WILD OBSESSION
Episode 5
*****
Sarah and Frank lived in a beautiful house with a spacious and comfortable living room and bedroom spaces, with multiple toilets and bathrooms.
Every space of the house was adorned with luxurious furniture and fixtures.
The mansion was one of the property that Frank’s father acquired before handing over the company to him.
Frank was now the manager of the company. Its branches are spread across different states of Nigeria.
He usually visits those branches to make sure everything is in order.
It was just a week after their wedding. They enjoyed every moment of their being together.
They were having quality time with each other in the bedroom one evening. As they were still cuddling themselves, Frank’s phone rang.
He picked up the call and spoke with the caller for a little while before the call ended.
He turned to his wife.
“My attention is needed at one of our branches in Portharcourt.”
“Needed? How? Don’t they know you are still on honeymoon?”
“Honey you know I’m the only one managing all my father’s companies across the nation.”
‘It’s high time you employ people that should do that.”
“I haven’t seen capable hands yet.”
Sarah was furious
“I won’t stay long, just to put a few things together and I’ll be back.”
Sarah was still not happy.
“You still have me now, put a smile on this beautiful face,” he said as he drew nearer.
He gave her a passionate kîss and continued cuddling her.
They slept off afterwards.
The following morning, Frank woke up early and was preparing to leave for Portharcout.
Sarah made breakfast for him.
When he was done preparing, he went to the dining room and took his breakfast.
Sarah saw him off and he drove off.
Sarah was left all alone in the mansion. She was the only one in the large compound.
She had her bath and ate food. She then kept herself busy watching television.
It was boring for her but she got no choice.
A few days later, she couldn’t cope with being indoors all alone, so she came out and walked within and outside the compound.
There was a lady from their neighbouring compound who usually greeted them whenever they were driving out.
She saw the lady outside the compound and they both greeted.
“Neighbour, you came out alone today.”
“Yes, I’m bored inside and decided to take a walk.”
“Your hubby isn’t around?”
“Yes, he travelled a few days ago but will be back soon.”
“You will get used to it just like me.”
“Your husband is also not around?”
“Yes, and he’s not even in Nigeria.”
“Really?”
“Yes, I can come and keep you company whenever you feel lonely.”
“That will be very nice, thank you.”
They switched topics and later parted ways.
She later became friends with that lady. Whenever she was bored, she would visit her or tell her to come over to her house.
They would watch television together, gist about happenings and even help each other in doing chores.
