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.

That one minute of torture that we went through. We didn't even want to look at the test after the minute was over. I remembered how I cried when the minute was up. I didn't want to look at the test because I didn't want to be disappointed. Jeremy clutched onto my hand while he picked up the three tests. He read all three before telling me the results. I started crying again. But it was because I was happy.

The first thought in my head was about me being a parent. I wanted to be like Anthony. He was a great father before I knew everything. I wanted to be a good parent like he was- just minus the kidnapping part obviously.

"Happy Father's Day" I muttered, hoping that he heard me somewhere. A part of me hated him for lying to me my whole life, but at the same time, I was grateful. No one knows what my life would've been like if I wasn't kidnapped.
