Miss My Husband ✅

Chapter 16

I don't know how I got to our house safely. All I know is that I hurt him again. I cried the whole trip, and even though my vision was blurry, I still tried to get home safely.

"Jennie." Mamita greeted me when I entered the house. I tried to look good even though it was obvious that I had just recovered from crying. Mamita's face was full of sadness and worry.

"He's upstairs, talk to him." I wasn't surprised when he said that.

"Come on Jennie, talk to each other. I know there's a problem with you again. he came here and liam's mixture is not good." I just tried to smile at Mamita and went upstairs.

I took a deep breath before entering his room. I slowly opened the door and I didn't hear any noise. I found broken bottles on the side, and wine glasses. I looked at him who is now sleeping peacefully. he has no top on but is still wearing pants. I don't know what happened to his room but I can only say one thing, he's miserable. Broken vases, scattered wine glasses, and picture frames, all in disarray. I slowly approached him and sat on the edge of the bed. I removed some strands of hair blocking his face. I touch his face, his gentle face. I stared at him for a moment. I didn't go home right away, I spent some time before going home. I want to talk to him but I know he hates me. I want to clear everything. I know he has a right to know everything.

I left his room again and went to the guest room to change my clothes. I also got some cleaner to clean his room, I don't want him to wake up like that. He was still fast asleep when I entered his room, probably because of the alcohol he drank. I fixed the picture frames that fell over. I didn't know how I would react when I saw the pictures scattered on the floor. It's our wedding picture, there are also pictures of us from college and certain events. He didn't remove it. I put the pictures in a new frame and displayed them properly on the table. I cleaned his entire room which used to be our room. I also turned on the air conditioner that he didn't turn on. When I finished cleaning his room. I approached him to touch him. I stared at him for a long time and it was as if I was memorizing his face. I smiled bitterly and turned around to leave his room, but I suddenly stopped when I heard his voice behind me.

"What are you doing here?" I felt nervous when I heard his voice. I couldn't face him because of the nervousness I felt and what he said to me earlier. I slowly faced even though I was still nervous.

"I-I just cleaned your room." I told him. He didn't answer when I said no and just stared at me.

"W-What, s-sorry if I disturbed your sleep." I bowed, because I couldn't meet his gaze.

"I-I'm going out, continue your sleep, okay." I turned my back on him and left his room. I immediately went straight to my room and leaned back after I closed the door and my breathing was fast. When I recovered, I breathed again

deep before coming out. I was shocked when I opened the door to see him standing in front of me.

"L-Liam." I managed to say his name but I stammered.

He suddenly grabbed my wrist and took me to his room. He closed the door and locked it. He let go of me and faced me.

"I thought you left." He said while looking at my eyes.

I just bowed and didn't answer what he said.

I was silent for a few minutes and I was surprised when he suddenly pulled me closer to him.

"Liam." I stammered while looking at him. I could smell the alcohol on his body and I felt like I was being poisoned.

"Why?" He asked huskily.

"W-Why?" I asked.

"Why are you still here? Why?" He asked.

"I-I.." I don't know what I am going to say. I was nervous and afraid that what I might say would hurt him and me again.

"Answer me, please." He said calmly. I was running out of breath because of the nervousness and rapid heartbeat.

"I-I cancel my resignation letter." That's all and I bowed down. He slowly loosened his grip on my arm.

He didn't speak so I looked at him. He just looked at me too and turned his back on me. He went straight to the bathroom and closed it. I sighed.

I left his room and went straight downstairs. I caught Mamita cooking. It was afternoon, and I forgot to eat. So I suddenly felt hungry when I smelled the marinated chicken he was cooking.

"O Jennie, eat here." I just smiled at Mamita and sat across the table. He prepared rice and pickled chicken in front of me. I immediately ate because I had been feeling hungry for a while. I heard footsteps so I looked at the person who owned it then. It was Liam.

"O hijo, go with Jennie and eat too." Mamita said and prepared another plate. I looked away when I looked at him, because he was staring at me. He sat in front of me. I focused my attention on the food but you can still feel him staring at me.

"M-Mamita I'm done." I said to Mamita and I stood up.

"You just sat down?"

"I'm full. Thank you for the food." I just brought a glass of water and went straight outside. I saw the big swimming pool so I went straight there. It's quite dark outside because it's getting late. If I don't leave there, maybe I can't stand him staring at me like that. I looked around, this place. The swimming pool which I designed, there was no such pool here when we moved so I thought of putting one. We have many memories here and we have done many wonders here. I sat on the edge of the pool and dipped my feet. The water is cold and it feels good. I remembered again when I saw him crying. The last time I saw him crying was because of me too. The night I left.

"Are you avoiding me?" I turned to the speaker. I was suddenly nervous again.

"I just want to give you space." I said. He moved to my side and also dipped his feet in the pool. I can smell the soap he used.

"What space."

"To think."

"Think of what."

"W-What you've said a while ago." He was suddenly quiet. He didn't move but he immediately spoke.

"It was true." I suddenly looked at him.

"What I've said are true." I looked at him and he stared back, those eyes beautiful eyes he has. I wasn't shocked when he suddenly kissed me and I answered without any hesitations.
