Comeback to me, Wife!

Chapter One: Mistress

Two weeks before..

Cailey Soren's POV

''Hello dad?'' I said as I answered the call.

I was having my breakfast when my dad called me. I answered it and continued eating. I was waiting for him to say anything but I only heard silence. So I spoke.

''Dad? what is it?'' 

Dad chuckles, he knows that she was a short tempered at times, especially when she's being disturbed while eating. ''Let's eat at your favorite place''

When she heard her dad say that, she smiled. Her father wasn't the type to invite her over a place. So she was happy and said yes right away. She stood up, and wiped her mouth. But before she can even went upstairs she saw her husband, Russell, making his way down. So she stopped and looked at him. He seems to go somewhere, which she find normal. He dislikes it so much to stay on place with her. She clenched.

''Where are you going Russell?'' I asked, in a low voice. 

He just looked at me, with pure disgust, and hatred. Which hurts me and I didn't asked for more. He went pass me and ignored me completely. I dragged my aching heart to my room. I tried not to let out a single tear. I will meet father, so I need to compose myself. I changed my clothes and went straight out of my not so homely house. .

.

When I arrived at the place, I saw my dad sitting on a table near the window glass. He aged so fast now, his wrinkles were now clear. 

I took a step and meet his eyes, I hugged him and went to my seat. He smiled at me and said to order. We ordered the food and while waiting I can't help but to notice his frequent sighing. So I asked him ''Dad? is there something wrong?'' I asked him out of concern.

''Will you listen to me, Sweetie?''

She don't know why but she felt a little nervous as to what her father wanted to say. But still, she nodded. So her father smiled, but it was not pure, it felt more like, sad.

''I want you to free yourself, Cailey'' he said, serious.

''Why dad? I'm okay. We're okay.'' I lied.

But he seemed not to believe me. He knows me too well, so he took my hand and placed it on his other hand, I saw tears rushing from his eyes. That adds more on my already broken heart. I looked at him, trying to find reason why he suddenly wanted me to free myself. Well, it was her, who made the decision. 

''You know why I agreed on letting you marry Russell, for he makes you happy, and you said you were in love with him, but I also know the truth..that he isn't treating you right, I want nothing but the best for you, sweetie. And Russell isn't..'' he said in a sad voice.

True enough, I was badly in love with Russell, so I convinced my dad to make Russell marry me. My dad and Russell's parents were friends and business partners. So my dad offered a merge, in exchange of the marriage. It was late when I found out that Russell, had girlfriend, Rylee, so he thought I broke them apart, which is somehow true.

''Dad, you know I can't even if I wanted to..'' I replied, looking at his eyes.

He again smiled and said ''If you're worrying for us, don't be. I'm sure we can make it out of our own. I just want to see you happy, before I die''

''Dad, don't say such things!'' he just chuckled and said that he will eventually die, so what's the fuss.

We ate after our order came. We talked about other things too, and I was happy, for even in just a short while, she felt happy and not worrying about anything else for the meantime.
