TWENTY FIVE
I called mom this morning. Because I saw many missed calls from her. She asks how I am, but I only said I am ok. I don’t know if they are convinced but I am.
She told me that Carmona got parole. When she was imprisoned she was also released just a few years ago. Her license was just revoked so she went to America and stayed there.
They didn’t know that it happened because they thought she was still in jail. The lawyer who handled her case before passed away so we have a new lawyer. So no one informed the new lawyer that she was on parole.
I told mom I am ok. I didn’t explain everything. But I gave her the assurance that I am good.
I set the table for Lauren and I’s breakfast. I woke up early so I cooked. She was still sleeping so I didn’t wake her up. She must be tired because we please until morning.
I stopped and smiled. I can’t believe I did it. I did it with the help of my wife. I thought it would be impossible. After the first time we had that romantic sex, it was followed by several more times. And like the first time, I didn’t lose my sanity either. It’s very clear to me what we’re doing and I’d love to repeat it.
It feels new, it tickles, it’s addictive, and every time I think about it I get butterflies in my stomach and smile. I wanted to do it again. Again and again. It’s like I’m back to being a teenager new to sex but this time it’s different. It’s like I experienced it just now and I want to repeat it in that way.
Repeat over and over with Lauren.
I can’t believe I can make it. I never thought I would be ok that easily. I’ve been struggling with this illness for many years and in an instant, I will be ok. It’s because of Lauren.
Am I really ok? I think I am because we were able to repeat it that way. We started with a kiss and ended with romantic sex.
“Hubby.”
“Oh. Why are you awake?”
“What are you doing?” she asked me again with a frown.
“I’m fixing our breakfast. Why did you get up?” My plan is to bring her food to bed and we’ll just have breakfast there.
Come on! I was thinking badly because I wanted to possess her after breakfast. As I said earlier, I want to do it again and again with her.
“Hubby, that’s my job. That’s mine and you should take a shower because you still have work.”
“I called the office and said that I will not come in. I’ll also go to the pet shop later.”
“Why?”
“Nothing. I just wanted.” She looked at me so I smiled. Ok fine, the truth is—the truth is I am hoping that what happened last night will happen again. Oh come on, I am not new to sex. But what happened last night is the best. As I said, I felt strange last night and I really want it to happen again. Well, I know she needs a rest but fuck—— just to see her and remember what happened last night I can’t help myself but get hard.
Not only was it stiff but my stomach was also tickling. The muscles, everything and I feel like partying.
“You just woke me up. So that you don’t run out of time.”
“It’s fine, wife, honestly, I am planning to bring you breakfast in bed, but since you are here, let’s just eat here.”
“Can I just take a shower first?”
“Sure, you want us together?” I asked with a smile and raised my eyebrows.
“No, hubby, I know what you want.”
“Too bad, I thought it was okay.”
“Hubby.”
“Just kidding, wife. Go ahead, take a shower.”
“Later, so we can be together. Let’s first.” And she smiled. Holy fuck this fucking stomach. I think it was too much from hunger and lost a lot. I help her to sit. I started to put food on her plate when her phone rang. She looked at me asking my permission.
“Go ahead. She didn’t hesitate to answer.
“Oh? why? Is that so? Ok, I love you, too.”
I love you too? Hendrick for sure was the one she was talking to. It didn’t ruin my day. But I feel a little annoyed. Lauren did not deserve someone like him. And he also did not deserve to have her. Not in any way. Real talk.
She put the cellphone on the table and started eating. I wanted to ask her but I chose to remain silent. Even though I’m a little annoyed because of that man but I don’t want to show it because I don’t want to ruin her day.
“Hubby?”
“Hmm?”
“Am I a fool?” she asked making me stop.
“What do you mean?”
“Am I stupid because even though Hendrick makes me hope, again and again, I still love him?” I look at her. If I say yes, will she dump that bastard? “Hubby?”
“I answered that before, didn’t I?”
“So yes?” she asked.
“You really love him?” I ask and she nods like a child. “You know, wife, there’s nothing wrong with loving him. After all, we are not the last and we know that. I am just hoping that he will accept you too when he finds out something is happening between us.”
“Why?”
“What, why? He is your boyfriend and then you have sex with someone else.”
“What’s wrong? You are my husband?”
“Wife.” Sometimes Lauren’s innocence is stupid. But I don’t know, instead of being annoyed, I am happy to explain to her. I feel that she is fragile and I am happy to take care of her. “Does Hendrick know something is happening with us?” I ask.
“Why should I say?”
“Isn’t he your boyfriend? You are the one to be loved so he has the right to know.”
“But we are a couple, and what we do is only for the couple and should not be shared with others, right?” I just nodded in response. I don’t know how to explain to her when she understands. Because she will insist that she is my wife, which is true.
“But wife, I hope Hendrick can make the right decision before we separate. About you two. I hope she can fight for you.”
“Hubby, if Hendrick and I can’t stay together and we can’t stay together, is it ok for me to have someone else? That’s okay, right?”
“Sure why not?”
“Doesn’t it feel like I am dirty because I kiss a lot of guys? My boyfriend, my husband, then another boyfriend.”
“Well, for me, not a big deal wife, because Hendrick is your boyfriend and I am your husband. And the next one is also ok if it’s your boyfriend. But it’s better if he becomes your husband too. Before you—-you know. For your safety.” She nodded at what I said.
“Hubby, can’t we just be together because we are already married?”
“Lauren.” I put down the spoon. “We already talked. I can’t because I can’t love you. Wait, don’t tell me you already fall for me.”
“Huh? No, I still love Hendrick.”
“Are you sure?”
“Of course, he’s still my boyfriend.”
“Good.”
We continued eating when we heard the doorbell ring. We even looked outside together as if we thought we could see the outside from here.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
“I’ll go,” She said.
“I’ll go,” I also presented.
“Then both of us will go.” We stood up together and went to the door. She also opened the door and we were both surprised to see Lauren’s aunt Laura with Carmona.
I don’t know what happened to me. If last night I was very scared when I saw her, today I became calm. I didn’t feel any nervousness and I could look into her eyes. I suddenly lost all my fear of her and in an instant, I wanted to be proud that I was no longer her slave. That she can’t hurt me and touch me. That I can do what I want the way I want and not the way she wants.
That I am not her bed slave. Not the monster she created.
“What is that girl doing here in our house, aunt?” Lauren asks her aunt.
“Lauren, we came here because Carmona wants to talk to Dale.”
“What for? Do you know what your friend did to my husband then?”
“Lauren.”
“Did you know?” she asked again.
“I am, she has already told.”
“That’s it. The thickness of her face stepped on our house after what she did.” I didn’t answer and just let Lauren do the talking.
“Lauren, we both don’t really know what exactly happened between the two of them. So, please, Hija, don’t act like that.”
“You’re the only one who doesn’t know how animal your friend is. Because I—-I experienced it.” I look at her as if her jaw was set because of anger.
“My husband became a monster because of her. Because of her, my husband became an animal. Growing up what was thought to be normally turned out not to be. Because of her, my husband is hurting a lot. She poisoned his young mind and because of that, my husband hurts a lot of women. I experienced how a person who experienced cruelty can be hurt by someone she considered like a parent.”
“Lauren, hija,” Carmona called her.
“Don’t mention my name. Disgusting.”
“Wife.” I held her hand to calm her.
“Dale, I’m sorry. I hope you forgive me. I regret what I did then. When this happened to me, I immediately thought that maybe God hasn’t taken me yet because I still have to face you and I still have to ask for your forgiveness. I’m sorry, Dale. Please forgive me.”
“You deserve what happened to you,” I said. “But if my forgiveness can calm you down then I will give it to you,” I added.
“Hubby,” Lauren asked in surprise.
“I forgive you,” I said.
“Dale?” Carmona cries in front of me so I approach her.
“Hubby!” Lauren called me.
I kneel so that we are equal.
“I forgive you.” I held her hand and tapped it slightly. “To lessen your burden, I will give you my forgiveness wholeheartedly.
“Thank you, Dale, thank you,” she said and continued to cry. The next thing that happened is I heard the door slam and I knew it was Lauren.
