Punishment

"Are you sure you want to take me to your house, Doctor Chris? Is your wife not home?" I asked, still unsure of Doctor Chris's plan. But this man already looked so eager.
He took off all his clothes and was ready for a long battle tonight. Although I was still a little hesitant because this was our first time making love at his house, my body was already filled with intense arousal.
"Evelyn will be back tomorrow afternoon, so tonight we can have some fun!" He said, urging me to give him oral s*x.
We did it in his room, but I felt a little uneasy, the wedding photo of Doctor Chris and his wife was displayed right above their bed. It felt like I was being watched, her eyes seemingly fixed on me.
"Oh..." I sighed as Doctor Chris began to penetrate me. His lust was raging, he was a handsome young man, it was only natural for him to make love to a young and beautiful woman, not like his wife.
"Oh yes..." He continued to mumble, enjoying what we were doing. I held him tightly, our lips caressing each other.
It felt like everything was going smoothly, until the woman came in and opened the door to her room, only to see her husband having s*x with me on the bed they shared.
"Chris?"
"E-Evelyn, when did you—"
That woman stared at us with a look in her eyes that I will never forget for the rest of my life. Anger, disappointment, hatred, sadness, all rolled into one.
That night, I was in a deep silence. Not a single word came out of my mouth. I couldn't even say sorry. Doctor Chris immediately chased after his wife after asking me to remain calm.
That night, I made a woman cry, that night, I hurt a wife, and that night, I caused a mother-to-be deep suffering.
"Evelyn came home early on purpose to surprise me because she wanted to tell me she was pregnant with our child," Doctor Chris said. He sat on the bed, still with a towel wrapped around his hips. He looked frustrated that he hadn't had time to catch up with his wife, who had immediately sped off in the car.
I approached Doctor Chris, still wearing my naked body, which he loved so much. I sat facing him, right on his lap. I tried to comfort him with a kiss.
"Don't worry, if she leaves you, I'll still be there for you!"
"You promise to stay with me, Nina? I love you so much, Nina! I really do."
"I love you too, Doctor! Then divorce her so we can be together the way you want!"
I opened my eyes with a strange feeling after the dream returned as a nightly terror.
"That dream again?" I thought to myself. I lifted my head when I saw sunlight streaming in through the bedroom window.
Beside me, Simon was still fast asleep, naked. It had been a long time since we last slept in the same bed and had s*x. Last night, his attitude was completely different. He, who had become increasingly cold and indifferent to me over the past two years, had returned to the warmth he had in the early days of our marriage. I don't know what really happened to him with Erika, why did he go home and leave Erika in the hospital?
"Are you awake, honey?" He asked, apparently already awake.
"Yes, I have to get ready for work."
"Can't you just take a few days off? I need you."
"It's unusual for you to ask me for a few days off, and you don't even care if I'm home!"
"You know how busy I am? Who asked you to go back to work anyway? Are you short on money, so you took that job again?"
"I work to fill my time, I'm bored at home all day."
"Tch, but at least make time for your husband! If I cheat on you again because you're too busy with work, don't complain!"
"How is Erika?" I asked. Although it was hard for me to ask this question, I really wanted to know how she was doing.
Simon was silent for a moment, as if he were considering his answer. But whatever answer he gave, I couldn't help but feel better.
"He's still in the hospital for an anal wound!"
"Oh my gosh—"
"She forced me to have anal s*x. I guess she wasn't used to it and there wasn't any lubrication—"
"Now what? Why did you leave her and go home?" My chest tightened. Was this a normal conversation between husband and wife?
Simon approached me, still sitting on the edge of the bed. He grabbed my body from behind and hugged me tightly.
"I love you, Nina! I did that because you've been too reluctant to be touched since your miscarriage a year ago. I was lonely and couldn't fulfill my desires."
"That's because you blame me for not being able to take care of my unborn child!"
"You know I really want a child, right? It's natural that I'm so frustrated and so angry with you for not being able to properly care for your unborn child!"
"Do you know what your mother and siblings said when I was pregnant? They constantly showed me hatred, and you wouldn't defend me at all! You tolerated all their bad behavior toward me!"
"That's because they're my family, Nina!"
"So, what am I to you? Am I a stranger? Am I not a part of your life? Are their feelings more important than mine?"
My emotions were exploding, and to this day, I still can't forgive all the mean things they've said to me since we got married.
Simon sighed. I knew he wouldn't be able to say anything to show me that I was the most important person in his life.
I got out of bed and headed for the bathroom. But Simon immediately grabbed my hand and held me back.
"Where are you going?"
"I want to shower and get ready!"
"What about me?"
"You can see Erika, right?"
"Come on, Nina, let's not talk about that anymore!"
"If you want me to stop talking about it, break up with her now!"
"I'm not in a relationship with her, Nina! It was a mistake, and I—"
"A mistake made repeatedly isn't a mistake, it's a habit."
"Okay, if I break up with her, will that satisfy you?"
"I don't know. Like you said, maybe this is all my fault. It was my fault from the start. Just think of it as God punishing me, and I can't do anything but accept it."
