His wife had sat there waiting for him. Endless it seemed she believed in
his faith
toward...toward their new family. Her eyes watered but NO. She had to stay strong
if she could not stay strong what is the chance that her child will?
"Where are...where are you?" she whispered into the dark night in her chilling room.
"Madam I do believe your husband is on the phone..." the servant bowed to her while
leaving her alone to converse.
" Hello? Yes.... I'm here...I'm okay.... yes please don't fret love. I'm okay. Feeling fine and I
don't believe I feel...no dear.... Hello? I thought I lost you there...yes love I know you will be
home...why are you yelling? I'm fine love...please don't...really now...ple- --" her arms flailed
in pain. Her grip on the phone was lost and the object was thrown violently on the floor.
Her lips let out a shrill scream.
"Oh dear lord. HURRY UP LADIES...NO THERE IS NO TIME. PRONTO! You two
help me place Mrs. into her bedroom. Who knows what will happen if you leave her lying
here.
Swift motions of white clothing moving in and out of rooms and frequent yelling at
one another...the cause? Frustration. But did they know that their Madam's husband was
still on the phone...and as predicted he too was yelling...frequently.
"HELLO?" his voice grew to a tone used most in the home. "Will someone answer me or
will I have to hang you all? Answer me NOW---?" he stopped his sentence to the pitter-
patters of someone breathing on the receiver.
"Sir you must come quickly back home. Madam.madam.she.she."
"ON with it woman!"
The servant took a deep breath "SHE'S HAVING THE CHILD"! And with that his
servant hung the phone and carried on with the business she had to attend to.
His heart thumped and his lips quivered. "My.child" in the station booth he held
the phone restlessly.. It had come to him all so quickly that his child was presently coming
out of his wife.he thought of the many ways he had done wrong to his wife tonight. How
he yelled at her.and betrayed her.
"It is a great deal of how a woman loves a man but even greater how a man defies his
spouse" those words lingered in his mind.floating over his frivolous mind. Seeping its way
through the crevices of that deep dark deceiving brain of his. Outside the rain poured as if the ocean was in the skies. Without any other second
thought.he ran home clothes hanging snuggly against his chest soaked with rain. "I must
go home.I must".
Little did he know his "master" was watching him. Watching him weaken before his
eyes. Weaken.for a woman. That was what made him scorn over him like he would
scorn for any other ingrate that had not appreciated his "abruptly scheduled
meetings". Ominously he loomed in the clouds.just watching his employee running
in soggy shoes. And as if he were talking his words blending in with smoke
clouds.he would be saying "Disgrace"
