..WILLIAM..
It had been almost two weeks since Anna had gone missing which is a wrong thing to say cause now we were all certain Rajesh Sharma had murdered her all thanks to Coreen’s recording. My life had come to a stand still ever since the day of the court hearing and my parents had tried talking to me, saying everything happens for a reason but I was still having trouble grasping the fact that my wife and supposedly unborn baby were now dead. I was officially a widower. Now I know Anna had cheated on me but that didn’t stop me from loving nor missing her. I just wished she was here with me.

I was seated in my office staring at nothing in particular when Lady Valerie showed up. I hadn’t even seen her come in not until she snapped her fingers in my face.

“You’ve been absent minded lately, Willy,” she said and sat. “Am sorry to say this but your wife is no more and you sitting here brooding won’t bring her back to life.”

I didn’t reply.

She then placed her hand on mine and sweetly said, “I’ve got a surprise for you.”

“Not today, ma’am. Am not in the mood for no surprises.” “Oh come on,” she tagged at my arm. “You’ll love it!”

“Fine,” I lazily said and followed her lead.

We past a string of workmates whom I guessed knew the boss and I had a thing going on but they wouldn’t say nor show they knew. We went outside the building and Lady Valerie instructed I close my eyes. “This feels corny, I can’t do it.” I whined.

“Just do as I say, Willy, I swear you’ll love my surprise!”

“Fine,” I repeated in exasperation and closed my eyes. I felt Lady Valerie slip a box into my hands.

Wasn’t I supposed to be the one doing this for a lady? All this felt wrong, like really long.

“You can now open them eyes,” she whispered.

I opened my eyes and scanned the blue small box in my hands. It had some words scribbled on it, ‘OPEN ME.’

I was shaking my head as I opened the box and my eyeballs dangled in their sockets for a while when I saw the car keys.

“Press the disarm button and see which car budges.”

Still not believing this was happening, I did as told and an Audi Q7 budged, making a sweet noise as it got unlocked.

“That’s now yours, Willy.” I was at a loss for words as I went to open the door. Owning my own car had been a dream of mine since forever!

“You earned the car,” she said, almost as if reading my thoughts. “I might be quite biased here, I accept. But you work your a-s for this company, Willy. And this is a personal token of appreciation so please take it.” Of course am taking it, sugar mama! “I’m- I don’t know what to say, my lady.”

“Your face says it all..Why don’t we go for a road test?”

“Why not?” I beamed.

I got behind the wheel and felt as if I was daydreaming as I drove out of the company premises and joined a tarred road. “You’re a blessing, my lady.” She smiled and pulled her skirt up. “Why don’t you show me how appreciative you are? I know an exquisite lodge close to where we are, let’s go there.”

I was too excited to say no so I drove to the lodge which I knew too. We booked a room and ordered some vintage wine which was brought to the room almost immediately. I was about to pour the wine when Lady Valerie slapped my hand. “That can wait. I’ve missed you.” she flung her arms round my neck and kissed me big time. I aggressively took off her shirt and fumbled with her bra for a while which I later dropped to the floor. Using my teeth, I took off her skirt and rubbed her underwear with my forefinger. She m0aned before sitting on the bed and spreading her legs after taking off her underwear. She got the wine and poured it all over her private part.

“Lick it off me, baby boy,” she authoritatively said. “Lick me!”

Still fully dressed and getting really hard down there, I knelt between her legs and began licking the amzing wine off her. She m0aned my name as she gripped my head with her hands, pulling me towards her.

“Just like that, Willy, I love it like that!”

I licked her for a while and when I felt I couldn’t hold the urge to screw her no more, I stripped naked and held my junior Willy. “Your turn, my lady.”

Lady Valerie smiled and gestured I sit on the bed, she poured wine on my c--k and started sU-Cking, slowly and intensely. I felt blood course through me at a dangerous pace. S--t, this felt so f-----g awesome!

I shut my eyes to savour the moment. That’s when I saw different images or memories of Anna flash right before me. In one she was smiling at me, we were making love in another and in the other one were having a romantic dinner in our room…

“I can’t,” I suddenly piped up, gesturing Lady Valerie stops sU-Cking mini me. “Anna’s memories won’t let me be nor will my conscience. Am so sorry, my lady, but I just can’t have sex with you. At least not right now..it just feels disrespectful to Anna’s memories.” She looked super frustrated and let down but she forced a smile anyway. “I understand.”

I apologized once more and rushed to the bathroom to have me a cold shower.

Dammit, Anna! D--n you! I couldn’t seem to refrain myself from inwardly cussing her. When I stepped out of the shower, lady Valerie was fully dressed and was applying make up in front of a huge fancy mirror.

“You can have the car back,” I started to say but she shook her head carefully.

“I don’t work like that, William. I bought you that car so it’s yours unless you tell me you’ve decided otherwise.” “I- Thanks once again. You don’t know just how happy you’ve made me today.”

“I could have made you happier,” she said in an undertone. “Anyway, get dressed so that we leave. We’ve got work to do back at the office.”

“I’ll make it up to you.”

She was done doing her make up so she put the kit back in her bag and came to kiss me lightly. “I’ll be waiting for that moment.. Though for now, you’ll find me in the car.” she got the keys and walked out of the room.
.

Later that evening, only but a few minutes after arriving home, someone knocked at my door. Something that rarely happened cause I didn’t receive many visitors. “Maybe it’s Coreen who’s come to check up on me,” I told myself as I went to open the door without even enquiring who was standing on the other side.

When I opened the door, I almost froze. Anna?

“Hi, sweetie,” she flung herself at me and hugged me.

My heart stopped beating at that instant. I was s--t scared! Had she come to take me to wherever dead people go?

Anna or her ghost, I assumed, broke the hug when she saw how rigid I was.

“Why aren’t you happy to see me, William?”

“Because you’re dead!” I shakily snapped. “Leave me alone in Jesus’s name!”

She laughed, carefree. “Am not dead, my dear husband. All am suffering from is temporary memory loss. I woke up at one point and couldn’t remember a d--n thing but as soon as I remembered you, I came all the way here!”

I don’t know why but Anna felt so real so I ushered her into the house and talking to her made me realise her memory was two years and a couple months short. To her, I’d just started working for Lady Valerie so she had no memory of Rajesh or whatever had happened in the last two years and some months.

“I’ll tell you all that I can remember and what I’ve been through the past month and a few weeks,” she said as she cleared the table. We’d just had supper. “But for now I gotta have you in me, Willy.”

Anna and I made love and cuddled all through the night. I was tempted to ask her if she was still pregnant cause I couldn’t tell just by looking at her but I failed to ask her. Anna fell asleep in my arms while I only fell asleep a few hours later cause I was finding it extremely difficult to digest what was going on. What kept me from going insane was the fact that Anna’s dead body had never been found so the woman in my arms was definitely her and not her ghost. When I awoke in the morning, I was alone in bed. Only wearing boxers, I got out of bed and called my wife’s name.

No reply.

I was in the living room when I heard the main door open. I went to check who had come and found two policemen heading towards me, Anna by their side. “It’s him,” she said and smirked.

One of the policemen said, “Mr. William Njapau, you’re under arrest for the attempted murder of your wife Mrs. Anna Mumba Njapau.” he produced handcuffs and flashed them in my face. “You have the right to remain silent as anything you do or say may be used against you in the court of law!
