All Chapters of Her Burning Desire for Intimacy: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

The drive was quiet for the first few minutes. All I could think of was how Aunt Claudia knew about this and where she even appeared from.Aunt Claudia was my dad’s younger sister. We weren't that close and we barely spoke. All I remember was that she lived with us for a while when I was much younger but that was it.She left years later when she finally got a lead as an actress after years of Improv and small movie gigs which eventually paved the way for her and the wealth she has right now.But the fact that she tried to take me out of the house before my father came meant something.“I am so sorry about your incident Emily” Finally she broke the silence. Her shades were still on and her eyes were fixed on the road.I looked down at the envelope I held containing the divorce papers. I couldn't find the words to utter in response and she could observe my struggle from the corner of her eyes as she drove.“Are you gonna sign the papers?” she asked in such gentle voice like she was try

“Who in the world was that?” Ashley stretched her words in a whisper and her eyes were beaming with excitement.“I should be asking you. I’m the one that is new here” I responded with a straight face as I took a small bite of my cake.“Well, I have been here and I don't think I have ever noticed that man before but he looks cute and rich”“He sure does.”We had an intense laugh about the moment and continued with our breakfast. I tried not to show so much excitement, even though some part of me felt elated. But I knew for a fact I didn't have the right to feel happy. At least that was what I believed. Mainly because the divorce isn't even finalized yet so why should even have such a positive feeling towards another man?I had such a good moment with Ashley while I tried so hard not to get distracted by switching gazes between my friend and this stunning young man a few seats away from me.Right in the middle of our conversation, the waiter walked down to our table with a full bottle

Eric’s POVI stumped out of Emily’s presence with so much rage but I did try to keep it cool. What a struggle!“One could likely think I am bipolar. Luckily I haven’t been diagnosed with that. Yet.” I thought to myself with a slight grin on my face. But who on earth does she think she is!? Well, to be fair, I was the one who asked for a divorce in the first place and that's only because she caught me cheating.Typical Emily! Always snooping around places she isn't meant to be.I tried to bring my anger down to about thirty per cent before I walked back to her face again.A part of me felt elated to see her frozen and still gazing at me as I paced around the house to cool off. What an awesome sight to behold.“I do not want a divorce anymore.” I smiled as I walked towards where she stood.“But why? You asked for this. And I am giving you what you asked for.”“You made me beg Eric. I begged you to stay. I was willing to stay. But you pushed me out like I murdered your mother.”“And no

Emily POVMy prospective new life had just ended right before my eyes. I sat nearly lifeless as Richard and I drove back home. Tears blurred my eyes and I could barely see the road.“Eric wants to destroy my life,” I muttered to myself. My tears couldn't hold itself back after I blinked again. What can I do to get out of this? He wanted this divorce at first and I gladly gave him what he wanted. But yet again, I am suffering for this.My thoughts were all over the place and the sad Lofi music Richard played in the car heightened this sad emotion well enough.Tears kept trickling down my cheeks, so I reached over my shoulder to yank my cotton scarf.“Oh my gosh!” my eyes widened almost immediately.“Where is my scarf?”“Are you comfortable over there ma’am?” Richard asked as he stole a glance at me through the rare mirror.“I can't find my vintage scarf!” my breath shuddered and my eyes fluttered quickly as I tried to search myself.“It was passed down to me from my mother and I mispl
