| I sat at the desk, pen in hand, ready to write the letter that would forever change my life. I frowned at the misfortune that had happened to me. I heard the kids downstairs, laughing and screaming. I closed my eyes and laid my head on my arm. I let the tears fall and hit the paper and soon, the tears were staining the paper. I mentally shook myself and pulled myself together. �You knew how long this was going on, why do you keep putting yourself through this?� I asked myself. I picked the pen back up and pushed it down on the paper. Dear Kevin, You�ve loved me, and I love you. I married you, gave you kids and everything else you asked. Yet, you hurt me so much. What did I ever do to you? Was I the lover that was wrong? Did I not complete you? Did I not please you as a wife? I�m so clueless as to why you hurt me, and I wish I could stay to know why, but the pain now hurts to much to deal with it. I�m sorry Kevin; you can have the other woman, maybe she�ll make you happier than what I did. Love Always, Theresa Richardson I sealed the letter in an envelope and left it on the bed. I went downstairs and told the kids we were going to Grandma�s. I came home, calling out to see if Theresa was home. Her car was gone and the house was dark, but I would still think she might be home. �Theresa, baby, I�m home.� I set my jacket on the couch and ran up to our bedroom. �Honey?� I glanced around, not seeing anyone. I walked completely in the room and noticed the letter on the bed. I smirked to myself, thinking this was just a game of hers. I sat on the bed and opened the letter. Just reading �Dear Kevin�, I knew something was wrong. I read the letter written in her soft hand with her feather writing. My heart broke again and again as I knew she was gone, out of my life. I hadn�t really thought she really knew about my mistress. I was hoping she wouldn�t. And then it only killed me inside when I thought she figured it was her. I looked around the room, everything that reminded me of her. She was special, unique and I had loved her; still love her. I shook my head and heard the doorbell ringing. I slowly collected myself and walked down the stairs, noticing the pictures on the wall. I opened the door and saw Nick and Megan together. �Is Theresa home?� Megan asked. �No,� was my only answer. �Where is she?� Meg asked. �I don�t know.� �How can you not know?� �Cause I don�t. Do you two need something?� �We were supposed to go out.� �Call her cell, I have no clue where she is. All I have is a letter saying she left me.� �Why did she do that?� Nick asked. �She knew about Lisa,� was my only answer. I unlocked the door and slipped into the house. I put away his jacket and cleaned up the kitchen. I went upstairs and slipped into our room. He was asleep in a tight ball, on the bed. I gazed at him, slowly looking over his body. I saw his left hand in a fist and saw the band still there. I slowly moved my gaze back to his face. He was so handsome, so strong, so awake. I took a deep breath and turned around to go to the closest. I got a few clothes and put them in a box. I went into the bathroom and got all my stuff. �It wasn�t you.� I stopped and turned around and looked at him. �I love you more than anything. I have no idea why I cheated.� �Very well. I�m sorry you did. Your love fling only ended us. I hope you�re happy Kevin and I wish you only the best. As for the kids, I�ll let you see them whenever you wish.� He got out of bed and walked over to me. �Theresa.� �Please Kev, don�t make this harder on me. It�s not easy to leave you. I love you and will always love you.� I grabbed my stuff and ran out of the room. I raced down the stairs and I felt his powerful arms wrap around me. He held me and lightly kissed my head. I looked up at him and he slowly kissed me. �Let us start all over. Our own fling?� �Not all over, it�s to much work. For now, we�ll have our own love affair |
