WIFE INSTINCT

PART 19'S

Emma's plan for revenge against her husband failed miserably. He was defeated again by a love greater than his revenge. Richard is not a quitter type. He is not tired of trying to fix everything. But his hard work has not yet yielded results. Emma was still cold, indifferent and rarely responded to her talk.Although Richard did not stop, he did not give up on improving their relationship.

" I was wrong, but I will prove that I sincerely want to change without coercion from anyone. My intentions are purely from my heart. I was wrong to betray you and our holy marriage. My fault is huge, but I have a strong will and intention to change. I admit that I can't live without you by my side"

Richard said in his heart as he looked at Emma's sleeping face. He misses the chatter of Emma who never tired of reminding him to eat on time, to always be careful and to always pray. Slowly he approached Emma.

A gentle peck on Emma's forehead after peeping his wife Richard's forehead hurriedly out of the room.

*****

Richard felt lost. Emma is very different from Emma now. He felt very uncomfortable with this situation. I rarely see Emma smiling. There was a feeling of longing in Richard's heart. Nothing else reminds him of eating on time, nothing else spoiled with him, everything feels different. Richard was able to survive at first but eventually gave up. He was talking to Emma. He cannot be ignored, he is unusual without the attention of his wife. One day Richard accidentally went home from work sooner than usual. At home his children welcomed him with great joy. Different from Emma. When Richard walked in and said good afternoon, Emma simply nodded without looking at Richard's face. He was busy playing his phone. Richard is stressed about Emma's changing attitude. He was depressed, in his heart he protested, but he did not yet have the courage to reveal everything in front of Emma. Emma completely limited her communication with Richard. Even if Emma wants to say something especially if it's about the child Emma prefers to send a short message through whatsaap rather than talking directly with Richard.

Unlike before, every time they communicate through whatsaap or SMS abstinence for both of them not to say hello with the word DARLING. But now Emma has released her unfortunately greeting.

Richard's gone, he's uncomfortable, his mind's fucked. His wife turned into a stranger.

He could not stay silent, he could not stand it anymore until he finally had to speak directly to Emma.

Emma: Hmm. (while still staring at the phone screen).

Richard: I want to talk to you

Emma : yap.please (while placing *phone on the table)

Richard : Mamah is changing, mamah is very different from what it was. I know I realize you're still angry, disappointed and upset with me but please don't do this to me. I can't afford mah*.

Emma: This is how??? I don't understand what you mean. explain.

Richard: Mah can't you greet me like you used to? Please don't shut up to me, ma'am, don't fuck me. I feel foreign mah. I'm so stressed, I can't focus on my job. I'm screwed, mah, I beg you not to be like this.

Emma: Why? you protest? do you know how I felt when you were stupid and ignored me?? do you care when I cry for your attention?? Are you looking at me as I hug your feet begging you, begging for your mercy, asking you not to go?? You even threw away my face, pushed me, let me fall to my knees crying out for my fate and just left. What you're feeling right now doesn't compare to everything I'm feeling. Don't ever ask me to be good again because the present me is the result of your actions. Don't ask me to come back like I used to because I don't know the way home, I've lost my backrest. Let me get lost like this. If you can't stand it, you can leave me. I won't hold you back anymore. My feelings are dead, because of the poison you gave me.

Richard's heart seemed to stop hearing all the words of his wife. Now he could see there was a grudge veiled in Emma's heart. His tongue was twisted, his lips locked. He can't answer anymore. He could only be silent and shed tears. And Emma?? He did not care, he took his phone, stood up and walked to the room without even looking at Richard.
