Attracted By My Ex-wife

For Sally and Simon, it would not matter whether they went to school or not. They wouldn't face any hardship. As for Ella and Eddy, they had to go to school and someone was bound to tell what they had heard about Ella's dad. Anne would not be able to hide the truth from Eddy.

Lowering her head, Anne thought to herself, 'Eddy is still so young and not the same height as my waist yet, but he has to bear and be exposed to so much at such a young age.'

Guilt was written across Anne's face. She squatted down to get to eye level with Eddy.

"Eddy, I don't want to hide the truth from you. Do you still remember Kim?"

'Kim?' Eddy tried to recall.

Eddy immediately nodded his head. This person was the reason he lost his mother's love for two years and caused his family to break apart, over and over again. He would never forget this person. Had it not been for Kim, Bob wouldn't have died so young, and his family wouldn't be in the state they were in.

They had suffered a lot at the hands of Kim. Eddy would never forget the likes of this man.

'But...' Something had occurred to Eddy.

"Isn't Kim dead?" asked Eddy. He was quite surprised. Kim had once had a lot of power yet his life was turned upside down when he was caught for his crimes. He was sentenced to death. Kevin went to see the execution himself. When he returned, he even celebrated with a drink.

Eddy recalled of this very clearly in his mind's eye.

What he didn't understand, was why his mother would need to mention someone who was dead. Not only that, but her face was pale and reflected a feeling of angst.
