Does it bother you? No it doesn't, you look beautiful always he said awkwardly. I think its very beneficial, no one wants a chubby wife.
Anyways let's go eat breakfast. We finished breakfast and I was doing the dishes when he said something unexpected.
Olivia? Yeah? I recently got a role in a big movie and will travel for a few weeks. I stared at him blankly, my face void of any emotion
Why aren't you saying anything? Are you not angry? No I am not, you are free to go.
You can stay for as long as you want too. I said resuming what I was doing.
I would rather have you be angry with me than being like this, please tell me how you really feel.
If you don't want me to go I won't. Leon I already told you I don't mind, you are free to go. Are you serious? I am very serious. You really mean it? I do.
Something's off with you. Normally you wouldn't agree so why did you agree easily today?
Because I am not in the mood to argue today, I said slightly irritated. I went to the living room plopping on the couch. Olivia? What is it?
Are you really sure about this?
If you don't want me to I won't. And I said you can go, Listen Leon, I am in a bad mood right now and you're pissing me off.
So if you don't mind let's talk about this some other time. Olivia are you... stop! please stop, you are giving me a headache.
If you have nothing good to talk about find something to do.
But we need to talk about….. I can see you are bent on frustrating my life today.
But you know what I will leave the room for you, I said storming off to the bedroom.
I was so annoyed I couldn't focus on my work and later decided to postpone it.
I was still mad at him for leaving me all alone for seven months now he is leaving me again. Why could he never keep his promise?
He later came into the bedroom and I was about to leave when he stopped me
Olivia, I know you are angry but try to understand.
And I already told you I understand, you are free to go. It doesn't seem like what you would say. I really want to hear your real opinion.
Do you know how what I went through when you left me for seven months? Nightmares wake me up every night, I was so sick I fainted almost every day!
His eyes widened in surprise. But why didn't you tell me all these? What is the point of telling you? it's not like you can erase the memories that haunted me!
I sleep and wake up alone on that big empty bed like I am fucking single. And now you are leaving again? You are free to go anywhere you want to.
Go to Stephanie! I yelled, tears streaming down my face. I was too emotional these days. I crouched down, my face buried in my palms as I cried.
He knelt down and tried to touch me but I slapped his hand away. I went outside to the porch recalling old memories when Leon and I first met.
We dated for a year and half before tying the knot, he wasn't an actor back then so we spent quality time with each other.
But now, everything is different, he spent less time at home and spent most of his time at work leaving me alone in this big empty house
Hot tears rolled down my face as I remembered the Leon I got married to. Where did everything go wrong?
*************************************************
I woke up in our bedroom. How and when did i get here? i mumbled.
The last thing I remembered was me crying at the porch so how did I get here? I realized Leon must have brought me in. Where was he anyways?
I stood up lazily and went to the kitchen.
I brought out two bottles of alcohol and was having a great time drinking my feelings when someone snatched the glass away from my hand.
