{Let Me Love You}
Angelo’s pov
I sat on the sofa just staring at Tessy’s photo
I miss her
Its been three days since she was discharged from the hospital ?… And she has refused to see me neither picking my calls
Geez! This could have been me
Shutting her out for indirectly cheating on me but… I can’t, I love her
Wait, do I?
Well, I think of her everyday.. And hmm, how do I know if its really love
Oh, ?look how pretty Tessy looks in this picture
I remember when we first met… My aunt kept talking about her
Yea, my parents are gone.. Just our aunt who has aged is the one that took care of Gino and I as her own
The door bell rang…
I ignored it
But then… What if its Tessy, I really wanna see her
I opened the door to see Tessy’s only friend, Ashley standing there with her cute Bob hair cut
She smiled shyly
“Good to see u Soldier Angelo “she said taking my hand for a shake
“Angelo’s fine “I said
She came into the house fully
“Tessy se-nt me.. To take her clothes, shoes and other stuff “she said
I couldn’t believe my ears
Did Tessy ever love me?? How could she want this..
“Where’s her room? “Ashley asked
“You are not taking anything Ashley.. You can leave now “I said coldly
She g@sped
“Do u think I wanted to be here?! “, she yelled “look, I took a week off to help Tessy get sobber so pls just let me do this and get bck to her before she does something crazy ”
“So she’s really sad about leaving me “I muttered
Ashley nodded
“She almost… “She paused
“What “I asked
“She almost… Drowned herself in the bathtub ? last night.. ” she muttered
I panicked
“Ashley… I have a plan to just let her see me.. “I said
She nodded “am in… ”
Ashley stayed in Tessy’s room while I waited patiently for Tessy to arrive
Ashley has been here for two hours, who wouldn’t be worried
Soon, a knock came at the door
I opened the door, Tessy
She looked healthy and nothing much changed just that she’s getting a bit… Bigger
She pushed me aside and walked in
“Ashley! “She yelled
She pressed her phone and soon Ashley’s phone began vibr@ting in my pocket
Tessy glared at me
“Provide Ashley now, so we can leave… You can have the clothes… I don’t nee-d them anyway “she said in one breath
“Tessy, we nee-d to talk “I stressed
She folded her arms
“Nothing you’ll say is ever gonna make me change my mind ”
I approached her slowly
“We’ve been married for six months now Tessy please don’t do this, we have to make this thing work… Pls ” I pleaded
She bit her l-ip
“Am sorry Angelo “she said shaking her head
“Am sorry too… “I said and crashed my l-ips on hers
I felt her heart beat… So fast
After she broke the ki$$ to catch her breath
“I still can’t Angelo, I…. Am a s-x addict, and… “She paused
“I don’t care if u are Tessy… Am also an addict my self ”
She began crying
“Please let me go… ”
“Tessy, look at me ” I said and she did
“I love you… Very much “I said
She slowly hu-gged me as tears fell free from her eyes
I felt her ki$$ my ne-ck slowly
“Promise me one thing Angelo, you’ll always love me and be there for me… “She said
I nodded
“Till death Tessy “we pulled away from the hu-g
“Since we had a screwed up honeymoon ??? let’s have another one… Somewhere far and awesome “I suggested and she smiled
She kept her hand on my abs
“Hope no one tou-ched this while I was gone “, she said sarcastically
“No one Tessy, its all urs “I said p-ulling her to my self
I felt shy when she noticed I was ha-rd
“Looks like you nee-d me just like I nee-d u ” she muttered
I ki$$ed her
Just then, Ashley came downstairs
She rolled her eyes
“My babysitting days are over “she stressed
“You can go now Ashley, I nee-d my wife now… “I said
She laughed
“I think my boyfriend nee-ds me too and badly, we hadn’t had chance cause cry baby Tessy was in the house ” Ashley said
Tessy smiled shyly and hid her head on my che-st
Ashley left and we got down to business
??Go throu-ghthe darkest of days
Heaven’s a heartbreak away
Never let you go
Never let me down…
??its been a hell of a ride
Driving the edge of a knife
Never let u go
Never let me down…
??So don’t u give up, na na na
Cause I wont give up now now
Let me love you
Let me love you
??
Tessy’s pov ?
As Angelo and I made love, my mind went back to what the doctor told me earlier
“Congratulations Mrs Tessy, you’re two weeks pregnant… ”
Gosh!! I felt shocked
Last time I mentioned a child Angelo was mad at me…
What do I do??
I won’t tell him.. But the baby…
I felt Angelo ki$$ me “sit ti-ght “he murmured and then he increa-sed his tempo
If this guy knew a baby is on the way, he won’t be this fast…

Chapter Nineteen ?
Tessy’s pov
“An ab-ortion!! Tessy, you must be crazy! “Ashley yelled
I quickly covered her big mouth with my palm
“Don’t yell girl! “I said
She nodded and I re-moved my hand from her l-ips ?
“Tessy, you’re not doing it “she whispered
I shook my head
“Its still still removable and tiny “I retorted
I felt an ear splitting slap rest on my cheek in a twinkling of an eye
She slapped me
“Are you back to ur se-nses now?! “She half yelled
I ru-bbe-d my cheeks, that hurts so bad
“You don’t un-derstand Ash, this baby’s gonna come inbetween Angelo and I… “I said
“What makes u say that? “She asked “do u think Angelo is a fool or something? “She asked
I frowned
“Wait a minute… What’s really ur reason? ” Ashley asked
Ah, she caught me
“There has been a rebel attack at the far country side… ?” I slowly said
Ashley g@sped
“He’s leaving… ”
“Very soon “I said completing her statement
She ran out of words
How can I stay Alone in this condition?? And I wonder how long he’s gonna be staying there?
Oh? I so much hate this
Angelo’s pov
After Tessy left to see Ashley, I got a text from Jumica,
She wanted to see me
I met her later
We were in a public place so… No bad stuff
“I want to apologize for what happened… I was careless and quite a nose poker… Endangering ur wife, please forgive me… ” she said
“Its okay, I hold no grudges… U were just a toy.. Not involved in the criminal acts “I said
She nodded and smiled
“Sir, how’s ur wife? “She asked
“She’s fine “I said
“Okay… We’ll see when you come back from eliminating the rebels “, I nodded
She saluted me and left
I left too
Time to go get ready to leave… Hope Tessy would do just fine without me… At least till the rebellion attack subsides
Huh…
Tessy’s pov
Ashley couldn’t stop sobbing as we arrived at the hospital
I held her
“Stop worrying ‘I said
She hit me
“Are u mad?! You are about to murder ur child and u expect me to be cool about it?! ” she yelled at me
People were beginning to stare
I dragged her towards the counter
“Am the one doing this Ashley so pull urself together “I said
“I’ll still get pregnant but that would be when Angelo is ready to be a father and is there for our baby “I said
Ashley kept crying
“Pls, can I talk you out of this? “She asked and I shook my head
We met the doctor, I was really scared but… Oh God, can I do this??
“Am sorry mrs Tessy but an-alremoval is not fit for you because you are very young and ur vaginal is um… In short words, we can’t do it that way “Doc said
I held Ashley
“Then how… “I stammered
“There is this powerful Tonic that will make it become invisible and u won’t even feel it when the baby evacuates from ur tube “he said
Hmm…
“This is crazy! Am calling Angelo right now… ” Ashley yelled operating her phone
I stopped her
“Be a good supportive friend for once… “I said angrily
She rolled her eyes
I turned to the doctor
“I’ll have the tonic pls… “I said
I felt Ashley pinch me
Am scared myself
••••••••••At home•••••••••••

After bathing, I got ready for be-d in my pyjamas
I walked into the room and Angelo was staring at me weirdly
“Is it me or have u been acting nervous since u got back from wherever You and Ashley went to? “He asked
I smiled a bit
“You’re too interrogative Hubby “I said laying beside him
He looked at me and scoffed
“Just trying to be on ur safe side wifey… “He muttered
I shrugged
I looked at the clock, time to go have a gulp of that tonic
Am gonna be taking it for five days…
I hope what doing is right
I got up
“Be back on a sec “I said before climbing out of be-d
I secretly gra-bbe-d my bag and walked in to the bathroom
I brou-ght out the tonic
I read the content but it was written in French
I ignored it
And slowly I opened the bottle…
