My Fiancé’s Ghost

 My Fiance Ghost

I love my life so much and I don’t want to die, I am so not ready for death. I want to live long enough to see my great-grandchildren, that is how much and how far I want to live.

I have not done a lot of things I have planned out for my life and I am so keen on doing them. What will I do to stop this problem? I am tired of it, this was not the plan or what I wanted for myself. I know I was wrong but I deserve to live and be happy. 

I killed her but that is not enough reason I should not have peace of mind.. no way I can’t continue living this way. 

“Moon continued lamenting and throwing tantrum.

Moon had a conversation with Ama one cold evening, they were happy and went to bed peacefully before Moon decided to have a personal conversation with Ama, Ama declined saying she was tired and can’t have that conversation till morning. 

“Why are you being rude? I want to have this conversation and it is very important, my family is on my neck and we need to know what to do next to keep everyone at ease. 

I don’t know why you always shy away from important conversations, is this how you would take care of our future family and affairs?” 

What is the matter with you Ama?

Are you mad? Ama asked Moon angrily while getting off the bed.

why can’t you let me sleep? 

Are you insane or something? 

What is the meaning of all this ranting? 

Are you not a man? 

Moon, I ask again. Are you not a man? 

Do I need to have every conversation with you before you can sort things out by yourself? 

Are you insulting me? 

Moon was so furious that he couldn’t even remember that Ama was battling with depression since her father’s death.

 I think you are very silly for raising your voice at me, I am the man of this house and you are not in any position to shout at me. I am the head and you are a nobody.

That particular statement made Ama slap Moon, she did it and realized herself immediately, Moon who was holding his cheek angrily and grunting “ then asked Ama to leave his house that night. 

Ama went on her knees to plead with him, “I am so sorry Darling, I didn’t know what came over me, I did not mean to slap you please find a place in your heart to forgive me” I promise this will never happen again, I am so sorry dear “ 

Before she could finish, Moon dragged her by her hair to the living room. Leave my house this minute woman, and this relationship is over. 

I am done.

Where do you want me to go by this time of the night? 

It is almost midnight and I said I am sorry, I was so angry when you said those hurtful words to me and you know how imbalanced I am now, please I’m so sorry. 

Moon pulled her by the hair..

You are hurting me, why pulling me like a common criminal? I am your wife-to-be, your sweetheart, and not some slave. Moon sorry.

Moon who was already furious gave Ama a blow on the face, Ama fell with her face on the ground but Moon did not stop there. 

He practically pulled her over and started punching her face with his well-molded fist.

 You are such a disrespectful woman he said as he punched her mercilessly till she could not move again.

Moon finding out that Ama was already lifeless and not responding stopped, paused, and observed her.

Ama” he called, sweetheart? Ama, get up. Let us go back to the bedroom, I am not angry anymore. Okay? We will sort everything out without arguing about anything okay? 

All the while he was talking, Ama never moved nor responded to him and that was when Moon knew there was a problem. 

Ama please, I'm very sorry baby. I did not mean to hit you, you know I love you so much and I can never hurt you for anything. I promise you that from today upwards we will never argue or fight over anything again, you are my partner and we are equal. You are the best thing to ever happen to me Ama, I am deeply sorry please get up.

At that moment Moon was already sweating so heavily with the cold weather, it was raining cats and dogs that night and everywhere was cold and quiet.

Mood ran to the room and ran outside again, shaking and turning Ama. 

What is happening? 

He thought” what have I done? Is she dead? 

Did I just kill Ama, my fiancé? Oh lord, I am doomed. What will I do? I didn't mean to “ he cried and continued shaking Ama, Ama please get up. 

Ama’s phone started ringing in the bedroom immediately and that frightened Moon as he held his heart with his left hand while shaking Ama with the right hands. Who could be calling her by this time? Oh no. 

Moon ran to the bedroom confused on what to do next, the phone continued ringing non stop. 

Moon ran towards the phone and turned it off.

What will I do now? Who do I call? I am finished, I am sorry Ama, I wish I could turn the hands of time. All this would have been averted if I had waited till morning before having that conversation knowing full well you had a rough day with your condition so I should have understood but I allowed my anger to get the worst part of me.

As he was lost in thought, he heard a knock on the door.
