UNCHARTED TERRITORY

Anniversary

Playlist: motivation-Kelly Rowland

I woke up next to my snoring husband, Frankie. The sight of him disgusting me. I looked at him and rolled my eyes. Its been three years since we got married.

I stood up then walked to the bathroom to take a shower. Its been months since Frank and I touched. I remembered how the night of our wedding day was, his eyes were soft, how he looked at me melted my insides. We had waited until the night of our wedding day to have sex. It was something I grew up preaching to myself. Never to have sex until I get married, that's also the reason why no guy wanted me until frank came and my life changed. He didn't mind the vows I had made and agreed to wait.

All this time I didn't realize I was touching myself with the images of our first night in the Hilton hotel, both of us lusting over each other. We made love like hungry foxes, I tore his shirt off and swallowed hard. I didn't know he was so manly, with slight visible hairs on his chest, made him look so handsome. At this point, the water was hitting my body as if got off in the shower. I rinsed myself then wore my rob and left the shower to find the bed empty.

I didn't bother, I blow dried my hair, then wore a matching red lacy bra and thong which made me feel more sexy. I worked in a huge firm and my boss and I had been banging since frank stopped paying attention to me. I wore my very tight black pencil skirt and a white chiffon polka dot blouse then applied a little makeup then took my handbag and walked out of the room.

"Hey! You're leaving already?" Frank looked disappointed, he was in the kitchen wearing his boxers and a vest with a red apron written "Happy anniversary". Honestly, he looked sexy with his morning un-kept hair and blue eyes bright almost blinding me.

"I was making us breakfast. Its long since we sat and ate something. Plus its our anniversary." He continued when I didn't say a word

I wanted to kiss him and tell him how sweet that was but, instead, I took my coat and keys and said, "I've got unfinished work in the office Frankie, I cant stay for breakfast I'm sorry. Happy anniversary too. See you." I rushed out of the door without giving him another look.

Outside the door, I closed my eyes and inhaled. A tear dropping from my eye. I rubbed it off then walked to my red sports car which he bought me on our second year anniversary. I looked at it and thought of going back inside but decided against the thought and drove out of the place like a maniac.

I turned on the music in my car loud enough to stop myself from thinking about frank.

I got in my office back at my work place, thoughts of Frankie still lingering in my head. It took me twenty minutes to settle for work which was unusual. I always went to my boss's office first thing to get a quickie before I started work but I didn't go since I found it strange for my husband to cook, or look at me. He never looked at me. I started feeling over weight, and started doing yoga And visiting the gym but it wasn't that.

"Shelby? Shelby? Hello?" My boss Davis was waving his hand over my distracted face.

"MH? Huh?" I responded my mind registering where I was.

"You look distracted today. Everything okay?" He asked concern washed all over his face.
