Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (books to read fiction TXT) 📗

Special Chapter 1

I am glaring at Deus as he walk inside the house without saying a word to me.

 

I watched him put his bag on the coffee table, loosen up his tie, fold his sleeves up to his elbow, massage his temple while sitting on the sofa.

 

He's doing everything like I am not here!

 

I shouldn't be making a fuss about this because I started this cold war but I am waiting for him to make his way to me, hug me, and whisper sweet words.

 

He should at least make any effort because this is his fault on the first place. I am so disappointed that he is ignoring me and the table just turned.

 

I wanna smack him in the head so bad.

 

I marched in the kitchen with a heavy heart. I bet I look like a dragon ready to spit fire right now.

Damn that husband of mine.

 

We've been like this for weeks now. I tried not to talk to him so he can have an idea that I am mad and so he will give me lots of attention because his been spending so much time with his work lately.

 

Unfortunately, we ended up on this setup. Is it bad to ask attention from my husband?

 

I pouted while keeping all my disappointments and loneliness in my heart.

 

I know he got a lot of responsibility being the CEO.

I understand that but what about me? It's been six months since we tied the knot and in that span of time it felt like we drew apart. Yeah so sad that we're on the opposite.

 

I sighed and control my tears.

 

Maybe it's about time to return in my work.

When we get married he ask me not to do any work.

 

I am left at home most of the time doing the roles of typical housewife. I am really enjoying serving him but staying in the house almost the whole day is not fun.

Breakfast is the only meal we are eating together this couple of weeks. He goes home when I already fallen asleep, wake up to him rushing again for work.

I am really feeling sad. I tried to cheer myself up and broaden my understanding but I am longing for him. We are together but we're distant at the same time.

 

I get my phone and dial Ali's number.

 

"Where are you?" I asked when she picked up her phone. I miss her for we seldom see each other. She and my brother is trying to start a new business together making them so busy and occupied.

 

"Home. Kai and I just arrived. Is everything okay?" a lone tear roll down my cheeks.

I quickly wiped it with the back of my hand.

 

"Can I go there? I wanna spend the night with you. It's been a while since we last had our girl talks" I try to sound okay.

 

I don't wanna make her worry.

 

"Are you okay?" maybe I can't really hide anything from her. She knew me too well.

 

"Just a bit sad about something." I confessed. There's no point in lying anyway.

 

"It's a bit late to go here. You sure you wanna come? Do you want me to fetch you?" I am touched with her concern.

 

I badly want to see her. I know she is the best person whom I can let this all out.

 

"I can drive. Is it okay if I stay the night there?"

 

"Of course. You go and get your ass here. Faster cause I miss you so much" that made me smile.

 

At least someone misses me.

I felt love.

 

I excitedly went to our room and packed some of my clothes. I put my phone and other essentials in the bag.

I change my clothes to a comfortable pajamas and tie my hair in a messy bun. Then I get my wallet and car keys.

 

I happily go down carrying my bag. I look for Deus in the living room where I left him but he is not there anymore.

Maybe he in his studies again still doing work.

 

I will just text him later that I'm gone somewhere. I am sure he wont mind.

 

I drive my way to my brothers home. It's been four or five months since they got married and they look so happy. I wish we are the same.
