Sharing the Beloved

Past Times

A year ago just when Morvin and Rindi's wedding anniversary was the worst day Morvin had ever felt. He had been waiting so much for that day because he thought it was a special day. He even prepared all the gifts and other troublesome things.

Morvin never expected the outcome would be so different to what he thought. The night that he thought would be very warm turned out to only contain a void. Rindi, the woman he was waiting for did not return.

The previous afternoon Rindi said that she was going to go out with a friend. Morvin always believed in him. She thought Rindi was a loyal wife, but it turned out to be all nonsense.

When he finished his work, Morvin immediately rushed home. He did not want Rindi to wait for his return even though it was only half 7pm. He did not want to disappoint his wife especially on a very important day.

Morvin drives his car at above average speeds. His smile never disappeared from his lips, making him many times more handsome.

Within fifteen minutes he was home. But the result he never imagined. The house looked quiet, not even the lights were on. Maybe Rindi hasn't come home yet?

He tried to call Rindi, but there was no answer even after so many times he tried. Even though his heart felt a little disappointed, he tried to keep thinking positively. Maybe Rindi still has some business.

An hour passed. Maybe Rindi's on the way.

Two hours. Maybe Rindi stopped by to buy something.

Morvin glanced at the watch. It's almost 9 p.m. Rindi will arrive soon.

And right, exactly ten minutes from 9 o'clock, Morvin heard the key sound playing. He came to greet his wife.

In the end he had to hide. The wife he was waiting for turned out to be in someone else's arms. The woman leaned limply against the chest of a familiar-looking man. He was the friend of Rindi that the woman had told him about.

Ah, if you remember that incident Morvin doesn't know how to behave. He was disgusted with Rindi. The woman was even worse than a caterpillar.

"Rin, no need to hold it anymore. We have nothing to do anymore" Morvin said, removing Rindi's hand.

"Vin, I'm sorry. You want to apologize to me?" Rindi is on Morvin's side. His face looks so sad.

"I'm sorry. I even forgot. Isn't it? So you can go now." Morvin said flatly. He no longer wanted to be close to Rindi. Let alone being close together, just looking at it has made him sick.

"But you can't go home by yourself. You just got treated, can I take you home?" Rindi's face became anxious. Whether it was the truth or just pretending, Morvin would not believe it.

He sighed wanting to refuse, yet Rindi raised her hand to stop her speech. "I drive you home or I tell mom about this?"

Morvin frowned unhappily. If his parents knew that he had experienced some kind of accident for sure they would be very worried. Yes, it was because he was an only child, so his parents loved him very much and did not want anything to happen to him.

"Rin, don't be childish" Morvin said.

"I just don't want anything to happen to you on the street. Am I wrong?" asked Rindi with a contrived expression.

"Okay, but only this once." Morvin finally gave up. If Rindi already wants something then what she wants must definitely get. Although not in a straight way.
