After Pretending to Be Blind
On the day the gauze was removed from my eyes, I joked that I was blind.
"Don't be afraid if you can't see. I'll take care of you my entire life."
My husband and best friend took care of me while I was in the hospital. They sincerely made that promise to me.
However, when we got home, all three of us were on the same bed.
My best friend rode on top of my husband breathlessly. They were caught up in their intimacy as they thought I could not see.
My best friend was worried I would suspect something and spoke up to eliminate any suspicion. "Uhh… Summer, I'm just giving your husband a massage."
I was so disgusted that I wanted to throw up, but I held myself back.
Once they were done, I was about to find an excuse to leave the room when my five-year-old suddenly ran in. "I miss you so much, Mom!"
Hearing that warmed my heart, and I opened my arms to hug him, but he ran past me and lay down next to my best friend instead.
The 'happy family of three' were all smiles and threw me looks of disgust.
I could no longer tolerate this.
When I called my lawyer, I told him to bring me the divorce papers.
If they wanted to become a family so badly, I would make their wish come true.
I just did not know if my best friend could afford to earn a decent enough income to take care of my useless husband and son.
