Chapter-28

Olive indeed missed her instead he was a very realistic person but he was trapped at two sides. His wife and daughter and his illegal affair with skeeter. His situation was tight he could not have that freedom any more to move around as his wife kept a close watch over him.

He was not allowed to come and see his two children or financially help them like before, Gradually 1 phone call a week then it went on. Skeeter had to vacate her flat as olive wife would often visit her by surprise. Olive's life became miserable at home he was taunted and questioned day and night he would just spend most of his time in the factory alone.

At times ski would get messages from olive's phone asking her to meet him she would run to meet him but would wait 4 hours waiting and return home disappointed.

It took 3 months for things to become back to normal. Once her child took very bad with her asthma attack and she had to inform olev he asked her to take the child to the hospital and instead of him coming to see the child his wife turned up there.

She would not stay calm she would taunt skeeter and give wrong information's about olive, instead, she would tell her that "it's OK she was willing to leave her husband and stuff" but deep down she was not willing to let him go.

Skeeter no doubts did a mistake by going to his doors and knocking on it but with no bad intentions, she thought maybe his wife will accept his other two kids.

Many families go through these problems and issues but no woman will allow her man to go to another woman but skeeter wanted olive and his family to accept the facts and allow him to at least accept his kids.

Olive was strict and he never wanted to lose any one of them, whatever he did he did it to his best maybe it was not the proper way. Indeed she was very grateful to him and do respect him.

Skeeter couple of times was threatened by his wife she would tell her that olive wanted to pay some thugs to kill her but when she confronted olive it was the opposite. She did not know what to do confused.

Once it was Christmas season and every Christmas she would go to Mumbai to spend the vacation along with her kids. There once she came across a chat a guy from abroad posed as a citizen from the UK.

Slowly there conversation grew and skeeter had taken him seriously it was not long she told that guy that her mother lived in London too and he could get in touch with her. She also informed her mother about him and gave her his number.

Her mother was very clever she rang him and had a conversation. Her mom had recognized his voice and called skeeter back. She advised her not to fall for this as this person his not British and had no accent like one.

Skeeter did not believe her mom she waited to confront the guy next time he called her. A couple of days she got a call and ski questioned him but his response was no.

He told skeeter that he was on a business trip and after a week he was coming down to visit her directly and proposed her to marry him. Skeeter was very sure whatever her mother had told her was wrong about him.

Ski had already informed olive and told him she wanted a family and was going ahead. He knew what she was going into and tried stopping her. But Ski thought he was only being jealous of her and selfish. She did not take he advise.

Weeks passed by there was a call from the so-called British guy he told ski he needed her help he was stuck in Africa and needed her to send him some money.

When she heard this she recollected what her mom told her and olive advise. She replied and asked him.

"See I do not know who you are and from where u come I had taken a liking to you, not for your money or you being a foreigner but I don't know that you have been lying to me all this while and you're, not a white guy either you're accent tell me you're from Africa and you're a dark man. So please if you have any love or concern kindly tell me the truth.

His reply was very faint and he agreed and accepted the truth. Skeeter's mother when she spoke to him that day recognized his accent and voice. Skeeter was fooled but thanks to her mother this time she was saved.

Coming back to her reports and test she was angry with olive for the answer he gave her. It's unexplainable to say what she been through and now the news of her reports it all disturbed her she made up her mind to go away from madras she hated this place and wanted to go away somewhere she had peace of mind at least in her end times.

One day she decides to talk to olive and ask him for some money she told him she never come back in his life no matter what. Olive agreed and told her he would give her the money. Soon skeeter looked into her laptop and search for a job luckily she found a teacher's job.

Soon olive had given her a lakh she looked for a house in Rajasthan where she got the job arranged for a tempo transport to relocate. She and her two kids booked their train tickets loaded the vehicle and left. 3 days of the journey they reached there destination.

The school authorities promised her they would inform her later.
