His Bedwarmer’s Wife

“Bro, if you want to say something, spill it.” Henry seriously looked at me. I looked at them and they were all staring at me. Henry, Quinn, and Dave, are my childhood friends.

“I love Kyla,” I started.

“We know.” They answer simultaneously.

“I hate Hailey,” I seconded. “A lot,” I added.

“Yeah! We knew that too.”

I sighed because I couldn’t say what I wanted to say.

“All right, get us to straight ‘bro, we won’t judge you,” Quinn said seriously.

“We will just laugh.” Henry stared at Dave for what he said. “Just a joke, go ahead, just open up everything and we will listen at least to reduce what you’re carrying,” he added.

“I know you’ve been wishing that Hailey is Kyla.” I looked at Henry because of what he said who is now smirking at me.

“Wrong ‘bro. He wished that Kyla is just like Hailey,” Quinn said.

“You’re talking nonsense. He wished that Ley is the one he loves.” Dave said while laughing.

“Ah!” simultaneous consent of the two.

“Fuck! Not like that.” I deny what Dave said.

“Then, what do you want to say?” Henry asked me irritably.

“I hope Kyla will also learn what Hailey learned. That’s it. I hope she’ll be like Hailey,” I explained.

“Still Ley is involved. It’s like you just repeated what we said in another way.” Quinn laughs hard when he said that. Then, the two were also followed to laugh.

“Fuck!” I messed up my hair. I think I’m drunk and I don’t know what I am saying.

“‘Bro, you are the one who wants to have that problem, we just sympathize with you. But even if we’re here to sympathize, you can still solve that and not us. Because you still have the decision and we don’t have it.” Its Henry. If there’s anyone sensible to talk to here, it’s just him. Sometimes.

“Can you please hit me with the words? I want real talk.” They looked at me as if they didn’t believe me. But they were all also waiting for what Henry had to say.

“Henry, you talked to Hunter,” Quinn teased.

“Me?” Henry asked as the two nodded. “Maybe he will commit suicide if I will talk to him straight,” he added.

“It’s ok, let’s just contribute the wake.” I looked badly at Dave. “Just a joke, it’s your fault if you take it seriously.”

“You said so.” Henry begin. “You know, if there’s anyone I’ve ever known stupid and asshole in my whole life, I can say it’s you, Hunter,” he said.

“Why?” Quinn asked but Henry looked at him so he immediately stops and then looks at me.

“Because you chose the useless one than the one who served and cared for you. Do you know every time we send you home drunk? We see the sadness and concern in Ley’s eyes. Fuck ‘bro, everyone knows how cruel Hailey Amaranth is. But when it comes to you, she folds. Then that’s just what you did. You hurt the person who changed because of you, the person who loves you and sees no one but you. You are cruel and idiot,” he said.

“And there’s more, you replaced her with the one who has no knowledge but only sex,” he added.

“You’re below the belt,” I said.

“Don’t complain, you said real talk,” Quinn said.

“I can’t love Ley.”

“You can ‘bro if you just opened your heart and you didn’t listen to anyone. If you looked at Ley for her virtues and not for her mistakes. If you let her be your wife and you recognized her for what she is. But, you only see Ley’s mistakes because she took you from the woman that we don’t know what really is. We even thank her for that, because you went to the right person. You didn’t give her a chance to enter your heart even for a moment. Pride overcame, ego exists in you because you can’t accept that Ley got you the way she wanted. You lose, so you go through abuse of her all the time to prove that you will also win over her, but what are you now? Are you going to cry?” I gasped at what Henry said and gulped straight down a bottle of wine.

“I love Kyla. I don’t love Ley, I can’t teach my heart.”

Why don’t they understand that?

No matter what love you receive if you love someone else you also can’t love back those who love you.

“Did you hear what he said?” Henry asked the two who nodded. Then he looks at me “You love Kyla, then accept her completely as Ley accepted you despite everything you showed her. Don’t act like you’re a loser because you like that. Love huh! Let’s see how far your love will take you, one year, you will give up on that love of yours, “he replied as if he was sure of one year.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“You’re serious Henry, one year really, Me, it’s nine months ‘bro. I’m sure there,” Quinn said.

“I doubt that. I don’t believe in one year and nine months. Why are you, Hunter?” Dave seriously said. “Knowing him, It’s like we haven’t been together since childhood. You know what the problem ‘bro? you love to listen to others. Look, you just saw Kyla at the mall and you held her hand, immediately you concluded that both of you are meant to be. And because these two idiots said that you are compatible and said that we can see in your eyes that you are in love with each other. You proposed immediately and you stand like a fool. One year, nine months. What? Are you going to drive these two again? TSS!”

Quinn and Henry looked at Dave. “Why, are you sure Kyla will change?” Henry asked.

“No,” Dave replied.

“No, so means, it’s ok for you that Hunter suffers for the rest of his life?” Quinn also asked.

“Neither.” We were all staring at Dave because we couldn’t get his point.

“Then what?” Henry asked annoyingly.

“When he comes home, he’ll think about it, and tomorrow he will realize all and he will end that shit relationship.” Then it laughed out loud as it staggered. “Just one-day ‘bros. One day. Too far from nine months and one year.” It was accompanied by laughter that he was almost intertwined, accompanied by the two.

I could do nothing to defend myself. I asked for their opinion and they scolded me based on what they saw. I don’t have enough reason to answer them. They are right. Not because I really am a fool about Kyla. I know because I love her so it’s not silly to call it. It’s love.

One of the reasons I hated Ley back then was because of the bad things I heard about her. I don’t know her personally, but I can already hear her name because it’s a blow to the elites all over Bulacan. Maybe because of the influence of her parents.

So I can’t really accept that she finally won when we get married. Because she used her influence to get me.

Yes, I should be proud, but I’m actually shrinking because my pride was trampled on and I was defeated by a woman. Henry is right, ego ate me because I can’t accept that Ley got what she wanted, and that was me.
