I walked into the house, it being quiet and clean. Cleaned like nobody has been here in a while. The air in the house was crisp, everything was assorted nicely.

Like it was forbidden to touch.

I didn't even need to go into the kitchen to know there was nothing in there waiting for me. I sighed the moment I took my heels off.

I really wish things were different, went my way. I wish I'd never put that ring on that finger. Wish I never met her.

But instead, wish I met Beyoncé before. Wish I put that ring on her finger instead. I would be coming home to cooked meals. I would be coming home to hear the laugher of her and my kids, even have them waiting on the couch for me.

Pure love.

But, that's just a fairytale. This is real life.
You can't have something so perfect.
But close to it, and thats why I have to make this work.

But, I just feel it in my bones she's going to leave me alone. She suddenly has a wandering eye.
The worst kind of eye.

The eye I might just poke out if she thinks about it. I literally watched her and that girl in the grocery store, exchanging numbers.

I won't be convinced that it was friendly.

I went into the bathroom and ran a warm shower. I took that time to decompress all the stress through the day. I looked at myself in the mirror, dragging my hands down my face.

"I actually look real good, stressed and all." I joked to myself before washing my face. After that, I ran the shower water while I grabbed my necessities.

I grabbed my facial wash and stripped my face free of makeup. I placed my hair into a high bun and went into the shower.

The moment the warm water touched my skin, it hurt a little. That told me my muscles were completely tense. Hopefully this shower relaxed them.

I started to see memories of me and her.
Our conversations.
Our laughter.
Intimacy.

But she most likely ruined that all for me.

I spent 10 more minutes in the shower before I decided to cut the water off. I got out the shower, wrapping the towel around my body and walked into my room. I saw her on the bed, on her phone.

I got a glimpse and shook my head. But she won't sign the divorce papers? I went over to the dresser to pull out something comfortable and threw it on the bed.
