The Love From Vengeance

“Goodbye, my babies. Take care, and remember, Mommy always loves you!” I exclaimed happily to my little children on the phone. We were having a video call.

“We love you too, Mommy! We love you too! I can’t wait to see you!” Janice said before ending the call. That was my little daughter. Lukel was the name of her twin brother. Yup, those were my two adorable children.

They were both in Canada, living with Andre’s parents. I had decided not to bring them along for various reasons.

I was lying down on my bed when I heard a knock on the door. “Come in, it’s not locked.”

The door opened, and Andre stepped foot inside the room, dressed in his pajamas.

“You’re still awake?” I asked, sitting down on the bed.

“Yeah, I’m not feeling sleepy,” Andre answered, walking close to me. He looked kind of tired and exhausted. “Does your leg still hurt?”

“Not that much. The pain has gone down.”

“Oh, right,” he said inaudibly. “There’s this company I just finished discussing with, and we’re going to start a project with them, probably around next week.”

“Business discussions; no wonder you were asleep,” I teased him.

“It’s not that; I’ve just been thinking too much,” he explained.

“What’s the problem?”

“Well, there’s this lady who I’ve been spending so much time with lately.”

“The one you’re texting always, right?” I gave him a silly laugh, accompanied by a

grin.

He laughed softly. “Yes, the one I’ve been texting always.” The cast on his face didn’t look so good, and I didn’t like that at all.

“Come sit down next to me.” I patted the bed. Andre sighed and settled down on the bed, a few inches away from me. “I think the big man’s more comfortable now, right?” I joked.

“Yeah, I guess,” he said softly, smiling narrowly. I could tell that was a forced expression.

“Okay, so tell me what’s going on? Did anything bad happen to this lady? Did the two of you get into a heated argument or something?”

“No, no, it’s not that.”

“Then what is it?” I asked him curiously.
