A Shy Wife

Product Information

Oh.” Lettice mutters, trying to remain serious at the maid’s complaint, but unable to hide the smile of mirth that turns up the corner of her mouth. Mia left her to go upstairs to finish up her chores. Charlotte wished she knew what do. She had to get home. Things were getting to confusing. She felt like she couldn't breathe. She promised Alex she would stay a few days. I'll give him 2 more, she thought to herself, and then she was going home.

Alex thought to start the conversation off slow and easy. "So how have you been? It has been awhile."Alex, I said I can't. Will you just go? I will call you tomorrow." Why wasn't he taking the hint? She had work to do. Just then one of the glasses spilled over everything on her desk. All of her documents that she had spent all night working on.

It occurred to him he didn't ask her if she was willing for this to happen. "Is this what you want, Charlotte," he asked with care. Alex and Mia were setting the table in the kitchen when she arrived. They both looked at her and greeted her with a smile. She couldn't believe it. Alex was helping in the kitchen. The food smelled wonderful. She realized she hadn't eaten in over six hours. Definitely not good. All three gathered around the table for this gorgeous meal. Oh I did. But he kept saying 'Next spring it'll be better, honey, and then I will have more time to spend with you.' It went on like that for 4 years and I had enough. I needed to get out." Given the symptoms you described and the tests that we ran, this is the final diagnosis. You are about six weeks along, I would estimate. See the secretary out front and she will schedule an appointment for an ultrasound. I do hope this is happy news for you and your husband." Several weeks had past since Alex and Charlotte had made love, five to be exact. He had thought about it often. He wished there was something he could do to change her mind. However, in the end he knew he couldn't. He finally relented and took the divorce papers to his lawyers and signed them Monday morning.The restaurant was excellent. Their table was quaint, quiet, and lit with candlelight. It was very romantic. While they wait for their dinner to arrive, they continued with mild conversation. Not to Alex. It sounded like a miracle. This was the first time for him. He wanted to cry. This was his baby. It was their miracle, his and Charlotte's. The doctor noticed the tension in the room. "Let me excuse myself. Charlotte, I will see you in one month." I could tell something was troubling you at dinner. Want to tell me what it was?" She saw something in his eyes at that moment. Desire was burning right through him. She could see it. Her brain was telling her she needed to get out of there, however her hormones were telling her different. Later she removed her bottom half, too, and laid both pieces up on the edge of the pool. When it was time to get out of the water, she held a large towel in front of her as she stood up. But, she lost her grip on it and it fell into the water. So, there she was, before my friend, completely naked and only a few feet away. He was able to see EVERYTHING!

She had spent the last five years being there for him. She did everything for him; gave to him all she had. Why couldn't he do what he promised when they married? He promised to put her above all else. Short Story Writing | Writers | Read Online | Writing Contests | Writing Software | Writing Journals | Writing A Book | Writing A Novel

Oh, baby. Don't cry. I'm sorry for earlier. I was thinking with the wrong head." There was that smile of hers again. "It won't happen again, I promise." No, Alex. Not enough said. You can't come in and push your way around. I am not yours anymore. I can take care of myself and don't worry about the baby. It'll be fine." I jumped on top, and during the time were we in there, a steady stream of people approached to try and join or just watch. Who," she laughed. "You know who. I talked to her you know. When she was here to recover. Don't you see what's going on here?"
