Chapter 8
*Camille*
The next morning......
I woke to find out Asher didn’t come home. I had gone to bed early after leaving Annie’s place in the evening.
I was feeling really weak and had to go to bed early. Besides, I already had dinner at Annie’s.
There was no sign of Asher and I needed no soothsayer to tell me he didn’t come home.
It not the first time he won’t spend the night but he would call or text to let me know he won’t be coming home. A meeting or business trip came up, he would say.
I brought out my phone from the drawer beside my bed and checked to see if there is any message from Asher but none.
Just a message from Annie and Chloe. I clicked on Chloe’s message.
Chloe- when are you free?, would you like to hang out?
I sighed and replied.
‘When I am free, I will let you know ‘ I sent.
I got up from the bed and contemplated whether to call him or not but I decided not to.
He didn’t call me, why should I? And where the hell is he?
‘Having fun with sluts of course ‘ my sub conscious answered for me.
He can’t possibly be cheating right? It doesn’t even matter. I also cheated.
‘Unknowingly ‘ my subconscious said.
“Trying to comfort me, I gat you” I huffed.
But why did he deny knowing me. God, am not thinking about this again. I can’t just seem to get it off my mind.
Seeing him again should be easy. All I need to do is contact Chloe and .....
‘Are you thinking what am thinking’ that was my subconscious and am sure if it a human, it would be winking at me right now.
“Am not and I will never be. Am not seeing him again. It better that way”
I told myself and quickly brought out my phone to text Annie.
‘Hi, good morning. I told Asher and he agreed. When are we leaving?’ (I sent)
I sighed and dropped my phone before leaving for the bathroom.

Afternoon
I absentmindedly watched a show on tv as I thought about going to the hospital for check up.
What if am truly pregnant? Well I abort it. I remembered Asher’s words.
Am not ready for a baby now but I can’t abort the innocent child if it comes out positive.
And why don’t Asher want a baby now. Am
