CHAPTER 64— I'M SORRY

Author: Gaydar
last update Last Updated: 2022-04-20 23:21:30

Zheme set the pancakes and the syrup on the wooden table, a blatant frown on his lips, a tenuous pain in his heart and the sad look that had been on Lexie's face haunting his mind.

Her eyes had held so much pain, but her expression was what depicted her augmenting lugubriousness, the tears that left her eyes, the cries of hurt that left her lips...Zheme saw and heard them all, but all he could do was ignore them when he really wanted to just...just hold her.

She had looked so vulnerable, so hurt and yet all Zheme could do was bestow upon her, more pain, more sadness, more of everything she obviously didn't want. 

If she really hadn't hated him before, then she must hate him now. After all, he had broken a promise that even he never dreamt of breaking, but alas, what is done is done, he can never reverse time, but maybe he can make up for making such a terrible mistake by leading her on a path of happiness when

    Zheme sat her in his lap by the table, pulling the dish closer. "Here Kitten, eat."With tears in her heart, Lexie took ahold of her fork and started doing just what she had been told... She ate and when she was done, she turned to look at him, eyes still red and not withholding anything but the pain of his betrayal. "I'm full."Zheme nodded at that, lifting her and taking her up the flight of stairs to their shared bedroom. "I already ran you a bath." He sat her on his right knee, using his now free hand to twist the knob and push the door open. "Take a shower and I'll be waiting for you on the bed."He placed her on her feet on the bathroom floor and watched as she staggered further inside without uttering a word. This wasn't his Lexie, his Lexie had never been this quiet and this obedient before, his Lexie had never looked at him with such eyes before, but maybe it was because she —his Lexie— had never been this hurt before.Her pain was almost tan

    Lexie forced herself to swallow the last piece of chicken on her plate, then glared up at Zheme who was currently washing his dish. His back was turned to her, broad shoulders shifting along with every movement of his hands.Three days had passed since he had locked her in the dungeon, and oh, how she wished she could just stab him in the neck, or in the side, or better yet in the head, after all, thats where his sickness was...in his damn head.Since breakfast, he kept ordering her around, kept demanding control and Lexie just wanted to shove something down his throat. He had taken enough from her, her trust, her heart and now he wanted her submission. He'd get submission alright, but only until Lexie found out how to screw off those bars off of those damn windows."Lexie, bring your plate."Lexie's glare intensified, he didn't even ask if she was finished with it, but either way, Lexie rose out of her chair, grabbed her plate and brought it to him.

    Zheme gained consciousness as soon as Lexie's knee connected with his stomach. His eyes found her sleeping form and in disbelief, he shook his head. Every morning she'd kick or hit him somewhere, involuntarily waking him out of his sleep while she still slept peacefully and it wasn't fair, he liked sleep too. With a groan, he sat up in bed, now noting that the sun had rose, filtering through his curtains without his permission and audaciously illuminating his room. Though it was beautiful, he wasn't ready yet, not for morning that had already swept across the land and he wasn't ready, not when it came on to facing his father. He wasn't sure what the future holds, but he was adamant on trying, just like his mother did. If he failed, then he failed and if he succeeded then perhaps happiness would finally be his. Shuffling to the edge of the bed, he hopped off, trudging to the bathroom where he

    "She's pregnant."Pregnant..?Zheme's eyes widened, face supporting a dumbfounded look. "Pregnant...?"The doctor nodded, shoving his hands in the pocket of his coat. "She's two weeks pregnant, thus the starting of morning sickness, isn't that happy news?""Happy news? How could this be happy news when I'm pregnant for him of all persons?""For me of all persons?" Zheme looked over at Lexie who sat on the hospital bed, a hurt look crossing his face. "What's wrong with me?""You're a...a..." She groaned, palm clinging to her still aching head. "Never mind."Zheme frowned. "I think I have the right to know.""But I don't have to tell you.""You do.""I don't and I won't, so j-"The doctor stepped between them, face blank. "Sorry for intruding, but there are other patients in need of my help." He offered Lexie a seal bottle of pills. "Here, take them in the morning before you eat, they're

    Lexie sat in the living room, eyes tranfixed on Dan who watched her with blatant curiosity.Zheme had just dropped her off and without even clarifying if she's okay or not, he left. But too bad, Lexie would use this to her advantage. Dan was here now after all, he could help her, he had promised to, so why not grasp the chance when its in the midst of her palm?Clearing her throat, she opted to talk, however Dan spoke before her. "Did you manage? To change him I mean."Lexie shook her head. "No and that's why...that's why I want your help. You can still help me right?"Dan nodded his head, clasping his frail hands in his lap. "Of course girl, I told you I would and I had warned you that you wouldn't be able to change him, those rules were engraved in his head since he was 9, how could you possibly erase them?"Lexie shrugged, eyes becoming watery. "I don't know, I just thought...I thought...I thought he'd keep his promise, I thought I cou

    With a dense pain in her heart, Lexie sat in the back of the driving car.She was finally away from that house, that prison, that cage, she was finally free, but why instead of being happy, she felt sad?Why instead of felicity, there was a heavy weight of lugubriousness resting atop of her heart?Why?Was it because she broke two of her promises in just one day?The first- to change him before she ever thought of leaving and the second, to stay with him...forever.Or perhaps it was because she was leaving without a part of her intact.Her heart...The organ still only beats for him, the damn thing still cared for him even after all he did to her...why?Lexie couldn't understand, she wanted to hate him, she wanted to hate him so bad, but she just couldn't and that made the pain of his betrayal all the more heartbreaking.Sighing, the soft palm of her hand caressed her stomach.

    As Zheme drove, he couldn't help but look back at the hiccuping girl, her eyes were downcast, hands clasped in her lap. She looked pitiful, sad, scared and it was all because of him, because of what he did to her.Back then while doing it, he felt no regret, but now since his actions induced such fear within her, he was lost in an ocean of lamentation.He shouldn't have broken his promise, he shouldn't have slapped her, instead he should have found another way to protect her, should've known that standing up to his father was the only way out. But because of his incompetence, she couldn't even look him in the eye and that fact tore through his heart.Sighing, his fingers wrapped tighter around the steering wheel, eyes straying from her vulnerable form as he grumbled out a subdued... "Lexie..."Lexie's eyes darted up, lips trembling as another sob broke through. "Y-yes.""Why did you have to do it? Couldn't you have been a bit more patient

    "Kellen, come here!"The five year old boy looked over at his mother, eyes sharp. "No, I told you, I want this." He pointed to the pack of Oreos on the shelf. "And I'm not leaving this supermarket without it."Lexie shrugged, grasping the handle of her trolley. "Alright then, stay here then. I'd be happy to leave a naughty boy like you behind."Kellen's lips curled into a frown, eyes becoming glossy. "But momm—""My answer's final Kellen, you're not getting it."Lexie shoved the trolley pass her son, leaving him to stare watery at her back. He sighed, rubbing his hands in his jeans as his eyes darted over to his father who stood beside him. "Daddy...?"Zheme looked down at him then at the pack of Oreos. "Mommy said you're not getting it." He informed, watching as his boy groaned out in frustration before speaking again. "But daddy didn't say so did he?"Kellen's frown stretched its way into a grin when his father grabbed

    "Push!"With a loud groan, Lexie did as told, tears running like a river down her cheeks.It hurts, the pain was more than just prominent, so immense that it had her weak legs shaking. She didn't know what to do, all she was told was to push whenever she felt a contraction, but that was hard considering the relentless pain each contraction brought along with it.She tried though, she was trying so hard for her baby boy. What if something happens to him?He was premature and that fact only proved to worry her more, for premature babies were sometimes born with a disability. She didn't want that for her child, she wanted him healthy and fit, though if he was born with a disability, she'd love him the same.A sudden cry edged her lips when another contraction was bestowed upon her, each lasted a minute and this time, she'd use the minute well. She pushed; hard, hands clutching the sheets, teeth gritted.She could feel it, the head j

    Lexie's eyes fluttered open, bringing her out of a world of darkness and into one of light.She had fallen asleep on the couch last night, eating ice cream and watching 'friends'. But it seems even after complaining that he wouldn't, Zheme had lifted her and brought her here.Such a sweetheart he was, the perfect husband and yet everyday she found something new to taunt him with.Yesterday, she had taken his slippers, knowing well enough that hers were too small to fit him and today, she was going to confiscate his computer or rather hide it.With an evil smile, she threw his arm from around her protruding stomach and shuffled off of the bed. His computer was kept in his office when it wasn't in use and that's exactly where her steps took her.She twisted the door knob, wasting no time to push the big, rectangular board open and as she stepped inside, her eyes sought for it.On his desk, she found it, seated perfectly amongst mul

    Lexie padded to the couch and with a heavy sigh, she took a seat beside Zheme. After the marriage, they had started off clean, the past was put behind them and what laid before them now was the present and the future.They had left the house behind too and had moved to a different one, one more modern and one in which they've already started their new life.Lexie was almost eight months pregnant now, her stomach blown as big as a floating balloon and Zheme only made matters worst by constantly calling her a pig. Not because she was fat, but because she ate a lot. Around the clock she'd be stuffing her face and when she wasn't doing that, she was either tormenting Zheme or painting.Now though was one of the times she felt the need to perplex her husband. He had been doing office work since morning and though he still looked after her, Lexie wanted to feel more important than the computer that sat in his lap.So she hauled the thing from him, placi

    Lexie wiped at her eyes, crawling closer to him until her head rested against his shoulder. "I just want you. I'm sorry, I won't do it again, just... Just please hold me...please."Sighing again, Zheme leaned away from her. This girl truly knew what to do to drive a nail in a man's heart.She made him feel guilty, but her plead for him made his thick length even harder. He wanted her too, so god damn much. He could feel the desperation, the immensity of his need and it wouldn't hurt to finally feed his desire.Without much thought, a finger of his slithered its way under her chin, steadying her face so that her teary eyes resided on him. "I'll hold you Kitten, just promise not to do that again, you should be patient, don't I always satisfy you in the end?"Lexie nodded. "Yes, always but are you going to do that now? Satisfy me.""Only if you promise to sometimes wait."Lexie held up her pinky, handing it to Zheme. "I promise."

    "Entertain...?" Lexie questioned, following Zheme up the unfamiliar wooden stairs. "What do you mean by entertain?" "I mean..." Zheme sighed. "You're going to show me exactly what you do in the mornings while I'm asleep."Lexie fumbled with her fingers, eyes watching as he opened up the door to the bedroom. "I can't...I can't possibly show you that, it'd be mortifying.""Then...I can't forgive you either." He stepped into the room, eyes scanning the creativity that laid inside.The room wasn't big but it had all the essentials: a king sized bed decorated with fine sheets and seemingly soft pillows, a nightstand upholding a stylish lamp and decorative items and a built in dresser with a flat screen TV on top and an arm chair beneath it.It also had double doors that lead to a balcony that issued a marvelous view of the sea and a seemingly comfortable couch in the far corner of the room.Zheme grabbed the armchair from beneath the

    "I can't believe you glared at every single thing that moved at the reception."Zheme's grip on the steering wheel tightened, eyes fixated on the fairly dark road. "I told you I didn't want to go, didn't I?""Well yes, but that doesn't give you the right to scare my friends away, you even gave Mark a middle finger!""He should be lucky that that's all he got, I really wanted to punch his damn face in. Who invited him anyway?""I did." Lexie informed."Well in that case, you're the one that deserves this." His left hand loosened the wheels as he issued Lexie a middle finger. "Pocket it nicely.""Pocket it?" Lexie demanded, grabbing at his hand. "How about I do this instead?" From between her lips, her tongue slithered out, slowly circling his finger. "Isn't that much better?"Zheme yanked his hand away from her, wide eyes leaving the road to stare at her. "Did you just...? Why in heaven's name would you lick my finger Lex

    "Zheme Mardruk Algae, do you take Lexie Shay Dillon for your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"Zheme nodded without a doubt. "I do.""Lexie Shay Dillon, do you take Zheme Mardruk Algae for your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"Lexie looked towards Zheme, hands nervously squeezing his. "I...I do.""You have declared your consent to the church." The priest clasped both his hands behind his back, a pleasant yet hardly noticeable smile on his lips. "You may now kiss the bride."Zheme was the first to lean in, plump lips crashing onto Lexie's with a gentle passion.Her lips were as soft and as moist as ever and just like Zheme's they moved with a slow and delicate tendency.At thi

    Zheme stood with all the confidence he could muster on top of the podium's spotlessly polished floors. He was still nervous, abashment settling under both his tiring feet.He could hear the music drifting like the wind to his ears, the melodic piano that flawlessly played 'here comes the bride...'He could see the many people in crowd, the chandelier, the flowers, he saw them all, but what or rather who he really wanted to see was Lexie.The only woman in this building that could light up a dark room with nothing but her beauty.She was like a candle amongst the darkness, the sun infiltrating the very sky, she was his light, his forever, HIS BRIDE.After today, he'd cherish her like a gem and like an unhidden treasure; he'd keep her close, just to make sure no one had the audacity to steal her. He'd love her with dignity and never again would he break his promises.Both of them...He'd never lay a finger on her again.
