บท 156: Won’t Give Up

(From Demetrius's Perspective)

I did not know what to say to her. I did not have any proof to make her believe my words. She had all the right to suspect me. If I was in her position, I would have done the same. Yet, she said it did not matter anymore. Even if I betrayed her, she wanted to trust me. 

My heart broke hearing her words. Our relationship- I did not want it to be like this. My wife was my everything. What was I even going to do if she thought that way? There was no way I would betray her. No matter what it was for, she was not going to be someone I would ever betray. 

"Then stay with me," I said. I knew I should have said something more. I should have told her that I would not betray her. But for some reason, I could not just say it. 

"Yeah," she mumbled.
