WHAT LOVE WILL DO 2

Chapter 13

Maliyah

I don't know if I'm really feeling this marriage anymore with Avery.

He's always out and never really talks to me. To be completely real he makes our relationship look like it's all perfect in front of our children, but behind closed doors he's just there, not mentally either.

Maybe we should talk about it sometime. Imma try to see if he has time so that we can go out to dinner.

Guys I'm not dumb, of course I'd be mad if my husband cheated on me, but what if it's something that I did.

There's no reason to cheat but sometimes shit just drives people to do shit you know ?

It's something in my heart telling me he's keeping stuff from me so maybe if I come at him in a gentle approach he'd just open up.

The kids weren't here, both of them were at they friends house so I guess we didn't have to go out, but all in all I think we should go out.

Knocking me out my thoughts I heard keys jiggle.

It was him.

I got up kinda excited to see him.

"Hey baby" I hugged him.

He didn't look like himself.

"Baby what's going on ?" I asked concerned.

Of course I'm still in love with this man and I want our marriage to work but I gotta see what the problem is so that we can fix it.

He had tears in his eyes.

"Can we talk baby ? Please don't hate me" he broke down.

"Come here" I told him as I sat on the couch.

He took his clothes off down to just his boxers and laid in between my legs and laid on my chest.

Ever since we got together that's his exact position he'd lay on me in.

"I cheated- please don't hate me please" he begged and looked up at me with a tear falling down his face.

You can see all the pain in his eyes. I wanted to know the reason why he cheated on me.

Best believe I was beyond angry at him and wanted to kill his ass but it's always a reason for something. So I'd like to hear it.

"Why did you ?" I asked.

"I just feel alone. We don't have sex anymore , we don't bond, we just act like a boring old couple" he laid his head down on one of my breast.

"But you could've told me that? What's going on, tell me everything" I asked.

"I lost my stepdad Liyah. When I tried to tell you, you didn't even care. I lost him about a week ago. His funeral is this Saturday. He died in a car accident, a 18-wheeler crashed into him and made him hit a concrete wall." He cried as he explained it.

My heart sank.

"I needed you Maliyah. But that don't justify what I did. I was wrong mane. If you gone divorce me I deserve it. I want you and my family back. I'm sorry for what I did" he cried shaking his head.

"We were both wrong in the situation. I should've listened to my husband when he needed me and you should've never cheated, but I see why you did that though, so I'm not that mad baby. It's ok Imma be here for you" I rubbed my fingers through his waves.

His eyes lit up like he needed to hear those words in order for him to make it through.

"But you still sleeping on the couch" I said.

His almost smile turned into a straight face.

"Lose the attitude, and also you can have it one last time before our break. So go ahead." I said.

"No baby as much as I want it...I don't want it. I just want you to hold me and let me know you gone be here for me. That's all a  nigga need right now." He said looking at me in my eyes.

I nodded

He tried to kiss me.

"Unt uhh I don't know where that shit been so keep them lips away from me until you brush them" I made a stank face.

"I hate when you make that face" he made one back.

"Well I hate when you keep shit from me so we even" I smiled big.

He mugged me.

"You know my situation though" He said.

"Of course I do. That's why I ain't kill you. So you better be lucky you still got your life instead of complaining" I said.

I felt his fingers slip inside of me

I moaned "Fuck I thought you said no sex"

"I lied" He went dont and ate me aggressively then made love to me in a way that I never expected.

We both cried and it was so passionate, but he still sleeping on the couch until we get back to how we was.

Oh and Imma find out who he cheated on me with too.

After we had our little sexual activities, I gave him some covers and a pillow.

"Goodnight nigga" I said with a fake attitude.

"Goodnight bitch" He said with a fake attitude.

We joke like that so don't do too much.

"Nah fr tho Goodnight" I said

"Goodnight beautiful" He said walking down the stairs with the comforter in one hand and 2 pillows in the other.

"Sexy ass" I heard him say and blushed.

He still not off the hook.
