Chapter 77 COME BACK TO ME
1789words
How could I ever be able to refuse him for anything and especially when he looks so damn sexy.
My hands subconsciously go into his sweaty hair and start moving slowly as he rests his head on my bare chest, his breath hot on my skin, still giving me goosebumps.
"Hubby…" I call him out after a while.
"I think there is some issue going on between Dad and Ann… Do you know anything regarding it?" I ask him in a low voice.
He shakes his head and then looks up at me, "What happen?"
Uhmm… Biting my lips, I reveal all the things that happened in my parent's home and he frowns badly, "You should have called me, Tessy." he looks annoyed.
"I didn't think it was a good idea and besides Cyril is doing fine now," I tell him to decrease his anger. "I am just worried about my mother she has become old and with all the house chores she is not able to manage them on her own now," I tell him my worries and finally he passes me a smile.
"You love your mother a lot," he states.
"I don't think any child could ever hate their mother or father," I tell him my thoughts and suddenly Andrew gets up from me making me wince.
"F**k, Tessy… We forget the condoms.." He exclaims and my face turns pale. "What now?" I ask.
"I don't know," He says cluelessly, and then leaning back on the seat, he closes his eyes in stress. "I had bought a packet of condoms on my way… It's just…" He tries to say something and then stops, he then opens his eyes and tilts his head towards me, "You distract me a lot."
He put all the blame on me and I sneer disdainfully.
"I can say the same for you."
"Really? And how exactly it's distracting to you, huh?" He questions and then pulls me suddenly to sit on his lap.
"I can't tell," I shrug flushing red.
"Why…?" He asks, raising his brow.
"You know why…" I tell him and he laughs, "This is so flawless, let me leave some marks, here." He says and then leaning down he starts assaulting my breasts with his sweet tongue marking me with multiple marks.
And after that, we continue our passion but this time with a condom. Later, I got so tired that I couldn't even walk and Andrew brings me back to our room in his arms, we sleep without taking a bath and in the morning we take a bath together.
As we walk down at the dining table happily, Miss Celine greets us politely, Me and Andrew start digging into our breakfast while teasing each other continuously with our touches when suddenly we hear a DING
And then the clicking sound of heels follows.
I and Andrew look at Ann in unison and the color on our faces fades not because Ann has returned back but because we have started the breakfast without her.
"Ann, when did you come?" Andrew asks, the shock in his voice is visible and he then quickly walks over to Ann to greet her politely.
"Last night," Ann tells him in a clipped voice, "Oh, we didn't know about your arrival, Ann." Andrew starts to explain when her eyes land on me, "Tessa, how are you?" She asks and I don't know why but her words give me a frightening aura as I start coughing on the piece of omelet that I wasn't able to gulp down from Ann's sudden entry.
COUGH… COUGH… COUGH…
Andrew walks over as he hands me a glass of water and then he raises his arm to rub my back but stops midway when he notices Ann's presence behind him, hence he dismisses the thought of rubbing my back and waits patiently for me to get stable.
Ann comes over and sits in her place not saying a single word more she starts eating her breakfast. Andrew pulls his chair away from mine cautiously and then sits back on his chair.
We start eating our breakfast soberly, sitting beside each other as complete strangers.
Andrew leaves for the office after kissing my cheek as usual and Ann follows behind leaving me alone at the dining table.
Miss Celine comes over to clean the table and I ask her curiously, "Miss Celine, when did Ann come back home?"
"Around 6, I guess." She says and my face turns pale from the fear, "You mean before the dinner?" I gasp, frightened.
"Yes, but she didn't come down for the dinner and neither did she ask for anything, she stays in her room all the time." Miss Celine informs and I sigh in relief.
But still, I should tell Andrew about this.
In the afternoon, I make a few calls to Andrew but he didn't answer and when he returns home he looks pretty much exhausted and then informs me that he is going to leave for three days on some business trip and I don't have any choice but to nod my head obediently.
I pack his suitcase and with a heavy heart, I send him away.
He gives me a long deep kiss before leaving and promises to stay in contact with me every time.
This is the first time he is leaving for a business trip making me sad and lonely. I hope he comes back soon because I am so much used to being in his company all the time and sleeping with his arms wrapped around me, How am I able to live without him?
Still, I try to give many reasons to my heart to stay calm and positive, it's just three days only three days.
****
"Miss you look beautiful." Miss Celine compliments me with a wide smile, It's been three days since my husband's business trip, and today he is coming back home.
I am wearing a bright red sleeveless dress with frill around my neck, waist, and my abdomen, it has a slight cut on the left revealing my shaved and clean thighs. I am wearing heavy makeup with bright red lipstick, our wedding ring shines on my finger like a crown.
I keep looking at my phone, Andrew had told me that he would call me once he will land safely. I couldn't hide my joy and excitement, my husband is coming back after just three days and it feels like an eternity to me.
I stand at the door and wait for him patiently when a voice startles me, "What are you doing here, Miss Celine?"
I turn and see the furious Ann, F**k...
"We are waiting for Andrew to come back," I answer instead of Miss Celine.
Ann look at me furiously for a moment and then her gaze soften, "Oh Tessa, dear, Andrew's flight has been delayed, he isn't going to come back soon."
BOOM
She reveals and that news makes my heart sink deeper, No… No… This shouldn't be the truth… She is joking… The first thought that hits my mind.
"Let's go inside, everyone." She orders and then turns but I didn't follow her, she stops and then looks at me, "Tessa." She calls out my name and I look at her.
"No, Andrew hasn't informed me yet about the delay of his flight," I say as an excuse and then clench my phone tightly in my arms. Please… Please… come back.
"But he has informed me…" Ann says and I look at her expressionlessly, my heart seems to go numb and so as my emotions, only Andrew's arrival is important for me now and nothing else.
Seeing me glued to my place, Ann says sharply, "If you want to wait, go ahead. No one will stop you, but don't step out of the house." I nod my head in response and then she leaves with Miss Celine while I sit alone in the crystal room waiting for my husband to come back or give me a call at least.
THE NUMBER YOU ARE TRYING TO REACH IS NOT AVAILABLE, PLEASE TRY LATER.
I call my husband's number for the whole night but all I hear in reply is this one sentence again and again. I sit on the ground tiredly, my eyes getting heavy, at least inform me if you are safe, Andrew.
My heart clenched from the worry and I keep looking at my phone while the tears of grief and disappointment starts to pour down my face. I didn't know how long I wait for my husband, but all I know is that I am again disappointed and disheartened and I am lost as to how to react to this.
****
My body is extremely cold and someone is shaking me, "Tessa…"
"Tessa…"
"Tessa…"
I open my eyes, my vision blurring, the light is too bright and I close my eyes when it reflects in my eyes, hurting them. "Andrew?" I whisper and then I hear a deep sigh.
"Tessa, Andrew hasn't returned yet, it will take more days for him to come back. Stand up, dear, you need to go to your room and rest." Ann pulls me up and I look at her with teary eyes.
"I miss him," I say emotionally, and then hugging her I start to cry sadly just like a small child.
She starts to caress my back to coax me. "Tessa, dear. Andrew has a job and there are many requirements to it. Dear, you have to learn to live without him. You can't stay with him all the time, no?"
I pull back and look at her with a frown, "Without him? I can't live without him, Ann." I sob and she looks clueless about what to say to me and lets me cry out.
"Tessa, come on, You need to rest in your room now. Look at yourself, you are looking disheveled, dear." Ann again tries to convince me and feeling tired I walk back with Miss Celine to my room.
Miss Celine helps me in changing my dress and even clean my face with wipes, I am now in my pajamas with my natural face, lying on the bed with my phone clenched tightly into my hand waiting for my husband to contact me.
Looking at the phone in my hand, my heart feels loneliness and pain, I feel broken too and I don't know why but his absence is affecting me more than I ever expect. I pray to God silently and keep murmuring only one sentence.
"COME BACK TO ME."
