LUCAS P. O. V
Why is she behaving like this, i did all this because of her and the kids. And she is paying me back with this kind of attitude, she knows i love her so much. Let me call Dante
"Hello Dante
Hi Lucas, hope everything is fine?
"Not really man, can you come to my office after work.
Sure i will be there.
OK, see you then bye.
I got to my car and drove off to the company, i got to the office looking disturbed not doing anything. I have to find a way to stop all this because i can't live without her, where did she go all this while.
She said she was going to the shop but she never went there, what game are you playing at Elle, this girl is going to be the end of me. She is doing all this to hurt me but she will not succeed, let me call Irina and check that if Elle is back.
"Hello Irina
"Hello sir Lucas
Is Elle back.
"No! sir.
"OK, how is the kids?
They are fine sir.
"OK, thanks bye.
"What is she up to, is almost 7:00pm. I sat there thinking when a heard a knock on the door.
"Yes come in!!
"Hey man!
Hi Dante, please have a seat.
Thanks man, so what up.
Is that same old story, could you imagine she told me this morning that she was going to the shop but she came there afternoon time.
"Wait! you mean she told you that she was going to the shop but went there afternoon time. How did you know she came there around that time?
I was at the shop before she came.
What were you doing there at that time huh.
"OK, i try to check on her if she was there.
"Why did you do that? Give her space Lucas, she's gone through a lot. Maybe she want a time to think alone man.
But she can do that in the house.
Maybe the kids will distract her, she want to be alone. Can't you respect that man.
I know she need time to think but i want to talk to her and explain things to her. I'm sorry what went on with her and the kids but i need her to forgive me.
You are right man, why don't you try talking to her tonight. Maybe she has come down a little.
I will do that but she is not home yet.
"What!
"Yeah, i called the house and one of the maid told me she is not in yet.
At what time did you call the house?
"Err.....around 7:00pm
OK, what says the time now?
Is 8:12pm now.
Let me call Jessica and asked her if she is still there.
OK, do that please.
"Hello! Jessica, is Elle still there, Dante asked.
"No!, she left one hour ago. Why did you asked?
"Oh Lucas want to know if she is still there.
"Oh ok, she left long time, please will you come and pick me up.
Thanks dear, i will come and pick you up ok bye.
So what are you going to do now Lucas.
I think i have to go home now.
Good man, go and save your relationship with her. You know she has suffer a lot because of you, but what you did is you never trusted her. You hurt her feelings very bad man.
I know man, that why I'm going to asked her to forgive today.
Come here man, Dante said and we hug each other. Good luck and all the best.
Thanks man, see you tomorrow. Go now Jessica is waiting for you.
OK, bye.
I left the office and went home, i press the doorbell then Pat open the door.
"Welcome sir Lucas.
Thanks Pat, where is everybody.
The kids are sleeping and miss Elle is in the laundry room, she said.
"What is she doing there?
She is helping Irina with the laundry, they are almost done. Sir please should i serve your food.
"Err....i don't feel like eating but you go and do your job when i feel like eating i will call you ok.
OK sir, she said and left. I walk inside my room and put my file bag on the bed, i then stripped down leaving my boxer on. I then heard noise coming from my closet, "who is there!. No answer, i said who is there, then i shout Irina's name.
Is that you Irina.
"No...is... me... Elle.
"Elle!, she walk out of the closet.
"Oh my God!, she said and quickly turned around seeing me only with boxer on.
Why are you half naked?
It my room remember.
"Oh sorry.
But what are you doing here?
I brought your things from the laundry.
Is the maids job to do it, why are you working yourself up huh.
I was not doing anything so i decide to help them. Please put on something.
"Oh sorry, you can turned around now.
She turned around about to leave when i held her hand, she turned around and look at our hands.
"I'm sorry i went to the shop looking for you this morning, i was still holding her hand.
It ok, i understand you. Can you please let go off my hand,.
"Oh sorry, can i have a word with you please.
OK.
Please have a seat, i said and she slowly pulled a hair and sit on it. I know i don't deserve forgiveness from you Elle, but i still want to asked forgiveness from you. I know you are doing all this to hurt me and i deserve it.
I now know how you felt all this months, you suffer all alone with the kids. You warn me so many time but i did not listening to you, i thought you hate her. But what did i do, i rather blame you for accusing her of beating the kids.
I hate myself for doing that to you and the kids, what kind of father will do that to his kids. I was foolishly blind because of me trusting Kate very much, I'm sorry that you went through all this because of me. Forgive my foolishness and stupid behavior towards you and the kids.
I did not even give our relationship a second chance, all because i was foolishly blind of what Kate was telling me. I'm sorry i trusted her more then you, i slowly went down on my kneels in front of her. I hold her kneel, I'm really really sorry Elle, you know how much i love you and the kids so much.
She sat there quietly crying, please give me the chance to start all over again with you and the kids. I want to make up to you and the kids, i want to start a new life with you all as a family.
"Please stand up, you don't need to kneel in front of me.
"No!, i will not stand up if you don't forgive me.
"Please stand up, ok i have forgiving you so stand up. She said and help me up.
You don't need to kneel in front of me Lucas, i know how much you love us. I know you did all this to safe us but you really hurt me Lucas, you did not even trust me or have a little patient for me. I wanted to tell you how much i love you, but what happen. I saw Kate coming from your bedroom and i believe you two had sex together.
Every girl will believe what she saw that day, but all this while she was fooling both of us.
"I'm sorry Elle.
"Shh...don't say that again, I'm also at fault too. I should have trusted you too, but what did i do i believe what i saw. So i agree, let start all over again, she said.
We are going to build this relationship on trust, we have to trust each other because without trust in a relationship we can't go anywhere in life. Thanks for understanding me Elle, i said and hug her tight.
