At Cain's House...
Zoey felt Cain's grip on her throat tighter, she scratched him with her nails then pinched him harder, Cain let go and she sank on the ground coughing whilst holding her neck. Cain breathed out angrily glaring at her, she held her neck gasping as if she was suffocating....it was a panic attack, he knew it but he just leaned against the wall watching her fighting herself and struggling to breath until she calmed down. She sat looking at him with her knees up as tears filled her eyes, she didn't know what they were really for but she was hurt, all the hurt and jealous she accumulated when Bonnie came in the picture finally toppled and she stared at her feet pouring out tears. Cain rubbed his hair getting more angry and unable to tolerate such vulnerability, women and their tantrums, he couldn't withstand.
Zoey: Has it got to that level that you'd want to kill me now?
Cain: Because you don't respect yourself, you think with your p***y all the time...I hate such
Zoey: (laughed briefly) Wow....is it because of her, she's perfect isn't she? But what about her and the manager she-
Cain: You made her drunk with a purpose of her getting into trouble, that's very cunning and conniving...
She looked up at him with loss of words, what did it mean for someone to defend someone whom he utterly despised the most, she wasn't sure now and the place of which she held.
Zoey: Cain....are you sure you haven't-
Cain: Stop pestering me with questions when you haven't answered my one question I asked...
Zoey: If I deny it, would you believe me? It seems you've your mind already made up on what you think is the truth...
Cain clicked his tongue and that look of not caring from him made her shiver, he was slowly slipping away and before she knows it, he might be completely gone.
Zoey: Canaan-
He clenched his jaws flinching not wanting to hear anymore and her addressing him like that annoyed him more, well Canaan was actually better that how it was shortened to Cain but he got used to it and came to like it but his Mom hated it the most, she adamantly dismissed anyone who called him Cain instead preferred Can....oh his Mom, his thoughts drifted and his face features softened as Zoey looked at him, she slowly got up on her feet and walked over to him, she got closer and looked in his eyes, her height almost the same as his. He blinked slowly as she got a bit more closer moving her hand to touch his and as she grazed it, a loud knock came on the door downstairs. Cain frowned coming back to reality and checked his wristwatch, who was still visiting at 2 in the morning.
He walked down the corridor and rushed down the stairs heading to the front door, he looked through the peephole before opening the door to Zone.
Zone: She's here right, her car is in the driveway.
Cain: Do you know what time it is?
Zone: Why would you harbor my girlfriend here and not tell me anything....and it's not the first time
Cain: Because you're always fighting and unfortunately I'm in the middle all the time...
Zone: You are my friend and the least you should do is tell me she's here, and now that your Mom isn't here I find it very difficult for her to be visiting you just like that...
Cain: Meaning?
Zone just passed him walking inside and Cain closed the door trying to keep it cool but slowly was getting pi**ed off with all this drama...
Cain: I have a wife for Christ's sake who doesn't have to know of how we go back and let her enjoy the innocence of the marriage without you guys forcefully interrupting that...
Zone: You should have said that to Zoey or at least tell me she was here....she came running to you like the big brother she always sees you as...
He paused talking looking at Zoey by the stairs, standing there holding the rail with one hand....
Zone: Not your mother's place but here, really...
Zoey: Because I didn't want you following to my Mom's and embarrassing me in front of her or yourself, you always do staff of the sorts and truthfully I was afraid you'd beat me with the way you were so angry, at least Cain would defend me...
Zone chuckled licking his lip....
Zone: Oh how comforting to have a reliable brother like him...
Zoey: Yes he's unlike you Zone, his levelheaded and calm and he said he will do the tests himself at his workplace to prove you wrong...
Cain frowned turning to her but she didn't look at him instead her gaze was transfixed on Zone...
Zone: (chuckled looking at Cain) Really?
Cain: Um....yeah if that will ease up your mind and if you guys don't mind I'm tired and I need to sleep...
Zoey: I'm spending the night here till we do the tests...
Zone: I'm not leaving too...
Cain: Uh, jeez....you guys can sort yourselves out in the spare bedroom I'm going to sleep...
Zone: Got any food I'm starving...
Cain: Check the fridge...
He headed up the stairs passing Zoey and went in his bedroom. He immediately thought of Bonnie's room and how weird it would look if those two find out they were sleeping in separate bedrooms. He stepped out and locked her door, they will have to use another bedroom...he got back in his bedroom and Bonnie was still soundly asleep.
He removed his clothes and walked in his ensuite where he quickly took a shower, he walked back in minutes later in his shorts and got in bed beside Bonnie. He looked up the ceiling as the house grew quieter but he couldn't find any sleep. He reached over for the sleeping pills and had one but they never really worked on him especially when he's so worked up like this, it'll take a long time to collect his thoughts and calm himself to get enough shut eye, most of the time it'll already be in the morning. He sighed and turned to Bonnie her half done hair meeting his face, maybe that could distract him. He sat up and put her head on his lap taking her hair in his hands and begun working on it remembering how he perfected this skill on his Mom, he smiled a bit, Bonnie had his Mom's aura somehow and it brought him peace...
In the kitchen Zone shoved in food in his mouth hungrily whilst Zoey just looked at him as she sipped juice, he looked like someone who was about to die out of starvation but the way he was eating was making her hungry too. It was how he was slurping that macaroni and the little fat remaining on his lips made her salivate, she had denied eating out of pride but her stomach grumbled reminding her that she hadn't eaten throughout the day too with all the drama that was happening.
She opened the fridge and once again just marveled at how neatly it was packed, was it Bonnie's doing? She didn't want to think about her because the more she did the more she loathed her. She dished for herself then placed the plate in the microwave and stood by continuing in their silence.
The microwave timer dinged as Zone placed an empty plate in the sink...
Zone: Can you take care of that for me please...
She just rolled her eyes taking her plate and pulled a chair sitting down, she begun eating judging already that someone was really being given husband treatment, of course who wouldn't choose Bonnie for a wife....she gave wife material vibes. This annoyed her so much she got full, she dumped the plate of half eaten food in the sink, it was carbs anyways and she didn't want to get fat.
She stepped out of the kitchen and stopped on her tracks looking at Zone laying down on the couch looking at the TV screen with no volume on, what was he even watching....
Zoey: I'm going to sleep...
She mumbled the words then headed up, Zone picked the remote switching the TV off following her, the stairs groaning softly to their footsteps. Zoey tried the first door of the guest bedroom she always used but it was locked. She frowned and followed Zone who passed her then opened the second guest room's door. Still not talking to each other they just laid beside each other on the bed staring up...
Zone pulled the duvet over his body and turned sides facing the wall closing his eyes...
Zone: Switch off the light...
She got up and switched it off in annoyance then laid back down, her ears sharp for any sounds, she blinked slowly by each passing minute while she wondered how Cain came to conclude that she might have been sleeping with her boss, who even told him that. She never got the answer as she just zoned out and fell asleep, Zone fixed her sleeping position as she begun snoring, one thing he hated about her.

In the morning Bonnie opened her drowsy eyes feeling the softness of skin around her, it was so warm, so comforting, she wanted to fall back into sleep again but a sharp abdominal pain made it impossible to sleep again, was her period coming. Her Flo period app tracker was never wrong and it probably was happening that very day
Wide awake she noticed she was in Cain's bedroom, on his bed and in his arms. She didn't that part of her coming to sleep in here, although she did remember him plaiting her hair or was it all again her imagination, she touched her head and yep it was sore which meant everything really happened and those pills making her forget and hallucinate staff were slowly fading out of her system. But this cutting pain she was feeling on her abdomen and back was really getting to her, it was so painful. She groaned changing sides and immediately met with Cain's opened eyes which made her heart skip beats and drum in her chest...
Cain: What's wrong you look like you've seen a ghost?
Bonnie: How did I get in here?
Cain: You flew....of course I got you in here Bonnie and a simple good morning won't harm you
Bonnie: I don't want to talk...
He shook his head but slowly moved his hand on her thigh and locked in fingers with her. She looked at him thinking what was he trying to pull off now, he drew close planting a soft kiss on her lips and she closed her eyes. Cain kissed her some more and she thought yeah this part was her now dreaming, she probably fell asleep again and this was now a dream. She kissed him back and it was soothing, so soothing she couldn't feel that pain on her back or maybe she was so distracted to focus on it. Cain turned her making her lie on her stomach then lifted her up a bit placing a pillow underneath that belly, her knees contorting a bit, a half doggy style. With her head on the pillow facing the wall, Bonnie clenched the sheets tightly as she felt her walls opening up and the fact that she offered no resistance surely made her believe she was dreaming because she vowed to not do this with him again when he found her body unattractive.
She felt him slowly ramming in and she just thought oh f**k these are the spiritual husbands her Mom talked about, they always come wearing the face of a person you know and definitely win you over. She was h***y no wonder she was attracting spiritual husbands now but one thing she knew those husbands never satisfy you, they leave you more hornier the time you wake up.
In the guest bedroom...
Meanwhile Zoey opened her eyes to a cold hand touching her back, she turned furiously but frowned looking at Zone who just turned too giving her his back....what was that, he had been tossing and turning endlessly and before she could figure out why she heard a moan. She laid still sharpening her hearing and it came again, this time lengthier combined with labored breathing, she heard bodies clapping against one another it was so vivid. She swallowed understanding the reason why Zone was acting up....nigga was probably h***y from all that he was hearing but couldn't relieve himself.
Zoey sighed and heard Cain grunting, his voice so deep and it was probably that feeling when his hand is around your throat while he's inside you-- stroking you, staring into your squinted eyes, calling you his. He was probably groaning into her ear, going harder, enjoying every scream and the digging of her fingers into his back. She swallowed, Bonnie must've been begging him not to stop and he would give his all f**king her harder, their bodies clapped louder, her moans muffled due to him taking her lips in his while at it. It was an edge of death, danger and a glimpse of paradise, two worlds colliding...it bothered her she took her earpods plugging them in but even with the music playing it was as if she was still hearing them f**king.
Zone got up and walked to the bathroom to relieve himself and Zoey sat in bed so pi**ed, he was probably getting her pregnant and he lied to her. She felt hot she walked to the bathroom passing Zone who was peeing and she took a cold shower.

Later that morning after dozing for some time Bonnie woke up to the fragrance of Cain's cologne in the air, it was satisfying at the same time made her feel dizzy and even though she was cuddled up and buried underneath the thick duvet she still felt shivers throughout her body.
Cain: Morning...
Bonnie: I think I am sick...
Cain: What is it?
Bonnie: I'm having a serious headache, I'm cold and....and I'm just sickly
Cain: Oh that's normal but do you think you can go to work?
Bonnie: I don't know how I'll be feeling then, if I'm better I'll go...
Cain: Ok morning sickness fades into the day....I was supposed to go with you to the hospital today but something else has come up we will go for a proper checkup together some other time...
She nodded and wrapped herself some more with the duvet, feeling her bare skin on her hands, her forehead furrowed and Cain noticed.
Cain: Don't ask, yes we did and you're not hallucinating about it...I'm going to make a cup of coffee, you want one.
Bonnie: Coffee will keep me up but tea yes...
He nodded and stepped out in his work clothes, Bonnie grabbed his robe and put it on then picked her clothes up remembering the s*x and how she came harder, it was too good to be a dream, the part were he told her I love you rang in her mind and she was lost in ecstacy she told him she loved him too.
She shook her head sitting down on the toilet peeing, both of them were under a hazy of passionate s*x and every word said then was due to that and must've been false.
She wiped the slimy discharge twice as it kept oozing then flushed, she walked by the sink and washed her face and stepped out. In the passage she frowned looking at Zoey stepping out of the guest room and Zone behind her....
Zone: Mainini how's it?
Bonnie: Ndiribho murisei {I'm fine how are you}?
Zone answered back before all three of them walked downstairs, Zoey observed how tired she looked and she even had a hickey on her neck....wow Cain!
As they took the last step Cain walked out of the kitchen holding two cups with a hot steam dancing on top of them.
Zone: Is that for me?
He clicked his tongue and passed Bonnie the mug...
Cain: Why did you get out of bed? Go and sleep it out...
Bonnie: I want some eggs with it...
Cain: You should have said so-
Bonnie: Don't worry I will make them myself...
Zone and Zoey stood quietly just hearing them exchange a conversation then Bonnie walked into the kitchen but immediately turned back.
Bonnie: Who left dirty played with leftover food in the sink?
Zone confrontationally looked at Zoey who just put out her hands showing her long nails then walked out...
Bonnie: I'm not picking up after her Cain...
Cain: Leave it I will deal with it when I come back I've to get to work....
Zone: We are going together right?
Cain nodded and softly kissed Bonnie on the lips and she was taken by surprise....
Cain: I will call to check on you...
She smiled briefly and waved at Zone as both man stepped out while she observed their similar body built and how one was a bit taller than the other. She turned into the kitchen and took a bit of mealie meal in her hand then sat down eating it whilst sipping on her tea looking at her reflection on the shiny bread-bin....her locks were perfect but wondered what time Cain slept, seriously.
At Cain's workplace...
Still that same morning in the laboratory Cain sighed looking at the tests that both turned out positive. He discarded them and exchanged them instead labeling the names, he removed the latex gloves and collected the items needed stepping out.
He walked back in the office where Zone and Zoey were seated waiting and still not talking to one another....
Cain: Here are your results...
He handed them each a slip that they both looked at...
"Negative" they both said at chorus...
Cain: Yeah it's not an STI Zone, the itching and the burning could be a urinary infection which you can get anywhere not through s*x but I will give you an injection to treat it, if it doesn't stop and it persist even after that then we will further do more tests...
Zone: (frowned) More tests?
Cain: Of prostate cancer or something else....lower your pants and boxer briefs please...
Zone stood and unbuttoned his jeans and lowered his shorts then turned facing Zoey who looked at his hard-on, Cain sank in the injection on his butt and sighed that it was done with.
Zoey: What did I tell you? You falsely accused me of sleeping around...
Zone: What can I say, I'm sorry...
She walked over and pulled up his pants then buttoned it up, Zone hugged and kissed her as Cain stood behind them watching.
Zone: (turned) Thanks man...
They fists bumped then shoulder bumped and Zoey walked over hugging Cain...
Zoey: I knew we could count on you thank you for coming through once again...
Cain slightly tapped her back before releasing her from his arms...
Cain: You guys go I have to do some research now...
They nodded and walked out as Cain took his phone typing a message to Zoey...
Message: You have to come in for your own injection and don't involve me in s**t again...
Walking to the restrooms Zoey opened and read the message then reacted to it. She stepped in the bathroom and opened her palm looking at Cain's hair she secretly plucked out, she wrapped it on a piece of toilet paper. She didn't know if it would be reliable but she was going to use that to do DNA and see if Cain was the father of her son....
