Attracted By My Ex-wife

The morning sun shone through the half-opened windows, brightening Anne's pale skin.

Fine strands of hair fell upon her forehead. The fatigue on his face was obvious.

Anne had fallen asleep out of exhaustion. She had thought that she wouldn't wake up until late in the morning, but the moment the sun rays touched her skin, she immediately woke up.

She felt weak, like a newborn child that was just opening its eyes to the world.

"Are you all right, Anne? It's nine o'clock now. You don't look so good," Sam asked with concern.

Anne shook her head in reply and did not want to say anything to him. She felt strangely tired, even though she had just woken up from a good night's rest. Perhaps, it was her depression and helplessness that caused her to feel that way.

Seeing that she was not uttering a single word to him, Sam was naturally concerned.

Considering her recent issues and her performance, he figured out that she might be too stressed out.

"I'm okay," Anne finally replied in a low voice.

Although she had been resting for an entire night, she couldn't help but feel tired.

"Please go to have a check-up. I am so worried about you," Sam said.

Anne responded with a frown. Without wasting another moment, Sam immediately dragged her to see a psychiatrist.

The hospital was very quiet that day. As Anne waited outside the mental health department, she saw that it was relatively emptier compared to the other departments.

She felt a bit reluctant to see the doctor, but Sam was unwilling to let her go.

"What can I do for you, Mr. Sam?" the psychiatrist who was on duty asked Sam.

"She needs some assistance, so could you please check her condition?" Sam asked.

After the consultation, the doctor said to him with a smile, "She's fine. I think she's just had a terrible week. She is going to need some time to adjust to the situation. You can rest assured that she will be happier after a while."

Sam heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at Anne, he wondered if getting out of depression could really be that hard.

"You heard her right, I'm fine. Let's get out of here already," Anne whispered to him.

"I can see that you're still upset about losing Kevin. Do you really love him that much?"

Upon hearing Sam's sudden mention of Kevin, Anne immediately looked into his eyes with a puzzled expression. However, Sam could clearly see that she was broken on the inside even though she sounded indifferent.

Anne lowered her gaze. She was not in the mood to talk, so she decided to keep quiet about her feelings.

"There might be some mistake in your medical history that was submitted to your doctor," Sam said when she remained silent.

Anne immediately raised her head and looked at him. "What am I supposed to do?" she asked.
