chapter 2

In 2019, I celebrated my birthday alone. I wait for my husband but he didn't come.

In 2020, I celebrated alone again, even though he went home he just sleep directly, he didn't even greeted me, and just ignored me.

Last year, he brought another girl. Both of them ignored me as if I'm just a maid in the house, and they went to our bedroom, minutes later Blake shouted at the girl.

"Get out of this room right away", he was so angry. I've never seen him this angry before. What happened when I was in the Sala?

"I'm so sorry, I won't ask you again so please calm down, it's just a slight mistake right", the girl beside me was crying while she tried to reassure him.

"If you won't listened to my orders, I will kill you", Blake was really angry than before. What did this girl asked Blake that made him angry?

The girl ran away from our house hurriedly, it looked like she's scared. Even though she didn't respect me, I feel sorry for her.

I went to Blake to know what's the problem and help him getting up. Our bedroom was so messy, I worked so hard to clean this, so that when Blake wants to sleep he will lay down comfortably in our room.

"Blake what did she ask that it made you angry? Why are you so drunk? You should stop drinking alcohol or wine, it's bad for your health", I'm so worried about him that I endlessly scold him.

"Can you stop?, You're not my mom, are you?, So stop talking, it hurts my ear", Blake shouted at me like I was deaf. My tears were falling down but Blake just laughed at me because I was pathetic to look at.

I ran out of the room while crying, I pity myself for not being strong. What did I do wrong? I was just worried about him. I know that our marriage was decided by our family. Both of us was forced to marry each other but does he have to shout at me?.

I keep whimpering like a child, just like what Blake told me I'm so pathetic. I pity myself for being weak.

From then on, I kept on practicing everyday so that I won't cry easily and so Blake won't called me pathetic anymore. Even though he treated me like that I still forgive him and think of it as he doesn't want me to be weak.

Everyday I keep on waiting for him to come home for my birthday, so what if I will go to his company this afternoon instead, I'll surprise him. I wonder what his reaction will be. Hehehehehe this is fun.

I go to Deluxe company, when I am about to enter the guard stop me.

"Ma'am I'm sorry I can't let you in unless you have an appointment with our boss", the guard speak to me gently and he shows respect to me. It's the first time that someone really respect me for how many years. I feel a little shy and happy.

"I am Blake's wife, Lyrice Y. Deluxe. I'm sorry I didn't inform anyone in the company that I'll be going since I want to surprise Blake", I smile with a respectable tone.

"Huh?, you're boss Blake's wife? Oh I'm sorry from stopping you to enter, please forgive me madam", at first he look hesitant then he bow to me that shows how sorry is he.

"Oh it's nothing, you're just doing your job as a guard of this company, I've never met such a dedicated employee before, you really are a good person. Now please excuse me and thank you", I replied with a smile on my face.

"Thank you too ma'am", the guard replied.

When I enter the company, everyone are so shock even assistant Yung, he even spill his coffee because he's too shock.

I have no idea why are they so shock. Maybe they're shocked because it's my first time entering the company or they're just mesmerized by my beauty, don't take it seriously I'm just joking.

They start whispering and mumbling, I can sense their eyes are staring at me and it looks like they're making fun of me.

Did I forget to wear my pants?

Do my period comes today?

Did I do something wrong?

I really have no idea why they start doing something like that. Suddenly, assistant Yung come to me with a desperate look.

"Ms. Lyrice, why are you here? aren't you suppose to be in the house?", assistant Yung ask me while panicking.

"Assistant Yung, are you okay? why are you panicking?, I ask him with a worried look

"Oh, it's nothing ma'am, I'm just like this everyday because I have so many work", he replied.

Even though he keeps on smiling to reassure me that everything's okay, it's still so obvious that he's lying but I just let it go cause maybe he has he's reason why he's like that.

"Assistant Yung, do you know where is the restroom, I just feel nauseous suddenly", I ask him with a smile on my face.

" Just go to the left side of that room and you'll see the restroom sign", he replied to my question with a confused looks on his face.

"Thank you", I say.

Then I run fast directly to the restroom. I'm so scared back then, my tears are starting to fall down but I keep holding it in, so that I won't be pathetic anymore. If Blake sees me like this, he will say that I'm so pathetic. I don't want that.

But even though, I try to hold back my tears. It still not enough to stop it from falling. I cry and cry until there're no tears to let out. I keep whimpering like a child. I face a biggest challenge in my life and yet my husband isn't here to comfort me or let alone stay with me.
