The Truth About Lies[COMPLETED]✓

🏵️Chapter 12🏵️: Cutting all ties.

{Eleanora's P.O.V}
I groaned in frustration, throwing my phone on the bed and allowing it to land somewhere on the duvet. I do hope I find it on time though or I might step on it unknowingly.

  "What's wrong babe?" My husband asked me, as he adjusted his shirt while standing in front of the dressing mirror. 

I sat down on the dressing table, in front of my husband. "It's Justin. I've been trying his number for a while now but no reply. I'd have visited him but I don't even know where he lives". I complained.

"Justin travelled out of the country". My husband announced. I slowly glared at my husband's face as he did mine. Then he gave an innocent smile when he noticed I was about to pounce on him.

  "Don't judge me now, babe. He travelled three weeks ago on late grandma's burial day". He explained.

  "And you're just telling me now?"

"I didn't mean to. It was just this week you fully recovered from the pain of grandma's death. I didn't dare tell you anything about it, for fear you might do something crazy". He replied.

He was right though. Grandma's death had a serious effect on me. Telling me Justin's departure at that time, can affect me more. I was really depressed at that time.

  As he was adjusting his shirt, a little part of his tanned chest was showing. I sighed heavily, pitying myself as I remembered that my husband and I haven't consummated our marriage, so we were still like bachelors sharing a room. We were more like roommates if you ask me.

  "Why did you sigh so heavily?" He asked me.

  "You really wanna know?"

"Why not?"

  "Well, I want a baby Dure, and you haven't even attempted to give me one. You think I wouldn't given myself a baby if I could". I told him. His hands fell from his chest and he looked at me.

  "Babe, you know that I also want to do this but I've been-"

"Very busy. I understand you. If you're not busy, then the nation will give us work to do. I get it. But I'm at peace because you promised you'd make up for all of this. And so I'm waiting for you to fulfill your promise". I replied him and he smiled. Then he pulled my hair back and kissed me on the forehead.

"I'm glad to have such an understanding wife". He told me. He stood up straight and looked at himself in the mirror, adding his coffins to his long sleeve.

  "Why aren't you dressed, babe?" My husband asked me. I stood up from where I sat and walked to the bed before sitting down on the bed.

  "I'm not attending the wedding. You can go representing both of us. Tell them I haven't recovered yet and I'm still recovering". I replied him, before lying in bed and covering myself with the duvet.

  At first, I didn't hear anything from my husband which was weird. I was expecting him to nag me or convince me to follow him, but there was nothing.

  Since there was nothing heard from him, I relaxed in bed and closed my eyes to sleep. Suddenly, I was lifted from the bed and carried bridal style  by my husband. I laughed as he swirled me around, then walked towards the bathroom with me in his arms.

  "Why are you taking me to the bathroom?" I asked him. He rested his chin on my head and replied "Because you're going to the wedding".

  On hearing that, I tried to jump down from his arms but his arms held my legs tight and no matter how much I wanted to jump down, I just keep falling deeper into his arms.

He dropped me in the silver bathtub and knelt beside me.

  "Nora?" He called and I looked at him.

"Huh?"
