When She's Gone

chapter 2

I heard the sounds of a car. I think Raizen is now home. Maybe he really enjoyed his night with his mistress, so he forgot to go home to his own house

"Where are you last night?" I asked when he entered the kitchen. He gave me a deadpan look before he got a bottle of water from the fridge

I followed him and asked him again with the same question. I just wanted to know if he will tell me the truth

"Seriously! I am f*****g tired. Don't make me irritate at this so f*****g early" he said after drinking a water from the bottle he got from the fridge

tired from what? tired from f*****g Selina for whole night? that's what I wanted to say but I just can't blurt it

"I am asking you, where are you last night?" I repeatedly questioned

Raizen gave me a very cold look

"DAMN YOU! YOU'RE JUST MY WIFE ON PAPER. YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHTS TO NAG ME NOR ASK ME WHERE IS MY WHEREBOUTS. YOU ARE JUST A USELESS w***e TO ME!!" he angrily shouted and then he started throwing those kitchen utensils. I squeaked when he freaking threw one plate right at my direction

I tried to avoid the flying plate coming to me but it was too late, it went to my face. I froze for how many seconds and then, I was back to my senses when I felt a warm liquid from my forehead. I steal a glance at Raizen and he is now gulping and there is a guilt written over his face

I thought he would say sorry but instead he walked out. I touched my forehead and I am not stupid enough not to know that my forehead is now bleeding

I went to my room to clean my wound. Right after that, I went back to the kitchen to clean up the mess. Raizen has been hurting me emotionally and now, he is capable of hurting me physically. Should I give up on him already?

But I am still hoping that maybe someday, he will forgive me.

"Oh Kinsley my dear, you do have such excellent hands. You cooked so well" I smiled when Aunt Lianne praised me, but I lost my smile when I saw Raizen' s face. He hated it when his family was praising me

We're currently here in Aunt Lianne and Uncle Roger's house. They invited us to have breakfast with them

"Thanks for the praise mom" when I said it, I directly looked at Raizen and he was mockingly smiled at me

"Do I have to remind you that she's not your mother" I was taken aback because of what he said. Aunt Lianne and Uncle Roger had the same reaction like mine

"Son, she's your wife. We're now her mom and dad. You have to accept it" Aunt Lianne firmly said but Raizen just ignored his mom

He stopped eating and he put his cold gaze at me

"She's just my wife on paper. I don't like her in fact I loathe her so much" pain struck my chest again. His words, always makes me realise that I am just nothing...

"Son it's been two years. Just move on and learn to love her. You both have some good memories as friends before right? Why can't you make new memories again as wife and husband" after Aunt Lianne deeply uttered those, we heard a loud smash on the table. It was Raizen's grip

"You two forced me to marry her. LOVE? OH IN HER DREAMS! SELINA IS THE ONLY WOMAN WHOM I CAN LOVE FOR ETERNITY. SELINA IS MY LOVE AND EVERYTHING!!" and the Raizen stormed out madly

I gulped. I wanted to punch my chest because it is hurting again, but I've decided not to. I am in front of Raizen's parents, I should not let them saw how vulnerable I am

"I'm sorry for that Kinsley" Aunt Lianne's apologised. I just smiled at her reassuring her that I am fine..

yes, I am okay

but the real is, I am not.
