"Princess, it's cold. Why don't you come inside?" I heard Mary say. I turned around to look at her.

"Don't worry about me, Mary. Just go in and rest. My husband isn't back yet"

"But-"

"Don't worry about me. Go inside". I ordered her. She curtised, walked up to me and dropped the blanket on my shoulders before walking away.

I looked at the ring on my finger as I remembered our wedding day. Then I smiled and sat down on the stairs as the rain was getting heavier.

I've been waiting for him for the past two hours now, and he still hasn't shown any sign of coming. I've tried calling his number but it was switched off.

Just then, his car drove in and stopped right in front of the stairs. On seeing him, I ran down to go meet him. So the rain wouldn't touch him.

As he got out from the car he looked at me and smiled "Have you been waiting for me?" He said, his hand caressing my cheek.

"Yes, my love". I replied. Then he kissed me on the forehead, allowing the kiss to linger.

"You're such a beautiful couple". I could hear the driver say.

My husband smiled and looked at me, then turned to the driver and asked him to go.

Once the car was gone, his loving eyes became bitterly cold.

"Where have you been, my love?" I asked him.

"Since when do I tell you my whereabouts?" He asked.

"Since when did you stop telling me your whereabouts?" I rephrased the question for him.

"You're looking for trouble". He said silently.

"Well, you started it". I replied.

"Move aside" he warned but I wouldn't burge.

"One" I still didn't burge.

"Two". I still didn't burge.

"Three". He said and before I could react his hand hit me hard and my nose started bleeding. I fell hard on my knees into the rain.

"BOSS, YOU FORGOT SOMETHING" We heard the driver shout. I looked up and saw the driver running towards us.

My husband ran to my side and held me. In no time the driver was in front of us.

"My love are you okay?" He asked me.

"AH! IS HER HIGHNESS ALRIGHT?" the driver said as he looked at both of us and helped me up.

"Don't worry about her, she'll be fine". My husband told the driver.

"I trust you boss. Your love for each other is what I wish for". The driver said before handing over another phone to my husband which I knew quite well, wasn't his.

"Thank you. I'll take her from here". My husband said and the driver backed off.

The driver watched us display our loving affection as a couple until he could see us no more.

This is how I've been living my life. Pure deception.
