(MY SPECIAL LOVE STORY)


He didn't respond to her calls.

He took a shower and walked around his cold empty mansion.

His maids and drivers had left.

And now, he was going to loose Rita.

He relaxed on one of the sofas in the sitting room and pondered.

Suddenly there was a soft knock on the door.

He opened the door.

It was Rita.

He gasped at the sight of her and stepped back.

"What happened? Your gateman...no one was at the door. The gate was left ajar".

He searched her eyes. "Didn't you hear any news about me or see any video?".

"Did your workers leave you?". She asked him worriedly.

He nodded sadly. "You came to say goodbye right?".

She searched his eyes. "If I say goodbye to you, how will i live after that?".

"You didn't see the news about Linda and me?".

"She framed you. Linda is working for the two groups".

"You are not mad at me?".

"I can't be mad at you when everyone is mad at you". She sighed as she looked around the house. Coolval stories "It is so damp here". She walked to the kitchen and returned with a mopstick and mopbucket filled with water and soap.

He rushed to stop her. "What do you want to do? I will employ new maids right away".

She ignored him and began to clean the floors with the wet mopstick. "You didn't even brush your hair. You were busy thinking alone, believing that it is your fault".

He touched his hair and watched her. He couldn't express how he felt that moment in words. How could she touch his heart so much? "Thank you, Rita".

She ignored him and continued cleaning the floor.

There was a knock at the door.

He rushed to open.

It was his mother.

Before he could say a word, she hugged him.

"M...mum". He muttered in her arms

"Shhhh". She shushed him and looked up, with her arms still locked around him. She gasped immediately she saw Rita cleaning the floor behind them. She released him. "Is that not Rita?".

Rita stopped cleaning and looked up at her.

Tears filled Raymond's eyes. "She saw the news but she still chose to stay by my side".

Tears filled the eyes of mrs Anderson. "A woman can do all the chores in the world and still cook the best food in the world but it doesn't still complete her as a wife material. The real wife material is the one that sticks by her husband and never leave him".

Rita smiled. "I love Raymond. Can you let go of the hand of the one you love?".

Mrs Anderson walked to hug her. "The day you came to my house, I was not looking for someone with excellent cooking skills, I was looking for this".

"So, you accept me now?".

Mrs Anderson released her and smiled to herself. "Even if my daughter in law is still a little bit annoying, I will manage her like that".

They broke into laughter.

Just as Raymond had expected, the journalists started making suggestions about interviewing him.

Since there were lot of journalists asking for interview, he made it a press conference.

"Raymond Anderson, a lot of people have been curious about your recorded sexual affairs on social media. Whom do you have a relationship with between the two female writers?Rita Anabel David or Linda Justice?".

He smiled to himself. He knew the two groups were watching him that moment. They will be so shocked about how prepared he was. "Rita Anabel David is my fiancee".

"Are you insinuating that Rita Anabel David is your fiancee while Linda Justice is your sexual partner?".

"I was framed by Linda Justice". He said softly and watched the rising confused voices among them.

The vigilant journalist faced him squarely. "We all saw the video and it didn't look like you were framed. Do you have a proof to back up this accusation?".

He chuckled. "How can someone like me, as influential as I am, not have CCTVs in my house? The person that chose to frame me is the most foolish person in the world". He beckoned to Rita and on a large projector on the wall of the hall displayed several recorded video clips.

(First clip displayed the big compound of Raymond)

(The day Raymond's tyre had gotten flat).

The 'Supposed mechanic' grabbed Raymond's driver hard on his collar and said some threatening words to him.

He walked to the security men and beckoned to them. He whispered some words that looked like he was bribing them.

Few minutes later, Linda Justice drove in.

She smiled to herself and walked into the house.


(Another clip)

(In the kitchen)

Linda Justice walked into the kitchen and beckoned to the frightened maids. "Do you want to travel abroad?".

"A....abroad?" They chorused.

"Yes. You will fly abroad but you will only help me slip something into his food before I arrange that for all of you".

"Poison?".

"No, just something that will make him sexually active, that's all".


(Another clip)

(Background: Raymond's room).

Linda Justice walked into the room and undressed.

Raymond rushed into the room unconsciously and jumped on her right there on the bed.


(Back to the present)


There was chaos in the hall after the sections of clips had been played right there on the screen.

Raymond answered no more questions as he held the hand of Rita Anabel David and walked out of the hall.

He smiled and turned to her. "Where is Linda Justice?".

"Locked behind bars as we speak".

He smiled to himself. "The president and your father will have a big quarrel very soon and there will be no Ay Ay Chatapurai".
