It's been weeks since Kenny and I decided to hold off on having a baby. There hasn't been any sex between us and my body has been given a much needed -break. So far Kenny has stuck to his promise and I've been having trouble trying not to feel terrible. Not only am I anxious and stressed that he might find out the truth, but I'm so scared as to what will happen after this month is up. Maybe I'll come to the decision that I do want to have a child with Kenny. I mean what else is there for me to do?
Life has continued as if we have never tried to conceive in the first place. Kenny is off to work at the police station and I regularly take on other clients. My occupation has been like my art in a way.A way for me to escape my home life as it's been less stressful. Many times I have wanted to stay at work longer to help my clients through their lives. However, I have to be the wife Kenny deserved which didn't include working late nights. I had to work hard, come home before he did to clean, cook a homemade meal, and satisfy him before bed. My days never switched up, it was always the same cycle. I know nothing else. Somethings I wonder how I'm capable of helping people deal with their problems when I can't solve my own. And yet, I'll stop….hopefully.At one point our marriage wasn't as estranged as it is now. We were hopelessly in love with one another which hasn't exactly changed. Yet I can't help but feel disconnected. Somewhere I went wrong and haven't been able to fix whatever happened. I mean yes, lying about wanting a baby is awful. But that's not where it began. I still love my husband dearly and would do anything for him but some part of me is rejecting the idea of having his child.A sigh escaped my lips as I pondered on my thoughts. I was supposed to be relaxing, not thinking of things that I shouldn't. I thought soaking in a hot bath would ease my mind, but it hasn't done much. Not only did it fail in distracting me, but unknowingly the water had begun to turn cold. Sitting up from my laid-back position I used one of my hands to lift the drain so I could get rid of some water. It was a Friday afternoon and I was off while Kenny was called in to work a shift. He usually has off on Fridays as well as I do, but according to his chief, they were swamped. I thought we could have, I say to ourselves, but Kenny insisted that we needed more money. I couldn't complain much as I enjoyed time to myself, however, I forgot that whenever I'm alone, my thoughts become depressing.Seeing that the water was at a low level, I pulled up the drain and used my hand to turn up the knob for hot water. On the right side of the tub, I grabbed a bottle of Shea oil and poured a little into the tub. I loved the smell of it and how smooth it made my rich skin feel. I poured a tiny bit into my hand before placing it back where it was. Using both hands, I rubbed the oil together and carefully began to oil my neck. Smoothing the oil on my skin being attentive so as to not put any on my shoulder-length locs. Another sigh escaped from me as I slowly rubbed some tension away. I didn't want to think about anything else anymore, I just wanted to relax. It would have felt better if there were larger and calloused hands giving me a massage.I lowered my hands to my shoulders as I closed my eyes. Envisioning things that I shouldn't. Couldn't, but my mind did not want to stop. The presence of a man behind my back as I sat in the tub, my head falling back against his imaginary shoulder. Getting rid of my worries by gently rubbing my shoulders eventually lowering his hands to my collarbone. Then onto my breast before palming my dark nipples. A quiet moan escaped me as my hands followed what the man did in my mind. It wasn't difficult for me to get turned on envisioning my fantasy. After going so long without feeling pleasure, I sometimes feel more lustful. I know it's wrong to dream or even think of a mystery man instead of my husband, but some days it couldn't be helped. It wasn't that I dreamt of being with anyone else, but Kenny hasn't recently been giving me what my body craved. Trying not to feel ashamed as I felt my pleasure build-up due to being over-sensitive when it comes to my nipples. I continued to please myself until the water ran cold.I placed a plate of hot food and a bottle of wine on the table before calling Kenny to come down to eat. The sound of his heavy footsteps reached my ear as I dabbled in the kitchen. Cleaning up my mess and then getting my own plate ready. A plate of food that was specifically less than Kenny of course. Just as I settled I brought my plate to the dining table and sat across from him."No beer?" He questioned, and I shook my head."No, we ran out yesterday and I forgot to get some," I told him to which he just grunted. I watched him take the first bite of his food before I took my own. In a weird way. I wanted to see if he enjoyed it. To my disappointment, he didn't comment on the food and we sat in silence. Him sipping his wine between bites of his food while I felt my mood dampen. Although I wasn't finished with my food, once I saw he was done with his I got up. I took his and my plate to the kitchen. I threw the scrap of food I had on my plate in the trash and began doing the dishes. There wasn't much to think about how Kenny was acting. He was a bit quiet, well he's been quiet all week. I wasn't afraid of him or anything, just worried. Nowadays I couldn't read him or know what he was going to do. How does a woman not know her husband?"Rose" snapping out of my thoughts I jolted. I put the clean dishes away and made my way to the dining table. Kenny had yet to move and was looking at his phone."Yes?" I answered."I want to take us out to eat tomorrow morning." He said, and I was a bit shocked. Though I try to hide it. We haven't eaten out in god knows how long. He continuing he spoke. "A coworker told me of some sort of cafe down by your job. He said they have great food and service.""That's nice. I would love to get breakfast-"He stood up, "great. I'm tired. Let'sgo to bed." I nodded, albeit excitedly, and followed him upstairs. Things are starting to change, I guess. I wondered what the place was called. Although it's near my job, I haven't really gone anywhere outside of our home. We had stopped going out a long time ago, but Kenny suggested something different tomorrow. I can't help but feel a little happy. Shoot, I have no idea of what to wear tomorrow. Maybe I should dress differently and spice things up.Yeah, something different.For as long as I could remember, I had always been alone. No parents, no siblings and no family. Although I was put in a harsh system, I was one of the lucky few who did experience anything trumatic. I only wonder why I had to grow up with other children who didn't have families. Some I made friends with, others I never had a chance to. Once I hit eighteen, they left me to fund for myself. Due to high grades and scholarship opportunities, I had no choice but to go to college. At least I will have a roof over my head. I couldn't say the same for other orphans who didn't have my luck.Although I was able to build a life for myself, I struggled. As an orphan, I didn't have as much of an education as other children. When it came to college, I had to take the most basic of classes which cost money I didn't have. Not only was I suffering financially, but I was also street about keeping my scholarship, my grades were beginning to tank, and I was anxious. Then with a job I managed to get with
Without noticing, we arrived home. I unbuckled the seatbelt and followed Kenny into the house. Once inside, he placed his key on the hook beside the door and walked upstairs. I stood in the hallway for a few minutes, lost on what to do. Eventually, I gained the courage to walk upstairs into our bedroom. I heard the shower running in the bathroom. I sigh, taking off my shoes and placing them in the closet. Then I went back into the room and sat down on the bed. Waiting for him to finish.As soon as he did, he opened the door not minding his nakedness. He made his way to the closet, ignoring me completely, causing my heart to sink. I sat there patiently as I heard him shuffling around. At least, he came out still naked but with clothes in his hands. He made his way to our bed and sat down, still ignoring me. Taking this as an opportunity to apologize, I made my way behind him. Drop of water from his shower still glistened on his dark skin.I reached a hand out to touch his back softly b
"I need to borrow your car." Blinking my eyes against the sunlight and slipping in the room. Kenny's voice startled me from my peaceful sleep. I saw him move around the house swiftly, in a hurry dressed in his Police uniform. "The damn truck down now I'm running late." He explained. Sitting up, I rubbed my eyes to wake myself up. It's ok with Kenny taking my car but….."If you take my car, how will I get to work?" I asked, my voice raspy from sleep."You have to go in at about twelve right, I nodded. "Alright, I just dropped you off during my lunch break. Then I will pick you up after I get off work." It wasn't the best idea because Kenny tends to stay late at his job. But I didn't feel like arguing today and I was still extremely tired.I had a long day yesterday, looking over my patients files, cleaning the house, and trying to keep my thoughts occupied. It has been a few days since the incident at the restaurant-well, it was hardly an incident. Still it had been a while. Kenny and
He was late.He was late, storm clouds began to roll in, I was hungry, and I had a migraine_ four bad combinations of a woman who's having a rough day. I'm not sure what I expected, but it wasn't this. I had to find shelter seeing as my building closed about an hour ago. I had called Kenny about a million times to which I received no answer. I called Rick and his phone went straight to voicemail. Lastly, I restored to calling a cab and an Uber and both were unavailable. How shitty is my luck.I stayed at my work as long as I possibly could, but all the workers had to leave at some point and lock it. And it seems nobody lived where I did or had no car. And if they did, no one wanted a chance of getting stuck since there was a storm underway. Again, how shitty is my luck? I couldn't stand out on the curb all night and get caught in a rainstorm so I decided to try and find shelter. Still mindful of the fact that I'm wearing heels due to my feet aching. I was honestly scared to be out alo
It's been at least two hours and the storm showed no sign of stopping. Nick and I were casually drinking coffee, but we had moved a table in front of the fireplace. We now sat across from each other playing a card game. "Uno Out!" I dance a little in my seat after slapping down my last card. Nick sucked his teeth and put his card down. I had to say, he was horrible at the game. I had won five times in a row and my ego was rising with each win. Nonetheless, Nick held a smile on his face as he watched me shimmy in excitement."What is with you saying Uno out when winning?" He asked with a chuckle. "You just say Uno when you have your last card.""No no no, Mister! It's Uno and then it's Uno out so your opponent feels even more defeated." I told him, grinning."Well, consider me beat," We laughed and it felt good. I hadn't had this much fun in a long time. Not with friends or my husband, yet I was enjoying the company of a stranger. We had talked to one another for a while about the cr
Nicolaus.Water pelting down my body from the shower I was under. My hips stuttered as my left hand gripped my Cock firmly. While my right lay flat on the wall to hold me steady as I pumped myself continuously. The image of the magnificent woman named. Rose caused my body to shudder in pleasure. Her curved, but lithe figure and smooth, brown skin. The light of her slender brown eyes and her irresistible smile beamed with radiance. Her beautiful dreadlocks that I wanted to grip in my hands as I missed her luscious lips. The memory of her seeped into my brain.The way my heart thumped loudly inside my chest when I saw her. The electricity I felt when our eyes connected at the restaurant. The lilting sound of her voice when she spoke the first time. I was mad at myself for days, for not asking for the woman's name. I couldn't believe I was feeling this way towards a stranger. A pretty stranger.Then somehow I saw her again, banging on the door. To say I was shocked would be understatemen
I had five days.Five days until Kenny and I went to see a fertility specialist. I had heard Kenny scheduled an appointment a week ago. To say I was freaking out was an understatement. The thought of going to the appointment had my heart racing. Then my racing heart would trigger small panic attacks. Luckily, most occurred when Kenny wasn't home. They mainly happened when I had nothing to do except listen to my thoughts. I hardly slept and ate less than I usually did out of anxiety. I was trying to remain calm and happy on the outside. But inside of me, I felt uneasy and, albeit, guilty.I spent most of my thoughts thinking about having a child with Kenny. Whether he would find out about my secret stash of plan B pills, or he would find out I cheated by kissing a stranger. He would only know if he suspected something or found the note Nicholas had given me. The note I carried with me, everywhere. As foolish as it sounds, I had nowhere else to put it. I wanted to call him, but at the s
"Pretty stranger" His voice was like a slik. Easily liquifying me. "You look stunning." Just from inhaling his intoxicating scent and hearing the word that came out from his mouth, I only had one thought. How could we just be friends? I stood up abruptly, causing him to take a step back. The top of my head barley reach his collarbone. I was face to face with his seemingly ripped chest that was covered by his shirt. Swallowing harshly, it took everything in me to pull my gaze away."I-think this was a mistake, "I told him, wrangling my hands nervously. The smile fell from his face, and I mentally punched myself in the gut. I'm an awful woman for taking away his smile."Did I say something wrong?' his tone dipped with concern. I shook my head. Shaking no, and then nodding yes, and then no again. "Rose, you're giving me mixed signals here."I'm sorry I blurted out. "I-I-I'm just nervous. You make me nervous. "I said, taking a peek at him through my lashes before looking down on my hands
