CardMONDAY to WEDNESDAY life is fine, I'm in the office. It's just, I was annoyed on Thursday when Magnus reappeared in front of me."What do you need?" I asked in front of him sitting across from my desk."Visiting my wife," he replied.I raised an eyebrow at the food he carried, which he laid on my table. I rolled my eyes when I saw the bouquet and imported chocolates he hands me.I ignored it. Instead, I just kept working in front of the computer. I did not look at him.I heard him sigh. "Tamara, please talk to me," he said softly.I glanced at him. "Can't you see I'm busy here? Go away and bring back all your clutter on my table."He sighed again. "Tamara, baby I brought that snack. I know this is one of your favorites."I even type on the keyboard and stare at the screen of the computer I can still see Magnus on the side of my eyes. Strange because I think he was staring at me."Not anymore," I said, glancing at him slightly."Don't you want to?" he asked sadly."I do not want."
A HugIT WAS weekend. No work, no office, and no paperwork. So I thought about shopping. I bring Bianca with me to a shopping mall.I bought a black cocktail dress for the party, as well as shoes. I bought everything I desired. makeup sets, bags, pants, shirts, and office suits. I also bought Bianca for her. I really enjoyed my shopping, I don’t care about the money I’m wasting.But when I stared at the kid’s clothing section, I was suddenly sad. If my Cassey were still alive, I could also buy her clothes here and all the things she would’ve wanted— toys, dolls, and everything. I will give her everything she wants. If only she were still alive and with me right now.We went to one of the most popular salons that also offer massage services, foot spas, and hair and facial treatment. I curled my hair while I suggest a rebonded for Bianca's hair. We both had a manicure and a pedicure.It’s okay to spend money because I used Magnus's credit card. Well, it's up to him to complain about my b
Call My Wife"BIANCA, come on, let's watch a movie?" I invited Bianca after I change clothes.Bianca stared at me in surprise. I know she wanted to ask why I change my dress into a pair of jeans and a top."Tamara, I thought you were going to a party today?" she wondered.“I can't go to the party. I have lost interest. And I prefer to just watch a movie because my favorite movie is still showing in the cinema. It's also your favorite, right?” Bianca nodded softly. "All right, get dressed and we'll leave right away."Bianca was still surprised but she followed. I saw her face the pleasure and excitement.While waiting, I received something text from an unregistered number.[Get ready in two hours. See you, baby. I love you.]Your husband, MagnusI was devastated by the message I read. I don't know why I was trembling or nervous. I would really like to prepare earlier for that party, but when Margot texted me that her husband Felix and she were going to attend the party. Knowing it, I su
Out Of Balance[ TAMARA POV. ]I HAVE immediately diverted my eyes throughout the bar until I saw him debating with two men at the counter.I hurriedly walk over to them and the man nothing else was done but disturb the quiet life I live.“U-uhm, excuse me—” The three of them looked at me when I approached."OH, My wife," Magnus immediately stood up and approached me.I suddenly support his body so he doesn't fall on the ground.“Why are you getting drunk? What is your problem?!" I asked slowly, I could feel his weight as he clung to my shoulder and waist."You know that you are my problem. But thank you for coming, wife,” Magnus said in a drunken voice."Stand well!" I sharply look at him in the eyes, then I turned to the in front of us. “I'm sorry for the inconvenience of my... h-husband,” I had no choice but to claim he was my husband.Magnus was drunk so he couldn't hear what I have said.“It’s okay, ma’am. By the way, I’m the manager of this bar and I was also the one who talked t
Emergency "TAMARA, you have a visitor," Bianca shouted after she knocks on my bedroom door.I frowned when I opened the door. "Who?"“I don't know, Sis, but he said you know him. He is outside now, waiting for you.”"All right, I'll just take a look after I'm doing something."When the door closed, I resumed dressing in house clothes. Bianca and I just went home from a tiring day of work.After getting dressed I go out of my room and proceed to face my guest. I sighed when I saw the person I have been trying to avoid because of what had happened to us in his condo.Magnus nodded and approached me seriously right in front of the door I was standing on."What's the point—""Are you avoiding me?"I was swallowed hard by the seriousness of his voice and as he stared at me."W-what about if I avoid you?" my answer.Magnus sighed. “Please… can we talk? What happened in my condo last time night—”"You're drunk! I also know you don’t know what you doing. So please, let’s just forget about tha
Grocery StoresIT HAD been three days since Margot was admitted to the hospital. I also haven't been in the office for three days because I personally took care of her, that's because she didn't want Felix to take care of her. Margot always ignored her husband.I don’t know whom I would feel more pity for. If it's Margot, who lost a child like me, or Felix who is so worried about his wife's condition and emotions."Marg?" I called out to Margot who was stagnating. Without expression, she turned to me."What?" She asked reluctantly."You will get out of here now.""So?" she still didn't feel like answering.“Margot, I understand how you feel. But I hope you will talk to your husband. He is really worried too much for you.”“Understand? Why, have you ever experienced did I experience, huh Tamara? I lost my child, Tam, for God’s sake. And it’s because of his mother!”I sigh. I wish I could answer her with, ‘Yes, I also lost my child, and I feel hurt, more than what you feel.’“You're not
Forgiveness "U-UHM."I sigh. "Excuse me." I backed away from my cart. I glanced at her out of the corner of my eyes. she was still there, still facing me and staring.“T-Tamara, dad wants to see you. He wants to see you again,”I stopped at what I heard."H-he tried to find you."I turned to Rebeka without emotion. "And why does he want to see me?" I seriously ask her.“He missed you... so much,” she said softly.I shook my head and smiled sardonically. “Are you kidding me? Me, what is your dad looking for? Impossible.”I turned around, once pushing the cart toward the counter.“T-Tamara, p-please. Daddy is s-sick right now,” I stopped again but did not look back. “W-will you please visit him? H-he wants to see you badly,”I heard Rebeka's voice growl. I turned to her again. "H-he's sick?" I ask.Rebeka nodded sadly. "Y-yes, he had a heart attack, and he was a stroke.” she was already sniffing.I was shocked to find out. Yes, Uncle Arthur made a mistake for me then, he and his family.
A LetterIT'S BEEN two weeks since Rebeka, Uncle Arthur, and I met. And since then, my chest has seemed lighter. I felt real joy in my heart.I have been visiting them once in a while in the new house I bought. I support them- financially. I also shoulder my uncle's therapists for his complete recovery.As I watched a movie, I learned something about the word 'One More Chance'; It sounds like, do not hesitate to give second chances to the people we love. Forgiving and forgetting are the only ways to ease the pain.Rebeka was sincere in apologizing. They are just a family I have right now. So, maybe I quickly forgave them. Especially Uncle Arthur.I sighed as I remembered Magnus. Fortunately, he hasn't bothered me since our last conversation at the hospital. I'm more focused on avoiding him now, whether in a call or text.Maybe, that person is also busy because he does not appear again.A text message popped up for me as I entered the office. I'm coming out later from the conference roo
