Being Mrs Spence

“Is two… is two lines?

she stared at it again

…”the second line is kind of blurred but is… maybe I will have to do it again. This will be the fourteen sticks. Two lines means positive… while negative is one line. Positive means I’m pregnant. That is the details I read on it’s body… or I’m I getting it wrong…

She tried again and it came out the same.

“… I’m pregnant. No matter how I tries to convince myself that I’m not, the truth stare back at me. I’m carrying Cole’s child… How can this be? Cole has issue getting a woman pregnant and has been on medication for the past two months. How can he get me pregnant… no… no. This means I have to get back to Coleman…

a phone call interrupted her.

she checked the caller and frowned.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

it was Lizbeth. Lizbeth has been calling since yesterday but she refused to pick.

Cole also called several times but she never picked.

Florence sighed as she decided to answer.

” Hello Mrs Spence, thank God you finally picked. Mr Spence is in a bad shape. He said he was going to kill himself if you don’t return. He miss you so much ma’am. He fell in the bathroom a day ago. Also fell in his room last night and this morning as he was trying to climb down he fell down at the staircase. He has refused my help and said is either you or no one else. He said he is not living for anything again… His house was about to be taking and his wife was gone. He wants to kill himself… and I’m scared. Please Mrs Spence, I know you are probably mad at him for what he did but for the sake of the God you serve please come home. Mr Spence really needs you… please.

Florence sighed again before replying Lizbeth.

“I’m not coming back Lizbeth. If your Mr Spence wants to die then he should quickly do so. Tell him he’s an ungrateful soul and I will never stress myself over him… ever again. Since you care so much about his welfare then attend to him and stop calling me every minutes concerning Cole…

“Mrs Spence, you know I would love to attend to him but he has refused my help and said is either you or no one else. I don’t know what to do again… he’s threatening to kill himself if you don’t com…

Florence ended the call before Lizbeth could complete her sentence.

She began talking to herself quietly again.

“No… I’m not going back to him. He’s an ingrate, an ungrateful soul. He’s going to become homeless soon, jobless and will be at the mercy of either his shrewd mother or anyone willing to help. I can’t continue in this misery, Maxwell must not know or I’m doomed. Maxwell will give me and this child a better life, he will love and cherish me, he will respect and care for me and the baby. This are things that Cole isn’t capable of giving… he can’t give what he doesn’t have. He only thinks of himself… very selfish. oh God, I’m pregnant… why now and why Cole. I have to act fast and make Maxwell take responsibility. I will try and go intimate with him tonight. He must not know that I have been sleeping with Cole and already pregnant for him… no he must not. He won’t forgive me and I will be ruined if I return back to Cole like he wants. I will sign the divorce papers, everything about Coleman will be forgotten. He will…

Somebody interrupted her.

“Flox, are you alright in there? You have been in the bathroom for over 30minutes. Did you later take the drugs you got or I should take you to the hospital… you will see a doctor who will ascertain what the problem is and we will know what exactly to treat… Flox… Flox…

Maxwell called out to her.

“I’m coming out now Max. I’m feeling a bit fine… no need of going to the hospital. Yes, I have taken the drugs… I will be alright…

She hide the pregnancy test properly inside her clothes before coming out.

She flashed Maxwell a smile, he wasn’t convince even with the smile.

“Flox… let me take you to the hospital. You were running temperature yesterday night. while you were sleeping last night, I came in and checked up on you before going to bed. I touched your forehead and your were running temperature. That’s why I made the special green tea for you this morning, but you left it untouched and went to work…

Florence moved to her wardrobe and stylishly dropped the hidden test. while Maxwell slowly move back to the room and stood beside the bed.

Florence went to him and wrapped her arms around.

“You worry too much Max, I’m fine. I couldn’t take the tea because I was already running late for work. And you know I’m taking a prescribed drugs from the pharmacy, I don’t know if it’s okay to take the green tea too…

“Is very okay. It does not affect the drugs. It actually helps you bounce back quicker than usualllll…..

He startled and suddenly paused from what he was saying as Florence put her hand under his shirt and tickle his nipples.

She kissed his arm up to his face.

“Max… stop talking and come let’s move to the bed. Make Love to me… I desire you… so much…

She kissed him passionately.

Maxwell blinked back severally before responding.

He suddenly stopped and set her aside.

He looked at her and said with a smile while holding her hand

“What are you doing Flox? Did you want to get me in the mood… and run off again…

He smiled expressing his teeth as he led her into a chair beside the bed and made her sit on his lap so she won’t feel bad.

“Flox… I thought we agreed on the first day that no intimacy. You said so yourself and I totally agreed to the ideas. We agreed that ones the divorce papers are signed which is in about two weeks from now we can freely do that. I might have allowed my feeling to cloud my thinking during the time of your separation, when Cole was living with another woman. I wanted you so much back then but I feel alright with myself for not succeeding. Well, all thanks to you. I realized that getting intimately involved is like sleeping with another man’s wife, you are by all standard still Coleman’s wife… despite the divorce case been in Court. Is only after it’s signed that you are Florence Richard Adam or you take up my own name…

He paused, smiled and continued

“… since everything is within two weeks, I have chosen to wait. I desire you too Florence… way too much, even more than you do but doing the right thing pays. Hope you understand…?

Florence frowned, she stood from his lap.

Is true she has suggested they don’t get intimate but that was before she tested positive to pregnancy.

Plans has changed and she just wants to go ahead and do it with Maxwell without thinking about it.

If she sit to think it through, she won’t proceed with it.

This baby must belong to Maxwell, Cole has ruined half or almost all her life.

If he is giving another chance, he will ruin everything.

She won’t give him that chance. Maxwell must not know her plan or she will be in trouble.

He will be shattered and she can’t allow that to happen.

Maxwell made attempt to hold her but she stepped away from him angrily.

“I thought you truly wanted me? Your body language and your attitude speaks of it. I see desires most times when I look into your eyes. And now I’m throwing myself cheaply into your arms and you are rejecting me…

Maxwell went to her and cupped her face in his hand.

“I’m not rejecting you Flox. I can never reject you… I’m only reminding you of our initial plan to wait. Is true that I truly love and wants you forever. Flox, even right now, my body yawns for you but I’m trying not to…

She interrupted him with a kiss on the lip.

“Enough talk, if you want me like I do then let’s do it… I can’t think of any other thing except to be with you Max…

Maxwell nodded quietly as he responded to the kiss.

He asked her if they can go to his room or she wants to stay here.

She didn’t respond as she began to unbuttoning his shirt before pushing him towards the bed.

She pulled off her clothes and went to him and the kissing and caressing continues.

Maxwell moaned softly as Florence increased the level of their romance in bed.

She was doing all she can to make sure he won’t start another sermon making her have a rethink.
