                           “Like You’ll Never See Me Again” –Alicia Keys

Pinky and Avery were upset to be coming home from Fiji so soon. They were treated like royalty there, they had everything and beyond for a nice, relaxing vacation. Now here they were heading home. Pinky still failed to tell Avery that she was expecting soon. She didn’t want to pressure herself or him since he already had one a few months away. She knew that she wouldn’t be able to hide it for too much longer so she put it off to the side for as long as she could.

“Are we going to pick up Junior?” Pinky asked Avery.

“He good. I’ll pick him up in the morning, I need some rest from that plane ride.” Avery reclined his seat back and closed his eyes.

With that being said, Pinky got on the freeway and headed home.  They arrived home close to midnight and Pinky was beat, Avery had gotten most of his sleep on the plane and the ride home. When they got in the house, Pinky went straight to bed and Avery turned on ESPN.

Avery looked at his ringing phone and hesitated to answer the blocked number. “Who is this?”

“I left you an anniversary present under the couch.” He didn’t recognize the voice, before he could ask who the person was they had hung up.

He looked under the couch and saw a Kevin Hart’s Seriously Funny. He put on the DVD and lay back on the couch with his hands in his pants. He popped up when he saw Pinky’s face on camera.

“What the fuck?” He said to himself. Avery turned into someone he didn’t want to be, mad wasn’t the word to describe his anger. His chest heaved up and down while watching his wife and Riley having mind blowing sex. He took off up the stairs skipping steps going straight to his bedroom.

“Get the fuck out my bed bitch!” He grabbed Pinky by her hair waking her up out of her sleep. He dragged her body all the way down the stairs by her hair.

“What the fuck is your problem Avery?” Tears came down her face she didn’t know why her husband turned into the incredible hulk out of nowhere. “Are you fucking crazy?” Pinky tried to pull away but Avery had a hard grip on her hair.

“No bitch, ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY?!” He raised his voice and made her look at the TV screen. Her anger turned into fear, she couldn’t believe her eyes. She just knew that she had hid the video somewhere that no one could think of.

She tried to speak but words didn’t come out of her mouth. Avery raised his fist to punch her but thought twice and let out an evil laugh.

“You ain’t even worth putting my hands on you.” Avery sniffed back tears and stared at her with a disgusted look. “I’m not even mad Horizon, I’m disappointed that you lied to me with a straight ass face and had that shit put on video for that matter.”

Pinky cursed herself for being so stupid. It was far too late now and her secret was out all she could do now is cry and beg Avery not to leave. What made it worse was that he really was going to deny her baby, which she still hadn’t told him about. “Avery I’m sorry, this happened way before we were married…”

“Fuck you Horizon it’s over! I want a divorce.” Avery threw his wedding band at her face and stormed out of the house.

“No please don’t leave Avery I apologize.” Pinky yelled after him but he didn’t look back. She fell down on her doorstep pouring out tears. She stayed there about fifteen minutes when she decided to gather herself. She went straight to her personal liquor cabinet and poured herself a glass of Absolut Vodka. She went over and picked up Avery’s band. “I’ll be damned if I’m getting a divorce.” She sat down on the stool in her kitchen and took another shot.
