Once (#Wattys2015)

Once

The same thing is happening again and again: I waiting for my husband at the table where his dinner that I know he loves the most is lying cold, he coming through the front door with my sister beside him,his arms securely holding her,them laughing and smiling at whatever both are saying , then him seeing me or I would say noticing me and giving me a look of blankness and a little disgust and then both of them going into his bedroom.

Sadly two months ago that used to be mine and Aaron's. Yes my husband Aaron is having an affair with my twin for two months and he is exclusive about it. Yes that's right he is having affair or I quote his saying; he loves my twin Melinda. Though we both look same but she is preferred by everyone rather than me even my parents.And I think that gave her the boost to look pretty in whatever she is.

Sighing and not bothering to wipe the tears that were flowing silently through my eyes, I went to the dining table and started cleaning the table. I put the food that I cooked for him in the fridge and the plates in the sink though they were not dirty. At the moment my stomach grumbled reminding me that I hadn't eaten anything since the small snack I had in the afternoon. But how can I eat alone after eating with him constantly for one and a half year. I may have eaten alone in the past but once I started dating him and then married him,he was there every time even I thought of eating. But now everything changed.

I was going to my room passing his room when I heard Melinda saying," when are you going to get your marriage annulled? "

Then I heard him chuckling and saying," Why baby, eager to be here in my arms forever?"

"Yes that's one reason and secondly I dont like her doing things for you that should be done by me."

"Yeah baby, I don't like that too. But don't worry baby I would divorce her soon. I can't even remember what I saw in her-"

I didn't wait to listen anything else because I know that would hurt even more. I went to my room, changed my self into something comfortable and went to sleep remembering the time he first revealed this to me.

I was waiting for him as usual for the dinner just to notice that he was late again. Today we both planned to go this restaurant for having dinner. He told me to be here as he will come directly from his office. The waitress asked again if I was ready for ordering but I told that I am feeling well and left.

I reached home and decided to call him. But that wasn't necessary because the moment I entered through the door I saw him there with my twin both having dinner. My twin came to see me and at the moment staying with us.
