Married Life's

1.18. I'm Sorry

The silver car had been parked neatly in the large garage of the Boltom family's house. A woman in the car seemed to sigh for the umpteenth time, she leaned her body on the car seat, trying to gather all the strength she had. He was afraid, he was very afraid of everything he would do from this moment on. Afraid to just open the car door, afraid to enter the house which is clearly his home and the most feared is to meet a tall man who incidentally is her husband.

“Hhh.”

He sighed again and with all his courage he began to open the door. With a very careful step he began to get down from the car and stepped slowly towards the big door of the house with the white paint. He opened the door and looked around the house. His gaze immediately focused on a man who was sound asleep on the sofa.

The woman's gaze softened, with slow steps she began to approach the sleeping man. Guilt enveloped him. He can clearly see the charismatic face of the man, the man who still fully uses office clothes, and his mobile phone that is still in his grasp.

Suddenly the woman looked for something in the handbag she was carrying. He forgot his phone and it's a sign it's still in Mike's apartment. A very fatal mistake. Relax, calm down, he can't panic. He just had to say his phone was stolen or dropped, right? And the problem will be solved, but will it really be solved?

“Jessica.”

The woman who felt called looked at the source of the voice. But he had to flinch when someone hugged him very tightly. Jessica was silent, in front of her this time there was Matt who hugged her very tightly, even she felt her stomach hurt a little because of the pressure of Matt's body, which was very tight, with all her might Jessica let go of Matt's embrace and got a confused look from Matt.

“Where have you been? I'm so worried about you Jess.”

Jessica's gaze softened, she was really very guilty. Matt loved her so much, but he betrayed Matt's love. Jessica could only look down, her tears slowly coming out. It was as if his chest was already unable to endure the pain any longer. His chest felt extremely painful, as if someone was punching him hard which made him grimace.

Matt gasped at the sight of the sobs from his beloved wife. Matt hugged Jessica very tightly, as if his sturdy shoulders were indeed created to hug Jessica's tiny body. A huge curiosity was held back by Matt, Jessica needed a moment of calm and she could ask later. When he saw Jessica who was so messy, he knew very well that something was wrong with her 'girl.

“Akh!”

Jessica grimaced when she accidentally scratched her arm with a knife that she was using to cut vegetables in front of her. He made a vegetable salad for both. Plus jam for bread that has been made by himself is available. He knows, Matt doesn't like ready-made jars of jam. To him, the jam was very sweet. Hence, he had made his own jam.

Matt quickly looked at his hand. Patently, Matt cleans the blood using water and also gives plaster to his hands. Jessica smiled at Matt's reaction, why is he still having an affair if he has a husband as good as Matt? Guilt came back to his mind.

“You don't work?”

Jessica moved her hand away from Matt's, she was afraid to cry again and made Matt suspicious. He again cut some vegetables, trying to look ordinary by busying himself. But Matt hugged her and rested his head on his shoulder covered in a short-sleeved white shirt.

“I still miss you so much. You haven't told me, where were you yesterday? You didn't tell me.”

There's a sulking tone behind Matt's words. Jessica could only smile by still cutting some vegetables. But the longer, his chest grew increasingly tight. The tears seemed to force to come out even though as much as possible he had tried to hold it. Did he ask Matt for a divorce before it was all discovered? Before Mike told me, because sooner or later Mike will certainly do reckless. But what about his father, Mr. Villegas. The middle-aged man who was very stubborn, he would definitely be beaten up by the man if he asked for a divorce with Matt. Especially because of Matt's company, the Villegas family company again succeeded.

“Hey, you're crying again. What was? You're making me worry.”

Matt turned Jessica's body around. He stared intently at the gloomy face of Jessica who looked down. He saw clearly Jessica's lower lip was slightly swollen. Did Jessica. ah no, she shouldn't have thought that way.

“Su.Angelina's husband cheated on her. And..and I.”

“Let me guess, you're afraid I'm having an affair like Angelina's husband did, aren't you? Hey come on My Jessie. I love you so much, I would never do such a thing.”

Jessica could only hug Matt tightly and shed her tears there. Matt's t-shirt was wet with his tears. Matt's words made him even more sad and guilty.

“So you cried because of that problem? Remember Jessica, I was always there for you and never left you. So, stop crying okay?”

Matt let go of Jessica's embrace and raised Jessica's face to look at her. Gently, Matt wiped the tears of Jessica who had wet his cheeks. Matt smiled at Jessica, happy that Jessica was crying for fear of losing her. Had Matt known what Jessica was crying for, he probably would never have smiled like he is today.
