The story of Saric (A Tale of love and Suspense
Page 36“I got into an accident exactly 5 months two weeks after I went to America,” he started, “I guess I lost contact with you during that period.” Vanessa stated “Yes, the driver I picked was knocked over by an over speeding car, he the driver died immediately but by the grace of God I was saved but went into coma,” he pauses, “The other guy who hit us also died on the spot but when I regained consciousness after 8 months later, I met Daniel the other driver’s junior brother. His father was generous and they took care of me, I wanted to come to you but I couldn’t locate you, my phone and everything got missing, finally I was able to locate you but you were already married with Kenneth Owusu and you were expecting his son,” he concluded. They sat in silence for a while. “Why do you call my husband by his full name?” Vanessa asked after digesting the piece of information she just heard. “You didn’t study your partner before marrying him, anyway we need to get back before your friends begins to worry about you. Vanessa looked at him and she smiled, she told him how she wanted to hate him but her heart couldn’t hate him, he understood that Vanessa was still in love with him, he needed that clue to fight for her. If she was married to any other man apart from Kenneth Owusu then he will bow out of the fight, but Kenneth Owusu doesn’t deserve you, I know he lied to you with his innocent face and that dirty smile of his, he thought. She was standing beside a portrait and he went over to stand behind her, “This is an inspiration I got from you, it was my first portrait after I regain consciousness from my coma” he told her, she turns and faces him, she could feel him and she was scared of what will happen next. “We need to go,” she tries to shift his attention from him but he continued to look at her, he move his mouth closer to hers, she wanted to resist but she couldn’t, she wanted him as bad as he wanted. He kissed her and she kissed him back, they couldn’t control themselves, a call from Vanessa’s phone interrupted them, she talked with the caller and then she ends the call, she told him she needed to leave because her friends were worried for her, as if he wasn’t the one being to talk to, he kissed her again and she kissed back, “Please let go now, I promise we will talk later,” she assures him, he kissed her for the last time and they both left.
