Chapter 12

1962 Words
Eve I have just entered Cami’s neighborhood. Just right down the corner from her home. It is nice and calm at this time. Beautiful families are outdoors enjoying the warm weather. Seeing children playing and laughing. It is really amazing how a human can grow into another human. And then raise that little baby to an adult. I just thought of how nice it would have been to occupy my life with one or two little ones running around. I always wanted to have kids. I wanted them before I got too old. I didn't want to be that old lady who their friends think is their grandmother. Yeah it would, but then you’ll have to deal with Mark forever. He will be the father of your children. And we will still have to talk to him because of the kids. Ugh yeah no. Besides, he has always told me to wait for the right moment. And at that moment he just got pushed more and more until he didn’t want them anymore. I never really made complete peace with that thought. I still wanted kids. We kind of just did whatever he wanted. Whatever please Mark, Mark got it. We would hardly even ask questions either. Maybe that is why he has been so distanced from me. The times he been getting so upset is when ever whenever I question him. Like he is so surprised at my statement. Don't start to blame yourself. Mark is the only person at fault here. he cheated not us. Yeah, but maybe there was something I could have done. Something to make him stay faithful. There is nothing we could of done more than what we have already been doing. If we arn't good enough for him. Then f** him. We would be better off without him. I don't know, I still love him. I know you do. But sometimes love isn't good enough to stay in a relationship that draining you. You need to learn to put us first and not others. I just don't know yet. It's fine if you don't know yet. One step at a time,remember. Yeah, one step at a time. Just one step. Just one, Eve. I got to Cami’s home and parked on the curb. That way, if I need to run out and leave. I can be fast. I saw a car in the driveway.”She was home, great”. I took a deep breath in and let it out very slowly. Okay let go. We will never know if we don’t get out and ask. I turned off the car and walked my way to her door. I play with my keys with my hands. Feeling more anxious than I have ever been. I don't whats going to happen once she opens the door. They slip out of my sweaty hands. F*** Eve! Just breath Eve, Just breath! “Left foot, Right foot. Left foot, Right foot.” In a low voice I told myself to walk up the little stairs. The last thing I need is to trip and fall. Ohh how great would that be. Just an excuse to leave. WILL NO MORE! Let's get the truth from this b****! Just relax brain d***! Just try to be calm or shut up. I’m not gonna be able to do this if all you are gonna do is be rude and pushy. So SSSHH! Fine, sorry I’ll try to be nice. I faced her non-chip perfectly painted red door.”Well, here it goes. My life might change forever after this,” I told myself. You got this Eve. Remember how brave and carefree you used to be. You used to be so outgoing and lovable person. You usually never say no. You were Fearless Eve. That is what everyone used to call you, remember. You never took no s*** from no one. But then Mark came into my life and changed everything. I was happy and now, I don't know. Everything has been different since Mark. And now everything is about to change again. *knock knock* “Breath Breath Breath” inhaling in and out to relax my body. I just needed to calm down all my nerves so I don't f*** this up. My only goal was to find out the truth and see how stuff goes from there. "Don't over think this Eve. Don't" *Door unlocks and opens* “Hi, can I help you?” Cami, speaking in a very low hush voice.“Umm yes I don’t think you remember me from the other day, but..” slowing letting the words come out. Trying not to stutter them and acting like an i***t again. She cuts me off from my response.“Ohh yes, I remember you. The girl who was screaming at herself.” She let a small smile out.“Umm yeah that was me.” Rubbing the back of my head with a nervous laugh. Yeah, us the weirdo.“Well, did you want to come in and talk?” Stepping to the side as she opens up her door a little more to show a very gently host voice. How can this woman be so nice and let a stranger confess her problems to her? Yet she was about to know that this stranger was only here to confront her for sleeping with her husband. F***! “Umm yes, thank you.” Letting out another little laugh.Left foot, Right foot. *Door closed and locked behind me* Wow, it's beautiful in here, very modern look.“Wow, what a lovely home you have.” As that, a normal response anyone can say, whenever they first enter a home.“Ohh thank you, I just moved in last year.” Walking by me with a smile. She waved her hand to gesture to me to follow her to another room.“Would you like something to drink, I have some red wine left over from last night's dinner.” Her voice echos from her kitchen. “Umm yeah, that be just fine, thanks you.” As I turn my head in every direction to inspect the whole kitchen.Wow it just beautiful and so shiny. I bet she is hardly even home. I wonder what she does for a living. No way it stays this clean and she home very often. She hands me a glass of red vine and walks to another room connected with it. “Come to my sunroom, it’s nice and cool there.” Having a very huge smile on her face. I didn’t expect her to be so nice, I don't know what I really expect at all. The other day, I came and I swore I was gonna deal with someone the complete opposite. There’s no way she knew Mark was married, He had to be hiding it from her. “Wow, your house is just gorgeous. And so clean.” Sounding a bit stunned in my voice as I looked at the hardwood floor. “Ohh thank you so much.” Taking a sip from her wine and changing the channel on the large TV she had hanging on the wall.Gezz I always wanted to have TV mounted on the wall but Mark never got to it. And when i try doing it myself, he gets upset. Telling me it’s a man's job to hang it up. If he was a real man, then he wouldn’t be putting you in this situation then. I take a sip of my glass before I ask my question. Nervous at her response.“Do you live here alone, Cami?”“No, I live with my fiancé.” Still scrolling through the TV as she took another sips of her glass here and there.Fiancé!!! Ohh I better hope he did not. I’ll kill him!! I thought this might just be a one-time thing. Hoping that this won’t happen for long! Not unless I get to him first! Dumba** we are the same person. When I get to him, YOU get to him. Rolling my eyes inside my head at my brain's stupid comment as always. Like I was trying to say. I didn’t think this was a serious relationship with Mark. If their really engage, then he has been cheating on me for god knows how long.I don’t know if I should be angry or sad, but some kind of other feeling takes over my inside. It heats my skin like boiling lava. “Fiancé, ohh wow. Umm congrats.” Trying to hide all my inter feelings inside.“Ohh yes he proposed to me about a month ago. Right before the mis mis mis-have.”Stuttering at the end of her sentences with a little sad look on her face.What happen? Maybe he cheated on that dumb cow too. And her stupid a** probably took him back like the dumb cow she is. *growling* Hey!! Be nice. You don’t even know her to be so d*** rude. What ever has happen it’s something serious for her to be so sad. Like come on look at her face when she tries to hide it. At that moment she drank the last big bit of her wine and got up fast to pour herself another drink. This had to be something big.It had to be something serious. I women wouldn’t he this upset over nothing. It’s not like a (I caught my fiancé cheating on me) sadness. It is something more than that. I can feel her holding it back, she trying not to cry. She returns to the couch, we been seating on, in her beautiful wooden floor sunroom. I decided to embrace her with a hug as I put my glass down on the table. What in the f***ing h*** are you doing? Don’t hug that cow. She not only sleeping with our husband but is planning on marring him too. SSHH she needs this. After this, she might be more willing to tell me the truth about the affair. “I am sorry for whatever it is. You seem like a very strong person. Its okay to cry if you want to.” She jumped a little at my embrace, as she didn’t hug me back at first. But right after I spoke. I felt her placing her hands, then her arms around me. Getting tighter and tighter. Then I felt her head lean on my shoulder, nuzzling into my neck. I felt my shoulder getting a little wet. Not a lot, but I can tell she let out a few tears from my warm gentle hug. She needed this, just needed to let it out. Maybe that is why she was so nice to me. “Thank you, that meant a lot. Even though you don’t know me well. I feel like I can trust you. You know.” She let go of our embrace and wiped the tears from her eyes as she let out a smile. See, I told you, all she needed was a hug.I can feel the rage inside slowing down. Like if my brain was a real person, it would be rolling its eyes and crossing its arms right now.I smiled back at her to let her get herself back together. And I picked up my glass to take another sip. "You didn't have to do that?" She said with light puffy eyes. "I can tell you just needed a hug. Honesty, I needed it too. We all do. Smiling back at her. F*** I might just like her, god d*** it.“So my mishave was when I had my miscarriage…” as she fidgeted with her fingers. MISCARRIAGE! A MISCARRIAGE.
