Chapter 22 - Chapter 22

Your ex was supposed to be a closed chapter so why the hell is her face popping up every fucking time?

I already told you Stephanie and I are friend's, it's just a friendly hug.

A friendly hug huh? Maybe you shouldn't have broken up with her back then, who knows if you guys are planning to get back together.

So you don't trust me? We are married Olivia.

But you keep acting like we are in a fucking relationship!

I already told you so many times I don't like it when you guys are together but you still went on to being friends with her.

What kind of a husband are you?!

You also have a knack of ruining any peaceful moment. What exactly is the problem? Or am I the problem? Did I do something wrong?

I was short of words and didn't know what to say. She was right, I was an awful husband, three years in marriage Olivia had never did anything that dissatisfy me.

I really am the problem. She said something unexpected that brought me out of my trance.

"Have you ever thought about getting a divorce"?

What do you mean a divorce? Who's divorcing who? i asked nervously. Think about it, if we get divorced

You won't be tied to anyone, you would have the freedom to do anything you want. We are not getting a divorce Olivia, I will never agree.

Leon, I love you so much, you know that. But the longer we stay with each other, the more pain cause for each other.

We are not getting a divorce Olivia. I would do anything to make sure of that. She hugged me tightly. I really hope you keep your promise this time around Leon, I really do.

Don't ever bring up divorce again okay? She didn't reply. Now that we are it, we have a lot to talk about Olivia. She pulled away. What's going on?

So I've been thinking….you know we get intimate almost every night, she nodded. And you said you have stopped taking the pills right? Yes I did, what wrong?

She managed to put the pieces together and quickly understood what I was trying to say.

We have to discuss this again? I swear I am not taking any sort of birth control.

So what may be wrong? I said thoughtfully. Do you think we should meet the doctor? I suggested and she frowned. No, I hate doctors and hospitals

When the time comes I'll have my baby she said. But I am concerned about your health. Do I look sick? That's not what I meant

You recently lost a bit of weight….and I told you that's a blessing in disguise.

My point is, maybe you have some…..Leon please stop I don't like where this conversation is going. Jeez must you always annoy me?

Anyways i'm going to bed, she said, her eyes scanning my body. She took her time checking me out and didn't even realize her gaze was turning me on. You done? Her eyes widened when she realized i caught her. She quickly looked away.

You want to sleep? At this time of the day?! It's 12'pm.

I spent the whole night scrolling aimlessly on social media so I am sleepy she said and went to the bedroom

Olivia's P.O.V 

This is why I hate screen timing at night. My head feels like a mush. I couldn't sleep and it got to a point my head was pounding.

I searched everywhere for painkillers but found none. Leon? Leon! I yelled and he rushed in.

What's wrong?! My head feels like it's going burst I said in the most dramatic way I could come up with.

You'll feel better once you sleep, he said patting my head gently and I flinched. Did I hurt you? This particular spot hurts, I said parting my hair. Is something there? No, I see nothing, he said.

He offered to give me a head massage and I couldn't hope for more. But soon, i regretted my decisions
