I'm Sorry

"What made you believe that I was involved with other men? You insisted I should not get a job and just stay home, I obliged. You hired a platoon to guard the house, I didn't complain. You always called me on the phone every chance you get, I always answer," Ying Yue began ranting.

"Yes, I went shopping. I left the house even though you told me to stay home. But you know what? I got bored. In fact, I got bored of being bored because being bored is boring. I went out. Met people. Had fun. But I didn't know you had doubts, I'm sorry," by now Ying Yue was chocking on her own tears.

"I'm sorry I was not good enough... I'm sorry I was not the wife you needed. I'm sorry I didn't meet and achieve your expectations. I'm sorry I didn't satisfy you like the women you had before. I'm sorry I was a virgin and inexperienced. I'm ..."

Ying Yue was sobbing hard, unable to finish her sentence. This is too much. Why does it have to be so painful?

It was painful for Feng Yu to see her cry but he knew it was more painful to her.

"No, baby. Don't say that. There is nothing you need to be sorry for. You're everything I want and need. Everything I prayed for," Feng Yu wrapped his arms around her and kissed Ying Yue's forehead many times.

"You're not that kind of woman. I know you wouldn't do it to us. I know it now" Feng Yu told her. I know. And I believe you now, baby. I'm sorry it took time for me to realise.

"Have you investigated and confirmed that it wasn't me in the pictures?" Ying Yue asked, sniffling at the same time.

Feng Yu fell silent causing Ying Yue to look up at him from within his arms. Ying Yue felt her heart turn cold, dreading what came next. She took a step out of Feng Yu's embrace, Feng Yu allowing her to leave.

"Feng Yu? You didn't get the pictures investigated?"

Feng Yu shook his head, a silent no.

"Then how do you know it wasn't me? Are you playing with me?"

"No, of course not. I didn't need to get them investigated for photoshop because ... in one of them you had three arms..."

Ying Yue stood silently in disbelief. "So you're telling me that you divorce me not because of rumours but because of a picture of me with three arms?"

Feng Yu kept silent because he knew whatever he said was going to be wrong in some sort of way.

"So when you saw the picture of me with three arms that guaranteed that I was innocent?" Ying Yue waited for him to answer, but Feng Yu continued to stay silent. Ying Yue wanted to hear it from him that he trusted her more than anything in the world; that he believed that she was guiltless because he trusted her more.
