ฮูหยินไร้ศักดิ์ ยอดรักแม่ทัพไร้พ่าย!

Susie checked the time on her platinum wristwatch. He is late. Again. The kettle chimed, she wore her kitchen gloves, and removed the kettle and started pouring the water in it into little childish plastic cups with Spiderman logo on it. She added chocolate by the side and some sweets to compliment everything. Perfect. She decided to relax on the stool in her large kitchen furnished with exotic drinks, kid toys on one side of the kitchen, expensive plates and cups arranged neatly in cabinets. The walls were painted white with the tiles and table white also. The style of the kitchen showed how impeccable Susie's taste of fashion was. Her phone beeped and she checked the message,

My sweet husband: "I have an urgent work to do, I'll be late again. Wish James a happy birthday for me."

She sighed. A young boy rushed in, holding a toy dinosaur in his hand. His face was covered with chocolate, his birthday suit turning from white to brown,

" Mommy come and play with us." Susie smiled and kissed his forehead, the boy looked around as if he is looking for something, a frown then came on his face,

" Mom, what about Daddy? Isn't he coming too?" She paused. Her lips twitched as she thought of a lie to say to him,

" Well actually James, your dad has lots of work to do so he might not be able to to...."

" it's okay mom. " James said, feeling a bit happy, Susie was confused.

" Dad is never around anyway, even my first birthday, my second birthday, my third..." 

"Yes, I know." Susie said.

" So I don't expect him to be around for my sixth birthday anyway." James said, silently playing with his toy. Susie pondered on what her son just said. He didn't feel sad at all. She shook the thought from her mind and carried the tray of hot cocoa and chocolate she had prepared for the children and turned to him,

" Come on birthday boy, let's go and have some fun."

Ms. Penelope sniffed the air," Ah, the smell of youth." She sat beside Susie in the parent section as she swatched as the children were busy playing with each other, building sandcastles, swimming in the pool and munching on sweets. It was a beach themed birthday party and the parents were given a hammock each to relax in while receiving a massage,

" How I wish I married your husband Susie, I would be enjoying like how you are." She moaned as her back was being massaged. Susie smiled at that statement," I pray you don't Elsa. Everyday we become more distant from each other as his job requires him to travel a lot." She said. She then remembered what her son had said. Elsa looked at her and sighed," He's not coming today, is he?" 

" No." Susie said.She gestured the waiters to leave while Elsa and her werw left alone.

" I haven't spoken to him for over a month now. He doesn't even pick my calls or call back." 

Susie sat up, feeling more relaxed as before, her voice still feeling stressed.

" Do you think...he has someone outside...." 

" No way Susie." Elsa shot back. She looked more serious and annoyed.

" Don't think like that please, be positive." Just then, Susie's phone beeped. She picked it up and saw a video sent from an unknown number:

" I think you should see this." She clicked on it...

The air in the room was thick-silent just moments before now it was lively. She gasped in shock as she watched the video play. Elsa, noticed the expression in her friends face, 

" What is it." Susie showed her the video, tears in her eyes....

Later in the evening:

A knock came on the door and a tall handsome British man walked in, wearing a black custom made suit with expensive shoes. Judging from his appearance, had a long day.

 He leaned towards Susie, his cheek faced towards her, expecting a kiss, but nothing happened. Thinking that she must be in a bad mood, he left her and went to the bedroom to have a shower. He came out, with the towel covering only the lower side of his body, his muscles showing;

"You missed your son's birthday today ." Susie said. The inside of her body was biloiling hot and she wanted to let out all the anger at that moment.

" I was busy, so I sent you a text." He said while wearing his nightgown.

" A text?! Jonathan can you even hear yourself? I called you several times.You never talk to me!" Susie's voice sliced through the quiet, raw and sharp. "All you care about is yourself. Your job, your friends, your damn phone-I'm just background noise!"

Jonathan stepped forward, his eyes narrowed, fists clenched at his sides. "That's rich coming from you! You twist everything I say. God forbid I breathe without you finding a way to be offended."

She scoffed, bitterly. "Because everything you say is cruel, Jonathan. You ignore me, make me feel like I'm losing my mind. I see it now."

"Oh, here we go," he snapped. "The victim act. Again. Maybe if you weren't so obsessed with control, we'd actually be happy!"

Susie's voice cracked as she shouted, "Control? You mean begging for basic respect is control? I gave up so much for this relationship, my life, my family, God damn it Jonathan i quit my job for this marriage, what did you give up, Jonathan? What did you ever give up?"

The words hung in the room like smoke after a fire, choking and irreversible.

He looked away for a moment, jaw tight, before whispering, "Maybe this was a mistake."

Silence followed. Not peaceful-just the kind that happens when two people realize something might be broken beyond repair.

"What mistake?" Susie said almost aback. She was expecting this, his behavior after marriage have been nothing less than toxic. She dreaded the day that the divorce papers will be signed so that she can live her own life, with her son, free from bondage.

" Getting married to you." Jonathan paused, then stared at her, their eyes met,

" You are the greatest mistake I ever made." Susie was almost in tears,but she still maintained her ground, although feeling a bit weak,

" ... Did you realize this before or after you slept with her...." Her words we're stopped by a slap in the face from Jonathan. She staggered, trying to regain herself, she clutched her swollen cheek and with teary eyes, faced him. His face changed to red, veins appearing on his face, but Ausoe didn't stop.

" You slept with my sister , Jonathan. You betrayed me." She said with bitterness in her heart. Her heart was beating faster than usual.

" How dare you." He dragged her from her hair and tossed her to the other side of the room. Susie screamed for help but that's when he carried a bottle and hit it on her head. She fell to the ground, but Jonathan dragged her up, her body feeling almost lifeless, and tried to strangle her.

" Jonathan stop!" Susie screamed.

" Daddy no...." The voice of a traumatized young boy, James, her son echoed through her ears.

 There was blood everywhere...on Susie. She staggered backwards, hands shaking, as she looked at her chest, blood spilling out, staining the once blue ball gown. Jonathan, later realising what he had done, ran away,and dropped the knife. He left Susie in pain and her son, James in sorrow. Susie just couldn't believe it, as she lay downtown her back, hands still grasping the wounded area, she reasoned why she had fallen in love with such a man, she wished she had the

chance to start all over again. She started coughing out blood; her son, James rushed to her with a pack of tissue from the bathroom and started using it to clean the blood,

" Don't worry mom, you'll be fine. I just need to put all your blood back right?!..." James said, tears in his eyes. She couldn't speak anymore, she was already becoming weak, but trying to still keep her eyes open. She grasped her son and kept his two little hands in her hers and kissed it;

" Mommy's going to be fine okay?" She said, until she closed her eyes. She could feel someone shaking her body and a childish voice saying " Don't go mom...no...Help! Somebody help!...." The echoes of that voice kept on going until she heard the sound of a siren....
