Ah.. How naive, did you really think that his heart will soften and open up to you after all these years of being married? ..No, you were delusional for thinking so.. His heart will only ever beat for his beloved Ivy.. And you.. You’re still fooling to even think he’d ever look at you the way he looks at her..
Being married with Alexander for 3 years was hard.. But you managed. You knew his heart held no place for you, you knew he loved someone else.. Another woman. Her name is Ivy, she’s been long gone even before your marriage with Alexander, she went abroad to work in her family’s business.. Yet Alexander never seems to have forgotten her.. She’s still the only woman in her heart.. And even if you tried to fill up that empty void in his heart, it wasn’t fit for you.. Because it was only for Ivy.. You often saw the pictures in his office, they’ve known eachother since childhood, they were highschool sweethearts, you never saw Alexander that happy.. Unlike with you, he was cold and distant.. Often insulting you..
One night, you were waiting in the dining hall.. You were waiting for Alexander to come home from work, you cooked his favorite meals. You waiter, hours passed.. He still hasn’t come home.. You were about to call his phone when you suddenly hear the front door click open, for some reason this made you sigh in relief, that he still wants to come home.. To you.. But that relief was short, replaced by a feeling of shock and.. Hurt?
He was carrying her.. That woman who held his heart, Ivy.. “Wh-what’s going on..? Why is she here..?” You asked, your voice trembling..
“She’ll be staying here from now on.. She just got back from the states, she’s tired so i carried her.. You can pack your things and move to the guest room, she doesn’t like it when she sleep alone..” He said, as if she was the wife and not you..
“What? No.. I’m your wife and-“ Before you could even finish, he cut you off.. His patience wearing thin. “You’re the wife, yes. But she’s the woman i love.. Not you.
