CLAIMED BY MY EX-HUSBAND
He can’t.
I shook my head rapidly as I moved nearer to him using my knees. I know that my appearance was ugly, and I looked desperate, but I didn’t care. All I wanted to do was to hold on to our marriage that was slowly collapsing. To held him tighter. To love him more and be a better wife.
“Love, p-please don’t do this to m-me. I can’t. I can’t l-live without you Black.” It was almost a whisper.
That night, I pleaded. I pleaded for him to love me back. To hold me, to kiss me, to sleep with me, to stay; but he didn’t. That night, he didn’t come back. He left me, alone and broken from his words.
