"You did great baby." Mike smiled pulling me into a strong hug. "Absolutely amazing." My husband added as the two of us walked towards my dressing room.
"Thank you." I flashed him a smile as I struggled unzipping my dress. That was the first time I've preformed since the accident and that was possibly the scariest thing. I feel like I did good but what does that matter? I want to know what everyone thought.
"Here baby let me help you." Mike stepped behind me slowly unzipping the zipper, placing a small kiss on my shoulder. "You look so beautiful." Mike added kissing my bare shoulder again.
"Mike. Not now." I sighed pulling away holding my dress together. It wasn't that I was annoyed or upset with Mike I'm just not in the mood. That, that performance scared me and my heart is still pounding from it. All I want to do is get in a hot bath and relax.
"Sorry." My husband apologized moving away from me sitting on the couch. He looked so upset I felt so bad. I wasn't trying to be mean at all but I really am not in the mood for any of that, my heart still feels like it is going to burst out of my chest.
"Mike-"
"I'm gonna go wait in the truck." He quickly cut me off standing up from the couch walking out of the room causing me to sigh. I feel horrible. I haven't seen Mike upset yet. Was he really that upset at me when I told him I was not in the mood? I don't get it.
I hurried and changed into a pair of dark colored skinny jeans, zipping up my black thigh highs I herd a knock on the door me mentally praying it was Mike.
"Oh hi." I sighed once I opened the door, my best friend smiling at me.
"Sorry to be such a disappointment." Ivey replied.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean it that way. Mike just walked out, he's upset with me." I explained pulling my black sweater over my head then picking up my purse.
"Why?" My best friend questioned as we walked out of the back doors of the Opry.
"I honestly don't know. I told him I wasn't in the mood, well I really said not now but... He just walked out." I sighed once I got to her car. "Are you still coming over?" I questioned causing her to shake her head.
"You talk to Mike. I'll come over tomorrow." I sighed nodding my head before giving her a hug before walking over to Mike's truck getting in.
He didn't say a word. He didn't even look at me. What on earth did I do or say to upset him? I don't understand. The whole ride home was silent. I was scared to ask what was wrong, in fear of him getting angry.
"Mike." I said almost in a whispered as I entered the bedroom I share with my husband. "Why are you so upset with me?" I questioned biting my lip nearly in tears now.
"Oh, sweetie. I'm not." Mike stood from the loveseat in the corner walking towards me. "I just found out some news today and then after you performed... I don't know. I am sorry you thought it was you." I let out a breath of relief as he pulled me into a tight hug.
"Wait. What did you find out?" I asked worriedly.
"Coach called this morning." Mike said holding the both of my hands leading me over to the bed, the two of us sitting down. "They're thinking about trading me. To Chicago." My heart sank, tears instantly filled my eyes. This can't be happening. He can't be leaving. Not now. Not ever.
"This isn't fair." I finally got out as a tear fell from my eye.
"Baby-"
"No. You can't let them trade you." I pulled away from the hug. "That isn't fair. Mike I need you here with me." I added trying my best to hold back my tears not wanting to cry anymore.
"Care. I'm sorry you're upset but it isn't my choice." Mike replied me shaking my head.
"You can't leave." I rested my head as more tears fell from my eyes. I don't think I've ever been so upset. How am I suppose to stay here all alone while Mike is gone in another state? How am I going to be away from him for at least a year? Why is this happening? I don't get it. Why would God have this happen? Why would he allow it?
