Married

9. End this

(Leo's POV)

Mother said she had to talk to me about some stuff. She said my husband was making everyone proud but I was failing at making him happy because he had told her I was too affectionate towards one employee and he didn't like him... I told mom he had no reason to feel jealous of Hyuk and mom said she would find a new assignment for him, just not as my personal assistant anymore.

I was exhausted and when I got home I noticed none was there even though there were shoes in the entrance... I opened our bedroom door and they were right there... Having sex in our bed...

He said again that I could leave the house and handle the talk of the people if I wanted...

He made me watch him... in our bed... with him...

The next day...

- As always, a pleasure to have you~ - he said as he escorted the man to the door.

He closed the door behind him and sat down ready to eat breakfast.

- So, what did you make for me today?

My hands were shaking...

- I think I'll go to my room now? Since now I can finally-

- What? Going to clean up? What a wonderful housewife...

- I... - I couldn't control my tears... - I hate you...

- Just handle me the papers then, honey... it's up to you... end this miserable life of ours, end this marriage.

- I won't! I will not divorce you! I will not just handle you over to that slut. You want to ruin my family by divorcing me and then go to him? So that everyone knows you'd rather be with that one, that I am worth less than-

- Taekwoon, you are so boring.

I went to my room and I wanted to break everything.

- I'm not letting you have it your way. I won't be the one divorcing you. I won't... let you win...

I cleaned the room... I went back to the kitchen to wash the dishes from breakfast. I took a sip from a bottle I had, I won't let him notice... I won't let him see me suffer.

The next day and the next day I kept playing the "perfect wife" role... and I got used to him and his night visitor... I went to the kitchen and I opened a drawer, I poured the drink on a glass and I took the content of the little bottle in my pocket on the glass... I drank it and then I put on my best fake smile.

- He left early today... - I said

- Taekwoon, how can you be so cold about this?

- Cold?

He tried to kiss me and I hated it. He put his hands on me and I knew what he wanted

- How dare you? You reek of him. Have the decency to take a bath before you...

- Decency?

- You were inside him just a moment ago, how do you expect me to take you in now?

- Gross. You are talking about this so coldly. But guess what? You are mine by law and since you are my bitch, I can do as I want.

I punched him.

- No, you can't.

He grabbed me and forced me

- Why.... – he sounded sad – where is your heat, where is your warm and loving heart, you feel so cold... you are so distant... I hate this!

- I hate... you - I said trying my best not to cry

- Well, guess what? I'm still getting what I want!

It was the first time in our married life that we had sex and not made love...
