Anna thought that meeting with Joseph would help her solve the mystery, she had asked her inlaws and none was able to answer her, she wanted to hear from someone else. She had never asked Joseph to give her confidential details about his patients before, but she was going to do it after she confronts her husband for the last time.
She met him drinking as usual, but she was happy he wasn't drunk yet and he wasn't looking as scary as he used to be, he was sitting at the garden and talking to the flowers, she wondered if he was already running mad, she dare not say anything to anger him, but she was ready for any form of brutality that was to come.
Their little Angel had gone to school, so she had all the time to talk and if possible settle the case, his attitude was killing her softly, it was already making her feel like a worn out being, she was even looking older than her age, she nodded her head, she must' not allow fear envelope her today, she must get it done today, she also resolved within herself that no matter what she encounter's while trying to get answers from her husband she must bear it and not run off like the other time.
She moved quietly and could see him in the garden talking with Dr Joseph, he was giving him some drugs and also taking away his bottle of alcohol, he didn't want her drinking it, he was trying to work with him, when he turned back feeling someone was watching him, he saw Anna and tried to tell her with his hands to go away but she wasn't ready to listen, she stepped closer, the more she gets closer to the two men the more her knew felt numb,she was scared to her Geeta walking towards them was almost with difficulty.
"Good day doctor.
said the moment she got to them, she pulled out the seat and sat opposite her husband, she looked at the confused doctor and spoke softly "if you don't mind, I will like to have a private time with my husband, we want to discuss"
Though she has the right to request to see her husband, Dr Joseph was so angry, he didn't like the tine he spoke with, she sounded like someone who was ready to die, who was ready for anything. He tapped Andrew and walked away, going far away to hide behind the Spinach tree, he didn't want anything to get out of hands, most importantly he didn't want Andrew to hurt Anna.
"What are you doing here, didn't I make myself clear enough that I do not want to see you around me?
He asked not looking up at her, his action didn't even move her a bit, she wasn't scared, she was only made stronger, she smiled and said with boldness that even she didn't know she had.
"Well, I want to have a discussion with my husband, I don't think that is too much to ask, even the dumbest person in the world could ask for such tiny favour"
Andrew that didn't want to look up initially, looked up and could see the fire in her eyes, she seemed to be ready for him today, she didn't look scared, he became worried, his actions have turned his once innocent wife into a fierce lady.
"Alright go on, I am all ears"
Anna was so happy she had gotten his attention peaceful, the first stage had gone well, now she was to start her second stage, she swallowed hard as though she had lump in her throat, before she prepared her next line of thought.
