ISABELLA

I had expected him to try throwing a tantrum or gaslighting, just as he had always done, but he didn't say anything. He chewed on his food, ensuring we never exchanged eye contact or touched.

“I brought you here for a reason,” he said,

I waited for him to continue.

Seeing that I had nothing to say to that, he continued, “we need to come up with a way that our marriage can work.”

“I think we've gone far past that level,” I admitted. “This sham of a marriage can never be fixed, and it's not my fault.”

“I never said any of this was your fault.”

“Good.”

“Can you calm down so we can settle this?”

I waited for him to pitch his not-so-brilliant idea.

“I am proposing an open marriage.”

My lashes flicked hard. “What did you say?”

“We need to try an open marriage.” He repeated, “we both know that I can't be in a committed marriage with you.”

“Because of her,”

“Yes.” He agreed. “Emma will always be in the picture. As long as she is alive, I can't love another person.”

Hm. So, Emma being

  • His sidepiece    THE END.

    EMMA“You know what? Prepare, we are going out for dinner tonight.” I giggled at his words. He was radiating excitement. “You're so excited about this,” I said, again.“Who wouldn't be?” He asked,“Having the best woman in the world bring your child is one of the best gifts life could ever give to me. I feel like we need to plan a more elaborate celebration.” He said,I watched as he moved around.“I'll get a makeup artist, and some designers over. The dinner won't be tonight, it'll be tomorrow. I need to plan this dinner specially. It needs to be a celebration to remember.”I smiled widely at him, “all this for a child that hasn't been born yet?”“Of course.” He exclaimed.THE NEXT DAY.I had been bursting with excitement ever since I got back from my doctor's office. It had been confirmed that I was a three weeks pregnant. The makeup artist had arrived an hour later, alongside the designers.I sat still as they worked professionally, giving me the outlook I had chosen.Samuel had

    EMMASIX MONTHS LATER.I stared at the strip test, not knowing what to think. There were two red lines on it. I wiped my eyes, then looked at it again. Two lines.My attention diverted as I heard footsteps approach the door. A knock followed, and then he spoke, “babe, are you in there?” He asked,I wiped my nose of the snot before answering, “yes,” I replied.“Are you alright?” He asked, again.“Um, yeah.”“Are you sure?”“Yes.“Are you still feeling nauseous? I could get a doctor to come over.”I really wished he would stop pondering with tons of questions, but I knew Samuel enough to know that he wouldn't rest until he was convinced that I was healthy.“I'm fine. I'm actually fine,”“You don't sound fine...but I'll be in the kitchen if you ever need me.”“Thanks,” I curtly replied.My eyes fell back on the strip in my hands. I should have been excited, I should have been jumping with ecstasy, but I didn't know what to feel. I didn't know how to react.I leaned forward, placing my h

    EMMAAs I approached Isabella, she eventually paused then turned around. I watched as she crossed her arms across her chest, “what do you want?” She asked ,with a sneer.“I want to talk,”She chuckled. “You want to talk. After years of ruining my marriage, you want us to talk? What do you want to talk about?” She spat,I pleaded an arm forward. “Please, just calm down. I have left Alex, haven't I?” She hissed, “We know you only left my husband because you found another site to dig your gold.” I sighed, “you have every right to be mad at me, and to have awful thoughts about me.” I continued, she only glared harder, “I just want you to know that I am sorry. I truly am. I have wronged you in many different ways-”“And you'll do it again.” She cut in.I sighed deeply, “no, I won't. I won't do it again, because I'm sorry. I have left Alex.”“Oh, no no no. You can have him. Gone are the days when I wanted him. You can fucking have him. I'm done with him.”I sighed, “fine. For what it's wo

  • His sidepiece    The confession

    EMMA I stared at him in shock. He couldn't be serious, could he?“What do you mean?” I asked, confused.“I already knew.” He repeated,He had a sly smile on his lips. I was too stunned to speak. Could this be a dream? A crazy dream. I blinked twice.How could my mother tell him, and not tell me.He saw the confusion on my face, and began to speak, “I know you're confused, but let me explain. Your mother and I already talked about you before you arrived at manhattan.” He explained, “she always complained about you and Alex and how she wished you would always leave him. When I met you at first, I didn't know you were her daughter, but as time passed, I found out.”“Why didn't you say anything?”“You said you weren't ready to talk about it and I didn't want to force you.”I don't know what to say, “I-I…if you knew, why did you still stay with me?”“I met, and studied you. I realized you were more than just a silly affair. Emma, your affair went viral, there's barely anyone who doesn't

    ISABELLAI watched as Chris's face bent into a frown. I expected him to stand up to Alex, and claim his position, but either he was too chicken or just knew his place, so he stepped back. Alex stood before me, and I ensured I had anything but the slightest of smiles on my face.I watched as he skimmed me from head to toe. “You look…stunning,” he said,I couldn't remember the last time he had looked at me like that, or even looked at me at all.“Are we going to dance, or will you keep gawking at me?” I asked, raising a brow.He took a step back, “let's dance,” he said, stretching forth his hands. I took it, and followed him to the dance floor.The song chosen was a slow, and soulful one. We danced rhythmically, with his hands on my waist, and mine on his shoulders.I took a whiff of bus perfume, and my knees weakened. Alex never played with scent, and that was one of his most attractive attributes. The dance continued, and I silently searched for El through the crowds. It was hard t

    ISABELLA A knock pounded on my door. I knew it could be no one else but him.“Come in,” I said, applying the final touches to my makeup. I knew he wasn't aware that I had changed my mind and would be attending.I listened as the door opened, and he stepped in.“You're coming,” he simply stated,“Yes.” I replied, dropping my lipstick. I stared at my reflection in the mirror, “do you have a problem with that?” I asked, facing him.“No,” he replied, but I could clearly hear the tension in his voice.“What? You don't like that I'll be able to see you stalking her?” I wanted to ask, but I suppressed it. Talking about Emma had gotten me nowhere. It was time to play fair.I picked up my bag. “Can we go now?” I asked,I watched as his eyes fell on my legs. My dress wasn't exactly short, but it held my curves accentuating my look. The dress had an open back, and thin arms, giving way for me to show off my toned skin. My hair was down to my shoulders, and I had red lipstick on.I watched as h
