Ex-wife, Please Come Back

As the clock ticked, Alice's life was getting more disorganized. Her once perfect life was now the opposite of what it used to be. Everything was crashing before her eyes and there was little or nothing she could do to salvage the situation. Acceptance was something that one cannot choose. And because of this, Alice had no option but to accept Jacob's decision. Long after he left, Alice remained in the restaurant. She was shocked by what just transpired between them.

At that moment, she felt as if Jacob had just discarded her like an old toy that he no longer needed.

Despite the fact that she had loved him, his recent actions made all the feelings she had for him disappear within a second. Love was meant to be reciprocated by both parties involved. Of course, no one would be that stupid to keep on loving someone who didn't love them back. Thinking about how Jacob kept her in the sidelines now, Alice was despaired. In fact, she was in a dilemma!

Just now, when Jacob had mentioned her past, she felt like everything was all over. The man she loved was threatening to use her past against her. That's horrifying! What love? If Jacob loved her, he wouldn't dare to investigate her.

Now it was clear that he no longer had feelings for her. But how? How could he stop loving her?

As these thoughts ran through her mind, Alice's head began to ache. She then clutched it in pain. It was as if hundreds of drums were playing in her head. 'Is the baby a curse or a blessing?' She smiled bitterly with uncertainty written on her face.

'Jacob, this is your fault. You forced me. I hope you won't regret it, ' she thought.

Just then, a new wave of determination filled Alice up. The bitter smile faded from her face. The tears in her eyes also disappeared. This battle hadn't come to an end. On the contrary, this was just the beginning. Jacob always knew how much she loved him.

She reasoned that since he wouldn't reciprocate her love, it was about time she stopped caring about him. Alice was not an understanding woman. She couldn't just sit and watch him be happy with another lady.

All what Jacob had brought her was just unpleasant treatment. This could be likened to the most painful torture in the world and the result of that was much more sorrowful than death.

Alice looked at her phone in a daze. After a few seconds, she picked it up and dialed Thompson's number.
