Hello,Husband,Goodbye Elijah's Favor
What is that?" I inquired."He mentioned to avoid conversing with Marcus unless absolutely necessary or about Marco," he informed.I understood the difficulty of the request, but I agreed to honor it for Elijah. I didn't want anything to jeopardize our relationship. Sitting beside him, I felt a pang of guilt. It would be challenging to avoid Marcus, especially since we had a child together.However, I recognized that Elijah's plea stemmed from a place of love and concern.

Hello,Husband,Goodbye Cheating
"I’m really sorry but I can’t agree to that,” he responded, his voice barely audible. “Especially now that I’m still recovering in the hospital and I don’t think I’m up for a trip right now.”I could sense the anguish in his eyes and I couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt. However, our son’s celebration was approaching and I couldn’t imagine Elijah missing out.“Please, sweet heart. Marco has been eagerly anticipating this trip for weeks. It’s just a short weekend getaway, nothing too strenuous,” I pleaded.Elijah’s face turned stern.“Sweet heart, you know I can’t be civil to your ex-husband after what he did to me,” he stated, his voice tinged with resentment.“He accused me of betraying you, and you know that’s not true. How can I face him after that?”As the tension grew stronger between us, I explained to Elijah why I needed him by my side."It's crucial for you to be there, Elijah, to prove that we're content and moving forward. We can't let his accusations get to us," I plead

It was clear that we both felt it, but for the sake of our son's happiness, we chose to push it aside.As we discussed our son's upcoming birthday plans, my mind wandered to the past, to the hurt and betrayal. Elijah's affair with Hannah still haunted me, but I knew I had to focus on the present. With a forced smile, I agreed to Marcus' suggestions."Sounds like a wonderful idea," I replied, trying to mask my inner turmoil. However, Marcus saw through my facade."Samantha, are you really okay? You seem distant," he inquired, his eyes filled with concern.I inhaled deeply, forcing a smile onto my face. "I'm alright. Just a bit exhausted," I fibbed. I didn't want to burden him with my own troubles.However, Marcus remained unconvinced. "I know you too well, Samantha. Something is troubling you. Please, don't shut Elijah out. I understand it's dif

Marco exclaimed, rushing back to us with his list in hand."Well done, champ," Marcus commended him, tousling his hair affectionately."Let me see," I said, taking the list from him. "Ah, these are all your school buddies, right?""Yes, and I also want to invite Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins from next door," Marco chimed in, pointing to the names at the end of the list."What a thoughtful idea, Marco,"I replied, beaming with pride. "They're wonderful neighbors, and I'm sure they'd be thrilled to join in the fun at your party."Marco's excitement was contagious as he bounced around the room, exclaiming, 'Woohoo!'
