"Where are you coming from" Steve said in a dangerously calm voice behind her.
She stiffened at the sound of his voice and turned slowly to look at him, words failing her as she opened her mouth to talk.
" I repeat, where are you coming from?" he asked again in the same voice and slowly advanced on her
"I-I-. I'm coming from the market" She stuttered
"Market? By this time? With that dress?" He asked laughing sarcastically, a dangerous glint coming into his eyes.
" No, I went to visit a friend..... Jee... Jessica" she stammered in response
" Did you go to a club with Jessica?" He asked
"Yes... I mean no we just played pranks"
" You've started lying to me Sharron" He said, his voice laced with hurt.
" You are a married woman and you are going to a club without your spouse GODDAMMIT" He shouted causing her to jerk back in fear
" I'm sorry, we didn't stay long in the club"
"Keep shut" he shouted, slapping her
" I can't believe you hit me Steve" She said, tears rolling down her cheeks and run to their room bolting the door from inside.
"Open the door Sharron; I'm so sorry I hit you. I don't know what came over me" he said in a small voice
" Go away, I don't want to see you now" she replied
" Shit" he said, banging his fist on the door and left for work.
.
At work, Steve took is anger out on his staffs, none has ever seen his bad side.
"Sir" his secretary called as she entered his office " The commissioner wants to speak with you"
"Tell him to fuck off" Steve said through gritted teeth, still reeling in anger
" He said it's urgent sir"
"GET OUT OF MY OFFICE NOW!!!"
she ran out shaking in fear
Few minutes he called her when he was felt calmer
"Sarah, if he's still waiting, connect it with this line" he said into the phone
"Okay sir"
***************************************************************************
"Hello Mr. Commissioner"
"Steve what's the problem? I haven't heard from you in a while neither have I seen what I ordered for"
"Okay Mr. Commissioner, your complaint will be tended to as the Steve you're requesting to talk to is not available at this moment, please try again later. Thank you" he said and hung up leaving Sarah mouth opened at his entrance.
"I have to think of a special way to apologize for hitting Sharron and talk to her about Jessica, maybe she'll see sense in whatever I say" He thought putting his head on the table
📞"Hey Bes" Jessica said over the phone in afternoon
📞 "Dearie, how you doing"
📞 "I'm good, slept like a baby all through the morning"
📞 "And here I cried all through the morning, Steve hit me"
📞 "You must be joking"
📞 "I'm not" Sharron replied tearing up
📞 "He never hit you, why would he do that now?"
📞 "He found out we went to club"
📞"Oh sorry dear, I'll come hang out with you tonight but guess what"
📞"What?"
📞 "Mr. Handsome dude sent a text to me, asking me out on a date"
📞"And you're going?"
📞"Sure why not" Jessica replied rolling her eyes, forgetting Sharron can't see her
📞 "How did he get your number?"
📞"Don't know, don’t care and it doesn't matter, all that matters is Evans asked me on a date "she squealed over the phone
📞" I don't support you going"
"Why?? Just because you don't like him doesn't mean I don't Sharron"
📞" Okay okay"
📞" Yeah, gotta go, I have a date to
prepare for"
📞" Alright bye"
📞 " Yeah bye, I'll come by tomorrow" She said and hanged up
"But you said this night" Sharron said in to the empty phone.
Sharron had locked herself in the room all through the day, when the sun started setting; she stood up to prepare herself a meal.
As she opened the door, she saw roses on the floor leading down the stairs into the living room. She got to the living room and saw banners hanging on the wall with "I'm sorry"
She hissed and walk to the kitchen to satisfy her hunger but stopped at the entrance, her eyes widening in surprise as she saw Steve on his knees holding a bouquet of flowers.
I'm so sorry sweetheart, I promise never to do that to you again"
She smiled through the tears that clouded her eyes and was about to raise him up when her phone rang
📞" Am I on to Mrs. Sharron Davies?" a voice asked over the phone
📞"Yes, you are, any problem?"
📞 " This is Sheriff Daniels , Do you know anyone called Jessica Hale?
📞 "Yes I do, what is it"
📞 "Well, sorry to break the news. Ms. Jessica is dead"
