After The Divorce The Thruth
Jacob I can see the wheels turning in her head after I told her the truth about what I wanted, I mean she asked and im not one to lie, especially about my own feelings for her. My only regret was that I didn't take the time to get to know her or find out the truth about everything that I heard about her, being that everything came from my mother and sister that should've been my first clue to do a deeper investigation into their claim. Grabbing her chin in my hand I turn her head towards me “ Stop overthinking, how about baby step?” keeping hopes up knowing that she might reject me at in second. Leaning forward she goes “ Baby step what? If I recall you have a fiance” She reminded me of the unfortunate fate that stuck on me with no chance of letting go. Closing the small distance between us, I trace her lips with my finger making her grasp, tilting my head a little I gave her a soft kiss, thinking she might push me away and when she didn't I went again this time I bit her mak

Arianna Checking myself in the mirror one last time to make sure that nothing was out of place and applying a little more red lipstick a couple of months into our marriage, I discovered that red was his favorite color. Tonight I'm wearing it to say goodbye to the man and the color. Going downstairs, the smell of the food hits my nose and makes my mouth watery; I spend half of the day preparing for tonight’s dinner cause I want everything to go softly. Checking my watch, I see that he should've been here already, if Jacob isn’t anything but punctual that he is, which is weird that he is not here yet, picking up the phone to give him a call when suddenly I heard the door open for him to walk in “What's all this? Was the first word that came out of his mouth, letting it roll off my shoulder. “It's our anniversary dinner, what do you think?” I told him while I approached him with a glass of wine, forcing a smile on my face. “ Do we have to indulge in this nonsense every year?” he

Jacob Divorce? Divorce? I kept repeating in my head that I couldn't bring myself to believe what I was hearing. No, there was no way that she would want to walk away from this glamorous life that she had wanted from the beginning. Shaking my head, I followed her downstairs to find out what her end game was because I couldn’t believe that woman would want a divorce. “ What’s the game, Arianna? Is it money you want?” I found myself asking her because I was fighting the urge to come to terms with what was on these pieces of paper. With her back towards me, she said, “ I don’t want your money; all I need is a divorce.”, she looked over her shoulder at me and said, “Is that so hard to believe? That I just need a divorce?” she asked me with a look of disbelief on her face. I don’t want to admit it but yes, it is hard to believe that she just wants a clean divorce I can’t wrap my head around what she is saying because this woman standing in front of me is cunning and vicious. I can'
Last Updated : 2025-04-02After The Divorce Thought He Would Be Happy
Arianna I thought he would jump at this chance to sign the paper and get it over with, but now the man seems to be dragging this thing along. It's been four days since I've been calling and texting him to find out when he is going to sign the paper so I can move on. The paper doesn't stop me from doing my thing, but I want to know that I put that part of my life behind me and leave that life behind me. Divorce wasn't my first option, but when that low down of a woman came to me to glow about being in a relationship with my husband, that was the end for me. I know the way that I force myself into the Milan family, in their eyes, I deceive them, and that's okay because I was in a moment of distress, and Jacob was the only one that could help me at the time, to say I'm not ashamed of my decision would be a lie because every night I lay next to him, I would think if I made the right decision. My best friend Lucia walked into the room and she held a bag that I'm sure had some drin

Jacob He got home for the first time since the night he got those divorce papers from Arianna; he kept himself busy with work so he didn't have to think about the documents in his drawer, waiting for him to sign and end his marriage. A marriage that he despised so much, shaking his head; no, not the marriage but the woman that I called my wife; my feelings towards her were very, very hostile to the point where I could call it hate; that’s the reason why I can’t understand why I am having second guess my decision to sign those papers and set myself free. Who wouldn't jump at a chance like that? The woman I don't even like wants a clean divorce; letting out a dry laugh, I pick up the bottle of whiskey and make my way up to the main bedroom; while unbuttoning my shirt, I take a shot of the brown liquor, letting the burn comforting me in the darkness of the room cause there is no way that I'm feeling sad over her no being here, nope that can’t be there must be another reason why

AriannaRushed to my car with no thoughts running through my head, no, that's not right, I have a thought, how in the hell did I let a simple lunch get to that point? Ugh, girl, you need to get a handle on yourself because there is no way you can go back to that man, no matter how good this kiss was, you can't fall for him, not again, yeah, not again. I kept telling myself, well, driving back to Lucia’s apartment, at least I did start to believe my lies until I got into the apartment and stared at myself in the mirror to see the evidence of that kiss on my lips, knowing I was done for. Sliding down on the floor with my back against it, I thought, damn, when did I lose control of the situation, a little voice said, “Did you ever have a handle on the situation?” getting off the floor, I looked at myself and the mirror and say “ yes I did, I sure did and I will get back in control” pointing to myself with motivation enough I went back in the kitchen to eat the lunch, there's no reaso

There's no need for me to push for something that isn't meant to be, you know, I came to terms with my feelings for her right after that I give her that kiss I knew that my old feelings for her were coming back, I also knew that she won’t give me a second chance, not just because of the way I was towards her but my family won't make it easy for me.

After The Divorce Why is This So Hard?
Arianna Well, I would say the days after my brother dropped the news weren't the best for me, I kept replaying his words over and over in my head trying to make sense of them but no matter how I looked at it, nothing made sense in my head. I know one thing about my brother he won't lie about something so big, even with if I didn't give him money he wouldn't ever make up something like that. “ Hey, did you get the sample from the factory?” Lucia popped her head in the door to my room. Staring at her it took a moment for me to hear what she said “ Yeah, I did and I spoke to them about fixing the little mistake, so we should get them on time” “ Thanks, babe, “ She was about to leave but stopped “ Are you okay? “ I know why she is asking because after my brother left the house she saw me fall apart. “Yeah, im fine don't worry” She didn't look like she believed me, I plastered a smile on my face to show her that I was all right, I am fine it was just a lot to digest all at o

After The Divorce Enjoying The Game
Jacob It's been two weeks since Arianna was at my house, and I sent her a picture of her purse that she left there, but she didn't text me to say if she wants it back or not, but im sure she does, cause it has all of her essential cards in there. I know she won't be the one waiting for her to come. Once I have a little time off, I’ll invite her, but meanwhile, I have to get my mother to get this idea of me marrying Lisa out of her head. How they came to meet, I dont know, but it doesn't matter. I have to end this mess; walking out of the office, I felt like things were about to move forward with Arianna, but with my parents showing up that morning, I knew she wouldn't see me anytime soon. When I got in my car, my phone vibrated with a text. When I checked, I saw that it was from Arianna. “Why is your mother following me?” I was confused. ME: “What do you mean, follow you?” I send back Sexy wife: “She was waiting for me at a dinner at my job.” Before I could respond, she sent ano
After The Divorce Independence
Arianna Why do I always end up in those kinds of situations? No, not always; since Jacob and I divorced, I've been caught in cases I wouldn't have been in when we were married; what's happening now? I do not like it one bit. Pulling my phone out of my back pocket, I called for a taxi while standing outside his house. By the time I got home, I couldn't come up with any idea as to why I'll let whatever it was that happened in the kitchen happen; trying not to make any noise, I tiptoed around the house on my way to the bedroom. “ Are you now getting home?” Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw Lucia standing there with a cup in her hand, giving me a suspicious look. Standing straight, I walked up to her. “ How could you let me go with him?” I poked her in the arm. Laughing, “You look like you were having so much fun,” looking innocently, “Now who am I to disturb such a union?” “ UNION?! What union?” she asked, leaving her standing there with her nonsensical. Jacob and I didn'
After The Divorce Turns Of Events
JacobOkay, I was shocked that Arianna was the one that started this whole thing with her kissing me; knowing that she was drunk and all, I tried to push her away, but I dont know if the alcohol was the reason she was strong, but my girl did not want to let me go. As much as I would love to spend the night making love to her, not in this condition, “Aah, you need to go to sleep, “I pulled her grip on my shirt and turned her toward the bed.It wasn't an easy decision with the way she was moving her waist against my front, which made it hard for me to keep being a gentleman, but after a lot of fighting, I tried to get her on the bed under the cover. Once I made sure she was good, I went to get myself a cold shower to calm me down so I could get a good night's sleep; at least, it's something that im praying for with her beside me; it's going to be a long one.Once I was out of the shower, I went downstairs to get Arianna some aspirin and a bottle of water for the headache I knew she woul
