HELD BOUND 2
I
was brought down to earth as Dianne stared at me wanting an answer.
I was caught up between the devil and the deep blue sea. My mind
travelled many miles away from my abode. In the midst of my clouded
thoughts, she held me so close and then lured me into her bosom. It
was rainy and the rainfall between her thighs was heavy. I couldn’t
flinch or say a word as we were lost in ecstasy. The hard truth is
that a part of me wanted to stay with her to have my twins and watch
them grow to know their father and also build a family. But another
yearned to go back to home to live the life I had left behind before
my search for greener pastures brought Dianne and I together. There
was still something that held me from going back home, but I was
afraid to tell her about it because if I did, I might not live to
tell the story. Her heart was glass-made and believe me she wouldn’t
hesitate to send me six-feet below if I dared hurt her feelings after
all she told me she had been through. Each passing day brought deep
thoughts, but the more I tried to make up my mind, the more I was
firmly in her grips.
“Let
me be the woman that will make you the man you want to be”, she
said
That
was on a cold midnight rendezvous while we laid on the green field
close to the house we stayed. So many things were strange about her.
It’s three months I’ve been with her and I’m yet to see anyone
coming to see her. Could it be that she doesn’t have friends? Could
it be she doesn’t have a family? These boggling questions made me
wonder greatly, yet again she jolted me out of my thoughts.
“Jay
I have enough wealth to last us and our unborn children for a
lifetime, make me your wife.”
I
was really in a state of limbo because if she had enough wealth like
she claimed why then did she ask me for money for food when we first
met? Why then was she fierce and hungry when I saw? I shrugged off
these thoughts from my mind. The reality was that what she asked for
was a huge commitment on my part, but was I really ready for such?
NO! I wasn’t, but her incessant insistence on we being together
gave me no option than to commit to her will. Then I decided to stay
with her. I vowed to make her my wife and be her husband. I made up
my mind to share in her wealth and build a lovely home with her and
we would happy together. We celebrated our love that very night in
each other’s arms and our joy knew no bounds. Not too long and
suddenly the moon descended between us and the first crack on the
wall of our love affair took a hit. A parcel was sent and delivered
to us, but it was Dianne who went to get it. When she was back, the
expression on her face was fierce again.
“Do
you have another family?” she asked me. Then I just knew my wife
and kids in the city had sent a letter to know about my state of
affairs. I couldn’t bear hurting her feelings so I had no choice
than to tell her the truth. “Not again!” she raged as a great
flood gushed out from her eyes. I had hurt her like the other men she
had met did. But after a while she suddenly kept mute with masked
smiles on her face. Then I remembered that hell has no furry than a
scorned woman. Her camouflaged actions frightened me the more and I
seriously wondered what she might be up to. My fingers were crossed
and my heart was beating so fast. I felt like a bush animal trapped
by the hunter’s hook trap with my freedom still at her mercy…
