My Sweetheart

Their separation wasn’t known in City N. The only reason Alexia knew was because she called Kathy and Kathy brought it up.

Kathy on the other hand hadn’t seen Joseph for almost half a month.

When their marriage ended, it was like their connection broke off too.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier, Kathy! This is a big deal! Divorce? Who was the crazy one? You or Joseph?”

“None.”

Kathy then told Alexia the details of what happened.

If Joseph agreed to divorce her just to keep her safe, why didn’t he find her after that?

Did he think that their relationship should end after their divorce?

If it’s like that, did he agree to accept the reality and just let it be?

It’s only her that remained in this relationship.

Kathy couldn’t help but to laugh at herself. “Alexia, I didn’t expect that we’d really divorced.”

“Are you crying, Kathy?”

Alexia panicked when soft crying noises could be heard.

She had known Kathy for so many years, but she had never seen her cry.

Now, she’s crying because of Joseph.

Kathy sniffed a few times. For some reason, tears started to flow down her cheeks.

She thought that her relationship with Joseph would remain the same after she came back to City N, but she was wrong.

He didn’t contact her, nor tried to find her.

She then realized, maybe, he would walk out of her life forever.

“Kathy, you should go and talk things out with him,” Alexia suggested.

She’s even worried after knowing that Kathy had not stepped out of the house recently.

“Didn’t he sign the papers…” Kathy muttered.

“That’s because he was forced to. He likes you so much, Kathy. He won’t want to divorce you,” Alexia consoled.
