A vacation

Liya locked herself in her room, she went on her knees, her hands on the floor "How did she get that picture? am I being spied at? "

'I have to call Ryan to make sure he is okay ' Liya took her phone from her bag, dialing Ryan's number, his line is switch off.

Liya became worried, she tried it again, the same result. Liya dialed Octavia's line which Octavia picked at one attempt.

'Hi babe' Octavia said.

'Octavia, what's up with Ryan?' Liya asked worried.

'Ryan?, I don't know, why do you ask babe? "Octavia asked chewing gum loudly.

'Jeez stop that!, it's too loud and annoying'

'Oops, so why are you asking about another man instead of your husband '

'Octavia, I think I'm being watched by my mother -in-law '

'why do you say so? '

'Today I went to Ryan house and I was caught... '

'you said what? ' Octavia screamed.

'How?, why?, who?, wait what were you doing at Ryan house? '

'I was sad and lonely, I needed someone to encourage me, someone to comfort me.. '

'And that person is Ryan? ,are you crazy?, you are married! '

'Relax, it wasn't serious '

'oh great, caught cheating by your mother-in-law isn't a serious thing?, are you kidding me? '

'Will you listen to me please! '

'Okay go on ' Octavia spoke.

'I don't know how my mother-in-law get to know, she showed me pictures of me resting on Ryan chest, it was awful.. '

'wait what?" Octavia screamed over the phone. 'she showed you pictures? Where did she get them? '

'I don't know but I'm worried about Ryan, I hope he is save, since the pictures were taken in Ryan house, she probably know where he stay, I don't want Ryan to get hurt because of me ' Liya said with tears.

Octavia sighed.

'You know what, lets... I don't even know what to do, have you try calling him? '

'I did but he isn't picking, I'm so worried, I already hurt him by breaking his heart marrying another man, I don't want him to get more hurt ' Liya sniffed her nose.

'wait, are you crying? 'Octavia asked.

There was no response.

'You don't have to cry, maybe I should go check on him, what do you think? '

'Oh, that would be great,thank you '

'don't mention it dear ' Octavia said hanging up.

Liya lay on the bed ,her eyes looking at the celling,she hope Octavia would call soon . She know she has to be careful with Madelyn watching her movement,she doesn't know what Madelyn is capable of and want no harm to Ryan.

Deep in thought she slept off in an ackward manner.Her legs dangling from the bed ,while her head is at the opposite edge of the bed.

Liya woke up with noises coming from the sitting room 'what's that ' She wondered rubbing her eyes. The noise became louder, Liya recognized Jude voice yelling.

She can also hear Madelyn voice.

'omg!, did Madelyn told Jude about what happened earlier? ' Liya panicked, she know she is gone if Jude found out.

She ran outside to the sitting room, Jude was having an argument with his mom, when he sighted Liya, he hissed.

Liya was scared, she walked to Jude, went on her knee to beg him. 'I'm sorry 'She said with tears.

Jude look at Liya confused, he look at his mum who is as confused as himself.

'It's not what you think, I can explain' She spoke sniffing.

'Mum, what's going on? 'Jude asked his mum.

'I don't know, Liya, why are you on your knee and why are you crying? 'Madelyn asked Liya.

Liya was trying to explain but she couldn't bring her mouth to speak, she felt so ashamed of herself.

Jude became irritated with Liya behavior, he screamed at her to get up and tell him what the matter was.

Liya was shaken at her husband scream, she stood up crying more 'I'm sorry Jude'.

'Oh so it was your plan all along right? 'Jude asked.

Iiya was murmuring some words.

'You were behind this huh?, how dare you? '

'I.... Only went there for something else, I.. didn't.. '

'Went where?, so you conspire with my mum against me right?, you are living here, being fed, giving nice and expensive dresses, you do as you like, you buy what you want, you are living a princess life, what more do you want?, I'm attention?, that's bullish!t, you can have all the money but not my time or attention '

'Nonsense!, she is your wife, she has the right to have your full attention. 'Madelyn retorted.

'Mum, you know I'm always busy, I can't give her that. '

'But you can give it to another woman right?, you are going on a vacation to Tokyo and you are taking your wife with you '

'Mum, I already explained, I'm going there for busy purposes not for a vacation ' Jude frowned.

'I don't care son, all I know is, you and Liya are going to Tokyo together, if it's a business trip, you can't have all day for work, take some time off and spent quality time with your dear wife '

'But mum, I... '

'No, no. I have spoken and that's final! 'Madelyn said sternly.

Liya realized, Jude wasn't taking about the photos, she thought he found out and wanted to send her out not knowing his mum wants her to travel with him.

She breath a sign of relieve, she almost sold herself out, telling Jude himself.

Thank goodness, she didn't.

'It's okay, I will stay, it's a business trip and I shouldn't interfere with business, we can go another time Mother. 'Liya stated worried about Jude.

Madelyn glared at Liya 'Such an id!ot '

'Mother? 'Liya asked , surprised at Madelyn calling her an idiot.

'I'm here trying to help you while you are making the situation worst. Get your things you are leaving with him tomorrow, is that clear? '

'Okay ma 'Liya nodded.

'Mum you are unfair, I'm an adult, I can make my choices'

'Oh well you are my son and I decide for you'

'Fu-k you! 'Jude curse and left.

Liya was unsure about what's happening, Madelyn making choices for her son, Jude doesn't seem okay with her traveling with him.

'I can stay mother, Jude doesn't seem okay taking me along, I don't want to... 'Madelyn interrupted Liya.

'Shut the f--k up, you are going with him, what's the essence of him marrying you when you are not doing your duties, listen you do as I say or I show him the pictures of you cheating on him '

'I wasn't cheating... '

'Oh who cares, I have proof and that's enough. Now go prepare and make sure you get me a grand child by the time you come back '

'Huh, grand child? 'Liya asked perplexed.

'Yes, make sure you are pregnant 'Madelyn made her way to the kitchen, getting herself fruit salad from the refrigerator. Liya followed Madelyn.

'You know I can't do that, he won't touch me, how will I get pregnant for a man who refuse to sleep with me? '

Madelyn chew a pineapple, 'Thats your problem, you fix it, he is your husband, deal with him '

'He won't touch me, me getting pregnant is a mission impossible, beside, I don't want to carry a baby, not now, I'm not ready 'Liya complained.

Madelyn laughed at Liya statement 'who is ready to carry a child, listen I have your deepest secret so you have to do as I say or... You know what's going to happen. Get him to sleep with you, seduce him, you are a woman, wear revealing clothes, com'on. '

'Or better, you make him drunk or drug him so you can have your way. '

'What? 'Liya screamed.

'Drug?, I can't 'She trembled.

'Hahaha, you are so naive Liya dear, get him alcohol, do anything you can '

Madelyn look at Liya, she laughed at Liya's confused expression.

'You are so clueless,aren't you? 'Madelyn asked .

'Its up to you dear 'Madelyn went to her room humming.

Liya sighed .

She doesn't want to travel with Jude ,talkless of being pregnant for him..She made her way to her room ,sat by the window thinking , Her phone rang .

Liya got up to get her phone,she saw three missed calls from Octavia.

'oh shit '

'Hello Oct '

'Where did you put your phone!'Octavia screamed.

'Im sorry ,I was talking to my mother-in-law,I left my phone in my room '

'ugh , you got me worried ,I thought you might be in trouble '

'No,I'm okay Octavia, so what about what I asked you,is Ryan fine?'

'I'm actually at his place,he is..hmm..okay but still heartbroken ' Octavia answered .

'I can imagine '

'Babe he look like he hasn't been eating for days ,lover boy still thinking about you '

'Can you give him the phone please 'Liya pleaded.

'Okay ,sure' Octavia gave the phone to Ryan.

'Hey Ryan '

'Liya?, you called?'Ryan was surprised hearing Liya voice ,he didn't know Octavia was on the phone with his ex.

'Are you okay,you don't sound good '

Ryan faked a faint laugh 'I'm fine ,I'm actually hungry '

'Oh ,you should get something to eat,order or drive to a restaurant '

'Dont worry , Octavia is cooking in the kitchen,I think food will be ready in the next thirty minutes.'

Liya felt jealous hearing Octavia cooking for him.

'I should be the one doing that ,so sad 'Liya said.

'Yeah but you are another man property,you cook for another man now '

'Im not even allowed to cook here, maids do all the work '

Ryan was silent.

'Ryan are you there?'Liya asked.

'Yes ,I was just thinking about something'

'About what ?'

'Never mind ,I gotta go ,take care' Ryan hang up before Liya could say anything.
