Married For 30 Days
Unfortunately, my mother went before my father, the alcoholic whom we all feared.
After dinner, I climbed into bed, tired and exhausted. It was the same bed I’d shared with the love of my life, but which I’ve slept on alone for 3 years since I had Liam.
I touched the side of the bed where the man I loved used to lay and the memories came rushing back.
The tears began to gather again but I wiped it immediately. I wasn't going to let him ruin my sleep, and I would never let any man hurt me the way he did.
