Chapter 08
* Later In The Evening *
” Lyra… Are you sure you’re fine now? ” Bryan asked worriedly over the phone, they’re on a voice call.
” Yeah, I’m fine ” Lyra replied with a dry voice, she was looking pale and definitely not okay, only if Bryan could see her.
” Are you sure? ” Bryan asked again, to be sure. ” Yeah ”
” So what are you going to do now? ” Bryan asked worriedly. ” I’m just going to try to stay out of his lane. Or keep myself locked in this guest room forever ” She muttered sadly.
” You sure you don’t wanna report this to the police?” Bryan asked, from the way he spoke, one could notice he was damn angry but he tried to keep it low.
” No, it’s fine.. it’s not his first time assaulting me anyways ” Lyra replied with a sad smile tho he couldn’t see it.
” Then leave! Come on Lyra! You know he’s definitely doing all that to make you leave so do so! I’m not okay with you staying there with that monster! Please Lyra.. please.. just sign the god-damned papers! Please ” Bryan pleaded and at the same time angry.
” Can we talk about something else? What are you getting me for my birthday? ” Lyra tried to change the topic. Bryan let out a sigh seeing it seemed she wouldn’t listen to him ever.
” You should get some rest.. I will phone you later ” Bryan said and Lyra knew he was angry.
” Alright I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it that way ” She muttered. ” No, I’m fine.. it’s just I’m busy right now.. I will phone you when I’m done.. bye ” He said and before she could reply, he hanged up.
Lyra let out a sigh as she laid tiredly on the bed, thinking about how everything is going to end and even if it will end.
She planned to stay in this room forever and never meddle in Bruce’s things. Since he doesn’t even regard her as his partner, she should learn not to too and try to focus on Bryan only since he loves her so much and it seems she might have a future with him.
She closed her eyes deeply and fell into a deep trance almost immediately.
** Night **
” And where’s your bitchy wife? ” Ella asked with a mocking smile as she moved closer to Bruce who was unbuttoning his shirt, he had just arrived from work and brought Ella with him.
” I’m not sure where she is but I’m definitely sure she’s not coming over here tonight ” He said seductively as he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her to him and the rough kiss began.
In no minutes, they were both on the bed, almost naked. Bruce kept kissing her roughly as his hands pressed softly on her b**b making her moan endlessly.
The door pushed opened but they didn’t stop as they kept feasting on each other’s lips, they knew whom it was even without stopping to check.
Lyra was less bothered as she only walked towards the wardrobe and began packing some of her stuffs but Ella was bothered that Lyra wasn’t bothered.
She wasn’t expecting that reaction from her twin sister, Lyra was supposed to be out of the room by now, probably in tears but she cared less, this made Ella push Bruce slightly away from her.
Bruce raised his brows confusingly but Ella pointed at Lyra who was still checking out some dresses of hers.
” And? ” Bruce shrugged. ” She isn’t bothered ” Ella said, bothered.
Bruce sighed before sitting up properly and Ella did the same. ” Hey! What are you doing here!? Can’t you see we are busy here? ” She snapped angrily.
Lyra turned to them. ” I’m sorry if I’m disturbing you two. I will just leave now ” She mumbled but loud enough for them to leave. She grabbed the clothes she had packed before walking out of the room leaving Ella speechless.
Ella turned to Bruce who was still wondering why Ella was bothered. ” Why are you bothered? ” He asked with a raised brow.
” I’m bothered cause she ain’t bothered! She’s supposed to be sad or probably crying or feeling jealous but she’s acting indifferent! ” Ella snapped.
” Isn’t that the best thing? I mean she probably lost feelings for me an would soon sign the divorce papers? ” Bruce tried to convince her tho he knew why Lyra acted that way.
” Um yeah, I guess ” Ella replied tho she wasn’t completely convinced.
” So let’s get busy again ” Bruce said with a knowing smile and in no minutes was on top Ella, kissing her roughly and passionately and she responded with the same pace.

Lyra let out a sigh as she sat lonely on the bed. She could hear Ella’s moans from where she was sitted. The guestroom was just beside their room, and they probably didn’t use the sound proof so she could hear them perfectly.
She was trying so hard not to be bothered but a part of her is still bothered.
She grabbed her phone to see if Bryan had texted or if she had a missed a call fr him but none of it happened.
He hadn’t called her ever since they talked last in the evening and she’s bothered.
Is he doing that purposely to make her bothered? Or he’s mad at her? Or he’s probably just busy? She tried his number for the umpteenth time but it was still the same, he wouldn’t pick up her call.
She texted him.
* Hey bae, are you still mad at me? I’m sorry.. please pick up my calls, I miss you.. please *
* I love you too, please reply this text *
She texted and after waiting for some minutes and he refused to reply, she sighed, he’s probably really mad at her.
She dropped her phone and laid properly on the bed, staring into nothing but space. She sighed for the umpteenth time, really hoping Bryan would call but he didn’t making her heart ache slowly.
He really has an effect on her. ” Please call ” She hoped silently but it didn’t happen.
She gave up and closed her eyes, ready to sleep until her phone rang out loudly, she jumped off the bed in excitement and silently hoping it’s Bryan.
Slowly, she brought the phone screen to her face and her heart almost jumped out in excitement. It was Bryan!
