Chapter 1: The Final Heartbreak

Chapter 1: The Final Heartbreak

Her feet gently stomped against the marble floor as she vastly approached the golden mahogany door paces ahead of her.

She stretched forth her light tanned skin colored arm reaching for the door, making a twist at the doorknob before pushing it inward for an entrance to narrowed for her figure.

“Darling I’m home-“ Her sentence that started with glee wade off into shock and sadness when her eyes met with a scene in front of her. Her jaws crawled below, dropping slight to the floor with her eyes widening with hurt.

“Kurt!” She yelled out, her voice cracking up as she brought her palms up to cover her mouth while silent sobs broke through.

On the bed was her husband, Kurt Briggs. In bed, naked with another woman and asleep.

The loud sound of his name getting shouted had his lashes flipping open as he looked around his surrounding.

His vision navigated the room, looking to the side to find a strange woman on the bed with him naked, then to himself to see himself also naked, before his eyes finally landed at the spot where Lisa stood.

“No no no no.” His head began shaking in a negative nod as he threw off the blanket covering only his toes jumping out of the bed.

“Don’t you dare come close to me!” She warned with her index raised against his approaching figure, “How could you do this to us again for the third time?” She asked, her voice trembling with anger and sadness.

She glanced up then back at him sniffing in back some tears, “I trusted you and gave you my whole world, and this is my payment for being such a fool right? Stay the fuck away from me Kurt!” She stepped the exact feet he took closer backwards from him.

“I swear I have no idea what this is? I have no idea what is going on? I have no idea how I ended up in bed with her? Please you have to listen and let me explain. I don’t know what is going on here?” Kurt went on, pleading out his explanation with his eyes becoming teary looking at the sadness he was inflicting on her.

“You don’t have to worry about that. What you have to worry about now is that we’re over.” She blurted with all the emotions in her eyes vanishing as she held a straight face, turning back on him and walking out of the room.

“No no Lisa!” He called after her attempting to run after her before realizing he was still naked with his manhood dangling to different sides.

He rushed back to the bed, gripping on the blanket and pulling it to himself instantly wrapping it around his body.

He heard a groan, coming from the female laid on his bed. He doesn’t have the time to confront her, the true love of his life was leaving him so he glared at the lady for a split second before bolting out of the room.

Lisa descended the stairs with tears strolling down her eyes, one of her palms covering her mouth to muffle her sobs while the other held tightly to her bag.

He promised her this will never happened again, yet the promise was faltered just a day after he made it.

Kurt caught up to her as he latched a hold on her wrist pulling her to a stop. “Please-“

“Stay away from me! You’ve done enough. I’m done putting up with your lies, your ignorance, I’m done putting up with everything. You can never change, and I am a big fool for believing you will.” She spoke with fresh tears matting down her cheeks, struggling to get her wrist out of his hold.

“I honestly have. Please you have to believe that I don’t know what that was.”

“Stop it!” She snapped out in pain, his words only aggravating her anger the more that she had given so much up for this man and he has always taken it all for granted.

“Five damn years, Kurt! You’ve treated me like shit, like I worth nothing to you. Of course I do worth nothing, but I’d like to remind you what I gave up for you. I thought you realized that a week ago, but I guess it is just you messing with me again.” She broke down with each of the words spewing out of her mouth laced with intense pain and heartbreak.

She managed to get her wrist out of his hold after so many struggle, jogging down the few levering steps on her path.

Kurt ran after her, her words cutting through his deep heart. He had indeed hurt her, and it would be hard for her to see past his current deed.

How could he prove his innocence, that he didn’t know how it happened and how he ended up in bed with the stranger that happens to be his secretary from his company.

“Lisa please, I’m begging you with everything you cherished the most, please don’t walk away from me.” He got a hold of her wrist again, stopping her from making further steps toward exiting his abode.

Her head whirled to the back to face him, “I cherished you Kurt, you’re that one thing I cherished the most. In case you forgot, I have nobody except for you and it was your leverage to treat me much worse than a slave paying debt to its master is being treated. But now, I’m going to bless and grant your desire, I will leave your life like you’ve always wanted.”

“I’m really sorry for what happened in the past, I can’t change it but please you have to understand that-“

“I was very happy leaving the hospital yesterday, because I was given the best news of my life there and I just couldn’t wait to share it with you. I even wanted to cancel the visit I had promise your mother, but she’s an elder so I must honor her and decide to stall the news till this morning. Only for me to come back home to catch my very husband in the same act he promised never to engage in again. Sucks doesn’t it?”

“Lisa what news do you have for me?” He asked instead, as if all she just said weren’t spoken for his hearing except for the statement he keened out.

“Yes. But now do you even deserve to hear it?”

“Lisa are you pregnant?” He asked sharply immediately after her response, dropping her wrist as he took a step backward. What news could she receive from the hospital that she’s so happy about and eager to share with him if not that?

“Well yeah and-“

“How are you pregnant, Lisa? How?” The guilt expressed on his face was slowly getting replaced by suspense.

“If anything is stagnant in my memory, it is the fact that I have never for once engage in a sexual activity with you. So care to tell me how you become pregnant? Or are you not aware of that fact?”

The guilt on his face vanished completely, a new look taken shelter through his expression as he stared in anticipation longing for her response.

Lisa found herself speechless, he was right, but then how is she pregnant because she was sure nobody has ever gotten the chance to sniff her gate talk less of visiting.
