Open My Eyes

Chapter 3 Changes

  I don't know what I'm doing but I know she has something I haven't felt in a long time peace she's so nice and beautiful I feel like I can talk to her about anything I sigh wishing my wife was that way.

  I asked her to lunch not knowing what I was going to talk about but I had to make up an excuse then she asked me when I last eat with someone I told her the truth a long time ever since my wife became distant and my family stopped inviting me over to gatherings because of her I ate alone.

  I brought her to my favourite place because I feel she will enjoy it so when she said nice choice I was flattered my wife never lets me pick anything.

We are seated and I say" What would you like".

She looks and says" I'll let you order for me surprises are my favourite".

I nod taking note of what I don't know but she's so beautiful.

I say" So tell me more about you ".

She smiles lighting up the room even more then looks at her hand with a longing look I wonder what's that about.

She looks at me just then a guy walks up and says" Wow just had to outsmart me again where was he when we were together had you been with him this whole time".

  She gasps and I see her try to be strong she then says" Please leave you did enough already besides this is my client I'm not outsmarting you as you say".

  The guy turns red and says" Amelia stop playing with me and turn that smartness of yours off we went through this already besides where's your ring took it off that fast".

I look back and forth between the two and I see Amelia distressed.

  She says" Leave now and the ring you can have back yes I took it off because we are no longer engaged because of who you are".

  The guy glares at me and says "Trust me the moment she starts trying to outsmart you in everything you'll be done with her she's such a snob".

I see Amelia begin to cry and I don't know what to do but she shouldn't be crying.

  I say" Maybe you should leave".

  The guy scoffs and smirks at Amelia causing her to wipe her face and glare.

  Amelia says" Your things will be on my porch as soon as I get back instead of tomorrow and for your info asshole I will find someone who thinks my smartness is a part of my beauty".

The guy glares walking off back to some table with a few guys he's so mean to her why did he do that?

Amelia looks so lost she says" Hey uhm maybe I'm not the best person to be commenting on your marriage when I couldn't even get past my engagement".

I glare at her she's putting my herself down how he told her I hope this isn't what she was doing in their relationship, it was days I wished my wife would be smart and want to keep me on my game and toes.

  I say "Nonsense just because you're smart doesn't make you anything he said besides I find it cute that you're smart no one should put their partner down for not being able to keep up".

I see her take a much-needed breath looking much calmer than a minute ago.

The waiter takes our order and when it comes she looks surprised.

She says" I'm so embarrassed right now you have no idea".

I say" Don't be I'm sure my wife has done worse and we made it to marriage".
