Chapter 11: She is a cheat
I called her up in two days to come over to my place, I was on my way home when I made the call. All my staff already knew her so she does not have a problem going in and out of my house. I was driving home feeling all excited, as I knew soon enough there will be no need to hide the relationship. I was very close to the house when Carl called.
Where the hell are you? he asked as soon as I picked up.
On my way home, I replied.
Very funny Ray he said we have a show in the next thirty minutes he said.
I took my phone off my ear and looked at the time. I had totally forgotten about it. I was too carried away making plans for Ammy. I asked the driver to turn the car around to the show. Then I called up my personal assistance to get me something to change into and also inform Ammy I was going for a show.
I came back to the house at about one am the next morning. I did not meet Ammy and I did not think much of it. She must have left for home because she fears, I may come back with the rest of the CREW. I took my bath and went to sleep. I woke up around 7am later that morning and dialled Ammy's number but it was switch off.
I dropped my phone and went to take my bath and went down stairs to eat breakfast. Then I went into my studio and tried to write a few pages on the novel I was working on. It was about eleven am already and I still heard nothing from Ammy. I got worried then tried her number again. It was still switch off. I become instantly very worried, I need to go over to her place and be sure she was okay.
I have only been to her place once and that day she felt very embarrassed that she did not let me in. She said the environment was not safe for me. And she was right I don't think it safe for her either. But she said she could manage fine. She made sure I drove out of that place as early as possible. I wearing a cap and sun glasses which made it had for me to get recognized.
She still instead that it was not safe for me and hurried me away. I am sure I could still recognize her apartment. I needed to make sure she was fine. My heart was beating very fast and I was so scared for her safety. Maybe she left too late, last night and got in into trouble. I felt my heart missing a beat at that thought. I should have called her myself and ask her to wait for me. I thought getting more worried and scared.
I left the studio and hurried into my room. I opened my wardrobe to get something else to ware, that was when I notice the bag I had kept the cash was missing. I was in a hurry but I pause for a while and checked other parts of the room in case I moved the money but I found nothing. Frustrated I took at my phone and told my personal assistant to go over to her place and check on her since he was closer and will get there before me.
Since I was waiting for an update from my personal assistant, I decided to check the room again. I could not think so I put on my laptop because there where cameras in my room. I decided to use it to help me recall where I kept the money. I watched the video in fast forwarding mode but the last place I kept it was really my wardrobe.
Then I saw Ammy walked into my room and received the call from my Personal assistant . She laid on the bed for some minute, then notice I did not lock the wardrobe she went over to lock the wardrobe then she saw the bag and the money. She closed the wardrobe and went back to lay on the bed. She stood up few minute later to check the bag again. Then went back to the bed. Final she went to the wardrobe took the bag and left the room. I could not believe my own eye. I watched the video over and over again but it was really Ammy. My Ammy at that point I become confused. Did I already tell her about the money? I asked myself and tried to remember all our recent conversations but I had not made mention of the money.
I watch the video again this time paying close attention to her facial expression. She stole the money I come to a realization that was hard to believe, even whill the evidence were right before my eyes. I tookbl a deep breath I could not think straight my whole mind was messed up.
Now I believed Carl was right. I felt heart broken and frustrated. I keep asking myself why? I could not believe the special lady I loved was a thief. I wanted to call the police on her but I let it go. After all the money was for her's and I did not want mum mad at me for trying to play a smart one on her. Most importantly I did not want her to start getting involved in my relationship
Few months later I started missing her. I started making excuses for her. I knew her very well there is no way she is a thief. I could not come in terms with it. Maybe she was in a desperate situation. Maybe she does not think am serious with her. Maybe she got tempted and took the money but she regrets it but she is too scared to face me. Maybe this, maybe that, the maybe were just too much and there was only one way to find out the truth. Find Ammy and let her explain herself.
I got a private detective to look for her. Trust me she was very careless because they had a lead on where she was in less than two weeks. This only confirms to me she was no criminal. But when they finally got to her it turns out she was already married.
How was that even possible? I took a trip to the country she moved to myself. I needed to be sure it was really Ammy and it turned out it was really her. I wanted to confront her but I changed my mind and ask the detective to find out more about her husband. Maybe it was a contracted marriage or something.
Well, it turns out that the marriage was for real as the detective were able to find out that she has been dating the said guy for years and they ran away from the country. How did I never notice? I was now more heart broken, so she never loved me. Was it only about the money. How is that possible I mean she never cared about the money right? Wait or she just acted not to care to gain my trust. I was so confused and I felt I was losing my mind so I decided to let it go.
I did not need to hear any explanation as it was clear to me she is a liar. What was there to hear anyway? She was just going to tell me more lies and play with my emotions. I mean if she took my money and ran away with her boyfriend then I think there is nothing more to be explained. she is just a liar and a cheat. All ladies are I concluded.
Since then I just stayed away from ladies. I did not want to become just like my father but I knew then that I could never love or trust a woman again.
The driver pulled up at the hospital car park and we walked into the hospital together. I saw the doctor then went to check her at her hospital bed. She was looking pale but very beautiful. Her dark hair laying on her shoulder, with her eyes closed and her pink tiny lips. A perfect picture of sleeping beauty. I took a minute to take in all her features and my lips subconsciously curved into a small grin.
My phone started ringing, and it distributed the peaceful moments I was having just staring at her. I looked at the caller ID, Carl flash on the screen. I backed her bed and picked the call.
Someone was trying to kill me at that party yesterday, his voice come up. What are you talking about? I asked with surprise.
The cameral footage shows that the gun man was trying to kill me but the lady that took the bullet come in few seconds he explained.
What! I exclaimed in surprise. Has the gunman been identify? I asked.
Yes but he is yet to be found, Carl said. Why will someone want to hurt Carl? I thought.
Why would someone want me dead? Carl asked?.
I have no idea Bro just stay calm. I am sure when the gunman is caught we would find out who and why. I will come check you up in a bit I told him. Ok he said and ended the call.
I turn around and saw she was awake. I don't even know her name, even if she was one of my student.
How are you feeling? I asked.
My head hurts she answered what happens to me? she asked.
You got knocked down by a car yesterday night, I replied.
Oh my God she said touching her head. I need to call my Dad he would be worried she said.
I think your phone got missing at the accident scene, I informed her. You can use mine, if you know the number, I offered.
she looked shocked but she nodded her head and took the phone.
let me get the doctor I said and walked out of the room.
