Cleo
On Sunday morning I woke up to news that my husband; who everyone thinks isn't my husband has a bit of fun after suspending me. I'm normally up at nine on a Sunday morning , but on that morning in particular I was feeling strange . Why did my husband lie to me about kissing Mia and did he just marry me for convenience sake ?

He had also become my best friend in the process ,and after everything we've been through I cannot believe what had just happened.

That is just a dream .What is not a dream however is the continuous attacks I've been getting from my mother in law who seems to be using my husband's old girlfriends against me , without moving.
