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.

"Let them through" I demanded. The guards parted, revealing Jesse, Sam, Sammie, and Ver. "You guys didn't tell us you were coming" I lightly scolded them, while giving them quick hugs.

Everyone shrugged except Jesse. "We were going to surprise you guys. You were gonna be so happy that you finally get to see us. I know you missed us so much and you were probably crying all night from being away from us. So we came to you" he stated.

"Where's Em?" Sammie asked, looking around at the group of us.
