Ex-Husband's Regret

Mirror, mirror on the wall…
1 swivel around. Shocked to see Rowan standing behind me.

Could this day get any worse? I ask myself, groaning internally.

“Rowan?” I shriek, caught off guard. “What the hell are you doing here?”

Of all the times I had to bump into him, why now when I was standing in front of a sex toy shop?

This had to be the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever experienced.

“I could ask you the same thing?” He says looking behind me.

I feel my cheeks redden, because I know nothing I say will get me out of the situation. I was standing in front of the shop and its windows displayed a variety of sex toys. It was hard to shrug off what kind of store this was.

I look back at the store before facing him nervously. I don’t know why I was nervous, but I was.

“I’m here to shop for maternity clothings and buy some things for the baby,” I lie.

He looks at me. His left eyebrow raised. “In a sex shop? I don’t think you’ll find what you’re looking

for here, unless you have other things in mind”

The tilt of his mouth lets me know that he was teasing me, which was a completely new concept

to me.

Instead of answering him, I start walking in the other direction. I expected him to at least leave

me alone, but he doesn’t. Instead he falls in step with me.

“I didn’t take you for a woman who would use sex toys” he says, making me halt in my steps.

What the hell was wrong with him. Why the hell was he even bringing this up? Didn’t he get the memo that I wanted nothing to do with him? That I didn’t want him near me. It was the reason

why I walked away in the first place.

“First of all, you don’t know the type of woman I am. You never did, mainly because you thought I was beneath you or something and second of all, what’s wrong with using dildos and vibrators to

pleasure myself? I am a human being with needs, and they have to be fulfilled one way or another.

Now leave me the hell alone”
