson complained to her husband.
“I’m sure she’s ok, it might be that her battery is dead, call Jason” Chief Anderson said.
“I have, his own is also switched off”
“let them be, tomorrow you call them, you worry too much, I’m sure they are fine” he as-sured her. “we should sleep, it’s been a long day” he added and rolled the blanket to their shoulders.

“so where are you now” Vanilla asked from Jason’s phone.
“I’m heading to the company, the meeting starts by 10:00pm” he answered.
“I really pity her, you shouldn’t have said those things to her, now she’ll think the bit-ch is really your bae, not fair brother Jay” Vanilla complained.
“she shouldn’t have called me a liar, she started it” Jason replied.
Vanilla sighed.
“it’s ok, have you at least eaten anything?” she asked.
“not really, though I’m really hungry”
“you go and eat, find an eatery”
“I just saw one, Emily restaurant” he replied as he walked into the resurant.
“V I have to go”
“no p, but plea-se, do check up on her, I can’t imagine what she’s feeling right now”
“I’ll try my best…. And hey, don’t tell anyone I called you, this is my business line as you know, I switched my other phones off, I only called for you to know that I’m ok, so don’t tell anyone”
“you got it boss, my cutel-ips are sealed”
“who told you they are cute?” Jason tea-sed as he took a seat near the window.
“they are cute jelly” Vanilla fired and Jason laughed.
“crazy girl, I’m about to order, so goodbye I will call you later”
“k.k bye”
He hung up. A waiter approached him as he was going throu-gh the menu.
“what can I get you sir?” the waiter asked.
“no 2” the waiter wrote it down on his palm sl!pand left.
“hi J.J” Jason heard that familiar high pitched voice as he was texting his Enugu br@nch manager. He thought the voice was pla-ying in his head or he might probably be imagining it, so he continued with his phone without looking up, but the voice c@m£ again.
“has my voice become so tiny, or you just chose to ignore me” Jason finally looked up and almost jumped out of his skin when he saw June sitting opposite him smiling like she won a prince’s heart in a duel. Jason couldn’t believe that she was actually sitting there.
“have you been stalking me” he twisted his brows at her.
she giggled s£dûçt!velyand bit her bo-ttoml!pbefore replying.
“of course not, why would I do that, this is just a coincidence, I just c@m£ here to eat, I always eat here whenever I’m in Enugu”
“and you expect me to believe that, June do I look like a fool to you?” he fired. He drew closer to her until theirl-ips were almost tou-ching. “June, tell me the truth, why exactly are you here” he whispered coldly. His ha-rd voice s£nt shivers down her spine but she covered it with a smile.
“I’m here on business J.J, believe me, this is a coincidence” she managed to say.
Jason stared at her for a while and then relaxed back on his seat.
“June, listen, if you c@m£ here for another reason, it’s not a problem. June I know you’ve been crushing on me or probably, you love me and you didn’t hide it, hell you told everyone we were d@t!ngback in school, so I know what you feel for me. you have always been showing me the green light, but truth is, girl, I don’t feel the same way for you, which is why I have always thought I hated you but I just thought about it, it’s not so bad for a woman to fight for what she wants” he drew closer to her again. “but June, you see this one that you want, you won’t, I mean you will never, as in you can never get it. Aside the fact that I don’t have feelings for you, but also, I’m married, arranged marriage or not, the fact still remains that I’m married and cheating is not in my agenda. So let’s just be friends like we used to be, how about that?” he asked June smiling lightly.
She nodded with a smile. “ok, then I guess I’ll see you in Lagos”
“why, are you done with what you c@m£ for? I thought you said you are here on business”
“and I thought you caught me” she replied with a giggle. Jason un-derstood what she meant and he laughed, June joined him.
The waiter brou-ght Jason’s food and June ordered for hers.
After eating, Jason prepared to leave.
“I have to go now, I have a meeting to attend”
“ok, let’s go, I’ll enter a cab to my h0tel at the junction”
“let me guess, the h0tel happened to be Golden Royale?” Jason asked in amusement. And June shrugged.
“you are one crazy girl, how did you even…”
“you don’t wanna know” June cut him off and they laughed as they hit the street.
 
*************
The rays of the sun attacked Goldie’s eyes immediately she opened them, she shut them back and then opened them again, slowly this time. She looked around the room, and saw that it was still the same since last night except that the candles has burnt down.
She stood up from the couch where she mistakenly sle-pt off around 4:00 am while waiting for Jason. She stretched herself and walked to the be-d.
“he’s still not back, has his almighty meeting not ended or is he with June… no… Goldie you have to st©p this nons-en-se imagination, my husband can’t start cheating on me at his early age of our marriage. Some business meetings do last over night, so it’s all good….. I hope” she as-sured herself and walked to the bathroom.
 
***********
 
“mum, her phone is still switched off” Ciara informed Mrs. Anderson after trying to call Goldie.
“I hope my daughter is ok” Mrs. Anderson worriedly asked.
“mum it’s ok, she’s fine, I’m sure of that, they must probably be having fun now, don’t you think”
“I hope so” Mrs. Anderson answered. Ciara’s phone started ringing and she turned to her to know if it’s Goldie calling.
“is she the one”
“no, it’s someone else”
“Richa-rd ” Mrs. Anderson asked with teasing smile.
“how did you know?”
“you are blu-shing like a teenage girl who is staring at her crush’s picture”
Ciara smiled shyly, she excused herself and went outside to answer the call.
“hey, I said dinner not lunch, why are you calling now” she fired at Richa-rd .
“I just called to remind you beauty” Richa-rd replied.
“I didn’t forget” Ciara retorted.
“you could have”
“whatever. Hey Richa-rd , has Jason called you yet?”
“nope, I tried calling him but his phone was switched off”
“$h!t, Goldie’s mother is going bunkers, we really nee-d to reach them “ Ciara complained.
“relax, they are probably having fun”
“did you hear yourself? Jason and Goldie having ‘fun’, how in the world does J+G = fun, two days ago they equal fight, now fun? Richa-rd go for a br@in check up, you are gonna nee-d it” Ciara fired.
“don’t chew me raw love, I was just trying to cheer you up, relax I’m sure they are fine, I’ll try and call Jason later, though I have alre-ady called the driver and he said they arrived safely if that’s your fear, so come on, let’s forget about the couple and talk about us” Richa-rd said, Ciara blu-shed.
She prayed he shouldn’t hear it from her voice.
“I’m not talking about anything and you better come early or I’ll cancel” she fired at him
“yes my lady” Richa-rd answered and she laughed.
 
***********
 
“where exactly could he be, hasn’t the meeting ended yet, for Christ sake this is 7:20 pm, I don’t un-derstand” Goldie asked worriedly as she paced around the room, she turned to Tony whom she called to ask the way about of Jason.
“so you mean, you didn’t drive him last night” she asked.
“no ma’am, I’ve not seen him since I dropped you guys” Tony answered.
“did he walk to the company or did he take a cab “
“maybe” Tony shrugged.
“but why isn’t he back yet, I’m so……” just then her phone began to ring, she picked it immediately she saw the caller.
“what is this, where in the world are you, why are you back yet Jay. It’s 7:30 for crying out loud, you left since yesterday, just what exactly is going on Jay” Goldie barked angrily.
 
Tony gave her a sign that he was leaving.
 
“hey I didn’t call so you could start ranting in my ear, I called you to inform you that I won’t be back tonight, I’m tied up with work, and I’m kinda sorr… I mean just go to be-d.” Jason stated.
“you are tied up with work or you are tied down on June” Goldie asked suspiciously with her left hand on her w@!st.
“of course, lying on June is too much work, so that’s the work I’m busy with, girl you are wasting my precious time….. June darling are you still in the bathroom…. I’m coming to join you…. Listen zombie, I gotta go” He said and hung up.
Goldie smiled broadly.
“the dude can’t even lie, n@ûghty boy, you had better come back here on time tomorrow and take me to Nike lake, ode…. Anyways, now I’m sure you are not with d bit-ch, I’m gonna have a very long sweet sleep. Good night sweetie”
she whined and k!$$£d the phone, she dropped it on the be-d and entered the bathroom.

It’s ringing but she’s not answering” Ciara informed Mrs. Anderson.
“it’s ok my dear, you guys can go now” Mrs. Anderson told her.
“relax ma, if she see the missed calls, I’m sure she will call back” Richa-rd as-sured her.
“ok, and by the way Ciara, you look amazing.” She commented, Ciara smiled shyly. “and you, take good care of her, don’t make me spill my venom” she warned as she pla-yfully dragged Richa-rd ’s ear.
“ouch, yes ma” Richa-rd gro-an ed in pain.
“have fun you guys” she said to them and they walked out.
“you look gorgeous my love” Richa-rd commented Ciara when they entered the car, Ciara blu-shed but hid it from him.
“you’ve said that like a thousand times” she said, still blu-shing.
“that’s because it’s true” he win-ked at her.
“well you don’t look bad yourself” Ciara breathed out.
“is that a way to say that I look really cute and charming” Richa-rd tea-sed.
Ciara scoffed “you wish”
They both chuckled.
Richa-rd stared at her for a while, Ciara felt his gaze on her, she glanced upat him and met his eyes and her cheeks turned cherry red, Richa-rd placed a soft k!sson herl-ips.
“sorry I couldn’t hold that any longer, I really love you so much Ciara, jokes ap@rt. I love you so much.” He confessed to her. Ciara just smiled at him but inside her, she was in another dimension.
 
*************
 
“shoot! Mum called, she must be very worried, maybe I should call her, but if I call her, she will ask me about Jason….. well I’ll tell her that he’s at work, after all that’s why we are in Enugu, let me call her” Goldie muttered when she saw her mother’s missed calls.
She dialed the number and waited but nob©dy answered.
“and now she’s not picking up, great” she called again and againe and yet no answer.
“maybe she has sle-pt off, I’ll call her tomorrow…. Maybe” she switched off her phone and sle-pt off.

“four the past four days Tony, I’ve not seen my husband neither have I heard from him” Goldie complained to Tony, she was getting so walked up and angry cause Jason hasn’t returned ever since the wedding night, she has tried calling him several times but it’s either his phone happens to be switched off, or it’s in line busy or he won’t answer at all. And that really was pissing her off.
“I’m so sorry ma’am, maybe you should call the police” Tony adviced.
“my husband is not missing, motherfv¢ker is doing this on purpose, but I’ve had it, this isn’t fair, haven’t I tried, what else does he want from me” Goldie yelled.
“how else can we explain this ma, is something wrong between you two?” Tony asked.
“you won’t un-derstand, you can go now, I’ll keep calling his phone”
“ok ma, but plea-se try and take some rest, you look stressed out”
“I will, thanks Tony” Goldie smiled at him.
Tony left.
Few minutes after Tony left, jason entered the room, he st©pped when he saw Goldie sitting on the be-d with tears in her eyes, he was tem-pted to go and clean those wicked tears off her eyes, and explain to her how it wasn’t his fault, or how he had tried to sneak out of the meeting but the directors couldn’t let him be, from one question to another, one suggestion to another and there was nothing he could do, he didn’t even get a breathing space to make calls not to talk of leaving, they merely eat and had only few minutes to bath.
But explaining to her will be pointless, she will definitely not un-derstand, she will call him a liar, and she will even kill him when he will tell her to pack up cause they are leaving, he didn’t like the way she was feeling for some reason he didn’t un-derstand, he hates to see her in tears or in depression like she is now. But still he couldn’t get himself to explain, after all it won’t make any s-en-se.
Goldie saw him with the corner of her eyes but didn’t say anything or make any move, she was too angry to speak, she feard that if she opens her mouth, it will end in blood, either he kills her or she kill him, either way someone will definitely die, so she just kept her cool.
“pack up, we are leaving tomorrow morning” he heard his melodious voice which for some reason sounded annoyingly poisonous at that moment.
Anger burned throu-gh her but she fought herself not to explode, she could be a bit-ch sometimes but not this time, fighting this will be pointless.
“you could have just ask me to accompany you to your business meeting and not honeymoon.” Her voice c@m£ out hoarsely and pained and that st©pped Jason in his tracks, he wanted to turn back and start pouring out his explanation while cleaning her tears but he decided against it, it wouldn’t make any s-en-se after all.
“or you could have asked me to accompany you to your vacation with June” Goldie continued.
“I’ll take the later, maybe next time I’ll make it clear to you” Jason blurted out and entered the bathroom.
Why was she ma-king this so ha-rd for him. he doesn’t want to keep hurting her but she doesn’t un-derstand how he feels, empty.
 
As tears was pouring down Goldie’s eyes, she heard her phone ringing, she picked it when she saw the caller.
“hey bit-ch, so you and your hubby just forgot to call, not even your parents, you must be having so much fun over there” Ciara said from the receiever and giggled.
“husband dumped wife on their wedding night and left, he c@m£ back four days later and tells wife to pack up cause they will be leaving the next day, I’m sure that will make a good headline C.J” Goldie asked her as she sobbe-d.
“I’m so sorry Gold, i.. I really don’t know what to say” Ciara breathed out.
 
Jason looked at his reflection in the mirror in the bathroom after hearing Goldie’s complaint to Ciara. “what is wrong with me, why can’t I ba-re to see her cry, I nee-d to cast this feeling out of me, it’s probably not real, I mean I’ll just end up hurting her and all that $h!t. I hate to feel this way again, not after kir… she died because of my selfishness and now Goldie, arranged marriage? Hers will just be a vegetable case, she won’t last long with me. But is it that I’m too scared to face the fact that I’m… no… this is exactly my fear, I can’t give her what she wants, this ain’t real. I hate it and I dislike Goldie, period” he muttered to himself and unknown to him, tears alre-ady covered his face. He sighed and cleaned them as he his days with Kira pla-yed in his memory like a long forgotten movie. He sighed again and turned to go back to the room but he remembered Goldie was still there. “going back there will only be adding more wood to the flame, I’m pretty sure she’s still crying, I better l@ylow here, I don’t want to die of guilt, the one in my heart is alre-ady enough, I’m done” he entered into the bathtub and sle-pt off.
 
The next morning, Tony left with the remaining bags.
Goldie stood at the center of the room and looked around.
“I’ll miss you my crying room, my comforting pillow and my consoling be-d” she t©uçhed each of them with a sad smile.
Jason stared quietly at her for a while before interrupting.
“listen we gotta go in order not to miss our flight”
Goldie shut him a dagger eye “I hate you” she blurted out coldly.
“the feeling is mutual, let’s go”
Goldie stared at him and stormed out, Jason followed behind.
 
************
“I don’t get it, why would they come home in just five days” Belinda asked as she joined her family in the living room.
“that’s literary the shortest honeymoon ever” Andora spat out.
“well, I guess Jason is done with his business meeting” Dr Jackson stated.
“and that’s it? Did they go there just because of his meeting, they went their on a honeymoon as well, can’t he respect that, how could he do this to that poor girl” Mrs. Jackson fired.
“because he’s selfish” Andora blurted out.
“he’s not selfish, he just doesn’t want Goldie to feel so lonely cause he knows very well that he won’t be able to keep her company. That’s why he decided that they should come back. You guys, check it out, a couple that knows nothing about each other on a honeymoon, I mean what exactly will they be doing, pla-ying chess or dice game, come on, it doesn’t work that way. It must have been very bad and Jason couldn’t continue with it, maybe because he doesn’t want Goldie to feel hurt, and you guys are here getting angry, he wants the best for Goldie can’t you see, even though he can’t admit it” Vanilla argued.
“ok, I vote for Vanilla, she could be right” Belinda raised her hand up.
“oh plea-se, she’s just supporting him as always” Andora spat.
“whatever, let’s just wait for them to come back” Dr Jackson said.
“are they coming here? I thought they would be staying in Jason’s house from now” Vanilla asked.
“of course, the driver will just take their bags home while they will come and say hi according to Jason though” Mrs. Jackson answered.
“well in that case, I better go prepare lunch” Belinda said and stood up.
“good idea, Andora and Vanilla, you girls should join her in the kitchen” Mrs. Jackson suggested.
“what!!” Andora spat out.
“never again” vanilla added.
“will you two lazy bones go help out in the kitchen” Dr Jackson barked at them.
“but dad…” they tried to argue.
“if you don’t enter that kitchen, I’ll cut off 10% of your allowance for this month, I meant it” he threatened.
“I’m alre-ady in the kitchen” Andora stood up and rushed into the kitchen while Vanilla gro-an ed as she followed behind.
