Sean POV:
Things had been pretty tough ever since Selena learnt about Chloe, she didn’t know the whole truth and yet it was killing him and her. Their sham marriage to begin with was hitting the rocks and he didn’t love the way it was headed.
He had to do something, but what was he supposed to do at the moment like this?
Sean called his friend Victor, even though they weren’t that close, he was much better than the other people who called themselves his friends. Victor agreed to meet him so Sean drove to the designated club that Victor was currently at.
When he arrived Victor welcomed him with so much happiness. He was overwhelmed and he felt ay peace.
“ Welcome my good friend, seeing how depressed you look, it must be true that something awful happened, “ Victor said as Sean sat down.
“ Did Vivian say that? “
“ Yes, you know she and your wife are pretty tight. She can’t stop talking about her. You didn’t cheat on her did you? “ Victor asked as he poured him a glass of scotch.
“ of course I didn’t, it’s just about my past, and it’s crazy, “ Sean answered.
“ There is one way to deal with the past my friend, you just have to face it and overcome it. The past belongs to the past, and we should always move on, “ Victor said before sipping his glass.
Sean listened to Victor and found his words very meaningful.
“ Thanks for saying that, I guess it’s time that I will face it, “ Sean said as he gulped down his scotch.
“ It is not a secret that you used to have that woman you loved so dearly, but she betrayed you and left you. We have known each other for long and I can see the difference between the old you and the current you.
I don’t know for what reasons that you married that child but anyone will be a fool to not realize that she makes you happy and humane. So, as your dear friend I will advised you look deep into your heart.
If you have an ounce of feeling for that tittle wife of yours, please just be honest with her, and end things once and for all with that ex of yours. We don’t want things to get out of control anymore, think about how that little wife of yours might be feeling right now, “ Victor threw another bomb at him.
Sean sat there and let the whole things sank in her mind. He looked deeper into himself and everything started to sink in. He abruptly stood up and Victor looked at him surprised by the sudden move.
“ Thanks, but I have to go now, “ Sean said and ran out of the club.
He had to go and the sooner the better. He got into the car and told Richard to drive him to Selena’s University. When he arrives he tried to call her but she wasn’t picking up any of his calls so he tried to call Vivian and she answered right away.
“ What do you want? “ she boldly asked him the question when she came to where he was.
“ Can you go inside and call your friend for me? “
“ I am not going to do that, after the way you treated her. Can’t you just let that poor girl go? “ she sounded angry and he understood her.
“ I need to talk talk things with her, and settle this matter, so don’t worry. I will not going to hurt her, I just want to apologize. So please help me out and I will do anything to repay you, “ he pleaded with her.
“ You said anything? “
“ Yes, when you think about it just tell me, but right now please go and bring your friend here, “ Sean said.
“ You know that we have classes right? “
“ Do they matter at this point? “
“ I guess, they don’t; okay I will make sure to bring her out so just wait here, “ Vivian said and rushed back inside.
Sean waited for twenty minutes before Selena showed up with Vivian. He was glad to see that she had agreed to come. He wanted to solve the issue as soon as possible and get things back to normal.
He winked at Vivian who simply smiled and he took his wife back home. They didn’t say a word on the road; she was just playing with her phone, something she had never done before.
The atmosphere was pretty tense and he was feeling nervous. He has never felt like this before but she made him feel these strange emotions that he never felt before.
When they reached home, he scooped his wife up and carried her straight into their bedroom. She kept on fighting him off but he wasn’t going to let go even for a second.
“ Leave me alone! “ she cried as he put her on the bed.
Sean leaned in closer and wiped those tears with his hands, he was feeling so sad to see her crying like this. To know that he was the cause of her suffering was the hardest things that he could not fathom.
“ Baby, I need you to listen to me very carefully. Just sit there and just listen. If you will judge me then do it after , but for now, I beg you to please listen to me, “ he pleaded with her and she looked at him with those teary eyes.
He didn’t know where to begin but he was just going to start from anywhere.
“ When I was in University, I meet this girl, she was the most beautiful and kindest person that I had ever seen. I fell for her at first sight and I pursued her. She rejected me many times but I never gave up until she finally agreed to be mine.
I was so excited and over the moon, I did everything for her. I came from a rich family so I was able to provide for her and give her a life that she wanted. I was in love that I was blinded and never saw what was happening.
It was only when I had finished all the wedding plans that she left me, and I learn all of the cruel things that she did. She was bought to be in my life. I was just another paycheck to her and it really broke my heart.
It is not an excuse for the way I have treated you but I want you to know about my history with Chloe. I have no love for that venom, I only have hated for her and I would hate it if she were to keep on destroying the things that I love, “ he said and found himself tearing up.
Just thinking about the time made him see everything clearly. If he could turn back the time; would he stop himself from falling for her again?
Selena cupped his cheek with her warm and small hand and he looked up at her. She was crying for him, she wasn’t supposed to be like that for a man who had hurt her like that.
