Just Once

Three years of marriage brought nothing but a thorn to my heart. My child was critically ill and in need of treatment. My husband didn't care and even called me unfaithful. In my desperation, I sold my body and soul in exchange for the recovery of my child. His name was Benjamin. Dominating the underworld and influencing politics, he was like a poppy that impressed, captivated, broke, and disillusioned me. He said that different from the others who approached me only for sex, he wanted every part of me. He also said that I was his only one and that nothing in this world could compare with me. Then he told me that these were all lies. I told him that these were true to me.

Chapter 30

A few eyes softened, and some looked confused. I would be confused if someone I hated was pouring their soul out to me. "I want to thank you for being apart of my daughter's life. All of you have made a positive impact on her life. I want to thank you all for trusting my son and for coming here today. But most of all. I want to thank you for being there for Alicia, when her mother and I couldn't" By the time I was done, everyone's glares were gone. "Enjoy the rest of your day. And I hope I get the chance to get to know you all" I said softly.

They all nodded and the crowd dispersed into their own little groups. David walked up to me with a little girl in his arms. She's been attached to his hip since everyone has gotten out of the cells, but I can never remember her name. "Hey, Dad" Dave greeted me. "I heard that whole thing with Mom" he said hesitantly.
