Lonely Bride

SARAH POV

Next day when I woke, I looked to my right side to see but to my disappointment the bed was empty. I touched his side. It was cold. It seems like he was not sleeping here last night.

Getting up huffing, I went to the washroom to get my routines done, and changing into a summer dress, I came back to my room. After tying my hair into a ponytail, I called Sam to know her and Nathan’s whereabouts.

I look at the wall clock showing me the time of 7. 05 in the morning. I know it is too early to call anyone, but I want to know when they will be here. I do not want to be with Sean anymore. Not alone, at least.

“Hello” I looked back to my phone, checking whether I called the right person, but well, I called the right no.

“Who’s this?” I asked the raspy voice owner.

I heard the throat-clearing noise and some hassle bustle but then heard again, “Hey good morning, It is me, Nathan.”

My eyes become Socket hearing this. I mean dude, this was fast. Till Yesterday they were fighting and today they are sleeping together? I mean wow just wow? But how come they become this close? They never showed their affection in front of me ever. Did they hide their feelings from me? But why?

“Sarah, are you there?” Nathan spoke in concern.

“Yeah, yeah, I am fine. Amm, when are you guys coming back?” I asked, ignoring the pinch I was getting in my heart. I mean, it hurts when your best friends hide things from you. Moreover, I was the one who was sailing them still, they hid this from me?

“You do not Sound like. Tell me what is wrong?” I know Nathan cares for me, but right now I am hurt and talking more might end up ugly, so better not to say anything.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I am good. Just called to know when you guys are coming back. But anyway, message me when you decide to come back. I must go now, bye.” Saying I hung up without hearing anything. Tears welled up in my eyes. They are the only family I have and if they behave this way, it breaks my heart.

Cleaning drop of my tear from my face, I padded towards the dining room for breakfast after taking my laptop in hand.

When I reach the dining room was empty. Well, I am thankful to get Sean isn’t it there. Somehow, I am not ready to face him as of now.

I look up and saw Anna was serving the food for me.

I want to know where Sean is, but again, my heart wants to know his whereabouts and my mind asking me to do otherwise.

Moreover, Anna will get one more reason to make fun of me not knowing about my husband.

After a few minutes of argument between the heart and mind, my heart win the battle and I asked “Anna where is Sean?” took a spoonful of porridge and in my mouth while my mind and heart is waiting for her answer.

She looks up and smirks. “Well, Mrs Hudson, we aren’t allowed to inform whereabouts the Master,” saying she gives me her famous creepy smile.

Is she kidding me? I guess she takes me too lightly. Lady, let me show you your place today.

I took the napkin from the table and, cleaning my mouth; I got up and padded three-step where she was standing, folding her hand toward her front.

I stop just a foot away from her and folded my hand to my chest.

“Who I am?” I asked, looking directly into her eyes challenging her.

“Amm Mrs. Hudson” She shutter saying this. She looks nervous. I can see that and that is what I want.

Who I am in this house” I asked a second question.

“Lady of this Mansion.” She looks down, saying this. His clenched jaw was visible to me. So if she thinks looking down will hide anything from me, then she is wrong.

“Who I am to Sean?” I asked my last question.

“Wife.. ee” Now I guess she knows where this conversation is going.

“Then how dare you deny me?” I roar and I believe the whole mansion might have heard my voice. I am generally a very calm person, but this lady has art to bring a worse side of people.

Hearing my loud voice, other maids and servants came running towards the dining room and stood at and safe distance, but I could see them all.

“If you thinking you are Sean’s favourite and he will neglect your wrongdoing towards me, then let me tell you, he will not. So far, he does not know what you did last time and you should thank me for not telling him yet. But now I guess you want me to tell him everything.”

“No, Mam I am sorry. It will not happen again.” She pleaded and tears waled in her eyes.

I do not know why, but my heart melted looking at her. Moreover, I am not a person who will snatch anyone’s Job but this lady needs to learn the Lesson and I will teach her one. By this other servant, also learn their lesson.

“I will not give you a chance for next time. You… come here” I pointed to a random girl standing with other servants to come.

Girl run to us and stood a foot away and bow to me.

“From today, you will be handling the job Anna used to do. And you. I again look at Anna. “You have two days to teach her everything you were doing till now. If you fail to do it, then count your last day in this mansion.”

“Yes, Mam” they both spoke in unison.

“Now leave,” I spoke, looking none. This bloody idiot pisses me off in the morning and spoiled my day already. Gosh.

They both started going towards the door and I again spoke “Wait”

They stopped and look at me. I look at that girl and asked, “what is your name?”

“Shannon” the Girl reply. She cute looking young girl who must be in her twenties.

I nod “You may leave” I Look at Anna and said, “I asked you something.” I remind she has still not answered the question I asked and causes her this humiliation.

Shannon and other staff run for their life and Anna stayed back to answer.

“Master has gone out of town, I guess, because he left with his luggage, but he has not informed his whereabouts.” She spoke, looking down in shame.

“How difficult it was to answer Anna?” I asked. He was irritated. I do not know I am irritated with her or I am irritated of know nothing about Sean.

She kept on looking down.

“You may leave.” Saying, I turn my back towards her. I do not know why, but I am suddenly restless.

I look towards my half-finished plate, but now my mood is too sour to eat anything. Picking up my Laptop I padded toward the living room to do some work if nothing else.

At least work will divert my mind from all the shit going on in my life for some time.

Right now, I have no mood to work for my company. Right now, I want to concentrate. I want to divert my mind completely. Mr, Luca has sent me information to hack a computer of someone and send the information to.

Government officials.

Computers have much address and deal information which I do not care to read. But one thing that got my attention is that all the deals are in millions.

If becoming the mafia has so much money, then I should be the one. I giggle at my thoughts.

It took me almost two hours to finish all the work, but at least it was done, which is a relief.

Closing my laptop and lay back on the couch to relax a little after two hours of hectic brain stressing exercise.

“Hey Hi…” I open my eyes hearing this.
