Light brown eyes disputed my anger with a beautiful smile. His hands on my flushed face was cold as I felt a shiver run down my spine. I quickly pull back from his touch and widen my eyes at him. Is he kidding right? I just slapped this guy for crying out loud and he's smiling. " Are you mad or something? you sure, you're not in need of a nurse or doctor to check up on you? " He laughed loud and I stared at weird. truly this guy is weirdo He replied " I love you..." My mouth opened on it own as I widen my eyes at him. confirm, he has lost it. I gently bow, pull back a little, remove my heels and pick race. I ran like am been chased by a ghost. I stopped to catch my breath as I looked back. Guess who I saw.... " I'm doomed! Angela Collins you're dead.." I felt a drop of water on my cheeks. am I really crying?...

Waiting for My husband

Angel POV

A knock on the door woke up as I gently stood up to open the door for the person. I saw Packy holding a tray with food inside a plate towards me.

" I noticed you haven't eaten since you've gotten here and we're already in the night hour" she out lightened as he stretched the tray towards me

I gently took the tray and smile a little at her

" Thank you for your care but would you tell me what the time is it?" I asked

" Well, before I left the kitchen it was 9pm" she responded smiling a little

" What? did I slept that much? I'm sorry to have disturbed you Packy" I pleaded calmly

" No dear, you're not a trouble" She said smiling sweetly at me as I smile back

" Thank you but please, is your boss back?" I asked

" Not yet ma'am" She replied

" Really? does he take this long to get home everyday?" I asked curiously

" No ma. he always come home around 7 or 8." she said

" Okay but why is he late?" I asked feeling worried

" I can't say ma. I heard you once work for him before you got married" she said

" Please Packy, stop using ma for me. I'm old enough to be your child and yes I once worked for him before I got married to him." She said

" I thought at much. good night" She said smiling

" Thank you Packy, goodnight." I smiled back at her

She left and I close the door behind me to the dinning room. I sat down gently and eat my food. after took the plate to the kitchen and watch.

I search the whole cabinet to see if I could see any recipes for chocolate. I'm craving for chocolate right now. I search and saw few of them but not enough. I decide tomorrow that I will get it.

Few months later, I checked my phone time and saw 10pm. Where is Liam. is he avoiding me because of the way I spoke with him yesterday? ' i asked myself. still panting around the room worried for him. the front door opened and I saw my husband walked in majestically like everything is fine with him. I moved towards him ready to shout at him but his words stopped me

" Are you really waiting for me? Is that your duty now? don't you have any better things to do except you wait for someone? have you become that jobless to stay a whole night for someone whom you claim is a strangers to you woman?" He said

" Ohhh!!! have cat got your tongue now. you can't reply. I thought as much" he replied hissing at me

" Where are you coming from?" I asked him calmly

" And how is that your business? Are you now my security or my mother?" he asked widen his eyes

" I'm asking you a simple question" I said in a barely audible voice, almost choking on her words because of the emotion that clogged my throat

" Well I don't intend to answer your simple question. get out of my way. I'm tried." he shouted and gently pushed me away from his path

" Really? Have been waiting for you over one hour now yet you have the right to insult me" I screamed at him

" Insult you? I thought you went to school? did you just passed there or it went through you cuz I don't think you understand what insult really means. and anyways, don't you ever wait for me. Okay ? rubbish." he said walking away as he said loudly for me to hear " she's talking as if I gave her the job of waiting." and hissed.

I followed him angrily to the room. I don't want him to sleep on the couch today. it's been Seven months after our marriage. Liam sleep more on the couch or guest room while I sleep on the bed.

Angela was about to speak when he spoke first

" I'm sure this bed is big enough to contain the two of us so don't disturb me" He said bluntly and lay down

" Who want to disturb you. I never knew you were this heatless. would I blame you? since you are just like your father" I said and immediately he bounce at her and choke her neck.

" Don't you dare refer me with that bastard or I will kill you myself. did I beat you? did I touch you? did I insult you? don't step on my tails woman because I swear I will bite you hard just like a snake. get it? Did you get it ?" He tightening his hands on my neck

" Y.e....s.. I get... it.. lea...ve..al..on..e" I said stammering as he free my neck and move to his side of the bed to sleep.

" I don't need a jobless woman in my house so tomorrow get your ass up and look for job okay?" he said as I gently lay down

" I'm sorry Liam that I ruin your life with my actions. I wish I could change the time and season but is not in a man's hands but God." I whispered to him and I'm sure he heard him cuz he sighed heavily

He is now my husband and I will continue to wait for him even if he refuses to see me.

I hope my marriage with him is successful and productive. I don't want any regrets. I said to myself and slowly doze off

Liam POV

I don't want to get angry at her because she's also suffering from this arranged marriage but I also don't want her to hope up that I like her or something. I just want the best for her. I don't like housewives but an hardworking woman who is ready to work.

I purposely came late from work because I don't want to see her but sadly she's the same one I saw immediately I opened the front door. is cute and sweet to know that someone is waiting for you at home.

Anyways I wish her success in her search for job tomorrow. I thought silently and doze off.
