Care

I smiled gently humming my little tune as I made dinner in my little house, the cold wind whistling though the house as the rain battered it, the little clink of the water dripping though the roof onto the little pots and pans I had set out to catch it, I looked into the house a moment seeing little Melody sat on the floor in her little dress her brown hair in a little tie to keep it out of her eyes watching the water drip into the pan giggling each time it did, Luna sat at the table hitting her spoon onto the table her dress half on where she had tried to remove it and blue ribbons in her brown hair

"Luna stop that" I told her taking the spoon away from her 

"Mama! Mama! I found a rat!" Harry smiled excitedly holding the tale of a dead rat his clothes soaked from the water and his brown hair flat on his head as he ran in though the door 

"Harry put that back dear!" I warned him he nodded running back outside to put it back where he found it and coming back in "Go wash your hands before dinner silly boy" I told him and he nodded going over and doing so, "what we're you doing out there harry?"

"I was looking for daddy" 

"Well daddy won't be home yet, he's still at work" I laughed using my apron to dry his hair slightly 

"But I saw him mama!"

"Did you now? and where did you see daddy?" I laughed returning to fixing dinner 

"going towards Mrs Millers house" 

"Did you? well maybe it was someone who looked like daddy" I told him "Go on go get your sister for dinner" I told him I sighed a little trying not to show my concern to the children, he was late home. again. I too had seen him going to Mrs Millers just down the street but he assured me every time it was business related, even if I did doubt it. Mrs Miller was beautiful her husband always away, she had no children and had never been pregnant a body as perfect as any maiden. She was younger too, four years younger then I was. I hoped in my heart it was just business even if in some ways I think I knew it wasn't. 

"DADDY!" Harry smiled jumping from the table into the arms of his father Luna smiled jumping on her chair and melody giggled opening her arms like she wanted a hug 

"Hello kids" He smiled to them putting harry back in his chair leaving the girls with nothing as he often did, 

"Hello Arthur" I smiled going and giving his cheek a kiss "dinners almost ready"

"Great" He sighed sitting at the table, I thought little off it he had been less affectionate lately, he had been so busy with work. I gave everyone there dinner sitting at the table helping melody to eat hers inbetween eating my own, Arthur didn't touch his food at all watching harry talk about the rat he found. Once everyone had eaten I gathered up everything and send the children to bed, Arthur sat at the end of the table emotionless and still. 

"Something the matter Arthur?" I asked 

"I didn't want to do this in front of the children" he sighed 

"Do what?"

"Y/n... We both knew this day was coming" 

"What are you talking about?" 

"Y/n. I'm leaving you"

"Le- Leaving me?" I asked in shock "But... I'm your wife? we have three young children? Don't you love me anymore?"

"Y/n I never loved you." He said standing from his chair as I thought back tears "You where just some slut who let me fuck you, You really think I would have married you if you hadn't got pregnant with Harry!" He yelled "I can't do this y/n. I never wanted kids, I never wanted a family, I never even wanted you. I have to focus on my work."
