OLIVIA
I have tried, the Lord knows, I have tried. I have tried to keep the promise I made to my husband for the sake of our child. I have tried to be brave, to endure but it’s too difficult. Each day I see less and less of my husband. Each day lose a part of me, a part of my marriage, my happines
I feel like I was never meant to be happy in this world. At least not with someone by myside, maybe my destiny Is to remain alone, rasing my kids and working to make a life for them. One that will be way better than the one I had. Maybe I should just give up on love and focus on those who need me the most. My kids.
I have desperately tried to love, first it was Nick, I gave hiny all and he betrayed me. Now Marcus, the man is doing the most for the woman who came into my home as a nobody, just carrier for my child but now seems to own my home. My house no longer feels like home and I noveldrama
myself not wanting to go back at the end of the day.
I used to look forward to going home but now being home torture. How do I keep watching my husband being overly friendly with another woman? It didn’t look or feel like he was acting anymore. He comes to bed late at night and leave very early in the morning.
By the time I wake up, the space he slept on is already cold as if he was never there, only the messed up blankets provided me with the comfort that he at least stayed by my side for a couple of hours. I sighed opening the car door and getting out. I have been sitting in the car in front of the house for over an hour now contemplating on whether to go in or not. I walk to the door and the first thing I hear is her loud laughter that filled my house. She is the lady of the indeed, for her to be that comfortable. I worry about my son for now, he has a depressed mother who only works to keep her mind off things. I keep telling myself that it won’t be long until the baby is born but the days seem to drag long, making the months even longer.
I twisted the door knob and walked in. “Am home I announced myself with a low voice hoping they will hear and stop whatever they are doing so I don’t see it. It hurts too much to see him doing things for her that he should be doing for me. Like giving her a foot rub. As usual, none of them notice my presence. Jennifer has her feet on Marcus’s lap and they are watching TV with one of Marcus’s hand on the arm rest and the other on her foot. A sigh left me, tension gathered on my chest.
I walked away to my room and took off my shoes. Marcus walks in and gives me his usual smile. Like he didn’t really want to come greet me. “My love, I am sorry you are having such a hard time with this. But we are almost there. Hang in there a little while longer.”
That has become his thing now, every time I come from work, he gets away from her and comes to our room and tell me that. Then kiss my forehead and leaves. It’s like he can’t stand to touch me anymore. He doesn’t kiss me or hug me. I asked him about that once but he changed the subject and walked away. I never asked again.
He turns to leave but i grab his hand to make him stop. “Is this our lives now?” I questioned, he lowers his head looking everywhere but me. He is ashamed, I can tell. “Am hurting baby, my breaks every time I have had to come back to this house. It no longer feels like a home anymore, it’s cold and depressing. Even our son can feel it.” My poor boy, he hardly makes any noise or go out of his room anymore. If he is not at school then he is in his room. Ethan tries but I can tell he is depressed. I can’t even help him because I need help myself. Don’t ask what kind of help, I just know am not coping. “I have to go.” He says then frees himself from me before walking away. Stupid Oliver, I thought you said you were giving up. This has happened many times and yet. You still have hope that things will change.
I wipe my tears with the back of my hand and take off my shoes. The door opens and I lift my head to look. My heart skipped a beat thinking it was my husband coming to comfort me for a change. But no, it was the witch coming to rub salt to my wounds.
“I am going to say this one last time Olivia, I don’t like Marcus coming to your room. You must understand that he is with me now and I am pregnant. I don’t need this stress. My blood boiled. “Jennifer, this is still my house and
Marcus is still my husband. He has right to come into this room.” She scoffs folding her arms. “You like
being pitiful, you know that? Give up already and just leave Divorce Marcus and leave us in peace.” I can’t believe she said that.
She wants me to willingly leave my husband for her. The weman has no shame, how can I misjudge her like this, what blinded me so much that I didn’t her for who she is. A snake. “Am not leaving my husband, you can forget that.”
She smiled at me but it’s the creepy kind and then she said it. “I bet I can ask Marcus to Divorce you before this baby is born and have you out of this house.” She tilted her head to the side like a demented person. “Wanna bet?”
