Present day...

Cailey's POV

After getting out of his study room that day I run towards my room and closed the door. I called Mindy to tell her everything so I was now here in her house. 

''Okay, okay! Don't make the story short! I want it detailed! Okay?'' she seemed so excited to know what happened which somehow made me roll my eyes and chuckle. Well I can chuckle now, though I did really cried in front of her before deciding to tell her the whole damn story.

After I told her the whole story she then hugged me tightly and rubbed my back! Saying that I did the right thing and comforted me. I was glad that I have her. She somehow lessen my sad days. She kept me accompany for almost a week. I didn't get the chance to pack my things when that night happened. I came here without thinking after I called Mindy, and she doesn't mind though. She said she was even happy that they stayed in same house and same bed, they get to have sister like night or a sleep over. Which she found pretty funny, knowing that they weren't kids anymore and that she now has a husband, well, ex-husband, was it.

She admits that it wasn't easy for her, it just made it a bit okay because Mindy was there beside her. She can't call her dad and her family for this matter, for the mean time. She wants to tell them personally, but before that, she wanted to fix herself first.

There was news about the incident that happened in the restaurant, but soon enough was nowhere to be found. He moves quicker than I thought. Well, they should be happy now. They are now free to do whatever the fuck they wanted. While I am here, trying to get the broken pieces out of me. I sighed.

I was preparing food when I heard Mindy yelled that she was going to buy something and will be back before meal is ready, I yelled back to say okay and I'll wait for her. After preparing the rice, I faced the pan and stirring some oil on it. Immersed from cooking, I heard a knock.

''Mindy? Did you forget something?'' I shouted as I wiped my hands and went to see her. Why was she knocking anyway? It's her house, and she can easily walk in if she wanted, I thought as I open the door.

When I saw who it was, I regretted ever opening the door.

''What are you doing here?''I tried not to sound weak.

He just stood there, staring at me, with those eyes. He looked messed, his hair wasn't tidy. Though his shirt were okay, his pose were somehow a bit off.

Finally he speak '' Let's talk..'' 

I wanted to laugh, seriously. It's been week, before he wants to talk. He didn't even stopped me that night. And now he's here. How absurd! 

''Please say what you want to say here and you can go, I'm busy'' I said as if I'm really annoyed.

''Watch your tone! I'm your husband!'' he yelled. I was shocked. As to him shouting and as to why he said he's my husband.

I let out a chuckle, a mockery to be precised.

 ''You? My husband? No. I don't thinks so. To correct that, you are my ex-husband'' I replied. Staring at him in his eyes.

He shut his eyes, and runs his fingers on his hair. As if he was on the verge of exploding.

''Please leave, the neighbors are sensitive with noise'' I said as I gestured him to walk away and was going to close the door when he stopped it using his body.

''Go back with me!'' he said, no, more like he ordered!

''Are you dumb? You forced me to sign that paper and now you're telling to go back with you? Are you nuts?'' I can't help it anymore.I tried to push him out, but to my disappointments, I can't make him.

''Get out of here Russell, I am so done with you! Please leave me alone!'' I said to him trying to sound calm, I know he's drunk. And arguing with him won't take us any good. 

I pushed him out and finally, I was successful. I closed the door not even thinking twice. I made my decision and I am not planning to go back. Now, I really need to take my stuff out of his house. I'll have it by this week and then finally, I can start over my life. Where it should be.

I told Mindy about what happened, like me she was also confused on to why Russel acted that way, either way, I don't give a damn anymore. So I told Mindy that I will take my stuff out of his house this week, at first she didn't want me to, she's worried that Russell might do something on me, but I assured her not to worry. That I will be fine and Russell can't do anything to me. 

After some days, I finally decided to take my stuff, now that I have my free day, I worked at a company where Mindy was working too. It was my first to work for a company as I have always been in the house and wasn't allowed to work as Russell ordered it. But now that there were no longer a Russell who would deprive me from doing things, I felt the freedom I have always wanted to feel again.

Now, it was my day off. And I am now heading to his house to take my stuff. I rang the door bell and soon enough, the gate was opened by Sally, the house care. She smiled at me, and greeted me. All of the maids in this house was good to me, all of them except for Russell, and I can't help but to thank them for being with me in this lonely house for almost three years!

I went straight to my old room and found out that my room was well tidied. I was confused, and then thought that the maids might be doing it for they have liked me. So I didn't think of anything else, I closed the door and went to my closet. I packed my things up and then I took all my wash up things, I opened my drawers and the jewelries were there.

I smiled bitterly, I remember how he will send some men to accompany me to go malls, when he was so attentive to whatever things to give to Rylee. How he would buy it himself and personally give it to Rylee. My heart filled with bitterness and jealousy back then.

But now all she felt was hatred and disgust!

She didn't took any jewelries and just left it there. She also didn't take all the dresses that were from Russell. After that, she then seated in her bed that she had missed. It was the only place where she find comfort, at least, for the last three years, aside from Mindy.

Suddenly, she heard a quick steps from behind the doors and soon enough it flung open, seeing that it was Russell who was at the door, she immediately get up and took her luggage. She walked past him but he grabbed her by the arms, so she had to stop.

''No, you can't leave. You can't leave, Again!'' he sound nervous, but more like angry!

I stopped from my tracks after hearing that. Is he ordering me? Again? I turned to face him and took his hand away from me. ''Don't forget that I already signed the divorce paper. We have nothing to do with each other anymore! So watch your action!''

But he only glared at me. If it's like before, I was already scared and act like a pup, but today wasn't the same. And she had to admit that it felt good. 

''Thank you for forcing me that divorce Russell, I finally get to live and have my freedom. Wish me luck!'' i said to him, smirking, and left him dumbfounded.
