MY HUSBAND'S SECOND WIFE
"You are a good woman, Steph. But I'm sorry, I love Etta now. It happens! So, why don't you just move on and let me have my peace?"
She couldn't stomach his words, so they just got stuck in her throat and silently choked her. He was never going to change his mind. How could she be so stupid to have hoped? She had cried and hit him the last few times they met, still, he didn't change his mind. His decision was final. It was obvious he was really going to have a second wife.
She bobbed her head and walked into the house, returning shortly with a pen and the divorce papers in her hands.
