OLIVIA
I <b>was </b>bothered by the fact that Marcus locked that woman the room. She has done a lot to us and I understood <b>his </b>anger and frustration. But I didn’t think locking her up was the solution. I didn’t think it was legal as well. But I believed he <b>was </b>going to find a way around it somehow and <b>that </b>when he came back from thewyer. He wille with better <b>news</b><b>. </b>
I was going to check on her when I heard her yelling for hel. I stopped in my tracks wondering what the hell she was up to now. the woman was full of tricks that It was difficult to believe that something was wrong with her, but when she yelled the second time, I couldn’t just <b>ignore </b>it, she could be in real trouble and might lose the baby if I continue to ignore it.
I opened the door and found her on the floor looking like she couldn’t breathe. At first, I thought she was just full of it but then I saw her face turning red and I knew she was hot faking it. I rushed to her and her breathing was nowboured. I called for Nick toe and help but he didn’t believe that she was really sick
I didn’t me him though because that was the exact same thought I had when she yelled for help. Nick was about to leave when she suddenly copsed in my arms. <b>He </b>quickly came and took her from <b>my </b>arms,
and we rushed to the hospital. “Do you think something is wrong with the baby? Or maybe she got stressed for <b>being </b>locked up, what do you think is wrong?”
I asked Nick as if he knew what was going on or that he would provide me with the answers to my questions. “I am <b>not </b>a doctor, Olivia, that is why we are going to see one so that we can get the answers to your questions.” He didn’t seem pleased to be driving the woman to the hospital
“<b>She </b>is still carrying my child, you know. It doesn’t matter how bad she is, she’s still the most important person to me at the moment. I might be angry with her; I might resent her for her recent behaviour, but I can’t sit back <b>and </b><b>watch </b>her get hurt while she is carrying my child.” Nick said nothing for a while.
We got to the hospital, and she was taken in immediately. I left Marcus a message telling him where we were. Nick came back with coffee and gave me one. “Thank you.” he said nothing but sat next to me. “You need to stop letting the likes of that woman and men like Marcus and I hurt you this way.”
I nced at him, if he knew that they were hurting me, then why <b>didn’t </b>they stop, why did they keep going? I had <b>no </b>words for him. “<b>Olivia</b>?” I was getting fed up with him telling me nonsense. “What!” he looked shocked by my outburst. But he shouldn’t, he of all people should know why I was so tired.
“I don’t understand why you are telling me all this now, what <b>am </b>I supposed to do with that? you hurt me, and <b>you </b>know you did, and you are telling me this now. what do <b>you </b>want me to do with it when the damage is already done? If it was written on all your faces that you will one day hurt me, believe me, <b>I </b>would have run for the hills, but it was not <b>and </b>can’t predict the future. So, tell <b>me</b><b>, </b>what the hell do you want me to do?”
He looked like he didn’t expect all that I said, I didn’t expect to say it as well, but I was tired, I truly was. These were all people I trusted and brought int my circle of life. I never thought they would hurt me and if I went around In life thinking that everyone, I meet will hurt me, then I will never have rtionships.
I would end up alone and I didn’t want that. already, I didn’t have friends because I didn’t trust them. I was always worried that they would one day hurt me like <b>Sandra </b>did. Forgetting that not everyone is like her. but because of what she did, I struggled letting anyone in
“You know, if I had believed that every man, I met was like you and will hurt me the same way you did. I wouldn’t have let Marcus in, <b>then </b>I wouldn’t have experienced the love and care he gave me, the happiness it brought me being with him. the security and tranquillity. Yes, things are not good now, but it is not my husband’s fault.<b>” </b>
I <b>sighed</b>, “It’s easy to me each other when things go wrong, and things are going terribly wrong in my
marriage right now. but my husband is not to me alone, chose that woman; he kept telling me that there was something about her, but I insisted. So, yes. We are in this situation right now not only because of what that woman has been making my husband do for her, but also, because I chose her and brought her into our lives. I misjudged her and that is on me.”
“It will never be on you, my love.” I turned and my handsome husband was standing behind me. I offered him a smile because I knew he was only saying that tofort me to make me feel better about the situation. He came and crotched in front of me. “We will get through this, I promise, In no time. Our family will go back to what it was, in <b>fact</b>, it will be better.”
Nick clicked his tongue on the side and Marcusughed. Nick might have thought that we were going <b>to </b>end up divorcing but that was not going to happen<i>. </i>My husband loved me and didn’t want to divorce. I didn’t want it as
well.
“Every marriage goes through it’s own difficulties. It takes to people who are willing to work on the problems and fix them to stay together.” Nick clicked his tongue <b>again</b><b>; </b>he was starting to annoy me. “What is your problem?”
“Am wondering why you are such a hypocrite; you say all that and yet you couldn’t wait to get out of our marriage when we went through difficult times. Or was it because you didn’t love me enough or want to be with me enough to work on things with me?”
