Episode 15
CALEB
#
Now, as we stand three feet apart and stare at each other, I feel the full distance that comes with spending so much time apart, a moment filled with the electricity of a first meeting and the uncertainty of strangers. Until that moment I had not understood that this was a story about lonely people, about absence and loss, and that that was why I had taken refuge in it until it became confused with my own life, like someone who has escaped into the pages of a novel because those whom he needs to love seem nothing more than ghosts inhabiting the mind of a stranger.
my wife felt like a stranger to me, if I try to touch her, she might refuse or for just a short while.
why do you look so worked up? ” Elisha asked.
nothing man ” I said taking a sip of my whiskey.
where is madam ” he asked
I don’t know, she barely home ” I said
is it why you look tired?” he asked.
she is a different person when I came back ” I said
man, you know women they are moody” he said
I hope that mood changes because I miss my wife ” I said
He laughed ,he left after an hour.
I was off today I wanted to spend time with my wife but she wasn’t anywhere to be seen. . she came back around 17.
hey ” she said
mi amor ” I said
you are drunk ” she said getting the glass from my hand.
why do you smell a man’s perfume? ” I asked
you are drunk ” she said
am not drunk to tell that you are wearing a man’s perfume” I said
I met an old friend; he is the one who I hugged ” she said
oh ok” I said
she went to take a shower. later she prepared supper for us.
Caleb I am tired ” she said
when have you been tired having sex with me, your husband? “I asked
am tired today ” she said
Sharon is a sex freak and I know how much my wife enjoys sex. but her refusing was really worrying me.
where are you going?” I asked
am going to see maria, her baby isn’t feeling too well ” she said
let me go with you I take a look at the baby” I said
she already took him to the hospital ” she said
what time will you be back” I asked
2hours time ” she said
she kissed my cheek and walked away.
I started planning for her birthday, since today was her 27th birthday, I was planning a surprise party for her …
I thought she was with you ” I asked maria.
me ” she answered surprised
maybe I didn’t get her ” I said
maybe ” she said
the weird part was that the boy, she was talking about was running up and down.
it’s really nice that you are planning a party for her, too bad it’s only for the four of you ” she said
I needed some family time ” I said
anyway, I wanted to see her, tell her that I came to see her ” she said
I started planning for our dinner, I cooked and set the table with candles and flowers.
daddy am sleepy mummy is not coming ” he said
she is let’s wait a little bit longer ” I said
ok but am tired ” he said yawning.
Sharon took longer than expected. after giving the boys they food, I took them to bed…
I decided to go to bed as well …I have a history of making decisions very quickly about others. I have always fallen in love fast and without measuring risks. I have a tendency not only to see the best in everyone, but to assume that everyone is emotionally capable of reaching his highest potential. I have fallen in love more times than I care to count with the highest potential of a man, rather than with the man himself, and I have hung on to the relationship for a long time (sometimes far too long) waiting for the man to ascend to his own greatness. Many times, in romance I have been a victim of my own optimism
the pain I felt after what Sharon did was unbelievable.
