In Love With My Son-in-Law

Am so sorry

OPHELIA POV

I paced up and down while in my bedroom. I could not believe that what I was doing was really true. I mean which type of mom could be meeting her son in law in her own bedroom yet it is the night of jer daughter’s wedding and first day in marriage .

But then I had no option. I had to do this if at all I wanted this to end. That was the only way that the guilty conscious that I had was going to get over. It was the right for me to get a peace of mind that I really was dying to get.

I kept looking at the entrance of the door to check if at all he was there but all was the same all the time when I checked. He was not yet there .

“May be it was wrong for me to do what I had done. I could not have called him.” I contemplated but it was too late. I had already called him and that was not changing. He could either come or not .

“What if he thought that I had called him because I still wanted him to kiss me- no!no! I know he doesn’t think like that .” I kept contemplating but even with this I had no one to answer me. I rather remained without an answer .

It was only my son in law who had an answer all the questions that were rooming in my head. After waiting for some more ten minutes but there was still no sign of him. At this moment my phone had started ringing . Every one including my own daughter had called me to ask where I was.

Of course I was always getting a way of lying to them . For my daughter , I badly wanted to ask her if she was with her husband but I could not get the courage to do it . I was afraid of what she could possibly think if at all I asked about where her husband could be.

What I knew was that they were about to leave for their honey moon but I badly wanted to care everything with my son in law. For sure I could not believe I was in such a situation. How the hell had I gotten into this situation? Aren’t I supposed to be all happy and seeing my daughter off for her honey moon.

The thought of all these made me feel even more anxious but just as I had given up and was moving towards the door, it opened before I get hold of the door knob. I could not believe it. There he was. He was standing composed still in that suit .

I had not before realized that he was this muscular . Maybe it is because I have not been seeing him so often as he was dating my daughter. I looked into his face one and looked away. I was not even able to observe the look in his eyes.

I don’t know why but I just could not look in his eyes, I was so shy to do that. All that went through my mind was the kiss that I shared with my daughters’ husband. God, if it was possible I could pray that you help me forget all about that kiss, please.

And now at this right time he was standing in my bedroom with me yet he was supposed to do final touches with his husband before they go off to their honey moon. I felt the whole place all tensed and I could clearly feel so much tension all over the room.

I had been with him so many times in the same room but none of them ever seemed like this. This was an encounter that I could not even put a name to. This was not the prominent business woman whom everyone got afraid of once it was said that I was to be in a specific place about business.

I opened my mouth several times but it was literary betraying me. It was actually like it was doing it intentionally. I did not even look up to see what his reaction was.

“Hey.” I managed to say the first word. My sub conscious glared at me and smirked but I just ignored her . She has no idea what I was going through.

“Hello.” The husky voice beside me said. I felt even more tensed . I could not believe I was like this . But I was going to over come this either I wanted or not and that was going to be as fast as possible since it was the right thing to do .

I was actually glad that he had said something but then how was I going to begin all this.

“The…th..e…I mean…” I stammered but I was not able to construct a full sentence . I just could not come up with any even if I wanted to . But then I had to construct a full sentence since I was the one who had called him and so I had to give a reason for calling him.

“Look, Ophelia . I am so sorry for everything.” He started before I could say anything more. I was prompted to wait more and see where this was going

. For the second time, I was prompted to look up at him. He was completely calm. It was though nothing had even happened. This made me also gain some confidence and looked up at him without looking around like I had done before.

“I am so sorry that I kissed you earlier.” He said the words that were actually going through my mind all that time. That was the thing that has made me un easy the whole day.

“Look, Ophelia. I don’t know what was wrong with me at that time. It was like I had been occupied by something and I mistook my wife for you .” he went on to examine and what I did was to lesson attentively .

“I was just happy about this whole wedding and you know you look like each other and that is how I ended up kissing you.” He went on and then paused up a bit before going on.

“I felt so ashamed after words after realizing what I had done and that is why I did not say a single word. I decided to run away since I was so ashamed but let me hope you understand me.” I was relived and yet at the same time I was not really relived with what he had said.

I smiled to let him know that all was okay and after he told me that since all that was solved, he had to go and meet his wife as they were to set off for honey moon very soon. I nodded my head to make him know that all was okay and so he could do.

The moment Rio got out of my room, I released the breath that I did not know that I was holding all this time. I quickly headed to the fridge in my bedroom and got a glass of water. I did not even know how I had ended up carving for water.

There were so much roaming in my head after the explanation that I had gotten from my son in law. There was something that was not making sense from it but I did not want to make my self think so much over it .

The good thing was that Rio had cleared the air about everything and what I had to do now was to make sure that all things are forgotten- I mean about that scenario. I was going to try as mush as possible to to act like I had never felt the lips of my son in law on mine.

That was what I was going to do no matter what .
