crying. Jesus Christ, these hormones I tell ya. I walk in the bathroom to find her, sitting on the toilet crying.
“What’s wrong, baby? Are you okay?” I ask as I sit on the side of the bathtub. She’s just sitting there sobbing.
“Th…There isn’t any toilet paper on the roll, and I can’t get up to get it.”
“Li, that’s why you’re crying? Over the damn toilet paper? I thought something was wrong. There is a whole pack in the closet, I will grab it.”
“Sniffle…oh…sniffle… Thank you, sweetheart.”
I need a damn night out alone or with some friends. All this hormonal crying is depressing. I love my wife, but I hate that she cries so much.
I need to go into the office and work some, which is okay with Li, she has big plans with Nikki this weekend. Wedding planning shit, when the two of them get ideas in their heads they won’t stop till it’s perfect. So I get ready and leave my three beautiful sleeping girls in bed and take a jog, then go into work.
“Hey Ashton, how’s things with you man?” I ask as I enter my office. He follows behind me and I can tell something was wrong with him. But he just shakes his head.
“Good morning, not much man. Just tired of the shit Ch ristabell is doing. She is back to her old habits and you know, I don’t mess with that shit and damn sure don’t want it around my son. I packed all of her shit, but she says she will change. So we’ll see. So what’s going on with you and Li? Don’t tell me nothing, because it’s written all over your face, man.”
As I sit down at my desk and run my hands through my hair. I let out a sigh and look at my cousin, I hope I can trust him with what I’m going to tell him. I can’t keep it bottled in any longer, my mind is going crazy.
“Lila cheated on me , and the baby might not be mine.” I blurt out, Ashton grabs the back of the chair and almost falls trying to sit down.
“What the hell… Li cheated on you? Who in the hell would she cheat with?”
“The one and only Evan Martin , of course. It happened when she was in New York City. It so happens that she had just stopped taking her pills, because we wanted another baby. I guess when she was on her little trip she needed to… Well you know the rest. It makes me so damn sick to know he had his hands all over my wife, and then to have his bare dick inside of her. It took everything I had at the hospital not to break his neck. Of course, now that she’s confirmed it, he will know that I know when I see him, that’s if I ever do.”
“Damn dude , that’s fucked up. I don’t know what to say. I never thought she would be the type to do that, and to do that to you. I know when you were missing she and him were really close. I know that she had feelings for him and was engaged to him. Does anyone else know?”
“No pe, just you, I know I can trust you not to say a word. My mind has been all sorts of fucked up. Get this, it wasn’t the first time. She slept with him; when she went back to NYU to withdraw, then the day of her father’s memorial. In the guest house, while we were all in the main house. This last time was five months ago when she went to Heather’s wedding. I just don’t get it, what the fuck is so special about him? She says she has love for him, but not the way she loves me. I just need a break I need a guy’s night out. I love my wife and I pray to God that’s my son, but I’m so tired. I have all this shit running through my mind. I also need to figure out what we are going to do about getting this investigation service going. I’m ready to be distracted and a new job will do just that.”
“You’re stronger than I am , brother. I can’t believe she would do all that shit to you though. But in all honesty man, she was a confused basket case while you were gone, I know you’re back now, and she should have broken all ties with that dude. Don’t know much about him, he seemed nice. Hey why don’t we go out for some
