Who is Maria? (2)

"I-I" I stuttered.

"Hm?? What??" he asked me curiously.

"E-erk.. Someone called y-you just now... so I picked it up for you...thats all.." I said nervously while gave him his phone.

"Oh...thats all?Who is the caller? Then why are you being nervous all around..?" he asked me again as he took his phone from me.

"I don't know her.." I replied to him as I fidgeted my finger nervously.

"Her?? Its a girl?? Let me see ... Hm?? Maria???" he asked to himself as he checked through Maria's contact.

"He don't know her? But, she talked about him like she have been knew him for many years though ... Or ... he lied to me??? C-can I really ask him t-this .. ?? What does she mean by the 'one of his bitches'...? Perhaps ... is he cheating behind my back ??!! N-no it can't be!! We just had sex and he treated me extremely nice ... There is no way that he have been cheating behind my back .... But ... he always smelled like woman perfume after he went home from work ... There is some lipstick stain too ... The evidences are far from enough .... But, what if he said that it was all misunderstood ... ? What if he leave me alone after this ...?? I am afraid ... What I am suppose to do ..? Ask him ..?" I said to myself as I fidgeted my fingers hardly until it bled.

"Baby?? Sabrina?? Hello?? Is anyone there..???" he asked me as he wave his hand in front of my face.

"Y-yes??!!" I stuttered as I got back in reality.

"What are you thinking..? You look serious ...?" he asked me again a he tilted his head.

"N-nothing at a-all. Hahaha" I replied to him nervously.

"Hmm??? Alright then" he said as he shrugged lightly.

"I think I need to ask him about that ... ! Yeah I should! Is this the perfect timing after all?? Come on, Sabrina! Don't be afraid!! You need an answer!! You should overcome your fear this time! Everything is gonna be okay... Its just a question ... Be confident ! please, Sabrina .. I know you can do this! Okay, breathe in .. breathe out ... Alright .. !! I decided to ask him !! Yeah lets go!! " I said to myself as I looked down to the floor intensely.

"H-hajime, can I ask you a question??" I asked him as I bit my lips.

"Yeah, sure! What is it?" he replied to me calmly.

"Tell me, HONESTLY. Who is Maria???" I asked him as I looked at him in eyes.

"H-huh?? M-maria?? Oh! S-she is one of the colleagues in my d-department, thats all. Why?? Why are you asking me this kind of question?? You usually don't ask me around about someone though..." he replied to me as he tried to avoid my gaze.

"What?? What did you say?? Colleagues you say??! Then, let me ask you this.Why did she talked about you like she knew you better than me and shes like she has been knew you in many years!" I stormed angrily.

"You know what?? Why did she told me that you never wore your ring? No, I mean YOUR WEDDING RING!" I asked him again angrily and tried to control my anger.

"Oh! I almost forget about this. I don't know what kinda your reaction gonna be... But..." I said to him directly as my anger gonna take my whole body.
