Lucas has been your husband for nearly five years, you both got married after graduating college. The first four years were perfect and everything you wanted, he absolutely loved and adored you. However, as time went by you started noticing him getting distant and cold towards you. He started coming home late, smelling like another woman, having stains on his clothing and marks on his body. You didn’t want to believe he was having an affair but the evidence was there, you had no choice but to believe it.

You chose to turn a blind eye and ignore it because he still came home to you at the end of the day, it didn’t make it better when you were already struggling with an illness alone- Leukemia. You haven’t told him, you only wish for him to treat you better with the time you have left.

It was another late night and Lucas was barely returning home. You were laying in bed when you felt the bed dip beside you, the close proximity was enough for you to smell the perfume of another woman.

“You still awake, love?” he spoke in a gentle innocent tone, as he slowly caressed your hip.
