Olivia
"Ow!" Darnell shouts as I slap him as hard a I can while running towards our back door towards the pool.
"Liv wait! Olivia baby please let me explain!" Darnell follows me as tears run down my face and all I wanna do is run far far away and never look back. I stare out in the distance as I see my reflection in our pool and try to calm myself down.
"...seven years down the drain.." I whisper but I know Darnell hears it as he walks up behind me and I smell his cologne so I know he's directly behind me now.
"Don't say that baby...I made a mistake and I promise it was just a weak moment that'll never happen again! I swear!" He argues and I finally turn to him like he's crazy and I almost laugh in his face.
"A mistake? Cheating is a choice Darnell! That means you had every opportunity to not cheat but you choice to anyway!" I shout walking back into our massive house with six bedrooms and four baths fit for a family that I thought we would have by now. Only two years of marriage and this what I got instead. A cheater. And a liar.
"Liv! You know me! You know I wouldn't just do this to hurt you I was I was having a hard time and.." he started to explain and I ignore him and I walk upstairs.
"I thought I knew you! And our three years of being friends and our two years of dating and now married for two years you're like a stranger to me!" I confess and I finally get to our room and pull out a suitcase going through my closet.
"Baby please please let me explain! You know I've been having a hard time since my dad passed and.." he starts and I finally let out a laugh.
"Don't even start that bullshit Darnell! Your dad passed away a year ago and yes it's sad that's no excuse to cheat on your fucking wife! The wife that was there consoling every night when he passed and the one who spoon fed you when you couldn't eat because you were to depressed to get out of bed the one that begged your firm to give you two month pto when they were about to fire your ass! And this is how you repay me?" I pause as I go to my dresser to find more clothes.
Darnell nods understanding as he walks up to me. "Yes a year has passed but I still miss my dad like crazy Olivia! You don't know what it's like. My dad was Amy best friend! And I lost that and I haven't been the same since he's been gone!" He expresses and I turn to him with my hand on my hip.
"So you fucking your assistant was a way to cope with your dad dying? How dumb do you think I am D? You need fucking help!" I say walking away going to our bathroom getting extra stuff. "Your dad dies and instead of going to therapy like I suggested you go fuck whoever to make you feel better? I really hope that was the best fuck of your life because I know your dad is looking down at you disappointed!" I finish knowing it would hurt him knowing it would wreck him for a while. I go back to my suitcase and put more things into it. And I didn't care how much my words hurt him either I wanted him to hurt as much as I do right now.
"...I can't believe you would say that" he says and I ignore him some more finally being done with packing heading back downstairs and of course he follows me again. "Just because you cut off your parents and you don't know what it's like to lose them doesn't mean you get to be a bitch about mines!" He says and I swing around and give him a death glare. And he knew bringing up my parents would hurt me and that's how know I needed to leave. I turn back around continuing to walk toward the front door as he sighs. "Wait wait liv I didn't mean it wait!" He try's go grab my arm and I yank it away.
I grab my keys to my Range Rover truck and put my suitcase in the back seat as fast as I can not looking back once. When I finally get in the truck and start it Darnell stands there yelling something and I speed away into the dead of night.
