TRUE GRIT
CHAPTER 1
LOVE
If love and wealth are inseparable what will the world be like???
But one has to toil to make money...
She felt her heart breaking every minutes because she knew that she wasn’t going to spend the rest of her life with the man she truly love. Some people would say that when there is love, money does not matter at all and she was actually part of those people who attested to that, but as time goes on, she started changing that perception. She became speechless and confused on what to do or say next, her heart kept pondering “should I tell him it was a joke or should I stand on my words” she thought. This is the first time in her life she is seeing him this depressed and she felt guilty.
“Peter please try to understand me” she finally broke the silence that was eating her up. Peter glared at her with his eye very red and this made Kourtney shivered, her blood became hot instantly. He started walking towards her and Kourtney waked backwards facing him with fear. Her mind gulped when her back hit the door, it then occurred to her that she was in his room and the door was locked she could not escape even if she want to. He grinned at her so wickedly “you want to leave me to marry someone else?” he asked as he stood at her front, she could feel his breath and he scents her captivating. “No…no… Is not…What…What you think” she stammered in fear. “This girl is a fool, she think I will let her leave after this horrible news” he thought as he smiled mischievously. Kourtney became perplexed “why is he smiling? Did he now understand me? Is he happy for me?” She kept asking without any answers. Suddenly peter gripped her wrist “what are you doing?” she asked with tears piling up in her eyes “just shut up your mouth, you aren’t going nowhere. Have waited for you for good 3 years and you just wake up to tell me you are getting married” he shouted angrily as he threw her on his bed. Kourtney screamed out in pain because her head hit the bed so hard this can’t be the peter she loved she thought as she tried to get up with tears rolling down her cheeks. He waked toward the bed and pinned her hands to the bed, Kourtney knowing what he was about to do kicked him hard on his legs but peter showed no sign of pain as he held her more tightly. Kourtney knew she can’t get out of this, “please peter… don’t do this, I beg of you. It’s not my fault” she cried out but he showed no concern, at a twinkle of an eye, he ripped off her clothes, Kourtney's mind started to race fast that she hardly breath, not because she will lose the most precious thing in her life but because she loved this man who is about to tear apart. “Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!” she screamed with pain. This was not how she wanted her first time to be, it was so painful that her eyes started becoming blur and blur all she could hear was peter’s malicious laughter then she fainted.

“I love you so much baby” Kourtney said filed with uncontrollable joy as she watched peter playing with their 3 year old daughter in the pool “sweetheart go tell your mom that everything will change” the little girl ran towards Kourtney she carried her on her arms as she repeated what her daddy said hmmmmmmm it’s a joke Kourtney thought and waved what he said.
“baby aren’t we going to the amusement park?” she asked feeling concerned for the little girl “it's actually been a month she haven’t gone there” Kourtney continued. She was surprised at how peter stared at her as if she have committed a crime. He got out from the pool and walked towards her and when he was beside her, he whispered to her ear “don’t say things that wont work out and am having a friend over to the house today” his voice was cold and his emotions was unchanged. Kourtney could not tell if he was angry or not she held their daughter tightly. Kourtney being a persistent person continued “but babe if…” she tried explaining but peter walked into the sitting room ignoring her, “why is he acting this way, did someone piss him off at work today?” Kourtney murmured, she have never seen him acting so cold towards her and their daughter.
Every Friday by 2pm, peter closes from work while Kourtney don’t go to work as they needed to make time for their daughter. But Kourtney's heart ached seeing her husband reaction she followed him inside the house which was quiet exorbitant although they aren’t one of the top wealthy persons but they live very large .
The interior of the house contains a large central hallway which gives avenue to various rooms and by the left leads to the living room which was quite big and contains large curtains, various wall paper, ornaments, side lamps etc. At the center, a wide staircase that provides the main means of regress from the entrainment area to the private rooms on the second floor. “sweetheart go up to your room” Kourtney pecked her daughter as she left. Then she sat down on the couch beside Peter who seemed to be lost in what he is doing with his tab. The living room became extremely quiet which made Kourtney feel uneasy and she stared at Peter who sensed it immediately “why are you staring at me? ”he asked in a harsh tone “why are you acting cold toward me, have I done something wrong?” She threw a question to him feeling concerned.
Suddenly the door opened and a lady stepped in that looks in her early twenties, very fair, fragile and intelligent in expression, She is putting on a light makeup and dressed in a short Pink gown and a heel of about six inches “how did she work with that?” Kourtney murmured “did you say anything? If not, am Ella” The lady asked as she sat down beside Peter giving him a kiss. Seeing this, Kourtney stood up and dragged her up from the couch “who the hell are you to walk into my home and kiss my husband?” she asked angrily, The lady gave a maniac smile and turn toward Peter “baby when is this bitch leaving your life for good” Ella asked, full of her self, “I won’t rest until I kick you out” Ella thought. “who is your baby and who is leaving?” Kourtney asked in a confused tone as she glared at Peter who remained cold and unmoved.
“you of course, you aren’t needed here anymore and don’t worry I will take care of your daughter” Ella replied with a smile. Kourtney became very mad as she slapped her so hard that she could feel the pain on her palm. Peter stood up immediately and gave Kourtney a slap on her cheeks and she staggered, “Peter!!!!”Kourtney screamed out in pains and Ella smiled on seeing this, Kourtney became more furious as she slapped Ella for the second time. “you are finished” Peter shouted at Kourtney as he gripped her hair dragging her towards the door. “that serves you right for hitting me “Ella said with a smirk. “Peter what are you doing, what have come over you, please stop this madness am your wife!!!” Kourtney cried, her scalp was red and the pain was much, As they approached the pool, Kourtney's mind became blank and her blood was hot “peter what are you doing?” she asked crying but peter stared at her coldly as he threw her into the pool and walked back into the house without looking back. Kourtney started screaming “Help! Help!” no one showed concern, she could not hold her breath in the water anymore and she passed out.© @onyx
