Dad I can’t do that.I can’t leave my wife.
Richard’..see reasons with me.I don’t think I can trust anyone soon son.
I can’t dad..my family means the world to me,I don’t want to be away from them.
Am not asking you to leave your wife and daughter,it only temporary. ..so things would work out fine.After that you will have them all to yourself.
Am sorry dad..we have to take our leave now.
He stood up immediately and Tare followed him reluctantly with pearl.
That drive home was what Tare called the worst she had ever had with Richard’…the car was as quiet as a graveyard..
She thought of what to do as her mind played the discussion they had with her fatherinlaw and father’
Her phone vibrated and it was a message from her dad’
