Prologue
"GOOD morning," I greeted the woman in the information desk.
"Good morning, ma'am," she greeted me back and smiled.
"Which floor is Dr. de Cervantes?" " I asked her politely and she frowned.
"5th floor po, ma'am. Who are you? "
If earlier she had a smile on her lips. Now she's frowning and looking like... angry? But why though?
"I'm Arthea Primero-Cervantes." I'm his wife," I answered while smiling and it seems that I'm still proud to tell her that I'm the wife of Dr. de Cervantes.
"I'm not joking with you," she said emotionlessly and I was the one who was so frowned upon.
Me either, I'm not joking around, Miss. "I just want to know where is the floor of my husband's office," I strongly complained and there was no emotion in my voice.
If she say she don't play with me do I look like I play with her too? It's not, huh? I just want to know which floor is my husband's office!
Ay It's on the 5th floor! She said.
I was about to leave the girl when she stopped me.
"Dr. Cervantes went out earlier, with his wife, miss," she said and really emphasized the word wife.
And because of what she said it felt like a needle stabbed to my chest. Did I hear it right? Or did I just hear something wrong?
Who? My husband is with his wife? Seriously? Eh, am I still here. Who is that wife again?
"W-Who?" I asked the lady, stuttering.
"Jillian de Cervantes," she even replied with a smile at me.
Huh? Jillian? If Jillian de Cervantes? Since when did de Cervantes change her surname? And what? J-Jillian? Jillian Ramirez?
Oh, yeah! Jillian, Jillian who was his first love. The first woman, my husband ever loved. Levin's first love.
I touched my chest to feel it pain even more. Out of my own I walked back and didn't notice my tears abundantly flowing from my eyes.
I was at the exit of the hospital when I saw my husband... and he's with that girl though.
"Thank you for the treat, babe," I heard Jillian say and I stopped walking.
"No problem, babe," my husband said, smiling.
He's really different when he's with Jillian. With this woman, Lervin is having fun.
They are walking in my direction and I think I'm nailed where I stand.
I started to walk and I did. But I lost my balance and I tripped. I can feel the pain in my chin and I definitely have a wound on this part.
Even funnier, I can't stand it. I can't even move my body
"Miss, are you okay? " asked the guy in front of me.
Do I look okay in this situation? That would have been my answer to that man. But even my voice I can't get it out.
Not the first time this has happened to me. I lose my balance most of the time and I'm at a loss of words.
Why could it be? Is there something wrong with me? A-am I not normal anymore?
"Stand up, you i***t. "My deliberate tears suddenly fell when I heard her cold voice.
My husband...
