Chapter Four Hundred and Fifteen

Melvin POV

Am glad that I talked with George, it was easy for me to open up to him and he was paying attention to everything I was saying and gave me a shoulder to cry on. I never expected such from him cause I know Anna and I hurt him in the past but he was there for me in my dark moment. I wonder why I did not associate myself with such people, oh! I remember Anna happened, cause she made sure that I did not associate myself with them and I foolishly allowed her to do that to me, thinking that she has my best interest at heart. I arrived home, determined to act like am not aware of what she did, but when I saw her smiling at me when I walked in, I felt disgusted by her presence. Though I tried my best to act like all is well, I can't bring myself to act that way.

I barely managed to accept her welcome without snapping at her, I walked to the bedroom to clear my head but she decided to follow me inside. I know that she will be asking questions, luckily for me I have the perfect answer for her and she bought it. But what she said ran a chill down my spine, I heard her. She said that we will have a child soon but not that she will be pregnant soon, I have been with Anna long enough to know the meaning behind most of her words. She might have been able to deceive me all these years but this time I know better and I am wiser. I know that she is planning something evil, is she planning to steal someone else child and imposed him or her on me?

That is when it clicked, it is now making more sense to me but I don't like what my mind is telling me one bit. I don't want to believe that she will be that evil but like George said she is mentally unstable and she can be unpredictable. I made an excuse that I want to shower while I slipped my phone into my pocket and move to the closet. I heard her leave the room, I quickly dashed inside the bathroom and to the shower. I dialled George's number and he picked up the call as soon as it connected. Hey Man, are you okay? He asked me the moment he accepted the call. Yeah, I am okay, I just want to warn you to guide your wife and unborn child all the time, I don't know what she is planning but my gut is telling me that it involves them, I warned him.

Why will you say that? Is there anything you saw or heard? He asked me. George, this is not time for you to ask questions, right now am in the bathroom calling you and I don't have much time left before she comes back and I will advise you to do what I said, protect your wife, I said to him and end the call cause I don't want her to walk in on me answering the call in the bathroom. She will start suspecting me and I will not be able to get any useful information from her cause she will start being careful around me.
