Mummy I got you a new husband

SOPHIE’S POV

As Karl walked out the door with Selene and Davis after they had hurrily taken their breakfast, I set up to cleaning the house. The car drove out moments after they had left the house and I buried myself with the house hold chores. I wondered how Karl’s was able to manage everything after his wife left without a help at the house.

After the party yesterday there was barely enough time to do anything. The kids made a mess of the house even though most of the events were done outdoors. It was the price I had to pay for hosting a party for kids at a house. It paid eventually as Selene had a fun filled day. I guess it wasn’t that bad after all.

” I am never having a party at a house again.” I mouthed as I went about the chores. If I had the party at a park or something it would be their responsibility to clear the mess but with this I had to do all the work.

As I cleared the mess, I wondered how Karl was able to sleep there at the living room. I felt pity for having to make him sleep on the couch but there was no way we were going to share a bed either. I soon reassured myself in the comfort that he would still be able to sleep since the couch was big enough.

Going about my chores, my mind buzzed with how Karl was able to manage the house without a help. His claims of loving is privacy which was the reason he refused to hire a domestic staff after the one he had hired when his wife had left made a mess of the house didn’t settle well with me. The house was too big to be maintained by one person and I was as sure exhausted from the chores even though I had a lot to do.

” We are definitely getting a help.” I mumbled again as I went about the chores. There was so much to do and I barely had any idea on how to manage everything. I decided to start with where the party has happened and soon enough I was done cleaning everywhere.

” Oh gosh, my body aches.” I exclaimed as I stretched my body. I could feel pains in practically every part of my body and As soon as I was done, I headed to have a bath, it was almost time for school dismissal and I had to hurry to make lunch.

As I removed my clothes, I noticed a red stain in my panties. I took a closer look and it appeared to be blood.

“oh no!!” I exclaimed expressing my dissappointment. It was my menses and I was expecting it till the following week. I rushed to the bag I had brought and brought our some santinary towels.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

” Yes, thank goodness!!!” I exclaimed as I saw the pads. Karl had insisted we bring nothing from the house, and his driver who had come to pick us up asked that we left our stuffs at the house as he said that Karl had gotten everything we needed before we arrived but I was happy I brought some stuffs with me as they came in handy. I had my bath, took some aspirin and headed downstairs to make lunch before the kids got back from school.

” It had been a long morning.” Muttering to myself I took the trash out before I started to make the meal.

” Hello, how are you today?” I asked as I went out to throw the trash, the security at the post looked at me keenly as though he was surprised I took out the trash and greeted him. I guess he did not expect I was going to greet him and stuttered as he responded.

” Fi….. ne ma’am.” He responded still gazing at me atonished. Growing uncomfortable, I rushed back inside after I had dropped the trash to make the meal

I headed back to the kitchen to make food for everyone. As I went about the meal, I heard my phone ring. But I was too busy to go pick it up so I could answer it, it rang repeatedly and when I didn’t answer my phone beeped again. It seemed the caller had dropped a message. Leaving the meal to cook, I headed out of the kitchen to call the caller back. I decided to check the message first before calling back.

” You lied to me Sophie, how could you do that to me.” I read the message outloud and noticed it was from an unknown caller. I wondered what the message meant and how I had lied to anyone. I knew for sure I had not done anything of such.

Soon enough the phone rang again and it was the caller from before who had sent the message. I picked up the phone and the voice of the caller sent shivers down my spine.

” Why did you have to lie Sophie, you promised me it was the truth when I asked you.” The voice at the other end said. He seemed furious with me about his claims that I had lied to him. As soon as I heard the voice I knew who the caller was and what he was talking about. I didn’t lie about anything but “how was I supposed to prove it wasn’t a lie now?” I asked myself as I sat on the couch.

” I didn’t lie about anything, I swear to you it was the truth.” I responded and he was not having it. He was so angry that he didn’t want to listen to what I had to say so I just kept mute listening to him rant. As I was talking with him, my nose sniffed out a weird smell and I wondered what it was.

“Oh my!!!” I exclaimed as the sudden realization hit me. it was a burn smell and the meal I was making was still on the fire.

I raced to the kitchen and turned off the gas, the meal was burnt but it was not very bad and i was sure we could manage to eat it. Coughing and choking from the burnt smell in the kitchen, I came out to have some air and when I got to the living room and the phone was still on call. I picked up the phone and ended the call.

As soon as the call ended, I noticed my phone started ringing again and I decided it was best I didn’t answer it as I wasn’t ready for that conservation just yet.

“Buts, it was never a lie!! ” I mumbled to myself as I sat on the couch thinking about what to say when I did pick the call.
