His Bedwarmer’s Wife

Hunter handed me the flowers he had brought.

“For you.” I just looked at it and honestly, I don’t want to take it but he might say my attitude is bad. Of course, even if it’s true, it’s still painful to hear it, especially if it comes from the mouth of someone who had a worse attitude than you.

“What’s this for? I am not sick.” What kind of drama is this and he wasted his time just to bring flowers. Besides, there’s a lot of flowers in mom’s garden. He’d think that all the pain that he was given before would disappear if he gave me a ton of flower? Even if he builds a flower plantation nothings change.

He didn’t answer the question and just looked at me. I was lost in the way he stared because I felt something. But in fairness, he’s more handsome now and it’s nice to hug him and at the same time, it’s nice to slap her hard.

This guy annoys me the way he looks.

“Do you need anything from me? Please speak quickly and I’m in a hurry.” I asked because he was still not moving. He was about to answer when Daddy suddenly spoke, who had just come down.

“Oh, you’re already here Ley. Let’s go to the kitchen for lunch.” I looked at the wall clock and noticed that it was past 11:00 A. M. That’s why my stomach has been going crazy before because it’s already noon. Hunter and I went to the kitchen together.

When we arrived, he guided me to sit.

What kind of fucking drama is this?

There are only three of us here because Hera is busy and mommy is in the office.

“So how’s the plantation, Hunter?” Dad asked as he started to eat.

“Everything is under fine and next day I will go out to Cagayan to see the land offered there for our sugar cane plantation plan.” Dad nodded.

Daddy and Hunter have a formal conversation. I didn’t care what they talked about, especially because it was all about business when my name suddenly came up.

“I would like Ley to come with me since her name is also the future investor of the sugar cane plantation.” I looked wickedly at Hunter who was smiling at me. What does this idiot say and why do I have to go with him on his trip? I don’t care about their business either.

“Hmph! I think that’s a good idea. Since your ex-wife didn’t do anything well. If she doesn’t come home drunk, she literally won’t come home. What do you think, Ley?” Dad asks.

What the fuck is happening?

Fuck this life.

What’s going on with them?

Is this because of the alcohol I drink?

Why they’re the one whose mind is not ok?

Then what is daddy thinking and why does it seem that it’s ok to him that Hunter and I are will be together. While he is my ex-husband. What is it then, he gives me back with this asshole?

“Ley,” dad called my name.

“Nah, I’m not interested,” I replied and just continued eating. I don’t care about what they’re talking about.

“But you have to come with Hunter,” daddy said looking at me.

“No,” I protested.

“But Ley, you’re the one—–”

“Can we talk?” I didn’t let Hunter finish and stood up first. He looked at daddy as if asking for approval. “Only me and you.” He also got up so I walked out of the kitchen first.

I don’t know what you’re fighting for Hunter, but I won’t let you play with me.

“What nonsense is this?” I asked as soon as we got out.

“What do you mean?” This fucking idiot is love to pretend as if nothing wrong. Great pretender of the year just like his lover. I wish I can throw him into the fire and burn him alive.

“Why do you want to take me to Cagayan?”

“Because you are the investor.”

“Investor your ass, I don’t care about that business and I don’t care about you anymore.”

“Ley, not only me the one who decides this, but it’s also your dad. And we both did this because of you.”

“But I told you I don’t care right? Used my name ok, but don’t force me to come with you, not even to talk to you. because you know Hunter, honestly, I hate your presence.”

“Ley,”

“Can you please explain to me what’s your fucking plan, Hunter? Is it because of what I did to Kyla the other day or because you’re still not done hurting me to get revenge for taking you from Kyla before?”

“No! though, I don’t understand why you did that to her but that’s between you and Kyla, And for us, I have a mistake on you, right?”

“Then why are you pulling me to get involved in your life again?”

“I begged your dad to give me a chance to get back at you, with us. I mean even as friends. I’m sorry if I’ve been in such a hurry.” Wow! fucking friends my ass. “I know it’s hard for you to believe me because of what I did to you then and to your baby—”

“Our baby, Hunter,” as if my rectum got even hotter because of what he said.

“Ley,”

“Please don’t include our baby in your fucking guilt, OUR baby you fucking stupid.”

“I’m sorry, my bottom line is I just want you to be my friend.”

“Are you fucking kidding me?”

“What’s the matter, Ley, if we become friends?” he asked. I looked at him badly then face him closer then he continues. “If that will be the beginning for us to forgive each other in the past. Why do you fight to accept me as a friend?”

“Then why did you refuse to be my friend before when I ask you the same question?”

“Ley.”

“I already have a lot of friends and I have no plans to add you. And before you pushed yourself to me to be my friend, answer first the question of why you did not give me a chance to be your friend before.” I was about to turn my back on him when he suddenly grabbed my hand.

“Ley, I miss you.” I stopped and immediately faced him again.

“What?”

“I said, I fucking miss you. I missed the times we were together, the times you cared for me, everything you did for me.” Speechless. Are you playing me, Hunter? Because if yes, you’re good at playing.

But I also recovered quickly and laughed sarcastically.

“There’s nothing good about our past relationship, isn’t it? Nothing can miss there. You throw only anger towards me and I get pain from you. So which part should we miss?” I smile while asking him.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
