LUKE: 30 DAYS

Luke changed after that long 3 beautiful years of being married.

He will go to work, go clubbing and go home late. Not even bothering to check on your daughter Max.

You're sitting on the couch reading your favourite book while waiting for luke. It's almost midnight and you cant help but worry for your husband.

After a while, the front door creaked, revealing a very drunk luke. Alcohol can be smelled even if you're away from him.

"Luke, you're drunk again" you said making your way to him and helping him get of off his coat.

"Im sleepy" he plainly said and stumbled at his way from the stairs.

You cant help but sigh and watched him went inside the room you shared. You locked the front door and followed luke.

There you saw him, passed out on the soft mattress. You changed his clothes and tucked him on the blanket. Once you're done, you started fixing the folders and files, luke just thrown on the corner of the room.

There you see, divorce papers.

Tears started streaming down your cheeks.

Sure, you know that he fell out of love, sure you two are drifting apart.. But you didnt know that this will lead to divorce.

You placed it to the side table and sat beside luke's sleeping figure.

You looked at him and caressed his cheeks softly. "Why?" You silently asked.

Y

ou took a deep breath and lay beside him, you are facing him but there's space between you.

The next morning, you opened your eyes and saw Luke still asleep beside you. You got up and went downstairs to cook breakfast for Luke and Max.

After a while, the pancakes are ready, you got upstairs, to your daughter's room.

"Love, wake up" you said to your daughter while softly patting her thigh.

Her little hands rubbed her beautiful eyes which she got from her father. "is it mowning alweady mommy?" She asked.

"Yes and you have to get ready for your first day on school" You said. Her eyes twinkled in excitement.

"Is daddy going to dwive me to school mommy?" She asked, you dont know what to say.

"You should ask him that love" you said with a forced smile on your face.

Her little hands held yours as she ran downstairs to see her father, Luke hurriedly getting ready.

"Why didnt you fucking wake me up?" He asked.

"Language Luke, Max's is here" you said.

"Bullshit, im fucking late" he said and got his bag.

"Daddy-" Max is cutted by Luke.

"Not now Max, Not now" he said and left the house.

Tears are forming to your little angel's eyes. You knelt infront of her and wiped her tears.
