MY FAITHFUL WIFE

"Mum ,l am home Mish called as she entered the house.

She went to her room and dropped her luggages, changed into flats before coming out to look for her mother. She went to the kitchen and her mother was there cooking.

"Mum, what are you doing, l thought maids are supposed to be cooking"

Being born alone and raised in a rich family made her act spoilt sometimes.

"Yes baby you are right, but this is your Father's favourite stew l can't let them do the cooking. Besides they are human too sometimes they have to relax, they do get tired" her mother said leaving her speech less.

"Talking of dad mum when did he arrive?" she asked.

"Not long after you left,l think five minutes after your departure" she answered.

"Mum, she called out faintly, "are you okay? You seem scared mum, did something happen?, Did dad do something do you?, Mum l am here you can talk to me"

"Mish you worry alot" she faked a smile, "l am perfectly fine,now help me arrange the table the food is ready" Mrs Mukhongo said.

Even if her mother refused to let it out, it was perfectly visible in her eyes that something was worrying her. She didn't want to push her mother into talking, so she just let her be and do as she said.

She found her father seated watching a reality show. She wanted to ignore him, but Mish didn't want to make her father suspect anything fishy. Also with the perfect relationship that they shared Mish loved her father more than anything in this world. He was the definition of the perfect father in the whole world. The perfect man, as she looked at him thinking of how she will strike a conversation, her father saw her.

"Ooh princess where were you when l came back" he asked.

"I went to see Ivana dad" she lied.

"She is fine, just missing us. Dad, how was the board meeting, how did they decide?, Will Ivana be the CEO now that...

"Stop talking about things you don't know, we were discussing about the well being of the company not the next CEO" He rudely answered her.

Surprised with the way her dad spoke to her, she left and went to arrange the table after telling him. "Food is ready l will arrange the table".

She arranged everything as needed and ensured that water was available before seating on her chair. She leaned her head in her palm, she was being disturbed by numerous thoughts.

'What is wrong with him, did l say something bad? I thought now that uncle is gone and Ivana is the sole heir, he is supposed to head the company, Dad was only an interim CEO when his brother was in a coma. I need to ask Ivana if she knows what is happening in the company, maybe she will make me understand'.

Her mother brought food on the dinning table. They eat dinner in silent. It was an usual for them to eat dinner without talking about how the day have been and random things that excited them. But now no one bothered or dared to strike a conversation. Everybody was busy with his/her plate. The only sound that was heard was the sound of the plate and the spoon coming in contact.

For the first time Mrs Mukhongo finished eating infront them. She was always the last one to finish eating but not that day. Indeed it was unsual dinner.
