LOGINMira’s POV)David opened his mouth to tell me that I should give him a child. I was hurt. I stared at him, wondering if I had heard him correctly. After everything I had said to him, after telling him how tired I was of everything happening in our marriage, that was what he had to say to me. A child.“Give me a child, Mira,” he repeated.How could he say something like that to me? How could he look at me and tell me to give him a child when he knew how things had been between us?I had been his wife for a long time, yet I sometimes felt like I was living with a man I barely knew. He was always busy with something or someone. If it wasn’t work, it was Vanessa and her son. Now Sharone was bringing his second son into the picture, and David expected me to welcome everyone with a smile.I was supposed to accept everything without complaining. I was supposed to understand him. I was supposed to be the good wife who never got tired, never felt hurt, and never demanded too much from her hu
David looked at me for a moment before opening his mouth. “Mira, please take care of him.”I stared at him, wondering whether I had heard him correctly. “David, what did you just say?”“I said I want you to take care of my son when he comes to live with us.”I let out a bitter laugh. “Are you serious right now?”He frowned. “Mira, why are you reacting like this? He’s my son.”“And Vanessa is already here with her son!” I exclaimed. “Now Sharone is bringing your second son to you, and you expect me to take care of him too?”“Mira, please lower your voice.”“Lower my voice?” I repeated in disbelief. “David, do you even listen to yourself? You are sitting right in front of me, asking me to take responsibility for another child when you haven’t even considered how I feel about everything that’s happening in this house.”“I’m not asking you to do anything unreasonable.”“Unreasonable?” I shook my head. “Then tell me, David, what exactly do you consider reasonable? You have Vanessa living h
Another knock came at the door. I turned my head toward it, wondering who it could be this time. I had barely settled down when the knocking started again.With a tired sigh, I got up from the bed and walked towards the door. When I opened it, I found David standing there again.I stared at him for a moment, wondering why he had returned. Was there something he had forgotten to tell me earlier? Or had he suddenly remembered that he had a wife in this house who deserved his attention? I stepped aside to let him in without saying a word.David walked into the room and sat down on my bed. He looked confused, as though he had something important on his mind but didn’t know how to bring it up.I closed the door and turned to look at him. “What is the problem?” I asked.He lifted his head and looked at me. “Mira, please sit down. There is something I want to discuss with you.”I frowned slightly. Something he wanted to discuss with me? I was confused because he had already come into my roo
{Mira’s POV}Those words stayed in my head. I looked toward the dining room, then back at David. I didn’t know what to say. Part of me wanted to ask him why Vanessa was already cooking in my house.Another part of me wanted to ask him whether this was how things were going to be from now on. But I kept quiet. I didn’t want to create a scene. Not yet. Instead, I followed him slowly toward the dining room.I could smell the food from where I stood. Vanessa had prepared several dishes. Leo was already sitting at the table. I looked at the dining table and then at Vanessa. She seemed completely comfortable. Almost too comfortable.It was as though she had been living in that house for years. I pulled out a chair and sat down. David sat beside me. Vanessa sat on the other side with Leo. For a few seconds, nobody said anything. Then David started talking to Leo.“How are you feeling now?”Leo smiled. “I’m feeling better, Dad.” David smiled back. “I’m glad.”I watched them. There was genuine
{Mira’s POV}A knock came on the door. I went downstairs to check who it was. The moment I opened the door, I froze. It was David, my husband, standing there with Vanessa and Leo.But what shocked me the most was the number of bags they were carrying. There were so many bags that I couldn’t help staring at them. I looked from the bags to David, then at Vanessa and Leo.How many days were they planning to stay in this house? Or were they planning to live with us now?My heart started beating faster as all kinds of thoughts ran through my mind. I opened the door wider, and before I could even say anything, Vanessa walked inside without looking at my face. She didn’t greet me.She didn’t even acknowledge my presence. She simply walked past me as if I wasn’t standing there. I watched her walk straight toward the guest room with Leo and the bags following behind her.For a moment, I just stood at the door, speechless. I had no business with Vanessa. Whatever she decided to do or however s
Jason asked if I wanted to come over since David was bringing his son and baby mama home. He said I couldn’t stay there and witness everything happening in my own house.I was quiet for a moment. A part of me wanted to say yes. I wanted to run away from everything. I wanted to leave the house before David returned with Vanessa and Leo. I didn’t want to see them walk through the same doors that David and I shared as husband and wife.But another part of me refused to leave. “Jason, I want David to come back here and see me,” I finally said. “I want to witness this myself rather than leaving my house. But when they come and I notice any misbehaving in my home, I will leave the house and come over to your place. Because I’m so ashamed.”There was silence on the other end of the phone. Jason didn’t immediately answer. Maybe he understood that I needed to see things for myself. Maybe he knew that if I left without knowing what would happen, I would spend the entire night imagining things t
{Mira’s POV}The room went silent. Dead silent. I stared at David as the voicemail ended. “You promised you would use your wife’s family money to save him. “The words echoed through my head again and again. David looked frozen. Caught. Exposed.For the first time since I met him, he had no explanat
“Please let me explain everything. David’s voice sounded far away now. Like I was underwater. Like my entire body had stopped functioning properly after hearing too many terrible truths at once.I remained on the bathroom floor trembling violently while tears and humiliation burned through my chest
MIRA’S POV)The entire ride to the hotel was silent.Painfully silent.The luxurious city of Dubai flashed outside the tinted windows towering skyscrapers, glowing billboards, expensive cars but I saw none of it. All I could see was her face.That woman. And the little boy. My chest tightened painful
