Reyona’s Revenge

Annoyed that Rohan had made him look bad in front of his friend, or whatever she was,. Thomas conveniently decides not to dwell on the fact that he was the one who jumped to conclusions when he saw Rohan together with the pregnant woman.

How was he supposed to know that the pregnancy did not belong to him? After all, what kind of man would follow a woman to the hospital regarding something that was not his? Thomas still didn’t believe that Rohan had anything to do with the woman’s pregnancy, even after the latter said that she was his friend’s wife.

That was after she had laughed at him for a full minute while Rohan, the bastard, stood there with his signature-making smile, not attempting to clarify the situation to him.

Thomas still didn’t believe that Rohan had anything to do with the pregnancy, though. He wouldn’t put it past the bastard to have something to do with his friend’s wife’s pregnancy.

“Maybe the two of them were cheating on the husband,” he thought to himself pettily as he drove home. H was angry at a lot of things.

First, Reyona refused to show up at the hospital after making his mother think that she was coming there. He placed the blame firmly on her shoulder for the fact that Rohan and his lady friend lit him.

Secondly, just as she was about to excuse himself from Rohan’s mocking presence and inquisitive eyes, his mother came out of the hospital to meet him where he was standing with the two. “Tom, is she not here yet? Leah is awake now, and the doctor is checking her,” Ruth said before she realized the look that Thomas was giving her as he looked over at Rohan and the woman that stood with him.

The fact that his mother did not know who the man was didn’t reduce his anger at her for just blurting out something like that in front of people she did not know, because the next instant, Rohan’s lazy expression vanished and interest was shown on his face as he asked, “Leah? Susan’s youngest? Your wife is coming to see her. What is wrong with her?”

“Look here. This is none of your business.”

“I will tell you what is my business, asshole.” Rohan had held him tightly by his lapel in no time, his voice dangerously low as he leaned closer to him. “It is my business that my step-niece is in that hospital, and you wouldn’t let me know about it even though your wife appeared to be on her way here. What kind of idiot are you by the way that you told your wife about your mistress’s child?” he sneered at him.

“I didn’t tell her anything!” Thomas snapped back, refusing to show that the man intimidated him.

The woman behind him gave him a derogatory look even as Ruth came close to the two of them, telling Rohan to let go of her son. “Who is this young man, Thomas? I say leave him alone!” his mother said, and that even infuriated Thomas more. As he snapped at her to not interfere, Rohan turned to her with his hand still on Thomas.

“Mrs. Lanoth, pardon me for not introducing myself but I am Susan’s brother and I don’t know if your son told you that he had children with her while still married to his wife.”

“That is not something for you to judge, young man. Let him go, I say.”

“Then you know then.” Thomas could still remember the disgusted look that bastard gave the both of them before shaking his head as he pushed Thomas back when he let go of him “I can’t begin to imagine the damage that could have happened to those kids being left with people like you two, especially when they have a father who needs his mother to save him in messy situation.”

“Hey, who are you talking to?” Thoams had said in anger and his anger increased as he remembered the look that Rohan had given him before looking around Then he turned back to him and said, “I don’t think I can see any other man around here tied to the string of his mother’s apron.”

His mother’s, “Hey, how can you be so rude?” comment had gone unanswered as Rohan turned to the woman beside him and told her that he was sorry as he might not be able to go with her to the doctor. “No, it is fine,” the woman replied eagerly before giving them a scathing look as she continued, “Obviously, there is an urgent situation here for you to attend to.”

“Thank you,” Rohan replied in a gentle tone that he had never heard from him before. As he laid his hands gently on the lady’s shoulder, the latter nodded. “I will try to catch up with you before you leave,” he added.

“No, just take your time. I will just call you once I am done,” the woman said before turning away without acknowledging them.

“Did you see how that girl looked at me? What is wrong with kids these days?” Ruth was complaining when Rohan turned back to them.

“Maybe we kids these days found it shocking to see that someone of your age and a woman as well would be happy to have this done to a fellow woman, one who would have happily been your daughter. Who probably thought you regarded her as one?” Rohan said.

Thomas floored his car when he remembered the mocking grin Rohan gave him when he yelled at him to watch how he talked to his mother before he said, “Now, would you take me to where my niece is and tell me what is wrong with her, or would you prefer I go in there to ask myself?”

Thomas hated the fact that the bastard had forced his hand when he did not respond immediately by saying that he did not mind waiting around till his wife arrived anyway. “At least by then I would demand to be introduced to the woman who is sharing the same man with my sister,” Rohan said with such conviction in his tone that Ruth told Thomas to just take the rude man to the room and tell him what he wanted to know before he caused more trouble for them.

Then she declared that she was having a raging headache from all the rudeness she had endured that evening and that she would like to go for a walk. After snorting in Rohan’s direction, she turned away, leaving Thomas with Rohan.

The latter stepped aside as if allowing Thomas to precede him into the hospital, and he said with a malevolent tone, “You are such an asshole, and I hope that I could be here to see your wife’s face when she realizes who she came to visit. Now, tell me what happened to the girl,” he said as if Thomas owed him any explanation as he disregarded his protest.

“That bastard,” Thomas said in anger in the dark of his car as he hit his hand hard against the steering wheel, causing the horn to blare in the car in front of him.

The driver blared his horn back rudely. Thomas reined his anger in tightly to prevent himself from ramming his car against the man’s car from behind.

By the time he got home, he was ready to confront Reyona regarding a lot of things.

The suspicion he felt when he didn’t see her car in the driveway was confirmed when he unlocked the door, though.

She was not at home either!Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Where on earth was she?!” Thomas yelled as he threw his car key so hard toward the TV console.
