Not Trapped with You, Not Trapped in LoveChapter 1:The End Of A Decadal Marriage
It was our tenth wedding anniversary.Over a decade,I had given all my life,my youth,my beauty and hard work in the name of a man.But in the end,I left with my own baseless feelings.
I filed a divorce petition against my husband,Ryan Farnanadez.
The gift he had given me,was lying on my lap,the innocent puppy.
When I looked at those pair of innocent flickering eyes,I recalled the old days when I was still young and could fall in love.The innocence I held at that time,was now ruined by Ryan,that arrogant bastard.
Ryan was always surrounded by young and beautiful girls.He played with those girls nearly the age of eighteen and even spent nights together.He never cared for me.But I was not someone who could accept an open marriage and let her partner do whatever they wanted.
I set my eyes on the puppy again,he was licking my palm and caressing its furry body on me like back then when Ryan would pester me always.
I didn't want it anymore or should I say I didn't want to recall those memories anymore!
I sent the puppy back to the pet store.
Ryan didn't reply to any of my messages which I sent him an hour ago,I wondered if he saw the divorce agreement.
Well,nor did I care!Over a decade,my heart had gotten numb and used to live with his indifference.
After the puppy was gone,the already empty house was now lonier.
I didn't want to do any housework.Well,even if the house was big enough to hold almost fifty people,it could never become a home.
I took a long hot shower,letting all my worries,hard work and sorrows run down with the flow of water.If only I could be like water and could wash the dirt of my life away from me.
“Ryan!My biggest mistake…”I mumble.
When I came out of the washroom,my eyes were red after a long shower.I went to bed without drying my hair.
…
I didn't know how long I had been sleeping but I woke up with the sound of hard knocking on the door.
“Ugh!”I grunted as I was still half asleep.
When I opened the door,I found a delicate young girl sobbing on the door.
It was Zenelia Devis,Ryan’s new secretary.She was a college graduate and the only daughter of Farnanadez’s business partner.
“Now what's with all this drama!”I uttered in my mind but didn't let it out.
“Why…are you here?”I rubbed my eyes to flee the slumber away.
She was crying like a child!
Young,beautiful and unrestrained.
