How To Get A Divorce From A Billionaire ?

Episode 27

What was it like to go back with Eliyas?

I discovered that the 31 years old him was less mature than the 27 years old him, which is quite weird actually, since people tend to get more mature with the coming of ages whereas this husband of mine was living his days backwards.

You see, back when we were first married i was terrified with his over mature personality, he was serious 100% of the time, and when i threw jokes he didn't even get them!

I was only 23 years old then, i was very youthful and loved to have fun, since i was always surrounded with people only my age my mentality and even the manner in which i spoke was influenced with the modern way of talking belonging to the younger people, having a husband with a slight generation gap i thought it will be very easy to communicate with him at first, ultimately i found out i was married to a man in the mental age of 60 years old! Not only he had no idea about the most trivial of matters related to actualities such as social media, movies,the whole freaking modern world .. We even found it challenging to actually find any common topic to talk about.

Try to see things from my perspective, a newly bride whose husband only knows business .. Only speaks about stock markets and financial details i have no clue about not to mention that i had not a single thread of interest in hearing about, i was so downcast back then, we didn't even have a honeymoon since he had to work daily that is of course including weekends, So in the end i realised i married the most boring person in the world, i lost every desire in trying to communicate with him, although with the passing of days we naturally had more mutual things to share.. But i think it was because of this first long period of lack of understanding and affection that i ended up having so little emotions towards him.

Which is rather unfair to him, if the first time our marriage happened was not when i had my immature age of 23 i would have appreciated so many qualities about him: like his absolute patience in dealing with the flips of my mood, his sincerity to our marriage, his unperturbed and everlasting commitment in face of every problem we had.

The older me would have appreciated his calm and mature affections, and would have known better that a "romantic lover" isn't just a person who showers me with beautiful words and throws a surprise every two days, he can as well be a boring person who is just too inexperienced to express him self.

The 31 years old Eliyas though was different, maybe during those 3 years of separation he did a lot of reflecting, in the end the emotionless piece of wood turned into both a raging fire and a chatterbox.

When we were still in the office before leaving at 1am and he was speaking excitedly about his plans for our future i just stared at him at one point and i wondered: is this man really Eliyas?

He wasn't afraid of smiling, he wasn't afraid of mimicking my eastern accent while boldly teasing me, it was actually fun to spend long continuous hours talking with him, and getting to know this side of his.

Isn't it weird? That sometimes a woman can be married to a man for 4 long years and yet is still in the process of being introduced to him.
But even seeing such a side of him i still realised that in my heart.. Eliyas Filladi.. Was still the same mature and calm lover.

Speaking of raging fire, when we reached the house i ended up not getting any food to eat because someone had other body needs to take care of first and couldn't wait not for a second longer. In the end it wasn't until we woke up late the next day that he remembered:

_" we forgot to eat yesterday, i'm going to order food now"

I looked at him on the verge of crying, how is it that we forgot! I mentioned that i was hungry so many times that i became full only from talking about my starvation! Yet someone was very occupied to actually focus on the words i was saying!
