Do What You Want Chapter 8
"Once you've said everything you came to say, we should finalize the divorce," I said."Then I'll spend the rest of my life talking and never let it finish," Josh said.I froze at the unexpected tenderness in his words. Then I shook my head and smiled. "Neither of us ever had much to say."At our worst, we would go an entire week without exchanging even ten sentences. "I made things clear to Natalie. I won't see her again. I used her illness as an excuse to stay with her again and again." He sobbed and he wiped the corner of his eye. "You know it. But out of my own selfishness, I never considered your feelings.""It's all over," I shook my head."No! It's not over! Rena, let me make it up to you," Josh begged.I didn't understand any of this. "You clearly don't love me, so why won't you let me go?"Josh reacted fiercely as he gripped my hand and shouted, his voice almost angry. "I love you!"I smiled. "This isn't how love looks like. Every time Natalie and I needed you, you c

Meanwhile, I quickly settled into my new life in Nettleford.It didn't take long before my lawyer Andy called me. I felt a flicker of surprise and relief, thinking everything had been resolved. Instead, Andy said, "He didn't sign the papers. He keeps asking me for your address instead."I was quiet for a long time.Then Andy spoke again. "Should I give it to him? He's been waiting outside my office for days. Should I call the police?"I stood on my balcony, stroking Milo as I watched the sunset."Rena?" Andy prompted me."Handle it however you think is best," I said.He let out a sigh of relief, as if he had been waiting for those words. "Alright. Leave it to me."After the call, Andy immediately reported Josh to the police. The grounds were stalking and unlawful restraint.Josh spent three days in custody.Natalie was furious and called me."Rena, I don't understand. What do you gain by making things so hard for him? He has barely eaten or slept because of you, yet you ha

Josh's fingers twitched. He sat motionless at his table at the restaurant for a long time before he finally stood up and left, his mind in a mess.His phone rang as soon as he got into his car. His eyes focused as he picked it up eagerly.Then he saw the name on the screen. Nat.His smile disappeared. He tossed the phone onto the passenger seat. He watched her name flash across the screen repeatedly and his thoughts drifted.Would ordinary friends use such an intimate nickname?Would they call each other countless times every day?He picked up the phone and checked the call log. They had spoken seventeen times in the past five days. Then, he checked his call history with Rena. There were no calls at all.His head began to pound.When he didn't answer, Natalie began bombarding him with messages.[Josh, are you busy? Why didn't you answer?][Mom threw up again. I'm so scared. Can you come stay with me?][The apartment is so dark and I'm panicking.]Another ten minutes had

Josh's expression froze when he heard from Andy about the divorce. He was very certain he had misheard. "What?"Before Andy could answer, Josh laughed. "What kind of joke is this? You must have the wrong person. Please leave."Andy ignored Josh's cold attitude. Instead, he confirmed Josh's identity. "Your wife is Ms. Rena, whose maiden name is Stone, correct? If she isn't, then I really do have the wrong person."The smile slowly faded from Josh's face. He could no longer deny what was happening. He stared at the divorce papers for a long time before looking up. He asked, "On what grounds did she give for the divorce?""Irreconcilable differences," Andy said.Josh could feel his head throbbing as he fumed. "We barely even argue. What do you mean by irreconcilable differences?"He scoffed, feeling that the reason was weak.Andy remained unmoved by his attack and asked calmly, "Is that so? As I understand it, a loving husband would never skip his mother-in-law's funeral."J

Early the next morning, I began preparing everything for the prayer service. I had worked all morning to prepare the booklets and other items needed.When I finally had some free time, I hurriedly ate a few bites.Josh didn't send me a single message. Yesterday's promise meant nothing by morning. Still, I waited a little longer until the priest reminded me several times that it was time to begin.In the end, I called Josh. He had completely forgotten about it and it took him a moment to remember. His tone was apologetic as he said, "Natalie's mother suddenly became ill, so I'm taking her to the hospital right now.""Can't Natalie take her?" I asked."I'm worried she can't manage alone." Josh said.Hearing that, I could feel a cutting pain in my heart. When I miscarried, he had never worried whether I could manage anything alone. When I arranged my mother's funeral by myself, he was not worried about that either. Yet when Natalie's mother fell ill, he was more attentive than

Pain spread through my chest. Out of habit, I reached for my phone to call my mother.In the next second, I remembered she was gone. It was at that moment I broke down sobbing.My mother had actually tried to warn me years ago. "Rena, Josh is a good man, but he doesn't love you enough."I had refused to believe her and married him without hesitation. I had even called myself an independent woman. "So what if he doesn't love me enough? Love grows over time! He'll love me eventually!"Reality had finally slapped me in the face, so that I couldn't lie to myself anymore.On the way to get Milo, I stopped at a lawyer's office. I explained exactly what I wanted. Once everything was arranged, I brought Milo home.The moment I walked in, Natalie posted another update on Facebook.[Guess who got spoiled again? He made it up to me with another little cake!]She stood by the ocean in a slip dress, holding the cake and smiling at the camera. Josh's coat was draped over her shoulders.
