ACT XIV : withholding information, also known as lying

The night-sky looked beautiful reflecting against the double glazing windows as Onika sat crossed legs on her bed, the open photo album of her wedding day in front of her. The brunette couldn't help but shed a few tears. They looked so young, so happy, so in love. The day of her wedding will always be the best day of her life, after the birth of her babies. When everything was okay.

Everything is still okay.

Onika sighs lowly as she heard the internal voice within, since she and Beyoncé have been seeing Angela again with all this, the brunette has slowly started to speak to Beyoncé again, the urge to drown the woman every time Onika saw her was becoming less and less but that doesn't mean all was rainbows and unicorns.

Heck no. Onika still found herself struggling with the broken trust Beyoncé had brought in their marriage. She still let the blonde sleep in separate room than her. The brunette still felt within herself something was amiss each time she looked in Beyoncé's eyes. Or maybe it was just the regret of her betrayal and Onika was just reading too much into it.

However, even during therapy, Onika felt the air wasn't clear. She knows Beyoncé- actually does she? Because let's face it, she didn't know Beyoncé had been bearing this secret from her for years, so really, Onika had to reconsider, she did not know Beyoncé, not like she thought anyways so yeah, she had this irking feeling that the air was still gloomy with them.

She has no idea what Beyoncé tells Angela once she steps out the room but the therapist said to take it slow, peel layers one by one like an onion and not just rip it off like a bandage. So Onika held back, working firstly on herself, to overcome this betray first and find it within her to forgive Beyoncé.

She sniffles suddenly looking down at a picture of a smiling Beyoncé with herself in each other's arms, she was caught up in reminiscing about the the past when the doors to her bedroom slightly opened drawing her attention away thinking it was one of the kids, with their birthday nearing, the twins have been none stop bursting with excitement at the thought of finally turning 5 years old.

But when her head snapped up, she found Beyoncé, timidly standing by the slightly a jar door. Her eyes, as it always been looked at Onika pleadingly with remorse and apologetically. The brunette felt her heart break, the love she felt for this woman greater than the hurt she had cause her but still, pain is pain.

"Seems like a lifetime" Onika spoke, her voice low and croaky. She hasn't even been crying for long but crying every night before sleep would do that to a person she guess.

Beyoncé took that as an invite stepping into the room and closing the door behind her softly and walking to sit on the edge of the bed.

How weird was it that she celebrated in the feeling of being able to feel her bed again? It has been so long since she had so much as stepped a foot here let along slept in this bed. Her wife made sure she had just enough clothes tucked into the spare room she slept so to not set foot here.

Sagittarius don't play when you fuck them over that's for sure.

"Well Ivy is 15 now, soon 16. That's a whole decade and some." Beyoncé responded and all Onika could do was nod.
