The Love That Is No More

Planning His Next Move

Yo's parents couldn't believe what they were hearing. How could he do this to their son they wondered, didn't Pha love him? As Yo opened up to his parents about what had been going on behind his back his parents could see the pain in his eyes and how he was trying so hard to hold it together. "It's ok son. Just let it out" his mother said in a soothing voice "You don't need to be brave." Yo wanted to cry so badly but he wasn't done quite yet. "You know the woman told me the reason she had kept it a secret, and continued to be Pha's little mistress, was because she was scared he would cut off all his support and leave her with nothing." By this point Yo couldn't hold it in anymore and let out the tears he had been trying to keep at bay.

"How could he do this to me?" Yo asked out through his broken sobs "Didn't our relationship mean anything to him?" Although Yo's father believed his son, he just wanted to make sure Yo wasn't being played by some girl who was jealous of their relationship. "Did she have some kind of proof to show you that what she said wasn't a lie, and that she was being truthful with you?" His wife wanted to hit her husband, but she too was a little curious. Yo cried out loudly for a moment before he was able to answer. "She sent me a video of Pha and her together. She looked to be about 8-9 months pregnant in the video. You could clearly see it was Pha so it is not like she hired someone to make it look like Pha. His voice was also very recognisable."

By this point Mr Panitchayasawad was fuming, having entrusted his son to Pha only to have the man hurt his son in the worst way he could imagine. "I'm going to kill that son of a bitch" Mr Panitchayasawad screamed out "How could he do this to our son? He promised that he would never hurt our baby and yet he goes behind Yo's back to get another bitch pregnant." Yo's mother was just as hurt and disappointed in Pha as her husband, but she was able to hold herself a little better. "Honey calm down a little. Yo really needs our support at this moment."

"I won't rest until Pha has lost everything precious to him" Mr Panitchayasawad said in anger. By this time Yo interjected "Look dad. I know you are hurt by Pha's actions., I am too, but I don't want you to do anything to him. He has 3 kids, maybe even 4 by now, that needs to be taken care off. I know what he did was horrible, and I'll never forgive him for it but I can't let those innocent children suffer for his mistakes." Yo's father wanted to argue some more but his wife gave him a look that meant leave it. Reluctantly Mr Panitchayasawad dropped the matter and figured he would let his son handle this.

"You're not going to stay married with him?" his mother asked. Yo then left the room for a moment before he came back with a stack of papers. "I've already spoken to my lawyer and gotten the divorce papers ready and waiting. I have it stated that I want the house, 20 million dollars and a no contact order. Everything else from our relationship he can keep. The less I must be reminded of him the better. If he doesn't agree to this, I won't hesitate to leak that video footage of him and the girl to the press and see his world come crashing down."

Yo's parents were proud that their son was handling this better than they expected, he wasn't letting Pha control his life and was going to let his husband know not to mess with him. Christmas was in a couple of days and Yo needed to go if he was going to catch his flight on time. "I love you guys so much, but I really need to go as my flight in in a couple of hours and I don't want to miss my flight. Once this is all over, I will come by to see you guys before I go back to university." His parents said goodbye to their son before they left the call, leaving their son to get ready before his flight back to Thailand.

Once the call ended Yo had a quick shower and packed up the few remaining items he had left before he called a taxi and made his way to the airport. Yo was going to be staying in their home as he was positive that Pha would be sleeping over at his mistress' place since he believed his husband wasn't dropping by for a visit. Yo arrived at the airport around 4:30 pm and after checking in had just under an hour to wait before his flight was scheduled for departure. The flight itself was over 11 hours so Yo would be arriving back in his home country just after 10:30 am and be in his bed, well the guest bedroom as wasn't sure if Pha had ever taken the mistress to their place or not, around 11:30 . During the long flight Yo spent most of it watching some movies the airline was showing as he enjoyed his first-class seat.

There was a slight delay before take-off, so Yo didn't land in Thailand until 11 am and after grabbing a bite to eat took a taxi home to the house he had been previously sharing with Pha. After Christmas Pha will no longer be a part of his life and once the divorce is finalised, he will be free from the selfish man he had so blindly loved. Once Yo arrived home, he wasn't surprised to find the house completely empty, considering it was Sunday so Pha wasn't working. He was right that his soon to be ex-husband wasn't going to be home and would bet his whole life that Pha was his mistress playing house. The moment Yo arrived home he made his way to one of the guest rooms and placed his suitcase near the cupboard before he stripped to nothing but his boxers and crawled into bed to sleep.

Yo was so tired that he slept for over 12 hours and woke up near midnight. He was rather hungry, so he got up in search of food but was surprised to find there was barely anything in the kitchen and what was there had already expired. This was just more proof that Pha spent little to no time here while he was away in another country. Yo was glad that Christmas was only 2 days away so he could finally rid himself of his cheating husband and find someone who will love him no matter what. It was going to be hard, but Yo knew this was the right decision and needed to remove Pha from his heart once and for all.

The day before Christmas Yo spent it at home, boxing up all of Pha's belongings before he had some removalists pack them in their truck and shipped off to May's house. While Yo was working with his lawyer to get the divorce papers ready, he had investigated this May woman and found out exactly who she was and where she was currently living. He had discovered just how much Pha had been supporting her as he bought her 2 houses, the 2nd one he guessed was due to their family growing and they needed more space. Pha was also paying her a weekly allowance so she could pay for things like food, electricity, baby supplies etc.

This woman was really like a second wife to Pha and was smart enough to put everything in her name so that it wouldn't be easy to keep track. What Pha didn't count on was an upset, angry and mostly broken man to dig deeper into his life to find out everything he needed. Once all Pha's belongings were boxed up and loaded onto the truck the 2 men drove away, leaving Yo all alone in the house as he worked on the next part of his plan. Yo had also given the 2 men a yellow envelope, containing the divorce papers, and asked them to place it on top of one of the boxes once they unloaded the truck. Yo had paid them quite handsomely as the delivery men were going to make the drop off around 6 am in the morning, while Pha was still asleep.

That night Yo sent Pha a text saying he had a Christmas surprise for him and couldn't wait for his husband to see. Like he expected Pha had ignored the message and wasn't at all surprised it wasn't even read. That night Yo slept like a baby, knowing that after tomorrow Pha will be out of his life and he could move on from the heartache his husband left behind. It wasn't until 11 pm that Pha finally read Yo's message and replied that he couldn't wait. Yo smiled upon reading his soon to be ex-husband's reply, knowing he would be in for the shock of his life in just a few hours.
