Different Shades Of Life

Facade

"Who's coming for our company's anniversary", Aaron asked his colleague.
"John, he is very famous among people and has won 3 times championship in wrestling", Sam said without looking at him.
"Ok. Let's go and invite him properly", Aaron said and went outside.

John arrived to the ceremony with his wife and they looked like one happy couple so much in love.
They smiled at each other and star into each other's eyes like they couldn't divert their attention on anyone.
It was like they are living in their own happy little bubble.

Reporters were crazily buzzing around them.
Aaron watched the couple and smiled to himself and felt happy for them.
Organisers had asked John and his wife to wait in a room while they completed every work and then prepare to begin the ceremony.

One of the manager asked Aaron to bring the guest so they could begin the ceremony.
Aaron went to the room to bring the couple out for the ceremony.
That's when he heard noises inside the room where John and his wife were waiting. Aaron went inside and saw John hitting his wife and slap her. Aaron eyes widened at the sight.
Happy lovely couple has never existed it was just a disguise.
He wanted to punch John straight in his face for hitting the woman.

He went inside and grabbed John's hand before he landed another slap on her face.
His wife pleaded Aaron to stop and said that he was making a scene for nothing and it would only tamper her husband's pride in the public.

Aaron was stunned at her pleading tone. He didn't know why would she pleaded for a husband like John.
Aaron stepped back and informed them that they were needed for ceremony to begin, without an ounce of expression on his face.
He knew he couldn't be able to do anything for her but to feel sorry.
He can't help the woman who doesn't need any help.

Why does she have put up with this and him?
This question swirls around Aaron's head for that whole day and that entire week.
But he doesn't seem to find an answer to those questions.
Not everyone deserves the love and attention they are getting. He pitied her and hoped that one day she would come to her senses and divorce him and live happily without him. Aaron just hoped.
