My Wife is His Wife
"How could she hit you so hard? And you just stood there and watched, Jesse. Have you forgotten Sinead is your wife?"
I was already a little upset. "She has already married someone else with your approval. Have you forgotten that?"
Sinead's mother choked on her words and fell silent.
After a while, she spoke again. "But that wasn't real. It was only an act. You're the only one taking it seriously."
I rolled my eyes. They had all treated those solemn wedding vows as an act, but I couldn't. In fact, I found it filthy. Besides, it had been five years, and they had never told me about Zachary.
