002

Lisa stood in shock as she watched Rosy sit on Alex's laps with her head resting on his chest and Alex, on the other hand, seems to be enjoying stroking Rosy's hair as they both engaged in a compassionate conversation. They both did not notice her presence which fuel her anger the more!

Lisa felt like she was going to be sick. She had thought she was prepared for whatever Rosy had to say, but seeing this was too much. She couldn't believe that Alex would betray her like this, that he would be so cruel. Even if he's always been a jerk who doesn't care about anything else except himself, isn't he supposed to respect the fact that he's married? No?

As if what Lisa had saw few moment ago wasn't enough, Rosy kissed Alex's jaw lightly after a small and in return, he grabbed her face and kissed her on lips. They were so engrossed in their shameless activity, clearly not bothered by the thought of someone walking in on them.

She wondered how much shameless they would go in a such a place like this. Infuriated, she banged the door angrily, attracting their attention to herself. Her eyes were red with fury as she stared at them like a bull ready to charge at it unfortunate prey!

"How could you?" She said, her voice shaking with emotion. "How could you do this to me? How much shameless can a married man like you go? Did you not respect me enough as your wife —even if you don't love me?"

Alex looked at Lisa with a mixture of anger and fury. He clearly hadn't been expecting her to walk in on him and Rosy and now thinking of how she had abruptly cut of his enjoyable leisure time with Rosy, Alex was overwhelmed with annoyance.

"Did you not learn how to knock and respect people's privacy?" He asked with a glint of anger in his eyes, growling at her. "How dare you step a foot in my office and ruin everything?"

The fact that Alex did find no fault in his act was more than infuriating for Lisa, she couldn't even bear the amount of emotion that washed over her at the moment. How dare he think he can just do as he wished and trampled on her feelings like this?

"I don't care what you think, Alex." Lisa said, her voice shaking with anger. "But I'm not going to sit back and let you treat me like this. I can put up with whatever shitty behaviour you possess but this one —it's a big no, I can't accept it!"

"You care if you accept it or not, eh? Do I look like I care about whatever might be going on with you?" He fired at her, his facial expression void with no traces of emotion in it. "Whatever you do with your life, I don't give a damn but I won't tolerate it from you if you ever ruin my precious moment."

"How cheap can you be, Alex?" It was probably not a question that needed an answer. "Pervert and jerks like you would only want a skinny slut like her. You have bad taste, Alex, seeing you getting heads over heels with this cheap homewrecker who deserve no good place than a dump site!"

"That's enough!" Alex snapped, his voice thunderous. "You're out of line, and I won't tolerate this kind of behavior from you. I've been patient, but I'm done putting up with your antics."

"You're the one who's been out of line!" Lisa shot back, her anger simmering. "You're the one who's been disrespecting me and making me feel worthless. I'm done putting up with that, too —damn you and your homewrecker slutty chick."

Rosy couldn't be more happier as she watch them exchange words but the fact that Lisa keep cursing at her was what she can't stand. With out a warning, Rosy charged at Lisa and landed a hot deafening slap on her face.

"Who do you dare call a slut, eh?" Rosy blurted out, breathing heavily in anger. "Bitch like you mist have thought they own everything after forcing a marriage on rich guys, isn't it?"

Lisa pride was badly bruised, how dare Rosy slap her and say those words to her face? Overwhelmed with annoyance, Lisa proceed to slap her back but Alex was quick enough to interrupt the moment, seizing Lisa's hand right before it hit Rosy's face and pushed her away afterward without thinking twice about it.

"Don't you dare lay a finger on her unless you want to watch me ruin your entire existence completely!" Alex threatened, a low grunt escaping his throat. "You lay a finger on my woman and see what becomes of you!"

Lisa was taken aback by Alex's threat, and she took a step back, her face pale. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Your woman?" She said, her voice barely above a whisper. "But I'm your wife!"

"Not anymore." Alex said, his eyes hard. "I'm way off better with Rosy than spend the rest of my life with you, woman. I'm tired of this farce of a marriage."

The words hit Lisa like a slap in the face. She felt like she couldn't breathe, like the world was crashing down around her —she couldn't believe that it had come to this. Heartbroken, she rushed out of the room, running as fast as her legs could carry her but that doesn't stop her from hearing Rosy's mocking laughter in her head.

***

Lisa ran as fast as she could, not caring where she was going, just wanting to get away from Alex and Rosy. She felt like she was suffocating, like the walls were closing in on her. She needed to get out of there, she needed to breathe.

She ran until her legs gave out and she collapsed on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably. It was all too much, the betrayal, the heartbreak, the pain. She felt like her life was falling apart, and she didn't know how to put the pieces back together.

Her nostrils won't stop running and she wiped her nose occasionally with her left hand, her eyes were bloodshot red with hot tears streaming down her face. Hesitantly, she brought out wipes from her purse and wiped her mess —her teary face inclusive.

Lisa did not oppressed the emotions with in, she felt she needed to let them out after months of bottling them up with in her. "Fuck Alex! Fuck Rosy! Fuck marriage!" She yelled out, not minding her surrounding and breathing a relief sigh afterward.

Her crying must have been good because at that moment, Lisa felt as though she has lifted a heavy weight that has been chaining her down from her shoulders as well as her heart. With that new feeling, she realized she needed to make a decision —the type that would completely lift the burden forever!

"I'll file a divorce tomorrow morning." She concluded within herself. "The earlier I realize my stay and every other thing is over with Alex, the better for me. I'm ending this sickening marriage tomorrow...!"
